BIG BUSINESS AND TAXES
WASHINGTON.—Juciest gravy in
the current tax legislation is the
continuance of the carry-back of un
used excess profits credit. The sen
ate finance committee, always
frienaly to big business, not only
knocked out the excess profits tax
last year, but retained carry-back
refunds. This permits corporations
whose current earnings do not pro
portionately match their 1936-1939
earnings, to claim adjustments in
their 1946 tax payments.
This is one reason some firms
didn’t worry too much about pro
longed strikes. General Motors
alone will probably hit the treas
ury for a refund of 80 million
dollars. To head off this drain
on the treasury, Rep. Cleveland
Bailey of Clarksburg, W. Va.,
Democrat, introduced a bill last
January to repeal the carry
back provisions. On January 23,
the house ways and means com
mittee asked the treasury for a
report.
Recently impatient Rep. Wilbur
Mills of Arkansas, Democrat, pro
posed that congress act independent
ly, without waiting for the treasury
report. He pointed out that large
credits can be claimed by corpora
tions which actually make more
money this year than they did in
any of the years from 1936 to 1939,
simply because their capital invest
ment is now larger,.
Mills charged that many large
corporations are taking advantage
of this loophole, and as a result the
taxpayer foots the bill for the expan
sion of private industries. He also
listed a long series of “abuses and
transactions which will no doubt be
resorted to in order to create car
ry-back refunds or tax credits.”

KANSAS ATOMIC STRAW
The Eastman Kodak company has
been having trouble as a result of
the first atomic bomb test in New
Mexico—one year ago. Eastman
found that, for some mysterious rea
son, some of its film was turning
black before exposure. Finally ex
perts discovered that the film had
been packed in straw which came
from western Kansas.
After the Los Alamos bomb
test, radioactive dust from New
Mexico settled on Kansas wheat
fields, and is still so powerful
that the Kodak company has
had to stop using Kansas straw
for packing film.

TRUMAN WRITES A VETO
President Truman was convinced
that the half-breed price-control bill
would not work. The Taft amend
ment, he especially argued, was ab
solutely impossible, and he cited ac
countancy experts of various big
manufacturing firms, all of them
against OPA, who branded the Taft
cost-plus formula as likely to
bring chaos to industry.
“I just have to put what I con
sider the country’s welfare
first,” the President told his
congressional leaders. “Let’s
not fool the country and give
them something that won’t
work.”
When they told him that they
would not be able to persuade their
reluctant colleagues to pass any sort
of price-control bill, the President
replied:
“If it’s this or nothing, then
we’ll just have to take nothing.”
Among other things, the Presi
dent figured that during the chaot
ic period sure to follow if the poly
glot price-control bill were passed,
congress would claim it was his
fault fcr not making the bill work,
when, in actual fact, the bill was
unworkable. He felt also that if
congress did dare to go home with
out a price-control bill, things would
be hotter for them in their districts
than in Washington. He also warned
that in this case he would call a
special session of congress.

WHO WON THE WAR?
It is now getting close to a year,
since the end ofnhe war with Japan,
and yet the strategic bombing sur
vey for Japan has not been made
public. Inside reason is a vigorous
backstage tug-of-war between the
army and navy which boils down to
the basic question: ‘ Which of them
won the war in the Pacific?”
Civilian members of the survey
staff, liowever, summarize the situ
ation :
1. Heaviest damage to Japan was
inflicted by U. S. submarines. They
had just about shut off all Jap sup
plies toward ’he end of the war and
Japan was paralyzed.
2. Next greatest damage was
done by long-range army land-
based planes.
3. The navy’s carrier - based
planes were important, but ranked
second to the B-29s.

