WASHINGTON, July 22—(AP)
—The Times-Herald said today in
a front page announcement it has
“imposed on Itself voluntary cen
sorship.”
The paper said it “will not print
designations of armed forces’ units
called to active duty.
“Although such information
might be available to newspapers,”
it added,*“make-up of the units,
their strength, their equipment
and their destinations will not be
disclosed by this newspaper.
OTTAWA, July 22— (AP) —
Former Prime Minister W, L. Mac-
Kenzie King has suffered an at
tack of acute penumonia and his
condition today was termed grave.
King, 75, lapsed into uncon
sciousness. He was stricken Thurs
day at his summer home in Kings
mere, a lakeside resort 20 miles
from Ottawa.
Dr. Campbell Laidlaw, report
ing from King's bedside at noon,
said he had hoped the former
Prime Minister might rally as he
has from a number of attacks
since a circulatory illness afflicted
him in 1948. King is a bachelor.
He resigned the prime minister
ship Nov. 15, 1948.
STRONG MEN
OMAHA, Nebr., July 22—(AP)
—Two South Omaha packing plant
employes had some new-found re
spect today for their own strength.
At the insistence of two snari
ing bandits, the two men pushed
a big office safe through two doors
to a loading dock this morning.
Then, with guns poking them in
the ribs, the two men boosted the
safe onto a truck.
When the safe, weighing nearly
a ton, was found later six burly
men tried to move it. It didn’t
burge.

TOKYO, July 22—(AP)—Amer-
Sen. George Proposes
Pay-As-You-Go Taxes
WASHINGTON, July 22—(AP)
—Senator George (D.-Ga.) said
today the cost of fighting Com
munism in Xorea and in any
broader conflict will have to be
met mainly through higher taxes
on a pay-as-you-go basis.
At the same time, George, who
is chairman of the tax-writing
Senate Finance Committee, told
reporters:
1. He still feels it would be a
mistake for Congress to enact a
tax increase bill right away. He
said there is no point in trying to
write a $10,000,000,000 bill now,
“when it might turn out later that
we need $15,000,000,000 or $2,-
000,000,000.”
2. He thinks the Korean War
will be confined to that area pro
vided the United States takes steps
to become and remain “reasonably
strong” from a military stand
point.
George said building up Ameri
ca’s defense forces would have a
“stabilizing influence” on the
world.
“I am not in the class of those
who regard World War 111 as in
evitable,” he declared. “I don’t
think it is coming. I don’t think
icans in Japan were told today to
button their lips on war talk.
“Self-imposed censorship is ur
gently required of all members of
the occupation” because of the Ko~
rean war,” said a headquarters an
nouncement issued to all army
units.
The pages of the Army newspa- l
per Stars and Stripes ecarry liberal
sprinklings of phrases familiar!
during World War Two, such as'
“don’t discuss troop movements,”
“T-a-l-k is another spelling for
murder,” don’t spread rumors.
ELEVATOR FIRE
VANCOUVER, B. C., July 22—
(AP) — A spectacular fire de
stroyed the 400-foot Columbia pier
and its five-story grain conveyor
structure today.
One grain elevator official es
timated the loss would be at least
$1,000,000.
The fire burned along the Con
veyor System to within 30 feet of
seven big grain elevators. Thirty
pieces of fire-fighting equipment
including a ‘fireboat fought the
flames. Officials attributed the
fire to spontaneous combustion.

anybody, including Russia, is
ready for a third world war.”
George is not a member of the
Senate-House Economic Commit
tee, the group which Senator O’
Mahoney (D.-Wyo.), -the chair
man, said yesterday favors boost
ing taxes immediately to finance
this country’s Korean war cost
and general defense effort. O’Ma
honey said he personally is for at
least a 10 per cent increase in in
come taxes.
The joint committee, O’Mahoney
reported, wants taxes on both in
dividuals and corporations in
creased at this time.
George noted that the joint com-~
mittee is simply an advisory
group, and that the Senate Finance
Committee and the House Ways
and Means Committee actually are
responsible for handling of the tax
legislation.
Both George and Rep. Dough
ton (D.-N.C.), chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee, have
said they expect no tax action un
til late fall or January.
“I don’t think it would be wise
to undertake writing a tax bill
at this time because we don’t
know the magnitude of the need
as yet,” George said.

