The grant was made during ses-
sion of the International Aviation
conference here last week, attended
by so of the worlds leading nations.
In addition to granting the United
States the right to establish air
bases and to build airfields in Con-
go, West Africa, DR.. Joe T. Thomas,
president of the Congo Free State
Government in exile, urged the
United States to become the ad-
ministrator of Congo territory,
known as Belgian Congo, but op-
posed "any member of the British
empire holding the Congo Free
State"

coming our administrator" read
supplementary resolution released
by President Thomas, a Detroit
physician, because England is in
sympathy with Belgium and is now
holding our territory for Belgium
in exile and would be prejudiced
against our provisional government
having jurisdiction over our terri
tory which now constitutes the Bel
gian Congo and the mandates of
Ruanda and Urunda."
If the United States does not want
the Belgian Congo, which DR.. Thom-
as believes is "the moral response
bility of the United States" he sug-
gested that three-nation commits
sion, made up of the United States,
Russia and Brazil, assume the re-

affairs of Congo territory.

Congo Free State government in

"The Provisional Government of

and grants the United States gov

bases and build airfields in the Con-
go Free State and to hold them as
long as the United States needs
them, details to be worked out
later"
Since the nations assembled at
the international aviation confer

why "this provisional government

Bessemer Steel Production
Seen Staging Comeback
Ey the Associated Press

NEW YORK. Feb. 23.-Bessemer
steel production. which has stead
lily declined from its once-domi-
nant position, is coming back into
its own, the American Institute OF
Mining and Metallurgical Engineers
was told today.
In paper prepared for delivery
before the Institutes annual meet
ing, E. c. Wright, assistant to the
president of National Tube Co., de-
clared new and wider uses for Bes-
semer steel are being found due to
the development of improved con-
trolls by metallurgists of his COM
pany.
He outlined a killing" process
which thoroughly deoxidizes the
steel. Bessemer heats so treated. he
said, were found to be of good forg-
ing quality and could be rolled into
tube rounds and satisfactory seam
less tubes with practices equaling
results obtained on open hearth
steels.
Bessemer steel in 1900 accounted
for 65.7 per cent of the Nations total
steel production; in 1887 it account
ed for only 6.8 per cent of the total.

Nazis S|ay 80 Civilians
In ReprisaIs in Italy

Ey the Associated Press.
NAPLES, Feb. 23.-The govern
ment Of Marshal Pietro Badoglio
said today that about 80 women
children and old people were slain
by German patrol troops Monday at
the village of SAINT Agata, few
miles north of German lines on the
British 9Th Army front.
Names of the victims, the an
nouncement said, came from three
survivors and other eyewitnesses of
the slayings, which were carried out
in reprisal for the operations OF
patriot Italian troops behind Ger
| man lines.
The report said 12-man German
patrol broke into house occupied
by several families at am, made
them get out of bed and brought in
women, children and an aged Italian
from nearby houses. The troops
then threw hand grenades into the
building, after which they re- entered
and set fire to the bodies with
torches. ...e
A 16-year-old war orphan, Nico-
letta di Luzio, who was hidden under
the body of her mother, escaped to

Your u. 5. Income Tax
This Is No. So of a Series

(This Is No. So of a Series.)
If an income tax return is not
made and filed within the time
prescribed by law, or prescribed by
the commissioner Of internal revenue
in pursuance of law, a certain per
cent of the amount of the tax is
required to be added to the tax.
For failure to file timely income
tax return the amount to be added
to the tax is per cent if the delay
is Tor not more than 80 days, with
an additional 5 per cent for each
additional 30 days or fraction thereof
during which failure to file return
contiIues. not to exceed a total of
Is per cent. This addition will not
be imposed, however, If the taxpayer
can show to the satisfaction of the
commissioner that the delay was due
to a reasonable cause and not to
willful neglect.
A taxpayer who files tardy re-
turn and wishes to avoid the addi-
ton to the tax for delinquency must
make an Affirmative showing of all
facts relied on as reasonable cause
for failure to file the return on
time. in the form of an affidavit
which should be attached to the re-
turn. Alleged ignorance of the law
Is not a reasonable cause for de-
linquency.
II an extension OF time for filing
Is desired the request for the ex-
tension should be submitted to the
collector in ample time so that If,
for any reason, the extension is not
granted, the return can still be fled
on time.
Since employers are required to
file with the Bureau of Internal
Revenue duplicate of the "em-
ploye's receipt" furnished each en-
ploye on form W., showing how
much income tax has been withheld
during 1943, and since other persons
making substantial payments to in
dividuals for interest, rent, annuities
ETC., on which income tax is not
withheld. must file information re-
turns on form 1899, showing the
amount of the payments made, tax
payers should make every effort to
file their returns within the time
prescribed by law and thus avoid
the possibility of the additions tc
the tax being made for delay in
filing.
These information returns are
carefully checked with individual
returns of taxpayers. Thousands
OF delinquent returns and additiona
revenue amounting to millions oi
dollars have been secured as the
result of the examination of in
formation returns.

see Miller IRE the fatal shots and
that In his opinion the position Of
the two men In the car would have
made 1t impossible for anybody to
see exactly what happened.
Chief Machinist Mate William A
Stearns, second witness, told the
jury 1t was his impression that
Miller got out Of the car and his
wife followed. The attorney walked
about IS feet toward r street, he
said, then turned around and came
back. Stearns said he seized Miller'a
right arm and held it until Dicker-
son arrived and placed him under
arrest.
Miller appeared composed during
the inquest, leaning over to confer
with his partners from time to time
He showed interest when the blood
smeared envelope in which the Sec
ond gun was found was examined by
Mr.. Hughes, rising from his seat to
obtain 4 better view of 1t. At vari-
GUS times he turned sideways in his
chair to glance at the well-filled
hearing room.
Miller Mingles With Crowd.
Only seldom did he tap his fingers
on his chair and at one stage he
swallowed q pill after a Morgue en-
ploye brought him two paper cups of
water. While the six-man Jury was
celebrating Miller mingled with the
crowd Of attorneys. reporters, police
ofncials and spectators, most OF
whom he knew. A police sergeant
followed him at distance Of about
six feet, but it was never obvious
that he was under police guard. He
might have been in his usual role
OF counsel, rather than defendant.
During the hearing Capt. Robert
Pierce of the first precinct sat
within the railing directly behind
Miller, and Maj. Edward Kelly, chief
OF police, was among the spectators.
Miller seemed concerned about
how his wife would receive the ver-
dict, evidently fearful she might
lose her composure.
Make sure she's away from here
before they bring in the verdict"
he said to Mr.. McMenamin. and
seemed relieved when the younger
attorney assured him Mrs. Miller
already had left the Morgue.
