Three-Nafion Expedition
Finds Antarctic Landina

LONDON, Feb. 13 (by wireless)
(NANA) John Giaver, leader of
the joint Norwegian British =
Swedish Antarctic Expedition to
Queen Maud Land, in a dispatch
from the sealing ship Norsel Fri
day night, stated briefly:
1--WE have found landing
place II degrees minutes south,
II degrees west"
According to Prof. Sverdrup,
director of the Norwegian Polar
institute. the position of this
landing point is a very favorable
one. He adds that there are good
prospects of being able to make a
landing there every year.
Mountains 100 miles to the
southwest were seen in the back
ground of photographs taken there
in 1889 from an aircraft off the
German catapult ship Schwaben-
land, but they have never been
visited by man. They are, how
ever, well within reach of the
present, landing point by weasel
or sledge, Prof Sverdrug says,
So, too, are mountain ranges 300
miles southeast of the landing
point. The territory bordering the
coast in this area is completely
unexplored.

Mindszenfy Is Called
A Martyr by 0'BoyIe

The Most Rev.. Patrick A.
fO'Boyle. Archbishop of Washing
ton, declared yesterday that Jo-
seph Cardinal Mindszenty, i'm
prisoned Hungarian Catholic pre-
late. is serving as martyr in the
fight between atheism and Chris
tianity.
"One year ago this week a prince
Of the church. His Eminence Jo-
seph Cardinal Mihdszenty, was ar
rested by officials of a Hungarian
Communist junto," Archbishop
O'Boyle said. He was imprisoned
like common felon. He was sub
jected to every diabolical device
calculated to bend his will and
twist his mind for the sole pur-
pose of degrading the cardinal be-
fore his debased people. He was
the last barrier between the evil
usurpers and the degradation of
his nation"
Charging Cardinal Mindszenty' S
trial was "a mockery of justice, -
Archbishop O'Boyle declared
"those who love freedom and
loathe iniquity and injustice owe
him that debt of remembrance
and prayer for his liberation and
peace. No man can think of him
without remembering what liberty
is actually worth.
'The church will never make a
truce with evil" he declared.
Archbishop O'Boyle spoke at a
confirmation service for 384 men
and women in st. Matthew's Ca

Taxes Recommended
For Reduction Show
S% Drop in Receipts
By the Assoeioted Press

An 8 per cent drop was reported
yesterday in Federal tax receipts
during 1949 from the four retail
sales taxes that President Truman
has proposed for reductions. To-
tai United States revenues were
off about per cent.
The Internal Revenue said it
took in $425, ,518,349 last year
from the 20 per cent levies on
furs, jewelry, luggage and toilet
preparations $37,872,901 less
than the 1948 collections.
Tax receipts, which directly re-
feet the up or down movement
in sales volumes, declined on all
the retail levies except that on
toilet preparations, where cosmetic
sales have held up strongly.
Mr.. Truman recommended cut
ting all four levies to 10 per cent.
Collections Over $40 Billion.
Overall tax collections in 1949,
including $2,459, TOE, ,469 in social
security payroll taxes that are not
counted in Government budget
figures, totaled $40. SOL ,670, sos, off
$1,000, ,993, 500 from 1948.
The big movements were ST.
529,149,999 or II per cent drop
in individual income taxes and a
partly offsetting increase of $685.
691, ,437 or 8 per cent in corpora
ton income tax payments.
One reason that individual in
come tax payments were so much
higher in 1948 than in 1949 was
that the income tax cut that
year was not felt in withholding
tax collections until the year was
one-third gone.
Individual income tax receipts
last year totaled $17,752,414,0 ,084
or nearly A per cent of total
Revenue Bureau collections. Cor
porate taxes yielded $4,000, AGO.
$50, or nearly 80 per cent of the
total.
Liquor and tobacco tax yields
varied little from 1948 to 1949.
The liquor levies brought in ST.
204,389, ,821, a $27,785,812 increase:
tobacco brought $i,319,976,401, an
$8,436,852 increase.
Manufacturers Taxes Up.
Manufacturers sales taxes
yielded $1.795, ,636,746, a $50,375,-
456 increase over 1948, due in
large part to strong sales of auto
mobiles, which are taxed 7 per
cent of the manufacturers price.
On the three miscellaneous
class taxes which the President
also has recommended for reduc-
ton. the Government Jared as
follows:
Long distance telephone calls
and kilograms: Receipts, $685.
265.851, a $4.204, ACT increase; the
levy is now Is per cent, the pro-
posed substitute is IS per cent.
Rail, bus, air and ship passenger
tickets: Receipts, $237.707,7 ,735, a
$13,047, ,634 decrease; the levy is
now Is per cent, the proposed levy
10 per cent.
Transportation of property:
Receipts, 1921, 700, 900, a decline
of $17.726.524.
