Taxes

Sidering also moving the date for
filing returns back from March Is
to an earlier date and the possibil-
ity Of persons with income other

for one year in the subsequent year
by single payment at the time of
filing the return, or, at the cleo
ton Of the taxpayer on monthly
basis instead of the present quar-
terly payments"
Consolation TOO Big a Price"
On the committees failure to ap-
prove any tax aba tement, Chairman
Doughton said cancellation of a
whole tax year is too big price 70
pay for pay-as-you-go.'
Representtive Knutson. Repub-
lican, of Minnesota, telling news
papermen that he spoke for the nine
Republican committeeman support
ing the Ruml plan, issued state
ment saying;
The plan adopted by the COM
mittee will be a great disappoint-
ment to taxpayers who have been
urging that personal income tax
payments be placed on a current,
pay as we earn basis.
The mountain has labored and
brought forth a mouse. All the COM
mittee has done is to continue the
present archaic system of collecting
the income tax the year after the
income is earned. No taxpayers
are made current They will con-
tlnue to be year or more in debt
for their income tax. In fact, the
committee plan will even POSTPONE
the final settlement Of a taxpayers
liability until IS months after the
close of the tax year.
1T is obvious that the House will
have to take the matter into it's
own hands if taxpayers are to be
made current.
Will Support Carlson Bill.
THE minority (of the committee)
will support the Carlson bill which
embraces the fundamentals of the
Ruml proposal and will make all
the taxpayers current with no doub-
ling up of tax payment.
Our principal objective Is to
make all taxpayers current or nearly
SO, so that when the Nations present
earning power is back to normal lev
els few will be called upon to paw
the tax OF fat year in a lean
year"

From Government
By the Associated Press.

BS The Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y, March 1O-Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey criticized to-
day what he termed an "intol-
cradle" struggle between Federal
agencies for control of pro-
gram to care for children of
mothers in war industry, and
announced New York itself will
plan their supervision.
New York State no longer will
wait upon Washington" he said in
a statement. TT will proceed to
solve its own problems. hoping the
Federal Government will, some day,
carry out its promise"
Governor Dewey explained the
Federal Works Agency promised last
December 100 per cent financing OF
State child care programs, under
the Lanham Act. In an announce
ment February l3, he said, this
promised contribution was cut to so
per cent, with slight additional aid
pledged In some cases.
During the year, the Governor
added, two main Federal agencies
Social Security and Federal Works
have been conducting bitter
struggle for control Of the program. ~
He listed other agencies involved
as the Department OF Labor, the
Federal Housing Administration the
United States Public Health Service,
the Food Distribution Administra-

flee Of Civilian Defense, the WPA,

Several Republicans, however,
among them Representative Eaton,

minority member OF the House
Foreign Affairs Committee, argued
against its adoption.
Apparently in realization that
they we're outnumbered, several
members who had planned to offer
other amendments gave up the fight

The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee meanwhile wrote into its
favorable report on a companion
bill warning that Congress reserves
its constitutional authority to review
and ratify any agreements executive
agencies make on postwar economic
policies.
Representative Vorys advanced his
rider to set up the machinery for
teamwork" between Congress and
the President.
we know now he declared, that
we cannot expect benefits from our
lease-lend aid in the form of pay
ment of money or goods. We know
that the greatest benefit to come
from it will be the winning of the
war
But he argued there are other
benefits that might be drawn after
the war which might vitallv affect
this Nations economic, foreign and
domestic policy.
Don't Recognize Commitments
Chairman Connally of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee tcld
reporters that before unanimously
approving his lease lend resolution
the committee directed insertion in
the accompanying report statements
he interpreted as serving notice that
the Senate expects major postwar
economic policy agreements to be
submitted to it in the form of
treaties
The gist Of the statement is that
we don't recognize the authority of
. the lease lend organization to make
commitments binding the United
States as to postwar economic
policy he said.
Previously Senator Nye, Republi-
can, OF North Dakota, had told re-
porters the order for the insertions
was provoked by the inclusion in
the original report of a quotation
from the master agreement" nego-
tiated by the State Department with
/ Great Britain on lease lend
/ The committee said that Article
/ VII Of this master agreement, pledg-
/ ing postwar cooperation with Great
Britain to carry out the economic
| objectives set forth in the August
II, l94l, agreement between Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Prime Minister
Churchill, indicates the type of
economic action which may be con-
templated."

j. H. Sissons, Liberal member of
Parliament for Peace River, Al

The interest of the United States
in the Alaska Highway and it's re-
lated projects would not cease with

in an address prepared for delivery
to service club.
He predicted that the United
States would continue to be inter-
ested in the development of the
Peace River country and other areas
of Northern Alberta, British Colum-
bia, the Yukon and Northwest Ter
ritories with which it has become
familiar through wartime activities.
Want to Come Back.
Pointing out that settlers from
the United States played a large
part in the development OF the
Peace River country, Mr.. sissons
said they will undoubtedly play a
larger part in the development Of
the future"
Il have been told by Americans
working in the Alaska highway that
about a third of the men express
their intention OF coming back to
the country after the war. They
will be welcomed because we know
the Americans in the past have
made good settlers >" he said.
Canada had contributed to the
defense OF Alaska by the construc-
ton of airf1elds through the north
Mr.. Sssons said. He added that
the Canadian and American forces
IN Alaska were being gathered there
not only for defense but also Ito
stab at the heart of Japan"

To supply Oil a pipeline was being
laid from Fort Norman, N. w. T,
to Whitehorse, Y. T., distance of
425 miles, with refinery at White

He added that a winter road from
Grimshaw, Alta, to Providence on
Great Slave Lake had been i'm
proved during the last six months,
and new winter roads built from
Providence to Fort Norman with the
possibility that some portions at
least would be made into ll-weather
roads.
A telephone-telegraph line had
been constructed from the United
States to Alaska to permit direct
contact with Washington, Mr.. Sis
sons said.
