Proposes Re-Passage Of Vetoed Measure

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, June 30.—Passage of the vetoed tax bill with the

It would mean a total savings to Indiana taxpayers of $72,997,000 and $15,879,000 for Marion county tax-

payers , a table which he had Pai.

Working on the; premise that President Truman would veto the measure with the date changed— since he disapproved the bill before and his veto was sustained by two Republicans voting with the Democrats—Mr. Grant urges that Democrats line up enough votes ‘to make the two- w~needed in bo houses to

“Tax Relief Can't Wait”

“The house ways and means committee is currently engaged in the long-neglected job of a comprehensive revision of the federal tax structure,” Mr. Grant explained. “That job, however, will run many months into 1948 before it can | be completed in both thé house and senate. “Tax relief cannot wait that long. At the very latest it should be the first order ‘of business when congress -reconvenes in January. “Better still, ‘the job should be done now if a few additional Democrats will join with. the Republicans in congress to insure the passage over a veto.” ' Contending that the veto cost Indiana taxpayers nearly 73 million dollars a year, Mr. Grant estimated that approximately a million and one-half Hoosiers who pay federal income tax suffered an average loss of $48.60.

Drivers Strike Ties Up

Two Chicago Dairies CHICAGO, June 30 (U. P.) —Milk wagon drivers went on strike against two large Chicago dairies today. However, one dairy reached a settlement with the drivers within a" few hours. Members of the A. F. of L. milk wagon drivers went on strike against the Dean Co. and at one garage of the Borden Co. Union officials and police said, however, that officers of the Dean company had announced readiness to accept conditions that would end the strike there. The drivers struck to impel the two firms to accept a contract agreed upon by other Chicago milk dealers. The two companies failed to accept the contract at the same time as other dairies, objecting to a severance pay clause.

1. 5. Ends Control

Of Mines Today

By FRED W. PERKINS -Howard Staft Writer w GTON, June 30. This is

an important date for the coal mining industry and the man who represents its labor, John L. Lewis. Government possession of about 3000 bituminous coal mines, which began on May 21 of last year, ended at noon today. Interior Secretary A J. Krug ordered the end of gov. ernment operation just 12 hours before expiration of the war-time law which gave authority for seizure of these private properties. The mines went back to their private owners. And against them Mr, Lewis is driving for the greatest victory he has ever won for his powerful union of half a million members—the United Mine Workers. He wants a wage increase that would overshadow the boosts recently won by other unions. And in addition he wants guarantees from the employers that they will not in« voke the new Taft-Hartley labor law against him. No Private Contract To win, he pits the power of his union to cut off coal production and eventually steelmaking, power production and many important manufacturing industries.

An announcement, from Wash. ington sald custody of the condemned fort would not be turned over to the war assets administration until that agency had made definite determination of its disposition. Government agencies have top priority for acquisition of the property and the veterans administration appeared to have the inside track at the moment.

" There also appeared a possibility the once proud Hoosier fort might be used in part as a storage place for selective service records or that the Indiana military district or the national guard might take a slice for future use. There have been reports a signal corps school might be established at the old fort but no information on these reports were available from Washington. Sixty-five enlisted mer were transferred from station at the fort today for duty at the disciplinary barracks in Milwaukee, Wis., latest of a number of transfers which have nearly wiped out the fort's personnel.
