The revised plan was out lined Monday to the House Ways and Means committee by Treasury Secretary Doug las Dillon. It would take ef fect next Jan. 1, and provide net tax reductions of $10.6 billion for Individuals and cor porations with the relief stag gered over two years. Compared with Kennedy's original $10.3 billion tax-cut ting program, the new plan would provide slightly more total tax relief and more would go to individuals and less to corporations. But its chief political attrac tion was that it was burdened with fewer of the tax-tightening provisions that made Ken nedy's original plan so con troversial. To compensate for this rev enue loss, the new plan would provide reductions averaging 20 per cent in individual tax rates, compared with 23.3 per cent in the original plan. The initial response of in fluential committee Demo crats was so favorable that it seemed possible the commit tee might approve the new plan with only relative minor tailoring, if It decided to vote for tax cuts of $10 billion or more. But that was a big "if." The magnitude of the tax reduction was the big issue still undecided as the com mittee summoned Dillon for a second day of questioning behind closed doors. The com mittee was not expected to begin voting on the proposed rate cuts before Thursday. Main Features The main features of the revised plan: -Individual tax rates would range from 14 to 70 per cent Instead of the pres ent 20-91 per cent schedule originally recommended by the administration. The low est rate of 14 per cent would apply to the first $300 in tax able income of the single person and the first $1,000 of taxable income ol mar ried persons with Joint re turns. The top rate of 70 per cent would apply to all tax able Income in excess of $100,000 for single persons ($200,000 for married couple filing Jointly). -Taxes on corporation in come in excess of $25,000 would be reduced from the present 82 per cent to 48 per cent. That compares with the 47 per cent rate which the administration initially pro posed. The tax rate on the first $23,000 of corporate earnings would be lowered to 23 per cent from the present 30 per cent. The administra tion originally proposed a 22 per cent levy. -Limit the revenue-producing revisions in tax structure to less than one-third of the $3.3 billion originally advo cated, So far as individuals arc concerned, the revised plan called for adoption of only two major structural changes which have not al ready won committee ap proval. All of the committee- voted changes wore accepted by the administration. , One of the two additional revisions It rccom mended would' provide a new "mini, mum standard deduction" tin' dcr which many families with low Incomes would be able to claim deductions in excess of the present 10 per cent stand ard. This would provide tax savings of $310 million for such taxpayers. The other ad ditional change would gain $370 million in new revenue by repealing the preference in tax rates on income from stock dividends in excess of $50 a year for single persons and $100 for married couples.

(UPI) Portugal Plans To Keep African Territories Lisbon, Portugal -IUPII- Pre mier Antonio de Oliveira Sal azar pledged Portugal's deter mination Monday night to hold on to its African terri tories despite mounting pres sure from Western Allies and independent African nations. In a nationwide radio and television broadcast, the 74-year-old premier said Portu gal will defend "to the limit of our human and material resources" its position in An gola, Mozambique and Portu guese Guinea. It was Salazar's first major policy speech in more than a year. He warned the U n 1 1 e d States It is pursuing a policy in Africa parallel to that of Russia. Salazar called the Russian policy "coherent and logical" in terms of Commu nist objectives. But he said U. S. policy "Involves a serious principle of contradiction" because it is bringing about the end of European political Influence in Africa and dealing a blow to Western defenses. The premier repeated last year's threat that Portugal would be "among the first" nations to abandon the United Nations. He brushed off oppo sition to Portuguese African policies within the United Na tions and called the world body a "menace to peace and to the orderly life of nations" since the massive entry of Afro-Asian nations. The . UN Security Council voted a limited arms embargo on Portugal July 31 and call ed for a ban on the sale of weapons for use against na tionalists who have carried .on rebel activity for some lime in the Portuguese territories. Chicago Integrationists Renew Siege at School By United Press International Integrationists planned an other siege today at a mo bile school site on Chicago's turbulent South Side where pickets Monday charged po lice lines in a demonstration that erupted into a rock-hurling brawl. At least 50 persons were arrested in the demonstration, which stretched out over the day and reached a climax when the pickets charged the police and hurled rocks. Hard pressed police threw bodyblocks and tackled the demonstrators in attempts to prevent them from hindering workers laying down pipe for an emplacement of the trailer-like classrooms. The demonstrators re mained at the site laic Mon day night and promised they would return today. Car, Train Collide At Main St. Site An auto and a Southern Pacific switch engine collided about 6:20 p.m. yesterday at the Main st. railroad crossing, according to Medford city po lice reports. Police said the driver of the car, Robert Broadus Web ber, 40, of route 2. box 443B, was not injured. Operator of the engine was Vestal Lavern Powell, Crcswell, Ore. Webber told officers he was blinded by the sun and did not see either the switch en gine or the warning signals. The engine struck the car's left front fender at a speed between 10 to 15 miles per hour. No citations were issued. The scene of frequent dem onstrations, the mobile school site is being prepared for the start of public school classes next month. Integrationists have charg ed that the classrooms would help further alledgcd de fac to segregation of the city s schools. A federal judge in Bir mingham, Ala., Monday or dered four Negro students ad mitted to white schools in Huntsville, Ala., in Septem ber. District Court Judge H. H. Groom also ordered the school board to submit a plan for complete desegregation by Jan. 1. It was the third school de segregation ordered in Ala bama, one of three southern states including South Caro lina and' Mississippi which have no integration in public grade schools. The two other cities in the state facing de segregation orders are Birm ingham and Mobile.
