Rationing Of Liquor
Within Few Months
Predicted by Dealers
Association Officials
Soy Limited Supply
Will Force Action
By the Associated Press.

~ LAC A6SOClAvSo GICoSs
DETROIT, April 19.-Because
liquor dealers in every State now
realize that their supplies are
sharply limited for the wars dura-
ton, consumer rationing Of liquor
is inevitable within the next few
months.
This was the prediction Of Of
ficials of the National Alcoholic
Beverage Control Association which
opened its two-day semi-annual
convention here today.
ut won't be rationing by the
Office of Price Administration" said
John H. Law Of Chicago, executive
secretary Of the association. "be-
cause liquor is not an essential COM
modify. But dealers now realize
that their supplies are drastically
limited, without hope of resumption
in manufacture until the war ends" :"
I'm some sections, where the State
does not control sales" Mr.. Law
added, dealers had excess stocks
and they gave the impression there
was plenty of liquor. Many of these
dealers have used up their excesses
and some have started voluntary
rationing of customers"
The association is composed Of
Liquor Commission officials of 13
States which have State liquor mo-
nopolies, and Mr.. Law said it's sur
vey had proved that distillers we're
treating all States on equal basis
and not discriminating against mo-

New Fight for Funds
For Resources Board !
Opened by Senators
Majority Of Committee
Reported Supporting
Compromise Plan
BY the Associated Press.

BY tue ASSOcldteu ffeSs.
The National Resources Planning
Board, headed by President Roose-
vents uncle, Frederic A. Delano,
may get new lease on life through
an administration-backed compro-
mise reported to have majority sup
port within the Senate Appropria-
tions Committee.
Operations of the agency, threat
ened with extinction by House action
cutting off its funds, face attack in
the Senate from opponents of Its
"cradle-to-grave" social security
proposals, but administration lieu
tenants said they hoped to win ap-
proval of sufficient appropriation
to keep its planning activities alive.
The Budget Bureau originally ap-
proved 81 400 900 appropriation for
the new fiscal year, beginning July
l, but the House Committee elimi-
mated the entire amount and floor
move to restore $415, 900 was rejected
after Representative Taber, Repub-
lican OF New York charged the work
of the board was absolutely USE
less"
In the Senate committee, Acting
Chairman McKellar was reported
taking the lead in a move to amend
the $2,620 ,000, 900 independent offices
bill to reinsert a part of the funds
covered in the original request,
which were split $650,000 for the reg
ular work of the board, $725, 900 for
national defense activities and $685.
900 for printing and binding.
There was some indication also
that funds for another executive
agency, the Budget Bureau, might be
increased by the Senate group. The
House cut s1SO,OOO from the bureaus
requests despite protests by some
members that this would hamper
the work of an agency designed
primarily to enforce economies In

Congress Will Get
Preview Of Plans
For Food Conference
Acheson Will Explain
Purposes to Senate
= And House Committees
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Four congressional committees
will get private preview today
and tomorrow of President
Roosevelt's plans for postwar re-
construction of world agricul-
ture as they are expected to be
presented before the forthcom-
ing United Nations food confer
ence.
Assistant Secretary of State Dean
Acheson is scheduled to appear to-
day before a closed joint meeting
of the Senate Foreign Relations and
Agriculture Committees and tomor-
row before the corresponding House
groups to explain the purpose and
aims of the conference which will
meet at Hot Springs, Va, May 1s.
Chairman Fulmer of the House
Agriculture Committee said the State
Department had requested an op-
portunity to discuss the food parley
to which 43 nations have been in
vited to send delegates. -
Many Want Congress Represented.
There has been lot of criticism
In Congress Of the administrations
way of handling the conference, .
Representative Fulmer said. Many
members object because the Con-
gress is not represented on the Amer
lean delegation. They think Con-
gress should insist upon being rep
resented. Others object to the ex-
clusion OF the press from sessions
of the conference"
Mr.. Fulmer said the State De-
partment's request for the meetings
with the House and Senate COM
mittees was designed apparently to
quiet this criticism"
Congressional farm leaders ex-
pressed interest in reports that the
United States would propose an in
ternational AAA with power and
authority to promote production of
q balanced abundance of food for all
peoples. Many times in recent
years, Mr.. Roosevelt, Vice President
Wallace and Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wickard have expressed the
view that some form of interna-
sional cooperation should be estab-
hshed to guide and control agricul-
tural production in the interest of
producers as we'll as consumers.
Plan Called Idealistic.
Under plans outlined by Agricul-
sure Department experts, each
country would be encouraged to
concentrate on those commodities it
could produce most efficiently and
economically. The result, they say,
would be a sharp expension in con-
sumption and trade.
Representative Hope of Kansas,
ranking Republican member of the
House Agriculture Committee, said
such a plan was "idealistic if moth
ing else"
Most congressional farm leaders
said they wanted to know how the
American export market for farm
products might be affected. The
Agriculture Department has said
That I'VE can safely assume that
future peacetime exports of agricul-
tural products from the United
states will consist principally of the
same staple export crops as before
the war" Those crops consisted
principally Of cotton, wheat, to-
aacco, rice and fruits.

