Congressional Leaders
to Spurn Additional Bills
Biggest OF All Revenue Bills
on FDR's Desk for Signature

Moreover, George made 1t
plain that he believed the tax
load contained in the new bill al
ready approached the maximum.
"Of course" George said, 1--WE
are going to have to 60 into the
question of compulsory savings
to help in financing the war. 1t
may be that Mr.. Morgenthau will
bring back from London some
ideas of what the British have
accomplished in obtaining such
forced loans and they may be
useful to u.s."
Morgenthau has been in Lon
don on an undisclosed mission
and his absence was regarded as
likely to delay any new recon-
mendations.
President Roosevelt told his
press conference yesterday that
he would sign the new measure
before midnight tonight thus
breathing life into the second of
two pieces of legislation he told
Congress on Sept. 2 he must have
quickly to prevent further in
creases in the cost of living. The
first of these, which Congress
gave him speedily, was firmer
control over prices. wages and
salaries.
AS the tax measure stands, ii
contained these major provisions:
A S per cent Victory tax on in
dividual income over $12 a week,
with postwar credits. This was
combined with stiff increases in
the normal and surtax rates on
net income and q broadening OF
the base of the income tax by q
cut in exemptions.
A 8 percentage increase in cor
poration taxes on normal and
surtax income and an elevation
of the sliding scale of excess pro-
fits to q flat 90 per cent rate.
Increases in excise taxes on H.
quor, cigarettes, cigars and other
items, which would become ef-
fective Nov. /.

Had he lived, he would. in all likelihood, have achieved his an- bition of playing major league base ball, but since he had to go, it was nobler that he should die on the field of battle"

 fierce resistance from powerful AL lied formations that they were forced to retire without reaching their objective"
 Allied planes chased the enemy back to Lac, with one formation of Bristol Beaufighters attacking the nearby Salamaua airfield and tles- troying three Zeros on the ground. The Japanese lost total of l9 planes. A single American fighter failed to return to base. Allied planes als sank three Japanese barges.
 Four. .engined Flying Fortresses and twin-engined Douglas Boston bombers and Beaudghters concern trated on the Buna battle area throughout the day, bombing and Strafing runways, anti-aircraft po- sitions and barges. Martin B.26 bombers pounded enemy positions on Gairopa Point, about one mile south of the Buna Mission Village and Cape Endaiadere.
 The official communique and front dispatches revealed that the land fighting was progressing favorably for the Allies, but that enemy re- sistance, as had been anticipated, was stiffening.
 "In the face of heavy resistance, our ground troops are steadily clos. ing in on all sides on the enemy's dwindling position" MacArthur re- ported.
 An Allied spokesman confirmed that one column of American troops has occupied small strip about two and one-half miles from Buna and now are assaulting the main air field about two miles south of the village.
 Allied prospects were enhanced by the arrival of artillery at the front, but there were no reports that 1t had gone into action. The enemy continued to use mortars, machine guns and light artillery.
 American troops also were attack ing the enemy at Gairopa Point and other units were thrusting at Buna itself from the north and were at least within one mile of the village. Australian troops were exerting pressure on the Japanese right flank at Coma and reportedly had made significant gains, but the exact situ- ation was not known. There like wise was no detailed information on the progress of the joint American Australian column thrusting at Buna along the main track after having occupied Soputa, about five miles from Buna.
 Despite Allied pre- occupation with the New Guinea offensive, a forma- tion of heavy bombers ranged over to the Northern Solomcns and strafed Japanese airfield and wharf on Buka Island, north of Bougainville Island. One enemy bomber was destroyed on the ground and Japanese troops were killed and wounded, the communique said.

 NEW RELIEF GROUP GOOD WAR WEAPON
(Continued from Page D

As its title indicates, 1t will:
 1. Give relief oe food, cloth. ing, medical supplies and other essentials to countries which are occupied by the United Nations.
 2. Be prepared ;o rush In supplies as soon as peace comes and to set up rehat ltatlon ma chinery which will tore In the quickest possible til economic and political security In the freed nations.
 Knowledge that such relief Is available is expected to create a tremendous pressure of resistance in Axis occupied countries to thinly spread Axis troops, It is also likely to strengthen the United States voice at the peace conference.
 Reaction is expected to be par- ticularly strong in France, Norway, Poland, Holland, Belgium, Czecho- slovakia and Jugoslavia.
 Iehman's first task will be to send aid to North Africa. It had been a vast food reservoir for pre- viously Unoccupied France and its loss is expected to force Germany to spread even more htinly the present European food supply.

 While the Red Army has been destroying German armored strength British and American tanks have been pouring into Russia. Britain alone, 1t is estimated, has provided the equivalent of 20 divisions in the last year and a half.
 These tanks have played a big role in the opening of the Soviet offen- sive in the last few days - an of- fensive which has painted new de- tail into the gloomy Axis picture as the Na2iS entered their fourth vim ter of the war.
 The most important Russian drive sliced northwest from south of Stall ingrad, cutting the railway to Kras- nodar and promising to join at Kal- ach with the second drive, which started from the Russian bridge head across the Don River between Serafimovich and KletSkaya. This second drive already has made pro- gress. Rumanians originally were de- tailed to defend that area on the Don but indications were that the Germans had been forced to rush new troops into the breach.
 The railway running northwest of Stalingrad toward Yelets always has been in Soviet hands, except near Stal:ngrad, so that the Germans can now be deprived of communications in the area.
 Facing completed envelopment when the two Red shickle strokes join from North and South, the Ger mans are further embarrassed by the fact that the Don River is now a mass of huge ice flows swirling downstream at a dangerous rate. Maintenance of emergency pontoon bridges has thus been made difficult.
 Russian sources mentioned that l3 infantry divisions, three armored divisions, and two motorized divi- sions were endangered by the Red Army but in London circles 1t was believed that at least seven or eight more were probably inside the area. They said that since the Germans first attacked Stalingrad the terrain involved had been used by the NaziS to mass reserves.

 French troops were giving eSpec- ially valuable support in the inter- for, where they were suffering cas- ualitis in fighting superior numbers of German troops who had the ad- vantage of the most modern eQuip- ment.
