CO>.'Gr.rS3 HOPEFt’L ly aJ.'duIcJ far 1949. That schoduK' would leave a heavy pari of Mr. Truman's program for action in the 1950 congresEio:>nl campaign year. At his news conference late yesterday, the President said Congress should finish Us job no matter how long it takes. But he did not define what he considered to be its job for this year, beyond saying that he still wants action oil his request for a $4 - 000,000.000 tax increase. Senate Democratic Leader Scott W. Lucas, 111 , avoided icct comment on Mr. Truman's remarks. He said it would be opt of older for him to say anything about tax legislation because tax bills must start in the House.

Lucas said the major legislation still to be handled by the Senate this year includes the administration's 1 aft-Hartley repealer, the bill to extend and r - vise the Reciprocal Trade Act and the North Atlantic Treaty. They probably will be called up in that order. Lucas believes those three measures Will require about nine weeks of debate. RITA WEDS AI.Y the Prince is a fine fellow for all his fabulous wealth, wished the couple "the happiness that you desire." With these good wishes, the newlyweds sped away in a gray convertible Cadillac tc the Prince's r.lllion - dollar Chateau de L'Hr.rizoji for a celebration that promised to set a Riviera record.

Demos To Back Mills' Tax Plan . WASHINGTON, May 27 — (UP) S.iirrp Democratic ta;; experts in Congress said today they expect to support the Mills p'.an for a ‘speedup of corporation tax payments as an alternative to a general tax increa-'*. Eut President Truman does not take this view. He told a news conference late yesterday that he still thinks Congress should vote the $4,000,000,000 tax increase he asked for in January. Mr. Truman's staunchest supporters on the tax-drafting House Ways and Means Committee said they didn't want to get in a public debate with the President. But they made it clear that as of now they far prefer the plan offered by Rep. Wilbur D. Mills. D., Ark., to a tax Increase. Under Mills' proposal, corpora, tions would be required to pay their taxes w’ithin six months after the end of their taxable: year instead of being allowed 12 months as at present. Mills estimated tha* if such a requirement should become effective July 1. the government’s anticpnted income in the 1950 fiscal year would be increased bv close to $5,000,000,000. LATE NEWS ended hy four power agreement. Soviet authorities announced that “for the time being” they would he unable to handle trains from western Germany to Berllr on the Helinstedt line, the only direct railway across the Ruslan zone from the west. The new squeeze on Berlin stemmed from a strike of rail workers in west Berlin, nov. rounding out its first week. The Soviet-controlled railway administration pulled switchmen and other workers off duty In west Berlin Tuesday in an effort to break the strike of 16,000 nonOmmiinist workers demanding payment in west marks instead of Kiisslan hacked currency.

Unified Command Areas Suggested WASHINGTON, May 27 - - ftTP)—Gen. Mark W. Clark urged today that unified area command* be set up in continental United States. Tlie four-star commander of the sixth army told the United Press in an interview that unless the armed forces effect real unity in peacetime, “we are going to pay for it should there be ■war.” j “Better results, more efflci-1 ency and more national security , for’ each dollar appropriated would result if there were un- | fication of command,” he said. | Clark said the army, navy and I air force maintain as close liaise.-) | as possible in the West Coast ( area of his Sixth Army. But, he said, “each has little conflicting

interests."

"We must have'one commander before we really can get un ification,’’ he contended. Outside the continental United States, American armed forces of all the services have been unified under single commanders in the various areas such as the Atlantic Carribean European, and Far East. But the joint chiefs of staff so far have decided against dividing up continental United States into similar unified area commands. The army, navy and air force all have separate district setups with wholly independent commanders. COAL OPERATORS
