"Treat" Money Goes
To United Fund DriUe

The unusual enthusiasm for the
current United Fund campaign is
reflected this week in a report
that a mems bridge club, which
usually completes a period of
play with the losers treating the
winners, had decided to use their
banquet money for the UF drive.
The $40 bill set aside for the
treat will go, instead to the UF
fund, the I6 bridge club members
voted unanimously.

Aug. 81 R. - Segregationist
John Kasper started his cam
paign against indignation in
North Carolina with speeches
today at Winston Salem ana
Greensboro. two Of the cities
which plan to admit Negro
children to previously all-white
schools next week.
He said he plans to speak to-
morrow at Charlotte. the third
city which plans limited inte-
grafton when schools open
Wednesday.
He received a mixed recep-
ton in his two speeches today.
At Winston-Salem, he was
heckled out of Courthouse
Square by a group Of about 200
white and Negro citizens.
Kasper later moved to a
garage In the south end of tn ,
city and started organizing a
White Citizens Council to ops
pose indignation. Winston
Salem plans to admit one
Negro child to a white school.
At Greensboro a crowd of
300 heard him in silence, with
only a few on each side of the
indignation issue exchanging
remarks or jeers at each other.
Kasper came to North Caro-
lima last night from Nashville,
Tenn. where he has been &C.
tive in opposing the registra-
ton Of first-grade Negro chill

Chesney Martin, chairman Of
the Federal Reserve Board. He
was replying to q series Of ques-
tons put to him recently by
Senator Byrd, Democrat Of Vir-
ginia, chairman Of the Senate
Finance Committee which has
been holding hearings on the
Nations fiscal policies.
Mr.. Martin said there are
certain influences now at work
that have been tending to slow
down price increases. He said
the favorable factors were in
creased savings, Increased in
dustrial capacity. and q cut
back in businessmen's demands
for more goods to increase in
ventories.
Pay Demands Weighed
/ The Federal Reserve chair
man said 1t was extremely dif-
ficult to pinpoint just how
much infationary pressure
there might be in organized
labor's demands for higher
wages and in increased Gov
eminent spending.
IF past experience is any
guide, however," he said, "fur-
ther increases in wages are not
likely to result in gains in aver
age earnings as long as prices
rise. This is one manifesto
ton of the process Of imitation
in which rising costs and prices
mutually interact upon each
other :. with q spiral effect.
Higher Federal spending. he
said. has been partially Offset
by an increase in Federal tax
revenues, but the Governments
revenues have not kept pace
with its expenditures.

higher rates may hurt individ-

proportion to their total spend

Two Solutions Offered
Mr.. Martin told Senator Byrd
there are two ways to stop
imitation. One is the adoption
of appropriate monetary and
fiscal policies. The other. and
tragic. way is to let 1t run
wild until the Nations currency
becomes so worthless that
people refuse to accept 1t.
Mr.. Martin said the decline
in the value Of the dollar be-
tween 1910 and 1852 was pri-
marily the fault Of World War

after January z.
On the very day the legisla-
tors return, the House Ways
and Means Committee intends
to start hearings on tax revi-
sion." The Democratic con-
trolled tax-writing committee
thus can get a jump on what
ever President Eisenhower's
annual budget message might
say about possible tax cuts.
Showdown on Trade
Also early in the neA session
Congress will move toward a
showdown on whether to con-
tinue the Reciprocal Trade
Agreements Act. That legisla-
ton, enacted in New Deal days,
has encountered increasingly
stronger attacks by many Dem
ocrats as well as Republicans.
Its advocates have accused the
Eisenhower administration OF
being considerably less than
sympathetic toward the pro-
gram.
Some sort Of tax relief bill
is given a chance Of congress
sional passage next year. What
form it will take, how it will
affect individuals and corpora
tons, and whether the Demo-
Gratis or Republicans will get
the political credit in the 1853
congressional elections, are the
unanswered questions. Almost
1900 tax relief bills Of one
kind or another are pending
before the House committee.
Hopes for Third Surplus
The Eisenhower administra-
ton hopes to end the current
fiscal year next June 80 with
the third budget surplus in a
row. The tentative estimate
is for a $1.8 billion surplus, as
compared with 1.64 billion last
June 80. and 1852 billion in
June. 1856.
Those surpluses would not
have been achieved If Congress
had refused the administra
tons request to keep in effect
the 50 per cent corporation
income rate and various excise
tax levies which otherwise
would have dropped automati-
cally in April Of each year.
The White House has not said
whether 1t will ask for an
other extension next spring.
Lowering Of the present rates
would cost the Treasury 50
billion.
Congress next year will con-
slider a Ways and Means SUBJ
commuters recommendation
for numerous changes in the
excise tax structure. Their
adoption might lead to q reve-

nue. loss Of several hundred
million dallars.
A comprehensive bill to
amend the Social Security Act
also is sponsored by Repre-
sentative Forand. Democrat Of
Rhode Island, chairman Of the
subcommittee on the excise tax
revision. This would increase
by 10 per cent the present old
age. survivors and disability
insurance benefits. But 1t would
meet the added cost by various
provisions such as raising from
$4,000 to $4,000 the annual
earnings on which q social
security taxpayer would con-
tribute.
More Controversies Seen
Taxes. trade and tariffs, of
course. will not be the only
major considerations next year.
Some Of the most controversial
bills to be revived nevertheless
will have an important bearing
on budget balancing efforts and
tax-cutting drives.
In that category Is the bill,
beaten in the House this year,
for Federal aid for school con-
struction. II the President. as
expected. vetoes the recently
passed bills to boost Govern
ment employees pay. another at

mated increases would amount
to about $500 million.

the next session is pretty much
the same as the unfinished
business when Congress ad-
journed last Friday.
These issues include natural
gas regulation, Hawaii and
Alaska Statehood. an increase
