up China'S claim to Outer Mon
gelia, offered Tibet high degree
of autonomy and yielded 10 Brit
ain on the occupation of Hong
Kong.
Addressing a joint session of
the national supreme defense
council and the central standing
committee, Chang said that with
out recognition of Mongolia's in-
dependence there was no hope OF
friendship between China and
Mongolia.
The Mongolian recognition was
regarded as a possible satstac-
tory settlement of the Chinese
Communist problem which would
avert any threat Of a possible
civil war.

Don't Take
Peace for Granted

Everyone knew that our
country had never lost war
but just because we had never
lost n war, did we take il for
granted we would win? More
than $50, 900 men who gave their
lives did not take il for granted;
more than 100000 men who
were wounded did not take il
for granted millions " no fought,
endured and sacrificed did not
take il for granted. Those who
produced and delivered the mu-
nitions of war did not take il for
granted.
Historians say that "no
country ever won the peace"
But we need not take that for
granted either. Vigilance, chal-
lenging vigilance, all the time,
all the way, all together, will
win the peace. Take il for
granted and peace is lost as
surely as the war would have
been lost.

Battle in Congress
Due Over Best Way
To Cut Down Taxes
Ey the Associated Press

Ey the Associated Press.
Congressional machinery went into
gear today to grind down wartime
taxes.
Reductions in Federal assessments
against individuals pocketbooks and
corporate tills were. regarded certain
as the House Ways and Means Com
mittee voted unanimously to start
work at once on its first postwar
revenue bill
Views on the size and manner of
the cuts quickly clashed. 1t ap-
peared Congress would have about as
big a battle on how to reduce taxes
in peacetime as it did over the hiking
process in wartime.
Two Camps Have Plans.
Two camps showed signs of organ
liza ton:
/. Those subscribing to proposal
by Representative Knutson of Min
nesota, Ways and Means Republican
leader, that individual burdens be
cut a fat 20 per cent all along
the board"
2. Those who contend any such
horizontal cutting plan would be
unfair to the small taxpayer. They
propose instead that the per cent
normal taX-successor to the old
victory tax - be erased This
would remove as taxpayers some TO-
900 900 persons in the smaller in
come bracket.
Ways and Means Chairman
Doughton said L hope we can give
some relief to individuals and corpo-
rations both. but l can't say in de-
tail just what We will do"
November l Deadiine.
The quick tax revision, he told
newspapermen, must be on the sta
tute books by November l to give
the Treasury time to prepare new
1916 tax forms
Mr.. Doughton indicated sympathy
with President Truman's tax posi-
ton. The Chief Executive, in his
September 6 message to Congress,
admonished that we must recon-
cile ourselves to the fact that room
for tax reductions at this time is
limited He recommended a transi-
tional tax bill "as soon as possible
to provide limited reductions next
year
Chairman George of the Senate
Finance Committee estimates that
cuts amounting to between 5000.
100000 and 5000, ,OOo, 900 can be
made in 1946.
