But although vice premier, Miko-
lajczyk is rarely consulted in the
coalition government and actually is
the outstanding opponent of the leftist
regime. His inclusion has proved moth
ng more than a device to meet the
letter of the Yalta conditions.
Last week Mikolajczyk charged
more than $4,000 members of his party
had been arrested, at least Is can
didates barred from the ballot and
hundreds of thousands removed from
the voters lists.
He claimed that gangs had beaten
party members, wrecked their shops
and mauled groups passing out cam
paign literature.
Mlkolajczyk was given time for two
radio speeches but the government
required him to submit texts of what
he intended to say "a hours in advance
and exercised rigorous censorship.
Three US. Protests
The US. State Department and
Britain protested on three occasions
that the letter as well as the spirit
of the Yalta and Potsdam agreements
was being violated. On each occasion
the Russian government was asked tc
join in the protests to Warsaw but or
each occasion it failed to reply. I
The prediction pattern in POLAND
appeared similar to the series o

satellite states where leftist regime

Labor'S reaction was immediate
Everywhere the military lorrieS drew
up with supplies for empty shops,
workers walked out. The paralysis
started in London's huge wholesale
markets (Smithfield, Covent Gardens,

TO other major cities.
Strike leaders warned their men to

Statistics
An All-Time High

Income payments to individuals IN
November reached an annual rate of
$l74,2OO,0 100000, according to the De-
partment of Commerce.
The month was the fifth in row
in which income payments, on the
departments seasonally adjusted IN
dex, exceeded the wartime peak
reached in February. 1945.
November payments were regis
tered on the index at 1898 against a
l935-39 average of 100 and a wartime
peak of 245.2.
For IL months Of 1916 income pay
ments to individuals were equivalent
to the annual rate of 1887 billion dol
lars, almost percent above the 'n45
annual total of 1907 billion.

persons with incomes up to S3OO,0OO.
His stand was buttressed by report
of the small business advisory COM
mittee of the Department Of Com
merce which called for flat 70 per-
cent cut in individual income taxes.
The committee is composed OF Ii busi-
pessmen from all parts of the country
appointed by Henry Wallace. It's re-
port was released without comment
by Secretary of Commerce Averill
Hartman, Wallace's successor.
One Republican, however, broke
ranks. Sen. Wayne Morse (Ore.) said
he would rather go out of the Senate
than deal in a political hypocrisy with
those who tell us we can have 20
percent cut in. taxes"
Cuts in Military Strength
He charged that tax cuts proposed
by party spokesmen would necessitate
reducing military strength and lessen
ing this country's influence in Europe
He said:
''Unless statesmen of our country
have the political courage to tell
Americans about the importance of
remaining strong and sharing respon-
sibilities in Europe, the War-is-over
attitude will sentence our children to
another war"
Secretary of the Treasury Snyder
reported to Congress that the nation
could not afford" a general reduction
in taxes
Snyder said high-level taxes must
be maintained to get budget surplus
for debt reduction and also to hold
down inflationary pressures-presum-
ably by draining off some Of the buy
ing power.
Change of Heart
Republicans who earlier had talked
of ending speedily the excise taxes on
liquor, furs. jewelry and other lux
uries, had a change of heart Chair
man Knutson of the Ways and Means
Committee said that House tax leaders
would sponsor quick passage of legis-
lation to continue the wartime excise
taxes indefinitely.
The bill, forestalling an automatic
rollback of the excise list on July
with an annual revenue loss of one
and a half billion dollars: will be
given precedence over all other tax
bills.
Sen. Morse also split with his party
on proposed labor policy. A member
of the Senate Labor Committee and {
former member of the National Wal
Labor Board, he urged Congress tC
give top priority to perfecting the
Wagner Act.
IF Republicans continue their anti
labor and fiscal policies" he said
they will lose both Congress and the
White House in l948-and they vii
give us the worst era of labor unres
in our country"
