Congress Advised to Revise Laws on

Held for Future Tax Cut
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Eisenhower

can he no "substantial reduction" in actual spending
unless Congress reverses at repeals some laws.

These, (he White House said,

450 million dollars in spending in
the fiscal year starting July 1.
Foundation for Tax Cut

"Given continuation of healthy

Eisenhower, however, laid out
no timetable for a possible tax
reduction.
In addition to suggesting places
for whacking appropriations, the
President proposed that Congress
take steps to improve the budg

points: such as boosting postal

AF Announces
B52 Output to
BeLeveledOff
WASHINGTON Ml The Air
Force announced Thursday that
production of the B52 ' strategic
jet bomber will be leveled oif at
"substantially the present rate of
15 per month" instead of going
up to 20 a month, as proposed
last year.
The B52 is the backbone of this
country's long-range atomic strik
ing force.
The announcement said the
change in plans did not affect the
total number of 603 planes pro
jected for the B52 fleet. It will
extend the production period by
about six months, the Air Force
said.
This will mean that the B52
production program would be due
for completion in the latter part
of 1959.
The new production schedule,
the Air Force said, will make pos
sible delivery of a "substantially
greater proportion of a model-improved
version ot the B52 which
will have much better perform
ance than the current model."
This presumably means the im
proved models have a greater
range than the 6.000 miles, with
out refueling, of the first models
of the bomber. It also could mean
some increase in speed and op
erating altitude.

Near Ministry
PARIS- Wl A battle between
striking rail and subway workers
and police broke out Thursday aft
ernoon on the boulevard in front
of the Transport Ministry.
About 1,000 workers, - members
of the Communist-dominated Gen
eral Labor Confederation (CGT),
assaulted police lines with stones
and metal bars in an effort to
break through to the ministry. Po
lice struck, back with batons and
showered the crowd with firehoses
and tear gas bombs.
Police-rushed up reinforcements
to disperse v the strikers.
The workers went on a two-day
strike Wednesday . for higher
wages. Some 'of the strikers were
drifting back to their jobs Thurs
day. . .
The clash Was the first violence
in the nationwide strike of rail,
subway and bus employes which
has slowed but hardly stopped
normal business.
. Officials said the fight was
touched off when 300 of the dem
onstrators tried to get through po
lice lines to the Transport Min
istry with placards and union slo
gans. Other groups of workers
swarmed into the area to swell
the ranks of the demonstrators.
Police opened firehoses, but the
demonstrators - marched through
the streams of water, bringing a
truckload of debris to their first
line and hurling the contents at
police. Other strikers picked up
paving stones and threw them at
police.
Police guards fell back under
the blows of stone and metal until
reinforcements arrived.

Charges
mittee.
With their testimony, the com-
mittee wound up its public inquiry
into allegations of terrorism by
union leaders in the Scranton
area.
Chairman McCIellan (D-A r k)
said the entire record of the hear
ing would be referred to the Just
ice Department for a study of pos
sible perjury. ,
'Pretty - Obvious'
McCIellan noted the conflicting
statements of persons charging
acts of "terrorism" and denials by
the union officials, and declared:
"It is pretty obvious that some
body is committing perjury."
In a last hour development, it
was disclosed the committee has
asked the FBI why -a-Virginia
manufacturer who allegedly made
"payoffs" has not been indicted
along with union officials indicted
on charges of taking the money.
The disclosure came during
questioning - of

one of the business 'agents of
Teamsters Local 229 in Scranton.
McHugh said he is under fed

ceiving several thousand dollars

Extortion Charged
The indictment charges McHugh
and Robert Malioy, also a busi
ness agent for the same local,
with "extortion" of the money "by
use of threats and force and fear."
Earlier in his testimony, Mc
Hugh had declared he got no mon
ey from contractors other than
Bettendorf and "I didn't get any
from the Tobyhanna job either."
The indictment alleging extor

