Malik's statement. 1t looks as If 1t
may be propaganda"
Senator Millikin, Republican of
Colorado, chairman of the Senate
Republic Conference, said the
Malik speech sounds completely
false to me-"
Referring to Mr.. Malik's charge
that the North Atlantic pact
caused world tensions, Senator
Millikin said:
"The North Atlantic pact was
set up as a deterrent and neces-
sary protection against the open
aggression Of Communist Russia. Z"
Senator KEN, Republican OF
Missouri, suggested that the Malik
proposal should get some consider
alton, saying:
"The American people would
like the hostilities in Korea
brought to an end. The casualties
are mounting at an alarming rate.
We cannot appease, but>we should
examine carefully any approach
that has the possibility of leading
to an honorable peace.
At Milwaukee. Senator Ke-
fauver. Democrat. of Tennessee
said the Russians proposal must
be taken with grain of salt" The
Senator added at a news confer
ence preceding a speech before a
Democratic Party dinner:
II would like to believe 1t was
serious, but you must consider that
Chinese Communists need period
of recuperation badly. It may be
an effort to confuse us and gain
time for them"
White House officials had no
immediate comment to make.
Speaks at Dedication.
The occasion for the Presidents
speech tomorrow, the first ami
versary of the Red invasion of
South Korea, is the dedication of
the Arnold Engineering Develop
ment Center, the most ambitious
project ever devised for solving the
problems Of jet propulsion and
faster than sound flight.
In connection with this project,
$157. SOC. 900 already has been ap-
Ipropriated, for:
!. A high-altitude engine test
ing facility for ramjets, turbojets
and gas turbine engines. It will
utilize $13 million of equipment
obtained from the beaten Ger
mans at the Bavarian motor works
jet engine test plant, as we'll as
the services of German experts
now working in this country.
2. A gas dynamics facility (hy-
personic wind tunneD for aerody-
manic testing and detailed studies
Of models over a speed range run
ming from that of sound (about
765 miles an hour at sea leveD to
far beyond.
8. Propulsion wind tunnel for
development testing of full scale,
operating ramjet and turbojet
power plants as installed in mis-
sileS and aircraft.

The Air Force says the speed
range of this third tunnel will ex-
tend well into the supersonic. >
It's operation will require zoe, 1000
horsepower. equivalent to the
: power needs of a large city. And
its coolers for temperature con-
troll will use 100000 gallons OF
water a minute, about that re-
quired by a city as big as Wash
ington.
Mr.. Truman is to speak after a
two-hour flight from Washington

Comunche Jom
Packed for Formal
Opening on Saturday

Hundreds of patrons jam-pack-
ed the Comanche Dance Hall to
mark its formal opening on Satur-
day night last. Undoubtedly the
most beautiful Of its kind on the
Island, the Hall was tropically de-
corated to give the breezy trade
wind feeling to the atmosphere
which is SO much a part of this
Island.
The swimming pool, located at
the northend, was enticing enough
with spotlight shining on the
water, for it seemed to beckon you
IN, despite the slightly brisk
weather that night. But of course,
no one ventured.
E. H. Ostrehan, an engineer of
the Gable and Wireless gave a
one-man floor show, demonstrate
ing some sleight-of-hand and
other tricks that revealed him as
a first-class magician in his own
right. Patrons were thrilled and
Justify applauded. He was intro
duced by Guy Reynolds.
The famous Motta Brothers
orchestra were at their best on
Saturday night and kept the Gus
toners on their feet most of the
times, with everything from a
waltz to the Mambo.
Mr.. Reynolds and his partner
Ted Dale, are proprietors of the
Hotel. AS the patrons left many
stopped to congratulate them on
their achievement.

Governor Replies
To Editorial on
Internal Rev. Tuxes

An editorial of the st. Thomas
Daily News of Thursday, Febru-
airy 8, referred to the 1850 Federal
Incline Tax Law and stated that
the law provides that all income
taxes collected in the Virgin
Islands shall now be paid into the
Treasury Of the United States. At
his press conference Governor de
Castro said that it would appear
to be a natural assumption by a
cursory examination of certain
sections of the 1850 United States
Internal Revenue Law. However,
the fact is that the new income
tax law in its requirements for
payment of certain taxes into the
Treasury Of the United States re-
fers to the Social Security taxes
and not to income taxes.
There is still question, however,
as to whether the law requires
Federal employees stationed in
the Virgin Islands to pay their
taxes into the United States
Treasury and not into the local
treasury. This question refers to
Federal employees only and not
to other citizens. This matter is
now before the Bureau of Inter
nal Revenue and we have present
ed our case TO Federal employ
eeS to continue to pay their in
come taxes in these islands. On
this point a decision is expected
shortly. However, there is no ques
ton that the law requires pay
ment of all the other income tax
es into the local treasury.
