Britain, Seven Other Nations
Offer Troops For -orean War
LONDON, July 26—(AP)—
Britain announced today she has
decided to send ground troops
into Korea.
The British admiralty earlier
disclosed plans to put the Far
uastern fleet on a “full scale war
footing” immediately,
The decision to back up Amer
ican Gls in Korea with British
soliders was made public by
Defense Minister Emanuel Shin
well in the House of Commons.
Shinwell told the House: ’
“The government today noti

prepared o send to Korea an

Truman Asks Civilian Sacrifices
in Economic Report To Congress
President Ready To Call Complete
Economic Mobilization If Needed
BY STERLING F. GREEN
WASHINGTON, July 26.— (AP) —President Truman
today summoned the nation to “some sacrifice” of its civil
ian plenty. He declared himself ready to call for “complete
economic mobilization’ iT defense of freedom requires.
Mr. Truman told Congress, in his mid-year economic
message, that price ceilings, rationing and “serious short
ages” ¢an be avoided if Congress quickly gives him limited
control powers and a $5,000,000,000 tax increase.
But he warned: “We must reat
ize that the engagement in Korea
will be costly and may not be
short. We must prepare against
the possibility that new erises may
arise elsewhere.”
That hazard means, the Presi
dent said, that industrial output
must be stepped up—possibly by
a rate of $10,000,000,000 annually
before January I—and that basic
industry itself must be expanded
by federal loans and guarantees.
“We cannot afford longer to risk
the possibility of future desperate
shortages of some of the most es
sential requirements for our Na
tional security,” Mr, Truman said.
Je did not name steel specifi
cally as one of the industries erit=-
ically needing expansion. But it
headed his list of “scarcity” ma

counfries thus far have made an
outright numerical offer.
Responding thus far were:
TUREKEY — Offered 4,500
trained combat ftroeps, fully
equipped with American arms.
Details of the offer will be
worked out when Turkey’s per

CUBA—Announced its will

Britain—reported ready to send

consumers alike refraining from

It added new pressure on Con

speed in both law-making and

The powers requested, Mr. Tru

“Detailed plans for these further

“If it should become necessary,
I shall without hesitation ask the
Congress for the grant of the powe

plans, whether for complete eco

intermediate aetion depending
upon the need.”
Industry now is breaking all
production records, he said. Yet,
without adding new plants, it can
speed up to a production rate of

Tax Bill Acceptable
To Most Congressmen
BY FRANCIS M. LeMAY
WASHINGTON, July 26.—(AP)
—President Truman’s call for $5,-
000,000,000 in new taxes got an
unenthusiastic reception on Capi
tol Hill today—not because of the
amount asked to fight Communist
aggression, but because of the tax
methods the President proposed.
The “quickie” increases, if ap
proved by Congress, would raise
the annual take from individual
incomes by an estimated $3,000,-
1000,000 to about $21,900,000,000—
higher than the wartime peak of
$290,300,000,000 reached in 1944,
Individual taxes would be boost
ed, beginning in October, by as
much as 20 percent.
A man with a wife and two chil
dren who earns $3,000 (after de
ductions but before family ex
emptions) now pays Uncle Sam
SIOO. This would be jumped to
$120; if his earnings were $4,000,
the boost would be fromx $266 to
$320; the SIO,OOO man would fork
over $1,592 instead of $1,361 as at
present.
Mr, Truman asked that the in
creases be made effective on all of
this year’s corporation income, and
on three months of this year’s in
come of individuals. He said “speed
is of the essence.” His proposals
were embodied in a letter to
Chairman George (D.-Ga.) of the
Senate Finance Committee. 3
And he told George that this
was ‘only the first installment of
new taxes—that a call gt another
boost might be expected, perhaps
in January.
Lawmakers raised no argument
on the size of the President’s re
quest. They are reafly to raise
taxes, ‘but nmrany objected to:
1. Retroactive taxation on cor
porations.
2. The absence of any excess
profits tax proposals in the Presi
dent’s program. The critics here

Committee will take up the Presi

mittee will make corporation tax

TOKYO, Thursday, July 27. — (AP) — Outnumbered
American and South Korean troops clung stubbornly te
defense positions Wednesday in the face of “heavy pres

said today. i
A field report indicated that the embattled defenders
may have recaptured Hadong, only 70 miles by air west of
the major American supply port of Pusan, after furious air

Headquarters of the United

a. m. Wednesday EST), said the
First Calvary Division has re

attacks on the Yongdong front
in the center of the defense lines.
The Reds hurled waves of tanks
and infantry in an effort to over

The fourth North Korean divi

WASHINGTON, July 26—
(AP)—The Navy f#s putting a

The announcement, which in

Navy and Marines, was made
after a closed-door meeting of

of the enemy down Korea’s West
