Washington, D. C. (NWNS)-
Beef, taxes and gasolln·e seem to
be the chlcf subject of controversy
on the domestic front on the eve
of the, reconvening of congress.
Many congressmen have returned
to Washington for the new session
which opens September 14-and
they have returned with a deter-
mination to do something about
the situation which, on their visits
home, they have found to be most
disturbing to the people Who elect-
e1 them.
Co.ngressme.n who are now in
\'\'ashlOgton say that the people at
home have lIothin~ but praise for
the way the wur b:lJ:l been conduct-
ed so fllr 1.'ut t}ll'rtl Is no doubt
lett In the m!nds of our represen-
tatlvcs in this city tuai the people
are expecting them to take fast
actl'ln to Improve mn.ny disturbing
condlUona on the domestic front.
'l'he food rroblem Is probably the
most irksome of all to the major-
Ity of people congressmen have
found. The 'people don't object to
rationing as such~and they are
willing to go without scarce foods
which are needed by the armed
forccs-but thoy are sick and tired
ot black In&rkets and of scarcities
In tha 1:1hlst of ple.nty.
The beef situation' Is typical of
those which have aroused the ire
of the American people. Reports
trom tho c:J.h:le states malte It clear
that there Is now a record supply
of beef on the ranches-enough to
supply the needs of the men in
uniform, to g.ive some to lend·lease
and still have enough lett over to
fiU the average needs of the people
at home. But 'due to Impractical
pricing regulations plus black mar-
.ket operations, beef not only Isn't
reaching the people but Is also
scarce In army camps. A lot of
beef is being sold on the ranches
pending a better price arrangement
and a large percentage of the beef
which is slaughtered is finding its
way into black mar.kets. Congress-
men will probably investigate this
situation immediately and will de- Registration-Thursday, Sept. 0
mand a remedy.

OUR TOWN
a problem as food, Is bein'g used by
the people as an example of poor
handling and poor management of
a war problem. Congressmen say
that their constituents don't mind
cutting down on gasoline consump-
tlon, but they strongly object to
the week-to-week uncertainty to
whloh gasoline rationing has been
subjected ever since rationing be-
gan. And the people in the East
were ·vehement In their protests
over tne recent gasoline "drouth"
whloh Immediately followed news
that their gasoline problems were
going to be lessened.
Although Congress won't have
time to do anyth.lng about the tax
situation before the September 15
estimates and payments are to be
filed, they will probably look into
the tax complications as soon as
they reconvene. They wUl, first,
trY to work out plans for simpllfy-
Ing present tax collection me~hods
which threaten to cause a revolt
among tax-payers unless slmpllfi-
cation Is worked out Immediately.
The second tax problem which
congress must solve Is how to col-
lect more tax money. The treasury
has demanded that government
