Reaction To Kennedy's
Tax Cut Decision Varied
Washington- IUPII -Reaction
to President Kennedy's decis
ion to put off a tax cut until
next year ranged today from
a business leader's "disap
pointment" to a Republican
cry of "politics."
Most lawmakers seemed to
approve of the decision. But
there were new demands for
a reduction in federal spend
ing before any tax cut
voted.
Ladd Plumley, president of
the U.S. Chamber of Com
merce, said he was disap
pointed that Kennedy felt a
tax cut could not be enacted
now. However, he said, the
difference between a cut now
and one next January was not
of "great significance."
Republican National Chair
man William E. Miller
charged that the President's
address was "a partisan po
litical speech In a very thin
disguise."
Senate Finance Committee
Chairman Harry S. Byrd (D
Va.) a leading economy ad
vocate, took the occasion to
denounce big federal spending.
Byrd said the only reason
for high taxes was high fed
eral spending. "The Presi
dent said he would submit a
tax bill in January," Byrd
said. "He will submit his
budget for the next fiscal year
at the same time. In this com.
bination, he will have an op
portunity to indicate whether
he proposes to reduce expen-
is I ditures or to cut taxes with
borrowed money."
Chairman Wilbur D. Mills
(D-Ark.) of the House Ways
and Means committee, endors
ed Kennedy's decision and
Rep. Hale Boggs (D-La.) a
member of the committee,
said the move was "wise."
GOP Chairman Miller said
that Kennedy "as much as
promised'' the voters they
would get a lax cut only if
they elected a Democratic
controlled Congress in No
vember. ."The people can safely
elect a Republican Congress
which believes not only in tax
cuts but in spending cuts as
well," Miller said.
Kennedy "went out of his
way," Miller said, lo say that
he had cleared the decision
with the Democratic chairman
of key congressional commit
tees, "thereby making plain
that election of Republicans
might jeopardize the tax re
duction." Sens. Paul H. Douglas (D.
III.) and George A. Smathers
(D-FIa ), members of Byrd's
tax-writing committee, said
Kennedy's speech was "an
excellent slalement."

Weight Lifters
Desert Team
In Jamaica
Kingston, Jamaica - DPI) -Four
Cuban weight lifters
and their coach, here for the
ninth Central American and
Caribbean Games, were ex
pected to pick up visas today
that would enable them lo
gain political asylum in the
United Slates.
The five Cubans, one of
whom lost his match earlier,
rocked gamej officials Mon
day night when they deserted
their delegation and went
into hiding. Their exact
whereabouts was unknown,
but Miguel Roldan, director
of the Catholic Center in
Kingston, said they are "hid
den in safe places" awaiting
permission to travel lo the
Unltr '. Stales.
Doors Left Open
The Catholic organization,
which reportedly helped 11,
000 Cuban refugees get to
Mi. mi, ..as left its doors open
to all refugees in need of aid
to get to the United States.
This island nation was grant
ed independence only last
week.
The organizers of the games
have t-icd hard to avoid poli
tical incidents, but they admit
that they have been power
less. The games officially got
under way Monday night fol
lowing ceremonies on Satur
day. But light from the start,
the Cubans have been attract
ing attention to themselves by
their boasting of athletic su
periority. As a result politics
instead of athletic prowess has
commanded most of the atten
tion here.
Deserters Identified
The five Cubans who de
serted their team were identi
fied as Julio Cespcdes, coach;
bantamweight lifter Ignacio
Herrera, who lost his first
match; middleweight Gerardo
Diaz, welterweight Sergio Oli
va, and lightweight Juan Tor
res.
The desertions look place
shortly before the slart of the
weightlifling competition at a
local theater. It came after
Cuban officials had tried to
impress other delegations by
saying their country had con
verted itself into a "major
sports power" in the Carib
bean. Athletic coaches from
the Soviet Union have been in
Cuba for several months help
ing train the Cuban team for
their games.

The violence, marking the
first anniversary of the build