ABOARD USS APPALACHIAN
OPERATIONS CROSSROADS. —
Second or Baker test of the atomic
bomb in Bikini lagoon, ‘now tenta
tively set for July 25, will be like
dynamiting fish in a pond.
Lacking will be the glamour fit
the army air force and precision
bombing as the whole thing will be
a navy show. The bonjb will be
submerged some 75 feet beneath
the surface in about 30 fathoms of
water, 180 feet, and detonated in the
midst of the target fleet, which is
being regrouped to meet new con
ditions of the test.
This second test also will lack the
drama of the bomb burst and the
atomic cloud, which is characteris
tic of atomic bombs exploded in air.
What is likely to happen is that the
intense heat will generate steam in
the water and the terrific force will
expend a part of its energy in a
waterspout with a cloud of steam
and vapor shooting into the air. In
tent of this test is to measure force
of atomic energy upon the hull
structure of naval ships spaced at
various distances from the center
of the explosion.
Subs to Submerge.
There will not be the visible dam
age v.’hich was inflicted wholly upon
the topsides or superstructures as in
the first blast. Since there is to be
no ship placed directly above the
point of blast, the prediction is be
ing made freely that no capital ships
will be sunk, although lighter craft
may be capsized. Another feature of
the second blast is the placing of
submerged submarines in the target
fleet, and it will be interesting to
note the effect of the bomb force
upon the steel hulls of these ves
sels beneath the water.
Navul scientists predict that
force of the underwater blast
will create waves of sufficient
height, possibly 10 or more feet
which will sweep over low-lying
Bikini island, although this was
also forecast in the first blast
and did not materialize.
Meantime, endless arguments pro
ceed as to the degree of damage to
the ships, the location of the bomb
burst, whether the drop from the
plane was a “near miss,” probable
loss of life had the ships been
manned with full complement, and
comparative efficiency of this first
Bikini bomb as compared to the
bombs at Alamogordo, Hiroshima
and Nagasaki.
Precision Bombing.
When it is considered that this
bomb was dropped from a height of
something like six miles and hit
within a 1,000-yard circle, this re
porter would consider that pret
ty good precision bombing.
Adm. T. A. Solberg of the bu
reau of ships, however, declared
that insofar as he could judge,
every ship damaged by the
bomb, with the exception of the
Independence, could be put into
fighting shape within two or
three months.
For the Independence, battered
and ripped apart by explosions of
her own torpedoes, her ammunition
and aviation gasoline and burning
for almost two days, it would take
about nine months to put her in
shape.
Also all ships damaged, with the
single exception of the Independ
ence, towed away and anchored far
out in the lagoon, likely could have
pulled away under their own steam,
had they been manned with crews.
Study Effects.
In the meantime, Bikini lagoon
has been turned into a vast labora
tory of science, chief interest be
ing the effect of the bomb and its
subsequent radiological rays upon
the live animals placed aboard the
ships at various locations likely to
be occupied by the men aboard.
Amazingly, only about 10 per cent
of the animals were killed by the
force of the blast. Some are burned
and sick and others may become ill
from effects of radioactivity. As
a matter of fact, a few already have
been destroyed by medical doctors,
who are studying this phase of
atomic energy in an effort to deter
mine how this radioactivity can be
used in medicine in treatment of
disease.
Persons or animals which receive
these powerful rays into their sys
tems are variously affected and the
boarding teams upon these ships are
preceded by a trained man carry
ing a “Geiger counter,” a small
box-like apparatus which registers
radioactivity by a ticking noise.
Estimate Losses.
A fleet such as those which com
posed the target fleet would normal
ly carry approximately 30,000 men.
It is reasonable to assume then that
approximately 10 per cent, or 3,000
men, would have been killed by the
atomic bomb blast and that more
would have been injured by radio
activity. Whether much of the dam
age to ships caused by subsequent
fires aboard could have been avert
ed had crews been aboard is a moot
question. . Some ships captains de
clare that damage would have been
much less had the ship fire-fighting
equipment been brought into play,
and this seems reasonable in that
most of the loss on the Independ
ence was due to fire and explosion
and not the bomb blast.
There is no attempt however
on the part of naval authorities
to minimize the terrible power
of this atomic bomb. No other
single bomb ever did the dam
age to a fleet that this one did
. . . five ships sunk, one com
pletely out of commission and
approximately 10 others out of
action for two months or long
er, and small to negligible dam
age done to 10 others.
However another atomic bomb
likely would not find 73 ships to
make up a helpless ghost fleet
grouped conveniently like sitting
ducks and whether use of the atom
ic bomb as an offensive weapon of
naval warfare upon ships at sea
is militarily sound still is a debat
ed question and one which the naval
evaluation board will study during
the next few weeks or months.
It must be remembered that what
ever is said about this second bomb
test before the actual test is in the
realm of conjecture, and much of the
conjecture made prior to the first
test did not materialize.
Arkansas May Be Second Target Ship
DIPLOMATIC POUCH
It’s only been a short time since
the war, but two former enemies,
Italy and Austria, now earnestly
seeking to become democracies, will
be proposed by the United States
for admission to the United Nations
next September. Truman o.k.d this
move last week. . . . Prime Minis
ter De Valera has decided not to
apply for Irish membership in the
United Nations. . . . The pro-Soviet
Mongolian peoples’ republic, how
ever, thinks otherwise about the
United Nations.
Footlights and Spotlights: There
was a* bib and tucker event in the
hayloft circuit last week. Tallulah
Bankhead zoomed into the Green
wich (Conn.) Playhouse with Noel
Coward’s “Private Lives.” The
play’s romantic rough-housing is
admirably suited to the star’s cy
clonic personality, and she kept the
comedy pin-wheeling across the
stage. Several Broadway aisle-
perchers enjoyed her triumph—crit-
ife Vernon Rice ejaculating: “Tallu
lah, the magnificent; Tallulah, the
wonderful!"
Target ship, or vessel nearest cen
ter of the blast, for the second
atomic bomb test may be the over
age battleship Arkansas, it has been
indicated by reliable sources al
though no definite announcement
has been made by Adm. W. H. P.
Blandy, commander of operations
crossroads and the joint task force.
The carrier Saratoga was first
slated to be second target ship.
An interesting sidelight on fate of
the Saratoga, which suffered only
negligible damage in the first test,
is that her commander, Capt. Don
ald MacMahon, knowing that she
was slated for the second target
ship made a wager with a friend in
Washington, before bringing the
ship to Bikini, that he would take
her back to the East coast under
her own power. It looks now that
he has better than a 50-50 chance
of winning his bet.
Some Thoughts About
Unionized Baseball
That uneasiness in the bleachers
these days is due to apprehension
among the fans as to how unionized
baseball, still being talked of, will
change the national game. Up to
now it has been regarded wholly
as a sporting event in which noth
ing counted but athletic suprem
acy, physical fitness and skill with
a ball and bat. Now it may become
tied up with the rights of man, eco
nomic equality and the war between
capital and labor.

