BAD TIMING

Under the provision OF the tax
law. If losses over a sustained
period Of months result they can
be carried back and become the
basis Of refunds 10 the corpora
tion of taxes previously paid.
Moreover, during the transitional
period, the need for manpower IS
obviously not as great as IT will
be next year after reconversion
has been completed Fer these
reasons. some of the old line
union leaders think that their
confrcreS showed bad sense of
timing.
Possibly the impression that
the work StoppageS Will not be
financially disastrous to the earn
ings of corporations has created
an atmosphere of bulliShneSS de-

But the protractcd rise in stock

been associated simply with an

the stock market is principally

Bloom Resolution
To Ask Celebration
Marking End Of War
BY Will P. KENNEDY

Chairman Sol Bloom of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee today
announced he is drafting a resolu-
ton for new era celebration and
Victory day spectacle in Washington
which he said will arrest the atten-
ton of the entire world.
He proposes creation of a commits
sion of nine members to consider
plans for demonstration in this
new worlds capital" serving as a
power house" in which "a lever
will be pulled switching on similar
demonstration of rejoicing peoples
everywhere over newborn freedom. -
He contemplates the appointment
Of three House members by the
Speaker, three Senate members by
the Senate president protein, and
three by the President, to lay out
program for "a spectacle that will
give expression to the will of all
people for democratic self govern
ment.'
Mr.. Bloom thus joins the national
leaders rallying behind a proposal
made originally by The Star that
Washington take the lead in a
Victory day celebration that will
honor all Americas heroes in the
war.
Mr.. Bloom said: The Capital of
the United States must lead this
great jubilee-the greatest the world
has ever seen, because we are enter
ing upon NV era, with militarism
crushed, with Allied nations pos
sessing punative might to crush out
any attempt at future aggression by
any nation, and with the world
wide spirit of brotherhood of man
seeking expression in action.
Il will be grateful for an oppor-
tunity to have part in such demon
stration, and welcome suggestions
from any source as to how it can
best be DONE"
He foresees that schools. churches,
patriotic organizations, States, mu-
inequalities, and other people gen.
orally will be eager to join in the
greatest period of public rejoicing,
as an outward sign of the inward
grace OF a rebirth of hope in human
hearts. The celebration in Wash
ington should be of "at least a
weeks DURATION Mr.. Bloom feels.
The spiritual significance of a
worldwide celebration appeals es-
pecially to Mr.. Bloom, who suggests
that the proper date would be March
81, the vernal equinox, "the rebirth
of life," at the beginning of spring.
