 An Example
 Here's how it would work for Q married man with two children haV- ing Q net income of 5000 before personal exemptions:
 Under present law he would pay e27b tax. This includes S76 "nor. nal" tax based on three per cent of &2,B00 after taking Q 9600 personal exemption. He would get credit for dependentS-S500 each or Q total Of A2,000-in figuring the Surtax. Fig lired at % per cent on the remaining 9i, 900 would amount to s200,
 The Senate committee bill would cut his tax to eio0. He would got credit for dependents in figuring the normal tax, aS well aS the Burtax, That would cut his total taxable income in either case to 9i,000, The three per cent noTmayl tax on 1000 would Do so. The surtax rate would be cut from % to i7 per cent. The surtax then would Do i70. F'orgiviilg five per cent of the resulting liabil- ity would bring lt down 10 more to 6 total tax payment of 100.

 Urge Return
 The House appropriations coIns mittee, which drafted the bill, had included c provision to return USES to the states 90 lays after enact- to the states 90 days after enaot- ment service was taken over by the federal government under Q pres. identlal executive order immediate ly after Pearl Harhor. State officials have asked that lt be returned,
 Tn the legislative program he transmitted to Congress last month, Mir. Truman asked that USES Do kept under federal administration until July l, io47. Faced with cor. tain defeat on that request, House Democratic leader John W. Mo. Cormack of Massachusetts asked the House yesterday to defer the shift until next July l.
 Mccormack argued that his pro. posal would leave the service under federal control until most serVices men and war workers had been de- moblilDed. His amendment was re-. jected by c vote of i02 to i0i.
 Senate concurrence appeared cers tain because that chamber already has voted to return USES to the states. However, the senate vote came on on amendment to the Adnninlstra- tion's unemployment benefit bill which has been pigeon.holed in the House.
 RankinS surprise move came Just before tho vote oii passage of the bill. 'Hc offered c rider to provide for dBchArge upon application Of servlcemen who hAG served more than i0 months, those who had wives, childOn or dependent parents and those whose education had been interrupted by service in the armed forces.
 Rep, Emmett o'Noal, D., Ky, raised Q parliamentary objection to Rankln'S propoSal. Rep, TTits LAn. ham, D., rex, who waS proSlding In committee of the whole, sustained O'Nealk objection.
 Rankin then restored to the sol. dom used device of appealing the ruling to tho HouSo. By . voice vote, the House upheld LanhAtn.

OriticiSlng the present adminis- tration for the methods used in en- acting the present pension plan at 0 'dawn-to-dusk' session of the Gen. eral Assembly last June, Raymond Y. Snyder, Republican nominee for mayor, last night promised, if elect- cd, to seek fair and sound legislative changes in the bill in the l947 leg islative session.
 Added Burdens
 Tn his second campaign speech over station VERY, the c, o, P, mayoralty candidate charged that the present bill not only removed the benefits to which city employees are entitled, but also imposes larger burdens on them. He said he favored altering the present law to provide reserves, and "no special few should receive special or gratuitous pen- sions,"
 According to MT, Snyder, proper municipal budgeting would set up reserves annually to meet the cost of pensions which accrue annually

Defeated Germany Has Work.Fi||ed Future; Has
 Been Shornof War Tools

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3-Defeated Germany stared today into a Spartan, work-filled future, shorn of airplanes, shipping and all war making potential. She nevertheless can hope for eventual return to the worlds family of nations.
 That is the pattern laid down for her by President Truman, Prime Minister Attlee and Generalissimo Stalin in their Potsdam con- munique.
 All the sting and venom of the Reich is to be removed. This in- cludes all Nazi organizations, all the German Army, Navy aid Air Corps, all of Germany's once-rich Merchant Marine and commercial air service, and all arms produc- ton.
 Chemical and metallurgical in- dustries which count in war poten- tial are to be strictly controlled, as
