Democrats Not
United On $20
Tax Slash Plan
WASHINGTON W-Sen. Holland
(D-Fla), says he will oppose the
$20-a-person income tax cut passed
by House Democrats.
"We Senate Democrats were not
consulted on the $20 reduction by
our colleagues in the House," he
said in a statement, "nor have we
held any party conference on it.
s0 e maller is not party Issue.",
uui punning ujj us puuMiui sig
nificance, a Democrat who asked
not to be named said he has no
doubt that a "campaign document!'
is being prepared as the minority
report of six Democrats on the
Senate Finance Committee who
supported the tax cut. He said it
will be used in the 1956 campaign.
Senators Byrd (D-Va) and George
(D-Ga) voted with seven Republi
cans on the committee tu knock
out the tax cut provision which
tne House had passed after a bitter
partisan battle. Byrd said last
! week at least 10 Senate Democrats
would support his stand on the
Senate floor, but he declined to
name them.
In addition to Holland, Sen.
Ellender (D-La) said during the
weekend he would oppose the cut
on the ground resulting inflation
might "result in our people actual
ly losing money in the long run."
Secretary of the Treasury Hum
phrey said he thinks there is
"good chance" the House will
hack down if the Senate defeats
the tax cut.
No date has yet been fixed for
the start of Senate debate on the
tax bill. It has been delayed, for
one thing, to await filing of the
Finance Committee's minority re
port.

Mystery Bleeder
Puzzles Doctors
CHICAGO I The top men of
several medical skills have joined
in the hope of finding a cure for
Peggy Lee Davis, pretty, 15
months-old mystery "bleeder."
The blue-eyed, auburn - haired
girl is suffering from a baffling
blood malady that has killed her
sister and afflicts her brother ind
mother.
Doctors at Presbyterian Hospi
tal have ruled out hemophilia. But
they can find no record in medical
history of a similar case. After
12 days of tests, they say only
that they have found several leads
which could turn out to be prom
ising. Deceptively, Peggy is the pic
lure of health and happiness in her
padded crib. The crib is padded
to protect her from cuts or scrat
ches that could start the dread
bleeding.
But the bleeding also can start
from no apparent cause. A nose
bleed of one day duration has
drained off as much as one-third
of the 25-pound girl's total body
blood capacity.
Peggy showed no signs of the
malady until she was 7 months
old.
However, a year and a half ago
Peggy's sister died of a massive
bowel hemmorrhage at the age of
17 months. And Peggy's 6-year-old
brother has had 53 transfusions to
replace blood that seeped into his
bowles, joints and muscles.
Doctors said Peggy's 26-year-old
mother, Mrs. Joan Davis of Lisco,
Neb., and Mrs. Davis' two sisters
suffer in lesser degree from the
same blood condition.

Italy Debate Ends
In Near Fight
ROME UR Senate debate on
the Paris accords for German re
armament broke up Saturday in a
wild uproar. It stopped just short
of a free-for-all fight.
Left and center senators hurled
threats and waved fists at each
other, but the Senate president
closed the session before any fists
actually landed.
The pandemonium ended the sec
ond week of debate on Western
European Union in the Senate. It
will resume Monday and probably
continue most o' the week before a
vote is reached.
