day, will continue operations.
Yet if the committee was 10
award trophies for struggling
against handicaps, and for inn
provement in one year. the win
ners would be two of yesterdays
losers, pretty, blonde jeanne
Dunn, 16, from Dies Moines, Ia,
and southpaw Ira Sandperl OF st.
Louis, who limpS in one leg and
has a crippled right arm.
LUCK Is BAD
Pretty Miss Dunn, ranking
player of the Missouri Valley. has
visited Detroit two years in a
row. In 1913 she caught champion
Pauline Betz in the first round.
Yesterday the luck of the draw
put her against Miss Hart, third
in the national ranking.
Against Miss Betz the Dunn
service was inaccurate, her fore
hand savage but wild, the back
hand in the blue print stage.
Against Hart, Miss Dunn showed
a steady service. a strong fore
hand and a backhand of promise.
In the first set the Dunn shots
went out by inches and she lost.
6-1.' She made il a battle in the
second but again the luck of the
draw and the game turned
against her, CD.
For improvement invon sea-
son, jeanne gets the medal they
do not award. Sandperl treated
blond Stanley Adams, one of the
better of the public parks players,
to a 35-game struggle. winning
the middle set at 1913. losing the
others at 6-1, Ga. In spite of the
crippled arm and the limp, Sand
perl had a whale of a time and
went down smiling. For cold
pluck he also gets the spiritual
trophy since they do not award
a material.
Talbert did routine per-
Torrance in disposing of Ed Don
ovan, 60, 60. OF the newcomers,
Frank Brody from Des Moines,
possessor Of a tricky and varied
twist service, made the best i'm
preston in winning from Bill
Byrnes, Detroit, 6-1, 6-1.
Josephine Smilka, Hamtramck,
considered herself fortunate in
getting one game from Mary Ar
mold, Los Angeles. The scores
were 6-1. 60. Miss Bundy went
along easy in disposing of Betty
Hubert, st. Louis, CD, 6-2.

Bob Gillespie was the other
pitcher in the Tiger foursome.
The Indians also employed four
chuckers-Paul Calvert. Ed Klie-
man, Joe Heving and Allie Reyn-
olds. The latter. who worked the
last three innings, turned in the
best performance but Klieman
was the official winner.
Doc Cramer, Joe Hoover and
Lou Boudreau were the fielding
stars, the veteran Cramer doing
sensational somersault for

inning.

The USA pointed out that the
relative proportion Of the ma
tiOnal income for each group af-
ter payment of taxes does not
vary materially from the proper
ton before taxes, inasmuch as
"the burden that recent tax mea-
sures have placed upon individual
wage earners or salary employees
and farmers IL equal, II not i'm
excess, to the tax burden that has
been placed upon corporations"

SteelW0rkefS CHOSEN al RANDOM
was presented to the WLB this
week by Pres. Murray of the Unit
ed Steelworkers, in his brief sup
porting demands for IL cents an
hour wage increase and other
gains.
Pointing out that the average
steelworker is attempting to Co
operate Fundamentally in the gov
eminent war bond purchase pro-
gram, the USA said that probably
the most revealing feature Of the
study 1t conducted of family ex-
penditures is the information re-
garding the net savings Of the
workers.
1.-THE average weekly income
Of the steelwOrker's family, ac-
cording to the expenditure
sample which covered September
through November, 194S, was
$500. The total average weekly
expenditure was $58.57.
"The average family purchased
bonds of SAT- per week; paid So
cents on a previous debt, and other
wise saved 62 cents, or total Of
S5.91. The total average weekly ex-
penditures and savings was S64.4S.
1.-THE difference between this
total expenditure and total earn
ings had to be made up through
redeemed bonds of STA, the spend
ing of previous savings of S3.45,
borrowing money of SO cents, in
creased indebtedness at stores of
S1.33, and small balancing differ
ence.
I'm other words" and the union
bold-faced the remark" "the steel
workers during the period in
Dictated, with the highest weekly
hours enjoyed, and increased week.
ly earnings, are going into debt"
Significant also are the facts that
while the average straight time
hourly earnings for the steel in
dustry were $104, 63 per cent of
the workers have straight time
hourly earnings of S1.O5 or less,
and 81 per cent have straight time

cred, a taxpayer in the $1,000
5000 class paid out total Of IT'S
per cent of his income Federal,
state and local taxes.
At the same time, Congress has
completely ignored all the recon-
mendations President Roosevelt
made, In his seven point pro-
gram, In the five point message
of this year, and In repeated tax
messages, including the veto
message.
Thus, Congress repealed FDR's
order limiting individual incomes
to $4,000 a year, after taxes.
Joint mandatory returns, which
would prevent wealthy couples
from evading taxes, have not been
required. Tax exempt bonds still
stand. The rs per cent Ruml plan,
passed by Congress, gives the rich
huge tax WlHuidlI'
All of these evasions, refusals
and failures to do the job that a
realistic tax program could do
add up to new burdens on the
workers, the USA-CIO brief points
out, saying:
"The Congressional tax policies
which we have analysed I'M
doubtedly have tended to injure
the morale Of the people on the
domestic front. While wage cuts
have been imposed upon the low
income groups, industrial profits
have scared and the war Million
aires have multiplied"

or the families surveyed by the
union, S1.6 per cent did not have

per cent OF the families lacked
running water inside their homes.
Declaring that no one could say
that the average Steelworker enjoys
luxurious housing conditions, nor
gorges himself or food, nor dresses
like Park Avenue playboy, the
report cited that the steelworker's
family spends only 81 cents per
person for food, that the steelwoTk-
er buys only two pairs Of shoes a
year beside his work shoes, and
that he has 10 make a suit last 10
years.
WORKS HARDER FOR LESS
1.-THE steelworker finds that he
is working harder and longer pro-
ducing more steel in the interest
Of winning the war;" the USA said.
True he earns more money for
working such longer hours. but
his cost of living has gone up. He
has additional wartime problems.
His work clothing gets used up
much faster because he is work.
ing longer and because of the
poorer quality of the work clothes.
"He finds he wants to eat more
meat because he Is working
harder, but he discovers that he
is probably having less food be-
cause the smaller quantity re-
quireS much more money.
There are a lot Of taxes now
that he never had before. He must
pay more transportation expenses.
His repair work on his house costs
him more money because of the in
creased cost of materials. He also
finds that he can't save any money
but rather is going into debt"

and DEMENT'S, reflect q deliberate
sabotage of the national economic
sterilization policy" the brief
points out.
These two profits figures, cited
In the brief, show I'm q nutshell
how seriously the tax program
has failed to help mobilize the
c0untry's resources for war. In
peacetime (1936-39) profits after
taxes were $S.324 billion, in 1943,
$3.50 billion, In 1914, $500 bill
lion. In other words, profits after
taxes have increased three times
over peacetime figures.
A CONTRAST
BY way Of contrast, the brief
shows how taxes have increased
on the workers and other low in
come groups-an increase that is
the direct result of Congress re-
fusal to touch inflated profits and
lhSOiiGS.
Take o fairly well paid steel
worker, making $50 o week in
