REVISION SEEN
INEVITABLE ON
INCOME TAXES
Even G. 0. P. Conservative
Is Convinced That
Couzens Is Right.
Bp Scrippt-Hottnrd V eictpaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, April 29.—“ When
the next congress convenes, ths
sentiment for revision in income
taxes, such as suggested by Jim
Couzens and Bob La Follette, will be
so great that all the administra
tion's horses and all the administra
tion’s men will be unable to prevent
passage of such law. The measure
will pass both branches of congress
by an overwhelming vote.”
This prediction has been made to
administration leaders by a con
servative Republican senator whose
allegiance to President Hoover never
has been questioned.
Senator Couzens of Michigan,
after spending the recess of congress
studying income tax collections for
every year since the World war, has
announced that he will advocate in
the next congress a drastic revision
of the income tax to increase the
burden on the wealthy.
Gift Tax to Come Back
He proposes restoration of the
gift tax, abandoned in 1925, and a
return to the 1921 scale of income
taxes, to meet the $800,000,000 de
ficit. Although he has not an
nounced details of his plan, Senator
La Follette is urging a large upward
revision of income taxes in the
higher brackets.
Necessity for such tax increase so
will appeal to the new congress, in
the opinion of the conservative lead
er quoted above, that its enactment
by the next congress never will be a
doubtful issue.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Treasury
Mellon, Undersecretary Ogden Mills
and Senator David A. Reed of
Pennsylvania are agreeing with a
recent announcement by President
Hoover that taxes need not be
raised If the next congress is eco
nomical in its expenditures.
lowan Joins Couzens
“It will make no difference
whether the next congress is eco
nomical or not,” this unnamed sen
ator continued. “The money al
ready has been spent and, as Cou
zens says, the bills have to be paid.
Senator Couzens’ plan just has
obtained an influential advocate in
Representative C. William Ram
seyer of lowa, Republican member
of the ways and means committee,
who is being discussed as a candi
date for Speaker of the house.
Ramsever opposes further borrow
ing to meet the deficit.
$50,000 SUIT AGAINST
LESLIE AIRED AGAIN
U. S. Appeals Bench Takes Gresham
Case Under Advisement.
Suit brought by Otto Gresham
against Governor Harry G. Leslie

representative, seeking $50,000 which
was dismissed here by Judge Fred
L. Wham, for lack of jurisdiction,
has been taken under advisement
by the United States circuit court of
appeals, Chicago dispatches declare.
Refusal of Leslie and Harris to
entertain a petition to impeach sev
eral Marion county judges is the
basis of the suit.

judge here, declared that the federal
district court had no jurisdiction in
the case.
The appeal was heard by Judges
Evan A. Evans, Walter C. Lindley
and George T. Page.

inent and wealthy nose and throat
specialist, who was returned home
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Three former members of the
Cuckoo gang were said to be hunted.
At the Kelley residence Dr. Kelley
refused to comment upon whether a
ransom was paid for his release
It was rumored that his wealthy
wife paid the kidnapers SIOO,OOO.
Dr. Kelley returned home after
he was released on an isolated road
way near East St. Louis, HI. He
said he had been taken to several
places while in the hands of the
captors. He declared he was kept
blindfolded during his captivity and
would be unable either to identify
his kidnapers or the places he was
held.
It was learned that the kidnapers
used force only once on the doctor,
that when pressing a gun against
his head and ordering him to write
a ransom note to his wife.
In an interview with newspaper
men, Kelley denied having written
to his wife.
