year 1851. The time is coming, I
hope, when we can consider short
term loans from the Government
to take the District over the hump
Of new construction.
In all probability, Mr.. Bates told
the committee, Congress will pass
the Federal pay bill. This, he ex-
planned, will impose an added burden
on the District of 100000 or $8,-
600 600 to meet salary requirements.
Obviously answering questions be-
fore they were asked by committee
members, Mr.. Bates said that II
real estate taxes were used as an
additional source of revenue, 1t
would mean that these taxes would
have to be increased by so per cent
to meet the Districts expected ad-
ditional needs. He pointed out that
real estate and property taxes were
increased by approximately 80 per
cent last year and cautioned that
Congress Ought to go slow before
putting too much more burden" on
real estate owners.
Touching briefly on the revised
income tax plan, Mr.. Bates said
that it would provide no additional
revenue, but would lift the tax bur-
den from those making less than
$1,000 a year.
Among Senators voting for the
bill was Senator Feazel, Democrat,
of Louisiana. 1t was Senator Fea-
zels first District Committee meet
ing since his appointment to sue
ceed the late Senator Overton, who
died recently here.
Poor Bookkeeping" Charged.
Senator Dworshak, chairman OF
the appropriations subcommittee
which handled the supply bill, said
the measure now before the Senate
can pretty well keep the budget
in balance without a pay raise" "
But the Idaho Republican empha-
sized that some of the provisions
written into the bill were, as mat
ter of fact, poor bookkeeping" He
Endorsed the need of a sales tax,
especially If a pay raise comes.
If Congress approves the Federal
pay raise, Senator Cain said, 1t
would automatically become eftec-
tive for about 5000 District workers.
This would then raise the question,
he said, as to whether other District
employees not in the classified serv-
ice, such as teachers, firemen and
police, also should receive an in
crease.
Corporation Counsel Vernon E.
West estimated that the sales tax
would really cost the average family
with a $1,000 income here less than
an increase in the real estate tax.
If a new revenue bill fails of enact
ment and the District runs into a
deficit, Mr.. West told the committee,
the District Commissioners would
be forced to increase the real estate
tax rate. Such a realty tax increase,
he calculated. would probably cost
this average family about $40 year
as contrasted with an estimated SIS
or 500 they would have to pay under
a sales tax.

Rail Unions 10 Ask
Congressional Aid in
Settling Wage Dispute
By the Associotsd Press

Railroad union leaders turned
from the White House to Con-
gress today in seeking a solution
of their long-standing labor dis
pute.
With White House settlement at
tempts broken off, the three union
chiefs decided to ask for con-
gressional investigation into the
administrations handling of their
wage and other demands.
The heads of the politically po-
tent unions are Alvanley Johnston
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, David B. Robertson of
the Firemen and Enginemen, and
Arthur j. Glover of the Switch
men.
Irritated by Army.
All three refused direct comment,
hut each plainly indicated irrita-
ton because the Army has refused
to negotiate with them since Pres
oident Truman's May II order seiz-
ting control Of the Nations rail sys-
TEN.
That order, backed up by a court
~edict against striking, was obtained
on White House orders to head off
the Nation wide rail walkout that
had been set for May H.
Mr.. Johnston, Mr.. Robertson and
Mr.. Glover went to Capitol Hill late
yesterday. But they failed to find
the Senators they sought and so
planned to resume their button
holing quest today.
This all developed after the three
union chiefs stalked angrily from
the White House yesterday, saying
Presidential Assistant John r. Steel
man had failed completely in his
three-week effort to bring the
unions and railroads together.
Want Improved Pay Contract.
The unions want an improvement
on the 1947 wage settlement agreed
to by other rail unions. This was
a 151a per cent hourly pay boost,
plus certain working rules changes
that also meant more money. The
three unions maintain they deserve
more because of living cost rises
Since ldSL year S SeCtleIHeut.
But the rail management has
flatly refused to change the pattern
fixed for the other unions.
There the situation stands. The
Army is maintaining nominal con-
troll over the carriers on the Presi-
dents instructions.
Nothing has been done on the
request of 20 rail unions that the
Government take over complete fl
nancial control of the carriers and
stake steps" toward Matchmaking
the system.
Mr.. Steelman said there will be
no attempt to call the parties back
to the White House unless some
basis of agreement seems evident
beforehand.
