House Group 10 Probe
Gripping Of Federal
Tax xColection Work
BY The Associated Press

A House Appropriations Subcom-
mittee has announced an immedi-
ate investigation to determine why
the Internal Revenue Bureau "is
deliberately crippling' its tax COL
lecting machinery.
President Truman, in signing an
appropriations bill Tuesday, said it
reduced the bureaus funds SO
severely sit will take years to re-
store the damage done by the fail
ure of Congress to support the cur
rent efforts of our tax collecting
agency"
He said the cut of the bureaus
funds would mean a reduction of
1000 to 5000 employees and "a direct
loss of revenue of not less than
S4O0, 100000 in the fiscal year 194S."
Representative Dirksen, Democrat,
of Illinois, who announced the in
vestigation late yesterday, said
"once more we are confronted with
bureaucratic arrogance in subvert-
ing the intent of the Congress-" he
added:
1T now appears that the Bureau
of Internal Revenue intends to
make the Presidents prophecies of
lost revenue come true.
I'VE are advised that the bureau
has ordered a reduction in the COL
lection and enforcement sections,
Notwithstanding the fact that the
subcommittee specifically admon-
ished the bureau to develop more
vigorous enforcement and make its
reductions in a top-heavy admin
istrative staff which is larger by
thousands of persons than the en-
tire enforcement staff"
The subcommittee that will inves-
tlgate is headed by Representative
Garfield, Republican of Neu .Iersav

Navy Is Refrenching
To Keep Efficiency Of
Fleets, Denfe|d Says
BY the Associofed Press

PEARL HARBOR. July 3.-The
Navy is carrying out a drastic re-
trenchment program to keep fleets
in the Atlantic and Pacific operat-
ing efficiently, Admiral Louis E.
Denfeld said yesterday.
We've gone all out to keep the
fleets active" said the commander
in chief of the Pacific Fleet. who
recently returned from conferences
in Washington. I'VE know that if
We keep the fleets at any real ef-
ficiency level, We have to cut down
on shcre operations"
AS a result of this new economy
policy, the Navy is closing out its
wartime base on the Aleutian island
of Attu and is reducing to caretaker
status its base at Kodiak, Alaska.
That leaves Adak in the Aleutians
as the major base in northern
waters.
Navy Quitting Manus.
The Navy is getting out of Manus.

of New Guinea, and rapidly is roll
ing up other bases which were used
as springboards in the westward
drive to conquer Japan.

H. Towers. chief of the Navys Gen
eral Board. is directing surveys OF
all naval installations for the pur-
pose of looping off unessential ac-
tivities and effecting economies in
line with the Navy's reduced peace
time appropriations.
Guam and Pearl Harbor will be
great Pacific bases of the future.
Admiral Denfeld said. with Pearl
Harbor the keystone of Pacific de-
fenses.
While the Navy Is reducing its
operating centers in Alaskan waters,
the admiral continued, the Aleu-
tians and Alaska still will have

fields and installations.
Okinawa Base Held Important.
Admiral Denfeld said he thought
it important that the United States
maintain defensive bases in Okl-
nawa, where the Army Air Forces
now has fields.
Il think we will be able to keep
what we want on Okinawa," he
said, adding that Americas posi-
ton there will depend upon Jap
anese peace treaty agreements.
Most of the millions poured into
wartime bases are being written off
as the cost of victory.
On Manus, for example, where
the United States spent about $13l,-
600 900 for naval installations, roads
and airflelds, the admiral said little
would be recovered The jungle is
areas that once teemed
with activity. The properties there
have been declared surplus.
For time, Admiral Denfeld said,
it had appeared that the Iowa-only
operating battleship in the Pacific
would have to be laid up. But now.
he said it is possible to keep the
big warship active, along with
carriers, is cruisers, go destroyers,

LOCAL FIRE LOSS
IS BELOW AVERAGE
Wilmington's Average Loss
Per Fire Revealed
To Be 500
Special To The Star

NEW YORK, May 16-The record
of fire prevention and control
turned in by Wilmington for 1916
proved to be better than that OF
most cities over 10000 population
in the United States, the National
Fire Protection association re-
ports. Nearly 500 cities submitted
comparable data to the assocla-
ton.
Wilmington ended the year. with
a total fire loss of $11l,577, equiva-
lent to $2.35 per capita. This rate
compares favorable with the aver
age loss of $3.50 per person shown
for the other cities.
The local fire departments eff
fiency is indicated by the fact
that the 800 building fires that
broke out during the year were
brought under control quickly and
damage kept to a minimum. The
average loss per fire was 1910,
compared with 1854 in the other
cities.
The association notes that the
cities were harassed by 1884
malicious false alarms in 1916,
or 1914 per cent of the total calls
answered. The cost of fire pre-
vention was increased and the fire
departments effectiveness reduced
greatly as a result, if points out.

DRAGON BOWL GOES
TO CHINAMAN FROM
SEATTLE LAUNDRY

SEATTLE - UD -Bespectacled
Henry X. K. Chinn wears a mod
est smile as he goes about his
business in Seattle's Chinatown.
Such modesty is becoming to
the man who battled his way to
the city's champion nah jongg
title in a field of tile-rattling ex-
perts.
Nah Jongg will be remembered
as a brief American fad in the
1905. The game was first played
in China some time around al
B. C. and is still played by the
Chinese.
Chinn won a landslide victory in
a tile-pushing contest which rep
resented the Pacific .Northwest's
top players. The Dragon Bowl
classic vas played in the back
room of the Twin Dragon Cafe in
the heart of Seattle's Chinatown.
Many persons have forgotten
Nah Jongg. but residents of
Chinatown here play the game as
often - and with as much excite
ment-as crap games on a troop
transport.
