Collection Of Higher
Withholding Taxes by
Oct. | Held Unlikely
Senate Committee Hopes
To Complete Work on
New Formula Today
By J. A. o'Leoy

The new tax bill, on which the
Senate Finance Committee is
working today, probably will not
become law in time to start coll
lection Of the increase from pay
on October /.
Chairman George said he has
serious doubts the October coll
lection date can be met.
Senate Democrats, in party
conference last night. stuck to
their October / adjournment goal,
but other must" bills viii delay
Senate passage of the $7.2 bill
lion tax bill until September Is
or later.
Respite to Nov. / Likely.
Differences between Senate
and House would still have to be
ironed out in conference, and it
may be almost October / before
the Treasury knows what the new
withholding rates will be.
When the bill passed the House
in June, it provided for beginning
collection of the new 1914 per cent
defense tax from individuals on
September 1. Long Senate hear
ings have put that date out of the
question. Wage earners may get
a respite until November. /.
When the Finance Committee
recessed at 1890 today Senator
George said it had practically
agreed on a slight downward re-
vision of the 1914 per cent House
rate, but with some compromise
changes in the new formula tenta-
lively adopted Tuesday He said
the committee hopes to reveal the
new formula late today.
Other Must" Bills.
The other must" bills to be
acted on are:
The $7.5 billion foreign aid bill,
the $50 billion armed forces bud
get, and the $5.7 billion military
public works bill, for expansion of
camps in this country and bases
overseas.
Majority Leader Mcfarland an
nounced his goal would be to pass
foreign aid by September /, the
armed forces budget by September
8 and the tax bill about Septem-
ber Is. That would leave two
weeks to clean up some secondary
legislation, and still quit October /.

AZ Killed as Air|iner Crashes
And Burns in California Hills;
Wreckage Strewn Over 2 Acres
All Lost Aboard
UAL Plane; Bodies
Pile Up in Ruvine
By the Assoeiuted Press

OAKLAND, Calf, Aug. "a
Forty-seven persons died on the
crest of low hill near here today
as million dollar airliner
crashed and disintegrated. There
were no survivors.
Hours later broken bodies were
being taken from the shattered
wreckage of the United AirlineS
plane. At the top of the hill lay
the body of a little ow-headed
boy. His skull was crushed. Others
lay in tangled debris in a ravine.
The plane, a DC-6-B was flying
nonstop from Chicago to Oak
land. The flight originated in BoS-
ton last night and the 4-engine
ship had stopped at Hartford and
Cleveland, in addition to Chicago.
In Chicago, United Airlines said
the list of Al passengers was
Sketchy. with some names incom-
plete and few home towns listed.
0dNC hOutAIle NcpOEts
Only five minutes before the
plane was to have landed at Oak
land Airport, it crashed mex
plicably into low hill 112 miles
east of Decoto. a farming commu-
nifty about 10 miles southeast of
Oakland.
Three minutes before the crash,
Pilot Marion w. Hedden of Los
Altos, Calf, had given the con-
troll tower a routine report.
Then residents of the area were
startled by flaming flash and the
rumble of blast. The six crew
members and the passengers died
when the huge liner plowed into
the hill. The shattered debris
rained down for 200 yards as the
plane slid into the sharp-ribbedI
ravine at the base of the knoll.
The DC-6-B type plane has
been in United Airlines service
since August l.. It's use has been
the source of controversy be-
tween the Airlines Pilots Associa-
ton and the various airlines.
No Road to Scene.
Last June the pilots struck
United for 10 days. demanding
that their mileage pay be geared
to the handling of the faster and
larger plane.
There was no road to the tragic
scene. Ambulances and other res
cue cars slipped and slid over
the smooth, dry grass as they tried
to make their way up the slopes
and through the many small ra-
vines.
About 2 acres of grass and scrub
brush burned as the fire and blast
shook the giant liner into thou
sand pieces.
Baggage. personal effects, let
ters, clothing and parts of bodies
were Strewn over the area, but
most of the bodies were found in
the ravine at the foot of the hill.
Pieces of the four engines were
scattered over the grass and brush
patches.
Three hours after the crash 13
bodies had been recovered and
placed in ambulanceS.

Joe F. Angel, who operates a
motor tow service in nearby Hay
ward, said he saw the fire and
started coward it. He said he
