pass quickly and easily. When
foot pressure is released, the

Treasury Secretary Morgenthau
expressed hope last night that the
new tax pending in the House Ways
and Means Committee would not
be too little and too late"
The Secretarys statement, in an

Congressman who have altered or
rejected many points in the $8,700,-

he has recommended.
THE people of this country have
shown in a thousand ways that they
are not in the mood for half meas

Secretary Morgenthau declared.

burdens are unfairly distributed.
They will be disappointed in their

ask them for all-out effort"

charges of espionage, caused him to
sign a statement admitting he was
a Nazi agent.
Retracting various parts Of the
statement, DR.. Gros told Judge Ben
Harrison:
Il was afraid the FBI would tor
ture my wife If I didn't sign any
thing they wanted me to. Secret
police in Europe are doubtful Or
ganizations and I didn't know any
thing about the FBI."
DR.. Gros said there was no truth
in his signed statement that Hitler's
high-ranking executioner, Reynard
Heydrich. had ordered him to To-
ment strikes and organize sabotage
in this country, nor in his previous
claim that his uncle, Maj. Hans
Bebert of the German Military In
telligence, had instructed him to
represent the Reich in negotiations
with the Japanese If the United
States entered the war.
Earlier in the day Albrecht Ru-
dolf Curt Reuter-, 56-year-old art
