Byrd Says It's
Certain Taxes
WillStayHigh
WASHINGTON (fl Sen. Byrd
(D-Va) says it Is "very evident"
that federal taxes cannot be cut
any time soon unless -the govern
ment cuts back on foreign aid and
nonmilitary spending at home.
Byrd, chairman of the. Senate
Finance Committee which handles
tax legislation, said yesterday that
"in the present state of the world,
defense expenditures should not be
reduced and may. have to be in
creased."
"I sincerely hope the President's
next budget will attack this prob-j
lem," he continued, "and deal j
strongly to eliminate every non-j
essential public expenditure and:
allot one half of the savings to'
paying on the national debt and !
the balance to much needed tax'
reduction."
Byrd made It clear he feels
there should be no tax cuts unless
there is . balanced budget and
the reductions can come out of a'
Treasury surplus.
The Eisenhower administration .
has indicated strongly that it will q rp IS
oppose any move in Congress next i.YlPt.PV i ilflTt. 8
