Roosevelt Signs Record-Breaking Defense Tax Bill
America to Start Paying War m
Nearly 5 Million New Taxpayers Created by Boost
RAISES $3,553,000,000
Called First Down Payment as More Costs Appear
By T. r. HEYNOLDS
Hyde Park, N. Y.. Sept. 20. (UP) —President Roosevelt signed the 13,353.000,000 tax bill today and Amaricana began paying mora of tha budget-shattering bill for the mighty defense and rearmament program.
Most of the heavy taxes do not become efTective until Oct. 1. but Inheritance and some other levies became applicable at 1:15 p. m.. EDT. when Mr. Roosevelt afflxed his signature to the record-break¬ ing measure In the spacious library of Hyde Park House.
Signature of the bill meant that America waa beginning its first "down paj-ment" on the costs cf transforming this countr>''s econ¬ omy into an "arsenal of democ- lacy." It, however, was only a "down payment"—Congress already ik starting preliminary diieuaslens I ^n a new revenue bill which will ^Ig even deeper into the pockets of the av-rage American for reve¬ nue to mert the mats of this coun¬ try's part in the world conflict.
Only tbe Beginning
Congressional flaeal experts ad¬ mitted that tile heavy levies were "only the beginning." But even though the new taxes were but a start, they hit both poor and rich alike. Both the Individual tax¬ payer and corporations will be re¬ quired under the new schedulea to pay Increased levies on Income, in addition to meeting the new liigh  excise and  retail sales taxes.
"Sub.si.'tencc income." previously ileemert unworthy of taxation, now i>i*oome!( .oubjcrt to the federal levy. The exemption for single persons ia dropped from »*00 to .$750 for inrnmr lax, and "heads of families" get only a $1,.V)0 exemption rather than   the  previous exemption.
Treaaury and congressional fiscal experta eatimate revenue from the new schedules  as  follows:

By JOHN >IIEIXER
Sofia, Sept. 20. (UP)-Bulgarian euthorities tonight ordered all dance halls, cafes, bars and other places of amusement closed at midnight "in view of the situa¬ tion."
(The dispatch, presumably be¬ cause of atrict censorship, did not explain "the situation." However, diapatchea from Sofia today have hinted authorities face a ticklish internal Bituation, preaumably due lo widespread sympathy within the country for Russia.) Hear ot Martial Law
(The London radio, as heard by the United Press listening post in New York, reported tonight that martial law had been proclaimed in  Bulgaria.)
The curfew order followed a statement by Bulgarian quartera that Bulgar military precautions are intended to cope with "impor¬ tant Internal queationa" rather than in preparation for any move againat Russia.
(The Columbia Broadcasting Sya¬ tem quoted the British radio as re¬ porting Bulgaria has declared a state of emergency and that Premier Bogdan Filoff announced "Bulgaria will adhere atrictly tn her policy of friendship snd sup¬ port for the Axis powers.")

FARLEY SEES MENACE AND CALLS FOR UNITY
Syracuse, N. Y., Sept. 20. (UP)— Former Postmaster General Jamea A. Farley asserted tonight that "we are menaced and we must close our ranks."
"If we have learned anything In the last two years," he said, "we liave learned that mere words will not help us. We must make an honest all-out effort Anything less will endanger our liberty and our very lives. . . .
"In a world where force alone :alks, it would be folly to rely on ,vords."
Farley, who is chairman of the .New York Democratic state com¬ mittee, spoke at a testimonial din¬ ner In hia honor by the Democratic Rural County Chairmen's Associa¬ tion.
He denounced persons who "en¬ couraged racial and religious hatreds" In an effort to "deatroy the unity of our people" and in¬ voked the "fighting spirit ot our ancestors."
"There must be a moratorium on easy living," Farley continued. "I believe that capital and labor will forego the luxury of unneceaaary squabbles lest they wear out the patience of the American public. Defenae  comes first."
Before he spoke, the state Demo¬ cratic committee adopted a reso¬ lution pledging support to Presi¬ dent Roosevelt and calling on "loyal Democrats" to aupport can¬ didates of the Democratic party chosen   in  th» recent  primaries.
The commlttea's action waa in¬ terpreted as a plea for support of Kings County District Attorney William O'Dwyer In hU race against Mayor F. H. L,aOuardia in the New York City Mayoralty cam- psifO.

