Tractor Given
Victory Over
Kodiak Bear
v the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
KODIAK, Alaska Butch, rough,
tough, scrapper of the Northland,
snapped his winning streak in the
third round.
Butch, a pugnacious Kodiak bear
tangled with an imperturbable cater
pillar tractor.
The blow-by-blow report, related
for service mems publication by
the tractor driver, who had an en-
forced treeside seat:
Round one-The tractor appeared
unruff1ed as Butch rushed from his
corner. The puzzled Kodiak shuff1ed
in to feel his man out. AS he led
gingerly with his nose the tractor
retaliated with the old one-two-a
hot manifold and flying fan blades
both to the nose. Clearly the trac-
tors round.
Round two - Changing tactics,
Butchs roar matched the tractor S
rumble as he charged headlong. He
unleashed his famed Kodiak Sunday
punch flush on the machines mid
section. Butch's knees wavered as
he limped to the corner on three
paws. Bear awarded round on ag-
gressiveness.
Round three-Easing reluctantly
out of his corner, Butch growled,
tented thrice to regain his pride
and waddled out of the arena. The

them are expected to leave before
the bombing season starts.
Public and private dugouts will
be able to accommodate about $780,
900. Thus there will not be room for
every one, even with the usual
exodus. Consequently the authori-
ties have ordered every one with
out a proper domici1e permit to
leave Chungking, and If they do
not do so by April Is, they may be
arrested and imprisoned.
1t is hoped to increase the capitals
dugout capacity to half a million.
Blasting goes on now, day and night.
If all goes well, the present project
will be finished by the end of the
year.
But the big question mark today
is whether the Japanese raiders will
be permitted, as they were last year,
to bomb Chungking at will, unchal-
lenged save for anti-aircraft fire.
An effective radio net which warns
the capital the moment any hostile
plane crosses the border of Szechwan
gives the populace plenty of time to
take refuge. 1t should be invaluable
to Chinese or Allied fighter planes.
Chungking hopes to get the planes.

Profits Curb Discussed.
II 1t becomes necessary later to re-
quire compulsory savings. Senator
George said 1t should apply "all up
and down the line In that event,
the saving exacted from the ordi-
nary wage-earner would take the
form OF a withholding tax at the
source, but also would be repayable
after the war.
Senator George, who made 1t
clear last week while the Senate was
attempting to curb excess war profits
by a rider on 2 pending war ap-
preparation bill, that he believed
that problem can be dealt with
effectively through taxation, dis
cussed it further yesterday in con-
nection with the tax savings plan.
II am in favor of a high excess
profits tax, even up to 100 per cent"
the Senator continued, but with 20
per cent allowed the taxpayer if
invested in Government bonds, to
be repaid in four or five installments
after the war"
He emphasized, however, that he
would impose a capital gains tax,
at maximum rate of IS per cent,
on the part invested in war bonds,
to be collected as the installments
are repaid to the taxpayer after the
war.
Senator George explained that if
a universal compulsory savings plan
Is adopted later. he would not favor
taking more than per cent from
wage earners at the start in the
form OF withholding tax, and would
be willing to return practically all
OF this money to the wage Garner

the shores of Northern Luzon Island,
and another was said to have been
overtaken south of Cebu.
Domei said a seventh ship-which
it identified as a swift motor boat
was damaged badly in a running
fight south of Cebu.
Battling Defenders.
Domei said Japanese bluejackets
landed at Cebu City, capital of Cebu
Island and second largest city in the
Philippines, and were battling with
defense forces in streets "shrouded
with smoke as the enemy set fire to
vessels in the bay, oil tanks and
other installations.
The news agency reported other
landings on the island had been
made at Argao, on the east coast 40
miles south of the capital, and at
the west coast town of Barili.
Describing action on Bataan up to
late last Thursday, Domei said ad-
vancing japanese troops planted
the rising sun flag within enemy
defense lines around Marivales,
strategic city at the tip of the pen
insula."
This might be taken to indi-
cate that as late as Thursday
American and Filipino rear guard
forces still were fighting a COW

Rents Would Not Be Involved.
He expressed the belief this 5 per
cent withholding tax could apply to
wages, salaries, dividends and in
terest, but not to rents, and that
this rate would yield about $4,000
100000. He said he would favor
returning all of this, except the
cost Of administering the plan, after
the war.
Senator George said he would
rather try voluntary savings plan
in this years bill and see how 1t
works, because changes in the tax
law undoubtedly will be needed in
1943.
The effort to curb war profits in
the pending supplemental war ap-
preparation bill still awaits final
settlement by House and Senate
conference committee, which may
begin deliberations before the end
of this week. The conferees must
choose between the House fiat 6 per
cent profit limit on the contract
price, and the Senate's general pro-
vision for renegotiation of contracts
to maintain reasonable profits.

both categories, under the new es-
Inmates. Changes in regulations
covering boarding and rooming es-
tablishments are responsible in good
part for this boost.
Increased maintenance costs at
Gallinger and Glenn Dale and added
provision for venereal disease clinics
will absorb the remainder of the
recommended increase.
Rising Material Costs.
Other alterations were necessary
because of rising material costs
which have jumped from Is to 40
per cent since the Commissioners
put the 1943 estimates into shape.
Moreover, some items were deleted
from the original budget as a re-
suit of priority restrictions on crit
ical building materials which halted
number of contemplated projects.
Altogether, it is estimated, there
Is an increase of about $980,0 in
appropriations recommended to
come out of the general funds, a
large portion of which will be used
to provide the additional needs of
the Health Department. The spe-
cial highway and water funds, it
was said, will bear the cost of the
Anacostia Bridge project and the
new s25o,OO0 water main.
The original SIS, 100000 budget
was Dredicated on continuance of
the existing SITS real and personal
property tax and the annual $6,00O,-
600 Federal payment toward District
expenses. While the revisions have
boosted the total about 100000,
it is indicated an increase in the
tax rate may be avoided in the COM
ing fiscal year since revenue income
probably will exceed earlier esti-
mates.
The Lanham war time housing
and public works bill for the Wash
ington METROPOLITAN area, signed
yesterday by President Roosevelt. is
expected to save the District the
expense of financing a number of
municipal improvements in the
coming fiscal year made necessary
by the influx of Government war
workers. The legislation is intended
chiefly to provide additional housing
units for which $4,000 900 is author
lied, but 100000 is allocated for
related community facilities such as
additional water and sewer services,
and more school and hospital ac-
commodations.
The Commissioners have decided
to ask for about Sl3,000000 of the
S20,0000 900 under the Lanham Act
for public works. Most of this
money is expected to come to the
District as an outright grant.
The Budget Bureau is expected to
send to the House this week an item
of $50,0o0,000 to carry out provisions
of the Lanham Act. and plans have
been made to speed action on it so
steps can be taken without further
delay to alleviate the housing sit
uation.

ations when hearings begin tomor-
