that the company was producing

ment, and falsifying tests and in
spection records
The company replied at the time
that it had never delivered ito the
government, or any one else, pro-
ducts known to have contained de-
fective or substandard parts.''
The committee report charged
Freulich with abetting the COM
pany's alleged practices, with max
ing misstatements of fact to the
committee and attempting to in
timidate other witnesses.
Subsequently, Undersecretary OF
War Patterson issued a statement
asserting that as far as could be
determined, no defective engines
had actually been placed in serv.
ice by the Army, but that "vigor.
GUS remedial action" including the
removal of two of the inspecting
officers, had been taken by the
Army three months previously.

or the regular return.
In this simplification effort, the
committee is seeking:
/. To retain, SO far as possible,
the present tax burden against all
levels of income, dropping few if
any of the 50,0C0,000 victory and
income taxpayers from the tax
rolls.
2. migrating the present VIC
tory, normal and surtaxes into one
simple rate.
This latter provision is expected
by the Congressional tax experts
to provide substantial relief for
the 100000 persons in higher in
come brackets who probably will
continue to file annual returns.
Nothing in the sirnplification pro-
gram would affect the returns on
1943 income due before March IS.
Doughton said the Congressional
tax staff and Treasury tax ex-
perts were working Tin perfect
harmony" This contrasted with his
statement during the tax veto bat
tie last week that irresponsible
theorists" in the Treasury were to

10 Mile Push
The war bulletin listed the dis
trict center of Vishnevets, 26 miles
northeast of Tarnopol, among the
towns which fell to the Soviet
troops. This represents a westward
push of 10 miles into old Poland.
Russian troops appeared to be
driving swiftly towards Tarnopol
and Proskurov, which are both
junction points on the Odessa-Lwow
line and therefore more important
to the German defense system
than Volochisk.
The fresh offensive in this sector
shifted Soviet public attention from
the slow battle for the Baltic,
where the Red army had been re.
tarded by begging thaw and stiff
fleming German resistance.
The German news agency DNB,
describing the Ukraislian battle,
said 1.-THE counter measures by
which the enemy is to be repulsed''

situation and they should be rec.
commended for their action.
| At the close of the meeting
there was no indication that. the
matter of public election would
be brought before the board for
reconsideration.
In DR.. Vessels report. he stated
that much conversation had come
to him concerning the possibility OF
the county taking over one OF the
Army-constructed hospitals in this
area for use after the war. He
stated that these hospitals are con-
structed ''inadequately' for treat
ment and care of patients suffer-
ing with tuberculosis.
According to DR.. VESSEL. more
than 1900 patients have been treat
ed at the local sanitorium in the
course of more than 80 years serv-
ice. Since 1880, the sanitorium
treated more than 700 patients, I'M
til June, 1912, when the hospital
was closed upon the installation
of the Army Air Base here.
DR.. VESSEL said that mot even
OPA'' could place ceiling on sick
ness and death. He stated that he
could not argue with Mr.. Coleman
on his abilities as contractor but
he asked that the matter OF a pub
lie election be left to the people,
and let them decide whether or
not the hospital should be built at
this time. He requested the board
to let the facts and figures speak
for themselves. The doctor stated
that he had not been consulted un-
til about 1880 o'clock yesterday
morning about any Information
concerning the hospital.
He stated that his report should
not be mis-construed as a personal
issue. although the mis- under
standing arose toward the end OF
the discussion.
