Reich Farley Report
Is Expected Today
BY fheAssoeiotsd Press

LONDON. Aus. $27,--A communi-
que giving the broad results Of
British ench-American talks on
lifting the ceiling for industry In
Western Germany was expected
late today as the three-power par
ley neared an end.
An official spokesman said most
of the difficulties facing the con-
ferees had been ironed out at yes
terday's session and today's meet
ing probably would be the last.
He gave no hint of the direction
the talks had been taking, but in
formed sources guardedly predicted
that Britain and the United States
would yield to French demands that
the German steel output be held
below 11,500,000 tons annually.
The United States and Britain
have been represented as wanting
to build sup German industry to
help European economic recovery,
but France is openly fearful that to
do this might lead to the danger of
future German aggression.
The conference began here last
Friday over the objections of the
Soviet Union, which held that the
parley violated the Potsdam agree
ment of August, 1915.

By Greek Government
By the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The Co.
operative for American Remittances
to Europe (CARE) said last night
the Greek government had released
6,802 CARE packages which had
been held since March and, there
fore, the relief organization would
continue negotiations for an ex-
tended contract with the Greek
government.
Earlier CARE said it would halt
relief shipments to Greece tomor-
row unless the Greek government
released the impounded packages.
Paul Comfy French, CARE execu-
tive director, said the organization's
chief of missions in Athens had in
formed him by cable that the Greek
government had released the pack
ages.
Mr.. French said the packages were
held up because of a legal techni-
cality, with the Greek government
claiming CARES contract with the
government never had been ratified
because it had not been published
in the. official Greek Gazette.
Earlier the Greek Office of In
formation said the Greek govern
ment had received protests from
Greek importers and was consider
ing taxing the relief shipments as
regular imports.

Nv the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, Aug. PA Balti.
more merchant yesterday questioned
the constitutiorality IF the use tar
section Of the Maryland retail sales
tax.
Samuel Shapiro, member of a firm
bearing his name, wrote Controller
James J. Lacy that the use tax vio-
lates two provisions of the Fedora
Constitution.
The controller was reported out OF
town. His Office said Mr.. Shapiro's
letter was being held for his return
Mr.. Shapiro wrote that Il cannot
see how a Maryland use tax or 9
tax by any other name can be q
legal tax under the Federal Consti-
tuition where articles are brought
into Maryland from points beyond
the States borders"
Outside Purchases Taxed.
The State law requires that ppr-
chasers declare and pay taxes or
articles bought outside Maryland.
Mr.. Shapiro contends this violates
section 9, paragraph S of Article !
and section 10. paragraph Of the
same article in the Constitution.
The first paragraph declares: INC
tax or duty shall be laid on articles
exported from any State"
The other states: mo State shall
without the consent of Congress. lay
any impost or duties on imports Oh
exports, except what may be neces-
sary for executing its inspection
laws. ="
Latest figures from the State
controllers Office show that 44,43C
sales tax licenses have been issued
More than half of these-22,571-
were issued in Baltimore and 443 to
District of Columbia merchants. It
was estimated when the law was
enacted that $4,000 licenses would
be issued and about 100 applications
a day still are being received.
Among other counties and the
number of licenses issued are Anne
Arundel, 1884; Prince Georges
1884; Frederick, 1850; Montgomery

TO Void Employee Election
BY the Associated Press


BALTIMORE, Aug. 27.-The Ma
tional Labor Relations Board con-
sidered today a request of the Glenn
L. Martin Airplane Co. to void a
collective bargaining election on
charges it was not a free and fair
expression of the employees desires.
The CIO United Auto Workers
led in the election last Thursday,
with 2,729 out of 6,242 votes cast,
but failed to obtain a majority. The
International Association of Ma
chinists received 1916 and 965 votes
were cast for no union offiliation.
Ross Madden, regional NLRB
director, said no decision has been
made on procedure to be filed in de-
termining the election. The JAW
could obtain a majority by being
awarded 1886 of GIT challenged bal
lots.
The Martin request for voiding
the election charged "the contend
ing unions flagrantly interfered
with, coerced, threatened and in
Inundated company employees during
and preceding" the voting.

