$4,000 Pay
Damper Apt
To Hit Snag
Continued Court Action
Expected From Victims
By PAUL MALLON

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2-The
w administration has FASTENED
TO put a legal damper on any
suits arising out of the $4,000
salary ceiling limitation - but
the damper itself seems TO have
flaws.
The regulation says:
"Any determination of the
board, made pursuant to the au-
thority conferred on Il, shall be
final, and shall not be subject
to review by the tax court Of the
United States, or by any court
In any civil proceedings"
That damper in itself is
enough to put the matter into
the courts. There appears to be
no precedent for it.
ANE senator. in a position to
" be the best congressional
authority. says, off the record,
he knows of none.
The only legal basis for the
$4,000 limitation which has
been furnished by Congress, is
in the anti-inflation law which
authorizes the government to
clamp down on gross in
equities" in salaries.
Obviously, some lawyers are
going to make the government
prove that salary about $685.
900 is a gross inequity.
The regulation barring them
from getting into the courts will
no doubt provide them the basis
upon which TO sue.
A long line of court action is
therefore in prospect. but mean
time any one who wants to sue
will have to pay larger income
taxes for the privilege.

More to the point, wood is one of the

Consider: Nearly one third of the continental
United States is tree growing land. We have
timber galore which can permanently provide
an annual crop sufficient for our needs If
proper reforestation is practiced. Imagine
what it would mean if we could fall back on
wood to do the work of steel, aluminium, rub

We'll, that's just what Uncle Sans wood
experts here are trying to do. They've gone
far, indeed, toward doing it already.
Take the most obvious use of wood: as

houses with it, but how about the great struc-

work? The wood scientists have provided the

From his Chicago hospital, Blackburn
okayed Louis six rounds of daily boxing at
Fort Dix. Usually Louis boxes only four
rounds in training but he wanted to box six,
for Simon. Blackburn, informed of Louis
weight gave his permission to Julian Black
who in turn phoned on to Fort Dix.
There's a rather touching relationship
between Blackburn, the tough and crafty old
battler, and the big open-faced champion

Blackburn touches Louis or rubs him. he does
it with the deft and loving hands of a sculptor
