Donohue Urges Action.
Commissioner F.. Joseph Dono-
hue last night in his weekly radio
report over Station WWDC urgec
District citizens to make theil
feelings known to Congress at the
public hearings this week.
The House slashes. Mr.. Dono-
hue said, mean that the Com
Imissioners are facing the re-
Isponsibility of providing the city
in 1858 with services of the STAN
dard provided in 1852. but they
will have $13 million less to pay
for them"
What kind of city you will
have in 1853 depends upon the
outcome of the hearings this
week." the Commissioner added
He urged District citizens to
make every effort to convince the
Senate of the unfairness of the
|20 per cent slash in the Federal
contribution made by the House
Senate officials last night re-
Leased a 1,600-word outline OF
Federal-District fiscal relations
Iby Budget Officer Walter l.
Fowler, which has been inserted
in the Senate hearings record by
direction of Chairman Hill, Demo-
|crat, of Alabama.
His outline revealed that in the
past So years the costs of the Ma
tional Capital have leaped from a
total outlay of SIG million in 1917
to more than $131 million today,
but that during the same period
the size of the Federal share has
been cut back from a one-time
$3.50 ratio to less than 8 per cent.
Tax Payments Cited.
In the face of this, Mr.. Fowler
declared, the latest available
breakdown of Federal income tax
payments lfor 1940 shows that
District taxpayers paid into the
Federal treasury more than any
of SO States and territories.
While the District population
in 1945 was only III per cent of
the Total for the United States,
he said, it's internal revenue con-
tributions amounted to 1.24 per
cent.
Internal revenues collected from
the District in 1947. he said,
totaled more than $485 million.
He stressed also that last year,
when District appropriations for
personnel exceeded $73 million,
District workers alone paid more
than IS million in Withholding
taxes to the United States.
Several members of the District
subcommittee of the Senate APP
preparations Committee already
have indicated they will fight for

have been contending Gen. Eisen-
hover is carrying on a political
campaign from Paris. but without
committing himself on controver-
sial issues, and is therefore asking
the Republican Party to "buy a
pig in a poke"
Gen, Eisenhower admirers
have said they are sure he will
make known his views in due time
Senator Taft issued statement
last night which amounted to a
polite challenge to the general to
present his position on all the
issues before the American
people"
Text of Taft Statement.
The statement follows:
Millions of Americans must
have shared my own pleasure in
hearing the news that Gen. Eisen-
hover plans to come home on
June / and present his candidacy
in person to the voters of this
country. I extend cordial invi-
tation to him to campaign active
|ly, as I have been doing, so that
we may both present to the Re-
publicans our definite views on the
issues before the people. on the
position the Republican Party
should take on these issues, and on
the kind of campaign that should
be conducted.
II realize the embarrassment in
which his supporters have placed
him while he was on active duty,
but once he returns to an inactive
status, I am sure no one would
criticize him if he should frankly
and promptly present his position
on all the issues before the Ameri-
can people"
Gen. Eisenhower is giving up
his post as NATO commander and
going on inactive status by June /.
He disclosed in Paris yesterday he
plans to make speech at Abilene.
Kans., June 4.
He said that if he wins the
Republican presidential nomina-

from the Army altogether and
"he FREQ tn act and speak as any

Senator Butler, Republican, of
Nebraska, a Taft backer, issued
a statement saying:
ut is worth noting that, al
though the President summarily
dismissed another five-star gen.
|eral who was actively running a
war, namely Macarthur, he is
allowing Gen. Eisenhower six
weeks to continue his political
campaign from SHAPE head
quarters.
Eisenhower has had the time
in recent weeks to conduct a
running political conference with
his advisors, like George Allen.

"A new Prefecture Apostolic, the

gregation for the Propagation of
the Faith.
The new Prefecture, Kiayi, en-
braces territory taken from the
Prefecture of Kaoshung, in charge
of Spanish Dominicans. The new
Prefecture will be in charge of
Chinese diocesan clergy and Bish-
op Thomas Niu Hui-ching of Yang
ku has been named Apostolic Ad-
miniStrator.
The other two Apostolic Prefec-
lures on Formosa are those of Tai
pei in charge of the Disciples of
Christ, an all-Chinese community,
and of Taichung, stated by the
Maryknoll Fathers. Both were
erected in 1850.

with conversions being Is times
more numerous than they were
five years ago. There are close to
