Ac-hewn replied: "If the United State will not accede to the re quest! made on It, there will be a strong conviction throughout the i world that a great deal of our professions are merely words." Secret to Be Bared At the outset of today's testi mony, Acheson quickly settled one Issue which had developed be- , tween him and the lawmakers. I He said he would arrange to make public later secret "back ground" documents concerning the situation in Greece and Tur key. Acheson testified under ques tioning by Rep. Mundt (R.-S. D.) that Soviet Insistence on partici pation in the defense of the Dardanelles Straits is one of the "external pressures" on the gov ernment of Turkey. One of the primary reasons the administration desires to provide aid to Turkey, he said, is to com bat "external pressure." The under secretary added that there are no patricufar "internal pressures" on the Turkish govern ment, hut It is staggering under the load of maintaining a normal economy while also keeping arm ed forces In a state of semi-mo-billzation. At one oolnt yesterday, Rep. Merrow asked whether United States security would be threat ened If Greece and Turkey col lapsed and Russia became a Medi terranean natlion. Acheson said he would prefer not to reply. Merrow: "The people of the country want to Know whether we are going to call the bluff of the Soviet Union. That's why I made the statement." Acheson: "It's one thing for you to make that statement; it's an other for me." proponents with "driving people into a corner and telling them they must take the sales tax, that we nave no otner source. The last time the people voted on the sublect was In November, 1944, when they defeated a 2 per cent saU-s tax 269,276 to 96,697. Both sides agreed that if the people defeat the sales tax aeain. a special legislation session would be needed to balance the budpet. which is expected to be about S5.- 000,000 short.

An extra personal exemption' of 5oOO for persons over t3 years old remains in the bill, but a pro- j vision is Inserted whereby these ! elderly persons can take this ex tra exemption only if theyj fore go exemptions now in tax law on income from various annuities such as railroad retirement, so cial security and Army officer retirement. NEW YORK. March 21. UP The New York Times said today that "an authentic report" receiv ed In Washington stated that Communist bands In Greece had a strength of 13,000 and sought to "cut Greece in half." The source of the report was not given. The Times' story, written from Washington by James Reston, said the immediate military ob lectlve of the armed bands was to establish a corridor from the Al banian border east to the Mount 1 Olympus area on the Aegean sea. In such an event, Greek Mace- donla would be sandwiched be- tween the corridor and Aegean to the south, with Yugoslavia and i Bulgaria to the north and Al 1 bania on the west.

House Group Adds O. K. To Income Tax Cut Plan (Continued from Page 1) about $16,000,000,000 annually. In the committee voting, one Democrat Joined 15 Republicans in supporting the legislation. His name was not immediately dis closed. Knutson predicted the House will approve the legislation by a comfortable margin, .although Democrats on the committee or ganized their ranks for a last I ditrh battle. They met with Democratic Floor leader Sam Ravburn as the Repbulican-controlled com mittee went into session to ap prove a bill calling for a 30 per cent slash for small taxpayers and a 20 per cent cut for most others. Ravburn told newsmen follow ing the Democrats' meeting that they felt the entire matter of tax reduction should be deferred un til congress has a better idea of the nation's fiscal situation and how much money will be appro priated. "That will be the attitude of Demcrats In the committee and in the House." he commented. The Republicans counted on their five-man maloritv In the committee made up of 15 Repub licans and 10 Democrats to drive through the Income tax cut bill. As approved by the Republican House steering committee yester day, the bill gives a 30 per cent Income tax slash to low-bracket taxpayers and a 20 per cent cut to most others. The original tax cuttin" legislation was proposed by Chairman Knutson of the com mittee. What Bill Provides After the Steering Cnmmittep's action yesterday, a GOP spokes- STEARNS AUTO PARTS 114 N.
