On the other hand, extension
of excess profits for six months
would produce an estimated ad-

Truman had not counted on.
Go-Slow Attitude.
So far, Senate Republicans
who must deal with tax problems
have adopted go-slow attitude
to a greater degree than their
counterparts in the House.
But these Senators have been
reluctant to speak out publicly.
For one thing, they don't want
to start an open dispute with
Mr.. Reed.
Senator Taft of Ohio, the Re-
publican leader and a former
Finance Committee member, is
one who has said openly he be-
lieves the excess profits levy
should be extended for six
months.
Most Senate Republicans are
in agreement with Mr.. Reed on
one thing: Relief for income
taxpayers and expiration of the
excess profits tax must come to-
gether.

NEGRO Church Leader Saws

A Negro church leader who

today said the Chief Executive
'is going to make good on every
promise he made during the
campaign"
The comment came from
Bishop Decatur Ward Nichols Of
Philadelphia, who presides over
the First District of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church.
Bishop Nichols. who was active
in the Eisenhower campaign,
was accompanied to the White
House by Bishop L. H. Heming-
way of Washington.
Bishop Nichols during the
campaign wanted Gen. Eisen-
hover to come out in favor of a
compulsory fair employment
practice committee.
The President opposes the
principle of compulsion.
The bishop would not discuss
the details Of today's conference
but stressed that Gen. EiSen-
hover wants first class citi-
zenship" for all the people of the
country. He said the President
will come through at the prop
er time"

New Soviet Planes May Top
Ours, Trade Magazine Says

Soviet Russia. in every cate
CORY of combat aircraft, has
models coming into production
comparable or superior to
American and British types,
and some of them already are
rolling off production lines.
This was pointed out today
in the trade publication Ameri-
can Aviation Magazine, in re-
port on Russia's aeronautical
progress.
The Communist air power
buildup extends to the satellite
nations west of Russia itself, the
magazine said. Many former
East German aircraft plants
are being reconverted to plane
production. The Russians also
have rehabilitated every former
Luftwaffe air base in their zone
and have added others.
Bases Cited.
More than 1000 combat
planes, including 800 MIG-15s
and MIG-17s. now are based in
East Germany, American Avia-
ton said, in addition to several
hundred jet fighters from the
4th Air Force and Polish units
in Poland.
Citing information from spe-
cial sources, American Aviation
listed the following new Russian
military aircraft:
/. MIG-17. production-line
successor to the MIG-15 now
operating in Korea. This air.
craft. featuring two jet engines,
is designed primarily for day
| interception but it's abundance
| of radar equipment makes it also
useful for all-weather duties.
Top speed is $50 miles per hour
and service ceiling $4,000 feet.

Scent Fare Enough
For Pupils, Group Is Told

A school fare rate of not more

speaker at the Hawthorne

James Perrin. president of the
group, said transit fares have

school fares should not exceed a
nickel.
IF the Public Utilities Com
mission is authorized to set
school fares at up to one half
the adult fare, you can be sure
they will do So" he said.

Extension Of Taxes
On Excess Profits
Seen : Inevitable
By III. A,.oein,sd Pres.

A highly placed Republican
Senator said today extension of
the excess profits tax beyond
June 80 would be inevitable if a
way could be found to make such
a move palatable to the House.
Preliminary calculations of the
Eisenhower administration, he
said, indicate revenue from the
excess profits levy on corpora
tions will be needed to help bal
ance the budget in fiscal 1854,
starting this July /.
This Senator, who serves on
the Finance Committee, said a
firm Treasury recommendation
for extension probably would be
the only thing that would induce
the House to accept it. The
Senator asked not to be named.
Need Time to Study.
New Republican Treasury off,
cials so far have taken the posi-
tion that they need time to study
the entire fiscal situation and
have urged Congress to go slow
on taxes.
But this has had little effect
on veteran Chairman Reed of
the Ways and Means Commit
tee, who has signalled full speed
ahead on his bill to give relief
to some so million individual
income taxpayers.
The measure would advance
from December 81 to June 80
the expiration date of the IL
per cent boost for individuals
voted in 1851. Since the base
total revenue is different, this
would mean an average cut of
10 per cent.
Report Bill Monday.
Mr.. Reed promises to get the
bill out of his committee at a
meeting next Monday. He also
asserts that Congress will not
vote extension of excess profits.
The Reed measure would cost
the Government an estimated
$1.8 billion in the next fiscal
year.
This would make it all the
harder to balance the budget in
that year. Former President
Truman submitted a budget
which forecast deficit of al
most $40 billion for fiscal 1854;
he based his estimates on the
assumption the income tax cut

Communist Commissar Anton. All
three were pictured giving the

also presented to the Senate and to

writing to the Communist Brigade
in Spain in which Attlee praises
the Communist soldiers for their
devotion to freedom and uses the
usual Communist jargon such as
workers of the world unite"
@. You referred to Atlee's SAL
ute to the Communist soldiers as
the Communist salute. Attlee stat
ed that this is an anti-F Fascist sal-
ute. Which is correct?
A. To the best of my knowledge
there never has been an "anti-
Fascist" salute. The raised clench-
ed fist is, and always has been,
the official Communist salute
since long before Attlee was born.
Attlee knows this he knew it
at the time he was giving that
salute to the Communist brigade,
he knows it now.