For Atom
TesHalt
Set Off5th Shot
In Pressure for .
Agreement
LONDONTAP) The
Soviet Union renewed an
appeal Thursday for a ban
on nuclear weapons tests
as "a first modest step to
ward ending the atomic arms
race."
Valerian A. Zorin, the Kremlin's
delegate at the five-power sub
committee of the U.N. Disarma
ment Commission meeting here,
told the Foreign Press Assn:
"An agreement to end the tests
would be an important, practical
step toward a soluuon ot the whole
atomic problems toward halting
I he production of atomic and hy
drogen weapons, prohibition of
their use and the elimination of
these weapons from the arma
ments of states, with the destruc
tion of existing stockpiles of atom
ic and hydrogen bombs."
Big Blast Set Off
WASHINGTON Ml The gov
ernment said Thursday that Rus
sia exploded on Tuesday a nuclear I
weapon which was "one of the
largest thus far in the current
Soviet series.
Chairman Lewis L. Strauss of
the Atomic Energy Commission
(AEC) said this was the fifth in
a series since April 30. Just last
Saturday, he had announced that
four tests had been conducted in
the previous 10 days.
The Russians have exploded
five nuclear weapons within two
weeks and Zorin's listeners im
mediately drew his attention to
this. He was asked how he re
conciled Russia's call for a ban
with its series ot tests.
"The Western powers, namely
the United States and Britain,
still refuse to conclude an agree
ment for ceasing tests of nuclear
weapons," he replied. "In these
conditions, in order to provide for
internal security, the .Soviet Un-
ijoa is. compellod 'to- continue its
Own tests. But as soon as the
United States and Britain agree,
the Soviet Union will suspend
tests at once."
Zorin proposed as Russia's sec
ond step toward an atomic dis
armament accord that the powers
promise . "not to use atomic or
hydrogen weapons, including
rocket weapons and atomic artil
lery." He said Russia is ready to do
Gas Price War
Here Doubtful;
Albany's Over
Salem service station operators
were sitting with crossed fingers
Thursday as they faced the pros
pect of a price war.
Most major operators believed
prices would hold firm. A few
J stations were down about three
cents a gallon on both regular and
ethyl gasolines but about 90 per
cent of the stations were holding
the usual, price of about 34' and
37.
One reason for optimism among
dealers is that no one has signs
out advertising Ihe reduced prices.
That generally is the kick-off ot
a full-fledged price war.
Most dealers are prepared for
a price war, with signs ready to
go. One said he hoped to drop
prices to 20 cents if a price war
started.
Dealers are fully aware of a
price war that lias just ended In
Albany.
Prices that dropped to as low
as 25 cents a gallon for regular
gasoline during a week of price
battling there returned to normal
Wednesday.
Customers took advantage of the
price differential and filled tanks,
cans and barrels with the low
priced fuel. One station reported
that it pumped 2.1.000 gallons of
gasoline over Saturday and Sun
day as compared to a normal

City Ordinance
Re-codification
About Finished
Prpofshects have arrived at the
office of City Attorney .Chris J.
Kowitz from publishers in Los An
geles for the codification of Salem
city ordinances, which' will be off
the press between now and July 1.
Contract for the codification wns
let last year to Michie City Pub
lications Co., which is among the
best known publishers of city and
state codifications and law books.
This codification is really the
first the city has ever had. There
have been several compilations of
ordinances. The latest was put out
by the Works Progress Administra
tion with paper covers in 1938.
Other compilations had preceded
it in hard covers in 1912, 1916, and
other dates.
The codification, now being pub
lished, differs from these in that
the whole book will be known as
an ordinance, and citations of city
legal provisions, now each an or
dinance in itself, will be by chap
ter and section.
It will be in loose-leaf binding
so later changes may easily re
place present enactments. Un
necessary matter has been deleted
by the publishers, who also do the
editing.
To avoid making the code too
large, most of (lie special codes,
such as the building and electrical
codes, are not included. The city
has most of them hound in sepa
rate booklets.
The planning code appears as
an appendix in the book for ttie
reason that when it is amended
the changes are preceded by pub
lic hearings. The city charter is
included in the codification prac
tically in full.
