Truman Veto Stand
On Excise Tax Cuts
Reported Reaffirmed
by he Assoeiefsd press

A key member Of the House
Ways and Means Committee said
yesterday President Truman has
again served notice he will veto
any cut In excise taxes which
brings a net loss In Federal reve-
nue..
The committee voted Friday TO
stand fast on excise tax cuts 1t
had previously approved tenta-
lively. They would total an esti-
mated SLOTS million year-more
than twice the $655 million limit
which Mr.. Truman proposed.
It has done little about making
up this potential revenue loss in
other ways. Committee staff ex-
perts estimate that the bill. In its
present form. would result in a
revenue loss of about $3.50 million
a year.
When Mr.. Truman submitted his
tax recommendations to Congress
early in the year. he suggested
modest cuts In excise taxes-the
levies on such things as furs. jew
elry. luggage, toilet preparations.
admissions and other items.
But he told Congress bluntly
that the Government cannot af-
ford to cut its net revenue. and
he said the legislators must vote
new or increased levies elsewhere
to make up the loss.
A top member of the House
committee, who asked that he not
be named. told newsmen Mr.. Tru.
man reiterated this view in a mes
sage relayed by Administration
leaders who called at the White
House recently.
This committee member said
the situation is that the bill will
be vetoed unless the committee
votes-and Congress approves
higher corporation taxes. There
has been no serious talk of in
creasing individual income taxes
The President had recommended
that the corporation income tax
rate be hiked from SO to AZ per
cent-a boost which Treasury ex-
perts estimate would bring in an
additional $3.50 million year.

On Possible Unity Of
East and West Reich
BY she Assseiossd Press

CLEVELAND. June 3.-The
Cleveland Plain Dealer tonight
quoted the United States High
Commissioner for Germany as
saying he does not exclude the
possibility of coalition govern
ment" between East German Com
munists and West Germans.
The paper carried an exclusive
interview with John j. McCloy in
Frankfurt, Germany. 1t was writ
ten by John p. Leacacos. the pa
per's European correspondent.
Mr.. McCloy said the Western
Allies are trying to build up West
Germany as much as possible for
unification bargaining with the
Russian-controlled East sector.
Unification Talks Possible.
Mr.. Leacacos further quoted the
commissioner as saying he had
asked West German government
and political leaders to make
contacts" with East German poll
| ticians and hammer away" at
practical terms for ''the right law
for free elections" in all Germany.
Mr.. McCloy said "unif1cation
talks might take place this year.
but "tfe Russians are fearful Of
letting the East Germans talk
| freely to West Germans"
Discussing the chances of an
all German coalition of non-Com-
munists and Communists. Mr.. Nc
Cloy said:
1T depends on what kind Of
coalition 1t is. We have to watch
out for their old tricks, like the
Communists taking over the Min
istry of Interior and Police"
Won't Join Blocks.
The commissioner declared the
coalition might be practicable If
the Communists are confined to
economic ministries.
| The dispatch further quoted
Mr.. McCloy as saying he has mo
doubt a strong liberal state in
West Germany will pull and draw
East Germany to it by sheer pre-
ponderance."
But he added he does not think
Germany must join either OF the
two blocs" of the world today.
East Germany may be forced
to be satellite of Russia. but ''it
is a fantastic concept to think the
United States wants Germany as
a satellite" he said. 1--WE are try

Mr.. Van Beuren's appearance

May Not Present Witnesses.
"As you know, I have over o
score of witnesses who I had hoped
could be presented to your COM

foolhardy for me to submit them
to the type of horseplay and abuse
to which my witnesses have been
subjected in the past. Unless
you give the minority members OF
the committee the right to SUBJ
poena witnesses and develop the
facts through their counsel with
out having them and their en-
ployers previously heckled and
badgered by your whitewash
bucket brigade, I shall be forced
to the conclusion that it is worse
than hopeless to attempt to force
proof upon your committee.
"Mr. Tydings. you, Mr.. Lucas,
Mr.. Mcmahon, the administration
and the State Departments press
corps underestimate the intelli-
gence of the American people.
You and Senators Lucas and
Mcmahon backed by all of the
power of Washington bureaucracy
and its combined highly paid press
staff. may convince me of the
hopelessness of the further force
feeding of your committee with
distaSteful proof of Communism
in the State Department. How
ever. you and the administration
can rest assured that no matter
how much you try to obStruct the
task of exposing people in the
Government dangerous to this
country, you shall not succeed. ]
assure you that all the power OF
the administration won't stop this
fight.

No plans for the annual Gar den Club Show have been made this year because of the lateness of the growing season and the poor condition of the local gardens.
 The annual show is usually held in September at the Com- munity- Center and in past years has attracted large crowds.
 Competition between vege- table growers was keen and the flower show competition was traditionally close during the past four years.
 The Kodiak Garden Club has sponsored the event in the past. Late this week, one of the members said, We haven't even discussed it. The gardens are so poor it isn't worth our time."
