BATTLE
LINES FORM

Washington (LPA)-Already the
sides are shaping up for the battle
over taxes which will break out
when the 81st Congress meets in
January.
Sen. Walter F. George 3D., Ga.),
one of the "silent" Dixiecrats dur
ing the election fight, who is slat-
ed to recapture his old spot as
chairman of the Senate Finance
Committee, announced last week
that he will oppose President Tru-
mans request for excess profits
tax restoration.
at would lead to a destruction
of business" the veteran southern
spokesman for northern business
interests said.
On the other side of the tax fight
are Sens. j. Howard McGrath,
Democratic Natl Committee chair
man, and Joseph C. O'Mahoney of
Wyoming, who may be chosen pre-
sident pro-tempore of the Senate.
Both urged last week that the levy
on swollen corporate profits be re-
enacted.
O'Mahoney, who fought unsuc-
cessfully for an excess profits curb
during the S0th Congress, pointed
out that profits are at an all time
high, and said that industry must
make its contribution to financing
the mounting public debt.
Although not endorsing the ex-
cess profits tax proposal, even re-
dictionary lame duck Rep. Harold
Knutson (R., Mimi author of the
"aid-the- rich" tax bill passed by
the 80th Congress, conceded that
must be made to in
crease their contribution to the fed
eral treasury. He suggested last
week that regular corporation in
come levies be upped 40.
Chastened perhaps by his failure
to be reelected, the long time friend
of big business admitted that the
steel companies are making too
much money.
Still unrepentent, however, is
the Natl Association of Manufac-
turers. Last week the NAM plead
I'd for further tax cuts for the
It's president, Morris
Sayre declared that "this is the

New Dock Contract Offered
After Union Rejects Pldn

New York (LPA)-Backed up by
a 16-to-one m m b S h ip vote
against the dockers' last offer, the
Int'l Longshoremen's Association
AFL this week was successful in
obtaining what liza President JOS
eph Ryan called "fine agreement. :"
The new contract agreement, which
now goes to ILA's members for
ratification or rejection, has at
least temporarily forestalled
strike of the unions 10000 MEM
bers on the Atlantic and Gulf
coasts.
The new contract, which would
run for one year instead of the
two-year term proposed in the en-
ployers' FINAL offer," provides for

other hand, maintained that while
some consumers have had prices
raised others are getting cement
and steel at lower rates than they
did under the basing point system.
Industry heads in the businesses
that have been using the basing
point answer monopoly charges by
claiming that if they are not per-
mitted to absorb freight costs con
sumers will be at the mercy Of local
monopolies-nearby firms which
can undersell distant competitors.

Cincinnati (LPA)-Secretary of
Labor Maurice Tobin, at press
conference here following his ad-
dress to the AFL convention, took
in his stride a flock of questions
shot at him by an army of about
35 newspapermen.
Among the points he made, in
answer to the newsmen's lombard
ment, were these: New legislation
replacing the Taft-Hartley act
should contain machinery for
handling nation wide or industry
wide strikes. AFL suggestions on
what such Legislation should con-
tain "will definitely be considered
in drafting the bill" Voluntary in
flation controls won't work; legal
compulsion is needed.
Uncle Sam should get out of all
minor industrial disputes and local
differences. There's no objection to

''Quianna," Nome's Own: Returns
 From Hollywood

Mrs. Minnie "Quianna" Munz, returned home to Nome Monday night via Alaska Airlines, after an exciting interlude of appearing in a Semi-stellar capacity in the Uni rsal-International product o n Arctic Manhunt"
 Tt was all so wonderful" said Mrs. MunZ, ''it seems like a hea- venly dream, and I want to pinch myself to see if 1 am awake and it all happened to ME" Everyone treated me like a queen. They bought me clothes; took me to the Palladium, Ciro's for dinner, the Brown Derby, and Graumann's Chinese Theater.
 When questioned if she had put her footprint with the other stars in the cement at Graumann' s Chinese Theater, Minnie smiled and said 'tNo, but some day may be mine will be big enough to be there"
 The stars, la femme, of Holly wood drooled over her luxurious furS, which she was required to wear most of the time even though Hollywood climate (don't ask the Golden Staters) is trifle warmer than that of Nome.
 Quianna is thoroughly convinc- ed there are truly magicians in Hollywood. She knew her brother whom she had never seen had been in California the. last time she heard of him.
 After her arrival Quianna told Director Ewing Scott about her brother. Otenna was located in San Pedro, where his name had gone through an Americanization process and emerged as Tom

 The murderer belongs to the outlaWed Moslem Brotherhood as- sociation, which has accused No krashy Pasha of weakness in pros ecuting the war in Palestine.
 The battle in the Negev desert of Southern Palestine is in it's sixth day and has moved within mortar range of the Egyptian from tier. Israeli sources said the truce of Dec. 1, had been broken also in Jerusalem. The Jews seemed to have cut the Egyptians coastal supply line.
 Britain called in the United Ma tions security council for an i'm mediate cease fire and withdrawal of Jewish troops from the Negev. Egypt declared Israel displayed a 'premeditated, most systematic and carefully synchronized" defi- ance of the council.
 Acting mediator Ralph Bunche turned in a report in which U. N. observers accused the Jews of at atcking the Egyptians. Bunche did not blame either side.

Recognition for Wives
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enquirer
 The University of Notre Dame at South Bend, Ind is not coeducational school but it is none theless awarding diplomas this week to 80 women. These are the wives of who have completed their academic work at Notre Dame and the certifi cates to be awarded will recognize officially that each wife has survived the postwar hardshps of South Bend housing the rgors of Indiana weather and with beyond the call of duty has helped her husband to happy graduation
 Married GIs who have availed themselves of gov ernment aid complete their education have not had an easy time of it. While the amount the government has been paying them for going to school may seem high by former standards it actually has been hardly enough to make ends meet in these days of high prices and this has been particularly true where couples have one or more children. Most of these veterans have taken their educational opportunities very seriously and their grades have been consistently higher than those of general student bodies. But, if things have been hard for the veterans themselves, they have been douby hard for their wives
 Not only at Notre Dame but in every other col lege in the country housing has been woefuy made ouate Families have been cooped up in one and two room trailers or damned into other temporary and unsatisfactory housing Through all of these diff cutes young wives have made the best of things and have shared inconvenience and discomforts in fine spirit There have been some unfortunate war mar rages" but there also have been great many fine and lasting unions, and among those Whlch seem destined for the best futures the marriages in which young wives have helped their husbands fight their way to an education.
 It is a gracious gesture that Notre Dame IS taking and one that the 30 concerned certainly deserve
