House Unit Compromising On JFK's Plan For Tax Cut WASHINGTON (UP1I - The Kennedy administration is com promising a little on how much of a tax cut it will accept for in dividual taxpayers. The compromising is going on in the House Ways & Means Committee, which is in the midst of making key decisions on what President Kennedy's tax program will look like when it finally goes to a vote. The all-important verdict on how much of a tax break the committee is willing to give Mr. Average Taxpayer is still to come. Individual Ipx rt- es now range from 20 to 91 per cent. Kennedy originally recommended that the range be lowered to 14 to 65 per cent. Now the administration is willing to settle for a 15 to 75 per cent scaic. I As a rough average, this would Be a reduction of about one-sixth on individual income taxes. Influential convervative Demo crats on the committee are seek ing to trim the amount of tax reduction Kennedy requested. There are two main reasons for this. The "puritan-minded" con servatives who support a bal anced budget wish to hold down the amount of reduction in fed eral income at a time when the government is running a big budget delicit. The other reason is that the committee thus far has failed to approve many of Kennedy's income-raising changes to offset part of the tax reductions. The pressure therefore is to trim the tax reductions accordingly. Kennedy proposed $13.6 billion in tax rate cuts, and $3.2 billion Animal Fair Answer to Previous Puiile 3Hc ACROSS 1 Carnivorous mammal 4 Huskies, tor instance 8 Young cow 1 The whole 13 Mountain (comb, form) 14 Wings 15 Unit of reluctance 16 Torment 18 Caustic (med.) 21) Musteline mammal 21 Footlike part 22 Striplings 24 Sunk fence 26 Withered 27 Pedal digit 30 European butterfly 32 Mean 34 Made taut 35 Pilfered 36 City In the Netherlands 37 Horse's neck hairs 39 Plateau 40 Calliope 41 Corded fabric 42 Fall flower 45 Discomfited 41) Assures aiicA' 51 Kges 52 Containers 53 Ooze 54 Recent 55 Kill 56 Crafts 57 Sea eagle DOWN IHjFMl I IglANl AM eil3RIA HNWaImM fsjl MisVvrelL lismsWnI Iem UMSJS DIQeKH Imi a n mSmeWa! s;p as elsffBSsmH :- sgIIkor AnIIa yr PB-t I I IPI II llM.Ti I MIA condemned one 31 Nocturnal fi Dismounted mammals 10 Waste in sloth .1.1 Heavy volumes m (.loser 40 Untidy 41 Grates 42 Circle parts 4.1 Fur-bearing sea animal 44 Shrew squirrel 46 Vegetable in tax increases, (or a net $10.4 billion reduction. The committee so far has approved tax increases amounting to only $600 million, but may raise tins around the $1 bil lion mark. The committee already has been criticized by the AFL-CIO for considering lesser cuts for in dividual taxpayers, especially low income families. On the other ex treme, business interests are pressuring the committee to ap prove the full $2.6 billion cut in corporation taxes recommended by Kennedy.

By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: I just read your column on young girls wlw are being turned into sex kittens by over-anxious mothers who want t h e daughters to bo popular. You mentioned eye make-up, nylons and heels for skinny legged 11 - year olds, basketball hair-do's on 13-year-olds and going steady at 14. The over-anxious mothers are getting a great assist from the eager characters who try to sep arate the fool from his dollar. Listen to this ad which appeared in a newspaper in another city. A friend sent it with a one-word note: "Sickening!" "Teen accounts welcomed. Rings with diamonds for the girl you are going with. Beautiful twin hearts with a sparkling diamond. Only $11.95. Can be paid out at 50 cents a week. Open your teen account today. In the same ad was a pic ture of the "Princess diamond ring lor your steady girl." This was priced at $39.50 and could be had for $1 a week. It boasted 15 brilliant diamonds." 1 would like your opinion of this. PLEN TY OLD-FASHIONED Dear Plenty: Your friend's one- word comment expresses my sen timents perfectly. But don't blame the manufacturer, the advertiser or the retailer. They don't create customers. They simply give the customers what they want. Teen-agers who have been raised with decent values will laugh at such nonsense. Tuesday. June 23, 1963 PACE Ti IIKRALO AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon Dear Ann Landers: I address myself to the woman who calls herself a doctor's wife and signed her letter "Amazed At Your Ig norance." I wish someone would remind these doctors' wives who are afraid their husbands might gel a call at home that they chose the profession because they want ed to help people. The same goes for ministers. 1 am sick of hear ing wives of doctors and clergy men complain because they are inconvenienced at odd hours. We wonder why mental prob lems are on the increase'.' One reason may be that ministers and doctors arc no longer available for consultation. They avoid you I like the plague if they think you want to discuss a problem. Peo ple have no one to talk to any moreand their troubles grow into illnesses. Yes, I know there are psychi- atrkU anrt analvsU hut thpv have no titnee in the beginning: oniv after people are too sick to get help elsewliere.- And not every one can afford treatment. So please tell these so-called humanitarians" that service means putting the needs of others first. It they don't want to be bothered let them do something else and stop calling themselves doctors and ministers. PITTS BURGH CITIZEN Dear Pittsburgh: It is grossly unfair to put all doctors and clergymen in the same barrel and tar them with the same brush. I know many doctors and clergy men who are dedicated to public service. I'm sorry you don't know them, too your life would be in compr bly richer if you did. Dear Ann: Last winter I went on a strict diet and lost 45 pounds. 1 would not enter a Miss Universe contest but my figure is vastly improved and I'm proud of myself. 1 have not owned a bathing suit' since I was 9 because I was so (at I refused to be seen in one. Of course I don't know how to swim. Would it be ridiculous for me to buy a suit this year and go to the beach? My mother says it's a crazy idea. She claims it's the same as carrying a racket when you can't play tennis. Do you agree with lr?-EX-HIPPO Dear Ex: No. Buy a bathing suit, go to the beach and get someone to teach you to swim. i J 30 iL Refuge Chief Promoted ALTURAS The United States Fish and Wildlife Service an nounced this week the transfer and promotion of Paul Steel, man ager of the Modoc Wildlife Ref uge, to assistant regional refuge supervisor in Region S.
