Morse Story (Continued from page two) reduction ... of the proper type. He agreed that taxes that are too high discourage business but de clared that the solution lies in the erasing of inequities in the tax structure and broadening the basis of taxation rather than removing millions of people from the tax roles. He said that although labor would not like it he must go on record as saying that labor's in sistence in another wage boost next spring would not be for the best interest of cither labor or the public. In a declaration directed to labo" leaders Morse stressed that fur ther wage demands will do nothing but further devalue the dollar and increase inflation. Favors Marshall Plan On the international issue Morse said he would go down the line with Vandenberg, who was praised most highly by the Oregonian, and hold the view that we cannot have long prosperity unless we recog nize that the last war was no foot ball game and that the cost will be with us for half a century. He declared that he favored the Marshall plan and would not agree with anything that would sabotage it. Morse said we must face the in ternational obligation from a point of self interest. He emphasized that we dare not walk out on Eur ope now, that our national security cannot risk it. Declaring that this is not a peace time economy Morse said that labor must offer something better than a plea to “remove re straints of trade’’ if domestic econ omy is to be achieved. Saying that the government must not go into the background and leave the prob lem up to business, Morse ad<?ed that he was not in favor of re turning to the drastic price con trols. What is needed, he said, is legis lation that can be used on any seg Vets May Sign Allowance Slips Through Friday The deadline for pre-regis'tered veterans to complete the process by returning to Emerald hall and signing the pledge part of their vet eran's card has been extended un til tomorrow, announced J. D. Kline, assistant registrar. Flood conditions which will prevent many off-campus veterans from coming to the campus today was given as the reason for the extension of the deadline. * It is necessary for the veteran to return to Emerald hall to sign this pledge card if his subsistence al lowance is to be continued. The veterans administration requires the University to notify it of the veterans who are specifically in school at the start of the term. Be cause some veterans pre-register and then do not return to school the pre-registration figures are not ac cepted by the VA, Kline declared. The assistant registrar explained that the signature on the pledge caid indicates the veteran’s pres ence in classes. All veterans who fail to sign the card must be re ported to the VA as not in attend ance, he said. Kline added that the VA would then drop tire veteran from its rolls and discontinue sub sistence allotments. It has been the policy of the VA to carry a man on its rolls only when it can be proven that he is attending classes. No regular attendance reports are registered of the University, Kline said, but failure to attend must be reported. In serious cases of non-attendance for classes the VA will remove a man from train ing, in minor cases they merely reduce the subsistence allowance, he added. ment of society that places itself above the common welfare. He de clared that this "gun behind the door" type of legislation for credit control, allocation, and rationing where needed will be passed within three months by those who now think the problem should be kept at the White House door.

Killman. pianist, and Jan et Shafer, violinist, both seniors in music, will present a joint recital Thursday at 8 p.m. in the school of music auditorium. The chamber music program fea turing three sonatas is perhaps the first of this type at the University in recent years. Beethoven’s "Spring" sonata, a Grieg sonata, and a sonata by Walter Piston completed in 1939, comprise the group. Of the last featured work the composer said, "Elements I have sought chiefly are clarity of form, simplicity and directness of style, and continuity of melodic expres sion. Above all, I have hoped to make music that players will want to play and that listeners will want to hear." Miss Shafer will be soloist with the University orchestra later this month in a Mozart violin concerto.
