Britain Reports
By the Associated Press.

oy Llle ASSOClAteO PfeSS.
LONDON, Oct. 20.-Britain has
IAN actual record of attacks which
have resulted in the sinking or
damaging of over $50 Axis sub
marines" since the war began, A. v.
Alexander, first lord of the Ad-
miralty, asserted today.
Mr.. Alexander, giving a war COM
mentary at Caxton Hall, said this
total included some attacks by
United States forces, but did not
include those either by the Russians
or by France before June, 1910.
I'VE have had much discussion in
recent months about second front"
he said, but we must always re-
member that our ability to secure
this depends directly upon the degree
OF control we exercise at sea as well
as in the air."
He said. the war against the u
boat still was "our greatest problem. {"
He said, however, the United
States and British shipbuilding pro-
grams afford me more grounds for
confidence in our final victory at sea
over Germany and Japan than any
other factor" although I'VE must
tight on as we have fought" until
the programs are completed.
Saying the Allies needed control
OF the sea to carry the war to the
enemy as We mean to do," Mr.. Alex
ander declared also that I'VE must
expect the enemys effort at sea
to increase, but, I assure you, so will
our countermeasures increase"

The final House action, on a
standing vote of $50 to 2, was adop-
ton of compromise report which
adjusted 500-odd differences with

raising.
While the Treasury's experts have
estimated the measure would bring
in Sc, ,881 $3.50 900 in new funds, Chair
man Doughton of the House Ways
and Means Committee reported it
would yield a gross of 10000, ,000, 900
and a net of $4,000, ,0O0,0
A $4,000, 100000 increase would
make the total to be collected in
Federal taxes. in 1943 roughly
$4,000, ,0OO,0 900.
The House action left only Senate
approval of the compromises neces-
sary to complete congressional ac-
ton on the measure and it was sent
Immediately to that chamber with
the possibility that final congress
sional action on the bill could be
taken there today.
Before the House stamped on its
approval, Mr.. Doughton described
the bill as "the best that can be done
under the very difficult circum-
stances under which the committee
has labored in its preparation"
This, together with other taxes
on the books, represents about Is
cents on every dollar OF national in
come" Representative Knutson, Re-
publican, Of Minnesota told the
House.
Quick Senate action would send
the bill to President Roosevelt for
his signature In plenty of time for
the excise taxes to become appli-
cable on November /. This would
put $4,000, 900 In the Treasury next
month over and above the excise
taxes now in force.

fore the first of the month on which
they begin, in this case by tomor.

Treasury sources estimated that
around $40, ,000, 900 900 Of the total

bare steppes between the Don
and Volga forced the great battle
Of Stalingrad back to the World
War tactics of artillery barrage
and infantry assault temporarily,
and when the cold wind died
down today the Russians still
were holding firm along their
battered lines.
Battlefront dispatches said the air
war of dive bombers and swarms
of fighters was resumed full scale
after the short foretaste of winter
which forced the planes of both
sides from the air and gave the de-
tenders respite from at least one
phase of the Nazi onslaught.
The Germans turned to ground
war tactics of generation ago,
pouring down a three-hour artil-
lery barrage and following it up
with slashing infantry attacks in
an effort to keep their offensive
rolling.
Met With Point Blank Fire.
The defenders met them with
polnt-blank gunf1re and held firm
in positions which the Nazis have
failed to dent since Sunday night.
The fiercest fighting centered in a
northern factory district of the city.
Izvestia reported in a dispatch
from the front lines that supplies
and reinforcements continued to
reach the defenders of Stalingrad.
The Government newspaper said
German long-range guns were she'll
ing the Volga in an effort to inter-
rupt these crossings.
German planes also were said to
have dropped mines into the river
in an effort to prevent the defenders
from using the 2-mile-wide stream
Sailors Reinforce Flotilla.
Sailors Of the Red Fleet have ar
rived to reinforce the Volga flotilla,
Izvestia reported. 1t said they were
in action on the river and ashore,
firing from ships and gunboats and
even taking part in the fighting
in the streets.
The Germans were repulsed,
seven tanks were destroyed and 400
OF the enemy were killed." the
noon communique said.
Patrols cut into German strength
by night.
"A part of * unit in a night
engagement destroyed 10 German
planes and 4 mortars, smashed 13
pillboxes and dugouts and wiped
out more than company of Ger
man infantry it was announced.
Enemy Outpost Raided.
Northwest of Stalingrad our
scouts raided an advanced enemy
outpost, killing 40 Germans and
capturing two machine guns. Our
artillery smashed four enemy guns
and mortar battery and killed a
large part of two German COM
panies."
(The German high command
announced the occupation of an
additional block of houses in the
