STRANGE OBJECTS"
 ARE SEEN

VICTORIA, B.C., Dec. 15-tR- What with Strange objects" and mysterious high-speed airplanes' cluttering up the sky over the Straits of Juan de Fuca it's getting so a respectable aircraft won't be able to find a place to fly in that area.
 Latest strange object" reports comes from the First Officer aboard the Chinook, the Seattle to Vic toria car ferry, and is vouched for ty the Quartermaster and lookout.
 Yesterday they saw a bright light in the sky moving towards Victoria at about 2,000 feet"
 Tt was moving from side to side and up and down much too sharply to be a plane" the officer said.
 Last Saturday a high speed mystery plane was spotted leaving vapor trail over the Straits.
 The latest object was too cratic to follow with binoculars and it was too dark to see any shape"
 Tt came within a mile of the ship and then spiralled swiftly up- wards through the overcast"

EXCISE TAX REPEAL Up,| SAYS TRUMAN
Wants to Balance Budget, But Won't f Say If Will
 Ask Tax Increase
By ERNEST B. vACCARO

KEY WEST, Fla. Dec. 15-tR- President Truman said today that Treasury and Congressional staff experts are making studies to de- termine whether wartime excise taxes can be repealed.
 In a surprise vacation news con- ference, the President declined to say whether he will ask new taxes of Congress.
 However, he said it was always his aim to balance the budget.
 Reminded that he had told a news conference in washington re- gently that he knew of no way to wipe out deficit other than by .'ising taxes, he was asked if he still lelt that way.
 He said the whole matter was under consideration by Treasury committee of experts and by staff experts for the House Ways and Means Committee. He said they were working harmoniously.
 SUDDEN PRESS CONFAB
 Walking into the press room on the Navy's bachelor officers quar- ters here, the President suddenly went into a press conference on which he gave no advance warn ing. Some of the reporters were in their pajamas.
 A recent statement by Secretary Of Commerce Sawyer suggesting elimination of wartime excise taxes to aid business was called to his attention. Asked if he agreed with Sawyer's proposals. he said the question was under consideration cy the experts.
 The matter will be covered in the budget message, he said.
 Budget Director Frank Pace said last week he saw no way to balance the 1851 fiscal year budget without new taxes.
 Did the President plan to ask new taxes?
 That will have to be covered in the budget message that goes to Congress in January, he replied.
 Would the budget be balanced?s
 It has always been his aim to have a balanced budget, MT. Tru- man said.
