Senate Group Ready
10 Ease Tax Burden
Of Students Parents
By J. A. O'Leor

The Senate Finance Commit
tee was reported today to have
approved in substance the
Houses action allowing students
to earn more than 5000 a year
and still be counted as depend
ents for tax purposes by their
parents.
Under existing law. if a child
earns more than $500 his par
ents lose the $500 exemption
for him as a dependent. The
pending bill provides that as
long as a child is under 10,
or in school, he may earn more
than $500 and still be counted
as a dependent. An estimated
1.3 million taxpayers would benz
eft from the change.
The Senate group also has ac-
cepted a House provision in.
creasing the limit on deductible
charitable contributions from 20
to 80 per cent, provided the addi-
tional 10 per cent is given to
religious or educational institu-
tions.
The exact language of these
and other provisions in the gen.
eral tax-revision bill are still
subject to change before the
measure is reported. but the
committee was said to have ac-
cepted them in principle.
AS the committee entered the
fourth day of closed sessions on
the 875-page bill. the secrecy
rule still applied to its decisions.
There were indications, however,
of growing sentiment among the
Senators for some modification
of the rule to let the public know
what is being decided from day
to day.
Senator George of Georgia,
ranking Democrat on the COM
mittee. and several of his COL
leagues urged yesterday that the
committee announce decisions as
it goes along, even though IN
some cases the action may be
subject to revision before the
bill is reported.
There was an understanding
that the secrecy rule may come
up for further discussion today
or Monday. The bill is the first
attempt in more than half a
century to rewrite the entire
revenue code, and 1t may take
the committee two more weeks
to get it ready for Senate action.

Senate Votes Today
On Move TO Stymie
Taft Law Revision
By the Assoeieted Pres,

President Eisenhower's labor

do-or-die Senate vote today,

fident they can push the admin

Hartley Act revision measure

be made by Senator Hill, DEM

Murray, Democrat, of Montana.

vote under debate limitation.
If the Democratic motion wins.
it would all but kill any chance
of changing the long-disputed
labor law this year.
Both Southern and Northern
Democrats appeared optimistic
their lines would hold. They out
number Republicans, 48-47. with
the other seat held by Senator
Morse. Independent, of Oregon.
Democrats were counting on
MorSe'S vote on this issue.
Leaders Are Confident.
Senator H. Alexander Smith,
Republican, of New Jersey. Labor
Committee chairman. said we're
not licked yet" But he refused
to predict the outcome.
Senator Kennedy. Democrat.
OF Massachusetts, said he is CON
fident" of a Democratic victory.
Northern Democrats said they
were dissatisfied with the COM
mittee bill. which substantially
carries out Gen. Eisenhower's
recommendations, because it
fails to correct what they call
anti-labor sections in the present
law.
Southern Democrats said the
bill as now written does not
contain enough restrictions on
labor union conduct nor give
the States enough control over
strikes. boycotts and picketing.
They expressed concern, too, over
an anti-discrimination amend
ment which Senator Lehman,
Democrat Liberal, of New York,
has promised to call up if he has
a chance.
Debate Limited.
The Senate has agreed to lim-
it debate on Senator Lehman's
amendment and all others, in

between proponents and oppon-
entS.
This debate limitation was des-
cribed by Southerners as one
reason they planned to give sub
stantial support to the recon-
initial motion. 1t would prevent
any f1libuster on Senator Leh-
mans amendment, designed to
forbid discrimination by an en-
ployer or union because of race.
creed or color. Southerners ira
ditionally use the weapon Of
filibuster, or unlimited debate,
to debate civil rights legislation.
Senator Smith predicted some
Southerners would Join Repub-
licans in voting against recon-
initial. But several Southern
Democrats who otherwise might
be most likely to vote with the
Republicans said privately they
had every intention of sticking
with their party on this issue.

(GB Strike Enters lis
Third Week With No
Apparent End In Siulli
No Meeting pIonned;
Peaceful Pieketing
Continues Ar PIonf

Peaceful picketing continues at
the main gates of the Caldwell
plant, Cleveland Graphite
Bronze Company, as the strike
now enters we'll into its third
week.
Apparently there is no indica-
ton of break pending, mas
much as there is no meeting
scheduled to iron out the differ
ences existing between the COM
pany and the union.
According TO Mr. Mat Fleming,
plant manager, the company's
offer of three cents per hourly
increase across the board" still
applies, in addition to an incen-
tive system affecting all Set-up
men and a five cent increase for
% set-up and operate men.
After the original seven-cent
offer was rejected by the COM
pany, the union demanded an
increase of 15-cents per hour for
all employees. According to a
member of the unions negotiat.
/ ing committee, the seven-cent
Increase pay demand is a pat
tern set-up by the CIO head
quarters for all their negotia-
tions.
Obviously collective bargain
ing in negotiating differences
has not in reality been applied
on a local level in any scheduled
meeting in an effort to reach an
agreement.
At first the company insisted
it was in no feasible position to
grant a pay increase, in view OF
the fact the Caldwell plant, since
its opening, has failed to earn
the company q profit on its in
vestment. In a last minute
reprieve to avert a strike, Mr.
Fleming offered a three-cent
hourly increase to all employees
plus other pay incentives.
! Standing pat" on their
original demand of seven-cents
the union committee voted to re-
| ject the company's offer, anc
ordered the strike without
offering counter proposal. The
union hiked the pay demands
to 15-cents.

Caldwell Council To
Hear End READING
OF Gas Ordinance
Successor To Emil
Barnett Moy Be
Appointed Tuesday

The second reading of the pro-
posed gas rate increase ordin-
ance offered by the Ohio Fuel
Gas Company will be a feature
of the organizational meeting of
the Caldwell council to be held
Tuesday evening, Jan. 4.
It is also expected that some
definite action will be taken by
Mayor Homer Johnson in re-
placing Councilman Emil Bar
nett, who now resides in Middle
burg and is employed out of
Beverly.
The Ohio Fuel Gas company is
recommending that the council
adopt a new ordinance to replace
that which expires in October
of 1855. They maintain that the
council will be able to get a
better rate of increase now than
il they wait until the present
ordinance expires and they have
to take what they can get.
Some council members can't
make up their mind which would
be better for the local consumers
to accept an increase now or
wait until later and see what
they can get.
1t is generally believed by
council as a whole that it woulc
be better to act now and accept
the proposed rate increase thar
to wait and go before the Public
Utilities commission. But as {
body, they cannot yet reach an
agreement.
Reorganization of the council
will also be held at this meeting

as the president.
