CHAIN STOI i
TAX NEXT ON
SOLONDOCKET
AUSTIN. April A—UP>—Oil and
Has conservation, appropriations, a
chain store tax and utilities reg
ulation held prominent places on
tha Texas legislature stage Monday
with adjournment of the general
session possibly only one montn
away.
Pending business in the senate
was renewed debate over a bill ex
tending for another two years tne
law permitting the railroad com
mission to consider market demand
An prorating oil production, lac
house already had passed the mea
sure.
First on the program of the house
was the appropriation bill lor state
departments, in the event it super -
sedeo the suspension calendar.
Chairman Homer Leonard of the
appropriations committee was de
sirous of keeping the legislators on
appropriations.
Leading the suspension calendar,
however, was the bill by Repre
sentative John A. Atchison of
Gainesville to tax gross receipts
on chain stores according to the
number of stores in the chain.
It was supported by the adminis
tration, but doubts as to its con
stitutionality raised the possibility
that tile house would get behind
tiie bill of Representative Jesse
James of Cameron levying a tax
according to the number of units
in the chain. The latter principle
has been upheld by the United
States Supreme Court.
Second on the house calendar was
the biil by Representative Lon E.
Alsup of Carthage to set up ma
chinery for administration of re
demption of county lateral road
bonds from the state gasoline tax.
It was a companion to a bill in
creasing the gasoluie tax to five
cents.
Of much interest was a hearing
net for Monday night before the
house oil. gas and mining commit
tee on a bill to establish a state
corporation which would construct
a gas pipe line from the Panhandle
to St Louis and Detroit
The administration utility regu
lation bill was set for special order
in the house Tuesday.
To date 69 bills had been passed
and filed with the governor. One
proposed constitutional amendment,
to provide free textbooks for all
school children of scholastic age,
had been acted on by both houses.

Hitler May Try For
Peace With Hero Of
War on His Birthday
BERLIN. April 8. <£*)— Whether
Reichsfuehrer Hitler will go to Tut
ting in Bavaria Tuesday for the
:elebrations marking the 7(1th birth -
Say of General Erich Ludendorf
was a question many a German
asked Monday. .
Announcement of plans for the
ceremonies honoring the veteran
World War strategist, who only re
cestly has been restored to official
favor, gave impetus to the specula
tion. ,
The Reich press has been ordered
to publish only favorable accounts of
the day’s events. The Reichswehr
has received instructions to hold
parades and turn out for eulogies
in honor of the old quartermaster
general of Kaiser Wilhelm’s armies.
Crown Prince Frederick Wilhelm
has been designated by Geneal Wer
ner Von Blomberg. minister of de
fense. to convey the Reichswehr'?
greetings to Ludendorff. In many
quarters it is forecast he will be giv
en the title of Field Marshal-General
as a birthday present.,
If Der Fuehrer does appear to
person, the gesture will signify that
someone has done yeoman sevice
in patching up the decade-old differ
ences between the two former poli
tical comrades.
Hitler and Ludendorff marched
side by side during the illfated beer
cellar putsch of 1933. They faced
court together afterward Hitler be
ing convicted and sentenced to Jail
and Ludendorff winning acquittal.

bitterly anti-Catholic, wanted a
plank inserted In the Nad platform
declaring war on the Catholic
church, but the Nad leader re
fused. ,
Hitler, too, wanted the Nazi
movement built up Into a political
party, but the veteran militarist,
disagreeing, declared after the
Brown 8hirts came into power
that Germany would be divided
into preferred party members and
non-members.
