one hundred and ninety-second anni-
versary of the birth of that splendid
figure in American history, it behoov-
es us to pay particular respect to his
memory. At a time when the world is
still in chaos, America, because it was
established with the thought of per-
manence and freedom, remains quite
alone in calmness and peace of mind,j
and continues to progress despite the
lack of cooperation and brotherly feel-
ing existent throughout the world. It
was due to the foresight of our early!
leaders that we are today as we are,
a prosperous and healthy nation, re-
spected by all. Chief aniong these
leaders was George Washington.
Our first great military leader andj
our first President should be a source
of inspiration to all true Americans.

it means to be an American, a schol-

Washington, Feb. 21.-(By AP)---
Democrats jammed on the breaks in
the revision of the revenue bill today,
after joining Republican insurgentsI
in gaining some amendments and re-I
fused to support an amendment effer-
ed by this group lpropoaing a tax on
undistributed property of corpor-
ations.
In opposing this amendment, Rep-
resentative Garrett of Tennessee and
Garner, of Texas, the Democratic
-leaders in the tax fight, declared it
was "unfounded' and warned their
party that it must not so change the'
bill already carrying the Democraticj
income rate schedule, that ground
would be given for a residential veto.
