UNEQUAL FOOD DISTRIBUTION
Cited in Economic Report. P. A.
By Joseph A. Fox
President Truman was told
last night by economic aides
that taxes should be kept high
''for the immediate future" to
finance the foreign aid program
and check imitation.
In report which assumes for
illustrative purposes" an outlay of
SO, ,0O0. 100000 for the first year of a
long range plan, the Council of Eco
nomic Advisers asserted that "the
general inf1ationary threat resulting
from the combined impact of for
eign and domestic demand requires
the continuance of tax revenues at
present levels, maximum economy in
Government expenditures, stimula-
ton of saving, and the enlargement
and aggressive use of measures to
control dangerous expansion of
credit"
The report, which covers one of
three studies around which the
President will shape his message for
the extra session of Congress on
November II outlining proposals for
helping Western Europe and check
ing the price spiral at home, also
called for controls to deal with the
world shortages in such items as
grain and steel.
It declared that "the relative ex-
port controls urged "the relative

Every aspect of the American
occupational policy in Japan is
directed toward making Japan
subservient to the United States,
both politically and economically.
The Americans hope to make
Japan a permanent colonial fac
tor of the United States and If
that is not possible, America
plans to make Japan subservient
to her for many, many, years.
TT is not difficult to predict
the conditions of the japanese
people under such an American
policy. They have sufficiently

0'Mahoney TO Lead
Fiqht for Revival Of
Excess Profits Tax
Senator Fovors Keeping
Rates Up os Long os
Income Continues High
By J. A. O'Leory

Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat,
of Wyoming. served notice last
night he will lead a fight to re-
vive an excess profits tax as a
means of checking the upward
spiral of prices whenever the
House sends a revenue bill to the
Senate.
He called the recommendations
of the Economic Council to Presi-
dent Truman last night mini
mum program of economic defense
and added:
IT think the report might well
have included a recommendation,
not only that tax rates should be
maintained as long as income con-
tinues to be high, but that some
form of excess profits tax be restored
so as to discourage extortionate price
increases.
Wartime Levy Repealed in 1916.
Rising prices such rs we have
been enduring. throughout this year
take far more. from the consumers
than any tax program, and they do
nothing to reduce the National debt.
They serve only to feed the flames
of imitation" ...~.
The war time corporation excess
profits levy, which reached rate
of 855 per cent. was repealed by
Congress on January 1, 1946. The
wyoming Senator has not decided
on the rate he will urge In seeking
to re-establish it.. He said he be-
lieves, however, that the revival of
this tax not only would discourage
price increases, but make unneces-
sarv the imposition Of specific price
controls"
Tax bills cannot originate in the
Senate, but if House Republicans
renew their efforts to cut individual
income taxes, Senator O'Mahoney
could offer his excess profits pro-
posal as an amendment whenever
the measure to lower personal taxes
reaches the Senate.
Senator O'Mahoney said statistics

Civic Rights Report
For D. {. Criticism
Connouehton Is Elected
To Succeed Newell,
Defeating DonneIIy

The Federation of Citizens
Associations last night con-
demned President Truman's
Committee on Civil Rights for
making a report that singled out
the District of Columbia with
out making themselves more
familiar with conditions" here.
After taking this action, the fed
Grafton elected as its new president
John H. Connaughton, a lawyer
who has frequently appeared before
the Public Utilities Commission as
vice chairman of the Federations
Public Utilities Committee. Mr.. Con-
naughton defeated Ralph w. Don
nelly, former District school teacher,
by vote of 81 to 46.
The federations retiring presi-
dent, Clifford H. Newell, presented
the resolution condemning the civil
rights report The resolution was
adopted with only one dissenting
vote. Mrs. C. B. Lowe, representing
the Federation of Women's Clubs,
voted against it.
Other Officers Chosen.
Other officers chosen were: First
vice president, Mrs. Olive G. Fair
cloth second vice president, Baxter
Smith; treasurer, Kenneth P. Arm
strong, and secretary. David Babp.
The following 10 members of the
Executive Board we're elected:
Mr.. Donnelly; Wilbur S. Finch,
George L. Gregg, ]. M. Heiser. Mr..
Newell, Mrs. Carrie G. Smith. Harry
N. Stull, Fred S. Walker, Harry S.
Wender and DR.. M Virginia O'Neill.
Placed in nomination for The
Evening Star Trophy for outstand-
ing civic work were Mr.. Finch for
his work on District representation
and three members who formed a
special committee that worked on
the Community Chest Survey Com
mittee headed by Attorney William
E. Leahy: Mr.. Connaughton, Mr.
Gregg and Mrs. Ernest w. Howard.
Resolution Quoted.
The civil rights resolution follows
Whereas report on civil rights
was recently published by special
committee, said to have been named
by President Truman. and
Whereas said report principally
confines its findings to conditions
and social life in the District of Co.
lumbia, although not a single men,
ber of this committee resides in
Washington, D. c., and
Whereas all, or at least most, of
said committee are active members
of organizations that are noteriously
biased and prejudiced against the
accepted and traditional customs
and traditions in the District of Co.
| lumbia,
Now, therefore be it resolved
that the Federation of Citizens As
sociationS, in regular meeting as
sembled this first day of November,
1947, deeply resents and deplores
many misleading and inaccurate
statements made in said report, and
condemns said committee for max
ing and publishing such report
without making themselves more
familiar with the conditions as they
exist in the District of Columbia
and
Further, that copies of this reso-

require export controls, allocations
for domestic use, encouragement of
misuse or excessive use, efficient
transportation and distribution and
the curbing OF speculation and
the boarding of goods" The coun-
Gil said there is no need for "a con-
troll mechanism comparable in size
to the war period
1t has been generally predicted
that this field of controls would be
covered-at least in part-in Presi-
dent Truman's recommendations to
Congress. At present, some export
controls still are holding over from
wartime, but they will expire Febru-
ary 20 in the absence Of new legis-
lation. Installment buying restric-
tions ended yesterday.
The council was credited a year
ago under the so-called full en-
ployment law" to devise programs
for stimulating production and en-
ployment.
It's tax views attracted particular
interest because of the likelihood
that the next Congress will see a
renewal of the Republican drive to
cut taxes-a step which the council
said should await the end of the
''inflationary danger"
Comedies Imitation Is Here.
The council, headed by DR.. Edwin
G. Nourse, was directed by the Presi-
dent to study the impact of a for
eign aid program on the domestic
economy.
Conceding that serious imitation
of grain and food prices is already
here" the council in a summation
that also takes issue with the argu-
ment that exports are mainly re-
sponsible either for shortages or
high prices at home. says:
There is abundant evidence that
the foreign aid program will
add to the strength and security of
our own economy for the simple
reason that we live in a world econ
omy from which we cannot dis
associate ourselves.
Without new foreign aid, Europe
is threatened with starvation and
disease; lack of raw materials and
Equipment impede further recov-
cries in agricultural and industrial
production. Moreover, Europe would
be forced into an entirely different
