They smashed windows, burned houses, looted stores and, (or three days, clashed with police. I Trie reason? Romulo Betaneourtisphere. had just been elected president of Venezuela. I From that time to this, Com munist "riot specialists" and dis gruntled troublemakers from los ing parties far right or far left have given Romulo Betancourt little rest. j zuela, the buffer nation between South America and the explosive Caribbean.

At 9:20 a.m. on June 24, I960, Betancourl's enemies struck their most daring blow: a bomb acti vated by micro-wave shattered a parked car just as the presiden tial car passed.

Betancourt lived. lomatic boycott they voted was the beginning of the end for Tru. jillo, victim of an assassination one year later. By the end of 1961, it was clear that the far left as a political force capable of controlling the "masses" was finished. Nowhere was that more evident than dur ing the December, 1961, visit to! Venezuela of President Kennedy. Instead of the rocks and riots that met Vice President Richard ixon 30 months before, Kenne dy was greeted by huge welcom ing throngs. Decline Sets In Early in 1962, the far left re sorted to terrorism and subver sion, though continuing to operate freolv on the political front. Their; decline coincided almost exactly with the decline of Cuba's Fidel Castro. The objectives of the Commu nists are apparent: snake inves tor confidence in the country, thereby creating economic hard ships, and sabotage the presiden tial elections of this fall. The December elections will mark the first time in Venezue lan history that one freely elected government turned over power to a freely-elected successor. Venezuela is vital to the West for political, strategic and eco nomic reasons. President Kenne dy recognized this in the warm welcome he gave Betancourt last February in Washington. "You are," Kennedy told Betan court, "a svmbol of what we want for our own country and our sister republics lot Latin America I. It is no accident that you and your country have been marked as the principal target in their (Communist) efforts to elim inate you, and all that you stand for, and the progress you repre sent. . ."

The committee also nailed down its decision to exclude state and: local taxes on liquor and cigar ettes as a federal tax deduction It took tliese and other steps calculated to produce a net gain of $603 million in new revenue as it began a final round of voting on the compromise version of Presi. dent Kennedy's tax-reduction-and. revision program. The committee expects to take at least three days drafting the final version of the bill. So far the committee has ten tatively approved structural tax revisions that would net little more than $700 million of the $31 billion sought by Kennedy to part ly offset revenue losses from rate cuts. However, some of the commit-1 lee's tentative tax-tightening deci sions nave started to come un stuck as a result of tugging by the taxpayers who would be af fected. For example', oilmen were re- which the group had agreed to levy on them. Kennedy had recommended more than $200 million in new taxes on the oil and gas indus try. Republican committee leaders were trying to knock out a provi sion that would deny motorists the right to include in their item ized tax deductions amounts paid in state and city gasoline taxes. This provision would net $200 mil lion in annual revenue. MORE ALLIED SHIPS WASHINGTON (UPI) Allied ships sailing to Cuba outnumber Russian freighters in Cuban trade according to Rep. Paul Rogers, D-Fla. Rogers told the House Tuesday that 44 Allied ships went to Cuba in May compared to 38 Russian vessels.
