BRETON Pd(t
Charges Government
Is Misleading Public

WASHINGTON June 25 lNS)
Senator Taft ,Rl Of ONO de-
olaIed today that the American
public had received false impress
Ion Of the BRETON Woods fnan-
eisl agreements because oi the
propaganda pat oHt by the state
and treasury departments
Their opinion would be very
different" he added III they
could have heard the damning
criticism offered by leading pro-
feSsorS OF economics. bankers
and independent economists"
SENATE TESTIMONY
The senator referred TO iesti-
rony before the Senate banking
committee last week on the ad-
ministration hill for L. s pRrtici-
patton in the Breton Woods agree

Propaganda hy the government

for all foreign trade difficulties
and an insurance OF peace.
The Senate banking committee
expects 10 conclude hearings on
the bill this week and 10 take II
up IN closed sessions for the pur-
pose Of reporting II 10 the Senate.
WOULD RUSH ACTION
Administration leaders want 10
rush action on the bill, which has
been passed by the House.
One apparent reason is that
President Truman would like TO
take with HIM 10 the coming Big
Three conferences as many evi-
dences as possible Of the willing
ness of the United States 20 ION

The bill would set up an So. 500

siruclon and development.
In summing up-the testimony
OF IL opposition witnesses last
week, Taft said
Most of these WitnesSeS
favored the interna tional bank,
hut they ell criticized the inter
national fund as completely
unsound method Go secure the
. desired obJectives of currency
stability and the removal of
exchange restrictions on inter
national trade.
REFUTED EXPERTS
They entirely disagrer with
the So-called experts of the
treasury. none of whom has had
any experience in actual bank
ing or foreign exchange trans r.
actions.
I'm general. the witnesses
testified that the purposes Of
the fund could not possibly he

1T authorizes and legaliLes

removing them,
"It permits and sanctions de-

President Is Reported
Opposed 10 Ceilings
|0n Home Construction
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Real estate men welcomed today
as pointing toward widespread home
construction two developments
against OPA Administrator Chester
Bowles' plea for price ceilings on
houses These were.
Word that President Truman has
sided with Reconversion Director
Snyder, who wants no price ceilings
on houses, and statement by Sem
ator Wagner, Democrat, of New
York that he has no present plans
to introduce legislation providing
for ceilings.
Herbert U. Nelson, executive vice
president of the National Associa-
ton of Real Estate Boards, said that
with the schedule lifting on October
13 of wartime controls on construc-
ton, other controls may be expected
to follow these to the ash heap.
He forecast that people must ex-
pect to pay a third more for houses
than they did three years ago. Mr.
Nelson said building costs have gone
up 80 per cent in the last three
years.
Mr.. Nelson said the country has
to choose between a building boom
at prices rejecting increased costs
or practically no building.
There's nothing Mr.. Bowles nor
the Government can do about it" he
said.
Senator Wagner told reporter no
one has asked him for legislation on
real estate price ceilings. There had
been reports in real estate circles
that Senator Wagner, chairman OF
the Banking Committee, might offer
a bill to carry out Mr.. Bowles' wishes.
A Senate Small Business Subcom-
mittee which was to have looked into
Mr. sBowles' proposal Monday post
poned its meeting, repeatedly as a
result of request from Mr.. Snyder,
who indicated he was speaking in
the Presidents behalf.
Mr.. Snyder was reported to have
urged Chairman Stewart of the sub
committee to hold off until Mr.. Sny-
der and Mr.. Bowles can adjust their
differences. The word was that in
the adjustment of these differences,
the weight of the President would
be with Mr.. Snyder's no-ceiling
stand.

CRUISER
 ALASKA
 CAN HI1
Brings Down Jap Suicide Plane Diving on Large
 American Carrier

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5-In her first encounter with enemy opposi- ton the 30,O00-ton battle cruiser Alaska shot out of the air Japa- nese suicide plane diving on large American carrier
 Although the Alaska --- first of three ships of her class to join the fleet = participated in the carrier strikes against Tokyo last February it was not until a month later that she met enemy opposition.
 She was one of several heavy
 units protecting carriers during strikes by Task Force 58 prelim- mary to the Okinawa invasion.
 Shortly after 8 a. m., the morning of March l8, the Navy reported to- day, lookouts sighted a twin-engined enemy bomber approaching from the stern. The Alaska's gun crews opened up with all the guns that could bear on the attacker, which was in dive on one of the larger carriers. Hits were scored almost immediately but the flaming bomber kept on course.
 Finally the Alaska's gunners hit the planes gas tanks when it was less than a half mile from it's tar get. It exploded, huge ball of fire splashing harmlessly into the sea.
 The Alaska, the U S. Navy's yer sion of the German pocket battle ship, was built by the New York Shipbuilding Co.,, Camden, N J., and commissioned June IT, 1944. Other ships of the class are the Guam. also with the fleet, and the Hawaii, now nearing completion.
 The ships are armed with nine 12-inch main battery guns. Second ary and machinegun batteries com pare with the largest battleships Their length of over 300 feet is ex- ceeded only by the 45,000-ton Iowa class battleships and the Essex class carriers.

