Downey Seeks 10 Save
PAY Raise Measure by
$4,000 Ceiling Plan
By JOSEPH YOUNG.

An amendment to the Federal
pay bill to prevent top-f1ight Gov
ernment employees from receiving
more than $4,000 year is expected
to be offered shortly by Chairman
Downey OF the Senate Civil Service
Committee.
Although personally opposed to
the amendment, Senator Downey Is
Offering 1t In an attempt to save
the pay bill, which calls for a fiat
20 per cent basic wage increase for
Government workers.
The Californian agreed to the
amendment after he was informed
by various members of the Senate
that they would not vote for any
bill that would raise the salary of
any Government official over that
OF their own. Members OF Congress
receive 10000 annually.
Recommended by Truman.
President Truman has recon-
mended that members of Congress
cabinet officials, Federal judges and
agency heads get a $4,000 annual
salary boost, but the Senate Civil
Service Committee deferred action
on the request.
During hearings on the bill
representatives of Government and
business emphasized that men ir
high Federal positions received
salaries considerably below COM
parable jobs in private industry
and efficiency would be improved
with higher wages by holding
and attracting able men. Senator
Downey favored President Truman:
suggestion, but the committe finally
deferred action and decided to hole
further hearings.
Salary "Bunching" Seen.
However, the 20 per cent propose;
wage boost, while not covering Con
gress, does affect cabinet members
heads of agencies, members o
boards and commissions and al
other Federal employees who's
salaries are fixed by acts Of Con
gress. Any Government off1cia
making s8,400 a year or more, woult
receive a salary in excess of $40
600 If the 20 per cent wage in
crease were approved
Those opposed to the amendmen
point out that it would tend t
bunch salaries of officials and thei
snhordinates at $4,000.
Senator Downey, sponsor of tn
pay bill, expects to bring the meas
ure up for debate Monday.

Dime Store Operator
ASKS Court 10 Force
Falls Church Permit

Suit has been filed In Fairfax
County Circuit Court by william F.
Robertson, operator Of 10-cent
stores In Arlington and Falls
Church, asking for a writ Of man
damus to require the Falls Church
town clerk to issue building per-
init for store on East Broad street,
opposite the post Office.
Mr.. Robertson charges the action
Of the town clerk, Mrs. Helen M.
Lester, in refusing to issue him a
permit was arbitrary, Illegal and
capricious," and that In so doing
she was completely under the
domination and control of the
Mayor and Planning Commission.
The refusal of the town Plan
ming Commission and the Board of
zoning Appeals to grant Mr.. Rob-
ertsons application for a building
permit was based primarily on the
fact that he had not obtained ade-
quate parking space, as required by
the zoning ordinance, commission
officials said
1t was pointed out that he also
had granted him a variance on these
|setback and the 15-foot front set
back provisions in his original plans,
but the Board of Zoning Appeals
had granted hi ma variance on these
requirements, provided he set aside
sufficient land for parking.
Mr.. Robertson told the court that
he had complied with the parking
requirements of the zoning ordinance.
He further alleged that the Plan
ming commission, in refusing to ap-
prove his application. has acted
wholly without any authority of law
whatsoever and that the Town Coun-
Gil is without authority to hear or
pass upon any disputed questions
that might arise in connection with
enforcement of the zoning ordi-
nance"
Mr.. Robertson also told the court
that ''he does not intend to admit
for one moment the validity of the
said so-called zoning ordinance, u
which is IAN abuse of police power
AND exceeds the power granted
Falls Church by the Virginia Cen
eral Assembly"

WHAT IT MEANS
POSTWAR
INCOMES
BY HERMAN r. ALLEN

WASHINGTON - The air is
thick with proposals for post
war corporation and individual
tax structures. Almost without
exception they call for tax re-
auctions, but there is consider
able debate whether any very
extensive tax reduction will be
possible for many years.
Leading Proposals
These are the leading propos
ais:
l. The Committee for Eco
nomic Development plan. The
CED IS group of business men.
They suggest that personal in
come tax levies be reduced to a
single standard tax Of 16 to 20
per cent, instead of % per cent
now collected on the lowest
bracket of taxable income, and
eliminating the three per cent
normal tax. Surtaxes would
start at three per cent on the
second $4,000. Elimination of the
normal tax would remove some
100000 persons from the tax
rolls.
4.
The CED would tax corpora
tons at 16 to 20 per cent also,
doing away with the present
combined normal and surtax of
40 per cent and excess profits
tax of up to 95 per cent. It
would also repeal all excise tax
es except those on liquor, tobac-

DEPENDENT Without the sales
tax exemptions would be $500

dependent.
Taxes would be levied at these
rates: With sales tax, normal
tax 10 per cent, surtaxes start
ing at six per cent on second
$4,000; without sales tax, same
normal tax, surtaxes starting at
six per cent on first $4,000.

2. The National Planning As
ISOLATION proposal. The NPA is
composed of representatives of
business, labor and government
officials. This plan, work of
Beardsley Ruml, sponsor of the
Pay-As-You-Go tax and H.
Christian Some, banker, is
quite similar to the CED plan.
It emissions a five per cent
franchise tax for corporations,
plus Is per cent tax on undis-
tributed profits. It would start
Individual income taxes at Is
per cent and collect "a surtax
starting at one per cent on the
third $1,000 of taxable income.
8. The "Twin Cities" plan.
Backers of the proposal, a group
of Minnesota business men, say
relatively heavy corporate
income tax rates are not as
harmful to the private enterprise
system as are heavy Individual
income tax rates." Therefore
they would keep the corporation
tax rate at 40 per cent for bust
nesses making more than $50
900 year, but would eliminate
the excess profits tax. Smaller
businesses would pay smaller
tax rates.
Sales Tax Options
The Twin Cities plan offers
two suggested programs for in
dividual income taxes, one in
volving a five per cent sales
tax, the other without sales tax.
With the sales tax, it would set
exemptions as follows: $500 for
a single person, $1,400 for a
married person, $500 for each
