we welcome the recommended
tions contained in the report
of the subcommittee. they do
not go far enough toward re-
moving the burdens that Sc
verly handicap the railroads
ability TO compete for freight
and passenger trafiic."
Commends Report
Mr.. Heineman commended
the report and went on:
I'm my opinion. the most
significant recommendation is
that which would enable the
railroads TO establish their
rates. The effect Of COM
pelling railroads to fix artifl-
cially high rates is TO injure
everyone; the railroads, be-
cause as a mass transportation
agency they require volume TO
work at their most efficient
level: the public, because any
thing that initiates transporta-
ton costs adds to the cost Of
what every one eats. drinks or
uses. The railroads are the
most efficient form Of freight
transportation known"
Mr.. jerks said the Smathers
report "looks pretty good to
me. 1t certainly will help a
great deal if we get it and l
think the prospects are good.
l think we have to convince
quite a few people in Congress
about the need for it."

Plan on Cars
BY J. A. O'LEARY
star stan Writer

A plan for ending the recess
sion In the automobile industry,
which Is a key 10 economic re-
covery. was outlined 10 a Senate
subcommittee today by Senator
Douglas. Democrat Of Illinois.
Calling for cooperation by
the Government. the manufac-
turers and the union, he pro-
posed that:
/. The Government cut the
excise tax on cars from 10 per
cent TO 2.5 per cent. provided
the car makers agree TO cut
prices 8 per cent.
2. The JAW reconsider some
OF its demands in current wage
negotiations with the automo-
bile companies.
s270 Saving on Car
Senator Douglas said his tax
price cut would knock $270 off
Of the cost Of a car selling for
$4,000. He said the 6 per cent
price cut would result in a l6
per cent increase in sales, and
added:
1T is not often that 8 will
get YOU l6. In fact. II would
not be inappropriate TO point
out that is for 6 are much bet
ter odds than one could get at
the Kentucky Derby last Sat-
urday, either on Tim Tam or
on Silky Sullivan.
Il cannot see how reasonable
men who understand their own
interests, as well as the very
able men who are the executives
Of the automobile industry.
could possibly resist such an
opportunity"
Senator Douglas recommen-
dation followed yesterdays ap-
proval by a Senate Commerce
subcommittee of a bill requiring
that factory price tags be put
on all new cars.
Renews Plea on Income Tax
Senator Douglas also renewed
his plea for a $50 cut in the
income tax for each individual,
and said this would further
stimulate the sale of automo-
biles, television sets and other
home appliances.
All of the tax cuts in the
Douglas plan would add up to

"Their views might be well

Lack Of cash rather than lack

"a little more spending

The Journal found almost all
had a hankering to buy one or
more major items. and there
was little evidence consumer
buying desires had been sat
urated" by a postwar spending
splurge as some economists
theorize.
FOregO Purchases
Despite this hankering. the
Journal reported. "only a few
Of those interviewed were ac-
tually planning to purchase
goods now or in the next couple

given reasons: Too high prices,
lack Of ready cash, and an un-
willingness, despite the many
buy-now drives, to dip into saw
ings or go into debt-even if
this spending might have some
beneficial effect on the Nations
economy"
The Journal quoted Leslie
Biebl, program director of Ra-
dio Station Wink in Cleveland
as saying. Personally I feel
one of the big causes of our
economic trouble right now is
that people have been pushed
into buying what they're not
financially ready for"
Mrs. Irene Goodman. San
Francisco secretary, told the
Journal she and her husband
had talked about buying a new

pairs, but nov we've decided
it's a good time to save. Prices
