the objections of Aneurin Bevan,
who has just resigned as Labor
Minister, to the size, speed and
method of financing British re-
armament which touched off the
rebellion. Harold Wilson sup
ported Mr.. Bevan by resigning
as president of the Board of
Trade.
Rebels Overruled.
Earlier today, however, the La
Dor Party's national executive, at
its regularly monthly meeting,
overruled the rebels. In an Off
cial statement it called on the
whole labor movement to stand
by the British government and
the budget, which it approved as
fair and reasonable"
The Labor Party rebels contend
led that Britain could not rearm
as fast as the United States wished
her to rearm, and that the United
States was using up such vast
quantities of raw materials in its
own rearmament that Britain
would face economic chaos to the

welfare state.
Mr.. Bevan and his supporters
have been an influential bloc in

Can You Beat This! Can't
 Tell About Dogs

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 11lR- President Truman's recent security order today posed this question: does reporting the projected train ing of. dogs 'in the detection and detonation of land mines" affect national security?
 Officials of the Stanford Research Institute. which planned the pro- ject, contend it does. So do a lieu tenant and a civilian security en- ployee from Army Engineer Corps headquarters at Fort Belvoir, Va.
 No, said It. Col. L. w. Correll, executive and security officer for the North Pacific Corps of Engi- neers in Portland, Ore.
 Correll pointed out that dogs were used to detect land mines in World War II and their handlers disposed of the explosives.
 The question arose after thes Call Bulletin reported the project. Its information came from a public record at city hall-the institutes s request to use 10 acres of city land to- train the dogs.
 Institute directors demanded, said the newspaper, that the story be killed, but declined to give the req son. It was too late; the paper already was on the street. Later, the institutes publicist, William c. Estler. explained the purpose of the project was made public inadvert- ently.
 And the two security officers from Virginia came out to ask an ex- planation.
 Today. the project is dead issue, for the time at least
 The institute withdrew it's re- quest for the land.

Second Biggest lax Increase in History of Unified Sfates Gets 0keh

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11-4R-A $5,750000,000 tax increase, second biggest in American history. was approved today by Senate House conference committee.
 The committees decisions must be submitted to the Senate and House for approval which is likely since the groups work represents a compromise of bills previously passed separately by the two branches of Congress.
 For most individuals, the mea- sure would mean a tax increase in the neighborhood of 11% percent.
 An alternative method is provided for persons in the higher income brackets. They would have the option of paying g percent on the amount of their income left over after paying taxes at present rates.
 Individual increase is estimated to bring in an additional $2.480,- o00,000 revenue over a full years operation.
 The bill boosts corporation tax rates to net $2,300, 100000 to $2,- 400,000,000 more a year, and ups excise (sales) taxes $1,204, ,000, ,000. Some of the miscellaneous provi- sions of the bill reduce rather than increase the governments income.
 The taxes on whiskey, automo- piles, gasoline, cigarettes, and nu- merous other items would go up Nov. 1. The individual income tax increases are due to take effect the same day.
 Leaders plan to call the bill up in the House Tuesday. The Senate will consider it as soon as the House acts.

Low Market .5fopsp Puget
 Fishermen

SEATTLE, Oct 11--tR,--Approxi- mately 1000 purse seiners and fish, crmen are idle on Puget Sound be- cause they just can't afford to fish"
 R. c. Cummings. official of the Fishermen and Allied Workers un- ion, said yesterday that low fish prices have knocked the bottom out of the individtiAI fishermaus wages.
 He said the idleness of the fleet is not strike--or even a dispute but is the result of situation that neither the fishermen nor the pack CTS have been able to help.
 ITO show what the situation is, the OPS ceiling price of chum sal- mon is $19 case" said Cummings. But the actual price is only Sl6.'
 He said that last years contract provided that fishermen should re- Fceive minimum of Ii cents a pound for chum salmon and 20 cents pound for silvers. But be- cause of the market conditions they actually received IT cents for chums and 25 for eilysp.
 This year, said Cummings. market conditions are such that the pack CTS cannot operate and pay IA cents for chums, so they are offering only 12 cents.
 And a 30 percent cut tn wages is hard to take" he added.
 Cummings said he felt imports of fish from foreign countries have been largely responsible To. depres- sing the market. He said Japanese tuna is coming into the country duty free And the tariff on s'anad- ian canned salmon has been reduced.
