AS the House debate continued
the Senate Finance Committee
called a second round of hearings
on the tax bill amid predictions
that the Senate, too, probably will
pass the measure before Christ
mas.
The Senate hearings began yes
terday with Secretary of the
Treasury Snyder giving a gloomy
picture of vastly accelerated Gov
ernment spending for defense and
further substantial increases in
taxes, on individuals as well as
corporations, next year.
Snyder Urges Higher Yield.
Mr.. Snyder appealed to the
Senate group to increase the yield
of the tax bill to the 81 billion goal
set by President Truman and sug-
gested revision of the House
measure to eliminate what he de-
scribed as provisions for prefer
entail treatment of some indus
tries.
The House bill calls for IS
per cent tax on corporation
earnings above IS per cent of the
normal for the average of its best
three years in the 1946-194s
period.
The Republicans have agreed
on a milder excess profits levy
coupled with an increase from 45
TO so per cent in normal cor
porate income and surtax. They
would allow a business full credit
on normal earnings in the base
period as against the IS per cent
in the House bill and a IS pei
cent credit being urged by the
administration.
Opponents of the House bill
contend it is inflationary ane
would stifle business at a time
when expanding production il
needed in the defense program.

fact that judges often are at va

cutting officials, Mr.. Laskey said
that the enforcement conference
comprised Of representatives of

Your attitude creates a hos

This attitude makes 1t impos-

"The Juvenile Court is being

Winners in Election,
Move TO Return King
Restoration Predicted
By July !, but Opposition
Expresses Doubts
BY The Associated Press

BRUSSELS, Belgium, June 5
The Social Christian Party, VIC
torious in yesterdays parlia-
mentary elections, embarked to-
day on a program to bring exiled
King Leopold III back to the
throne. Enthusiastic party lead
ers predicted this will be ac-
complished by July / but leaders
of the anti-Leopold opposition
were not so sure.
The Social Christians, pre-
dominantly a Catholic party, won
108 seats in the lower house
against 104 for the combined anti
Leopold forces Of Socialists, Lib
erals and Communists. Ministry
of the Interior officials said the
Social Christians are sure to get
control Of the Senate, too. BY
law, only a majority of both
houses sitting in joint session can
end the regency of Prince Charles,
Leopold's brother.
Social Christians Get "a Seats.
In yesterdays balloting the So
cial Christians won 81 of the LOG
Senate seats at stake. Ministry OF
interior officials said the party
would get minimum of Is of the
As seats which will be chosen by
provincial councillors and at least
II of the seats which the Senators
fill themselves. This would give
pro-Leopold partisans at least 9C
of the Senate's ITS seats, or 19a
votes to 189 in a joint session.
| Social Christian strategy calls
for formation of a government
which can win a vote of conf
dence in both houses when they
convene June 20. Then the Sen
ate and House would be sum-
moned into joint session to enc
the regency and return Leopold te
the throne.
General Strike Is Threat.
But the ardently anti-Leopole
Socialist Party. which also made
gains in the election, could throw
a monkey wrench in the planning
by calling general strikes and thus
creating general unrest. The So.
cialists threatened prior to the
election to follow such a course il
Leopold is called back. The party's
leaders were meeting today tc
consider a course of action in the
