President Truman urged calm over falling prices saying the dips reflect the level many expected while pressing Congress to boost taxes for 4 billion dollars. He backed tax plans, faced opposition from lawmakers and business leaders who favor postponement until 1949. Predictions hinge on March to April hiring in construction and manufacturing. Economists warned against higher taxes and wage controls, urging postponement until clearer economic prospects emerge.

House To Correct Senate Bill Error In Maryland
Annapolis reports that six State Senators sought to exclude counties from a frisking bill, but the final version would instead leave those counties unprotected. The House Judiciary Committee will fix the mistake before final action. The bill concerns admissibility of evidence obtained via illegal search or seizure in weapon prosecutions. Five named senators proposed excluding Calvert, Frederick, St. Marys, Allegany and Talbot counties.
