Needless to say, the symbol of
good fortune was plucked and
preserved. The league officers
are sure it means Lady Luck is
smiling on their enterprise in
becoming the first Republican
group to occupy headquarters in
the block purchased by the Cap
itol Hill Associates for a G. o. P.
national center.
The league quarters are located
in a three story house which is
one of five in the block selected as
the site for a Republican ma
tional headquarters and social
club. The property was acquired
by Capitol Hill Associates last
year, but construction of the pro-
posed center has been DELAYED
because of restrictions on building
materials.
Resumes Housekeeping
In the meantime, the League
OF Republican Women-with only
a small office at 1904 Twentieth
street NV. and most of it's furni-
ture in Storage-decided to lease
several rooms in one of the build
1ngs now on the property and set
up housekeeping again.
Don't expect too much" Mrs.
Kearns cautioned as she pointed
out that only the minimum of
redecoration has been attempted.
However, members are pretty sure
to be pleased with their new home
when it is opened for inspection
the first time on October 2.
The two main rooms on the first

floor have been thrown together
so that the league will have a sort
of assembly hall large enough to
accommodate so members or
more. I'VE are planning to use
it for board meetings and for the
morning study group" Mrs.
Kearns explained. I'VE will con-
tinue to have our general monthly
meetings at the Mayflower Hotel
and the evening study group will
continue to meet at Wardman
Park Hotel"
At the rear of the first floor is
the kitchen, conveniently located
for serving refreshments when it
is so desired.
Second Floor Office
The league Office is housed in
the front room on the second
floor. Here the secretary, Mrs.
Roy E. James, has her desk and
files and here the president also
has desk, tucked away in an
.alcove providing a little privacy
Two other rooms on the second
floor have been leased by a group
of league members engaged in
work for the National Federation
of Women's Republican Clubs and
will serve as library working
rooms for research and study.
|. you know the league is pri-
marily an education organiza-
tion," Mrs. Kearns stressed.
The third floor is still rented
as an apartment, as it was before
the league moved into the build
ing.
So far, the Republican women
haven't given much thought to
gardening. They've been too busy
having sofas recovered, ordering
curtains and selecting carpets and
the like. (The general color
scheme will be soft gray with
green and a touch of rose.)
But the tiny yard out front,
lnclosed with a hedge and iron
fence. and the larger garden space
IN back are sure to inspire mem
bers with green thumbs. It's a
pretty safe bet that small al
fresco meetings will be in order
next spring.

Alright Case
Smells Too Much
For Labor Board

West Palm Beach, Fla. (LPA)-
The Royal Palm Ice Co. thought it
had an alright case in its firing
of w. II. Rose until the National
Labor Relations Board went to
work on it.
Rose, a platform man, was sack
ed three days after Local 257 of
the Transport Workers lost an
election at the ice plant. The com
pany said Rose: (1) overstayed his
vacation period; (2) was temper
airy worker; (3) made trouble; (4)
gave drivers too much ice; (5)
gypped the cash register; (6) call
the plant manager "an uncompli-
mentary epithet."
The NLRB investigation showed:
Cd Rose didn't overstay his vaca-
tion; (2) two years was too long
for a temporary" worker; (3) the
"trouble" consisted of asking others
to join the union; (4) maybe the
missing ice melted; (5) the same
cash register was used by at least
three other workers; CO. the plant
manager didn't get around to COM
planning for a month and a half
after Rose started the union drive.
All this amounted to "discrim-
nation" according to a three-man
NLRB panel which ordered the re-
hiring of Rose with back pay and
told the company not to interfere
with future organizing attempts by
the union.

