Albanian Premier
Lays Border Clashes
To u. S. and Britain
By the Associofed Press

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia. July
14.-Gen. Enver Hoxha, Com
munist Premier of Albania, de-
clared in Tfrana today that
Greek-Albanian border Incl
dents "are part of a general
anti-democratic plan of Anglo
American reactionaries whose
aim is to bring about a new
war, recommended by Trumans
doctrine.
Gen. Hoxha spoke before the
Albanian National Assembly.
He declared his government
had documents testifying that
certain American and British,
representatives had made prep
arations to overthrow his
regime
Referring to Albania's refusal
to participate in the Paris Eco
nomic Conference, he de-
nounced the Marshall proposal
as a second Truman doctrine of

Gov. Dewey fatty refused to be
drawn into discussion of the Re-
publican income tax reduction bill.
This Governors conference, !"
Gov. Dewey said, 'is devoted to
the business of the States. That is
what I am here for-not to discuss
or give advice to Congress on legis-
lative matters before it-nor to
talk national politics"
Repeated questions were uravail-

Yorker to discuss either the tax bill
or the new Taft-Hartley Labor Law.

The general makes it clear. how
ever, that despite many urgings to
return for a triumphal welcome-he
has not been in the United States
for 10 years-he does not intend to
do so until the occupation job Is
finished and a peace treaty signed.
Oficials here believe the peace
treaty can be completed in from IL

Jewish Underground
Defies British Army
To Free Hostages
Ifeun Says Sergeants
Are Safe and Can Be
Held Month or More
By the Associated Press

JERUSALEM, July 14.-Irgun
IZvai Leumi-Jewish underground
organization - today defled the
British Army and police to free
two British Army sergeants
whom it boasted of kidnapping
and confining as hostages for
three Irgunists under death SEN
tence.
The Irgun announcement said the
sergeants were unharmed and "in
a place where they can be kept a
month or more"
British authorities, meanwhile,
intensified their search for the
hostages and served notice that
unless they were returned by to-
night, martial law would be i'm
posed on Palestine's diamond cap
ital of Natanya, 40 miles north of
Tel Aviv. The sergeants-Clifford
Martin and Mervin Paice-were
abducted from in front of Ma
tanya cafe.
Tonight's deadline was the third
the British have announced since
the kidnapping Saturday.
Hagana May Re-enter Hunt.
Reports circulated that Hagana
Jewish national defense army,
which is pledged to maintain Or
der in the Holy Land during ses-
sions of the United Nations Pal
estine Committee-might rejoin the
search. The organization with
drew from the hunt Saturday be-
cause of what it called ''interfer-
ence" by British troops.
Troops, searching from bohse to
house in villages surrounding Ma
tanya, were reported under orders
to seek only the hostages and their
captors and to ignore any discov-
cries of illegal arms or suspects not
connected with the abduction.
Mayor Ben Ami of Natanya had
been notified by Irgun that the two
sergeants would not be turned
loose unless Gen. Sir Alan Gordon
Cunningham, British high commits
sioner, commuted the death sem
tences imposed on three Jews con-
victed of participating in the Acre
Prison delivery last May.
U. N. Hearings Continue.
The U. N. Commission continued
its hearings over the " ;ek end and
yesterday heard ar uments by
Samuel Mikunis, seer 5ary OF the
Jewish Communist Pa. " Of Pales-
| tine, for British acuation of
Palestine and the establishment of
an independent, democratic, BIZ
unitarian state"
Evacuation of B v;sh forces also
was urged by DR.. w. E;rich, member
of the party's central committee.
Hagana In memorandum to the
u. N. committee asserted that its
military strength was adequate to
defend Jewish Palestine against at
tacks from the Arabs of this country,
whether or not they are assisted
openly or secretly by the military
forces Of neighboring GArab) states"
The memorar dum also assailed
the British government, which 1t
asserted had declared open war on
the Jewish people and its struggle
for liberation" And add6 that

share of high profits" he concluded:
II am sure that they, as RESPONSE
BILE leaders of industry, will want to
invest a portion of those profits in
the maintenance of business stability
and prosperity for all our people"
driving S. Olds, chairman Of
the board of the United States
Steel Corp, said in a letter to the
New York Times yesterday that
the new coal contract must in
evitably result in a material in
crease in the cost of mining coal,
which will probably necessitate an
increase in the price of coal and
undoubtedly an increase in the
price of steel and perhaps some
other products in the manufac-
ture of which coal plays an i'm
portant role.")
Deep Concern Expressed.
The President spoke of deep con-
cern' being expressed in many quar-
tiers over the results of the recent
settlement between John L. Lewis
United Mine Workers and the coal
operators. He mentioned widespread
fear that it might lead to substantial
increases in coal and commodity
prices as we'll, resulting in renewing
"the inflationary spiral" I
This would be a serious blow to
our economy and to the continuance
of the present high level of pro-
duction and employment" Mr.. Tru-
man said, but such blow need
not fall upon us"
The following is the text of Mr..
Truman'S statement:
Deep concern is being expressed
in many quarters over possible re-
suits of the recent settlement be-
tween the miners and the coal op-
orators. 1t is widely feared that
this settlement may lead to a sub
stantial increase in the price OF
coal, which is an important factor
on the cost sheets of American in
dustry, and that this would in turn
induce an increase in commodity
prices and renew the inflationary
spiral which we had much reason
to hope had been halted.
This would be a serious blow
to our economy and to the con-
tinuance of the present high level

