Tax-Boosting
Bill Reached
Congress Compromise
Tosses Out Withholding
Levy On Corporations
WASHINGTON Clt A com-
Eromise $4,700,000,000 tax-boosting
ill was approved Wednesday by
a senate-house conference tin-mittee.
This opened the way for Con
gress to send the bill to President
Truman by Friday night and fori
Congress to recess this weekend I
until after the November elections.
The conferees approved the com
promise by breaking a deadlock I
.through this action:
1 1. They threw out a 10 percent i
withholding levy on corporation di
vidends which they had approved
only Tuesday. This was intended
to collect about SWO.OuO.OOO a year
from persons who fail to pay in
come taxes on the dividends they
receive.
2. They eliminated a controver
sial provision in the bill, inserted
by the Senate, dealing with the
taxation of family business part
nerships. Some House conferees
had contended the Senate provision
would open the way for some per
sons to make business partners
of their minor children and
thereby reduce their income taxes.

Communist Curb Bill
Punishment

To Be Sterner
Majority Vote For
Measure Assures Death
For Threatened Veto
WASHINGTON A bill
calling for strict federal hobbles
on Communists, including whole
sale internment of dangerous Reds
in wartime, went to an uncertain
fate at the White House today.
The President had an opportun
ity at his news conference today
to give his views on the bill.
Senate and House passed the
measure uy laiiusuuc- v a
Wednfsd ,y:well ,wl lh,t Presi
rf Tnl', m,v ., it nmmnilv
dent Truman may veto it promptly.
Backers of the measure claimed
they could command plenty of
votes to override him if he did.
Barring any big switch in sen
timent, the figures bore them out.
The senate vote was SI to 7, the
ine
house vote 312 to 20 - both far
jn exceM of tne two-thirds major-
nepded to override a veto.
The president had said he would
n't sign earlier versions of the bill.
In bitter senate and house de
bates, foes of the bill condemned
it as a menace to freedom which
takes its cur from the very total
itarianism against which it is
aimed, and which wouldn't really
hurt the Communists.
The Republicans and Democrats
who backed it shouted "nonsense"
and "misrepresentation." Senator
Mundt (R-SD) called the measure
"a second declaration of indepen
dence." The bill carries these major pro
visions: 1. Compulsory registration of
Communists, Communist organiza
tions, and Communist front groups.
Officers of Communist front
groups, but not rank and file mem
hera also would be retfistered.
! 2 Anihnritv in lime nf war In
vasion or insurrection for intern
ment of persons deemed to be po
tential spies and saboteurs
3. A prohibition against Commun
ists' holding government jobs or
working in defense plants, trans
portation facilities, or defense lab
oratories. 4. Sterner punishment of spies
and saboteurs, and extension from
three to 10 years of the time in
which prosecution could be started
in espionage cases.
The bill declares Communists in
America are "awaiting and seek
ing the moment ... the overthrow
of the government of the United
States by force and violence may
seem possible."
A clue to the President's inten
tions may have been given in a
speech to the American Bar asso-
.!.iT.W,'?.tU Si1.AU2I'
new General McGrath. He de
nounced the measure as evidence
of "public hysteria."
The Bar association's assembly
ignored the attorney general's rec
ommendations and endorsed the
bill.

Plans Being Madt To
Meet It, Truman Says;
Blast At Taft Okayed
WASHINGTON (P Presi
dent Truman said today he is con
cerned about the high cost of liv
ing and he is working on plans to
meet it
He told a news conference he
will act as speedily as possible but
is trying to avoid the mistakes of
the last World war.
The President said his adminis
tration does not want the nation
to go through the travail of the
last price control period when n
had to follow the road of trial and
error.
Mr. Truman was asked about
wages not going up and prices ris
ing fast. He said he agreed this
was so and he is working on, a
plan.
Commenting on a statement
made by Gov. Chester Bowles of
Connecticut, former OPA adminis
trator favoring selective price con
trols, the President said that ia
being discussed but no decision
has been reached.
Mr. Truman endorsed the at
tack by his special assistant, Aver
ell Harriman, on Senator Taft (R
Ohio). In i speech before the AKL
convention in Houston, Tex., Har
riman accused Taft of furthering
"the designs of the kremlin" by
his voting record on foreign pol
icy. Mr. Truman said the Taft rec
ord speaks for itself.
When a reporter asked whether
he knew of many Democratic sen
ators whose records equalled or
surpassed Taft'i, the President re
plied very few end added:
There are more Republicans who
voted right than Democrats who
voted wrong, so the country still
has a bi-partisan foreign policy.
Speaks For Marshall
Mr. Truman was asked at the
outset today to comment on Gen.
George C- Marshall's testimony
before the senate armed services
committee. A reporter said Mar
shall disclaimed responsibility for
this government's China policy in
1946 when he visited China on a
special mission.
Mr. Truman replied that General
Marshall at the time waa not sec
retary of state, but a special en
voy for him. He added that Mar
shall, sworn in today as the new
secretary of defense, had writvn
instructions for him when he went
to China.
Asked what U. S. policy will be
on whether to go beyond the 38th
parallel in Korea in cleaning up
Korean Communists, the Presi
dent said that is a question for the
United Nations since the forces op
