70 Pei. Tax Reduction
In 1947 Urged by COP
House Committee
Group Hits New Deal
Program Of Spending,
Wasting Public Funds
BY the Associoied Press

The House Republican Tax
Study Committee today declared
there is IAN imperative need for
a complete overhauling of our
Federal tax system" 1t suggest
ed 20 per cent reduction in
Federal taxes for 1947.
Chairman Reed of the 27-mem-
Der committee issued statement
saying there is no reason why taxes
should not be reduced handsomely
i'll l947." He said "one reason is
the continued New Deal program of
spending and wasting public funds"
Canadian Reduction Cited.
The statement said Canada is
preparing to reduce taxes % per cent
in l947, and asked why shouldn't
the Government of the. United
States do as much for its taxpayers
next year as the Canadian govern
ment does for its taxpayers"
The Republicans said:
we believe the sooner our Gov
ernment again restricts itself to its
proper functions, and restores those
extra Federal activities to the States
and to the people, where they be-
long, the sooner We will have sanity,
economy and efficiency in our Gov
ernment.
See Continuance of Spending.
The American people, the admin
istration spokesmen say, must be
forced, regardless of wasteful bu-
reaucratic expenditures, to provide
a balanced budget next year and
prevent imitation.
apparently the administration
is insensible of the effect of these
oppressive taxes taking an excessive
percentage of our peoples income
or the effect on curtailing expan-
sion on private business and en-
ployment. The administration ap-
parently means to continue its
Wasteful and reckless spending of
the peoples money, regardless to
the cost to the country"
The Republican statement said
"our present administration is now
talking in terms of no tax reduc-
ton for 1947," but the statement
insisted that if economy were prac-
ticed there could be a substantial
tax reduction next year.

Some Experts Refuse
To Accept Soviet No
On Atom as Final
Americans View Stund
As Laying Groundwork
For Horse Trading
By NewboId Moves Jr
Stor S,off Corresponden,

NEW YORK, July 25.-Faced
with apparent Soviet rejection
of its latest compromise proposal
for international control of
atomic energy, the American
delegation to the United Nations
Atomic Energy Commission to-
day went back to the drawing
board-not to work out a new
plan or compromise so much as
to devise new arguments with
which to convince the skeptical
Russians that all nations must
surrender a portion of their SOW
ereignty if the world is to live
IN peace with, or even to live
with, the bomb.
The tendency in American and
other non-RuSsian circles here is
to take or at least to express the
view that there was nothing neces-
sarily final about Soviet Delegate

Church Dispute
 Taken ToCourt

One of the most confusing church disputes in Hartgord's ris- tory was taken into the Court of Common Pleas on Monday, June 3, 1946.
 The dispute is between the min ister, Rev. Daniel D. Davis, and the trustees, Eddie Hall, Ozella DowdeH, Quitman Butler, Irving W. Harper, Daniel G. Lauray and Adelle M. Thomas. The nature of the dispute is primarily based on alleged mismanagement of funds
 Judge Thomas J. Molloy of the Court of Common Pleas has issued temporary injunction restraining Eddie Hill, Ozella Dowdell, Quit man Butler, Irving W. Harper, Daniel G. Lauray and Adele M. Thomas from interfering with the conduct of religious services at the Bethel A. M. E. Church, 21O Bellevue St., Hartford, pending a hearing in September on petition for permanent injunction.
 The temporary injunction was granted on application of Atty. Franz Carlson, acting in behalf of Daniel D. David, Robert Wells, Mary W. Smith, Rufus Jones, Sr., Joseph Frederick, Carrie c. Smith, William c. Cooper, Lois P. Cuyler, Marjorie Townsend and Mildred Lewis of East Windsor and Alma Hickson of Hartford; E. Helen Harris and Victoria Freeman, of Wethersfeld.
 The plaintiff, Daniel D. Davis, pastor, according to the petition, and the plaintiffs Cooper, Smith land Lewis are trustees. All the defendants are trustees having been elected at the last annual meeting.
 The complaint alleges that on May 24, the defendants purport- ing to act as the Board of Trus- tees, unlawfully closed the house of worship at 210 Bellevue St., by placing padlocks.o the doors. As a result of this action the plain tiffs and other members of the church were prevented from using the structure for religious servi- ces, and the pastor was prevented from preaching therein. It is al- so held by the plaintiffs that oth- CT church activities could not be held because of the padlocks. The defendants were requested to re- move the padlocks but have re- fused, the plaintiffs claim. Papers in the case were served by Depu- l ty Sheriff Joseph Fanelli.
 At the present development in the case the CHRONICLE is un- able to express an opinion other than the fact that the proper legal proceedings are being made in or der to clarify the situation to the best interest of all concerned. The CHRONICLE, however, is hopeful that the dispute and all the allegations that are being ar gued, will result in better under standing for all our citizens who
 so readily conclude and criticise before all facts are known.-Ed.

THE THOUGHT OF THE WEEK By Harriet Matthews
 Editor, Woman's Page

All life is a canvass; each of us a painter and whatever we make of ourselves is portrayed there in detail.
 The things that we have done and said and even the thoughts we've had will be depicted on the picture of our lives.
 It is a picture that we have to paint and we have to paint it without acclaim. Our only reward being what old age reveals to us.
 If our promises are broken and we have cheated in life's test, then we can expect to see it on our picture when it is too late to make amends. When we auction off our friendships for quick and fleeing gold, then our picture will come back to us, not with the gold, but with the shame of our deceit.
 But if we have lived in honor and shown humanity to man, then the picture that comes back will be what we want to see. And even though it is not a spectacular one and have failed to win the worlds acclaim, the joy of a life we'll spent and a life well-meant will be the hearts great reward.

Down The Line
OUR BEST BET
 POLITICAL UNITY By George A. David

The most powerful concealed weapon that Americans have been granted by their Constitution is the VOTE. This weapon is even more powerful than the Atomic Creations recently invented and developed by man.
 The vote is considered a "con- cealed weapon" because, legally no one can observe or determine just how it is used. Nevertheless man is able to guess or NCharac- terize" a vote according to the l individual.
 Even though the power of the Vote has no limitations, it's inn portance becomes less significant when voting is done loosely, half heartedly or without thought of who or what the candidate or can didates represent.
 The vote, among Negroes, pri- marily, has not take advantage of it's "sting" nor it's power. Today, Negroes must depend on their vot- ing power to strengthen their de mands for more representation on political jobs, political appoint ments, and eommissionerships.
 They must vote in 'eblock" form, to elect their Negro candidates or to elect white candidates who will. champion the rights of Negroes in order to secure for them great CT volume of overall representa- tion."
 Political Unity is the best bet for Negroes just as Whirlaway was the best bet for his betting admireres when he was in his prime. The aforementioned com parison is not to be misunderstood as that of individual comparison" but as Comparison based on principle" Oftentimes we Amer jeans misinterpret gambling. Gambling is found in two forms of American living; first, gamb- ling for the right to decent living and second, gambling by hazardly wagering for stakes for some form of money, only. '

Problem Corner
By Arthur Johnson

Dear Art: I woul. like to know ples of community credit unions. if there are any practical exam Signed-John.
 Answer: Yes, the nearby com munity of Windsor Locks, Conn.,, furnishes an example of the won derful possibilities of people pool ing their resources for a common good. They have developed CO., opedative stores and are doing an excellent business in the interest of the common welfare. I shall have in a future column the de- tails of these projects. iFather Dunn, the promoter of these pro- jects, has been meeting with a group at St. Benedict's discussing the principles of such an organ ization. I personally think that a Credit Union could well be started among such natural group as a housing jroject.
