SHUTTLE
IS MADE
Compromise Reached Be
tween House Senate
Breaking Deadlock

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 - Up -
A compromise s4,700. 100000 tax
boosting bill was approved by a
Senate-House conference committee.
This opened the way for Congress
to send the bill to President Truman
by Friday highland for Congress
to recess this weekend until after
the November elections.
The conferees approved the COM
promise by breaking a deadlock
through this action:
l. They threw out a 10 percent
withholding levy on corporation
dividends, which they had approved
only yesterday. This was intended
to collect about $4,000, 900 a year
from persons who fail to pay in
come taxes on dividends they re-
ceive.
2. They eliminated a controversial
provision in the bill, inserted by the
Senate, dealing with the taxation
of family business partnerships.
3. Did an about-face on another
issue dealing with the taxation of
life insurance companies. Today the
conferees agreed that the companies
should be taxed 1922 ,00O. 900 on their
investment income, for the years
1949 and 1850 Yesterday they had
said the tax should be $176,000, 900
dating back to cover 1948, 1949 and
1850.
4. Knocked out Senate bill pro-
vision that would have provided
capital gains tax treatment. instead
of higher personal income tax
rates, to income of persons selling
or leasing oil rights. This had been
one of the principal items in dispute.
No change was made in the most
important provisions Of the measure,
providing for increase of almost
s., 900 ,00O. 900 a year in personal in
come taxes. and $500, 900, 900 year
additional taxes for corporations.

WASHINGTON-When George

ers first tried to make go of this
nation against the British, not
many of them knew much about
Korea. Nor did they dream that
some day their descendants would
be fighting Communism all the
way from Indo- China to Italy.
However, some of the ideas which
the founding fathers Matched are
directly applicable to Korea, 1ndo-
China, and the rest of the world
today. .
Roy Norr, the publicist who made
the American Tobacco Company

decided to undermine them with
propaganda. Only Washington used
more high-brow words than pro

of disaffection and desertion."
Anyway, Washington appointed
a committee of propaganda experts,
including the three top men in the
would-be nation-Thomas Jefferson
John Adams, and Benjamin Frank

by Congress offered every Hessian

Allied airmen using Superforts
