DC. TeIevision Station
To Be Built After War,
NbC Aide Predicts

Indications that television sta
ton will be built in Washington
after the war were expressed by
Frank M. Russell, vice president in
charge of the Washington office of
the National Broadcasting Co., at
the first fall luncheon meeting yes
terday of the Advertising Club at
the Washington Hotel.
Mr.. Russell pointed out that ma
terial for such a station was al
ready on f1atcars when the war
broke out, but was diverted for more
essential use of the armed forces.
New Transmitter Developed.
At the same time. he told Of
new television ransmitter-not big
ger than a cigar box-that had been
developed in the last few months
which, when placed at 50-mile in
tervals on poles, would be able to
send television across the Nation
as straight as rifle" He added
that the discovery of frequency
modulation by which static is elm
mated and other improvements
would revolutionize the radio field
after the war.
Commenting on wartime difficult
ties of radio, Mr.. Russell said enough
tubes would be available for receiy-
ing sets to maintain at least one
radio set in every home. Despite
wartime operational and manpoWer
problems, he explained that the in
duStry has been able to carry on
without shutting down one station.
Commercials Value Told.
The Government has discovered
Mr.. Russell continued, that CONNER
clal programs are the best for get
ting over messages. And that the
head Of Owls radio section revealed
that within the next six months
commercial programs would give
over three hundred million dollars
worth of time to the war effort.
Louis Krakow, president, intro
duced the speaker. Horace Walker,
executive secretary of the District
Salvage Committee. made a brief
talk in which he urged a more in
tensified salvage effort in the indus
tries, business houses and homes of
the city.

ing were Morgan Beatty, Richard
EarkneSS and Capt. Thomas knode,

In Britain, compulsory savings have been running at e gait of less than 2 per cent of national income; in Canada, around 1 per cent.

 In Britain and Canada, with each new tax increase has come an accompanying appeal for more, not less, war-savings in- vestments by individuals. And the rate of war savings has steadily risen since the start of the war. At most recent reports, the outlay by small war savers was running to 10 per cent of the national income in Britain, nearly il per cent in Canada.

 The war requires, in addition
 to heavy taxation. large-scale in-
 vestment of savings in War Bonds

NEW ALGERIAN
 GOV. GEN. SEEN
Marcel PeyroutOn Looms as Next Official; Might
 Heal Any Breaches
BY c. R. CUNNINGHAM United Press Staff Correspondent

Algiers, Jan. IS -(UP)-- = Reliable sources said today that Marcel Pey- routon minister of the interior Ee- fore the fall of France, soon would become governor general of Algeria, a post tantamount, under the new French African regime, to civil ad- 1ninistrator of all North Africa.
 It was learned that Peyrouton had arrived in Africa from South America, where he formerly was French ambassador to Argentina. He was understood to have come here several months before the AL lied landings, but his movements had been secret.
 French sources believed appoint ment of Peyrouton as governor of Algeria would hasten agreement be- tween Gen. Henri Honore Giraud, African high commissioner, and Gen. Charles De Gaulle, leader of the Fighting French. A source close to Giraud said arrangements for an agreement had been completed and that the African political situa- tion would be settled within two weeks.
 Another informed French source said the choice of Peyrouton, who signed the order for the arrest of Pierre Laval when Laval was ex- pelled from the French cabinet on Dec, 13, 1940, was the wisest of all the French leaders available for the governorship.
 Peyrouton's arrival here demon strated that he was acceptable both to Giraud and the De Gaullists. Even more important; observers emphasized, was that he was ac- ceptable to the Allies who, although having no plans for occupation" of North Africa, would not permit French politics to interfere with any military or political plans.
 Selection of Peyrouton for the governorship was taken as an indi- cation that Giraud and Dc Gaulle were ending their differences and 1t was predicted that an agreement would be reached within a fort night.

The Price Tag on Victory F: s s ss

one of the most remarkable developments in this country since Pearl Harbor has been the spread of the payroll deduction method of buying War Bonds, in which an ernploye authorizes his employer to take a regular sum for the purpose from his pay. At the start of the year, just 100000 workers were signed up, with aver age aIlotments of only { per cent | of their pay. By November IS, the total had rocketed to 23,OO0, ,OOO workers in 156,0OO firms. laying aside an average of 8 per cent. That very day, Q nationwide campaign be- gan which set its sights well above even this impressive mark.
 Is 1t unreasonable to ask Ameri- cans to step up their War Bond buy ing still further, at a time when sharply increased personal taxes for almost all of us are just around the corner? It would seem not, if the experience of our Canadian and British allies in any index. When our new taxes do go into effect, we shall for the first time begin to give out for war at a rate approaching that of plain John Citizen in Canada and Great Britain.
 Our English speaking brothers -in-arrns this year are putting roughly three times as large a proportion of their national in- come into national taxes as we are about 28 per cent in Great Britain, 20 per cent in Canada, 8 per cent in the United States. Even with the addition of local taxes, which are especially heavy here, the current tax outlay in those two countries is still half again as large as 1t is here--less than one sixth of the national income in the United States, but more than one fourth in Britain and Canada taken together.
 Tn the coming year, estimates are that tax payments in this country will jump to nearly one fifth of the national income, still somewhat below the British and Canadian proportions, which are slated to move slightly above their current levels.
