A worker in this salary brack-! et, it says, is estimated to have a federal income tax burden of about $600. Of this $600, national security accounts for about $362. The next largest item is INTER EST ON THE NATIONAL DEBT, which accounts for about $61. Which is to say: If the man who earns about $6,000 a year gets a reduction in his $600 a year federal income tax burden (which will result in continuing federal DEFICITS) whatever he saves by the present reduction will eventually result in additional taxes for INTEREST on the growing national debt, of which he will have to pay his share. It doesn't seem to make much sense, does it? In case you earn about $6,000 a year and your federal income tax runs about $600 year, you may be interested in just where your federal tax dollar goes.

Goldwater, the leading GOP presidential contender in public opinion polls, called up his res ervation to the treaty as Sen. Thomas J.

It marked the major hurdle lor the treaty, which is assured of ratification Tuesday. The Arizona senator made U clear that he will "vote against the treaty with or without this reservation." But he made a strong plea to senators who plan to back the treaty, which bars all but underground nuclear tests. "Meaningful Price" "If you must vote for this treaty, then, in your nation's name and in the name of the trust your nation has placed upon you, demand at least this single, honorable, appropriate and mean ingful price." Goldwater said. Pages As the price for renewing the bases agreement, Spain was said to be insisting on two major points: Increased political and mill tary consultation with Washington to remove her from the status of a "second-class ally.".

They were told to "extensively Dane Ferry Aids Family Escape Reds TRAVEMUENDE, Germany (UPI) Martin Helms' carefully, planned escape from Communist East Germany appeared doomed Saturday night. The outboard motor on his kayak had failed and an East German patrol boat was closing in fast. Helms, a 30-year-old sports in structor, had put his 29-year-old wife Bettina and 5-year-old daugh ter Kirsten in the small boat earlier that night. They had slipped away from East German territory and were m internation al walers heading for West Ger many when the engine stopped. As the Communist patrol boat approached, Helms knew what would follow. They would be ar rested, perhaps shot. At the very least he would get a jail term for fleeing the republic." But another crew also was watching Helms' kayak as it bobbed helplessly on the waves. The officers of the Danish ferry Gedser, which skirts the Iron Cur tain regularly on its Baltic Sea runs, sized up the situation. Or ders were shouted from the bridge, engine room bells clanged, and the Gedser swung suddenly from Us course. The big ocean-going ferry sliced through the waters between the kayak and the Communist patrol boat, cutting off the Helms fam ily from their pursuers. Then, as its 400 passengers cheered from the railings, the Gedser provided protection while a West German freighter sped to the kayak and picked up Helms and his wife and daughter. into I he Sioux Indian Nation In a colorful ceremony Sunday night in a downtown hotel lobby. It was performed by six chiefs, six women and three children all descendants of the great, late Sit ting Bull. It was led by Sitting Bull's grandson, Frank White Buffalo Man. Since the Fischer fivesome could not be present, on account of being kept on the incubator reservation, they were represent ed by the president of the Aber deen Chamber of Commerce, E. C. Pieplow.

He said his reserva tion is a "step far short of war." He told Javits he would not have offered his proposal if he did not think there was a chance the Russians would bow to it and pull their weapons, warheads and personnel out of Cuba. Responding to a suggestion by Javits that such a restriction might hurt Premier Nikila Khru shchev in Russia's dealings with Red China, Goldwater said his proposal merely asked that they "keep their word."

"Until very recently, the prog ress of tlie military effort of tlie South Vietnamese, assisted by the U. S. government, against the Communist Viet Cong, was pro ceeding very satisfactorily," Mc Namara said. The defense secretary said the purpose of tlie hurry-up mission will be to determine whether that military effort has been ad versely affected by the unrest in the. past few weeks, This was an apparent reference to recent alleged repressions by the Diem government against Buddhists, students and intellec tuals in South Viet Nam.

Rescue came at 3:30 a.m. PDT The boy had been on the cliff since about 9 a.m. Sunday. He had been camping with his par ents near diversion dam in Home Gulch near Augusta. He sat throughout ;he day and night 125 feet above the canyon floor on a ledge just wide enough1 to hold him while rescuers tried several methods of reaching him, including a helicopter, before de ciding to build the ladder.

He asked: "Are wo so afraid of our posi tion on Cuba that we dare not put it to the test? Are we so con vinced that the Soviet w ill never honor that position? Are we ac tually saying that they have, in fact, no intention of truly seeking to ease tension? Then why this treaty at all?" "Here's a chance to test the enemy out."
