It appears that the legislators are turning a deaf ear to appeala of the Treasury for quick action. The indications are that they are awaiting the public's reaction for the proposals of the Administration for a drastic revision of the internal revenue lews. All the hullabaloo about this country skidding rapidly into an active part in the war cannot move the "people's choice" from their determination to ascertain what the folks back home think about the ways aad means of paying for the enormous defense expenditures. The peculiar feature is that their motives are not entirely of a selfish political nature bet more in a spirit of fair play giving the taxpayers a' voice in policy, making which vitally affects their welfare. Many so"ops are in their districts for Manorial Day speeches in an effort to sift sentiment. That the actual and potential classes of taxpayers are disturbed over the pending proposal which will tax their income from the first of this year is revealed in reports from all sections of the country. Merchants and other sales' groups discern a note of caution among the citizens even those more prosperous than usual. The explanation is that these taxpayers are saving certain portions of their salaries and wages against the day when Uncle Sam comes knocking at the door with a demand for contributions to the state. People who have fixed commitments for mortgages and life insurance are putting adequate sums aside as reserves and consequently reducing their current puchases, which are quickly reflected in merchants' reports of sales. It is believed that the House Committee on Ways and NEWS The Alexander Laapbar company at Crystal Lake waa broken into tome time Sunday, May lK, and cash and endorsed stolen.

Indications that a building boom sponsored by the Omar Baking company of Milwaukee will add from thirty to forty residences in the vicinity of Wauconda were reported Friday. Company officials in Milwaukee announced that the company is negotiating to have a building conoern arrange the construction program under terials is not on the horizon. In some quarters it is claimed that Mr. Roosevelt could help solve the problem by a strong-arm policy of keeping down the strikes in defense plants. Talk is free in Congress that organized labor is running against public opinion in attempting to gain wage increases and power through enforced collective bargaining in a crisis. Industry is likewise - criticized for insisting on producing the usual volume of civilian business when their resources should, wherever possible, be turned to defense items. Occasionally a cry is raised to curtail non-defense spending for governmental agencies long forgotten by the public. So great is the concern over sabotage of the huge Navy building program that special authorization has been asked to employ approximately 300 secret agents exclusively on naval matters. The House has appropriated three million dollars for this activity. The -investigators will be drawn from experts in private life and other government agencies and assigned to a plant-protection force for naval shore establishments.

It seems we have a convoy system within our continental boundaries in which the Navy is not participating. The Defense Housing Co-ordinator told a House committee a few days ago that a dispensation had been obtained from the Interstate Commerce Commission for the transportation of housing trailers "in convoys over the road." The arrangement permits hauling the trailers from factory to large concentrations of government trailer camps without licenses. Although Congress appropriated five millions for trailers, the defense group wants another fifteen million to extend their emergency housing program. The Farm Security Administration * is handling the matter of trailer camp sites and sewer connections.
