"The convention impressed me as being unusunlly wide in scope," Mrs. Passmore said.

"Great credit must be given to the two hostess clubs for offeringx a convention fully as clabornte In detail as the state convention and equally rich in its choice of exceptional speakers."

The district went on record as being firmly opposed to the entrance of the United States into the European war, Mrs. Passmore said, and sent a copy of the resolution to the members' representatives and senators In Congress. "The United States has the most complicated tax system known in history," Mrs- Louis Levin declared In her paper on "Tax Problems." Complex Tax Siructuro Radical changes in the tax structure have been made in the past 25 years, Mrs. Levin said. She maintained that a historical perspective is needed for a true understanding of today's taxes.

She discussed the development of federal, state and local taxes, direct and indirect. Levin divided the history of the federal tax into three periods: first from .1700 to 3S60, when taxes rose from five million to 60 million; second, from 1SGO to 1914, when they climbed from GO million to 672 million; and third, from 191-1 to tha present day when they reached 6.018 million. She described the changes in sources of revenue during the different periods and pointed out that approximately 75 per cent of the 1938 federal tax revenue was derived from taxes not levied 25 years ngo. Mrs. Levin also divided the history of state taxes into three periods: the colonial period, from 1789 to 1890; the modern period, from 1890 to 191-5; and the last 25 years, when state collections climbed from 307 million to 3,913 million.

JP Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt left with more than 3.000 Girl Scouts today her advice on the role of young women in a "free" nation at peace. "To remain free," she declared last night at the 25th annual convention of the national council of Girl Scouts, "you must take an interest in all the problems that come before your country." Mrs. Roosevelt told the Girl Scouts; "You have time to train yourselves to meet emergencies that may arise in a world that is none too stable.

"You must think, too, of what you can do to help other peopls throughout the world women, children and families like yours, now living under conditions" they probably never dreamed they would see." At Mrs. Roosevelt's right hand was Mrs. Herbert Hoover, in Girl Scout uniform. Mrs. Roosevelt wore simple black dress.
