lean troops stationed in Germany
Britain, some informants say
might be asked to concentrate on
jet fighter forces and strong
anti submarine naval force for
two reasons: To give quick air sup
port to continental troops in case
of attack and to combat the strong
Russian submarine feet.
That would leave costly heavy
naval vessels and big. high-speed
bombers to be provided by the
United States.
Overall Command Urged.
An overall command is en-
visioned. 1t would consist of dep
uties appointed by the foreign
ministers to meet frequently. even
continuously if necessary.
To head the deputies, the
United States urges the appoint
ment OF a super diplomat.
There is considerable insistence
that he should be a civilian. This
stand repeatedly is taken in high
places and means that British
newspaper speculation concerning
such an appointment for Gen
Omar N. Bradley. chairman of the
United States joint chiefs of staff
or for Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower
wartime supreme Allied COM
mander in Europe. probably is in
correct.
A civilian, it is felt, would give
more necessary weight to eco
nomic and political matters than
would a military man. One civil
liam under consideration of the
job repeatedly is w. Averill Har-
rlman, now rowing American Am
bassador for the Marshall Plan.

Prospect Of Reducing
Excise Tax Fades as
NewRevenueB Bill Fails
Sy the Assoeioied Press

New doubts arose on Capitol
Hill today that there will be ex-
else tax reductions this year
unless President Truman changes
his mind about vetoing any tax
bill that reduces the overall reve-
nues Of the Treasury.
The House Ways and Means
Committee, by voice vote late yes
terday, rejected the Presidents
proposal for a $400 million in
crease in Federal levies on inheri-
tances and big gifts.
This was one of the big increases
along with higher corporation
taxes and the plugging of tax-law
loopholes-by which Mr.. Truman
asked Congress to offset the loss
from proposed excise reductions.
Tax law managers, after yester-
days action, predicted to news
men that Congress never will be
able to Offset, with higher taxes
elsewhere, the $1,080,000,000 in
excise cuts the Ways and Means
Committee estimates it has ap-
proved already.
Nearly Twice Limit.
The figure is almost twice as big
as the $685. million limit Mr.. Tru-
man recommended. 1t includes
reductions on furs. jewelry, ladies
handbags. toilet preparations,
movie admissions, travel tickets
and scores of other items.
The committee has yet to act on
the Presidents proposal for $3.50
million increase in corporation
taxes. 1t also has some votes to
take on his suggestions for plug
ging loopholeS in the tax laws that
would yield more millions.
There is substantial doubt that
the bill finally sent to the White
House will follow the Presidents
proposals closely either on the
higher corporation tax or the loop
hole plugging.
But, while the committee yes
terday turned down the bigger
estate and gift taxes, it did move
to tap a source Of additional reve-
nue. not suggested by the President.
1t voted Is to to impose a 10
per cent withholding tax on cor
poration dividends. designed to
collect $3.50 million annually from
persons now lodging taxes on
dividend income.
Earnings Not Reported.
This puts no new tax obligation
on any persons, but cracks down
on those who now fail to report
their dividends when they make
out income tax returns. It is
patterned after the pay-as-you-go
tax withholding from wages and
salaries.
The committee was told that
$1.4 billion of the approximately
SO billion paid annually in cor
poration dividends never is re-
ported in individual income tax
statements.
The dividends withholding
scheme would give the tax COL
lector sure check on how much
dividend income each taxpayer
got-and tax-dodging in this field
might become a thing Of the past.
Counting the gain from divi-
dend tax dodgers, the committee
thus far has found only 1920 mil
lion of the $1,000, 10000 it needs
in new revenue sources to counter
the excise reductions.

SPORTS
Regulations Set
On Fishing Season

The Ohio Wildhfe Council has
officially adopted fishing rules
and regulations for the 1850 seas
on beginning March /.
There will be even less restrict
ions on fishermen this year than
last when the Council opened 20
lakes to Iiberalized fishing. More
than 100 lakes and seven streams
will be open to liberalized re-
gulations of no closed seasons,
minimum legal lengths and bag
limits. Anglers may fish any
time and may keep all they catch
regardless of size or number on
nearly 90 state-owned lakes and
100 lakes and ponds not owned
by the state but under free pub
lie fishing agreement.
In addition, the Council approx
ed opening one stream and its
tributaries, in each of the seven
wildlife conservation districts TO
liberalized fishing. These include
Riley Creek in the northwestern
district, Vermilion River in the
north central district; Beaver
Creek in the north eastern dis
trict; Salt Creek in the east CEN
trail district; Big Walnut Creek in
central Ohio, excepting Black
Lick and Alum Creeks; Little East
Fork of the Little Miami River
in southwestern Ohio and Shade
River in the southern Ohio dis.
trict.
This will mark the 9Th year Of
the liberalized fishing experiment
in Ohio to determine whether or
not unrestricted fishing has any
harmful efforts on fish pop
ulations.
