WASHINGTON. LP) - The Su- preme Court ordered today that it's mandate in the John l.. Lewis case be issued on March 2O--ll days ahead of customary time.
 The government had asked the court to act immediately to enforce its decision against Lewis and the United Mine Workers.
 The courts decision rcqu res that within five days after it's mandate is issuet Lewis must withdraw notice 10 the mine workers that the unions working contract with the government is ended.
 If not, it vii! cost the United Mine Workers $2,8OO,0O0.
 When uphclding the contempt convictions Of Lewis and the UNIV for disregarding a U. s. district Cour' order against last falls coal strike, the high court reduced a S3,5OO,00O fine against the union to S7OO,OOO.

The President said: "The produc-

this year cannot be measured alone
in terms of bushels and tons and
dollars. 1t must also be measured
in terms Of its great contribution
to democracy. To make it con-

commodities for such recovery are

In addressing the annual meeting
Of the American Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton Senator Thye said there is
no certainty that the present favor

OIL REFINERY TO RUSSIA

Some weeks ago there was big outcry in Congress regarding lend lease to Russia, and an amend ment was passed stepping all fur ther lend-lesse shipments. At that time, $25, 5,O00000 worth of oil re- finery equipment was about to leave the USA.
 Last week, however, Secretary of State Marshall sent a confidential cable to Undersecretary Of State Acheson which surprised those who know about it. Marshall asked that Congress OK shipment of the S25,- 100000 oil refining equipment to Russia.
 Marshall's request is based on the fact that the Russians already had obtained title to the oil equip ment under earlier lend-lease and since, he contends, they already own the property, he wants them to have permission to ship it. Some Congressmen are little dubious, though inclined to think that if any small concessions will make Marshall's path easier in Moscow, it should be granted.

Tn l9i6 the Federal government collected in income tax collections from Alaska the huge of Sl5, l87544 This is one reason why the Territorial Leg islature just ended had some difficulty in finding tax revenues to bring in about half Of that amount over two years.
 This is situation which exists not only in Alaska but in all the States and Territories, where the national taxes extracted leave little left for the local governments
 A. w Robertson, Chairman of the Westinghouse Electric Corp was so struck by the disparity of the tax schedules that he the following letter to all members of Congress:
 You will be astoniShed, I was, that l paid 37 times as much tax to the Federal Government as l paid to all other collectors Federal tax from 1922 through l946-$746717; all other taxes for the same period $202C0,. What is still remarkable, this S20200 paid for all public school facilities, all police protection tire protection sanitary service, including street cleaning and garbage collection While ind- vidual tax figures vary similar comparison of services could be shown by practically every taxpayer in the country whether he pays much little to the na- tional government. It seems to me that, unless We have embarked openly policy of confiscation of property the citizens the guise of taking current income from individuals regardless of services rendered in return Federal must be reduced until they are in line with other taxes"
 Mir Robertson undoubtedly pomt which bit of pondering by members of Congress. In comparison with the services rendered for the local tax dollars the Federal Government doesn't give the age taxpayer very much for his money War expenses

Training Not Unpopular
Cincinnati Enquirer

Surveying sample group of $500 Of its policy holders the Northwestern National Life Insurance Co has found out some interesting things about pubic opinion In recent poll of this group on military training it aScertained that 97 per cent laVor peacetime military training for all abebodied young men This is doubly impressive because only 8l per of that opinion in l944, when the company conducted a similar survey.
 The growth of sentiment for universal military training since the war ended may stare good many people. The usual assumption is that after war anything military becomes unpopular But with mil lions returning from active military service, there is public support for military tralnng III peacetime. Veterans rule have learned the advantages of learning the art of war before one is plunged into it.
 Furthermore the last year or two has been a period of tention world politics And it is being realized more clearly that adoption of universal mill tary training would materially strengthen our hand as nation in the conduct of foreign policy
 Of the 13 per cent Of policyholders opposed to universal military training in this recent poll fully half would favor type of training given through all public high schools Thus it appears that only about
 per cent the total actually opposed military training in any form whatever.
 These are figures worthy of attention in Congress than they to be getting. There is a manifest disposition among legislators to dodge the military training the theory that any program at all would be unpopular. Indeed, the tendency ] is all the other way. By slashing the budget six billions Congress is really proposing to try disarma nlent by example On the of the momentous Moscow conference, with the fate of Central Europe at stake we ought to adopting universal military training as policy in order to strengthen the forces resisting the Communist advance across Europe In stead we are watching Congress deliberately adopt q pecy of weakness by drastic in the armed .orces
 This is not only shortsighted in terms of national policy It also is out of line with public opinion, if there any significance whatever in the poll we have summarized.
