These planning controls pro-

strengthened by providing for

would be provided further through

|Chances for PASSAGE
OF Some Tax Measure
Believed Improved
BY the Associated Press

Prospects for passage OF some
kind of tax bill at this session
of Congress were looking up today
as the House Ways and Means
Committee drove ahead at the te-
dious job of drafting bill.
AS the tax-framing group stuck
to it's target of having bill ready
by Friday, House Republican lead
ers called a strategy meeting to
consider what they should do
about it.
And Chairman George Of the
Senate Finance Committee an
nounced plans for a meeting OF
his committee later this week to
start work on a tax bill.
George Hopes for Passage.
While Senator George would
make no predictions about what
the Senate would do, he said yes
terday he hoped an excess-profits
tax bill would be passed before
Christmas.
Earlier indications were that the
House would pass a bill only to
have it die in Senate pigeonhole.
Both the House and Senate Tax
Committees are under a mandate
from Congress to try to get an
excess-profits hax bill ready for
consideration during the present
session of Congress, which goes
out of business on January and
which probably will adjourn be-
fore then.
The administration wants an
excess profits tax bill that would
raise 81 billion yearly in new rev.
enue to help meet rising costs of
defense. It proposes to tax at
rs per cent rate all corporate in
come in excess of rs per cent of
the 1946-1949 average. The first
Is per cent of earnings would be
subject to the present maximum
corporation income tax of IS
per cent.
The House Republican Policy
Committee. headed by Represen-
tative Martin of Massachusetts,
is expected eventually to support
counter-proposal to boost cor
porate income levies and possibly
impose additional excise. or sales,
taxes. Business SpokeSmen have
advocated such substitute.
Mr.. Martin indicated his COM
mittee didn't expect to reach a
definite decision on tax stand
at today's session. The group was
reported interested primarily in
receiving the views of Republican
members of the Ways and Means
Committee.
Relief Formula Planned.
The Ways and Means Com
mittee tentatively agreed yester-
day to give special consideration
to new and growing corporations
under a proposed vcess profits
tax bill.
It decided to provide relief
formula to benefit so-called
hardship cases" which would be
adversely affected by an excess
profits levy.
The committee also agreed to a
schedule prescribing the rate of
earnings to be allowed corpora
tions which pay their excess
profits tax on an invested capital
rather than an average earnings
basis. The schedule ranges from
IL per cent on capital under SIS
million to 7 per cent on capital
over $125 million.

Speaking for the Republican

that while the minority is will

and the statehood bills. he wanted
to point out that it would be diff
cult to get final action on such

He said if the tax bill goes over

Eastern States Fight
To Gel Back on Feet
After Storm Siege
BY the Assoeiaied Press

Storm swept Eastern States,
reeling from devastating blows
from weather's elements, struggled
today to get business and produc-
ton back to normal.
The herculean job was being
waged by thousands. They fought
to clear areas of snow from the
weekend storm which struck with
paralyzing fury over wide parts of
% Eastern States.
The death toll from the winds,
blizzards and cold mounted, with
278 fatalities in the torm-stricken
region. Damage to property
mounted to astronomical figures
estimated in the hundreds Of mil
lions of dollars.
Hardship Is Great.
There was much human misery
and great hardship. Thousands
of homes remained without heat;
others were without electricity and
telephones. Communities were
isolated. Schools remained closed
in many snowbound areas.
The Weather Bureau had a mild
note of cher. The intense storm,
1t reported, was almost stationary
in the vicinity of Lake Huron and
was dying-very slowly. Some
light snow fell over parts of the
Middle Atlantic States and around
the Great Lakes area. There were
furries in Kentucky and Tennes-
see.
But temperatures moderated in
some areas and no below-Zero cold
was reported over the snow belt.
However, they were below normal
under freezing-in some areas.
Fight on Snow Continues.
Ohio and Pennsylvania-two of
the States hardest hit by the snow
and wind storm-continued their
fight to remove the mountainous
piles of snow.
Ohio, with the highest death toll
-55-was slowly but surely dig
ging out from the heavy falls
which had buried most of the
State. Most of the main highways
except some In the southeastern
section-were open but traffic |
moved slowly. Thousands of cars
remained stranded and some mo-
torists were marooned in farm
houses and villages.
Hundreds of business and in
dustrial firms in the two States
called employees back to work and
expected to be back to near normal
operations by tomorrow.
Millions in Wind Damage.
Snow blanketed cities and towns
with UP to IS inches west of the
Allegheny Mountain range-with
% inches on the ground in Pitts
burgh. In Eastern Pennsylvania
the snow was confined to the
mountain regions, but winds rang
ing up to 10 miles an hour and
heavy rains caused : millions of
dollars worth of damage.
Schools and colleges in Pitts
burgh still were closed. So were
the banks and the courts. Mayor
David l.. Lawrence urged citizens
to organize block parties" to help
clear the snow in the steel city
OF is million.
The big United States Steel
Corp. was among the big indus
tries planning to resume opera
tions. 1t was forced to close by
the storm, making about $4,000
workers idle.
Travel still is far from normal
In Pittsburgh as only 20 per cent
of the city's trolleys are operating.
Some are on partial service.

AS to diplomatic and interna-

McGrath Defines Curbs.
For the first time, the new reg

former membership in the Com

to United States admission for the
alien private citizen. The law also
bars present or former members
of "other totalitarian parties" but
Attorney General McGrath has
ruled that nominal membership
in Nazi. Fascist or Spanish Falan-
gist groups will not prevent tenn
porary entries.
He has defined nominal mem
bership as meaning an affiliation
before 16 years of age, or a join
ing for reasons of necessity, such
as the obtaining of ration cards.
To date there is no such NOM
inal" exemption for Communists.
Nor is any Justice Department ex-
emption provided for aliens bent
on subversive missions.
The regulations also end the
Attorney Generals previous dis
cretionary authority to re-admit
for permanent residence an alien
who has had forbidden applica-
ton but who has had seven years
residence in this country.
Alien Census Established.
The rules establish an annual
census" of all resident aliens in
the country and set the basis for a
previously announced plan for re-
examination of some 10000 foreign
students in the United States as
their one-year residence permits
expire.
AS the rules became effective,
other anti-subversive moves raised
a shipping strike threat and an
