The news gut around and the meet an estimated 1848 depart ment deficit of $528,000,000. Donaldson said second and third class mail rates are "particularly inadequate." In a letter to House Speaker Sam Rayburn, Donaldson reported ihat Post Office operational costs ' havt climbed $800,000,000 since 1945. Salary raises of $(525,000,000 and Iransportation cost Increases of SI 00,000,000 account for the bulk at the growing deficit, ha said. The 1949 estimated deciflt is S2 1 7,000,000 abovt that for 1948, despite added revenue of $78,000, 000 from recent Increases in air .nail rates. His letter accompanied a draft -,f a proposed bill setting up new rates. Martin Says Mq New Taxes WASHINGTON (P) House Republican deader Martin pre dicted flatly today that Congress will not Increase taxes this year. He voiced doubt, too, that Presi dent Truman will get the new eco nomic controls he Is asking for. A tax reduction Is more likely than tax Increase, Martin said. He Is author of a bill proposing to out excise levies on such things as furs, luggage, jewelry, transportation, communications bck to their pre-war rates "If there Is any tax bill I be lieve It will be mine," he told ' reporters. Turning to economic controls, he said: "While I have not canvassed the situation. In view of the general economic situation, I do not be lieve It is likely that Congress will pass new controls." Mr. Truman has asked for standby price, wage and allocation controls, and power for the gov ernment to expand Industrial facilities. The congressional economic committee will have by next Mon day Its decision on what Congress should do about these requests. Dietrichs were swamped with telephone calls and telgrams of fering suggestions. "Just tell everyone he's going to be named Philbert when he's baptized next Sunday." Bomb Defense Plans Laid WASHINGTON (U.R) The Atomic Energy Commission told Congress Monday it is preparing detailed plans for the defense of the nation against atomic bomb attack. Commission Manager Carroll L. Wilson said the commission is preparing a detailed report on the best method of atomic defense. He said the commission is work ing In close cooperation with the national military establishment. Part of the plan Is to place per sonnel trained in the use of Gel ger counters at strategic points throughout the nation; These counters are used to detect radio activity. Wilson said there already is a stockpile of these Geiger counters at Oak Ridge, Tenn., scene of a major atomic energy plant. Wilson did not indicate when the report would be ready. Judge Warns Union Students I Sen. Paul Patterson, Hills- boro, denying that "the legis lature is under the dairy in dustry's thumb," declared the bill would cost Oregon s dairy industry $4,200,000 a year. Patterson said that during the war, consumption of oleomargar ine doubled, causing a serious de cline in the number of dairy cows. "We're asking that oleomargar ine go to the housewife for just what it is a substitute for but ter," Patterson said. Anything but Yellow "There is one natural trademark that nature gave to butter, which is it's color. We don't care if they color It blue, black, red, green or brown, but to color It yellow is fraud upon the public." He said that in Texas, colored! oleo sells for the same price as Funds Prepared To Fight Floods WASHINGTON (U.R) Steps began Monday to get a $25,000,000 fund from Congress to fight floods expected in the wake of the West's record winter. . - They coincided with House plans to rush through legislation making $44,000,000 in loan funds available for farmers and stock men who have suffered heavy losses in western blizzards.

Chavez (D-N Mex) said he would 'Poor Man's Butter ask the Senate Appropriations Committee for that amount at a hearing Wednesday. Army Engineers already have sought $22,500,000 for flood work, Chavez said the extra $2,500,000 would be for Columbia River flood damage repairs. Royal said "Operation Snow bound" to relieve the storm-crip pled areas already has cost the armed forces $5,000,000. But he said operations had been curtailed in Nebraska, South Dakota, Ari zona and Nevada and may be wound up altogether by March 1. Step-Up Operations New blizzards forced a step-up in operations in Idaho, Wyoming and North Dakota.
