WASHINGTON. April 10
Congress. acting on its own re-
Sponslbility. cannot avoid the I'M
pleasant task Of reaching soon
into every American pocketbook
for new and heavy contributions
with which 10 meet in part our
defense expenditures, Senator
Arthur II. Vandenberg lR) OF
Michigan said today.
.Vandenberg warned that much
heavier tax burdens lie ahead foI
all Americans and pointed out
that British war taxes now range
from two 10 -four times our pres
ent federal tax rate on incomes.
Commenting on a statement by
Assistant Secretary of the Treas
urcv John l. Sullivan on war
financing in other EngliSh-speak-
ING countries. Senator Nandenberg
again emphasized his belief that
the United States should more
nearly approach a pay-as-you-go
basis N paying for its program.
No PAINLESS WAR
II the country should enter the
war as an active belhgerent and

warned the burdens Will be far

that there il no such thing a.

80 PER CENT PAY-AS-YOU-GO
The treasury report is a pre-
view of what we ourselves con
front. The British budget for
1940-f94l shows revenues OF
1860. 100000 pounds and eN-
penditureS of 3,466,00O, 900
pounds; In other words, the
United Kingdom. even under the
present pressure of its desperate .
situation. Is on nearly a 10 per
cent pay-as-you-gO basis.
Mr.. SulliVan's figures for
the Australian budget for 1870
1871 show that the Australian
government. i'm spite OF its
heavy contribution 10 the war,
Is practically on a completely
pay-as-yOu-gu basis.
THE Canadian budget for
1940-t94l indicates a revenue OF
about $3.50, O0O.O 900 and ordinary
expenditures of about S1,14S,-
600. 900; resulting In a deficit of

Pravda said, the Russians found a
report from the commander of the
239th German Infantry Regiment
showing that his unit had lost half
of its remaining strength of 400 men
in one day.
The Russians said their purpose
now is to eXterminate the German
armies on their soil.
Pravda said the Soviet troops
driving Adolf Hitler's tired, beaten

The Russians claim Hitler has
