Excess Profits Tax Cats Support Of One Group -* While big business generally is behind the move to abolish the J>resent excess profits tax, con trary to the expressed desire of President Eisenhower, members of the American Retail Federation, made up of 58 state and national retail associations, have notified the President that they are in favor of an extension of the tax, in view of the President's program of "a balanced budget in 1955" WEDDING CAKES BIRTHDAY CAKES \ and PARTY CAKES A Beautifully Decorated | Made \V illi All Butler Call Mi>. R. H. Cluvion Dial 2173 Congress Plans To Quit Jnly 31 -®v BY STANLEY JAMES Washington Carre* |*t*i*«lM*t Washington. — Senator Robert A. Tuft of Ohio, big boss of St-n ate Republicans, believes Con gress can go home by its “target date" of July 31st if members buckle down to work. The Majority Leader still cracks the- whip from the driver's seat of the Republican buggy, al though his illness has forced him to hand over the reins to young Senatoi William Knowland of California So, it Taft says “ad journment July 31st,” it goes. He said this—along with sever al other things — at a private luncheon for a group of news paper reporters in the Senate the other day. The reporters, includ ing some who have been critical of Taft's opinions, agreed they had to admire his courageous fight against ill health. Taft has a painful hip ailment culled a “lesion.” This could be anemia, as some reports have it. or a born- condition, or something worse. At any rate, the Senator’s face looks pule, thin and drawn, and he is not allowed to travel—• except for hospital treatments Taft said these orders prevent him from going to Ireland to see his son, William Howard Taft HI who is the U. S. Ambassador there. Reporters asked if the adminis tration would get the six-months extension of the excess profits tax, requested by President Eis enhower. Taft replied that a lot depends upon Rep. Daniel Reed, of New York, chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, who has refused to allow a vote on the bill. “Could Mr. Reed be called “Mu ley?” asked one reporter, recall ing that this was the nickname Jot his predecessor as chairman. Rep. Robert L Houghton of North Carolina, who was as stubborn as Reed and older. "There is something about be ing chairman of the Ways and Meudis Committee at seventy-five that makes a man “muley,” Taft cracked back, with his old-time sardonic smile. Then someone asked what Tail thought of the many harmony luncheons and breakfasts ''fke“, is huving at the White House. The Senator, whose long - flaming presidential ambitions were washed out by the General in the Republican convention lust year, replied that he couldn’t see much use in them. “Usually, it’s a pretty hetero geneous group.” he said. “You can’t accomplish much that way.” FOR TOP MARKET PRICES Sell Your Hogs Now To WILLIAMSTON PACKING CO.

C. 1113, Bethaven Internal Russia Still A Mystery To U. S. Official ! K<*pr**s(*nlalivfs Of Three (»m eruim-nl* Meet In Bermuda July 8 -* WASHINGTON, D. C.—The de velopment picture inside Russia is still a mystery to U. S. govern ment officials. For some time it has been speculated that Premier Georgi Malenkov is up to his neck in the battle for personal power inside the Kreflin—with at least two deputies (Beria and Mo rotov) and may be others But no fireworks have erupted as yet. Meanwhile strange sounds con tinue to come out of Moscow. The latest eye-opener was an an announcement that foreigners would once again be allowed some freedom of travel in Russia. While it may be nothing but peace pro paganda, there are some who think the relaxations inside the Soviet Union, since Stalin's death, are hopeful signs. But it is hard to see where Mal enkov is headed. He is not publi cized to the extent Stalin was. In fact, since the first weeks of his reign, he has actually been heard from little. Is he the man be hind the apparent relaxing of the cold war, or is it someone else behind the scenes? The answer isn’t clear. But Malenkov’s past may give a hint of things to come. The pug gy Georgian is a stay-at-home Russian. Unlike Molotov, and some uf the other leaders, he has never set eyes upon the outside world, is also suspicious, and thor oughly anti-Western. He might not be as inclined toward interna tionalist ventures as some, per haps wants- time to improve con ditions inside Russia before em barking on foreign schemes. At least that is one theory. Those who believe in it say Malenkov wants to improve eco nomic condtions in Russia as a first step. He wants more abun dant food suplies, clothing, hous ing, and further industralization before pushing the West into a war He may also need time to attempt to win absolute power— if associates have not already won the upper hand from him. Whatever the reason or reasons, and whoever pulls the wires in side the Kremlin walls, the pic ture developing is confusing in Washington and U. S. ofieials don't know what to expect next The current belief in many capital quarters is that Russia wants a Big Four meeting. Yet U. S. officials have consistently denied that the July 8th Big Three gathering in Bermuda was a forerunner of such a meet The British, and Winston Churchill are in favor of a get-together with the Russians on the ground that the new regime may have a dif ferent attitude than did that of Uncle Joe Stalin. Despite U. S. insistence that no Big Four meeting is planned or j programmed, one could easily re siult from the Bermuda meeting. President Eisenhower is not like ly to flatly refuse such a parley if both his British and French al lies press vigorously for it. Chur chill takes the position that noth- ! ing can be lost in such a meet-. me, and the French have shown a desire to get together with the Communists in Indo-China. Whether they can acomplish such an aim is problematical, but ap parently they are eager to try. Of course, if anythng like a world agreement on the status-, quo could be achieved by a Big' Four meeting, it would be a great victory for free nations the world over. Washington, however, is very skeptical of any such agree ment with international Com munism—even thought the thought of it is very appealing. General Mark Clark’s recent. statement explaining why U. N. (non-South Korean) troops were not sent to prisoner-of-war com-' pounds in south Korea before President Iyngman ordered a mass break-out of over 27,008 former Communists was an ac curate summary of the circum stances involved. Claik. pointed out that Rhee had peronaWy guar anteed hinr. that he would take no such sudden action. Clark also called attention to the fact that Rhee had reaffirmed his allegiance to the U. N. Com mand in South Korea only recent ly. But he admitted there had been warnings that Rhee might do just what he did. Clark says to have sent U. S. troops to prison er-of-war compounds manned by South Korean guards after Rhee's promise would have stirred up trouble and bitter animosity and he is probably correct. in view of Rhee’s double-cross however, it is not likely tltat the U. N. Command will be caught with its guard down, holding only a broken promise, in the future. U. S. airborne troops began mov ing into Korea from Japan a few days-after the Rhee double-cross, presumably to be available for prisoner compound duty if needed.

Although these alcoholics see things when they are intoxicated, they seem to hear strange noises after sobering up. The surprising part of the re port, by Drs. Maurice Victor, Jus tin M. Hope and Raymond A. Ad ams, of tlie Massachusetts Gener al Hospital, was that the doctors reported cases of auditory hal lucinations fairtly common. In fact, most of the alcoholics studi ed were reported to have ex perienced such hallucinations. The doctors’ study revealed that various noises were heard, such as music,voices, and barking. There were cases of violent reac tions in the alcoholics and there were several attempts at suicide because of these hallucinations. The experience of ‘‘hearing things’’ is thus a more common effect of alcoholics than has been real ized. --1—--Jw—-— Estimated milk production in North Carolina during May to taled 159,000,000 pounds, a record for the month.
