Sen. Robert A. Taft, moved adoption of Guffey's proposal with an amend ment exempting food from the sales tax, but lost on a 9 to 9 vote. The "victory" tax, if finally adopt ed as Sen. Walter George, pro posed it, would mean a five per cent levy on all individual income in excess of $624 a year.

In the case of wage and salary earners it would be deducted from pay envelopes each payday and turned over to the treasury. Members of the armed fdrces. domestio and farm laborers would settle with the treasury themselves at the end of the year. Filing Date The proposal also involves mov ing ahead the date of filing tax re turns two months, from March 15 to Jan. 13, and would apply to divi dends, Interest, rents and royalties, annuities, net profits from business and income from partnerships as well as wages and salaries.

The "victory" tax features a re bate provision under which the taxpayer would receive, after the war, a portion of the tax back. Three types of post-war credit would be allowed: 1. For single persons, 25 per cent of the amount of the "victory" tax, with an outside limit of S50Q. 40 Per Cent J. For married persons, 40 per cent of the amount of the "victory" tax, with an outside limit of $1,000.

3. For each dependent, two per cent, with an outside limit of 1100. Up to these limits, taxpayers could credit against the "victory" tax pay ments of life insurance premiums outstanding as of Jan, 1, 1942; payment of debts contracted prior to that date; or purchase of war bonds. If the credit were not used in any of these ways, the taxpayer would receive a non-interest bearing, non-negotiable bond which he would cash in after the war. U.S.O.

9 U.f! The heat Is on In London today lor a united Nations' smash at Germany pos eibly through the greatest concen tratlon of air striking power ever Hurled at one nation. In many places it was believed to day a belief backed by the most recent statements of President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Wins ton Churchill that the date has now been fixed -for the opening of the second front against Adolf Hit' ler. Whatever the date of the land of' fensive. I have found in Britain env phatic determination to turn against Hitler at the quickest possible moment the weapon with which he once terrorized Europe air power and air power in a concentrated striking form such as will put the luftwaffe's biggest performances in the shade. Time Favorable There Is an urgent desire in many quarters that this weapon be turned against Germany quickly because of belief that the present opportunity is most favorable for an all-out air attack.

Such an attack would require a tremendous concen tratlon of allied air strength but it is noted that the big RAP night at tacks already exceed the biggest the Germans ever made on Britain. This belief is coupled with a feeling that we must win the war by bringing a halt to the dispersal of our effort and by striking the axis in the heart with all the weapons- including land forces which can be mustered. I am confident after talking with numerous American and other soldiers, as well as officials, that the spirit not only of the armed forces but of the British people Is most strongly behind the idea of aggressive warfare aimed at Berlin, even It the speed of the offensive necessarily increases in costliness. Change In Attitude The greatest change I have seen in Britain since my last visit a year and a half ago at the tail end of the blitz when the average Briton was glorying in his ability to take It, is desire to get on with "dishing It out" on a major scale. Whether the time is ripe militarily is a question which can be decided only by the highest military men and statesmen.

The people are willing within limits to take their word for it. But their eagerness to act is without question. Two-Month Bride Asks for Divorce A bride of only a little more than two months, Mrs. Roma Southworth, has filed district court suit for divorce. She accuses James C.
