Tax Holes
Draw Fire
By JACK RUTLEDGE
WASHINGTON I Present tax ,
loopholes and a proposed peace
time tax celling were under Con-1
gressional fire Monday for what
some lawmakers viewed as a ten
dency to sock the poor and help
the rich.
Sen. Humphrey (D.-Mlnn., said
existing tax loopholes cost the gov
ernment more than 4 '4 billion dol
lars a year, and benefit almost en
tirely those with incomes above
(10,000 annually.
Staffs of two Congressional com
mittees said a proposed 25 per cent I
peacetime federal Income tax cell
ing, already endorsed by some !
states and under study by Cnn-
gress, would "tend to shift the ir.di- j
vldual tax burden from the rich to
the poor."
Humphrey's views were g'.veri In !
a study published by the Public I
Affairs Institute, which describes!
itself as a non-political organiza- j
tion designed to air facts about
public issues.
Humphrey, who sought unsuc
cessfully last fall to amend the 5 1.
billion dollar tax Increase bill, said !
writing of tax laws these days has
come to resemble ,the "log-rolling
and pork barrel tactics of spc-1
clal interests. I
He said "enormous handouts" go
to "high Income recipients, ' and
outlined what he said were the six
principal loopholes and the
amounts they cost the Treasur" In
present tax laws.
Two of the major loopholes"
were Income splitting and percent
age depletion allowances, he said.
Income splitting was enacted in
1948 to benefit married couples, but
Humphrey, said only 3 per, cent of
Uie 'beneflK went to -.ouiJles with
annual incomes below i6,u00.
Cattle Imports from
Canada are Stopped
WASHINGTON W The Agri
culture Department Monday or
dered an Immediate halt to vir
tually all Imports of livestock and
meats from Canada because of an
outbreak of hoof-and-mouth disease
in Saskatchewan.
Dr. B. T. Slmms, chief of the
Bureau of Animal Industry, said
Imports have been running to well
over 100 million pounds of meat a
year and about 360.000 head of cat
tle, swine and sheep.
Hoof-and-mouth disease Is easM;
spread and is one of the most
feared of all live stock ailments.
In 1946. an outbreak occurred In
Mexico and virtually all cattle and
meat imports from that country
have been shut off since then.
The United States has been help
ing Mexico combat the outbreak
and has spent 122 million dollars
in the fight.
' Dr. Simms said his bureau can
not give Canada extensive scientif
ic or other help without an act of
Congress.
But he said that on a moderate
scale, and until Congress -'.ecidos
whether such a law shall be en
acted, this country will co-operate
as much as possible.
Inspectors all along the Canadi
an U.S. border were ordered to
stop shipments of cattle, sheep,
goats, and hogs immediately as
well as shipments of fresh and
frozen products from such animals.
Dr. Slmms said he thought all
shipments would be stopped by
Monday night.
Asked when the embargo on Ca
nadian Imports might end, he
said there is no way of telling;
Uiat it depends on how quickly the
outbreak can be put under con
trol. Other Department officials said
that cutting off Canadian n-eat
would not seriously affect supplies
for U.S. consumers.
While Imports from Canada are
substantial, they pointed out that
they amount to only about ono
pound of meat year for each U.S.
consumer.
Giving background on the situa
tion In Canada, Dr. "Mtnnw said
suspected cases of hoof-and-mouth
disease had been reported from 22
farms near the city of R;;;inn, Sas

Senator Taft of Ohio has told

chips are down at the Chicago
convention.
Taft would not comment, but
friends say he Isn't worried about
reports MacArthur might be think
ing of himself as a possible nom-
; inee if a deadlock develops be-
tween Taft and Gen. Dwlght D.
! Elsenhower,
I Evidence of Taft's confidence in
; MacArthur was seen 8unday when
he said on a television program he
favored the general addressing the
convention. If he does t Taft added,
he probably would be the keynote
speaker.
But he sidestepped a direct ans

MacArthur head of the Joint chiefs

Taft's supporters regard as sig

Senator Duff (R-Pa., an ardent

he didn't believe any republican

BEAT OFF THREAT
President Truman's friends were
reported looking around for a way
to beat off what some of them
now regard as a threat of victory
by Senator Kefauver of Tennessee
in the March 11 New Hampshire
primary.
One close friend is reported to
be "deeply concerned" over the
outcome, and hopes something can
be done to buck things up for Mr.
Truman there.
Senator Robert S. Kerr of Okla
homa loomed larger as a Demo
cratic candidate if Truman
doesn't run. He has promise of
powerful Midwestern and Southern
support.
More evidence of this came Sun

would support Kerr If Truman

Trio Gets
To McCloud
By WALLACE MYERS
Three dog-tired and ravenously
hungry young Air Force men
trudged out of the snow-drifted for
est Into McCloud yesterday morn.
Ing to end a widespread air-ground
search for a small plane with four
men aboard missing since Friday
morning.
The fourth man, Cpl. James
Sims, stayed with the plane that
had made an emergency landing
in mountainous country near tow

panions left the downed plane on
foot early Saturday morning to trv
and find aid. Sims wasn't feeling
well enough to fight the five-foot
snowdrifts on foot.
Soon after the walking trio
reached McCloud yesterday, a ski
equipped plane successfully ac
complished a perilous rescue flight
to the emergency landing scene

Sims was rescued bv Pilot Vav

It would have been dangerous
for the light-powered rescue plane
to try a takeoff carrying three
men so Pallette stayed on the
mountain and Joyner brought Sims
out.
A short while later, Scholer flew

The four young Guardsmen,
with three-day passes, decided to
charter a private -plane and fly
home to Sacramento for visits. Pal

was the pilot. The plane was a
Cessna-170, demonstrator with , no
radio equipment.
En route, the quartet stopped at
Redmond, refueled and took off
from there for Sacramento at 6:12
Friday morning. They were not
heard from again until the three
walked into McCloud yesterday
