mtm all for Tighter Rutij on Mi-Filibuster Mule Ike Favors Spending Cut Along With Tax Reduction Washington - lUTO - Former Pres dent DwlHt D. Else hower said today that any in come tax cut should be ac companied by a reduction in federal spending "right across the board." Elsenhower said that all government expenditures were "going up too fast." He also said the government was increasing all non defense Items as well as defense items and the space program. "I feel this Is a bad trend the former president said in a copyrighted Interview with U. S. News & World Report magazine. "People talk about reduc ing taxes, but how are you going to reduce taxes under such a condition rigm touay j Elsenhower asked. Reduction in Expenditures "I would like to see a very substantial tax cut, but I would like to see It accompa nied by a sufficient reduction in our expenditures right across the board I don't care where they fall but particularly including nonde fense items. "The aggregate reduction need not necessarily be equal in amount to the tax cut, but it would show the sincerity of the government in getting our fiscal affairs on a sane and sound basis." Eisenhower also made these comments: Cuba - The Cuban situa tion "is far from being solved." Soviet Premier Nl kita Khrushchev put missiles in Cuba "to see whether he could find a soft spot in our thinking and our will to re sist" and "I'm delighted to see he was made to move back." NATO - Americans "can not forever be deployed all around the world" and Euro pean allies should be doing more to strengthen their own defenses. "We ought to keep enough ground force there to show that we are really serious." War - "I do not think we are going to have a major war." As for nuclear conflict, "Since we don't Intend to trade nuclear stockpiles and they certainly don't want to, I think the danger becomes remote." Slno-Sovltt split - "No free nation can afford to drop its guard even an inch, and, al though we are delighted to see these Slno-Sovict differ ences develop, the fact is that we have to watch them." Labor - "Some of our trade union leaders are not taking the time to look at the total welfare of the United States." The chief concern of both un ion leaders and businessmen should be "What is good for the nation?" Regional Edition Page 2A MedfordWTribune MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JANUARY 7, 1963 Cuba Negotiations At UN Will End Formally Tuesday Washington - IUPI) - The United States notified the council of the Organization of American States that U. S.- Soviet negotiations on Cuba at the United Nations will formally end Tuesday. A report on the negotiations was given to the council in a closed session by Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson, who head ed the U. S. negotiating team. It was realiably learned he confirmed that the talks had been deadlocked because of Soviet refusal to offer safe guards through inspection against a future military buildup in Cuba such as '.he one that led to the October missile crisis. No Point Sit n High U. S. officials indicat ed during the week end that the talks at the United Na tions became so deadlocked after the Soviet Union agreed to the withdrawal of its of fensive weapons from Cuba that the administration saw no point in continuing them. Both the United States and Cuba are expected to make separate statements to UN Secretary-General Thant, giv ing their respective interpre tations of the settlement of the crisis It was understood that one reason for the deadlock of the UN talks was Soviet rcfusut to withdraw an estimated 10,000 or more troops sta tioncd in Cuba. Also there had been no progress on the U. S. demand for on-the-scene in spection to insure against the repetition of an offensive mili tary build-up. As a result, the United States will not offer the Soviet Union any formal guarantee against a military invasion of the island, even though Presi dent Kennedy repeatedly has stated that no such steps will be taken except in the event of a threat of attack, officials said. o I93B 00 1931 13T oo 00 1134 193S OO 1939 1940 OO 1943 1944 I94S OO0 14S 1949 I9S0 19SI !9Si O0 J9S3 19S4) I9SS I9SS 19ST o 1942 Nilsen Takes Oath For Third Term Salem - OIPD - Stale Labor Commissioner Norman O.

