Ford Opposes U S Profits Tax as Targeting Ford
Detroit May 7 Ford says proposed U S profits tax is ramshackle legislation aimed at independent businesses. He labels the tax as a punishment for producers, arguing it would push firms to Wall Street control and worsen unemployment while pledging higher wages only after the strike situation ends. Ford claims government aid has failed to raise production or employment.

Leaders Oppose U S Erecting Any Dirigibles
Washington May 7 leaders in Congress voiced near unanimity that the Hindenburg disaster would curb government dirigible construction. Secretary Swanson offered no firm naval policy while talk of new airship programs dwindled since the Macon crash in 1935. Admiral Cook noted helium advantages, Luther urged caution yet called the ship splendid, and German envoy Von Neurath expressed horror yet interest in two more ships.
