AFL Urges Excess
Profits Tax To
Raise S6 Billion

Washington (LPA)-The Amer
ican Federation of Labor thinks
Congress should enact an excess
profits tax designed to raise up to
so percent more revenue a year
than the tax proposed by the Ad-
ministration.
In an appearance before the
House Ways & Means Committee
Nov. II, Arthur A. Elder, AFL tax
consultant, asked for an excess
profits tax to raise at least So or
Sc billion. The Administration had
requested only S5 billion.
Otherwise, AFL proposals were
substantially in line with Admins
tration recommendations presented
by Secretary of the Treasury Sny-
der Nov. Is. However, Elder indi-
Gated that the AFL was squarely
behind Truman in wanting the tax
to be retroactive to July l, 1850, a
Presidential request that Cabinet
officer Snyder flatly declined to
support.
Elder backed Administration pro-
posalS that excess profit taxes be
imposed on earning above average
earnings in a selected base period
or upon earnings above a given
of invested capital. He
accepted the base period suggest
ed by Snyder.
Under the Administration form

WHITE KILLER

He was great with kids but death on dogs.

some futile argument, the Stephen
Rennells bought Whitley for $lOO
from the Fairport Kennels. Then
they took him home.
Whitley, of course, was only his
nickname. He had been billed in
corner of dogdom as The White
Flash. but Margie and Steve didn't
guess this. They had Whitey's
phony pedigree but they knew
nothing else about him. He was
pure white all over, with pink
ewes. He was what some circles
call a pit dog. He had heavy
shoulders and a long Furnishing
law. He had been trained to kill
any other dog that would stand
up to him.
At the dog shows, which Whitley
never attended. he would have
been listed, and correctly, as a
bull terrier perhaps the tough

took him out to walk. The Rem

now and then Margie would
glance enviously at the big estate
adjoining their property, with
fields, and broad meadows, and
woods where a dog could run.

that many very capable marshals

Those making the charges Of
political pressure are outsiders
who made extremely high grades
on the exam. Among them are a
number of veterans with 10-point
preference. Some Of these men
made perfect score Of 100 which,
together with their 10 point

With the scheduling Of a new

To Kill Perjury Case
Or Transfer Trial

Attorneys for Harold r. Chris
tof1el, Milwaukee labor leader, to-
day moved in District Court here
to dismiss the perjury indictment
against him and. failing that, to
have the impending retrial trans
ferred to Wisconsin on the claim
that "fair and impartial" trial
could not be obtained in the Dis
trict.
Attorney O. John Rogge mailed
four motions to the court here.
Should his motion to dismiss the
indictment be denied. Mr.. Rogge
asks the court to consider con-
tinuing the trial from January is
to March 16 and authorize issu-
ance of subpoenas of all records
on the attendance of the nine
members of the House Labor Com
mittee before which Christoffel
allegedly committed perjury in
February, 1947.
Christoffel was convicted in
District Court early in 1948 on
charge that he perjured himself
before the House Labor Commit
tee investigating Communist
activities. That verdict subse-
quently was reversed last year by
the Supreme Court, which ruled
that the prosecution failed to
show that a quorum of the COM
mittee was present when the
alleged perjury was committed.
The quorum question is the basis
of the present motion to dismiss
the indictment. under which
Christoffel faces a second trial.
In asking the court to authorize
subpoenas should the trial pro-
ceed as scheduled, Mr.. Rogge
specified that he wants to look
at the attendance record Of each
Of the nine members of the Labor
Committee of the 1947 sessions of
the House and of the COMMITTEES.
