Tariff Powers
Defeat Looms
Administration
Move Nay Lose

WASHINGTON, April 19-(P)
Republicans claimed to d v
they would be joined by enoungh
Democrats to defeat an admins
tration request Tor broad new
powers to pare tariffs.
Administrations, on tn e
other hand, voiced confidence
the appeal of Cordell Hull and
the stand by President Truman
had rallied sufficient strength
to assure the new executive VIC
tory in his first congressional
battle.
Rep. Knutson -Minn) told
reporters he expecte d three
Democrats to join the 10 House
Ways and Means Republicans to
give the opposition majority in
the 25-member committee.
Countering tson, Rep.
Robertson (D-Va) said he would
be surprised if one Democrat
Voted with the Republicans in
committee.
Hull, writing from Naval Hos
pital where he has been a patient
since his retirement as Secretary
of State, told Ways and Means
Chairman Doughton Cd N c.
that action on the tariff bill will
be lone of the decisive tests Of
whether the United States is pre-
pared to assume its share of the
responsibility of creating t h e
basic conditions upon which en-
during peace depends.
Hull expressed confidence
that eve shall again let the
world know that we will not
fail to play our full part in
bringing about the conditions
necessary for prosperity and a
lasting peace"
Republicans argued, mean
while, that the reciprocal trade
program, begun in 1884, had
failed to increase employment
through larger world trade and
had not prevented war. Knutson
told Assistant State Secretary
Will Clayton yesterday "You are
trying to sell us a pig in the
poke"
The new tariff proposal is an
amendment to legislation that
would tend the reciprocal
trade act three years beyond
June IL. 1t would permit exist
ing tariffs to be reduced up to
so per cent in negotiating trade
agreements with other nations.
Nelson Rockefeller, Assistant
Secretary of State dealing with
Latin American affairs, was
called as the second administra-
ton witness. He will be followed
by Commerce Secretary Henry
A. Wallace. The hearings prob
ably will run three weeks, with
so or more witnesses.

Swift Versatile A-26 Invader
is Army's Ace Sfrdfing Weapon
BY S. BURTON HEATH
NEA Staff Correspondent

FLORENCE, S. c. What
Hitler's Stukas did to the Poles,
The French and the British in
1899 was gentle and loving in
contrast with what our new A
26 Invader" bomber-strafer will
do 10 the Nazis, if they do not
capitulate soon, and to the Japs
in any event.
The Stuka, you may remem-
Der, was devastating against the
Allies at the outbreak of the war,
when it could dive bomb front
line troops and installations vir-
tually without opposition. 1t dis
appeared from the news because,
once we got pursuit planes and
anti-aircraft defenses into play,
the Stuka was clay pigeon for
our gunners. 1t lacked the speed
and maneuverability and versa
tility required for the job.
The A-26 was ordered by our

to do what the Stukas and our
own A-24s' could have done il
defenders had been willing to
sit idly around and be shot up
- that is, to knock out enemy
ground installations and clear
the way for advancing ground
troops.
The Invader Is capable of do
ing this job. 1t has proven, in
practise, to be the fastest bomb
err in the air - faster, in fact,
than most of the enemy's pur-
suit planes. It carries a heavy
bomb load. It's strafing firepower
is terrific and it has a better
range than either the AGO or
the BIG.
Exact statistics on the AIS
are restricted for security rea-
sons. It can be said, however,
that its speed, range and bomb
load all are so great that it seems
unbelievable that they could
have been combined in a single
aircraft.
169 HITS
Moreover-and this Is one of
the things that will help to make
the Invader famous once it gets
into combat in greater numbers
- the plane has three alterna-
tive noses, one for bombing and
two for strafing, that can be
changed with amazing quickness
to adapt the same plane for diff
fering types of use.

