Union efforts to have the Inter-
state Commerce Commission halt
operation of the Alexandria, Bar
croft g. Washington Transit Co. by
the State of Virginia have failed.
The ICC disclosed yesterday it
had dismissed a complaint by
Local 1881, Amalgamated Associa-
ton of Street Electric Railway and
Motor Coach Employees. The I'M
ion had asked that the company's
operating certificate be revoked on
the grounds the Interstate Com
merce Act was being violated be-
cause of operation of the bus line
by the Virginia Corporation Com
mission.
The State took over the line last
July 81 after the union had filed
strike notice arising from termina-
ton of a collective bargaining
agreement between the union and
the company.
Commissioner Lee Dissents.
Decision of the commission,
which was marked by a pointed
dissent by Commissioner William
E. Lee, stated in part:
1--WE are convinced that by rea-
son of the strike notice served upon
the A., B. 81 w., it became in
capacitated on July 81, 1949, to
continue its normal operations and
has remained so incapacitated.
"It is further our opinion that
the Governor of Virginia. in TAX
ing possession of the plant and
equipment of the A., B. 81 W., and
in continuing the operation of
that property in the public inter-
est, was and is a guardian of an
incapacitated holder of operating
rights within the meaning of Sec
ton 1913 of our amended trans
fer rules"
In justifying it's ruling, the
commission made this further
point:
"An important factor we must
keep in mind is that, as admitted
by all parties, the continued oper-
alton Of the bus line of the A., B.
81 w. not only is essential in the
public interest generally, but also
is of serious concern to the ma

held that they were not convinced
that State operation of the line

Republicans Attempt
Quick S7OO,OOO,0O0
|Cut in Excise Taxes
BY J. A. O'Leory

Republicans will try for quick
House action today on more than
$700. .000.0 900 of cuts in wartime
excise taxes.
The odds are against them,
however, because administration
leaders are anxious to follow
President Truman's request that
excise tax relief be accompanied
by offsetting increases in other
corporation levies, and by closing
legal loopholes in existing law.
Republican Floor Leader Martin
announced he would offer his
schedule of lower excise taxes as
soon as he learned late yesterday
that Democratic Leader McCor-
mack of Massachusetts, would call
up an administration bill to
change the tax laws affecting in
surance companies,
"Since they are going to take
up a part of the administrations S
tax program. I thought we ought
to take up the part the public
is most interested in," Mr.. Martin
told a reporter.
He added a prediction that
there viii be a buyers strike"
against commodities covered by
excise levies if Congress waits
two or three months to find other
sources of revenue before reducing
the excises.
Although Mr.. Martins amend
ment will be offered to a revenue
bill, he may be ruled out of order
on the ground that excise rate
changes are not germane to the
insurance sections of the revenue
act.
Most observers believe the
House will pass a lower schedule
OF excise taxes whenever it gets
a chance to vote, but a point of
order could block the COP ma
neuver to force decision today.
The Martin motion reflects a
conflict that is brewing, quietly
behind the scenes between ad-
ministration advocates of a one
package tax bill and those who

that most of them be cut by
one-half or more. The Massa-

add stoves to his original bill, de-
claring there is no logic in helping
war veterans to build houses and
then tax them for stove.
The fact that 200 separate ex-

duced in Congress is evidence of
the strength such reductions will
have If put to a vote.
