Truman, Congress Girding For Battle On Finances

WASHINGTON. CP) - Fresh signs of deep-seated differences between Capitol Hill and the White House were clearly appar- ent yesterday as the 80th Con- gress reassembled in an atmos- phere of election-year wariness.
 The gulf which divides the President and the Republican controlled legislative branch was pointed up perfectly by new re- port that MT. Truman might pro pose higher taxes on corporation profits in order to leave a margin for low bracket personal income tax relief without cutting total government revenues.
 Even as MT. Truman was put ting the finishing touches to what lieutenants described as a "Slug ging message" to be delivered in person today, Republicans staked out the lines for a fight of their own to cut taxes and slash gov ernment spending.
 There were these session-eve developments to indicate that dull moments will be few and far be- tween:
 1. Chairman Taber R.-N.. YD of the House appropriations commit tee called the Presidents report ed budget of $40,000, 0,000,O00 "too damn high" and promised to whit tie it down to size.
 ?. Chairman Knutson R.-MinnD of the House ways and means committee reiterated his deter mination, with leadership back ing, to jam through $500, 100000 tax-reduction bill which will pro vide at least a percentage reduc- ton for everybody.
 3. The administration aban- doned its attempt to have Con- gress specify a possible $17,000,- O00,000 outlay for European re- covery over the next four years but ran into new Republican re- mands for further alterations in the hotly debated Marshall Pro- gram.
 4. Top COP leaders in both Sen ate and House fired verbal

MIAMI, Fla. (P) A novel method of house assembly here is helping to keep Miami at the top of the list in postwar home con- struction.
 In developing Essex Village in suburban Hialeah, Thomas P. Coogan, regional vice president of the National Association of Home Builders and president of the Flo rida Home Builders. Association, has put his assembly ideas into mass production that has been yielding an average of two homes completed daily.
 The s7,O0O,OOO development will include GOO homes, 70 tWo- family houses and ll2 apartment units, the latter for rental. There also will be $4OO,0OO community center to meet the needs of the 5000 persons who will reside in the development.

lin Profit Cashing
BY Victor Eubonk
A,sceiosed Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, April stocks ran
into considerable selling today, but
the market maintained It's equilib-
rum fairly well.
Professionals inclined to cash
profits on the recent substantial
upsWing, despite bullish sentiment
regarding big Government spending
for defense and European reliefs
The feeling was that the rise may
have been oyerdone and the list due
for technical correction.
Good earnings, dividends and tax
reduction hopes remained as a
bolstering influence. Labor disputes
still were handicap but the Wall
Street strike failed to interfere seri-
ously with exchange operations.
Dealings were active throughout.
Losses running to a point or more
were trimmed in the majority Of
cases near the fourth hour.
Behind most of the time were
Santa Fe, Southern Railway, Allan
tic Coast Line, Chrysler, United
States Rubber, Goodrich, Montgom-
cry Ward, Douglas Aircraft, Boeing,
Lockheed, Schenley, Paramount Pic
lures, Kennecott, Pacific Western Oil
and Mission Corp.
Superior Oil leaned upward. Re-
sistant also were Great Northern
Railway, Eastman Kodak, Union
Carbide, Woolworth and Consoli-
dated Natural Gas.
Bonds were steady.

Pronksters XIII Monnequin,
Tell Police It's Hit-Run Death

Apparently unable to wait for
midnight and the official arrival OF
April Fools Day, pranksters last
night brought police rushing to the
scene of an accident, in the 17o0
block of II street NV.
There, a voice on the telephone
had reported, would be found the
body of a young woman, severed at
the waist by a hit-and-run motorist.
Pvts. James Thrift and Arthur
Dalton of the third precinct re-
sponded, but instead of calling an
ambulance they started calling
clothing stores to see If any one was
minus female mailikin.
The pranksters had placed the
dummy under car, sprinkled the
body" literally with ketchup, and,
perhaps, scampered away to some
unobtrusive place to watch the fun.
Always willing to go along with
gag, particularly on All Fools eve,
the two policemen transported the
unidentified casualty to Emergency
Hospital, where 1t was Officially pro-
nounced dead" by DR.. James
Green.
The manikin, now resting in
the squadroom of the third pre-
cinct, was wearing white socks,
black shoes, and is about 5 feet
tall.

cording to a message to stockholders
accompanying dividend checks. The
statement adds:
"At the present rate of produc-
ton. orders on our books for new
linotvpes would keen our plant busy
for two and one-half years, but
everv effort to increase production
is being made. Shipments of or
ders for parts and matrices are
more nearlv on current basis, and
deliveries Of machines are improv-
ing. However. orders for new lino-
tvpes continue to outnumber de-
liveries.
World conditions and import re-
Strictions may result in a reduced
foreign volume. Such a reduction
however. would be reflected in an
increased domestic sales volume
particularly in machine sales.
During this first half year we re-
ceived dividends amounting to $780,
roo before American taxes from our
English company. These dividends
are the first to be received since the
fiscal year 1912 and cannot be
looked upon as recurrino income.

In letter to customers, Merrill
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner e. Beane
states that seven of II leading rail-
roads predict higher earnings in
1913: high level steel operations are
forecast for the whole year, with
little change in earnings; oil COM
panies are especially cheerful al
though seeing foreign competition
several years in the future.
Automakers are optimistic but see
growing competition. They are
worried over the steel shortages and
expect profits to remain good Air
transport officials are guardedly op-
timistic; chemical profits may be
slightly lower: retail trade Is re-
turning to more normal patterns.