French Are Reported
Willing TO Accept
Jews From ; Ships
BY tho Assoeiatsd Press

PARIS, Aug. 27.-Parliamentary
circles said the French government
drew up a favorable reply today to
British request for permission to
move 4 400 Jewish refugees to France
by train after they reach Hamburg
next week.
The Jews originally sailed from
France aboard the Exodus 1s47
without immigration certificates for
Palestine. Intercepted by the Brit
ish Navy, they were returned to
France, where they refused to dis
embark. The British subsequently
ordered the ships on to Hamburg, IN
the British zone of Germany. -"
Pierre Bourdan, minister of sports
and youth, said the government had
drawn up a reply to the British re-
quest, but gave no indication OF It's
contents.
A favorable French reply would
mean the Jews, mostly from Poland,
would be able to settle permanently
in France or await their turn to 60
to Palestine, provided the Jews
wanted to come to France after
leaving the three British troop
ships at the German port.

0'Mahoney Censures
Steel Firms in Failure
To Expand Production

Senator OMahoney, Democrat.
Of wyoming. said today that some
steel industry leaders are showing
the same belief in the eventual
breakdown Of capitalism as Prime
Minister Stain of Russia.
Instead of increasing prices, the
Senator said, this country'S BUSH
ness leaders should be expanding
production and tapping an Amer
lean market that has not yet been
scratched"
Senator OMahoney is a member
OF the" Joint Congressiona, Com
mittee on the Economic Report.
which already has conducted hear
ings into the state of this country's
business health and which plans a
Nation wide inquiry this fall into
rising prices.
Taking note Of reports that Rus
sian leaders are counting on a de-
preston to give Communism a
stronger foothold In the United
States and other capitalistic coun-
tries, the wyoming Senator de-
clared:
steel executives who are unwil-
ling to expand steel capacity to
meet perfectly obvious demands
seem to entertain the same doubts
about the capacity of the capatilist
system that are expressed by Mr.
Stain"
Cites Two Influential Factors.
Senator OMahoney said the
Consuming power in America is
beyond the imagination of those
business executives who are retard-
ing production by holding up
prices"
But, he added, these two facts
should influence business leaders
Ito take chances on the growth Of
America:
l. A report by the New York
Stock Exchange magazine that net
profits for the first half Of this year
for 400 companies are e7.7 per cent
larger than the first six months Of
1916.
2. A Commerce Department study
showing that per capita income in
1946 reached an unprecedented
peak of $1,000"
Senator OMahoney concluded
that IF businessmen have faith in
America and in their own capacity
to produce and would invest some
of their huge profits in expanding
capacity to meet the market, we
need have no further worries about
imitation
Other Predictions Gloomy.
Two other Democratic Senators
expressed views somewhat similar
to those OF Senator OrMahoney, but
their predictions in separate inter-
views were on the gloomy side.
Senator Downey, of California,
said he is discouraged by the con-
slant race between prices and wages
with the price spiral always stay
ing ahead"
This means that the great mass
of American consumers simply can
not continue to pay these high
prices" he said.
Urges United Fight on Imitation.
- Senator Hatch of New Mexico said
that "as practical man know
that when we have a condition of
unrestrained and uncontrolled ex-
cessiveiy high prices, the crash
comes sooner or later
Senator Hatch said he believes the
only possible remedy is for business
and labor and the public to unite
to fight imitation as vigorously as
they did to win the war"
That, he added, would mean
sacrifices all along the line"
Senator Hatch said the man who
pays $500 or $1,000 more for q used
car than 1t cost originally is doing
himself and the country disservice,
and the dealer who takes that profit

money apparently was untouched,
police said.
Believing the man would return,
Pvt. Beale waited outside the build
ing. A colored man answering the
description given by the scout car
soon jumped from behind a parked
car and started to run, ignoring a
command to stop. The man made
his escape despite warning shot
fired by police.
Police today warned hospitals
and physicians to be on the alert
for a man about % years old, S feet
10 inches tall and weighing 165
pounds, who may seek treatment
