Another cause for astonishment are the cases of much hair on the face and none on the head. Why couldn’t that be transposed? But we suppose that do not, of course. But, regardless of what some of the airlines might have for wanting th confusion between subsidies and payments, there are none that Congress should consider important. The distinction will help make the Post Office more ef- ficient. It will also work for clarification in public policy toward subsidizing airlines. Some need sub- sidies. But the subsidies should always be plainl marked as such, and they should be given in a way that encourages the utmost efficicency in the sub- wouldn’t do either!

This was the first discovery of rubber, which then became the great industry of Brazil and other Latin American countries. Ghost Rubber City Today, however, Manaos, the rub- ber capital of Latin America, has become a ghost city—after a Brit- isher smuggled seeds of the rub- ber plant to Ceylon. Gradually the British-Dutch rub- ber cartel built up its markets in the U.S.A, and once they attained a monopoly position, they put the price squeeze on the American con- sumer. Despite the vigorous protests of Charles Evans Hughes when Se- cretary of State, we paid what the Asiatic rubber cartel wanted us and *paid through the nose. After Pearl Harbor we began frantically to encourage our good neighbors in Latin America to grow rubber again. Brazil, Mexico, Ec- uador, Costa Rico, Venezuela, Sal- vador, Nicaragua, Haiti, Honduras all were urged to grow rubber, re- gardless of cost. Loud were the cries also: “This will never hap- pen again.” However, it is happening again. In October 1947 American delegates at the Geneva economic confer- ence agreed to give up about two- thirds of the American rubber mar- ket to Asiatic rubber, chiefly Brit- ish controlled. This meant two things: 1. The complete collapse new rubber industry we couraged in Latin Americ 2. The closing of various synthetic rubber plants in the U.S.A. Some of these plants, havingz been closed, later were sold at bargain.rate prices by surplus property adminis- trator Jess Larson, who thought, perhaps correctly, that he was merely following national policy. Meanwhile, though we are much better off when it comes to syn- thetic rubber, we would have to have rubber rationing all over again —if war came. Meanwhile also, Communism has been growing at our own front Latin-American door—because -of unemployment and curtaiied econ- omy. l the en- of ad Helping GI's Senator “Long Tom” Connally of Texas, in addition to helping steer. U. S. foreign policy, is never too busy to fight for the little fellow. He is now about to win an impx ant financial victory for American doughboys in Korea. On October 21, Senator Connally spotted an item in the Washington Merry-Go-Round which read: “Under the current Army pay system. the real heroes in the Kor- ean war are drawing the least pay. They don’t even get a fair share of the glory when the publicity and medals are dished out. “These unsung heroes are in- fantrymen, who form the Army’s battering ram, but who are not paid as much as the technical men and pencil pushers behind the lines. “It used to be that infantrymEn‘ | could collect $10 extra each month for combat work. If they wore the combat infantryman’s badge, it was good for a $10 monthly bon- us. However, even this has been taken away from them in Korea.” Senator Connally clipped the col- umn and sent it to the Army, to- ['géther with a letter wanting to; know why combat men were being discriminated against. He has now received a letter from the Army indicating that it would urge a $50 | bonus monthly for combat enlisted men, with $100 a month for officers. What the Army told Senator Connally in summary follows: “The Department of the Army, _recognizes the plight of the infant. i ‘ryman who in past wars and in the Korean operation have borne the brunt of the fighting. We intend to do everything possible to give' the deserved recognition and com- pensation to those combat fighters upon whom the success of all our military efforts ultimately depends. “From the standpoint of extra compensation for the combat fight- er, the Army has prepared and sub- mitted to the Department of De- ifense a proposal to ask Congress for | | ! ‘bat duty in Korea. The Department :of Defense has indicated consid- erable interest and we anticipate BISHOP JOHN ZLOBIN ENROUTE T0 BISHOPS CONFERENCE IN M. Y.

The White House since then has wished that it had followed his advice, Excess-profits Loopholes The House Ways ana Means com~ doors to write a stiff clause in the excess-profits-tax bill to prevent big corporations from “squander- ing” profits as a means of reduc- ing tax payments. However, legitimate business ex- penses will be deductible under a formula proposed by Rep. Herman Eberharter if Pennsylvania whereby expenditures for hotel and travel, advertising and entertainment, will be governed by the the amounts spent for these purposes from 1946 through 1949, In other words, if a corporation spent $100,000 annually for adver- ] tising during the 1946-49 period it could deduct no more than that from its excess-profits return. Al- lowances will ke made, however, for shifts from newspaper to cost- lier radio advertising. “I was disgusted by some of the tricks used by corporations to es- cape taxes when we had an excess- profits tax during the last war” | GOP Congressman Carl Curtis of Nebraska told his colleagues. “One company sent me expensive broc ures that had nothing to do with, promoting sales of its product. “All that costly paper went into the wastebasket at a time when we were up against a war shortage of {paper. But the company could de- duct this useless expense.” “Another racket by these big fellows is renting hotel rooms the | year round, whether they are used |or not,” objected Michigan Demo- !crat John Dingell, gadfly of the |large corporations. “Some of these big outfits even rent hotel suites on a yearly basis for ouasloml‘ coecktail parties for Cungressmcn"l complete the meeting.
