War Department to Get
Production Division Chief
WIPES Operations Will be Tied More
Tightly TO Militory Strategy Demands

WASHINGTON, June 22-tP)
- Complete reorganization of
the War Production Board, in
Guiding a reShuffling of some
top officials, probably will be
announced this week, with in
dicationS that WPB's future OPP
erations will be tied even more
tightly to demands Of military
strategy.
H e d ing up the personnel
changes, it was learned today.
will be the transfer of William
H. Harrison, chief of WPB's pro-
duction division 10 the War De
partment, where he presumably
will take over an important post
in the procurement setup of the
Service of Supply.
CLOSER CONTACT
Of major significance in plans
for the new setup is a move TO
bring WPB chairman Donald NJ.
Nelson and the Army and Navy
Chiefs of STAFF into closer con-
tact, with a view toward in
creasing elaSti city of war pro-
duction TO fit swiftly changing
military requirements.
During rec ent co ferences
with Captain Oliver Lyttelton,
British Minister of Supply, Mel
son told reporters that the COM
bined British and American pro-
duction board intended to aim
for Standardization of military
equipment, and close coordina-
ton of British and American
war production with strategic
and tactical developments on all
United Nations fronts.
The WPB shake-up, it was I'M
derstood, would effect this CO.
ordination so far as the United
States was concerned.
NOT BASED ON REPORT
Officials made ii clear that the
changes would not be based on
the recent report of the Senate
Defense Investigating Commit

based on recommendations of

New Excise
Taxes Sought
SoIes Tex Proposals
ore Defeated

WASHINGTON, June % 49,
P)-With sales tax proposals de-
feated, the House Ways and
Means committee turned TO a few
new excuses today in an attempt
TO swell further the record
breaking total of S6,640,00O,0O0
in new taxes il already has APP
proved TO help finance war.
Two proposals have been ad-
vanced to tax bank checks, eth
er a definite amount on each
check or a flat monthly percent
age levy against the total with
draWals from a bank account.
And the Treasury has suggested
that soft drinks be taxed about
Sl46,000,000 annually.
But with the committee pied
ged TO complete its work not lat
er than Wednesday, it appeared
that the total taxes ii will re-
commend TO the House will re-
main about O0O,OO0,000 shy
of the revised Treasury Depart
ment request for S8,70O,000,O00.
Before ending its study which
began March 80 the committee
also must consider a So-called
general relief" provision de
signed to adjust hardShipS that
the steeply-increased corpora
ton rates might impose on
growth" companies-those new
in business or which, for some
reason, cannot use the average
earnings or invested capital base
in computing excess profits tax
es.
The committee refused, by a
vote reported to have been l3 TO
8, even to consider the sales tax
question at special meeting
Saturday. Proponents argued
that a S per cent retail levy, with
government purchases excluded,
would produce S2,500,000, 900,
but others argued that such tax
would fall too heavily on small
incomes because of the large per-
centage spent on necessities Of
life.
But the committee did APP
prove, by 10 to 9, new system
Of collecting income taxes at the
source, be it pay checks, pay en-
velopes or bond interest.
The program, to begin next
January 1, calls for a 10 per
cent Withholding each week
or month, depending on how a
person is paid, of the difference
between pay for that period and
weekly personal exemptions.
Those exemptions are obtained
by dividing the annual exemp-
tons by So.
Half of these automatic de-
auctions would be used as a
credit against income tax bills
payable in 1913 on 1912 incomes.
The other half would accumulate
as a credit in 1913 against the
1914 tax bill. The system con-
templates that by 1914, the fun
10 per cent deduction would be
applied against the 1914 tax bill.
