PAGE TWO Resolution Asking Government Return To People Killed Texas House Tables Measure After Bitter Argument AUSTIN, Tex. Amid stormy debate the Texas House of Representatives Tuesday killed a resolution asking Congress to put forth its best efforts toward restoring government to the people. 'Consideration of the measure, tabled by a vote of 83 to 31, provoked: bitter controversy involving charges that the resolution was "dangerous propaganda" and counter assertions it aimed only at preserving a principle of government for which men are dying on battlefronts. By Rep. E.

T. Bond of Terrell and others, the resolution declared that the people should elect a Congress dedicated to "re-establishing the spirit of Americanism through the laws it passes." It the present Congress apparently has abandoned this custom by surrendering powers to various bureaus, boards and commissions with the result that crops have been destroyed, citizens arc threatened and harrassed by bureaucratic orders and the domestic policy of government has become one of destruction. Opponents heaped sharp criticism on the measure, Rep. W. W.

Bricl- gtrs of El Paso declaring most of its language was ''rubbish." 'Threatens Existence' "The idea the Legislature complaining about the way the federal government is being run when we are in a war which threatens our very existence," shouted Hep. Jo Ed Win free of Houston, father of sons in the sen-ices. "Winlree's attitude surprises me. In 'no -way does the resolution take a slap at the war effort," protested Rep. Houjton McMurry of Henrietta.

"The most dangerous propaganda is the theory that because are at war vfc cannot criticize the government," he added.

promise proposals to the Ruml skip-a-year icnome tax thatj would have abated lesser amounts of 1942 tax liability were rejected Tuesday by the House Ways and Means Committee, thus failing to break the deadlock on pay as you go taxation. The plans rejected Tuesday were: 1. By Representative Robertson (D-Va.) to abate the six per cnt normal and first bracket 13 per cent surtax on the first $2,000 of 1942 income for all taxpayers. This would erase completely the J942 federal income tax obligations for 70 per cent of the taxpayers: 90 pea- cent of taxpayers then would be put on a current payment basis through a withholding tax to be deducted from earnings. The ten per cent in the higher income brackets would continue paying their taxes as usual.

2. By Dougnton CONO, to apply the much softer 1941 rates and exemptions to 1942 income and let the taxpayers amortize the remaining 1942 obligations over a relatively short period of time while simultaneously remitting on taxes for the current year. This would wipe out the 1942 tax altogether for a large number of persons and reduce the obligation for others. The committeees action left in doubt the future ot pay as you go taxation. However, committee members indicated they would turn again to a proposal by Representative Disney (D-Okla.) and (R-CalifJ to continue the present system of collecting taxes in one year on the basis ot income the previous year, but with a 20 per cent withholding levy against the taxable portions oC wage? and salareis through weekly or monthly dcducations from pay envelops and salary checks.

"My resolution says no more than the remarks of Hutton Sum- nei-f, which were applauded by the members of this House." Rep.

Files of Wnxahachie took exception tn Bond's remarks, asserting: "I did not applaud.
