tween the retiring and coming ad-
ministrations on matter of foreign
Policy particularly as concerns the
war debt problem will be made in a
conference here Friday between Pres-
ident Hoover and President-elect
Reosevelt
It was stated on high authoritc
that the Hoover-Roosevelt talk would
be confined to foreign affairs No
domestic problems are to be discuss-
ed The purpose of the talk is to co-
ordinate policy on diplomatic matters
in which both administrations are eq-
ually interested
The men will meet at 11 a m Fri-
day It will be their second confer-

They discussed war debts at the
White House on Nov 22 last but
were unable to agree on a united for-

While the question of war debts
and the problem of defaulling debtors
will form a large port Vf the WWI'
conversations it was believed prob-

problems including the far pastern
situation would be discussed
Mr Roosevelt will stop in Wash-

arrival he is to confer with congres-

FURTHER SLASHES
FOR REAL ESTATE r
VALUATIONS SEEN
Proponents of Murray's Income
Tax Bill Appear Before
House Committee Today
OKLAHOMA CITY Jan 18—(1P)
Oklahoma real estate valuations face
a drastic further slash of about $180-
000000 in 1933 tax commissioners to-
day told the house revenue and taxa-
tion committee in support of the plan
to raise new revenue through the
Murray income tax bill
A statewide movement for anoth-
er 20 per cent reduction in property
values following a similar cut last
year was revealed for the first time
by Commissioner W D Humphrey as
he pleaded for new tax sources to
bolster sinking revenues
Proponents of the revived Murray
bill lambasted bankers insurance men
the citizens' league and others who
for a week have criticized the tax
bill
May Vote Friday
Chairman A N Leecraft of the
houRe committee said the bill may be
ready for a house vote by Friday
Beginning last November county
assessors have been trooping to the
capitol with pleas for further valua-
tion cuts Humphrey said He told
how citizens unable to pay taxes
are flood'ng assessors' offices with
similar demands
The tax commission vice chairman
indicated that if the movement gath-
ers more momentum the huge reduc-
tion is certain He demanded to know
what would be done to fill the tax
gap
Real estate valuations in the 77
counties have been cut from $1178-
to29175 in 1930 to 61093950144 in
1931 and to 6881381422 in 1931ree-

Cleanliness Is
Disastrous For
Local Attorney
MM
"Water should be used only for
navigation and cleansing" has always
been a theory subscribed to by some
persons but since yesterday it appears
likely that Walter Matthews local
attorney will be inclined to favor its
use for cleansing only with strict
resexyations
Matthews' client D C Barton who
was suing the Columbia Finance com-
Pany r stated that he had turned over
his receipts which proved his claim
that he had been charged excessive
interest to his attorney The re-
ceipts were evidently an important
Part of the evidence As the case was
being concluded Matthews was sworn
in as a witness and testified as to
what had become of the receipts He
said:
"I put the receipts in an envelope
put them in my pants pocket and took
them home My wife decided that
my pants needed washing and put
them in the machine and washed
them That's what happened to the
receipts"

two hours deliberation brought in a

GRAY INTRODUCES
SALES TAX PLANS
TO HOUSE TODAY
Bill Sponsored by Payne County
Representative Would Put
Tax on Many LuxAries
OKLAHOMA CITY Jan 18---(19)
—A drastic sales tax on cigarets ci-
gars cosmetics drinks and syrups
is estimated will raise $3000000 to
$5000000 annually was resented to
the house today by Rep J T Gray
Stillwater and other administration
backers
Articles tto be taxed and the rates:
On all sales if cigars 20 per cent
of the standard retail price
On cigarettes 4 1-2 cents on each
package of 20 or $225 a 1000
On cosmetics 10 per cent of retal
price
On all bottled drinks 20 per cent
of retail price
On all syrups which includes foun
thin drinks using syrups 50 per cent
of the standard wholesale phice
The article would be taxed but once
with payment evidence by affixing of
stamps furnished by the state tax
commission
The hill which with the Murray in-
come tax bill forms the gist of the
administration program to raise more
revenue provides that 95 per cent of
all revenue raised would be distribut-
ed quarterly to common school dis-
tricts on a scholastic per capita ba-
sis The measure is a restricted sales
tax and is not based on the Mississippi
Plan
Thp apportionment of revenue
would bp made by the tax commis-
sion on March 31 June 30 Septem-
ber 30 and December 31 of each year
The drastic new measure is aimed
at mounting school diArict debts It
provides that each district receiving
rny of the tax money "shall first use
it to pay and retire all outstanding
warrants which have been legally is-
sued and whi(h have been outstand-
ing nnd unpaid for at least one year"
Districts which have paid all out-
itanding warrants and have accumu-
lated funds sufficient to pay current
warrants would credit the money to
sinking funds
In districts with no bonded or out
standing- warrants unpaid for one
year would be required to use the
revenues to reduce ad valorem taxes
The penalty provided for violation
is one year in the state penitentiary
up to five years and a IIIPXiMUTI1
fine of $1000 or both
