"Tony" Shukle, Embdmer 24-Hour Ambulance Service Tax Cut Plans In Congress of Top Interest to Nation By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON. D. C. If there is one thing which every body hope.s to get out ot the new Congress nupre than anything else, it is a cut in tuxes. Statements by both President Truman and Secretary of the Treasury Snyder up to the end of the year were all In favor of keeping taxes up. Their idea has been that while prosperity is here tax rates should be kept hieh, to reduce the national debt. Republican maioritics in Con gress have other ideas. They have a campaign promise to cut taxes fast, 20 per cent across the board. Congressman Harold S. Knutsbn. the Wadena, Minn., newspaper Dublisher who is chairman of the House Ways and Means Commit tee, has given every assurance he will have a "quickie" tax-cut hill on the floor, ready for a vote by Monday. Jan. 27. His intention is to cut only individual income taxes. Corporations got their cut last year and won't get another till next year, he says. Knutsen says he will run his committee in the same nonpart isan way that the Democrats ran it under Chairman "Muley" Boh Houghton of North Carolina. Which means it won't be nonpart isan at all. Campaign Vow Cited With individual income taxes now bringing in $18 billion a year, a 20 per cent cut would mean $.16 billion. But it Is the GOP hope that this rate cut will so stimulate business that In comes will go still higher and revenues won't fall off a bit. The national debt now stands at S2(i9 billion, however, and ev en the Reoublicans are willing to appropriate $4 or S3 billion a year to cut it down. Also, the Republicans will have to meet this' year's deficit of S1.9 billion, to balance the budget another campaign promise. Total tax receipts are now about $40 billion a vear. Subtract from that figure the $3.6 billion tax cut. It leaves $36.4 billion for all government expenses. While Representative John Ta her of New York, chairman of the House Appropriations Com mittee, talks about holding ex penses to $29 billion, other Re publicans say the total must go to $32 billion. If they hold to eltheir figure, there will be room for further tax cuts. After the auickie tax hill Is out of the way. Congress can go into longer-range taxation proposals. Bv April 1, Knutson believes an adjustment can be made on pav-as-you-go income taxes withheld from pay checks and pay envel opes. Knutson doesn't want to eo Into graduating the quickie tax cut benefit the lower-income groups, if he can avoid it. He feels that a straight, across-the-board rut Ls easiest to handle at this time. Principal structural changes' in the income tax law that have been discussed in recent months are three: 1. Kliminatlon of double taxa tion on corporation dividends. 2. Permitting people like act ors, writers and athletes having high Income in one' year to av erage that Income over years of lower income. 3. The Surrey tax plan, which would permit husbands and wives to split family income for tax purposes. Competition in Navy's Athletics is Renewed Pre-war athletic program for Inter-fleet competition in all snorts has been renewed by the United States Navy. This new program offers Navy athletes a chance to compete for either Indi vidual or team championship trophies In the Navy.

Ranch Gate Order Frees Henry Denn Henry Denn, Camas Valley rancher, was in, then out, of the ' county jail last week for con-. tempt of court. In alleged vlola i.on of a restraining order issued b- Circuit Judge Carl E. Wim-. berly last year, Denn was or- dered held without bail until he had removed the barrier and j locks from a gate on a bridge j crossing Holmes Creek, on his , ranch. Mr. and Mrs. Claude A. Baum, plaintiffs, use the bridge and road crossing the Denn property to reach their own ranch. The , gate, however, often has blocked their entrance. Judge Wimberlv ordered Denn released from custody, on condi tion he erect a gate at the west end of the bridge which "shall be swung plumb and of such con struction and materials that It may be easily oened and closed by a woman of medium height and weight." The Baums, in turn, were or dered to close the gate each time they go through. If they do not. I pe resu aniiiig 01 tier aKMiii ' lxnn Is to be revoked. SULLIVAN'S CAFE Open Tuesday. Jan. 14th L. E.
