sociation, with some TOO delegates
committed to a program of foster

Doesn't Mention Taft.
President Truman did not men
ton Senator Taft by name but he
left no doubt as to the identity of
his target when he spoke of "the
one Senator" who wanted to slash
the armed forces.
Senator Taft had told the
Chamber of Commerce of the
United States a short time ago
that the projected force of 3.5
million should be cut by 100000
because the country's economy
could not carry indefinitely force
of the size projected.
"At a time like this. such cut
would be very foolish" the Pres
Iident continued, adding that
"slashing the size of our armed
forces would not be an economy
lit would be an invitation to war"
Then to emphasize this point
the President, dropping into one
of the frequent interpretations of
his speech, said that same Sena-
tor wants to go into an all-out
war against China all by our
selves
Backs Defense Department.
In his prepared text, the
President took only passing-and
oblique notice of the Macarthur
controversy but as he addressed
the conference he ad libbed strong
support Of the Defense Depart
ment.
There's a lot of discussion now
adays about military strategy,
the President said. That Is all
right. Military strategy is impor-
tant and everybody ought to be
concerned about.
But there are q lot of other
problems that are equally i'm
portant. We have the hard prob
lens of defense production, taxes
and stabilization, for example.
Unless we face all those problems
we won't be able to have any
military strategy at ALL"
Looking up from his manuscript
the President drew a warm burst
of applause as he added:
And T want to say to you that
our Defense Department is headed
by the ablest group of men this
Nation has ever had for planning
and carrying out it's defense poll

District Officials Ask
End Of Property Tax
On Household Goods
Congress Told Levy
Is Widely Evoded ond
Makes People Cheot
By Harold B. Roqers

Repeal OF the clty'S personal
property tax on household goods
and jewelry was strongly urged on
Congress today by District off,
cials who claimed the levy not
only was being widely evaded but
was making cheats out of
people.
Members of a Joint House
Senate District subcommittee
voiced reluctance during a public
hearing to repeal of the tax un-
less the prospective loss of about
100000 in revenue could be re-
covered in some other way.
Senator Hunt, Democrat, Of
Wyoming, chairman of the Joint
District Subcommittee on Fiscal
Affairs, recessed the hearing until
2 pm. next Tuesday.
Bar Association Heard.
Joining in support of the repeal
were spokesmen for the District
Bar Association, the Federation
of Citizens Associations and the
Property Owners Association here.
Among the witnesses to be
heard Tuesday will be William
Press, executive secretary of the
Board of Trade.
The joint committee was told
that District officials and the Bar
Association had come to complete
agreement on terms of compre-
hensive bill which would not only
repeal the personal property tax
on household belongings, but also
make about II other changes in
the Districts revenue laws.

Mr.. Fowler supported the testi-