“Louis Injured Thumb in Bout.”

•
Well, if a fighter these days gets
careless enough to use his fists in
an outdoor fight it serves him right.
T HIS sporting life may be check
ered, dizzy and dumb, but it is
never wholly dull. One never can
tell from what direction the harpoon
will be thrown.
Here is a double example. A few
weeks ago the Louis-Conn party was
to be the season's
greatest thriller. At
that time the Phil
lies were the joke
of the sporting
world. They had
been tagged as the
eternal occupants
of baseball’s dog
house. They were
supposed to be im
bedded in the ce
ment of the cellar.
All this sounded
reasonable enough
as we looked over the chart. Then,
with little warning, a cloud no larg
er than a man’s hand or thumb
worked into a western twister, while
the Louis-Conn fight broke all rec
ords as a monumental flop—an all-
time record.
About the same time, the lowly
Phillies began their upsurge. With
in two weeks they stole the glory
of baseball. They became more
talked about than the Red Sox or
the Yankees, than the Dodgers or
the Cardinals. They have made the
Louis-Conn dull merry-go-round look
like a taffy-pulling exhibition. The
Phillies have emerged from the
grottoes and the underground into
the open. They finally see the light
of the sun again. They can see the
summer dawn and feel the rain.
Challengers flow
Through the combined efforts of
owner Bob Carpenter, general man
ager Herb Pennock and manager
Ben Chapman, one of the most lib
eral and one of the ablest combi
nations in baseball, the Phillies no
longer are baseball’s doormat. They
no longer belong to the tribe of
“God’s green footstools.” At last
they are a real baseball team.
For several weeks now the Phil
lies have been playing the best
ball in the National league. This
may be no high tribute, but it is an
amazing tribute to a team that has
defended the cellar with record-
breaking stubbornness for a long
time. It should go as a high tribute
to Messrs. Carpenter, Pennock and
Chapman, who have combined to
turn out the best job in baseball for
1946.
The Phillies of 1946 have carried
us back to the Boston Braves of
1914. That happens to be some 32
years ago. Around this date the
Braves were in last place. George
Stallings, the fiery Braves manager
from Georgia, was wearing out a
suit a week, moving up and down
the bench. There have been many
hard-losing managers in baseball—
most of them are—but Stallings
holds the record.
Then, around the first of July, the
Braves began their move from the
bottom.
They had Rabbit Maranville at
short and Johnny Evers at second.
Great field—smart brain—big heart
—no hit. They had Hank Gowdy,
the old Sarge, back of the bat. But,
above all, they had three great
pitchers—Dick Rudolph, George Ty
ler and Bill James. Day after day,
game after game, we saw these
three pitchers in the box score—
Rudolph, Tyler and James.
This trio proved to us that three
pitchers, working every third or
fourth day, are all a ball club needs.
Working that often a pitcher gets
control and confidence. I’m not
referring to the sore-arm boys, to
the once-a-week pitchers of the mod
ern era, where it takes three or
four pitchers to finish a ball game.
Rudolph, Tyler and James start
ed and finished their own games,
working at least twice a week.
They were not pampered as the
modern pitchers are, barring such
men as Feller, Newhouser and a few
others.
From Bottom to Top
So the Braves moved from 8th
to 7th place, then to 6th. They
moved from 6th into the first divi
sion, then headed for the top. They
made the top—and they didn’t need
eight or ten pitchers to carry them
along. They needed only three—
Rudolph, Tyler and James.
The light - hitting overlooked
Braves only murdered the Athlet
ics in four straight games. They
outplayed and outgamed and out-
pitched and outhit one of Connie
Mack’s greatest teams. Hank Gow-
dy hit over .500 in that series. But
the main answer again was Ru
dolph, Tyler and James, who had
been seasoned under fire for over
three months, who had been worked
often enough to know their trade.
Any pitcher who can’t start and
finish over 20 games, who can’t
work in over 300 innings—or 350 inn
ings—isn’t much of a pitcher. WTiat
baseball needs Joday is a combina
tion of Rudolph, Tyler and James,
who can handle a three months’
schedule practically unaided. Mod
ern pitchers need far more work
than they are getting. No set of
arms can be that fragile, that
futile, that weak.
If Chapman only had another Ru
dolph, Tyler and James he would
breeze through this 1946 pennant
race. It wouldn’t even be a contest.
