'Ethiopians' in Sicily Throw Scare Into Natives With the British Eighth Army Spitfire Group, Sicily, Aug.

2 (Delayed) (U.P.) When a group of colored troops from the British protectorate. Basutoland landed in Sicily to aid the ground staff of the Royal Air Force squadron some Sicilians Inquired: "Who are these men?" "Don't you know?" replied a British airman.

Spy Suspect Ask 1 Change of Counsel Directs His Return After Consultation With Assigning Judge Erwin Harry De Spretter, 52, of 1565 Richmond Road, Dongan Hills, Staten Island, indicted jointly with Ernst Lehmitz on charges of conspiring to transmit military information to the German Government, was told today by Judge Abruzzo in Brooklyn Federal Court tnat his request for a change of counsel could not be acted upen at this time. Last week Judge Galston had assigned former City Magistrate Charles A.

Oberwager as counsel for De Spretter. De Spretter was brought from the Federal House of Detention, Manhattan, to court, and after a conference between Judge Abruzzo, Oberwager and Assistant United States Attorney James D. Saver, Judge Abruzzo said to De Spretter. "I understand that you wrote a letter last week to Judge Galston spying that you wished another lawyer assigned to you. What reasons did you give in your letter for desiring another counsel?" De Spretter replied: "I said because of Judge Oberwase r's German ancestry, and because of the seriousness of the charge, I desire another counsel." Judge Abruzzo said: "In this country we do not take a man's ancestry into account, particularly when he is a good American.

I can assure you that Judge Oberwager is a good American citizen." "I did not make this assignment of counsel, and I cannot act on your lequest at this time," Judge Abruzzo said. The judge added he would communicate with Judge Galston and directed that De Spretter be brought back to court Thursday, declaring that by that time he expected to have a reply from Judge Galston. Both De Spretter and Lehmitz pleaded innocent of the charge yesterday, and both were remanded to the Federal House of Detention in default of. $50,000 ball each. Treasury in Drive To Put Over Idea Of higher Taxes Washington, Aug.

3 (U.R) The administration today was engaged in a campaign of "selling" sharply increased income taxes to Congress and the people, but there were signs that Congress may not be willing to go nearly as far as expected in that direction. Secretary Morgenthau said "It Is urgently necessary for Individuals to pay high taxes if we are to pay as much as possible out of our current national income for the cost of the war." He said that Americans must buy and hold as many war bonds as they can afford, but that taxes were the best method of paying for the waar "because they pay for the war once and for all." Morgenthau's tax statement backed up the remarks of Stanley S. Surrey, Treasury Department legislative counsel, who said income tax rates must be increased and exemptions lowered. It also strengthens the President's demand a "stiff" tax increase to meet a $105,869,000,000 budget. But Senator Carl Hatch N.

added his voice to that of Chairman Walter F. George of the Senate Finance Committee in warning that over-large tax increases might wipe out the middle class "the backbone of the nation." Chairman Robert L. Doughton N. of the House Ways and Means Committee served notice that his committee would not be bound by the Treasury's estimate that $12,000,000,000 more taxes will be needed. He said the committee would raise what it "reasonably" can.

These conflicting views Indicated that the Fall session of Congress may be a lively one on the tax question with sharp debate over how much the American people can safely be taxed without endangering the welfare of families with modest incomes.
