Navy Plans New
Aircraft Carrier
WASHINGTON, (A*)—'The navy
plans *o start building a flush
deck aircraft carrier in 1951 only
a little smaller than the huge ves
el which became a center of con
trovery lat year after contruction
on it was halted.
A high navy official confirmed
Friday night that the Joint Chiefs
of Staff and Secretary of Defense
Johnson had given a go-ahead on
the new vessel. It will have a run
way about 25 feet longer than the
986-foot deck on the largest U. S.
carrier now' in service.
The projected “super carrier,”
which Johnson banned last year
after the keel had been laid would
have been 1,090 feet long and
would have cost an estimated
$125,000,000. The new carrier is
expected to cost somew'hat less.

House Approves
| Excise Tax Bill;
Senate May Kill
WASHINGTON (/P), The House
yesterday approved the $1,010,
000,000 excise tax-cutting bill,
“veto-proofing” it with a $^33,
000,000 a year boost in new lev
ies on big corporations.
But the ultimate fate of any tax
reduction at all may be tied to the
Korean war.
The House action tossed the bill
j over to the Senate, which may
take it, revise it, or kill it. depend
ing on developments — whether
more money for American fight
ing equipment will be needed.
Just ahead of its final vote the
[House rejected 238 to 147 a Re
publican move to split the bill in
two. Assailing the bill as a “pho
ny” tax reduction, the Republi-j
cans tried to get separate votes on
one bill reducing excises, and
then on another dealing with the
tax increasing and loophole plug
ging provisions of the one-package
measure.
But failing in this effort many
Republicans, committed to excise
reduction, joined with Democrats
in the final vote for the bill.
The House, with this vote and
with its work far ahead of the
Senate, then made ready to begin
today a 10-day July fourth recess.
The tax bill would slash the ex
cises, many of them imposed in
World War II, on jewelry, furs,
pocketbooks, movies, baby bottle
warmers and scores of other items.
These cuts might become effec
jtive September 1 or October 1.
While slashing the excises—
sometimes called nuisance or
| sales taxes—the measure would
make up the revenue loss by the
boost on big corporations, loop
hole plugging and other tax law
revisions.
This is the “veto proofing” pro
cess, for President Truman warn
ed Congress long ago he would
approve no excise cutting bill that
did not offset the revenue loss by
higher taxes in other directions.
GOP Senators Ask
“Red Control” Bill
WASHINGTON. (A3)—Republi
can Senators applied pressure yes
terday for Congressional action on
a “communist control" bill before
Congress adjourns. They claimed
wide public support.
The issue was one of many that
might wpset plans of Senate Dem
ocratic leader Lucas of Illinois
adn other Congressional leaders
to wind up law-making July 31.
A strategy session late Wednes
day of the Senate Republican pol_
icy committee produced the new
move, apparently timed to the U.
S. ultimatum against communism
in the far Pacific.
Chairman Taft (R.-Ohio) of the
Republican policy makers told re
porters that the proposal to re
quire the registration and restirc
tion of communists in this country
is “sufficiently important" to ask
that it be added to the list of
“must legislation."
Taft said Republicans would
support a communist registration
bill reported favorable more than
two months ago by a 12to 1 vote
of the Senate judiciary committee.
They may oppose some changes,
he added.
