BY Cancellation Chief
By the Assoeiated Press

Edgar L. Warren, director of the
Federal Cancellation Service, said
today he had never advocated the
right of Government employees to
strike"
He also told Senate Appropria-
tions Subcommittee that he had be-
longed to two organizations ''desig-
mated as Communist fronts" for a
few months in 1888 but Withdrew
from both of those organizations
early in 1882"
Mr.. Warren left negotiations In
the telephone strike to appeal to the
senators to restore s598, 400 which
the House cut from operating funds
of the Cancellation Service for the
1948 fiscal year.
In the same action, the House
eliminated funds for the job OF the
conciliator, many of his key ofnclais
and more than 100 conciliation en-
ployes. The slash was made by the
House Appropriations Committee
on the grounds that MIR. Warren
had advocated the right of Govern

once belonged to the Communist

Presented to Committee
By John W. Thompson, Jr.

A roar of opposition to a l.
cent increase in the District
gasoline tax was heard today
by a Senate House committee
studying the city's money-rais-
ing problems.
Joseph e. Keller. executive secre-
tary of the District Petroleum In
dustaies Committee, placed before
the committee bundles of petitions
which he said contained more than
10000 signatures against the tax
increase.
Additional bundles OF petitions
also were added by j. M. Heiser.

ness Mems Associations.
witnesses Oppose Boost,
The petitions were accompanied
by a parade Of witnesses including
truckers, cab drivers, automobile
dealers and gasoline station opera
tors, none of whom had good
word to say for the rate boost which
Highway Director II. G. Whitehurst
has testified Is necessary to support
the future highway program of the
District.
The committee hoped to dispose
OF the gasoline tax witnesses this
morning and to begin taking testi-
nnony on the proposed sales tax this
afternoon.
Most of the witnesses today based
their opposition on the hardship
a 1-cent increase in the cost OF
gasoline would impose on them in
earning a living. Many admitted,
under questioning by Acting Chair
man Bates they had given no de-
tailed study to the f1ighway-im-
proyement program.
Woman Operator Testifles.
Taxicab witnesses included Mrs.
Lavona Haynes. who owns and oper-
ates her own cab. Mrs. Haynes told
the committee she has to work 10
to u hours day to make living
for herself and her three children.
The tax increase, she said, would
cost her $50 more year, or the
equivalent of four average working
days. Other witnesses In this group

of the Veterans Cab Association;
Alden T. Keeting Of the Yellow Cab
Co. and four of his drivers.
William E. Humphreys, represent
ing the District Trucking Associa-
tion, described Capt, Whitehurst's
program as "a beautiful nightmare. !"
He said the tax was not needed,
and levied against a specific class
for the benefit of the general public.
Mr.. Humphreys said he represented
400 trucks consuming 5000 900 gall
Ions of gasoline year.
Price War Threat Seen.
Lad Mills, a gasoline station OPP
orator, said leveling of of prices
in the District, Maryland and vir-I
yinia might bring about price war.
"They start in the fringe" he said,
and spread like grass fire."
The Virginia tax now is s cents