Texts of Addresses at Associated Press Meetinq

OF transmission thereof to their own
countries.
In stating briefly how this would
eradicate cause of war, I do so
only to emphasize what may be
within the knowledge of all news
men. Exclusive access to the news
of governments can only be gained
by a news service through its sub
ordination to the government that
affords such exclusive access. That
means the governments news story
can be told in only one way, the
governments way, with the result
ing perversion of the truth when
necessary to serve the government
purpose. Availability Of news at the
source, with the resulting competi-
ton in getting it and preparing it
for publication understandably, will
lead to honesty in news because
with the source open to all, the liar
will not expect to gain credence for
his tainted news. Thus the truth
shall prevail. And it is the truth
that makes men free. Governments
never have an easy time of melting
free men to war. Yes, If the truth
is not tampered with, men every
where will be free and there will be
less likelihood of war.
U. S. Press Should Awaken.
The American press should awaken
to this opportunity; it must attain
unity of purpose and it must estab-
lish leadership.
This, then, is an expression of
hope that whenever the day of
peace shall come, the world press
will seek its place in the sun. AS
truly as it has through lack of in
terest contributed to cause of war,
it can rise to this opportunity. It
must drop its passive role. It's in
terest must be intensively active.
And as for the press of this country,
the strongest newspaper force ever
developed in any nation must give
to all the world the principles of its
idealiSm.

KNUTSON BACKING
 RUML TAX SYSTEM
Continued from Page D

taxpayers by offering one rate oi discount to wealthy persons and . lesser one to the wage-earner and salaried person,
 Knutson answered those who con- tend that the Ruml- Carlson plan, by skipping years taxes, would cost the treasury large sums oi money, with this statement; "The president told the country several years ago that our national debt Is in fact not Q debt at all be. cause we owe 1t to ourselves, II that be true then 1t follows that in moving the tax clock forward, as is proposed In the Carlson bill, there will he no forgiveness In tax lla- bllity because we owe the tax to our. selves. In other words we merely forgive Q debt that we owe to our- selves"
 Debate on the tax bill opened amid predictions that the House would write Its own bill on some middle ground between complete forgiveness of years taxes and no forgiveness at all.
 All the major plans being consid- cred include Q 20 per cent withhold ing feature which probably will start July 1,
 The Ruml-Carlson plan would forgive . years taxes and put tax- payers on Q current basis through the withholding feature,
 The administration plan would begin withholding 20 per Cent from paychecks next July, but the only forgiveness would be in the form of . special six per cent peak discount this year, and lower discounts in future years, for those who volun- tarily place themselves on Q pay-as- you-go basis by doubling up on their l042 and l0a3 tax payments.
 Knutson vigorously attacked the special discount feature of the ad- ministration's bill,
 "Only those who have surplus cash on hand will be able to take advantage of the discount provisions and get themselves on a current basis," he said. TO the great masses of the people, who already are hav- Ing difficult time trying to pay one years tax, the committee bill offers no ray of hope, On the con- trary, they would virtually require them to continue to be one year he. hind In their tax payments.
 "Only well-to-do persons VIII De able to take advantage of the dis count provisions, which means . in their favor and against smaller, less fortunate tax payers. But that is not all the dis- It should DC maoe clear that once one of these flush taxpayers voluntarily gets on a cur rent basis Sy paying two years taxes in one, he will get the benetit of the discount provision the rest of his life by thereafter paying only one years tax in given year.
 "Thus. the committee bill offers A Lifetime bonus to well-to-do tax payers and in effect amounts to reduction in thstr tax.
 "The majority profess to abhor any forgiveness of tax liability put under their discount allowance the taxpayer who stays current for 20 years would actually receive one full year of tax forgiveness during the period.
 "Pray tell us, what more does the Carlson bill do?"
 Before debate began House Demo- cratic Whip Robert Ramspeck' D.. Ga, predicted that the house would reject koth the Carlson and admin" istration bills and write its own bill.
