Youth Held for Grand Jury
In Restaurant Burglary

James West, an 10 year old
colored youth charged by police
with breaking into a restaurant last
Friday, was held for the grand jury
on charges Of housebreaking in
Municipal Court yesterday. Judge
Almond Scott set bond at 1000.
According to police, West Of the
400 block of First street NV. ad-
mitted that he and seven other
youths broke into a restaurant at
400 First street NV. and carried
off practically all the food in the
store. His companions, all juveniles,
have been turned over to Juvenile
Court authorities.
Among the items taken were II

and Navy as well as upon the war
workers."
When the newspapermen attempt
ed on March 10 to get the facts on
this situation, they were told every
thing was going to be all right. But
now the statement of Mr.. Carlton,
head OF large association of manu-
facturers of war weapons, shows that
everything isn't all right at all, and
that the efforts at suppression of the
truth have served to hide a serious
situation about which the American
people have not only not been In
formed but actually misled.

This Changing World
Rommel Believed Eoger to Reduce Forces
To Make His Bottle Supplies Lost Longer

pursuit Of Rommel. who Is en-
deavoring to break OF all contact
with his enemy.
Only strong rearguard actions
are being fought. But the Nan
commander has placed a strong
force between the seacoast and
the forces Of 1t. Gen. George S.
Patton, jr., whose mission has
been to reach the coast before all
the Rommel forces have gone
through the narrow neck.
The Rommel troops have sue
ceeded so far in hampering Gen.
Patton's advance.
Gen. Patton is inching toward
the gulf and is encountering .
determined resistance from the
German units which have been
ordered to hold their positions at
any cost until the bulk of the
Afrika Korps has managed to 60
through the 15-mile bottleneck
still open to them.
To prevent the sending OF
Axis reinforcements to Central
Tunisia from the North, the
forces Of Gen. Kenneth Ander-
son are reported to have UNDER
taken strong demonstrations
which have yielded some 1000
Nazi and italian prisoners.
1t is expected that these dem
onstrations will pin down all
the troops-some 10000 men
Gen. Won Arnim has at his dis
posal. But whether Gen. Patton
will be able to break through
the steel wall of the Germans Is
a matter which will be known
definitely in the next "a hours.
Allies Attempt to Raid sfax
In the meantime, the Allies.
who suspect that Rommel might
possibly contemplate embarking
some Of his forces from Sfax to
send them back to the European
mainland, are attempting to raid
the Sfax installations with Com
mando forces.
Reports of q British landing
at Sfax are believed to refer to
such Commando raids which are
endeavoring to make impossible
the evacuation of any units the
Nazis may wish to send to Italy.
Should Rommel escape with
the bulk of his forces, he would
add about $4,000 more men to
the Axis armies in Northern
Tunisia. Although the Allies
surrounding the natural fortress
in the north far exceed his own
forces, Rommel is believed to
want to get rid of some of his
troops.
The available supplies are suf-
ficient for a smaller force, and a
larger number would only con-
tribute to an early exhaustion
of the food and material stored
In the area.
The German strategy in North
Africa Is to delay an Allied VIC
tory as long as possible-and to
do this the Nazis need supplies
more than men.

thinks fast and far ahead. Con-
sequently, while there still is
some hope that he might be
trapped, the general opinion is
that he will get away and join
his junior, Col. Gen. Jurgen Won
Arnim in the north.
The movements OF the remain
ing four divisions which the Nazi
general still has intact are being
greatly slowed down. Although
they are highly mobile. the con-
tinuous bombardment by the
Allied air force slows consider
ably their progress over a space
Of about ITS miles separating the
Afrika Korps from the Won
Arnim forces.
The Allies have complete con-
troll Of the air. The Nazis, on
the other hand, have lost the
bulk Of their original forces and
whatever is left must be careful
how it uses the available gasoline
and oil. The supply of the
precious liquid has dwindled to
the danger point and must be
nursed along for the forthcoming
important battle in Northern
Tunisia.
Allies Hold Tank Superiority.
Under these circumstances the
Nazl aviation seldom appears
when our bombers and fighters
strafe retreating German COL
umns.
A similar situation exists in
regard to our superiority in
tanks. In this particular type Of
weapon, the Allies outnumber the
Nazis by at least to /. Moreover,
we do not have to be as econom-
tcal with our fuel as our enemies
since large stores have been built
up In the rear. Because the Nazi
aviation is virtually non-existent
for the time being the Americans
have been able to bring their
stores close to the battle line.
Under these circumstances, the
battle in Central Tunisia is devel-
oplng even more favorably than
had been anticipated.

The Political Mill
Public Will Turn to President for Action
Unless Congress Acts on Income Tuxes

Of taxes on 1942 income and
substituted collection of taxes on
1943 income. When the Repub-
licans in the House made a party
issue of the matter, the fat was
really in the fire. Some of the
Democrats who favored the Carl
son-Ruml bill found themselves
under extraordinary pressure to
support the administration. They
did. A number of Republicans,
on the other hand, were unable
to face the charge they would
be "forgiving" tax payments for
the benefit of the large-income
group, including themselves, If
they went along with Minority
Leader Martin for the Carlson
bill.
The voting in the House Tues
day was like page out of Alice
in Wonderland" In committee
of the whole, the Carlson bill was
substituted for the committee bill
by a vote of 1879 to 1873. When the
bill was reported to the House,
the Carlson bill was rejected by a
vote of 215 to 1913. And finally,
by a vote of 248 to 1853 the House
sent the whole thing back to
committee. killing the bill for the
time being.
The record of the administra-
ton has been none too good. 1t
was announced that 1t favored a
pay-as-you-go program for in
come tax collections. Then the
President declared himself
against the Ruml plan. But the
administration did not come for
ward with any workable, &C
ceptable plan of its own.
Will Look to President.
Unless the Congress itself can
come to some such plan, the pub-
lie, which has demonstrated in
various ways that it wants cur
rent method Of paying income
taxes, will look to the President.
He will again dominate the legis-
lative body, with public senti-
ment behind him. The theory
that the country would look to
the Congre for legislation,
which began to flourish after the
elections last year, would be
junked.
A great deal is being said and
written about postwar planning
to prevent disaster. This prop
osition Of getting the people on a
current tax paying basis is one Of
the most important steps that
could be taken to avoid trouble.
The President has already said
that SIG 900 900 900 additional rev.
enue must be provided this year.
Nothing has yet been done about
that either. 1t may be next fall
before this legislation is enacted.
1t was not until last October that
the present tax law-made retro
active for all of 1942-was en-
acted. The record of the admin
istration and of Congress in this
matter of war taxation has been
slow and vacillating. The people
should know as soon as possible
what their tax burdens are to be,
and how they are to pay the
taxes. There is a war to be
financed.
It is as plain as the nose on a
face that to become current in
the payment of income taxes,
some part of the 1912 taxes must
be by-passed. or there must be a
doubling up Of tax payments to
cover 1912 and 1943. At one time
or another during committee con-
sideration Of the bill, every men,
ber of the committee voted for
some measure of forgiveness" of
1912 income taxes. Under such
circumstances, q pay-as-you-go
bill, including Withholding at the
source, certainly can be worked
out.
