Russian language broadcast over
United Nations facilities that
"the Soviet Union will continue
in the future it's struggle against

instigators of a new war"
THE Soviet Union" Mr.. Vishinsky
said, ''is faithful and consistent
champion of peace and security for

of international cooperation"

The text of his statement:
II am taking advantage of the
kind invitation extended to me te
say over the radio a few words OF
my own choice about the current
session of the United Nations Gen.
eral Assembly.
Il shall speak about the resolution
directed against war propaganda and
against instigators of new war
The resolution was accepted unani-
mously. This was a surprise to some
for in this resolution the instigators
of a new war were not named di-
rectly, as was done in the Soviet
draft resolution. There is no doubt
that the resolution represents half

However, its first clause reflects
the main idea of the Soviet draft

for new war. This condemnation
answers the hopes of the working

Now Back Delay in
Tax Cut Legislation
Republican Chiefs Soy
Fight Will Be Pressed
At Regular Session
BY the Assoeiofed Press

The Republican high COM
mand apparently abandoned to-
day all plans for tax reduction
legislation at the special session
of Congress convening Novem-
ber II.
Chairman Knutson of the House
Ways and Means Committee said
after conference with Speaker
Martin, Il rather expect the $4,o0o,-
o0o, 1000 tax reduction measure to 60
over until January"
Mr.. Knutson's committee handles
tax legislation and the Minnesotan
has been the leading advocate of
tax legislation at the special session
However, he emphasized to re-
porters that taxes will be the first
matter of business when Congress
meets in January for the regular
session.
Would Be Effective January 1.
Mr.. Knutson said the measure, if
it becomes law, would make the tax
cuts effective as of January /, 1948.
Speaker Martin said yesterday it
was his inclination to put the tax
measure off until January, in view
of the limited time to deal with for
eign aid and economic legislation at
the special session.
It was because of Mr.. Martin S
statement that Mr. Knutson ar
ranged the conference with the
Speaker today.
After it broke up with Mr.. Knut-
sons announcement that he thought
there would be no special session
action on taxes, House Majority
Leader Halleck told reporters:
"As far as I have contacted vari-
Gus people, there appears to be no
slackening in the Republican deter
mination to bring about tax relief.
However, there appears to be no de-
mand that it come up in the special
session. / think it is highly ques-
tionable that it will come up"
Halleck Pledges Fight.
Mr.. Halleck, however, re-empha-
sized his stand for tax reduction
saying:
Again I want to pledge to the
people the Republican Party will
continue to fight for tax relief

burden in peacetime, with its drag

Foreign Aid Backers

Long Fight in Congress
Over Question Of Method!
And Procedures Expected
BY the Associated Press

Marshall plan storm signals
flew over Capitol Hill today, but
administration leaders credited
Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov
with unwilling but powerful help
in their possession drive for
congressional approval of a
European recovery program.
Mr.. Molotov's Moscow radio blast
at the United States, in which he
said that Russias struggle for power
"is just beginning" pinpointed for
many lawmakers the anti-Commu-
mist color of proposed stopgap and
long-range economic aid.
Senator McGrath, Democrat, Of
Rhode Island, chairman of the
Democratic National Committee,
said grimly that Mr.. Molotov had
defeated his own purpose if it was
his aim to discourage American &C
ton to help the Western European
nations outside the Soviet orbit stay
on their feet.

porter
On the Republican side, Senator
Capper of Kansas, a Foreign Rela-
tions Committee member, said he
expects Congress answer will be to
approve the assistance program
which Secretary of State Marshall
will sketch for Senate and House
committees Monday.
Lawmakers generally dismissed as
a bluff and a sop to home front
morale Mr.. Molotov's assertion that
the atomic bomb secret has long
ceased to exist" The industrial
know-how for making the bombs is
still believed to be beyond the Rus
SLAMS.
But while the latest verbal shots
in the Moscow-Washington "cold
war" obviously helped cement a
growing Capitol Hill determination
to do something for faltering Euro
pean democracies, there was plenty
of evidence that methods, pro-
cedures-and possibly the amount
of money to be spent-will be
argued long and loudly.
The biggest question marks were
being raised on the House side Of
the Capitol.
There, the special Committee on
Foreign Aid took official note of a
possibility that Congress might not
be able to complete work on an as

Bronson Due 10 Face
New GriI|ing Today
In Murder Trial

Eugene Bronson, 46, colored, was
scheduled to resume the stand this
afternoon in District Court for fur
ther cross-eXamination in his trial
on first-degree murder charges in
the death of Mrs. Carrie l.. Davidson,
"a, last November.
Bronson is accused of fatally stab
bing and robbing Mrs. Davidson in
her apartment in the 300 block of
Third street Sc.
Bronson testified yesterday he had
found Mrs. Davidson dead but
denied, as he had done previously
In a statement to police, that he
had killed her.
A high light of yesterdays
trial came when Justice Alexander
Holtzoff ruled out q defense effort
to introduce evidence in connection
with the alleged use of truth serum"
also known as sodium amytal.
Defense counsel had placed on the
stand DR.. Louis S. London, psy-
chiatrist, who said the truth serum"
affects the nerve centers of the
brain and that it would be impos-
sible for the defendant to tell a lie
while under its influence. Earlier, in
an opening statement to the jury,
Defense Attorney Edward B. Will
liarns said his client had denied
guilt while under influence of the
serum.
In ruling out the evidence in con-
nection with the serum, Justice
Holtzoff said he was mot satisfied"
the use of the serum "is a well
established, well recognized, scientific
routine"
Justice Holtzoff also held that
any testimony by defense witness
as TO what Bronson had said after
being administered the drug would
be hearsay evidence and therefore
tnadmissible.
Besides Mr.. williams, Bronson Is
represented by Attorney Frank F.
Robertson. The defendant is being
prosecuted by Assistant United States
