Farley on Palestine
ReconvenesMonday
By the A.sociofed Press


LONDON, Jan. 25.-British CO.
lonial experts and Arab representa-
tives will have another try at un-
tangling the Holy Land problem
Monday when the London Palestine
Conference reconvenes without jew
ish representatives present. Zion
ist spokesmens will confer separately
with British representatives, how
ever.
The conference recessed on a
note of discord last October after
the Arab delegates turned down
Britain's plan for dividing the Holy
Land into four federated, semi
autonomous provinces.
The Palestine Arab delegation
headed by Jamal Effendi Husseini
cousin of the exiled Mufti of Jerusa-
lem, will be newcomers to the con-
ference. The Palestine Arabs boy
cotted the parley last fall after the
British rejected the Mufti as dele
gate.
In Jerusalem, reliable source
said Gen. Sir Evelyn Barker had
confirmed the military death SEN
tence against Dow Groner, alleged
member of the underground Irgun
Zvai Leumi, for his participation in
an attack on a police station last
spring.
This informant said Gen. Barker,
British commander in chief In
Palestine. had ordered Groner to
hang Tuesday, but because no OFF,
cial communique had yet been re-
leased. there was some speculation
that Gen. Sir Alan Cunningham
high commissioner for Palestine,
might reprieve Groner.

George Calls for Cut
OF = Billions in
Presidents Budget
BY the Assoeiofed Press

Senator George, Democrat, of
Georgia, former chairman of the
Senate Finance Committee, to-
day added his voice to that of
many Republican members of
Congress calling for a cut in
President Truman's $37 500 ,000,-
600 budget.
II am sure the budget can be
leveled off at s35, 900, 900 900 and I
hope it can be cut below that point" ;"
he told reporter.
Senator George, who frequently
reflects the views of many of his
Democratic colleagues on financial
matters, is one of the first influential
Democrat Senators to speak out for
less spending than recommended by
the President for the 1s48 fiscal year.
He also advocated delay in any
tax reduction until income exceeds
Government expenses by $4,000, ,00o.-
600.
Debt Payment Urged.
eve ought to arrange to pay not
less than $1,000, ,OOO, 900 on the ma
tional debt and to leave breathing
space of another $1,000, 900 900 for
possible shrinkage of revenues" he
said.
In effect, he said, this would
limit tax reductions generally to
whatever Congress might save by
cutting the budget below $35, ,000,-
600, 900.
Many Republicans have urged
even deeper cuts in the Presidents
budget. Some have asked a 20 per
cent reduction in income tax rates.
Senator Murray, Democrat, OF
Montana yesterday introduced leg
islation which would allow an in
come tax credit of $1,000 for single
persons and $4,000 for heads Of
families.
eff it is the intent of Congress
to reduce individual income taxes, p"
he said. II believe we should be-
gin at the bottom of the economic
pile
Exemptions Cited.
Present exemptions are $500 for a
single person and $1,000 for a man
and wife.
Meanwhile, Chairman Bridges of
the Senate Appropriations Commit
tee said the Senate-House Budget
Committee is having tough time
trying to estimate income and outgo
and balance them, as required by
the congressional organization. He
told reporters the group may bring
in an overall figure and avoid speci-
flying which, of the Presidents esti-
mates should be cut.

Canadians Postpone
Expression Of Views
On German Treaty
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Jan. 25.-The four
power Foreign Ministers depu-
ties, scheduled to hear Canada's S
views on the German peace
treaty today, postponed the
meeting after the Canadians
said they were not ready to talk.
A semioficial Canadian source
said Canada never would be ready
to talk until she we're assured that
presentation of her views now
would not jeapardize her rights to
participate in subsequent delibera-
tions on the German peace.
United States sources said Can
ada, seeking a stronger voice In
the treaty making, had indicated
informally" that she would boy
colt deliberations on the German
pact unless assured that she could
take part in later discussions.
Split on Small Nations.
Yesterday the deputies, in re-
sponse to a written request from
the Canadian delegation as to
whether participation today would
jeopardize Canada's future partici-
patton, said only that they would
be glad to hear her views.
Meantime, disagreement still was
apparent between the Soviet Union
on the one hand and the United
States, Britain and France on the
other on the extent to which other
small nations should be allowed to
take part in drafting treaties for
the March Big -Four meeting in
Moscow.
Feodor r. Gousev of Russia criti-
cized South Africa and Australia for
bringing up questions of peacemak-
ing procedure. He recalled that in
the role of chairman this week he
had instructed them to confine their
discussions to the German problem
itself.
South Africa Asks Revision.
Robert Murphy of the United
States and Sir William Strang of
Britain made it clear they could not
agree to instructions of this sort. Mr..
Gousev's criticism Of the Union of
South Africa followed statement
to the Big Four deputies from E. K.
Scallan, acting high commissioner
for the Union in London, who de-
clared the Potsdam agreement on
Germany should be revised promptly
to give nations outside the Big
Three part in German administra-
tion and to improve the German
economy, which he said held a
threat to peace.
He opposed cession to Poland of
German territory east of the Oder
and Neisse Rivers and to France
of the Saarland and asked recon-
sideration Of the current rate of
German coal exports, reparation de-
liveries and industrial dismantling.
There is grave danger of fur
ther economic and social setback
which may make Germany new
menace to Europe and the world"
he said
Mr.. Scallan's demand for a re-
vision OF the Potsdam accord fol-
lowed similar representations by
Australia the day before.
