2. Talk of a possible national
retail sales tax began buzzing
about Capitol Hill.
Meets With Doughton, George.
Mr.. Snyder met with Chairman
Doughton of the House Ways and
Means Committee and Chairman
George of the Senate Finance
Committee to work out the time
table for the third big tax boost
since the Korean war commenced
last June.
Mr.. Doughton later told news
men that under the schedule
tentatively agreed to, the House
Ways and Means Committee first
will consider bills providing for
renegotiation of defense contracts
and for continuation of the recip-
rocal trade law.
These should be gotten out of
the way quickly, he said, and then
the committee hopes to take up
the knotty job OF writing a third
installment" tax bill February !.
New Deficit Feared.
Any hope that slzable new
Federal deficits could be avoided
by increased taxes appeared to be
fading as members of the new
Congress sized up the probable
outlay and came to a tentative
conclusion that the Government
will need somewhere in the region
of $75 billion in the coming fiscal
year. That is S25 billion more than
the record $50 billion collections
Of this year.
1t was learned that Secretary
Snyder told the Armed Forces
Industrial College here in a re-
cent talk:
I'VE must recognize that it is
impossible in fact to cover all the
expenditures of a full-scale mill
tary effort through taxation Of
current incomes. In a system
of free business enterprise such
as ours, there is no alternative
in war financing other than a
combination of taxation and
borrowing"
Letter Is Quoted.
President Truman's letter to
Senator Byrd, as made public by
the Senator, said:
Dear Harry:
Il appreciated most highly your
letter of the twenty-second.
I've always tried my best to
make the revenue meet the ex-
penses of the Government and had
it not been for the action of the

Wage Control ParIeys
To Begin Tomorrow;
Lewis 10 Testify First
Price Freeze Decision
Believed Essential to
Any Policy on Salaries
By jones Y. Newton

The Wage Sterilization Board
tomorrow will begin series of
conferences with top representa-
tives of industry and labor to lay
the groundwork for a National
wage control policy.
But members of the board,
headed by Chairman Cyrus S.
Ching. believe that it would be
nearly impossible to work out a
formula for a lid on wages until
some concrete action has been
taken to check rising living costs.
This action may come within
a week. Mobilization Director
Charles E. Wilson has promised
a ruling probably late this week
on the plan of Price Director
Michael v. Di Sale which would
freeze all prices in the country
for 80 days.
Drastic Action Expected.
Whether Mr.. Wilson would go
along with the Di Sale plan was
uncertain. but most top officials
concerned with the problem ex-
pected Mr.. Wilson to call for some
drastic action that would hold
down living costs. Alan Valentine,
economic stabilization admins
traitor, who is over both Mr..
Di Sale and the Wage Board, has
opposed the price directors idea
which would require all business
to give at least 80 days notice
of any price increase.
John L. Lewis will be the first
leader of labor and industry to
be heard by the Ching board. He
will appear before the board at
10 am. tomorrow.
Mr.. Lewis is expected to de-
mand soon a sizeable wage in
crease for his 100000 soft and
hard coal miners. The United
Mine Workers contract with the

Lewis Attitude Feared.
Some officials fear that Mr.
Lewis might break down any pol
ICY for stabilization of wages be-
fore it can be well established.
He and his miners were the chief
problem of the War Labor Board
in the last war.
Following Mr.. Lewis before the
board tomorrow afternoon will be

COMMUNICATION

To the Editor, Alaska Daily Elm pire:
 Now, that our legislators have gone back to their original jobs, I would like to suggest to Street Commissioner of Juneau to observe Franklin Street, particularly at the corner of second and another spot in front of Pan American office.
 I am sure that he will get a wonderful shower if he will spend half an hour in that vicinity. I certainly got thorough drenching Easter Sunday. Numerous warnings have been issued through this paper to motorists to be more con- siderate to pedestrians on wet days. But these particular spots have been there for years and in my op- inion the blame goes directly to the Street Commissioner of the City of Juneau.
 Who is going to foot the cleaning bill?

United Staes sought to initiate treaty discussion in l947 We are well rid of that impeachment to sat- isfactory settlement with the Japanese people.
 Unfortunately, it will not be possible, in the fore seeabe future correct of the grievous that this country party to in Far Eastern affairs through kowtowing to Russia at Cairo Teheran and Yata. Japan had valid rights to Manchmia save those of conquest but China did. It act of treacherous immortality for the Western Allies to give Manchuria to the Soviets. The additional gift of the Kurile Islands and the Japanese portion of Sakhalin completed a series of stupendous blunders
 Keep Russia out of any future negotiations over territorial settlements that part of the world if it is possible to do so.
 In any case, the United States must insist on retaining for long time the United Nations trustee ship over the Pacific Islands which, Japan once pos sessed or conquered Then, until at length Japan is able to defend her own home islands against aggression, it clear the United States must maintain protective armed wing over that area That will be a costly business, but it would be folly to repeat the of the past and give away the victory this nation virtually alone and without assistance in the Pacific.