Berlin, Sept 20. (UP)—DNB, the offlcial news agency, tonight an¬ nounced the arrest of nine Chileans in Berlin, Paris and Vienna during the last few days, subjecting Ger¬ man relations with South American nations to new strains.
(It had been reported esriier in the week that an undisclosed num¬ ber of Chileans had been arrested, apparently in retaliation for the arrest in Chile of 32 persons on charges of engaging in Nazi activi¬ ties.) Papers Threaten Rupture
Berlin morning papers, at the same time, launched a sharp attack against Argentina and warned that German-Argentine diplomatic rela¬ tions would undergo revision it the government did not disown anti- Nazi investigationa of Paul Da¬ monte Taborda, Argentine deputy.
The press flayed the activities of tha Taborda committee, charging that it was "on Roosevelt's pay¬ roll."

Reicti War Flag Is Reported over Ukraine Capital
Nazis Say Soviet Troops Trapped And Russian Cavalry Turned Back From Effort to Fight Way Out; Germans Starting to Clear Path For Naval Attack on Leningrad
By FREDERIC K C. OECHSNER
Berlin, Sept. 20 (UP)—.\ Nazi communique today claimed !4urrendei- of the Soviet garrison at Kiev, capture of two Baltic inlanda and a foothold on a third in a blasting drive to clear the »tea approaches to Leningrad and expose the Red Banner Baltic Fleet to naval attack in the (julf of Finland.
The new operation against the besieged fortress of Len¬ ingrad was launched as the German armies of the soutli were reported slashing forward toward Kharkov and th« Donets industrial basin.
In Kiev and the great (ierman encirclement are« that extends for 12.^ miles east of the Ukraine capital, shattered Soviet forces, Nazi sources said, are being mopped up 8ys> tematically in relentless fighting.
The official news ajjency DNB claimed that Soviet forces, trapped east of tiie Dnieper bend, have heen beaten back in per.sistent attempts to break out of the German "iron ring." Several Russian cavalry squadrons were .said to be attacking repeatedly in an attempt to find a hole through the German linea but in every case were repulsed with the aid of Stuka .<!quadron8.

The British sent the Royal Air Force in a massive air offensive against German-held Europe Satur¬ day night in the apparent hope of easing the pressure on the hard- pressed Russian army. British bombera and fighters swept over Europe by the hundreds in daylight forays. London believed the air attacks were the RAF's biggest..
Berlin admitted that huge air battles, of a scope comparable to the great RAF-Luftwaffe combats of last September were waged dur¬ ing the day. This time, however, il wus the British on the offensive and the battles were over France and Nazi territory. Naaia Claim  Kiev
Tho need for relaxation on Nazi pressure on the Russian front was apparent in reports trom Beriln and sparse dispatches from Mos¬ cow. The Germans claimed that Kiev was being mopped up rapidly and that few Red army troops still were fighting following the claimed surrender ot the city's garrison after the supposed flight of the soviet high command.
The Russians had not yet ad¬ mitted the fall of Kiev, but dis¬ patches from Moscow obviously were preparing the public tor the news.
The huge new Nazi encirclement ring that extends to the approach¬ es of the Donets industrial basin was being drawn tighter. German detachments were pounding toward Kharkov and the big Soviet steel and iron works. An equally seri¬ ous threat to the Russian defend¬ ers was building up in tba north,

Blenheims, escorted by fighters, attacked a big German convoy off the Dutch coast during the after¬ noon, setting fire to four of then- and hitting one or two others.
"One of the larger ships was hi! and although the results were dif¬ ficult to observe, four ships were seen afire and the back of another was seen to have broken," a British source said
Another force of Blenheims, heavily escorted by RAF fighters, attacked the railroad centers of Hazebrouch and Abbeville in Northern France. A third forma- Mon went after the shipyards near Rouen and another blasted at the docks In Cherhojrg. Baltic Port Hit
The day attacks followed a hard¬ hitting bombardment of Stettin, big German Baltic port which is one of the ship centers of supply for German operations on the Nor¬ thern Russian front.
Channel observers watched large formations of bombers, heavil.v pro¬ tected by fishters, roar over the English  Channel through  the  da.v.
Many large fires were burning in the cit.v before the RAF planes turned about to head home. Only two planes were reported missing from the attack.

I'nreat in Bulgaria
An uncertain situation was build¬ ing up in Bulgaria. Dispatches from Sotis, obviously subjected to heavy censorship, hinted that Bulgarian authorities are meeting with difli¬ culty in their policy ot Intimate collaborations with Germany due to widespread pro-Russian sympa¬ thies of the Slavophile populace.
A dispatch from the United Press correspondent at Sofia said a midnight curfew had Iteen im¬ posed because of "the situation." Other reports suggested thst Bul¬ garian military precautions were bMng taken to deal with the un¬ certain internal situation and hinted guardedly of widespread sympathy among Bulgarian youth for the Russian cause.
