Makins Says Britain
And U. 5. Differ on
Methods, Not Aims

Sir Roger Makins, in his first
public speech as the British
Ambassador. said yesterday that
the principal differences between
his government and the United
States are not differences of
detectives but of methods.
The Ambassador told a lunch
con at the National Press Club
that great deal more has been
said about Anglo-American diff
ferenceS than about Anglo
American agreement. But, he
added. the area of agreement is
incalculably greater than that
Of difference.
Let us not forget" he said,
that on major objectives of
policy in international affairs,
her majesty's government and
the American Government are
agreed. Our aims are common
ones; IN the United Nations. in
NATO. in Europe, in the Middle
East and in the Far East.
What we are disposed to argue
about is the method of attaining
these objectives and our appre-
citation or estimates of particu-
lar situations. I do not for a
moment minimize the import
ance of these arguments; the
estimates may be so divergent,
the methods may be so debat-
able, that they give rise to diff
ferences which basically affect
policy.
''Yet they are essentially Sec
Ondary differences and if there
is time for proper discussion be-
tween representatives of the two
of us, I have rarely found that
much of a difference remains at
the end of the day."
The ambassador said it will be
one of his principal tasks to
make sure that any difference
of appreciation or method are
fully, cogently and clearly ar
gued out with representatives of
your Government; for I can not
foresee that shall ever have
to argue about our common OBJ
jectives."

Automatic Tax Cut
Plan Gains Support
In Maryland Senate
By Gene Goodwin
Star Stoff Correspondent

ANNAPOLIS, Jan. ga bill
to adapt Virginia's automatic
tax reduction plan to Maryland
seemed to have substantial sup
port in the State Senate today.
But confidants of Gov. Nickel
din indicated he doesn't like it.
The bill was introduced in the
Senate yesterday by the II DEM
ocratic Senators who tried un-
successfully at the opening of
the current General Assembly to
install one of their men as Sen
ate president. They lost when
the Republicans stepped into the
deadlock and threw their votes
to Senator George w. Della of
Baltimore for a second term In
the chair.
The bill provides that Mary
land taxpayers would get an au-
tomato income tax cut when a
substantial surplus in State gen.
eral funds was built up.
Return in Form of Credits.
The controller, each August /.
starting in 1854, would figure
out how much general fund rev.
enue receipts in the preceding
fiscal year had exceeded origi-
nal estimates. If that amount
turned out to be 5 per cent nr
more of estimated income tax
collections in that year. the total
would be given back to the tax
payers in the form of credit on
their next income tax return.
The plan is patterned after
the Virginia law passed n 1850.
Gov. McKeldin is said to be
concerned about adapting such
a plan to Maryland because he
feels it would hinder the execu-
tive in plotting State expendi-
lures.
Would Fool Taxpayers.
He is reported to be in SYM
pathy with this general criti-
cism of the plans:
It would be fooling the tax
payers to give them an auto
matte tax cut because they un-
doubtedly would have to pay
higher taxes if surplus funds
cannot be used to balance the
budget. as they have been for
the last two years.
One of the Governors fiscal
assistants, James G.. Rennie,
State budget director. said the
Virginia adapted plan would
mean either a tax increase or
a drastic cut in the State serv-
Ices.
But many lawmakers, includ-
ing those of the Governors own
Republican Party do not share
his concern about the scheme.
In fact, two of the State Sen
ators. John Raymond Fletcher,
Republican. of Prince Georges
and Senate Floor Leader Louis
L. Goldstein, Democrat, of Cal
vert-said they had intended to
introduce similar bills them
selves,
The measure also can be ex-
pected to pick up considerable
support in the House, whose
members this year, are. If any
thing, more economy minded
than the Senators.
