Oleo Tax Supporters,
Foes Intensify Battle
As House Debate Nears
By Chalmers M. Roberts
A last-minute battle of the
mimeograph machines was under
way today, preparatory to House de
bate Monday on a bill to repeal the
Federal taxes on oleomargarine.
Both sides were flooding news
paper offices with statements on
how repeal of the taxes would either
ruin the Nation’s dairy industry or
save the consumer the bother of
mixing in the color.
The appeals from butter and mar
garine backers seem unlikely to
change, any votes, however. A ma
jority of the House membership
218 members—signed a petition to
bring the Rivers repeal bill to the
floor, over Agriculture Committee
opposition, and it is generally con
ceded the bill will pass the House.
May Vote Wednesday.
The vote may not come until Wed
nesday, although the bill will come
up shortly after the House meets
at noon Monday. The Pennsylvania
primary election takes place Tues
day and members of Congress from
that State, who are split in the
fight, want to be home to vote.
Representative Johnson, Republi
can, of Illinois and a member of
the Agriculture Committee, who
voted to shelve repeal legislation,
told reporters yesterday its passage
would result in “butter-legging”—
substitution of margarine for butter
without telling the buyer or con
sumer in restaurants.
He also presented a letter written
to him by F. W. Hoffman, president
of the Cudahy Packing Co., a mar
garine maker. The letter said Cud
ahy opposes repeal of the 10-cent
tax on colored margarine (the rea
son most housewiyes buy it uncol
ored and mix in the color them
selves). It was brought out at the
Agriculture hearings, however, that
Cudahy has been the chief bene
flciary of the new plastic bag in
which much margarine now is
packed.
Andrcsen Flans Amendment.
Representative Andre sen. Repub
lican, of Minnesota, who has been
the leader of the House dairy in
terests, distributed mimeographed
copies of a speech on the House
floor Thursday, declaring that
“American housewives tire being
used as a front by the cotton South
and the oleo manufacturers to in
crease prices on cottonseed oil and
profits on oleo.” I
Mr. Andresen said he would have
some "veiy interesting” amend
ments to offer on the floor.
From the margarine mimeograph
machines came a statement by Paul
T. Truitt, head of the Margarine
Manufacturers Association, praising
the New Jersey State Legislature
for repealing that State’s ban on
the sale of colored margarine. The
act was signed by Gov. Driscoll this
week. *
This leaves 22 States with similar
laws on their books. One of them is
Maryland. Mr. Truitt said he was
hopeful that, if the Federal taxes
are repealed, many other States
will remove the bans.
Package License Transfer
Refused, Second Granted
The Alcohol*: Beverage Control
Board has refused to transfer the
license of one package store but
granted another, it was announced
today.
The application for a transfer
from 4401 Fourteenth street N.W.,
to 3548 East Capitol street was
granted to Lillie and Abraham
Atlas. The transfer was opposed
by a group of citizens and church
people, but the board said most of
the residents in the East Capitol
street area did not object to the
transfer.
The application for a transfer of
a package store license held by the
Ambassador Drug Store, Inc., fr°nj
1400 K street N.W. to 1432 K street
N W. was refused by the board to
prevent the concentrating of liquor
stores on K street.

5 to 15 Years Given
Robber in Assault
On Couple at Station
Charles W. Taylor, 21. of the 200
block of D street N.W., yesterday
was sentenced by Justice David A.
Pine of District Ccfurt to serve from
5 to 15 years for assaulting and
robbing Mr. and Mrs. Howard V. i
Jones of the 3300 block of Blaine:
street N.E., last November.
Taylor, who is colored, was found
guilty on April 14 by a jury of rob
bing Mr. Jones of his automobile,
eye glasses, a hat, gloves and $2 in
cash. The jury also found Taylor
guilty of robbing Mrs. Jones of a
handbag, three rings and $4 in addi
tion to assaulting both of them.
Taxi Robber Sentenced.
Russell L. Perry, 21, colored, also
of the 200 block of D street N.W.,
indicted with Taylor, found'to be of
unsound mind. The Jonses were ac
costed by the two men in their car
at Union Station.
In another sentence today, Jus
tice Pine also gave Ronald K. Payne,
17, colored, of no fixed address, from
5 to 15 years for robbing a taxi
cab driver of $5 and his cab and
for an attempted robbery of a gaso
line service station in-the 3100 block
of Georgia avenue N.W. last Feb
ruary.
An attendant at the station, Free
man E. Cobble, was wounded in the
arm by a bullet during a tussle over
a gun with Payne.
Added Sentence Given.
Melvin T. Eckloff, 22, who, on
March 12, was sentenced in District
Court to serve from two years and
eight, months to eight years for his
part in the theft last October of
liquor valued at more than $4,600,
yesterday was given an additional
6 to 18 months for hitting one of
his co-defendants with a chair.
The added sentence was given by
Justice Richmond B. Keech, who
also imposed the earlier sentence.
Eckloff had pleaded guilty to hit
ting William H. Whitehair. 22, of
the 100 block of Eleventh street
N.E., who turned principal Gov
ernment witness in connection with
the liquor theft. The assault took
place in the cell block in District
Court after he was .sentenced in
the liquor theft. Whitehair in
March received the lightest sentence
of four mien in the liquor theft—
one to three years.
The liquor was stolen from a truck
parked in the 1900 block of New
York avenue N.E.