Immediate Rigid

He warned that "unless we act to

with serious industrial strife" and
added he was prepared to call for
congressional action and investiga-
tion.
Earlier Sen. Joseph C. O'Ma-

visers the first to be heard. He
called attention to the appalling

Report, listing 1850 corporate pro-
fits at $402 billion (more than the

huge expenditures and the tax in
creases are required 'to meet the
barbaric threat of communism. He
told newsmen every tax possibility
including national sales tax was
under scrutiny. And he predicted
even bigger budgets for fiscal 1858
and 1854.
The magnitude of the new bud
get is best understood in compar-
ison with the 1851 budget, which
called for about $40 billion in a
year in which government expendi-
lures because of Korea are turn
ing out to be about SAT billion.
Government receipts are running
at about $44.5 billion, leaving a
deficit of nearly So billion.
In his message to Congress, the
President said wage-price controls
are now inescapable. He announced
that he was recommending fur
ther extension Of rent control with
provision for authority to recon
troll to protect tenants in defense
areas.
Other highlights of the Presi-
dents budget proposals:
The essence Of the Brannan
Plan-direct government payments

commodities instead of support
prices through federal purchase OF
the commodities.
Extension of the Defense Pro-
duction Act beyond June 30 with

production boss Charles +. Wilson
New emergency powers for the
White House to reshuffle and re-
organize government agencies to
meet defense program require
ments.
Improvement in selective service
legislation, 100000 men in uni
form by summer, and an 84group
air force.
Social security coverage for all
workers not covered now, plus pen
sion and insurance plans for spec
ial groups to supplement social
security benefits.
Federal scholarships for medical
and nursing students and federal
funds for medical schools.
Seven new electric power pro-
jects including the long projected

An increase in parcel post and
other postal rates.
New authority for government
to build defense plants private in

Truman Budget Calls For
S16.5 Billion In New Taxes

Washington (LPA) - Main fact
about the federal budget Pres
ident Truman proposed to Con
gress Jan. 15 is that he wants
to finance the mammoth defense
program on pay-as-you-go basis
That means balanced budget
Since the bill for defense is going
to be high, so high it staggers the
Imagination, more taxes are need
ed to meet it. Many Of these taxes
will have to come from persons
making less than $4,000 a year
the people whose personal budgets
already are tight. It's a period-of'
danger budget, the President said
So pay-as-you-go means sacrifice
If you want to blame somebody
better pick on Joseph Stain or Mac
Use Tung.
Other outstanding fact about the
budget is that the President put
the whole Fair Deal in it. He asks
for enactment of his national health
insurance program and urges that
a payroll tax of one fourth of one
percent be levied on both employ,
ers and employees to set it in mo-
tion. He also requests enactment OF
FEPC. But the Fair Deal looks
pretty small compared to military
costs.
BasicalIy, the budget is a re-
statement of what the President
told Congress in his State of the
Union Message and his Economic
report with dollar sign in front
of each point. The President says
the points add up to $71.6 billion
for fiscal 1852 which begins July
this year. (The $7l.6 is the actual
budget. The President said he
wanted total "obligational author
ity" of $94.4 billion. The extra
S22.S billion could be spent in sub
sequent fiscal years, wouldn't have
to be raised in 1882
Of the $71.6 billion the military
services would get $41.4 billion OF
about 58 percent Of the total. An
other S7.5 billion, nearly II per
cent, would be earmarked for inter
national security and foreign re-
lations - including military and
economic aid for other nations OF
the free world. (The Marshall Plan
must be extended, the President
said. The Point Four idea must be
eXpanded.) The remaining 81 per-
cent would cover other costs of
government including propo d
Fair Deal legislation. But under
the circumstances, much of this re-
mainder would be part and parcel
of the defense program-$1.3 bill
ion for atomic energy, for instance.
Under existing tax rates, the
President says, the government
will take in about 1851 billion in
1852, leaving a deficit of $16.5 bill
ion to be made up by new taxes if
the pay-as-you go policy prevails.
But the President warned that
there may have to be additional de-
fense proposals boosting the de-
ficit to $50 billion. He wants bal
anced budget, no matter what hap
pens. More borrowing would just
increase the federal debt, encour-
age initiation, the feeling is.
The President in his budget
message didn't say just how the
taxes should be levied. (He's ex-
pected to send tax message to
Congress shortly.) But he said the
