Russians would not initiate a

interval, however, they would
continue to export their one
commodity, the composite of
chaos, anarchy and confusion.
The Russians, he said, would
not be concerned by any loss
of life among their own people:
during the last war they kept
no records of the dead, of their
casualties; there were no per-
sonnel records in any of the
Russian Armies: when they
wished to clear minefields they
did it by human bodies rather
than by any mechanism: in

they were guided by an utter

Tax Conferees Ease
Some Excises, Wait
To Fix Income Levy
Congress Is Expected
To Be Kept Here Until
Near End of Month
BY ]. A. OLeon

House and Senate confereeS
voted yesterday to ease up on some
existing excise taxes, but quit until
tomorrow without deciding how
much more income tax individuals
will pay after November l..
Indications last night were that
Congress may be in session until
near the end of October to COM
plete action on a tax measure OF
somewhere between SIS billion
and 81 billion, on foreign aid and
several other appropriation bills
While the nation watched the
third game of the world series
the tax conferees were hard at
work, trying to settle their differ
ences. One of the decisions they
made was to drop the present 1C
per cent tax on baseballs and
baseball equipment. instead OF
raising it to Is per cent.
Trailer Tax to be Dropped.
1t is understood their decision
was based on showing that only
8 per cent of the equipment is used
by professionals, the rest by anna
teurs and youngsters.
Other decisions reached yester-
day were:
To repeal the tax on trailers. on
the theory they are used as homes.
To fix the tax on kilograms at
Is per cent. instead of the present
Is per cent, or the 20 per cent rate
proposed by the House.
To adjust the tax on photo
graphic equipment and film at
20 per cent. but with an exemption
for supplies used for business pur-
poses. Under present law the tax
is Is per cent on Photographic ap-
paratus and Is per cent on film
both at manufacturers level.
1919 on Fishing Equipment.
The Senate rate of 10 per cent
on fishing rods and equipment
was accepted. instead of Is pei
cent in the House bill.
The House agreed to Senate ac-
ton, raising from 10 to Is per
cent the manufacturers tax on
cricket balls. lacrosse equipment
and skates.
The conferees decided not to in
crease the tax on bowling alleys
billiards and pool tables.
They agreed on a Is per cent
manufactures tax on mechanical
pencils. fountain pens. ball-point
pens and mechanical lighters.

10. An ominous Spring

zone of Mr.. Forrestal's
more casual diary notes gives
an interesting sidelight on
President Truman):
20 December, 1916.
THE PRESIDENT.
Last night the President came
to dinner with Secretary of
State Byrnes. Averell Hartman
and few others. Before dim
ner I showed him copy of the
New Republic. which I SAID
was going to give Jimmy Byrnes
for Christmas. In it was a carl
cature of Senator Taft with a
picture of his father in the
background. The President
laughed at the caricature of
Senator Taft. but expressed
himself that it was not in good
taste and an improprietv to
caricature an ex-President who
is dead.
I make note of this because
1t served to strengthen the inn
preston I have had of the Pres
ident's traditionalism and his
sense Of the Importance of sus-
tanning the dignity of govern
ment. His remarks to the
Commission on Universal Train
ing this morning reflected much
OF the same feeling, plus a deep
and obviously very sincere de-
votion to the Government and
the people of the country.

d. Ha~:I A.u~l
By Cecil Holland

A controversy over what hap
pened at a 1949 White House con-
ference on aid to the faltering
Chinese Nationalists f1ared anew
yesterday as Harold E. Stassen
said the diaries of the late Sena-
tor Vandenberg, Republican. of
Michigan. would support his pre-
vious testimony about the meet
ing.
He also said that the diary of
the late James ForreStal, Secre-
tary of Defense at the time of the
conference, would offer further
corroboration and show that only
the State Department could have
proposed cutting off military aid
to the Nationalists.
Mr.. Stassen testified at bis own
request in return appearance
before the Senate Internal Secu-
rity subcommittee investigating
aspects of this country's Far
Eastern policy.
His view that the military op-
posed the cutoff while the State
Department supported it was i'm
mediately disputed by a Govern
ment official IN a position TO know
what went on during the period
two years ago when actions now
being challenged in Congress were
being considered. This official
said that both Mr.. t'orrestal and
Secretary of State Acheson agreed
in a National Security Council
meeting to suspend temporarily
shipments to China.
To Study New Data.
Shortly after the hearing Sen
ator Ferguson, Republican, of
Michigan. told reporters the sub
committee had agreed to subpoena
the Vandenberg diary and ask for
minutes of the White House con-
ference and other papers bearing
on the matter.
Mr.. Stassen, who offered to re-
turn for further questioning under
oath if the documents are made
available. said after the hearing
he will present new evidence
bearing on the formation of the
Far Eastern policy when he testi-
fieS tomorrow before a Senate
Foreign Relations subcommittee

delegate to the United Nations
General Assembly.

District Commissioner F. Joseph
IDonohue last night declared he
won't back down on the new Fire
Department integration policy
despite an attack on it yesterday
by member Of the House District
Committee.
Representative Davis, Democrat,
Iof Georgia, demanded that the
Commissioners rescind their order
Iof last Tuesday establishing the
new policy. Commissioner Dono-
hue last night not only stated he
would stand pat, but blasted seq
Eregation of firemen as "un-Ameri-
can" and "unconscionable."
Mr.. Donohue spoke in his weekly
broadcast over Station WWDC.
He told reporters he was replying
to the Davis attack, but added the
Congress member had not vet

The Commissioner emphasized
he was speaking for himself. but

stand after being called to Cap-

The integration order APPLIES to
l6 Negro flremen already in the
department. 1t provides for their
assignment to vacancies in white
units.
In attacking it yesterday, Rep

Mr.. Donohue cited six reasons
which he said justified the new
policy. They were:

2. 1t will work.

Points to Dollar Position.
The Conservative leader said
the loss of revenue from the
1ranian oil holdings has worsened
Britain's dollar position. He
added.
Now that the Abadan refinery
has passed out of our hands, we
have to buy Oil In dollars instead

This means that at least $500
