Ike Doesn't Plan To Ask For Sales Tax WASHINGTON (UP) President Eisenhower said i today the administration does not intend to ask Con gress to levy a federal retail sales tax. He volunteered the information to a crowded news conference to quiet speculation on the subject. He said the Treasury has made a thorough study of the sales tax proposal and has concluded that, according to all logic, this field of taxation belongs to state and mun icipal governments. But Eiseithower did not rule out tfie possibility that the administra tion might ask Congress to approve a general manufacturers tax. He said excise taxes at the man ufacturers level have been levied for years and he did not know how the Treasury would re-assort ex cise taxes In Its new tax program now being formulated. WANTS FAIR BILL Eisenhower said the administra tion is trying to draft a tax pro gram that will be fair, just end raise the revenue that is needed for national defense and other gov ernmental functions.

(UP) Earl Warren is a man who has lived with law books, helped make laws or en force them for nearly 40 years. The tall, handsome Californian, 62-years-old, becomes the 14th man in history .o occupy the nation's highest Judicial position. Warren succeeds Fred M. Vinson of Kentucky, who died of a heart attack Sept. 8. Elsenhower announced the recess appointment at a news conference, his first formal meeting with re porters since July 22. The nomin ation will be sent to the Senate when Congress reconvenes in Janu ary. PRAISED 81 IKE Eisenhower told the crowded news conference he is confident Warren will make a great chief justice, and that he expects Warren in Wash ington for the opening next Mon day of the 1953-54 term of the high tribunal. The President said he had been thinking about Warren for the job since Vinson died. He said the reason he selected Warren was that he is a man of integrity, honesty, possessed of a middle-of-the-road philosophy and experienced in the law as well as the operation of government. After a secret face to face talk with Warren in California Sunday, Attorney General Herbert. Brown ell Jr. submitted his formal recom mendation for filling the vacant chief justiceship to the president Tuesday. ..■WfHMT SINCE CARBdBA.. Warren’s appointment martofw» first time • Republican chief execu tive hag named a man to the Su preme Court since President Hoover appointed Benjamin Cardoza of New York as associate justice in March. 1932. Mr. Elsenhower and Brownell were in consultation over the appoint ment ever since Chief Justice Fred M. Vinson died Sept 8. CONFIRMATION SURE Mr. Eisenhower will submit the California Republican's name to the Senate after Congress con venes in January. Republican lead en anticipate no difficulty in get ting confirmation! Warren was understood to have had some sort of conmitment from the Eisenhower administration be fore Vinson died. Presumably be was promised a court appointment when a vacancy occurred and on the strength of this announced he would not seek re-election as gov ernor. The new justice will face a dock et of some 300 petitions for review filed during the summer, to say nothing of 35 or 40 cases accepted last spring and ready for argument. Since the court grants review when only four Justices vote for It, War ren’s examination of all the pe titions would not necessarily be re quired at the outset.
