hearings. The measure, which
has been a perennial source of
debate in Congress, would au-
thorize the District Commission
ers to establish daylight time
next summer from the last Sum
day in April to the last Sunday
in September.
The bill to repeal the personal
property tax was supported dur
ing the public hearing by spokes-
men for the city government, the
bar association and organized
citizens.
The tax was branded nuis-
ance, unfair, unjust and difficult
to collect.
The subcommittee was told the
personal property tax amounts
to about $850,000 a year. But
1t was contended by Spokesmen
for the city government that
this loss could be recouped by
reorganizing the system of COL
lecting other taxes.
West Backs Repeal.
Supporting the tax repeal bill
were Corporation Counsel Ver-
non E. West. speaking for the
Commissioners; James L. Martin,
District finance officer and asses
sor; H. H. Walker Lewis of the
District Bar Association, Ben
jamin Striner of the Federation
OF Business Mems Associations
and the Northwest Council of
Citizens Associations and Lester
H. Steinem of the Federation of
Citizens Associations.
Support of the measure for
change in court procedure came
from Judge George D. Nelson of
Municipal Court, Mr.. West for
the Commissioners and Judge
Edith Cockerille of Juvenile
Court, by letter,

which could be made to Soviet
authorities.
But the point which United
States authorities made in this
connection was that ruthless
and slashing assault simply be-
cause an airplane has gotten a
little out Of line can only be ex-
planned under a very tough top
policy 1t is not, in the words
of one official, in the best ira
ditions of civilized conduct"
The belief here is, that the
policy of toughness certaily will
be continued and probably in
tensified in coming months. It
would keep Malenkov's outside
enemies engaged while he tried
to consolidate his internal posi-
ton; it might also tend to create
a state of crisis in which Rus
SLAMS potentially opposed to Ma
lenkov would hesitate to chal-
lenoe his power.
There is always danger Of
starting a chain of events lead
ing to great explosion. Officials,
however. do not appear to be-
lieve that the chances of a war
between Russia and the West
have been increased.

The first few months of
Georgi Malenkov's Red rule
seem certain to be filled with
crisis and tension as he strives
to consolidate his power over the
far flung Communist empire.
That conclusion emerged to-
day out of official study and
speculation over this week. S
shooting down by Red planes of
two allied aircraft flying over
Germany. .-....,
Authorities here were not at
all certain that the Soviets de-
liberately ordered these specific
incidents destruction of an
American jet patrol fighter and
a British four-engined bomber.
But they are convinced that the
tough attitude which these in
cidents reflect on the part of
the Soviet high command means
more trouble in the future.
Aside from diplomatic protests
it is not yet clear what the allied
powers intend to do.
The State Department was
ready to denounce and reject
as unfounded Czechoslovakia S
claim that the United States
fighter plane which was fired on
and shot down by Russian-made
MICS Tuesday had crossed from
the United States zone of Ger
many into Czechoslovakia.
1t was apparent that the pre-
else location of the British bomb
er shot down yesterday would
have lot to do with any protest

Soviet Attacks Laid
To Post-StaIin Jitters
Behind Iron Curtain
BY the Assoeiosed Press

LONDON, Mar. l3.- British
officials said today Soviet at
tacks on British and American
planes we're evidence of post
Stain jitters behind the Iron
Curtain.
Highly placed officials said
they believed the MIG fighter at
tack that cost Britain Lincoln
bomber and six lives near Ham
burg, Germany, yesterday was
due less to trigger-happiness on
the part of the MIG crews than
nervousness in higher echelons
of the Kremlin.
"Since the death of Stalin,"
one informant said. "the Com
munists have become very jumpy
indeed about vigilance around
their borders. Flyers have proba-
bly, been told there is greater
danger of attack from outside.
now that Stain is dead. and they
are taking it seriously"
Carried No Ammunition.
Britain protested to Soviet
authorities in Germany today
against what the official note
termed this deliberate end
brutal act of aggression involv-
ing murder"
A few hours later, an Air Min
istry statement said the bomber
carried no ammunition and was
flying without the breech-blocks
of it's machine guns.
These, the statement said, had
been left in England for servic-
ing when the plane took of for
the routine training trip that
ended in tragedy. The statement
replied to Soviet charges that
the Royal Air Force bomber
fired on its MIG pursuers.
Cannon Shell in Debris.
A Foreign Office spokesman
said investigators had found a
Russian cannon shell in debris
of the bomber, which fell in
British-controlled territory. Most
of the bomber's hulk plummeted
into a wood on the Soviet side
of the East German border.
Answering Russian charges
that the bomber had penetrated
Soviet-controlled territory, the
spokesman added:
"We have no reason to think
that this British aircraft had de-
waited from the corridor in any
material way. A warning would
have been fair enough. but out
RACES of this kind against an air.
craft which showed no sign of
aggression are objectionable.
IF the Russian airmen paid a
little less attention to gunnery
and a little more to navigation
these regrettable and deplorable
incidents would be less frequent"

it planes would continue to "f1y
as usual" over West Germany.
Raj commanders issued spe-
cial orders to all British flyers to
be especially alert" when flying
near the Soviet zone border. But
they said that flying operations
of British planes in Germany
will continue as usual. There
will be no cut down in training
flights over the British zone"
The Russians fired the first
diplomatic salvo at the British
here early today, handing Sir
Ivone note charging the Raj
plane violated Communist East
Germany's territory to a depth
of "a miles and fired first at two
intercepting Russian MICS which
ordered it to follow them to the
nearest Soviet air force field.
