BALTIMORE, Feb. Z. - Two
truck drivers have been sentenced
to serve five days in Jail for op-
Grating overloaded vehicles on the
Observation-Disclosures boulevard.
These are believed to be the
first cases in which Maryland has
resorted to jail terms to enforce
its load limit regulations. Both
trucks were more than seven tons
overweight, police reported.
The second conviction came to-
day. Henry Lee Stanley, driver
for the Waite Lumber Co., Thorn
burg, Va, was picked up by
troopers at a weighing station set
up at the Waterloo State police
barracks.
Magistrate j. Edwin Haslup i'm
posed the jail term and Mr.. STAN

was set at $500.

Its my personal opinion that
if John L. Lewis and his lieuten-

day, they could buy us miners a
lot of bread" Mr.. Rybarski de-
clared.
They could take their pay and
spend it on food and distribute it.
They wouldn't go hungry. And
why couldn't they sacrifice their
pay for a few days?

Republican Conference of the
House approved the document
first, at a morning session yester-
day.
The Republican Conference of
the Senate. however, ran into a
long debate over changes proposed
by Senator Lodge of Massachu-
setts and a number of others. It
did not conclude it's work and
finally adopt the declaration until
$3.50 pm. BY that time, the Ma

Mayf1ower Hotel, had acted favor
ably on the document.
Lodge Disappointed.
Both Senator Taft of Ohio.
chairman of the Senate Republi-
can Policy Committee, and Rep
resentative Martin of Massachu-
sets, chairman of the House
committee, expressed hearty ap-
proval OF the declaration. Senator
Lodge, however. who has been a
leader OF the liberal wing of the
Senate Republicans, said the dec
laration was disappointment in
several ways"
Senator Lodge had proposed
that the section on civil rights be
rewritten to demand a fight for
civil rights legislation at the pres
ent session of Congress, with Re-
publicans pledging themselves to
break any fllibuster by Southern
Democrats.
He also wished to rewrite
the section on labor legislation to
omit the name of the Taft-Hartley
Labor Act, although using Ian
guage which virtually supported
the principles of that law. He was
defeated in this move, on a voice
vote, although several of his COL
leagues voted with him. The
declaration squarely supports the
Taft Hartley Act, although it
recommends its amendment and
denounces the Truman Admins
stration for preventing the enact
ment OF perfecting amendments.
Good Platform, Says Wherry.
Senate Minority Leader Wherry
commented: Altogether, it is a
good platform and one on which
the Republican Party can go for
ward to victory in the best inter-
ests of our country. for durable
peace and solid prosperity"
The new document protests that
the Truman administration has
handled foreign relations without
consulting the Republicans in
many instances.
I'VE oppose secret commitments,
and we denounce the refusal of
the administration to furnish ac-
curate and adequate information
to the Congress it says. It then
asks for consultation between the
Chief Executive and members of
both the Republican and Demo-
cratic Parties in Congress "in the

united American foreign policy"

Treasury Seeks Ban
On Tax Loopho|e Use
OF 'Co|Iapsib|e' Firms
House Committee Given
Examples in Film and
Building Industries
Pv A NUo~r,
By J. A. O'Leory

The Treasury asked Congress
today to ban the formation of
so-called "collapsible" corporations
for the purpose of paying a small
capital gains tax in lieu of much
higher income taxes.
This is one of II loopholes by
which the administration hopes to
raise s500,00o, 900 additional from
business operations to offset an
ticipated cuts in wartime excise
taxes. ~
Thomas j. Lynch, Treasury
general counsel, told the House
Ways and Means Committee the
Internal Revenue Bureau is now
looking into more than 100 cases
of suspected "collapsible" corpora
tions. He suggested this technique
may be held to be a sham" even
under present law. He asked the
committee, however, to tighten the
law to make certain that this tax
avoidance technique will not be
used to advantage in the future" +"
The Treasury lawyer testified
the "collapsible" corporation plan
has been used in the making of
motion pictures and to some ex-
tent in the building .construc-
ton field. The name is derived
from the Governments claim that
such corporations are liquidated
before the business venture begins
to bring in returns.
Cites Film Corporation. .
To illustrate. Mr.. Lynch de-
scribed an unnamed motion-pic-
ture corporation which was or
ganized by an independent
producer in California for the sole
purpose of producing one motion
picture"
"All the capital stock of the
corporation 1,750 shares having
a par value of $1,75O) was issued
to the producer who held it joint
ly with his wife as community
property" Mr.. Lynch testified.

