Simplified Tax Bill In House
WASHINGTON, May 5 (UP)— The house was expected today to pass and send to the senate by nightfall a sweeping new tax simplification bill designed to eliminate tax returns for about 30.(100,000 individuals and make the job of figuring them out easier for others. Little opposition was voiced to the measure during two days of dehatf and it was expected to receive overwhelming approval in the final vote. It was approved unanimously by the house ways and means conirtiittve on March 17. * * The bill was drafted in response to charges in and out of congress that the individual income tax strut: ture—what with normal and surtttes, victory taxes and withholding schedules—was so complex that it was becoming too much for th* average citizen and oftimes too much for the expert. Among the few critics was Rep. Donald H. McLean, R., N. J., who took exception with the committee •estimated that the bill would reduce the total burden on taxpayers by $60,000,000. He said that it was actually a new revenue measure that would bring the treasury from $200.000 000 to $400,000,000 in new funds. McLean also criticized the bill for not going further and merging all

have wanted to attend a Cathedral, (•a here was my ohance. I strolled In and really it was beautiful. Soon after I entered the Mass began. As for myself, I'felt very conspicious, not knowing what to do. I just sat there and did like I do at home in our church, d've always heard the saying “When in Rome, do as the Romans Do" but I didn't. Well the Mass was really beautiful. It was something I will always remember. I was saying the Chaplain was elevated to a Bishop. They say it was the first time it has ever happened. By that I moan in pre-war times it always took place in Rome, and this is the first time it has been outside of Rome. I guess my being nosey showed me something. That was a Sunday and it was a wonderful day for me. I also had a good time in walking around and J seeing things I (had never seen before. I got up early this morning and went on K. P. again. For breakfast we had eggs, the old fashioned kind, you know the kind With shells on them, the fresh kind. Quite a rarity over hvro. All we ever see is the dried foods. They are O. K. but hard to get used to eating. I received the cook-
