TAX ON L. S. SOLDIERS d.
Congress is looking into and will take
action on the fact that France is
charging 81 on IS in taxes for every
American soldier landing at her ports.
II is stated that about onc-fifth of
what we spend in France we pay in
taxes there. Also under discussion is
the fact that the United States is
charged for military cargoes landed
in French ports. So far, there have
been no results from the discussions.
ARMED FORCE SPENDING
The Armed Forces insist that their
budget cannot be cut if We are not to
strip our defcnses. Yet according to
recent reports, $5,114,42O worth of
Army supplies have been stolen in Ko-
rea alone. Many Of these supplies are
turning up in the black markets. The
Army admits this loss but claims it
does not have sufficient personnel to
guard the supplies, and, in addition,
also claims that they cannot differ
entiate their supplies from those given
to the Koreans through the Mutual
Security Administration. The Army
now says it is taking steps to safe
guard supplies in the future
AGRICULTURE LOSSES The
Agriculture Department finally has
promised to tell Congress exactly
how much of the Governments stock
Of farm products has been stolen. The
General Accounting Office reported
to the Senate Agriculture Committee
that the Commodity Credit Corpora
ton paid one firm approximately 10
cents bushel more than necessary for
four to six million bushels of wheat
which the dealer did not even have
on hand. This transaction alone cost
the government almost one million

1929, 100 and then discovered that in
stead of Egypt receiving the wheat
an Egyptian combine bought it and
sold the wheat into other countries
while we accepted the Egyptian cot
ton at the market price. The combine
presumably pocketed 81 million
profit.
