He runs his diplomatic team like q

The result, at the end Of two. in
tensive weeks at this Foreign Min.

better shape, physically and psy-
chologically, than almost anybody
In Moscow.
Gen. Marshall has breakfast In
his rooms, usually about o'clock
During the morning he talksone

principal advisers In the delegation
He will not see more than fou1
people, and he will not see anyone
Of them for more than an hour. He
believes it is impossible to absorb
more than an hours worth Of infor-
nation at a sitting.
In these conferences, he ask.
questions, listens to answers, assign,
duties and gives orders. He does no,
discuss things, In the ordinary sense
Of the word.
During the morning, also, the
general studies papers bearing or
conference affairs. Then he has
lunch, also in his rooms. Ambas-

are "of alien origin" In many
instances, they came here to work
against the interests Of this country
and democracy, he said.

the extremely dangerous" situation
of having Communist labor leaders.
5. Ban issuance Of passports to

6. Limit the establishment and

Of the Soviet Embassy here, to the
number and size of American diplo-
amtic or consular places allowed In
Russia.

key spots they may hold for pur-
poses Of possible sabotage or stirring
up economic and racial discord.

IF Russia had the atomic bomb, +"
Mr.. Bullitt told the committee, "she
would already have dropped It on
the United States" - ~
Describing the strength and aims
of Communists in France and other
countries not yet dominated by
Soviet Russia, Mr., Bullitt asserted
the Communist Party in the United
States "is the agency for the Soviet
government to weaken the United
States for the ultimate assault that
the Soviet government intends to
make on us. ."7s
He predicted that IN any conflict
with Russia, American Communists

The full force Of top Soviet re-

at the end Of that time in SUFFICIENT

row from the international Bank
to- continue her work of recon-
struction.
The Undersecretary emphasized
that aid required by Greece in her
present emergency can come only
from the United States.
1.-THE political and military rea-
sons for Strengthening the Greek
Army" he continued, "have been
discussed by others, but should
like to emphasize that establishment
OF military security is an essential
prerequisite to economic stability u
Refers to Repayment.
He told the committee he believed
assistance for military purposes in
Greece and Turkey, being essential
to our own security, and not in itself
creating the wherewithal to repay,
Should be made as clear grant"
On the other hand, financial assist
ance for civilian purposes, he said,
fall into a different category and
repayment should be sought. He
added, however, that he did not be-
lieve I'VE should create financial OBJ
legations for which there Is no rea-
sonable prospect Of repayment"
Meanwhile, amid signs of a
progressively toughened official at
titude toward Russia, Senator Taft,
Republican, of Ohio reported he may
support the program to aid the
two countries.
Senator Taft said in an interview
that If he supports Mr.. Truman's
program, he wants to be certain the
State, War and Navy Departments
don't work at cross purposes" In
handing out supplies and technical
advice to the two countries.

Minority Report Hits
Income Tax Slash Bill
AspoIificaI Patchwork
BY the As.oeiotsd Press

Nine Democratic members OF
the House Ways and Means
Committee today assailed the
Republican-backed income taz
slashing bill as "a discrimina-
tory patchwork of political ex-
pediency."
Dissenting from the committees
action last week in approving the
measure, the nine declared in re-
port that the legislation is neither
equitable, timely nor sound"
The bill would cut taxes by to-
tai of $3,840, ,000, 900. Individual cuts
would range from 30 per cent fol
small taxpayers to 20 per cent for
most others.
Debate Begins Tomorrow.
Republican committeeman stimuli
taneously issued a majority report
saying present high taxes endangeI
business prosperity. The majority
contended the tax slash can be
made and between s., 300, ,000, 900 and
s., 300, ,000, 900 paid on the $3.50 600, :
o000 national debt.
The House Rules Committee today
cleared the bill for floor considera-
ton under a procedure whereby the
House would vote for the proposed
cut or no tax reduction at all. This
is the usual rule for consideration
Of complex tax bills and Democrats
made no objection to it.
Debate on the bill begins in the
House tomorrow, with final vote
set for Thursday. Republicans are
confidently predicting victory for
the legislation.
However, leading Democratic
members of Congress believe Presi-
dent Truman will veto the bill if it
reaches the White House in its
present form.
The Democratic minority on the
Ways and Means group protested
that the legislation is a wind fall
to the wealthiest taxpayers"
Obligation to Bondholders.
Only an outraged public" they
said, caused the Republicans to re-
wise original plans and grant small
taxpayers more than a fiat 20 per
cent reduction. The original bill
by Ways and Means Chairman
Knutson, proposed straight 20 pei
cent cut for all taxpayers.
The Republican majority countered
that "the stultifying effect OF the
existing individual income tax rates
makes tax reduction imperative.
One Democratic member of the
Ways and Means group-Repre-
sentative West of Texas-did not
sign the minority report. He voted
with the Is Republicans when the
committee approved the bill.
One Democratic lawmaker told
reporters privately he is sure Mr..
Truman never will accept the bill.
A two-thirds vote of both House and
Senate Is required to override a veto.
