terday as play began in the chess
match here between the United
States and Russia but the chief
interest was in the match be-

At least a thousand Moscow

By the Associasse Pres

Senator Byrd, Democrat. bi
Virginia said today It viii be
hard for the administration to
come up with any tax-cutting
plan next year in view Of the
tight rein Congress Is holding
on the debt ceiling.
Senator Byrd said it is his
view that the Treasury should
return to operations under the
SITS billion ceiling. the perma-
nent figure fixed by law. If at
all possible.
However, the Virginian went
along this year with a one-year
extension Of the temporary $28l
billion limit. Senate approval
anticipated today would send the
extension bill to the White
House: the House passed it Mon
day.
President Eisenhower is un-
derstood to be planning to sign
the measure at once. The pres
ent temporary 1921 billion cell
ing, voted by Congress year
ago as a compromise after the
President asked a higher perma-
nent limit, expires at midnight.
Tight Squeeze, Humphrey Says
Treasury Secretary Humphrey
yesterday told the Finance Com
mittee, which Senator Byrd
heads, that he could scrape by
with the $281 billion limit in
the next year, although he said
it would be a close squeeze in
some months.
It was learned that Mr.. Hum
phrey was asked in the secret
session about any tax-cutting
plans for 1856. but that he de-
Iclined to answer.
Many Democratic lawmakers
have speculated that the Re-
publicans will come up with, tax
relief proposals next session just
i'm advance of the presidential
ELECTION. Mr.. Eisenhower said In
his State of the Union message
in January he was hopeful OF
further tax reduction in 1856.
