Nazi AiESfabs al Bases
In Iceland Decreasing

There has been q noticeable de-
crease in German air forays over
American bases in Iceland during
recent months, it was reported to
the War Department yesterday by
1t. Col. Donald Hudson, commander
OF Army Air Forces based there for
Is months.
Col. Hudson attributes this to the
diminished strength of the Luft-
waite and its need for more planes
IN other theaters of operation.
United States air patrols and anti
aircraft crews in Iceland have been
effective in destroying and driving

on enemy raiders, Col. Hudson said,
ana even enemy reconnaissance
flights are growing fewer.
AS an example of how the combat
flyers are doing, he cited the bravery
of First 1t. Michael L. Ingelido,
Southington, Conn.,, in shooting
down a German JU-88.
The enemy plane appeared out of
a cloud formation while 1t. Ingelido
was on patrol. He closed into
attack-so close that his concen-
trated fire cut off the German
planes tail assembly. It fell away
and crashed into 1t. Ingelido's
fighter before the American could
pull out of the way. In spite of the
severe damage resulting to his own
plane, 1t. Ingelido landed safely.

Now Is the Time

If the Gallup poll was correct, and 80
per cent Of the people favor putting tax
alton onto a scientific basis by adopting
the Ruml Plan, now is the time for them
to tell Congress, particularly the House.
The Ways and Means Committee has
tossed a deformed tax offspring into the
lap Of Congress, an alleged compromise"
that actually compromises with nothing
except the economic soundness of the
nation and its taxpayers. There will be
a fight on the floor Of the House. Treas
ury strategistS, who have befuddled the
tax issue throughout, will try to rush
the spineless committee compromise"
through before the public has oppor-
tunity to make its will felt. It isn't i'm
portant that the "Ruml Plan" be adopted.
It isn't important who writes the tax bill
or who takes credit for the reform.
All that matters Is that a pay-as-you-
earn tax be installed in such manner that
taxpayers will not have to meet the heav-
lest two years taxes In American history
out Of one years income.
The pay-as-you-earn tax is vital now,
because so many little fellows have been
tapped, who cannot meet their obliga-
tons on any other basis 1t will be
doubly vital when the war ends, and
war-inflated incomes return to lower
levels or disappear altogether. If Uncle
Sam has not taken his cut as 1t was earned,
he will not get 1t at all In the postwar
slump. He can fine the tax creditors, but
he can't collect; he can sentence them
to Jail, but he won't have money to build
enough jails to hold them. The pay-as-
yoal-earn tax, without doubled-up collec-
lions, Is vital If the Treasury does not
want deluge Of surrendered war bonds
accompanied by the inability Of wage
earners to buy bonds while they are pay
Ing two taxes in one year.
The Ways and Means Committees
compromise Is such bad bill, In itself,
that the House should reject 1t even If
there were no counter-p proposal possess
ing almost universal public support.
We, the taxpayers, do not have to sit
sadly by and see Congress do us dirt.
The congressman were elected by us.
They will lie down, roll over and Jump
through hoops all at the same time, If
we tell them with sufficient unanimity
that is what we want. Now Is the time
TO tell them.

Stephen Vincent Benet

At forty-four years Of age Stephen
Vincent Benet had achieved q lasting
fame. His brief but noted literary career
which actually began in his college days
ended abruptly with his death Sunday.
All Of his life was given to literary pur-
suit, his writing and his family, it Is said,
his two great passions.
Catapulted to fame with his distin-
guished epic poem, "John Browns Body"
the author had repeated triuinphs in
prose and poetry. Professor Jack Craw-
ford Of the English Literature depart
ment at Yale University, who considered
the work a great literary achievement,
said OF the poem that 1t was vivid and
emotionally true. Benet was one of group
that Crawford taught, another of them
Thorton Wilder, that have had diStinc-
tive and distinguished careers in writing.
If he had written nothing else, John
Browns Body" would have been Suffi-
cient to place Mr.. Benet as one Of our
outstanding writer's. Descended from
family of United States army officers
Benet caught the patriotic spark and
produced his great epic poem, and up TO
the time of his death was giving a great
part of his time to the war effort; COM
posed the prayer for United Nations"
and prepared the script for war programs
on and off the radio. If his death had
not occurred, he would have finished
another epic poem called western Star.
"The Devil and Daniel Webster" was
another of his literary successes. But
none will be remembered as long as his
stirring story of the war between the
north and the south, poem of greatness
whose hero was America; poem that
had fire and eloquent rhythm, lyrical
beauty and an impressive narrative form,
In his somewhat brief years Mr.. Benet
accomplished much and leaves some
precious literary treasures.

A Bridge In Name Only

It's quite suggestion that is being
made about disposition OF the old high
way bridge across the Thames River be-
tween New London and Groton. From
the U. S. district engineers office at
Providence, r. l., comes the proposal
that in view Of the war emergency the
old bridge be retained, but that the draw
be open at all times for river navigation.
In other words the bridge would be there
in the event that something happened to
the new toll span, but 1t would not be
open to vehicular traffic. All Of which
Is q pretty clever way Of meeting the
rather difficult situation raised in New
London.
The original plan was that within 100
days after opening of the new toll bridge
the old one would have to be removed.
That was one of the War Department.
stipulationS when a permit was granted
to build new and much-needed structure
across the Thames River. Sentiment in
favor of retaining the old bridge has
been on the increase during the past
six months, as it became evident that the
new one would not be finished as per
schedule and as public-minded citizens
and officials got to thinking what could
happen if the Atlantic Seacoast was ever
raided by the Nazis.
The solution as outlined above would
probably be welcomed by state officials
who are fearful that if both bridges are
open to the public the toll one will suffer.
A considerable decline in estimated toll
income is anticipated at any rate because
of the gasoline and tire rationing pro-
grams, but if the public had the chance
Of choosing between free and toll
bridge, the latter would be sure to suffer.
Hence, there probably won't be wailing
and crashing Of teeth at Hartford II the
idea Of leaving the draw open at all times
is accepted.
But it's hard to imagine that those IN
terested in retaining the old bridge would
agree to any such suggestion. Naturally,
If they want the bridge kept, even If only
for an emergency, they are going to argue
that 1t be available for public use. And
in such arguments they'll probably get
the support of most Of the voters down
New London way.

the sudden success story OF many work

all are enjoying the same current pros.
perity We are apt to hear more about
the individual that is getting along today,
as the saying goes, than the individual
who Is still struggling along. It was
stated from reliable statistics by local
authority on the subject of labor that IN
1941 fifty per cent Of our population was

White House after partaking OF
beer, cheese, crackers and q double
helping Of Roosevelt charm.
To o man, they sang his praises,
and most Of the singing was done
by Republicans who had blasted
the President and his administra-
ton up hill and down dale In the
last campaign.
Roosevelt entertained his guests
with O variety OF conversational
topics, ranging from O serious dis
cussion on the progress Of the
war and his trip TO Africa to
light banter on Congressional
"wOrd coming" and pleasure drlv-
Ing"
So they could get to know him
better, Speaker Rayburn took
turns In assembling the Con-
greSsional visitors before the
President In three separate groups
Of about 40 each. This enabled
everyone TO hear him at close
range, without neck-craning.
Meanwhile the others munched
crackers and drank beer In other
parts Of the room.

that, though the President paid
special attention to Republican
Representative Winifred Q. STAN
ley OF New York which some
construed aS q slap OF her moro

Luce Of Connecticut--he by no