If you were to talk with friend whose
hobby is woodworking, and ask him
what he builds, he might tell you OF
toys, furniture, household items - use
full, attractive, entertaining things in
which he takes pride and satisfaction.
But if you were to dig little deeper,
he might say: 1.-The most important
product of the woodworking hobby is
happiness-that glorious feeling of re-
Taxation and well-being that comes
when you begin to use the natural skill
of your hands and forget your nerve
janeling worries in the fun of shaping
I piece of smooth, fragrant wood. There
is happiness too, in sharing the activity

You'd better if you
Want to keep friends

IF YOU make an engagement, you
must keep it. There are very
. few occasions when anyone has to
make one unwillingly. Therefore,
when you do accept an invitation,
particularly one to a meal or any
where your place would have to be
filled, you must 60 at the time you
are expected, stay as long as you
are expected to stay and make
yourself as agreeable as you are
expected to be.
We know that broken business
engagements exact price either
in lost business or lost advantage.
One who is casual about his
social engagements pays in loss
of further invitations and loss
of friendships.
The unforgivable offender is one
who, having accepted an invita-
ton, sends word that he is too i'll
to come. Later the hostess hears
that he went to another dinner
where the attraction may have
been greater. Also, breaking a din
ner engagement at the last minute
is particularly disappointing to
hostess who has been saving her
food ration points for the occasion.
Verbal Answer
SEVERAL letters ask how to an
swer verbal invitation such as:
will you come to dinner two
weeks from next Friday?" If it is
asked of man who carries an
appointment book around with
him, he can answer easily enough.
But the usual answer is, "I'll call
you as soon as l get home"
If he had accepted at guess,
it would have been necessary for
the hostess to send a message
written on her visiting card: ITO
remind you, Friday, September

have telephoned.
Only thoughtless or inconsid-
crate person offers "trap-setting"
invitation. To the question: What
are you doing tomorrow night"
an answer of Nothing" shuts the
door of escape! An invitation
should include a concrete sugges-
ton. Otherwise one may be forced
to give excuses rather than take
any chances.
Modern Fxanlxness
ON THE other hand. it would not
be out of key with modern frank
ness to reply as follows to the
question, What are you doing
tomorrow night?"
Mary: I'm not sure yet. What
are you suggesting?'
Jane: Jim is coming to dinner.
l thought you'd like to see him."
Mary: Indeed l would"
However, if Jane says to Mary,
I'm having the Very Dulls,"
Mary's answer may be cheerful.
"All right, III do my best" or
frankly, Please, not just now.
I'm overtired and l wouldn't be a
bit of help to you"
The rules are explicit: First,
don't break an engagement. Sec
ond, don't be late. And don't ac-
cept an invitation if you aren't
willing to keep your end up!
Changing a date in order to ac-
cept another invitation is. as a
general rule, inconsiderate. How
ever, there are occasions with init
mate friends or your family - if
something unusual turns up that
you want very much to do -
when it is all right to say frankly:

Measure 10 LiberaIize
Veterans Loan Terms
Passed by Senate

A revised. CT Bill OF Rights
making 1t easier for veterans tc
get educations and loans was a
step nearer passage today after
approval by the Senate on a
voice vote.
The House approved amendments
to the CT bill months ago, but the
measure the Senate approved late
yesterday is lamost totally different
retaining little more than the title
of the House measure.
Senator johnson, Democrat, OF
Colorado, floor manager of the bill
estimated the changes would make
the CT program cost $4,000, 900 ,000
over the years of its operation. The
cost Of the original CT bill, he said
was estimated at $7,635. 100000.
Major Changes in Bill.
Here are the principal changes
the legislation would make in the
existing law:
Give any veteran of World War II
regardless of age, the right to 60 to
school with the Government footing
the bills up to $500 year. Previ-
ously, only men who were under Is
or who could prove their education
was interrupted by service, were
entitled to more than one years
education under the CT bill.
Increase from $50 to $65 the
monthly living allowance for stu.
dent-veterans without dependent.
and from $75 to $50 the allowance
for those with dependents.
Include in the program short
technical training courses and cor.
respondence courses if the cost doe.
not exceed $500 a year.
Authorize the veterans admins.
traitor to make agreements with
State institutions for payments ir
lieu of tuition since some State
schools charge little or no tuition
for their own residents.
Loan Features Liberalized.
Permit Government guarantee ur
to one-half, or not more than $4,000
Of loans to veterans to buy homes
businesses or farms, provided the
property was purchased at a "rea.
Sonable value" The existing Law
reads reasonable normal value. ;

Committee was reluctant to strike
