sales have dropped sharply in some
Washington stores this year, Lever

cent in February.
Most of the drop off in local sales
were reported by chain stores, some
independents indicating no declines.

Gated sales throughout the Nation

HouseMayAct
Today on Record
D.. {. Budget Bill
Revenue Measure
Nay Delay FinoI
Congress Passage

House action is expected today on
the record slO1I 1I64,000 District
budget bill, but final congressional
action may be delayed until a def
cit-filling revenue measure Is
charted
The appropriation bill as re-
ported to the House, leaves gap OF
nearly $4,000 900 in finances for the
year beginning July /. counting on
the usual need of Sl00O000 to meet
deficiencies during the year. The
city heads propose to meet that py
the adoption of 2 per cent gen.
eral sales tax.
Chairman Bates OF the Fiscal
Subcommittee Of the House DIS
trict Committee said he wanted TO
wait about two weeks before taking
anv action on proposed additional
District taxes. He said ii seemed
likely Congress would pass a bill
granting Federal employees a raise,
which would be applied to District
workers
DELAY in Tax Plan Urged.
A pay raise may add between So
Ono 900 and S8,0O0.000 to District
costs next year. Mr.. Bates said
there would be no point, therefore,
In rushing ahead with a District
tax program until it was known
more definitely what will be done
about higher Government pay.
He is scheduled to confer tomor-
row with Chairman Cain OF the
Senate District Fiscal Subcommlt-
tee. Mr.. Bates said this would be
only to review the general pic
ture." rather than to determine
what extra taxes would be needed.
Adoption of a revenue bill is ex-
pected to be recommended, but as
vet there is no assurance as to what
this will be. because Of wide diff
ference of attitude as to the sales
tax.
Tax Plight Is shown.
The plight in which the District
might be left was high lighted yes
terday when District and Congress
sional leaders confirmed reports
that the District real estate tax
rate would have to be raised to
meet the revenue need, should there
be no new tax measure enacted.
District Assessor Edward A. Dent
told reporters it would be necessary
to lump the real estate tax rate
from 50 to $238 per 500 valuation
to pring IN the S6OO0,O00 minimum
which otherwise might flow in from
the sales tax.
The House Appropriations Com
mittee. in laying before the House
an unbalance city budget bill, had
no intention of forcing sharp rise
in the real estate tax rate. officials
explained. Chairman Horan of its
District Subcommittee, in fact, has
been Waging a campaign for sales
tax instead.
Deficit Of S6,OOO.OOO.
The District supply bill. as 1t
went to the House, poses a deficit of
less than S6,000000. In
fact assuming the adoption OF a
sales tax that would bring in S6,000,- F.
600 in the new fiscal year, there is
en- anticipated surplus on June 30
of next year of $l.50O,000. But. in
keeping with the budget experience,
81 100000 of this must be reserved
for contingencies and deficiency ap-
propriations developing in the year
beginning this July /.
Furthermore, a part OF the bal
snce that would be achieved by
adoption of a sales tax would be
upon use of S2.456,0OO of
the wartime public works invest
ment fund. the use Of 81 900 900 of
surplus from the l948 fiscal year and
appropriations amounting
to more than Sl87 600.

Young Judaean Leaders
Urged To Cling
To Ideals

Over fifty Leaders of Young
Judaean Clubs from the Southern
Region of Young Judaea attended
a Leadership Institute held in
Jacksonville and sponsored jointly
by the Southern Zionist Youth
Commission and the Jacksonville
Zionist Youth Commission. The
sessions were under the super
vision of Herman Papkin, regional
Zionist Youth Director, and ar
rangements were made by Mrs.
Nat F. Cohen and Mrs. Perry Kan
tor of the Jacksonville Zionist
Youth Commission.
The Institute was opened Friday
night with a special service in the
Jacksonville Jewish Center. Miss
Selma Bandrimer, representative
of the Joint Distribution Commit
tee Youth Division, delivered an
address from the pulpit in which
she drew a picture of the con-
dition of the D. P.'s in Europe
and the work that is being done
to condition them for life in Pal
estine and America by the j. D. c.
She spoke in length of the cour-
ageous spirit of the Displaced
Persons and of the ability to gov
ern themselves democratically.
She spoke in glowing terms of
their determination to educate
themselves and their children. She
also told of their training in the
D. P. Camp for life in Palestine
and their joy in preparing to live
on the land.
Miss Bendrimmer attended other
sessions of the conferences at
which time she brought pictures
of the condition of the young peo-
pie of Europe and contrasted it
with the situation in America and
Palestine.

