WASHINGTON, July 5 (U, P.). plans today to investigate the American occupation of Ger-
including alleged widespread

U. 8. troops,
The inquiry, long delpyed at the insistence of the state department, was scheduled tentatively for the congressional summer recess,
Committee Chairman Chan Gurney (R. 8, D.) sald most members have inidcated “they'd like to have
of apathy” that has caused Americans to forget their responsibilities. Other committee members said they were eager to “look into complaints about American occupation.” A year ago a proposed inquiry by the senate war investigating committee was delayed when the state department argued it would hurt American prestige abroad. That probe was sought on the basis of a committee report alleging that many U. 8. troops had been guilty of misconduct and immorality. Other news from Capitol Hill:
G. O. P. Fears Tax Bill May Delay Holiday
Income Tax—Republicans feared that long-drawn-out senate debate on the revised income tax reduction bill might throw off their plans for beginning their vacation July 26. House Republican Leader Charles A. Halleck of Indiana said both branches would want to stay in session long enough to see the bill through. But if Democrats decide to resort to stalling tactics, this might be several days. The G. O. P. leadership is virtually assured of enough strength in the house to override a possible second veto of the tax measure, but senate
Republicans admit they are in for former publisher of the Blooming-
a tough fight to win approval by a two-thirds majority.
‘Work Promised
On New Farm Program
Farm Program—Chairman CIlifford R. Hope (R. Kas.) said his house agriculture committee would hold summer and fall hearings to fron out details of a new farm program before the next session of congress. The program is intended to take the place of the agricultural adjustment act which «has been in effect for 10 years. Highlight of the new plan reportedly is a flexible price support program ranging from 70 to 90 per cent of parity, The government is committed to support prices of most farm commodities at a full-90 per.cent of parity until Dec. 31, 1048. This is to compensate farmers for their all-out wartime production efforts.
