WASHINGTON, Aug. 18 (U. P). —The National Association of Manufacturers today urged Congress to ienact a general sales tax and to! {broaden the individual income tax [by lowering personal exemptions.

In Iceland,

Iceland is a “rugged country and long underwear feels good,” writes

one of Indianapolis Marine Corps reservists in his first letter home since landing with the Marine Corps occupation forces on the Atlantic island. The letter was from First Sergant Bliss R. Reynolds, 42, who left Indianapolis with the local 16th | Marine Corps battalion last Novem{per for San Diego, Cal. He landed |at Iceland July 12 after a long | voyage around through the Panama Canal. . In the letter received by his sister, Mrs. Dorothea Smith, 810 Olive St., Sergeant Reynolds said: “This is the darndest country I ever saw. It never gets dark. The sun doesn't set until about midnight and then it's sunup a couple of hours later. A fellow doesn't {know when to go to bed. “It sure is rugged country and longhandled underwear feels good.

23, 11 days after the First Marine Brigade, the occupation unit, landed in Iceland. It was the first letter relatives of Sergt. Reynolds had received since he sailed from San Diego—bound to Iceland—on May 30th. In a second letter written Aug. 1, and received a few days ago, Sergt. Reynolds revealed that the boat carrying his group of Marines to Iceland went through the waters where the British Battleship Hood was sunk by the Germans. His ship, he said, also picked up survivors from a torpedoed ship, the Helga’ which included “some Marines and American nurses in it.” Sergt. Reynolds, who is married and has a 17-year-old son, was accompanied to San Diego by his wife and son, who bid him farewell when he sailed for Iceland. Mrs.

Goods Limited

“The real danger of price infiation,” he said, “lies in increasing tremendously the money in the] hands of this great sertion of the | {public in relation to a limited sup-| ply of goods.” He said the NAM believes that | new revenue needed .to help finance the defense program should be acquired through: 1. Some increase in the existing | rate on normal corporate income. | He approved upping the present | normal rate to 30 per cent but he| opposed any increase in excess profits tax rates. 2. An increase in the present 4 per cent normal rate on individual income. 3. A broadening of the tax base through a decrease in the individual income tax exemptions, now set at) $800 for single persons. $2000 for | married couples and $400 for each | dependent. 4. A form of general sales tax.

SPENDING MAY HALT | PLANS FOR WEDDING

From the way things stand now, a 23-year-old Allison employee may have to postpone his marriage plans following his appearance in Mue nicipal Court this morning. Byron Todd, motorcycle polices man, told Judge John McNelis he chased the youth, Glenn Knupp, 58th St. and Road 29, more than 10 blocks over the West Side early today. He said the youth drove through two alleys although the siren on the police motorcycle was wailing and Officer Todd fired one shot in the air before Knupp brought the car to a halt. : Charged with speeding 54 miles an hour and reckless driving, the young driver told Judge McNelis he was going to get married soon, “If IT had to pay a fine for speeding, I wouldn't have enough money, to get married,” he told the judge. Judge McNelis fined him $25 and costs for speeding, a dollar and costs for reckless driving and revoked his driver's license for 60 days.