Retail Official Sees
U. 5. Probably Near
Or Past Price Peak
But Only Bad Depression
Will Restore 1889 Levels,
Ney Tells Joint Committee
By the Associated Press

Jerome M. Ney, board chair
man of the American Retail Fed
Grafton, said today "it is probable
we are near or past the peak OF
prices.
But Mr.. Ney, a former deputy
price administrator, added that he
made this statement with reserva-
tions because he is wary just now
with grain prices acting up and
meats showing marked upward &C
tivity as a result"
Ia He emphasized that only a severe
depression would bring prices back
to 1899 levels and that "the Ameri-
can public should adjust its thinking
to that fact"
Mr.. Ney outlined his views in q
statement prepared for the Joint
Congressional Committee on the
Economic Report, which is trying
to chart a course toward a stable
American Economy.
Proposes U. S. Goals.
To this end, the witness proposed
that the Nation strive toward a
bench mark" of twice the indus
trial production of 1889, a leveling-
off goal of 100000 employed, and
a national income of $185, 900, 900, ,000
year-about $7,00o,000,000 more
than at present.
In other statements presented to
the committee:
l. C. Wilson Harder, president nt
the National Federation of Small
Business, said that "if there is to be
a future for small business Of this
Nation, with the public being the
principal beneficiary, the main and
foremost action of this committee
should be Ito see that there Isl
vigorous and immediate antitrust
enforcement"
Mr.. Harder recommended that
Congress make a special appropria-
ton of at least 100000 to the
Justice Departments Antitrust Divi-
sion for prosecution of all pending
monopoly cases and to investigate
the problem of concentration" o1
big business.
Sees No Employment Threat.
2. Arthur R. Upgren, professor OF
economics at the University of Min
nesota ana associate editor of the
Minneapolis Star, declared he sees
no serious threat to the extremely
high level of employment (cur-
rently more than 60,600,000 that
will come this year, or next year, OF
even in the year after that"
Mr.. Upgren said that to maintain
a high-level productive economy the
Government should, among other
things, plan to promote home con-
struction and city redevelopment
costing between $1,000 100000 and
$40 0,000, 100000 annually.
Mr.. Ney told the committee "a
heavy responsibility rests on Ameri.
can business to make voluntary
price cuts on many items He
added:
Labor must help by being mod
crate in it's wage demands and by
helping to increase productivity
Farmers must help with all-out pro-
duction."

Evening star., 1947-07-14
BY J. A. O'LeoY

AS the Senate approached a
vote today on the January 1 in
come tax cut proposal, the issue
of spending abroad to promote
peace was being used both for
and against the bill.
Administration forces, seeking to
sustain President Truman's expected
veto, warned that 1t is too soon to
cut taxes, with the world situation
depending so much on current plans
to get Europe on its feet.
Some supporters of the tax bill
were turning the same argument
around, however, and contending
the American people would not GO
approving big outlays for relief from
the aftermath of war abroad unless
they get some tax relief at home.
Veto to Be Real Fight.
The vote on Senate passage,
whether it comes today or tomor-
row, will be merely a prologue to
the real fight, which will come
later in the week when Republicans
try to put the tax cut through over
President Truman's announced veto.
When the Senate reconvened to-
day, Senator Mcclellan, Democrat,
of Arkansas, was still battling for
his community property amend
ment, to permit married. couples
throughout the country to divide
their incomes for tax purposes.
Senator Mcclellan insisted he had
a fighting chance" with at least
81 votes for his amendment, but
Republican leaders were just as
confident of preventing adoption OF
this or any other amendment to the
House-approved bill.
inequality Recognized
At present, husbands and wives
may divide their incomes if they
live in one of the 13 States that
have passed community property
laws. COP leaders recognize the in
equality in the present situation
and have promised to do something
about it next year. They say. how
ever, the subject is too complicated
to legislate on hastily.
Republicans also are hesitant tc
take another $500, ,OO0, ,0O0-the cost
of the community property amend
ment-off the Governments in
come.
The bill already involves a cost
of 81, ,00O, 900 900 for the full calendar
year 1948.
Narrow Margin Certain.
With one or two votes likely tc
decide the fate of the tax bill
there have been reports that accept.
ance of the community property
amendment might tip the scales
enough to put the bill through over
the veto.
Republican leaders, point out
however, that adoption of the COM
munity property amendment might
drive away from the bill as many
votes as it would attract. At any
rate, their present inclination is tt
fight the bill out as it now stands
providing for fat percentage cuts
in the income taxes of $4,000, ,00(
individuals ranging from 80 per cent
in the low-income groups, to TO-;
per cent at the top.
