New Revised Tax Bill Is Now Ready
Washington April 1 The new 1 127 billion tax bill revised from President Roosevelt proposals ready for House action next week. Democrats on the House Ways and Means committee backed it as drafted by a sub committee. The measure seeks to balance the budget with reform but would fall short of White House revenue goals by about 543 million over three years. It retains windfall levy ideas and pending processing taxes on certain commodities while extending existing corporate levies. The bill faces questions on how closely it meets the President’s revenue demands and AAA deficit wipeout.

Act To Reduce Relief Cost County Commissioners
County commissioners dismissed Nelson Pippert of Amherst as relief investigator due to the state relief law's 5 percent administration cap. Pippert oversaw 116 relief cases. Administration must now be done by township trustees. The move targets trimming costs toward the 4 percent limit. March relief costs totaled about 17,000, with administration around 1,300, significantly above allowances. Cities and county lack funds to cover the excess, risking reduced state relief funding if budgets cannot be aligned.

Wasteful projects and a fading Florida canal scheme
Washington notes chronic waste as 127.9 million dollars vanished into long stalled plans for Paesamaquoddr and Florida Canals. The administration abandons one and a half billion relief dollars, deeming none to fund these. The ship canal idea and tide harnessing are called costly boondoggles, leaving a Maine coast village scar and a Florida stake job as remnants of the President's pet schemes.
