MOSCOW, Aug. 1.-German

Army defenses below the Lower
Don today, reaching toward the
Azov Sea coast and pressing ever
deeper into the West Caucasus,
but Soviet soldiers defending the
river bend before Stalingrad
were reported holding their own
and communicating.
Bloody hand-to-hand engage
ments marked some of the battles
southwest, south and southeast of
Bataisk-itself IS miles from Rostov
and Nazi pressure forced further
Russian Withdrawals.
Russian shore batteries and ma
rlnes were reported in action south
west of Bataisk, indicatin the in
vaders were within striking distance
OF the southern beaches on the Gulf
OF Tagcnrog if not the Azov shores.
Soviet observers insisted that Ger
man armored strength had been so
depleted as to force another revision
OF Nazi offensive strategy and the
newspaper Red Star declared edi-
torially that "the Red Army has no
right to retreat any longer"
The people will never forgive the
army for a further retreat" the
newspaper said, and pictured the
nations defenses as a great chain
with no link weakening.
Flames Scar Countryside.
Mechanized equipment crushed

flames SCARED the countryside in
the widening battle for Caucasian
oil, railways and seaports. Russian
cavalrymen were reported striking
savagely from the old hills, or kur-
gans, where warriors Of past CEN
turieS are buried.
Northeastward, an area miles In
depth and the width of the Don
elbow was cut by tanks as Red Army
men, with strong air support, were
reported holding the Germans from

Address Here in Doubt.
FBI officials reported that de Guz-
man told them he lived at 1896
Euclid street NV. At the home

De Guzman was described by the
FBI as an active figure in a drive

In New York yesterday, P. E. Fox

Walsh Sees Revival
Of Proposal for Joint

OF Criticism if 1t FoiIs

b. the Associated Press.

b the Associated Press.
Revival of a Treasury proposal
to require joint income tax re-
turns from married couples was
predicted today by Senator
Walsh, Democrat, of Massachu-
setts, who said the Senate FL
nance Committee ought to do
everything within its power to
increase the House-approved rev.
enue bill by 2,50O, ,000, 900.
The committee voted last Monday
not to consider further a Treasury
suggestion, previously turned down
by the House Ways and MeanA Com
-mittee, for mandatory joint returns
from husbands and wives.
The proposal calculated to bring
in an additional $40, 200 900 by
forcing many taxpayers into higher
rate brackets, was one Of the chief
sources Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau advised tapping in an
attempt to approach the Treasury's S
goal Of 50, TOO, 900 in additional taxes.
The House-approved measure would
increase taxes by 81, 200, ,o00, 900.
Little Additional Revenue Seen.
Senator Walsh declared that the
Finance Committee, of which he is
the ranking Democratic member
next to Chairman George, may have
to reverse its decision on this ques-
ton or be charged with failing to
provide sufficient revenues to help
finance the war.
Il am in favor Of assessing the
full amount of taxes that the Treas
ury has asked" Senator Walsh told
reporters. II don't think Congress
can afford to fall down o nthis, nor
do I think it wants to be put in
the position where any one can pass
the buck to 1T and say that it did
not provide the money that was
needed"
While other members said they
agreed that the maximum amount
of taxes ought to be provided, some
added that there appeared to be
little chance that the bills total
could be boosted substantially.
Senator Connally, Democrat, of
Texas, said 1t was his horse back"
opinion that the Senate committee
would make many changes In the
bill, but would find few new sources
of revenue.
George Says Changes Necessary.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican,
OF Michigan has voiced the opinion
that it was more important at this
time to preserve a going economy
that could provide heavy investment
In Government bonds than 1t was to
extract the last possible dollar in
taxes.
Remarking that testimony on the
new tax bill indicated it was neces-
sary to make changes, Senator
George yesterday named a subcom-
mittee headed by Senator Brown,
Democrat, Of Michigan, and includ-
ing Senators Radcliffe, Democrat, of
Maryland; Taft, Republican, of Ohio
and Vandenberg to confer with
Treasury experts on amendments.
AS the committee closed its hear
1ngs for the week, Senator George
read a telegram from Jack Frost,
executive secretary of the Aircraft
Parts Manufacturers Association,
declaring that If the House. approved
rate of 80 per cent tax on excess
profits were allowed to stand, many
members of the association would be
forced out of business.
