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.
In addition to the many bene
fits offered the youth of the na
tion in the field of electronics
and other trades In the Navv, the
sports program will aid in build
ing strong bodies to assist the
strong mind needed in the peace
time sailor. Trophies individual,
fleet and team are presented the
chamnions of the various sports.
Young men who are interested
in learning a trade, and being
able to follow their favorite sport
while so doing, will find this new
"ropram an enjoyable one. Kull
Information can be obtained at
the Navy recruitine office at the

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.
