What It Means Tax Duplication
tBy Charles MolonY)


 ments look brighter than in years but not too promising at that.
 Of about O,OOO,OOO in fed eral and $5,000, 100000 in state collections in fiscal l946, more than 90 per cent came from taxes levied at both levels on the same things.
 The dual levies were income. death, gift, liquor, tobacco, gaso- line, admissions and stock trans fer taxes
 Reasons why chances for relief from some of this overlap are brighter than usual include:
 1. General revision of the feder- al tax system for the first time in a considerable period is to be studied by Congress at its next session. The administration has encouraged this study.
 2. A number of Senators and |, Representative who attended a recent Chicago conference with II governors agreed something should be done, and that the federal gov- ernment should take the first step by giving up certain tax fields to 1 the states.
 Revenue Needed
 But that last suggestion points up why the outlook is not too promising; both the federal and state governments require lot of revenue to pay for their opera tions, and each is inclined to favor having the other fellow pull out to end overlaps.
 Treasury department tax anal ysis of the question suggested guardedly that the federal govern ment might we'll put out of the gasoline tax field-'in exchange for state withdrawal from another field" It hinted at state withdraw | al rom tODdCCO IdxdLlOn. Conflicts Limited
 On the other hands, it said, con- flictS between federal and state income taxes are "not as broad as ' appears at first sight" and that, furthermore, taxpayers might as well assume they'll have to keep 1 on paying both.
 Latest available figures on col lections are for the fiscal years l946, the 12 months ending June 30, 1946. '. During that period, the Treasury Department said, 76.9 per cent ($18,705, ,O00,O00) of federal and 16.9 per cent ($395, ,OOO,OOO of state collections were from income taxes. Neither is likely to give up such an important sourse of rev enue. The treasury analysis said an integrated program might smooth out some conflicts, though. l Here are some further traesury views on overlapping taxes: 1. Tobacco-38 states tax it. It's the ninth best producer of state revenue, yielding $l98,OOO,0OO. It accounts for only 2.9 per cent of federal collections but that's S1, 1860 O,OOO.
 It's naturally easier for the fed eral government to administer to- bacco taxes. It collects from the rel atively few manufacturers States have to collect from wholesalers, retailers, and even consumers. Differentials Cited

2. Gasoline The states got $500, ,000, ,000, or l8 per cent of to- tai revenue, from this. Federal gasoline collections, thoug h amounting to $4O6, ,OOO, ,0OO were less than one per cent of all feder- al revenue.
 The report said it might be well for the government to quit taxing gasoline-limiting its spending on highways proportionately.

Legion S Legislative
Chief BIames Pacifists
For Unpreparedness

About 100 listeners crowded the
American Legion clubhouse last
night to hear universal military
training discussed by leaders repre-
senting opposing points of views.
Speaking for training was John
Thomas Taylor, national legislative
chief of the Legion. Opposing him
was the Rev. Charles j. Libby, foun-
der of the National Council for the
Prevention of War.
A former WAVE. Mrs. Paul H.
Rahe, of 1853 Columbia road NV,
said she came to the melting be-
cause she is so strongly in favor Of
compulsory training.
II wanted to Sc If my views would
stand UP to arguments" she said,
and they do"
Most of the audience, predomi-
nantly Legionnaires, agreed with
her and Mr.. Taylor.
Those who didn't however, in
cluded an 80-year-old Spanish
American War veteran, Methodist
minister and a District business
man.
The aged war veteran, Titus Ulke
who lives at the John Dixon home,
said he was afraid that universal
training would make militarisms too
strong in this country.
The Rev. John Swomby, 81, here

from New York on a visit. chal-
lenged Mr.. TAYLOR several times on
statements that our armed forces
were demobilized after World War
I and declared he thought heavy
training would foster mistrust and
suspicion throughout the rest OF
the world"
Elton r. Shaw, 81. of 310o Wis
consin avenue NV, said this coun-
try maintained strong Navy after
World War I and "still managed to
spend $25 5000, 100000 on national
defense. If this wasn't enough to
secure us how much would con-
tinued mobilization cost?" he asked
Mr.. Taylor charged that respon-
sibility for unpreparedness in World
War II rests largely on pacifist or
ganizations "who preached false
doctrines that were largely respon-
sible for our failure to maintain
sound security programs"
Backs Aid for Greece.
Strongly supporting President
Truman's message of proposal for
aid to Greece and Turkey, he
stressed the need for trainees to
fill ranks of the National Guard
and reserve corps.
Mr.. Libby declared the only road
to world peace is to "help rehabili-
tate war-torn nations of the world"
1.-THE President has asked for
both guns and food for Greece"
he said. II am convinced we must
choose between them"
Charging that the Presidents
proposal amounted to what he
termed political loans, he declared
that "this is another phase of the
same false theory which has led
the President to ask for universal
military training program"
The speakers views were presented
on Commute broadcast over Sta
ton WINK, after which Mr.. Taylor
and Mr.. Libby answered questions
from the floor.

Brig. Gen. Emil c. Keil, read the
sentences.
Defendants Are Calm.
Most of the defendants received
their sentences with outward calm.
A doctor was in attendance for
Mrs. Koch, because of her advanced
pregnancy. The hard-faced, red
haired widow, who allegedly shared
the camp rule with her comman-
dant husband, was accused of hav-
ing prisoners killed SO she could
make lamp shades. purses and book
bindings out of their tatooed skin.
She tried unsuccessfully to escape
trial because of her pregnancy
which has never been offlcially ex-
planned. Her husband was executed
by the Nazis several years ago.
25o,0oO Held in Camp.
1t has been estimated that ap-
proximately 250,O00 prisoners were
held in the Buchenwald camp at one
time or another during the Nazi re-
gime
After the German surrender, Gen.
George S. Patton, jr., forced groups
Of German civilians to view the
scenes of horror which American
troops found in the camp in order
to impress on them the immensity
Of the crimes committed by their
Nazi leaders.
The camp is now in the Russian
occupied zone Of Germany. Some
weeks ago Max Brauer, mayor OF
Hamburg, reported that the camp
had been reopened by the Russians
and that 800 members of the Ger
man Social Democratic Party had
been confined there on political
charges.
