House Speaker Martin made
plain after a conference with
President Eisenhower today that
it is up to the Senate to soften
the blow Of a House bill to cut
excise taxes by almost 81 billion
If the blow is to be softened
at all.
Mr.. Martin said the President
feels the House bill goes a little
too far" but he said the Admin
istration does not plan to make
any attempt to change 1t In the
House. Instead. the hope is to
reduce the tax revenue loss in
the Senate "if they can"

conference of legislative leaders.
told reporters it would be pre-
mature to say whether any
changes would be made by the
Senate until after the Senate
Finance Committee has had a
chance to study the measure as
it comes from the House.
The House on Wednesday will
take I'D the bill to cut many ex-
else taxes by 1912 million. effec-
tive April /. but at the same time
continue other excise rates be-
yond that date and thus retain
81. O70 ,O00. 900 in revenue for the
Treasury.
Although the administration
wanted all excise levies con-
tinued at present rates. Mr..
Martin and Majority Leader
Halleck are ready to push the
neutralizing bill through the
House. The revenue gained by
extending existing rates on
liquor. tobacco, automobiles and
gasoline is largely cancelled out
by the new cuts in other excuses
on furs. jewelry. light bulbs.
Photographic equipment, admis-
sions. transportation. telephone
and telegraph communications.
Some Rates Cut in House.
The House cut some excise
rates from 20 to 10 per cent. and
one suggestion has been that the
Senate settle for Is per cent.
Even if this fails, leaders believe
the President will sign the House
bill because he stands to lose al
most the same amount Of revenue
whether he signs or vetoes the
measure.

Mr.. Hollander said, however.

Associated Press Financial Writer
NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-The Ma
tion's railroads bowled along to
record gross revenues in 1858
and flashed hints of their chang
ing future on the American
scene.
Railroad net income doomed
nine per cent above 1852, ap-
preaching the 1902 million all
time net high of 1942.
The rails scaled new crests in
operating efficiency. This re-
suited directly from the SPEND
ing of 50 billion since World
War II on new equipment and
facilities.
The outlook for 1854 was
good, anyway, as the varying
forecasts for the country's busi-
ness as a whole; for the rail-
roads income depends on that.
Appearance Changing.
The very appearance Of the
railroads was changing swiftly.
Diesels. continuing to replace
steam power, took over 70 per
cent of the service. Streamlin-
ers and vision-emphasizing dome
cars increased in number. Mod
ern steel freight cars appeared
as old freight cars disappeared.
New electronic equipment speed
ed traffic tasks.
The railroads continued to
smarten-up their merchandising
with group economy fares. fam
ily-plan tickets, bargain round
trips for suburbanites. charge
plate credit cards and other
gimmicks.
But while railroad brains and
railroad imagination kept busily
at work, some Of the old prob
lens hung stubbornly on. re-
sisting change.
Paradoxically, while income
rose there was q drop Of nearly
seven per cent in passenger
traffic and revenues. Freight
car loadings for the year were
only slightly above 1852 despite
the eight-week steel strike that
year.
William T. Farley. president
Of the Association Of American
Railroads. called it significant
that in order nearly to match
1952's net income the railroads
had to take in an additional So
billion of gross revenue.
Return Of 4.23 Per Cent.
He reported a return Of 4.23
per cent on the railroads net in

Major Gain in Sets,
Dawn Of Color Give
Radio-N Rosy Year
By Wayne Oliver
Assoeiosed Press Finoneicl Writer

NEW YORK. The year 1858
brought the dawn of color to
te'evision, along with a trebling
of stations and an increase of
6.5 million sets in use.
Despite TV competition, radio
had what may have been its
largest year in gross volume Of
business. with increases in local
and spot commercials offsetting
declines in network revenue.
The coming year held probably
a roster outlook for viewers and
listeners than for broadcasters
and set makers.
The TV viewer, for instance,
could look forward to further
improvements in programs, a
new black and white set at the
best price yet if he needed one,
and possibly a color set late in
the year if he should be willing
to pay $3.50 to $1.500 for a IA
inch model on which he could
get five or six programs a week
in color.
TV stations and networks, on
the other hand, faced the te-
dious and expensive problem Of
equipping for color and starting
to produce the more expensive
color programs. Manufacturers
had the task Of trying to sus-
tain sales of black and white
sets. on which the bulk Of their
business will depend for the next
few years, while tooling up for
production of extremely complex
and expensive color models.
But formal approval of color
standards by the Federal Com
municationS Commission on De-
cember II. to take effect January
%, brought a prompt start by set
makers on color models. They
varied widely on probable pro-
duction for the coming year, es-
Inmates ranging from $4,000 to
100000 color sets-but in any
event hardly more than enough
to provide demonstration sam
piles around the country.

In Net; See Good Year Ahead

lion. up from last years return
! Of 4.16 per cent and about the
same as In the high postwar
years of 1948 and 1852.
Mr.. Farley put the, 1868 gross
revenues at $10.746. 100000. an
increase of one and one-half per
cent over 1852.
He added that this was offset
somewhat by record operating
expenses Of $8.1 billion and tax
payments to all Government
levels Of $1.3 billion which set
a. new record for a peacetime
year.
Railroad spokesmen continued
to fight the is per cent tax on
passenger tickets and the three
per cent tax on freight charges,
arguing that these were wartime
measures designed to discourage
use of the railroads by civilians.
In this aim. they said. the Gov
ernment is still succeeding all
too well.
The railroads spent more than
$1.2 billion In 1853 on capital
improvements - the sixth sue
cessive year they topped the bill
lion dollar mark for that pur-
pose.
1000 Locomotives Bought.
More than 1000 new locomo-
tive units were acquired in 1858,
most of them diesel-electrics.
Still retreating into the future,
however. was the goal set by the
Government and Glass rail-
roads in 1860 to build up the Ma
tion's freight Car, fleet to 1885,
900 units by December 81. 1854.
G. Metzman, chairman Of the
American Railway Car Institute.
reported that $1,000 cars were
delivered to the railroads in 1858
but an estimated $4,000 were re-
tired. leaving a net gain Of only
1900 cars.

the case can be expected by the
end of May. Mr.. Haynes could
appeal an adverse ruling to the
Federal courts.
The Justice Department or