Chiefs of Staff visit to Japan.
Chairman Vinsorl of the commit
tee said he would be called to give
expert" testimony on the
Mighty Mo.
The decision to call the admiral
came after Mr.. Vinson introduced
a resolution stating that it was
"the sense of the committee" that
the Navy should place the As, ,000-
ton Missouri in mothballs and op-
crate a large aircraft carrier in
her stead.
Representative Cole, Repub-
lican, of New York, objected on
the grounds that he was not quail
flied to vote on such resolution
until he had heard some expert
opinion" on the subject.
The Missouri, which is now in a
Norfolk (Va0 drydock, after be-
ing stuck on a Hampton Roads
mudbank for Is days, may be
outmoded in wartime, but she is
still useful for training purposes,
Representative Cole commented
The Navy has maintained off,
cially that operation of the Mis-
souri, was necessary to train
crews so that they would know
how to operate a battleship ir
wartime. However, there have
been some reports in the past
that the department preferred tc
place the battleship in the re-
serve fleet, but that such a plan
had been blocked at the White
House.
Chairman Vinson said his pro-
posal would be left over until the
committee could hear from Ad-
mira1 Sherman.
He commented that he didn I
know what effect" his resolution
might have on Pentagon officials,
but he added that he did know
that the battleship today was
not as promising" as formerly
while aviation was most important
to the national defense.
Since money "is short" as far
as the Navy is concerned, he said
he felt that the Sc, 700, 900 required
to operate the Mighty Mo annu-
ally could be used to better pur-
poses by operating a carrier.
Representative Brooks, Demo-
crat, of Louisiana. said he felt the
committee also might be "inter-
ested" in knowing just how it
was that the Nations only active
dreadnaught was run aground
January II. But Mr.. Vinson said
they would have to await the
finding of a court of inquiry now
sitting at Norfolk.

Undecided on Subpoenas.
Mr.. Cole told a news confer
ence the board members would
spend this afternoon and tonight
interviewing witnesses who, he
said, would have to remain
"anonymouse.
He added that the board had not
decided whether it would obtain
District Court subpoenas in the
event any witnesses refuse to ap-
pear at the hearing. Two years
ago it took a court order to force
Mr.. Lewis to testify before a SIM
liar Taft-Hartley Act board.
The board chairman also re-
fused to say whether they will ask
the miners to end their two-day
nearly complete strike or whether
they will suggest a resumption of
contract bargaining between the
operators and the UNIV.
I'VE have ruled out nothing in
our approach to this matter" Mr..
Cole said. 1--WE don't know at this
time precisely what course we will
take" AS the board met for the
first time, the shortage of coal
caused by the seven-month con-
tract controversy in the industry
threatened further to cripple the
Nations railroads and industry
generally.
Lewis Silent Since Walkout,
Mr.. Lewis has said not a word
since 10000 of his United Mine
Workers walked of the job yester-
day. forcing Mr.. Truman to in
woke the Taft-Hartley Act.
But in the coal fields his miners
were saying plenty. They made 1t
clear they have no intention of
resuming work now and many de-
clared a court injunction would
not change their minds. Mr..
Lewis himself has grimly warned
his angry" men might defy the
Government.
The Association of American
Railroads estimated major roads
had an average coal reserve suf-
1cient to last just 14.8 days. Sup
plies were unevenly distributed
with some carriers near the fam
inc point.
One railroad was said to have
resorted to confiscation of coal
shipments in order to keep vital
cargoes moving. The New York
Central ordered cancellation of As
more passenger trains in New
York. probably after midnight to-

No New Cuts Likely Here.