Regional z. o. A. President S. P:
Benamy of Atlanta set the tone OF
the meeting when he declared that
no stone would be left unturned
in the struggle to bring the United
States in line with it's traditional

atoms and to bring about a re-
versal of it's position and return to-

Benamy declared. eve have out

QUESTION and the Nazis. We shall
outlive political complications
which are designed to interfere
with the attainment of the goal
towards which we shall unwaver-
ingly strive and which, with the
help of the Almighty, we shall
surely reach"
Principal speakers at the ses-
sions were Rabbi Irving Lehman
of the Miami Beach Jewish Com
Center; Abe Goodman, ma
tional 2. o. A.. vice-president; Nor
timer May, national vice-chairman
of the z. o. A. Administrative
Committee; I. r. Goodman, men,
Der of the 2. o. A. Executive, and
Manuel Posy, director of the Amer
lean Zionist Fund. All of them
stressed the point that there is no
reason for a spirit of defeatism
and that the will of American
Zionists, coupled with the determ-
nation of the already existing de
fecto Jewish State in Palestine,
are the best guarantees that there
will be no scuttling of progress on
the road to final victory. About
aid was pledged to the United
Jewish Appeal and a membership
goal of 5000 was adopted for
1913. Appropriate resolutions on
the subject of the current political
crisis were addressed to the Amer
lean government and the Jewish
Agency for Palestine in Jerusalem.
The name of Ari Lashner, Haga-
nah hero whose family is resident
in the South, was inscribed by
the delegates in the Hefer-Ha-

killed by an Arab sniper while
mending a fence at his home.

II. s. PREPARED TO SEND
TROOPS TO PALESTINE
WASHINGTON

TROOPS TO PALESTINE
WASHINGTON
Denials to the contrary, the
limited States is trying to induce
Great Britain to maintain troops
IN Palestine after May Is, when
the Mandate ends.
The uproar over the American
PROPOSAL of trusteeship for Pales-
tine caused intense re-calculating
in Washington. Complaints pour
ed into the White House and to
members Of the Cabinet that the
change of policy had occurred
without preparing the public. This
objection was voiced quite apart
from protests at the nature of the
change. When, later, President
Truman let it be known that par
tition was not ruled out for the
future, it carried less weight than
intended, because of the confusion
and bitterness already prevailing.
Policy now being evolved is to
soft-pedal the trusteeship plan,
and to take. action which will in
dictate that partition stands.
AS a step in this d:"2c"ion the
United States is reliably said to
be prepared to send troops to Pal
estine, as part of United Nations
force to include also British and
French troops. international law
experts here have come up with
a theory based on the League of
Nations. They point out that
under the provisions of the League,
mandatory powers were Great
Britain, the United States. France
and Japan. Excluding Japan, the
experts argue, the three powers
inherit the right to carry out en-
forcement duties for the United
Nations. An American-British-
French force, U. N.-supervised,
could, under this Interpretation,
be formed to enforce partition.
British circles here insist that,
despite the ''arm-twisting afoot,"
they have not changed one iota,
and are determined to get out of
Palestine by May Is. Between
now and then, changes may be ex-
pected.
The sponsors of legislation for
entrance of displaced persons to
the U. S. continue to tread eau
tiously.
Advocates in the House of such
legislation are standing behind the
measure prepared by Representa-
i've Frank Fellows (R) of Maine.
he is chairman of the House Ju-
Gclary subcommittee dealing with
DP measures, which last year held
tne lengthy hearings on the STRAIT
Ton Bill. The Fellows Bill was
discussed in detail last week in
'nls column. Primarily, it pro-
posed to admit 100000 DPS over
" C"o-year period, mortgaging flu
lure immigration quotas to do it.
Except for this provision, the Eel
lows measure is believed to be
eiearly preferable to the Wiley
Dill introduced in the Senate.
rms would admit 100000 DPS
curing two years up to 1850.

The middle income" of the A.
900 900 families in the United States
was $2,e2o last year, up $500 from
l946.
The Federal Reserve Board, re.
porting this today, said one half ot

The 1920 rise in the middle in

this year, was much sleeper thar

1916.
Approximately So per cent, or 2s,-
$50 900 families had joint income ol
$4,000 or more last year. In the
mid -l93Os, fewer than 6,600.000 fam.
lilies had income at that level-but
dollar bought more then.
For 81 out of each 100 families
income was above 5000 last year
with eight of that group getting
over $500 a year.
Not everybody was in the. chips
however. OF each 100 families, /:
had incomes under 81 900 and an.
other 1S got between Isl 900 ane
$4,000.
And not every one whose income
increased was pleased with the wa!
things were going, although roughl!

farmers on a cash basis was only

that farmers are different from

they produce,