The senators presented their views in a 39-page le gal brief on the anti-filibuster rule - Rule 22. Their brief ar gued that the present rule, requiring the vote of two- thirds of the senators present to end debate, is "inequitable and undemocratic. Allows Extended Debate They argued for a proposal to cut off debate by a vote of 51 senators - a majority of the full Senate membership However, their plan would allow extended debate - as much as eight or nine weeks - before an issue finally was forced to a vote. Stressing the hurdle posed by the present rule to civil rights proposals, they said it has been the gravedigger for meaningful congressional ac tion in that field. But, they said, it also has let filibuster ing block and emasculate oth er important measures. "Two-thirds cloture simply cannot he obtained in those areas: where cloture is need ed," they said. The brief was circulated by Democratic Sens. Hubert H, Humphrey (Minn.), his party's Senate whip; Paul H. Douglas (111.), Joseph S. Clark (Pa.), and Philip A. Hart (Mich.), and by GOP Sens. Thomas H. Kuchel (Calif.), the Repub lican whip; Clifford P. Case (N.J.), Jacob K. Javits (N.Y.), and Kenneth B. Keating (N.Y.). Proposal Inadequate The eight senators contend ed that a proposed three-fifths cloture rule was not ade quate" and would not be sat isfactory. The proposal for cloture by three-fifths of the senators present is given the best chance of approval of any of the substitutes. Sen. Richard B. Russell 'D Ga.), the South's top strategist, said the forthcoming Senate battle over curbing filibusters posed a clear threat to Ken nedy's proposals in the new session starting Wednesday. Russell said in an interview that southern senators were likely to be unenthusiastic about the administration pro gram if they were forced into another filibuster fight. But Senate Democratic Leader Mike M a n s fi e 1 d (Mont.), disagreed. He said he expected the southerners to "fight their very hardest" against a rules change, but did not believe they would hold a grudge after the battle was over. Expects Clou Battle Mansfield told a reonrler that the outcome of the Senate lignt was "a toss-up." He said his policy would be to let everyone talk, and he declined to estimate how long he uiuugiu me oauic would last. In the House, the battle in volves the rules committee and its conservative chairman, Rep. Howard W. Smith (D Va.). Kennedy and his sup porters want to keep the com mittee at 15 members so ad ministration forces can swing enough votes to send contro versial bills to the floor. Smith said Sunday it was possible but not probable that he might lose by as many as 10 votes In his fight to force the committee to revert to 12 members. Liberals contend that Smith, with southern Democrats and Republican al lies, would hold the balance of power in a 12-man group. Denies JFK Charge Smith denied that "t h 1 s little old puny rules commit tee" would emasculate the ad ministration's legislative pro gram, as the President has charged. He said a majority of the House always could force a bill to the floor. This statement was chal lenged by Rep. Henry S. Re uss (D Wis.l. w ho called Smith "the lord high cmasculator." Reuss said "the graveyards are strewn with the corpses of legislative measures which he and his rules committee have hijacked." Meredith Not To Register for Spring Term Unless School Eases Harassment Oxford, Miss. - WPD - James Meredith, 29, said today he docs not plan to register for the next semester at the Uni versity of Mississippi unless the school takes steps to case the harassment that has made life difficult for him. Meredith, first Negro know ingly admitted to the univer sity, said he does not plan to register for the spring semes ter "unless very definite and positive changes are made to make my situation more con ducive to learning." There have been reports that Meredith was having ex treme difficulty with his class es, largely due to the pressure that has been all around him since his entrance on the cam pus during rioting the night of Sept. 30 caused two deaths and brought thousands of fed eral troops to the campus. Meredith said the decision not to continue unless his con ditions are met "was based on a consideration of all the ele ments pertinent to the 'Mis sissippi crisis' and its deepest meaning and of all the aspects of my personal relationships in it, with it and to it." Meredith, in a statement given to newsmen called to his dormitory room this morn ing, emphasized that his de cision "is not to attend the uni versity next semester under the present circumstances." He said "I have not made a decision to discontinue my ef forts to receive educational training at the University of Mississippi." "We are engaged in a war, a bitter war for the equality of opportunity for our cit izens," Meredith said. "The enemy is determined, re sourceful and unprincipled." The harassment that has made life on the campus dif ficult for the Kosciusko, Miss., native was emphasized Sun day night when crudely-printed handbills were distributed on the campus calling for "separation of the coon.from the curriculum" and the im- $35 Billion Gap in Depreciation Shown In 14-Year Period New York -fUPD ' There was a $35 billion gap between what industry in the United States was allowed for de preciation on its equipment and what should have been al located for this cost in a 14 year postwar period, accord ing to an American Economic Foundation study. The report came at a time when businessmen have be come perhaps more acutely conscious of depreciation al lowances because of recent government moves to allow acceleration of depreciation, and a tax credit on new tool investment. No Lasting Relief "Although steps In the right direction, these meas ures offer no substantial last ing relief," said the founda tion's study. The AEF's staff study ws built around statistics de veloped by Raymond W. Goldsmith in "The National Wealth of the United Stales in the Post War Period," pub lished by the National Bureau of Economic Research. His figures covered the years 1945-58 inclusive. Depreciation is the word used for the loss of value suf fered by tangible assets-machinery and equipment of a manufacturing company for example - through the passage of time, ordinary wear and tear, and other factors. Al lowance for this unavoidable loss is made on the books of a company, and in figuring its taxes. The villain in the thriller, the AEF says, is Inflation. Depreciation must, accord ing to law, be limited to the amount of money originally spent for a tool, it says. Tools Cost More "Were there no loss in the purchasing power of the dol lar, there would be no need for depreciation to exceed the acquisition cost, because the new tools would cost no more than those they replaced," said the study. "But in the presence of in flation the new tool costs more, and because of this the amount set aside must be more if the business is to pre serve its capital." The study said further if there were no tax on corpor ate profits, inflation would be a normal business risk and price increases would normal ly give the extra earnings to provide the extra depreciation reserve. But, it says, the tax on corporate income, usually 52 per cent, forces a corpora tion to earn more than an extra $2 to get its hands on $1 that can be used to make up the deficit.
