SIX ROSEBUKG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG, OREGON, TUESDAY, APRIL 13, 1943. Millions More to Be Asked of U.S., MorgenthauSays WASHINGTON, April 13. (AP) America is responding with a flood of dollars, the treas ury reported today, to the great est appeal for funds In history the government's $13,000,000, 000 second war loan campaign. The drive was opened officially last night by Secretary Morgen- thau, but even before the secre taiy addressed a rally In New York reports began pouring Into the treasury Indicating a tremen dons public response. "This Is a people's war so all of the people ought to have a part In financing it," Morgenthau told the New York rally In urg Ing full participation by every one. Stressing the treasury's urgent need for funds, the nccrettnry warned that heavier financial sac rifices will be required of the people to meet the growing de mands of the war. "Ten per cent is no longer enough, he said, "we are ask ing everyone to buy extra bonds this month, even workers who are now participating In the pay roll savings plan." More Must Be Raised. Coincident with opening of the three-week campaign, the treas ury disclosed tentative plans to raise a total of $70,000,000,000 this year plans which will strike heavily at individual pocket' books. Morgenthau explained that the government expects to spend about $100,000,000,000 this year and that only $30,000,000,000 of this will be provided by taxes. That means, he said, that $70.- 000,000,000 must be borrowed, unless existing tax rates are re vised upward. In order to keep down infla-. tlonary forces, the treasury wants to get the major part of this money from non-banking sources at least $48,000,000,000. Of this amount the treasury has set j tentative quota of $25,000,000,000 to be obtained from individuals, $13,000,000,000 from corpora tions and $3,000,000,000 from in surance companies while the banks will ge expected to supply $22,000,000,000. To Touch Little Group. This means, say treasury offi cials, that every person receiving income above I he barest subsist ence level will have to be reach ed. The bulk of the $25,000,000, 000 expected from individuals must come, they say, from per sons earning from $1,000 to $5,000 because it is this erouii that will have three quarters of the year's current income alter taxes. The treasury estimates thai 1!),j00,000 persons with Incomes of $1,000 or less will have total Income this year afler payment oi laxes of $14,400,000,000. In the $1,000 to $3,000 wage level mere are 37,100,000 persons whose total Income after taxes Is esllmated at $1)7,900,000,000,-1' while the income of 5,200,000 Inr the 53,(HK) to $5,000 bracket is es timated at $21,000,000,000 after faxes.

The secretary had been asked to comment on a statement in Australia by General Blarney, commander In chief of allied ground forces there, that the Jap anese had massed 200,000 first line troops and a great air force r.orth of the island continent and could be expected to undertake an olfensive'a; any time.