LANSING, April 19-@-
Senate interest in "dry" legisla-
ton was emphasized today as
that chamber sent to the House a
new Sunday closing proposal
and prepared to debate sitter
enforcement bill and a measure
Ito take the state out of the Ii
quor business"
The Senate passed 20 to 8 a
bill permitting referenda every
four years in any county, city,
village or township on the ques-
ton of forbidding the sale of
beer and wine between 2 a. m.
Sunday and midnight of that
day. The sale of hard liquors
now may be banned by referen-
dunn.
The measure went over to the
House Liquor Committee from
which few Senate bills have re-
appeared this session. Senator
Murl H. DeFoe, Charlotte Re-
publican and chairman of the
Senate Liquor committee, has
asserted the House Liquor COM
mittee, is unnecessarily friendly
to the liquor interests.
MAY VOTE TODAY
In addition to shepherding the
Sunday closing plan through,
DeFoe was one of the movers
behind the two liquor measures
ready for debate and a possible
vote today.
One would take the state out
of the business of selling liquor,
leaving it only the duty of ware
housing shipments of liquor and
holding them for private dealers.
The state would continue to re-
ceive a tax from the liquor.
Previous similar proposals have
fallen down in the face of fears
it would reduce state revenues.
The other bill is the Admins
tratiOn's measure to create a
panel to hear violations, leaving
the Liquor Control commission
freer for administrative matters.
1t would provide for sitter en-
forcement, the licensing of wait
resses and possibly bartenders.
The administrators $5,813,-
700 building bill cleared the
Senate and went to the House,
the last important budget bill
originating in the Senate to pass
that chamber. It included:
University of Michigan, gen.
eral service building for admin
istration, classrooms and radio
studios, $l,500,000; Michigan
State College, 100000 class
room building and $81, 900 poul-
try house; Michigan College of

earlier 100000 grant for dormi-

near Myrtle Beach, on the South
Carolina coast. Two planes, in
Guiding that pilotcd by Capt.
William S. Derrick Of ST. Louis,
with whom l flew, had bomb re-
lease trouble and did not drop
their missiles. Of the ITO hun
dred-pound practise bombs drop
ped, 169 fell into a small portion
of the target. The other was so
close that, if it had carried the
standard demolition charge, it
would have damaged the simu-,
lated Jap ammunition dump.
We made our bombing run at
a speed of only about 800 miles
an hour. But we weren't trying
for speed. In a previous strike,
we were told, the pilots really
opened up, though still below
the planes capacity, and found
that the Invader was too fast, at
10000 feet altitude, for the avail
able bomb sight.
1t was on this previous strike
that our speedy P-40's, simulat-
ing an attack on the Invaders,
found time for only one difficult
pass at the formation before the
bombers. completed their mis-
sion, banked and dove into real
speed, and streaked for home.
But bombing is only one phase
of the Invaders versatility. The
other is strafing. For that the
A-26 can be given alternative
ornaments. The combinations
range from as many as ten so
calibre machine guns, through
four machine guns and two high
velocity 1922. cannons, to six
machine guns and one 75-mm.
cannon.
Four of the machine guns are
mounted in versatile control. for
defense primarily. On our flight
the gunner, Corp. Almo l.. Smith
of Electra, Tex, used them to
follow the P-40s that were haz-
ing us at the end of the bombing
run. The rest Of the armament
is fixed to point forward and is
operated by the pilot for Of
fensive purposes. If the defen-
sive guns are not needed for that
purpose they can be added to the
complement for strafing.
This unprecedented strafing
equipment is combined with
speed, at tree-top level, such that
no anti aircraft weapon could
touch the Invader except by in
tense concentration or accident,
and few pursuit planes could
overtake it. With the maneuyer-
ability of which Invader pilots
boast, the plane is capable of
doing great damage to the en-
envy with minimum risk to its
crew. In addition to these safety
factors, the A-26 is equipped
with heavy armor plate.
The Invader has been in linn
tied use over France and Ger
many since last October. In view
of the present status of the war,
the characteristics of the plane,
and the fact that the simulated
bridgehead we attacked was Jap
anese, it seems certain that the
Japs will see much more of this
plane. to their discomfort, than
the Germans will.
