"It appears you are giving the same kind'of testimony here that you gave at the Griffin trial,” the judge told her. Attorneys for Taylor said they will appeal his sentence to the state su preme court. Move on to Link Bonus, Tax Cut Modified Mellon Bill Sought to Prevent “Stripping,” of Treasury. H.v International Neva Service, Washington, Feb. 23.—Alarmed over»the possibility of "stripping'’ the treasury If taxes are reduced too much, congressional advocates of a soldiers’ bonus today struggled to join the two measures in a common Interest. Republican Reader Rongworth and other regular republicans hope for compromise between the regulars and a sufficient numher of Insurgents to insure acceptance of a modified Mel lon tax plan. This would permit pas sage of a republican tax reduction Mil. The compromise suggested by Rongworth was 2 and 6 per cent nor mal and 3714 per cent surtax, maxi mum. Ra Guardia and the other In surgents voted for the Garner plan of 2 and 4 per cent normal and 44 per cent surtax, maximum. Hr Aseoeteted Frees. Washington. Feb. 23. — Further changes in the revenue hill sought by democrats and supported by some republican leaders again slowed up its progress in the house today with the spirited debate that has marked its consideration continuing. Aa a result of delays encountered yesterday, little hope was held by Chairman Gregn of the ways and means committee In charge of the measure for the republicans that tt could be brought up for a final vote Tuesday, as had been planned. It was decided, however, to hold the measure before the house without Interruption If a vote appears possible a little lat er In the week. Considerable time was spent yes terday on an amendment wjilch was approved by a vote of democrats and republican insurgents to open tax returns to special congressional com mittees and the house ways and means and the senate finance com mltteee. Another amendment adopt ed would make the corporation tax returns available to state officers, up on request of the governor, regard less whether the state lmpoees an In come tax, as the law now requires for such Inspection. Representative Longworth, repub lican leader, continued optimistic that a definite break in the ranks of the 1" republicans who voted fdr the Garner income rates had developed a^ a result of his new compromise of fer, but both republican Insurgent, and democratic spokesmen maintained they would hold to the Garner rates on a final vote on the measure.
