their chairman, and predicted that
Mr.. Allen is slated for that post.
Senator Barkley told the Senate
however, that Charles B. Henderson,
the present chairman, has just been
elected for two years. Senator Taft
contended the law fixes no stated
term, and that that would be no
bar to change.
Senator Mcmahon Joined in to
say the Senate need not be per-
turbed over the leadership Of RFC
under Mr.. Henderson, and added
that If Mr. Allen should later be
elected chairman its affairs would
still be in honest and courageous
hands.
To Retain Directorships.
Mr.. Allen told the Senate Banking
Committee he plans to give up his
regular job as a vice president OF
the Home Insurance Co. of New
York, at $685. a year, but hopes to
retain his place on the board OF
directors of about dozen other
companies, as other members OF
RFC have done in the past, by list
ing these companies and taking nc
part in any government decisions
affecting these concerns.
Mr.. Allen testified that, in addition
to the $28, 900 insurance job, his fees
as director of other companies have
brought his annual income up tt
$780, a year. The loss of his in.
surance salary will be partly offse'
by the $4,000 he will get as an RFC
director.
Senators Barkley and McMahor
supported Mr.. Aliens contention thai

Allen Confirmed,
Takes Oath Soon as
Director Of RFC

Former District Commissioner
George E. Allen will be sworn in as
a director of the Reconstruction
Finance Corp. within a few days,
having been confirmed by the Sem
ate late yesterday without record
vote after an effort to send his name
back to the Banking Committee
failed, 43 to 27.
Led by Senator Taft of Ohio, Re-
publicans fought the nomination on
the general ground that he lacks
business experience to be director
of RFC, a $4,000 ,000, 900 lending
agency.
Democrats, headed by Majority
Leader Barkley of Kentucky, rallied
to the nominees defense, asserting
that his background, both in the
business world and as District
Commissioner, qualities him for the
new post. For the last year Mr..
Allen has been an unofficial adviser
to President Truman, and said to-
day 1t would take him several days
to wind up other pending matters.
LANCER Supports Taft.
Among those who joined Senator
Taft in opposition were Senators
LANCER, Republican, of North Dakota
and Senator Hickenlooper, Repub-
lican, of Iowa.
Others who spoke in support of
Evening star., 1946-02-19

the nomination were Senator's Lucas
of Illinois. McMahon of Connecticut
and Bilbo of Mississippi.
Senator Taft brosdened his oppo-
sition to include two other recent
Truman appointees who are still
under attack In committees--Edwin
w. Pauley, to be Undersecretary of
the Navy. and Commodore James K
Vardaman. jr., to be a governor Of
the Federal Reserve Board for IA
years at $4,000 a year.
"The character of these appoint
nNsnts has excited the indignation
of the people of the country" said
Senator Taft. Without considering
the individual cases for the moment
they have certain characteristics in
common. None of the men knows
anything about the job to which he
| is appointed.
"Mr. Pauley knows nothing about
the Navy. His semi diplomatic trips
to Russia and the Far East appar-
emily showed that he knew nothing
about diplomacy or our relations
with other countries.
Said to Lack Experience.
"Mr Allen knows nothing of bank
ing, which is the main function OF
the chairman of the board of RFC
Commodore Vardaman knows MOTH
ing about currency or the control Of
imitation, though he did have some
background over 10 years ago fol
the banking functions of the Federal
Reserve Board by serving in minor
bank jobs"
Senator Taft made a point of the
fact that the RFC directors elect

relinquishing their directorships In
private business. Senator Barkley
said there Is no bar In the RFC law
to a member following this course,
as long as he takes no part in de-
cisions affecting companies with
which he is connected.
Senator Taft insisted that, with
the RFC playing part in the dis
posal of surplus war plants and ma
chinery, it may be difficult to de-
termine when RFC decisions affect
particular companies, indirectly if
not directly.

