Senator George Opposes
New Excess Profits Tax

By the Associotsd Press

VIENNA, Ga. Nov Ex-senator
Walter F. George, who will return
to the craftsmanship of the Senate
Finance Committee, said today an
excess profits tax would lead Ito
destruction of business
He said in an interview that he
saw mo sense" in re-enactment OF
such a tax and if it becomes neces-
sary to increase revenue, he will
favor an increase in the normal
corporation rate.
There is little hope for further
income tax cut during l949. due TO
increased aid to Western Europe and
proposed additional funds for ma
tional defense.
Senator George served as chair
man of the Finance Committee from
1910 to l947 when Republicans took
over control of Congress. The Dem
acratic majority in the new Congress!
will return him to that post.

Stock Market Uneven
But Fractional Gains
Appear in Majority
ey the Assoeioisd Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 18.-Stock
prices leaned ahead today but
neither buying nor selling was on
an aggressive scale.
The market was far from one
sided. A fair number of issues
slipped into minus territory while
numerous others held unchanged
Gains of fractions to around a point,
though, were in the majority.
Volume dropped below recent
levels. Dealings this week have run
around 100000 shares for the full
day.
Investors focused their attention
on the technical side of the market,
and such operations as tax selling
and switching accounted for good
part of the activity Favorable
