Mr.. Eisenhower confirmed that
q detachment of four or i've
Americans is on one Of the

pear to attach much importance
to this. He said he assumed that
the American commander In the

He termed q good question an
inquiry about what compliance
with a cease fire in the Formosa

Of their violations of the korean

Gratis not to seek action.
2. They think Mr.. Eisenhower
and the Republicans are plan
ming an income tax cut of their
own for next year. The Presi-
dents budget message expressed
such a hope.
3. Tacking the income tax cut
TO the corporate and excise tax
extensions, they feel, makes the
plan almost vetoproof. because
the net effect still would be q
gain In revenue and Mr.. Eisen-
hover would lose more by Veto
ing the combined bill than by
letting it take effect. The same
argument. they believe, would
help get the bill by Senator Byrd
chairman Of the Senate Finance
Committee.
4. The fiscal picture has been
frightened somewhat by Mr..
Eisenhower's estimate Of q deficit
next year Of more than So billion
below the $4.5 billion anticipated
for the current year. And the
Republicans have promised even
more progress toward q balanced

Citizenship Data
Taboo,U.S.Says

Names of informers and con-
Ifidential reports cannot be di-
vulged in the Saul Horwatt de-
naturalization case. the Govern
ment claims in papers on file at
Alexandria District Court.
The Government is seeking to
revoke the citizenship of Saul
B. Horwatt, Falls Church elec-
trical contractor, on grounds he
was active in Communist organ
iizations seeking to overthrow the
United States Government.
A shield of secrecy was thrown
around names of informers and
reports in papers filed by Assist
ant United States Attorney Har-
Ian Freeman. He claims in
answer to a defense motion that
existing executive orders forbid
disclosure of informers' names or
confidential reports.
Earlier. the Government had
agreed to furnish the defense a
list of the reports. the dates COM
piled and the names of the per-
sons who compiled them. This
the Government did. But the per-
sons named were agents for the
Immigration and Naturalization
Service. and the reports were
identified without divulging their
contents.
Close to 100 reports and memo
randa are identified, and the
Government contends in practi-
cally every instance that the re-
ports cannot be turned over to
the defense because the names
Iof confidential informers are con-
Itained in them.
One of the documents involved
lis a transcript of a closed hear
ing before a Senate subcommittee
on immigration. The Govern
ment claims it cannot turn this
over to the defense because it has
been marked confidential. About
the only thing the Government
agrees to show the defense is a
report on an arrest record which
the Government claims is Hor-
watts.
