Revenue Service
 Slaps Liens on Gov. Lee Property

SALT LAKE CITY, R-Utah's Gov. J. Bracken Lee has accused the federal government of trying to duck a court test of the consti- nationality of using income taxes to finance it's foreign aid program.
 Lee made the accusation yester- day after the Internal Revenue Service slapped liens on his prop erty to collect the $1 ,203.10 it says he owes in income taxes. The liens didn't have to be procured in court.
 The Republican governor says he is refusing to pay the tax in hopes of winning a court test of the governments right to spend tax money for foreign aid.
 Lee declared yesterday:
 AS matters stand, citizen seemingly has no means to test a constitutional question on govern ment spending, despite the fact our government derives it's pow CTS from the people"
 He said the Internal Revenue Service ''has been vested with more power than any government agency should have"

Lebanon Sides With Syria
 Against Israel

JERUSALEM, R-Lebanon to- day lined up formally with Syria in refusing to pledge a cease-fire with Israel unless the IsraeliS promise not to divert the Jordan River.
 Israel was reported to have al ready turned down the Syrian de- mand for such a pledge.
 Lebanon's condition for a cease fire agreement was conveyed in a note to JUN. Secretary General Dag Hammarskiold as he left ter usalem for Damascus and last minute talks with Syrian leaders in the water dispute. The Leba- nese communication added urgen- cy to his appeal to Syria for an unconditional cease-fire.
 After Hammarskjold arrived in Damascus, he and his aides imme- diately drove from the airport to the Foreign Ministry to meet Syr- ian officials.
 He had planned to leave today for Rome to prepare his report for the JUN. Security Council on his Middle East peace mission.
 Lebanon's action was regarded as significant chiefly for the added support it gives Syria, since only minor border incidents have oc- cured on the Israeli Lebanon frontier.
 Lebanese Foreign Minister Sa- linn Lahoud said in his message Lebanon supports Syria in de- manding a written pledge Israel will not resume work on the Jor- dan River project. He also said Lebanon reserves the right of self defense against any Israeli at tack.

 Urging government action to hold down rising prices, Ray D. Murphy suggested in an address at the US. Chamber of Commerce annual meeting that Congress should arm the Federal Reserve Board with standby power to con- trol consumer installment credit and home mortgage terms.

 The use of the term North At lantic community" in both state ments was considered significant. That community includes such non-NATO members as Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.
 However, Dulles made it plain he still regards the military as- poets of the Nato alliance as essen poets of the NATO alliance as essential. He said NATO's strength and unity had contributed to a friendlier Soviet policy
 Other problems such as the Pal estine and Cyprus crises and Rus sian policy were certain to draw Dulles attention also, particularly at preliminary meetings with British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd and French Foreign Minis ter Christian Pineau
