The House acted within the hour after it got a vigorously-worded veto message from Mr. Truman. The President told the legislators that this was no time to cut taxes. He also said the bill they sent him was not fair it gave too much of the cut to those with larger incomes.

Mr. Truman's swift approval is a foregone conclusion.

The single package measure, containing provisions for both economic and military aid, is designed to send American dollars flowing into world trouble zones tc help jitem Russian expansion. It provides for: Provisions Of Bill (A) $5,300,000,000 for the first 12 months of a 44 A year European recovery program in which 1C western European nations and western Germany will take part on self-help basis. (B) $463,000,000 in assistance to China. Of that amount $338,000,000 is to be used for economic purposes. The remaining $125,000,000 is set aside for use in any way the Nationalist government of Generalissimo Chiang Kai- Shek sees fit undoubtedly for military supplies to carry on the civil war against Communists.

the Chinese secure from attack and stop the aggression of desperadoes in the world." Mr. Truman sent the legislators a veto message. Besides his references to the state of international relations, the President made these main arguments: Will Be Raiced Again 1. A tax cut now will probably only mean that taxes will have to be raised next year because of rising national defense costs and other increasing government needs. 2.

A big tax reduction "will help to drive the cost of living still higher." 3. "The plain fat'i show that neither funds nor profit incentives are lacking for investment and business enterprise at present tax rate." Backers of the cut have contended it would Investment In new 4. The bill gives "nearly 40 per cent of the reduction" to people with incomes over $5,000 a year and cuts estate and gift taxes $250,000,000 a year for "only about 12,000 of the most wealthy families." Called Bad Policy "It is a bad policy," he said, "to reduce taxes in a manner which would encourage inflation and bring greater hardship, not relief, to our people. "It is a bad policy to endanger the soundness of our national finances nt time when our responsibilities are great in an unsettled world." The President said, too, that he is confident the men and women of this country "prefer the maintenance of our national strength to a reduction in taxes under the present circumstances. Consider! II His Duly "I consider it my clear duty, therefore, to return H.

R. 4700 (the tax bill) without my approval." While $4,800,000,000 is the figure Congress members have used as an estimate of the tax cut the bill would make, Mr. Truman said it would be This was the third tax-cutting measure the President has vetoed in a year. Last year he returned two such measures to Congress without his signature and Con gress sustained him both times. At the outset in today's message the President said: "My fundfimcntnl objection to the bill is that it would not strengthen, but instead would Congratulations To Mr.

Defense Fund Waited Congress meanwhile awaited details of a new, $3,000,000,000 national defense fund sketched in broad outline in a letter President Truman sent to House Speaker Martin ycsterdny. The mniipy would juiKinnnl $11,000,000,000 alreiidy asked by the President for military purposes. Mr. Truman said even more may be needed to "round out and balance our national security program." Within hoJrs after the President's letter reached the capital, the House voted without controversy an increase of 5150,000,000 in the contract authority of the Aatomic Energy Commission.

Blue Uniforms Out The new authority was part of an omnibus $324,107,782 appropriation bill carrying funds for miscellaneous agencies whose original allotments for this year fell short of needs. The bill still must be acted on by the Senate. The House knocked out a $10,000,000 allotment to buy new blue uniforms for Air Force personnel. Members argued (a) the new uniform is not necessary at this time and (b) it might promote ill-feeling between the ground and air forces. weaken, the United States.

One was the four and one-quarter year outline for ERP after the would reduce government revenues to such an extent as to make likely a deficit at a time when "responsible confluct of the financial affairs of this nation requires a subslnntifil surplus in order to reduce our large public debt and to be reasonably prepared against contingencies," Secondly, he said the would greatly increase the danger of further inflation "by adding billions of dollars of purchasing power at a time when demand already exceeds supply at many strategic points in the economy, and when government expenditures are necessarily rising."