French troops now are in command

said. Viet-Namese were said to
have made attacks Saturday night

The court pointed out today that
the section defines capital assets
as property other than stock in
trade. ETC., held by the taxpayer
for more than two years, and ex-
cludes gain or loss from sale or
exchange of these assets in flgur-
ing net income for tax purposes.
In answer to the CARROTS argu-
ment that the two-year period is
unreasonable and invalid, the court
said that the apparent purpose of
Congress was to distinguish. for

clared that setting of the two-year

Gen. Clay Is Annoyed
When French Set Up

BY the Associated Press

BERLIN, Dec. 23.-Lt. Gen. Lu-
cius D. Clay, deputy American mill
tary governor, expressed annoyance
today at what he called the entirely
unilateral action" OF the French in
separating the Saar from the rest
of Germany,withl a customs frontier
1t. Gen. Joseph Pierre Koenig,
French military governor, placed l.
200 customs officials on the bound
aries OF the rich coal region with
Baden and the Rhine-Palatinate
yesterday to prevent the exporting
of food products from the Saar and
an influx Of currency into the Saar.
Gen. Clay said the matter had not
been presented to the Allied Control
Council. Other American officials
said privately the French had made
a single-handed move to gain set
tlement of French demands regard
ling the Saar, outside the four power
councils.
The French are understood to de-
sire at least a customs union with
the Saar, it's close economic integra-
|tion with France and its separation
from Germany in some fashion.
Gen. Clay said the Americans
learned about the French intention
only few hours before Gen. Koenig
posted his customs officials. Gen
Clay said he would report to

Pope Calls Christians
To Form Holy Union
Against Hostility
By the Associated Press

VATICAN CITY, Dec. 23.-
Thousands of cheering Catholics
who jammed st. Peters Square
heard Pope Plus XII call yester-
day for a holy union" of all
Christians to overcome "hostil-
ity" in the world and urge Cath
olics everywhere to defend the
faith in a fight which he de-
scribed as "for Christ or against
Christ"
The crowd applauded the white
robed pontiff fer 10 minutes as he
appeared on the gallery above the
huge piazza, and repeatedly inter-
rupted his opening remarks with
roars of "Viva!"
Armed soldiers moved through the
teeming throng as precaution
against anti-Catholic incidents, but
none developed. The gathering had
been summoned in answer to a new
wave of Italian anticlericism-an
outburst that had resulted in the
excommunication of editors, vendors
and readers of the weekly journal
Don Basilio, most virulent of the
antireligious journals.
Many Garry Posters.
Referring directly to the anti
clerical outbreaks, the pontiff told
his listeners that you see with
pain and Indignation the holy
name of the vicar of Christ attacked
by "denyers of Christ and by ruin
ers of holy things"
The Pope called for the "holy
union" OF Rome, Italy and the whole
Christian world to overcome "all
hostility"
So pronounced had the anti
Catholic sentiment become in GER
tain elements of the press recently
that Premier Alcide de Gasperi, a
devout Catholic, told the Constitu-
ent Assembly last week that his gov
ernment would not let the 're-won
freedom" of the Italian press be
used for ''obscenity and pornogra-
phy' and the "detriment of the
Pope.
However, there was no evidence
of any such spirit among the thou
sands of cheering worshipers who
thronged about Christendom's larg-
est church yesterday.
Many of the gathering carried
posters and banners. Some read
"'Holy Father, we are with you unto
death"
Other Gatherings Recalled.
Although no official estimate was
made of the size of the throng, the |
1,000-foot piazza, which has capac-
ity of 100000 persons, was nearly
filled.
Truly the Catholic soul of the
Eternal City is here" said the no;y
father as he looked down on the
cheering multitude.
The Pope recalled other great
gatherings in st. Peters.
He referred to March 70, 1914,
when he appealed to both the Axis
and the Allies to spare Rome, as a
day when so many refugees and
Italian citizens came to seek safety
and comfort in the words of their
father and bishop" !
He also recalled June 6, 1914, when
Allied troops swept past Rome as
the date Rome emerged from the
war spared"
AS the faithful gathered for the
mass celebrated on an improvised
altar atop st. Peters stair. the bells |
of 400 churches pealed throughout
the Eternal City.
The ceremony was concluded with
the apostolic benediction and an in
vocation for peace and justice for
Rome, Italy and the whole world
