ported the Committee has voted to
eliminate the tax ON all admissions
to agricultural fairs, religious and
charitable entertainment, and public
entertainment, including night clubs.
Cuts i'm taxes ON travel, freight, tele-
phone and Geographic bills were
voted, as were reductions in the taxes
on medicinal alcohol, chewing tobacco,
and cheaper brands of cigarettes,
Tentative excise tax reductions voted
now total over billion dollars, or
$3.50 million more than suggested by
the President. The Committee may
be unable to find means of making up
the tax revenues lost, and the Presi-
dent has threatened to veto any reve-
nue. bill which fails to do so. In any
event, it will be August or later be-
fore the new tax cuts will go into
effect if at all.
The House Armed Services Com
mittcc last week voted to continue
the registration provisions of the
Sclrctivc Service Act after hearing
high military leaders declare world
conditions require it. Similar testi-
mony was given in 1913 in support Of
enacting the present draft law, under
which only 10000 men were actually
conscriptcd, only to be quickly dis
charged from service because the
Armed Forces were getting more
voluntary enlistments than needed
Under the new bill reported by the
Committee no one could actually
conscriptcd unless Congress author
ICES but registration Of young men
would continue for two years.
The Congress concluded Legislative
action last week ON one of its biggest
pork barrel" bills-thc $1.5 billion
Rivers and Harbors Bill. When the
measure left the House toward the
end of last years session, it carried
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1950-05-11

a total appropriation of about $1.15
billion. The Senate increased the
authorization over $500 Million and
then a conference committee cut the
increase down to $3.50 million, or to
total authorization of SIS billion.
However, the measure still called for
such heavy expenditures and con
tanned so much "pork" that the
economy bloc which included most
Republicans in the House, voted
against final approval Of the bill.
The President left Sunday on
ten-day swing through the northwest
sections of the Country. The trip by
special train is being made at
Government expense for the an
nounced purpose of defeating FEEDER
al dams in the States of Wyoming
and Washington. However, he will be
accompanied by full retinue of
political advisers, numerous whistle
stop speeches have been arranged
under the direction Of Democratic
Party leaders in the various States
visited. and Democratic candidates
will join the President for his public
appearances. The White House has
announced that the President will
make political" speech in Chicago
Monday night of next week, and the
Republican leadership has already
arranged for Senator Taft to reply
ON Tuesday night. Capitol news and
radio correspondents are poking con-
siderable fun at what they call the
Presidents "non-political whistle
stop tour of 1850" and are compar-
ing it to his campaign trip of 1913.
However, the taxpayers, who will foot
the bill for the Presidents trip, seem
ingly fail to see the humor i'm the
situation if the huge volume of
letters now reaching Congressional
offices protesting the trip is any cri-

ARE WOMEN
LAZIER NOWADAYS?

We don't really know but we don't
think so. We think they know a good
thing when they see it, that's all.
That's why so many women are turn
ing to electric cookery-not because
it saves you time, or because an cleo
trio range will cook your dinner while
you shop or relax or do something
else-not because electric ranges help
cut down on heat in your kitchen and
look SO smooth. No it's because of the
many other special features electric
ranges, roasters and cooking equip
ment offers-the many things they
do that no other method of cookery
does. It's because electric cookery is
the best, and every woman likes the
best for her family.

Fort Wayne Leading
|NbA Western Division
BY the Associated Press

The Fort Wayne Pistons Of the
National Basketball Association
today had clear claim to first place
in the Western Division, thanks
largely to young giant named
Larry Foust.
At the moment, the 22-year- old
200-pounder who stands 6 feet 9
appears a good bet for rookie of
the year honors. In Is games he
has fired home II field goals, 81
free throws and scored 1919 points.
Larry proved to be help from
an unexpected source for the
Pistons. He was a draft choice OF
Chicago, but was assigned to Fort
Wayne after the Stays dropped
out of the league.
| Braving stormy weather last
night, a crowd of $500 cheered the
Pistons to a 1910 victory over the
Indianapolis Olympians. Foust led
the scoring with % points and
helped his team to break a first
place tie with idle Tri-Cities.
At Boston, the Celtics edged the
New York Kniekerbockers in an
afternoon contest which went into
two overtime periods, $500. Bob
Donhsm's two foul shots decided
the issue and put. Boston in a
first-place tie with unscheduled
Philadelphia in the Eastern Divi-
sion.
The Minneapolis Lakers handed
the Baltimore Bullets their sew
enth straight setback, 85-71.

another week and Schnittker for
10 days. it is expected.
The Caps have a tough grind
this week. They play the Royals
again in Washington Wednesday
and Boston in Boston Thursday
and in Washington Saturday.
The Caps started off well before
4.641 customers last night. They
held at 21-17 lead after the first
period and increased it to 1922
in the second before the Mats got
hot and gained a 43-40 edge at
halftime. The Mats then went
ahead to stay.
Mckinney OFF the Beam.
Player-coach Bones Mckinney
missed two easy lay-ups when his
team was trailing by six points,
lost his temper and threw the ball
into the stands. A technical foul
was called.
Chick Halbert led the Caps in
scoring with II points, while Ace
Maughan had 13 and Don Often
