Protestant broadcasters not re-

Policy Agreement Reached
AS it stands today. the council
has reached agreement with the
National Association Of Radio
and Television Broadcasters on
a policy calling for stations and
networks to provide substantial
amounts Of free time for re-
ligious broadcasting.
The NRB. opening its conven-
ton here. contends that this has
worked to the benefit of couneil
members because the highly Or
ganized council has come to be
regarded by radio and TV opera
tors as the spokesman for all
Professionalism.
With the best religious time
committed to free broadcasts.
the NRB says. many broadcast
ers feel they have fulfilled their
public service obligations and
are reluctant to allot more time
to churches, even on a paid basis.

Cincinnati. NRB president, said
the convention would discuss a
new strategy for the preeserva-
ton of the right to purchase

Cooper Hoping
For Tax Relief

Hope for individual income
tax relief by next year is held
out by Representative Cooper,
Democrat Of Tennessee, chair
man of the House Ways and
Means Committee.
Mr.. Cooper yesterday placed
unusual emphasis on the
heavy burden" of taxes now
being borne by taxpayers in a
lengthy statement celebrating
on tax hearings scheduled to
open before his committee jan
uary /.
1T is my hope that some re-
lief from these burdens can
be achieved next year as a
result Of our hearings and
study" he said.
AS the chief tax spokesman
for House Democrats, Mr..
Cooper pointed strongly toward
a renewed determination by
Democratic leaders to bring
out q tax relief bill at the next
session Of Congress.
Tax action at the last ses-
sion was postponed after a poll
icy switch late in the session.
largely as a result Of uncer-
tainty over budget and none
tary difficulties bearing on in
fiation.
In his statement expanding
on his original announcement
of the tax hearings. Mr.. Cooper
said the committee would look
into basic policies underlying
our tax laws" in a study Of
what he indicated were dis
criminatory provisions in the
law affecting the small tax
payer.
THE main volume Of the in
dividual income tax comes from
the low and middle income
groups" he stated.
These groups, because they
are primarily recipients Of
earned income, cannot avail
themselves Of preferential rates
and tax differentials which are
available to many Of the re-
cipients Of other types Of in
come"
Mr.. Cooper said tax relief
could be achieved by cutting
Government spending, by elm
mating unnecessary expenses
and by Spreading the burden
of taxation equitably and fairly
among the various groups Of
the tax paying public"
About 1000 tax bills--one OF
the largest bodies Of proposed
legislation in one session--are
now pending before his com.
mittee.
