Harvard Has
Changed Much }
Says Edmonson

Harvard University has changed
quite a bit because of the war, ac-
cording to a letter received this
week by the Nogales international
from Munro Edmonson, 18 year old
son of Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Edmon-
son.
The young man, now in his
sophomore year at the big school,
wrote in part, as follows:
Harvard has changed quite a bit
because OF the war.
''The uncertainty of the immedi-
ate future even before the draft law
was passed caused a great deal of
interest in social problems and a
great upsWing in mathematics ma
jors.
There are many of the boys who
already assume that it's no use
studying if they won't be here till
mid-year anyway. All men who are
not physically disabled are required
to take a strenuous physical train
ing course, which was Harvard S
first step toward war, taken early
last spring.
''There is much talk of what will
/ become of Harvard by next yea1.
There are plans for a special one
year course composed of the best
Harvard can give to man who is
racing to get as much education as
he can before he is called up. Most
people think the whole university
will be completely militarized by
next year. Some are sure that ii
will be closed before June. Nobody
is really sure where he will spend
Christmas but all this is so matter
of fact that there is not even any
discussion about it."

built in U. S. A., was torpedoed twice and
then dive-bombed in the desperate efforts of
the enemy to stop the last convoy to Malta.
But her British master and crew kept her
going, got the precious cargo of oil through
to Malta as the above picture shows The gal

bombing planes have destroyed or
damaged seriously 20 grounded Jap
anese war planes in their second
heavy attack in "a hours on the
enemy base at Lac, on the north
New Guinea coast, Gen. Douglas
Macarthur announced today.
Smaller but none the less punish

japanese base at Koepang, in Timor
island off the northwest Australian
coast, and Suinalaki in the Neither
lands East Indies, Macarthur said in
his communique.
Japanese planes made three saw
age attacks yesterday on the Allied
airdromes at Port Moresby, on the
south New Guinea coast, but thanks
to the steadily increasing effective
ness CT American fighter planes and
Allied guns, they did only trifling
damage.
The guns of Corregidor, island
fortress in Manila bay, silenced
three japanese batteries and de-
stroyed a truck column in their
continuing duel with Japanese guns,
Macarthur said.
He reported, however, that the
Japanese made new landing from
five troop transports at Parang
Mindanao island.

Retailers Protest
Method of Setting
U.S.Price CEILINGS

WASHINGTON. April 30-(UP)-
The impc' ton of general price
ceilings next month will force re-
tailers. wholesalers and manufac-
turers to take a huge cut in gross
income, prime administration Off
Gals said today.
Maximum prices fixed at the high
est March levels will reduce the
spread between retailers en- one
hand and wholesalers and manufac-
turers on the other by about $780,
100000. the officials estimated.
The spread "a technical term
meaning the difference in gross in
comes of the three selling groups
will be set at rigid levels by the
price freezing order.
PROTESTS VOICED
Retail associations already have
protested vigorously with predic-
items that hundreds of thousands g
of stores will be forced out of busi-
ness by the OPA order. Main COM
plant is that the order fixes both
wholesale and retail prices at the
levels of the same month. During
March. the retailers say, they were
selling goods purchased at Febru-
airy wholesale prices-which were
in most cases lower than the March
wholesale prices.
The solution proposed by OPA
Administrator Leon Henderson was
a reduction in overhead items of
the retailers TO absorb the proper
tiClal cost increase. Describing the
American retail service as the most
luxurious in the world" he said
delivery services could be cut down
and statesmen could go without flow
ers in their buttonholeS

turerS Mrs. r. NJ. Kiefer, Secre-
tary of the National Association of
Retail Grocers, said that many
grocery items would have to be sold
at cost unless the wholesale ceiling
was rolled back" to levels of some
previous month.

SoIons Snub FDR
On Tax Proposal

WASHINGTON. April 30-(UP)-
The house ways and means COM
mittee was reported by well in
formed sources today to be near
an agreement on new corporation
taxes that would represent the first
congressional setback for President
Roosevelt's seyen-point economic
program.
The committee was said to be
about ready to approve a profits
tax plSa that would take IS or 90
per cent Of all excess earnings,
but retain the present formula for
computing the excess. 1t also was
said to favcr regular corporation
taxes and surtaXes Of 10 per cent
in contrast TO the 55 per cent rec
commended by the treasury.
These plans would boost present
corporation tax revenue by s.
500 100000 a year, at a 90 per cent
excess profits rate. whereas the
treasury'S plan would raise them
s.. Gee, 100000.
Mr.. Roosevelt in his message to
congress earlier this week, recon-
mended that profits be kept at a
reasonable rate-"The word 'reas-
enable being defined at n low level.
Administration sources said that If
the ways and means committee goes
through with the tax program on
which they are now said to be near
agreement. the President might feel
obligated to follow his general prof

cific proposal that congress could
not easily dismiss.
