Labor Board 10 Settle
JurisdictionaI Strikes
z, tho Associated Press.

b the Associated Press
The War Labor Board told the
AFL and CIO yesterday that when
they failed to settle jurisdictional
disputes without stoppages of work
the board would invoke arbitration.
The boards labor members dis
sented from this decision, notice of
which was sent to William Green,
president of the AFL, and Philip
Murray, president Of the CIO.
The board said it had adopted
this resolution, with the labor mem
bers dissenting:
BE it resolved, that the War
Labor Board calls the attention of
the AFL and the CIO to the fact
that jurisdictional disputes during
the war period should be settled by
machinery set up by the two labor
organizations.
Whenever the two labor organ
izations fail to settle without delay
jurisdictional dispute that has led
to stoppage of work, the War
Labor Board will appoint an arbi-
traitor to render a decision, which
decision shall be final and binding

New Sources Needed
For Treasury Tax
Goal, Says George
Believes Senote
Group Opposed
To Higher Rates

Chairman George of the Sen
ate Finance Committee predicted
last night that If the Treasury
goal of an $8,700,00O,0 900 tax bill
is to be reached new sources of
revenue will have to be found.
Il do not think majority of the
committee will look with sympathy
on increasing the rates already dealt
with in the House BILL" said Senator
George, as the committee prepared
to resume hearings tomorrow.
In other words, if the Treasury
goal is to be reached, some con-
siderable percentage must come
from new sources"
Sales Tax Discussion,
The committee chairman said
such viewpoint obviously would
bring about a discussion of a sales
tax or the possible conversion of a
House-approved five per cent pay
roll deduction into a direct tax in
stead of merely an advance payment
on regular income tax liabilities.
Remarking that both of these
matters must be classed as ex-
tremely controversial, he said he
was not at all sure the committee
would agree .on any form of new
tax. He intimated such a disagree
ment might we'll result in failure by
the committee to recommend any
substantial revenue increases in the
measure.
Since the House scaled the Treas
ury program down to $6,300,0 900 900,
the issue before the Senate COM
mittee is whether to add s., 400 ,0OO,- :

P, tie Associated Press.
American submarines recently
sank a large new japanese de-
stroyer and four other ships in
enemy dominated waters of the
Western Pacific, the Navy an
nounced yesterday, adding that
a sixth vessel was damaged and
probably sank.
The destroyer was hit by two tor
pedoes and went down in nine min
utes. Shortly before it sank the
submarine poked its periscope above
the ocean surface less than quarter
Of mile away and made the first
combat picture ever taken in the
United States Navy from under the
sea.
This photograph showed the de-
stroyer, heeled far over to port and
down by the stern. The Rising Sun
insignia painted on it's forward tur-
ret for identification by airplanes
was plainly visible and two men in
white uniforms could be seen ap-
parently in the act of scrambling
off the ship.
Made by Special Camera.
1t. Comdr. John Long, Navy pho
tographic chief, said the picture
through the periscope was made with
special secret camera now being
supplied to all large United States
submarines by the Bureau OF Aero
nautics which developed it.
The accounting of undersea oper-
ations in the Western Pacific, first
issued here since May %, was given
in Navy Department communique
No. 100, which listed the damage in
flicted on the enemy as:
Sunk-one modern destroyer, one
medium sized tanker, three cargo
ships.
Damaged and believed sunk-one
medium sized cargo ship.
No details Of the actions were
given in the communique, but the
additional information about the
successful attack on the destroyer
was made available in the official
description of the picture taken
from the submarine.
Raiders Active In Aleutians.
While no information had been
released on sub operations in the
Western Pacific for almost two
months, the activities of American
undersea raiders in the Aleutians
have been reported, the latest &C
count being issued late Tuesday
when United States subs were cred
tied by the Navy with sinking three
japanese destroyers in the vicinity
of KiSka Island.
The score of successful submarine
attacks on Japanese ships as re-
ported by the Navy here now stands
at 55 sunk, IS probably sunk and IA
