It may be that in the name of justice or some- thing else, Congress or the States will eventually take action to make available in all States the tax I)m.(*{n\ of an even division of family income between spouses. Congress deliberately chose not to write such a pro- vision into the bill just vetoed. Therefore Secretary Snyder cannot for a moment have believed that the subject was new to Congress. What motives he or his er. ing up the topic on the day after the veto may be left to mystery story fans to discover. In any event, he cannot have seriously supposed that this straight- faced production of four unindo: , unrecommended remedies would persuade anybody that the Truman Administration is in favor of tax reduction. ity Here It Comes! 1411 (Cincinnati Enquirer) Here what comes? Surprise! are advancing an average of $155 to $165 a ton. It's the biggest single price increase in the retail quotations on coal without our reccllection. Next winter it will constitute a real hardship among low- income coal users, since coal wasn’t cheap to begin with. The impact upon utility rates is unpredictable, but it is bound to have an ultimate effect upon them too. Yes, it's n a very stiff bill you will have to pay for John L. Lewis having gotten his way again-—in fact having gotten his entire way. The sole consolation is the hope--and it is little more than a hope that this time Lewis will honor the contract he signed and a the United Mine Workers will give an honest day’s production throughout the term of the contract. Mind- n- s ful of Lewis's record—and mindful of how his appetite | grows with each feeding—we will need some vincing before we believe anybody will benefit by surrender except Lewis and his cohorts. con- ns the 6 Ives “Crime’ (Washington Post) From New York comes the news of the establish- ment of an AFL-CIO unity committee on a State he ad | | basis aimed at unseating Senator Irving M. Ives in T-11962. Senator Ives' “crime” consists of his vote for the Taft-Hartley Act. Forgotten are Senator Ives great services in behalf of labor, organized and un- organized, in the State of New York and his unweary- ;- | ing campaign in the Senate against repressive amend- ments to the Taft-Hartley bill. A freshman Senator, Mr. Ives has shown public spirit, progressiveness and | zeal. His record so far warrants great expectations of his public career, especially in making changes |and corrections in the new legislation, as provided for in the setting up in the statute of a point Con- gressional committee. This watchdog committee wa:s an innovation n the statute of great imvortance.

Well, you might as well know—YOU will pay the bill.
