from Hungary since May IA, would
not come back to Hungary. Nagy's
wife, daughter and older son also
are out of the country. His 4-year-
old son, it was said, will be taken
to Switzerland.
Pro-American Hungarians said the
shift in power was a step in the
direction of a full-fiedged Com
mur1ist police state In Hungary,
which borders Russia and still is
under Soviet occupation.
Nagy's advisers forecast an inten-
sified Communist drive to nationalize

am. (CDT) today In a roaring
pursuit of s132,eoo in prizes that
waited at the end OF the 31st an

lap. Mauri Rose Of Chicago was
third. Bill Holland, the newcomer
from Bridgeport, Conn, spurted all
the way from eighth to fourth place
on the first circuit. Russ Snowber-
ger, veteran Detroit racer, was run
ming fifth.
The time for the first lap was
122.516, a new track record that sup
planted Jimmy Snyder's mark of

Horn Has to Stop.
Horn pulled into the pits after
only five laps and mechanics worked
frantically with the engine.
The blistering speed of Bergere's
Novi shattered another record at
10 miles. His average was 124.2Is
miles an hour for the first four laps
as he steadily increased the pace as
against Jimmy Snyder's 1899 mark
of 124.031.

Dirksen Will Seek
Additional 200 MiIIior
Cut in Army Funds
Reduction Would Offset
MiIitory Aid Outlay
In Greek Turkish Bill
By the Associated Press

The threat of a new 5000, ,000.-
900 cut hangs over the War De-
partment's 1s4S budget, already
slashed 475,S0s,o77 by the House
Appropriations Committee.
Representative Dirksen, Republi.
can, of Illinois, a member oi
the Appropriations Committee, tolc
newsmen he is drafting an amend.
ment to chop the additional money
out of the bill as an offset against
military funds provided in the
$500 900 600 Greek Turkish Aid Act
Mr.. Dirdsen said at least half o.
the Greece Turkey money will bt
used for military purposes and con.
sequently the regular military ap.
preparation for 1948 should be cut
by that amount.
He added that he expects to OBJ.
tain the support not only of the
House budget-cutting bloc but alst
OF opponents of the original ait
measure-designed to bolster tn.
two Mediterranean countries against
communism.
Debate Scheduled Tuesday.
The Dirksen amendment, along
with proposal to add $40, 600 ,00t
to the S5,240,982 ,423 Army supply
bill probably will come before the
House for decisions next Tuesday
when the measure Is scheduled te
be debated.
The amendment increasing the
appropriation by $40,000,000 will be
offered by Representative Mahon
Democrat, of Texas, also an Appro-
priations Committee member.
The additional money would bt

store a committee cut.
Would Buy 749 Planes.
Mr. Mahon claims the effect of the
committee reduction will be to GU!
from 932 to 561 the number of new
planes the Army wants to buy
during the fiscal year beginning
July /. Even the full $400, 900 900
he said, would buy only 749 planes
because of higher costs since the
estimates were compiled.
Unless the money Is restored, the
Texan added, this will wreck the

George Says Senate
Will Back Truman If
He vefoes Tax Bill
Senate and House Set
To Rotify Conference
Agreement Monday
BY the Associated Press

Senator George. Democrat, of
Georgia, a leading Democratic
tax authority, predicted today
that If President Truman vetoes
the income tax reduction bill,
the Senate will uphold his &C
ton.
Senator George, who voted for
the bill reluctantly" told reporters
he will not vote to override the
President if veto comes.
The President returned to WASH
ington late yesterday, a few hours
after Senate-House conferees agreed
on final. terms of the legislation,
but there was no word from the
White House as to Mr.. Truman's s
intentions toward the bill. He has
said several times in the past few
months that this Is not the time
to lower taxes.
Both Houses are set to ratify on
Monday the agreement reached by
the conferees in less than two
hours yesterday. The President has
10 days from the time the bill
reaches him to approve or veto it.
New Tables Rushed to Printer.
Meanwhile. the Internal Revenue
Bureau rushed toathe printer-just
in case-the new tax withholding
tables to be used If the bill becomes
law.
Officials stressed that they have
no idea, one way or the other, but
are getting ready because there will
be little time to meet the July
deadline for getting the new tax
reductions into effect If the meas
ure goes through.
The tables would guide employers
In adjusting the amount Of tax
deductions from pay checks.
The 52-to-34 vote by which the
bill passed the Senate Wednesday
virtually ruled out any possibility
that advocates of the tax cut could
assemble the two-thirds' vote which
would be needed in each house to
override a veto.
Senator Georges stand reflected
what appeared to be a general
Democratic sense of party loyalty
toward the Chief Executive.