(D.-Md.) or the Senate Armed
Services Committee is a revival of
the wartime “family support al
lowances” for all service men. ‘
Congress ordered these benefits
to taper off in 1948 but they cost
$250,000,000 for the last year even
though the armed forces were
only a fraction of wartime
strength. Revival of the family
support allowances used during
the last war would cost billions if
the armed forces are built-up rap
idly.
After that Tydings said Con
gress must revise the draft act
extension which was tailored to
fit peacetime conditions. At pre
sent, the policy is to draft only
young men from 19 through 25
years without dependents.
Deferments are too liberal, Tyd
ings said. Other lawmakers have
been talking about raising the up
per age limits, possibly as high as
35 years.

scholar of his day, had a good

will have any more.effect on food
prices this year than last, Current
prospects point to a lower volume
of exports.
The bureau- said civilian food
consumption per person this year
is expected to average 11 per cent
higher than the 1935-39 average
and a little above 1941, the record
before this country’s entry into
World War IIL. It will be about the
same as 1949.
Food production this year was
forecast at the same level as last
year and 38 percent more than
the 1935-39 average and 20 per
cent above 1941, Production is
supplemented by “fairly sub
stantial” reserve stocks of most
foods which can be stored.
The bureau said the current
strong consumer demand for some
foods, such as meats, results in
large part from the record level
of employment and the high level
of personal income. It said a larger
part of personal incomes is being
spent for food than before the last
war.
The sugar supply situation was
described as “quite good.” This is
one of the commodities which con
sumers have been buying in heavy
volume. Production in areas sup
plying the United States was larg
er this year than last and is like
ly to be even larger next year.

BY CHARLES BARRETT
ATLANTA, July 22.—(AP) —A battle for control of the
Georgia public school department was reported brewing
behind the scenes at the state capitol today.
The ecritical question is whether newly re-elected State
School Superintendent M. D. Collins or the Talmadge-ap
pointed State Board of Education is the boss.
A showdown over the issue may flare into the open at a
board meeting Friday, with the losing side resorting to the
courts.
The feud was reported by Ken
Turner of the Atlanta Journal,
who said “the two sides squared
off for what nray be a major con
troversy.”
Collins for years has hired and
fired school department personnel
almost at will, Some board mem
bers feel he is exceeding his legal
authority, that the board has the
final say on all personnel under
Collins.
The issue almost flared in May
1949, but a compromise brought
an uneasy peace under which Col
lins continued his rule. Board
members then reportedly let the
matter lie to avoid a controversy
before last month’s Democratic
primary.
In 1949, some board members
wanted to transfer C. S. Hubbard,
director of the school depart
ment’s textbook division. Collins
refused. The board also wanted to
appoint a financial expert in
charge of school finances, respon
sible to the board and not to Col
lins. Collins insisted that he ap
point any such official, B
A showdown was averted then
and both matters were passed over
for one year. The board at that
time, however obtained an official
ruling from Attorney General Eu
gene Cook that Collins may only
make recommendations and that
final action is up to the board.
Collins pins his hopes on an
earlier opinion in 1937 by the late
Attorney General M, J. Yeomans
which he said differed from Cook’s
ruling.
Three Other Issues
The board also has on tap three
other matters of possible contro
versy:
I—A new budget. School offi
cials want about $2,500,000 more
this year. They have about sl,-
500,000 left over in unspent funds.
Indications are they have little
chance of getting more than that.
This may nrean an increase in the
average student load per teacher.
~ 2—A feud at the Academy for
‘the Blind, quieted down before
‘the election, may come out now
with reports that John W. Lewis,
jr., blind himself and a graduate
of the Academy, may replace Di
rector J. W. Williams. Lewis is
now a placement agent for the
blind with the school department’s
Division of Vocational Rehabilita
tion. Some board members are
known to be supporting him for
the director’s job. Willianrs was
involved in a dispute with the
Rev. Harry Moore, Academy field
representative,
3—A new plan for textbook
adoptions. The present plan is
called a multiple adoption, under
which the state approves a long
list of books from which local
schools may select texts. There
has been talk of a single adoption,
under which the state would se
lect a single text for classroom
