"In the course of the past
year, no evidence has been
forthcoming of any basic
change in the Hungarian situa-
ton which would warrant re-
taxation by the United Nations
of its continued attention to
the problem"
Sir Leslie also reported that
Soviet military forces have con-
tinued to remain in Hungary
contrary to the requests of the
General Assembly for their
withdrawal"
He added:
IF Soviet forces are with
drawn from Hungary-and it
may be recalled that such ap-
peared to be the intention of
the government of the USSR in
October 1956-this act would
undoubtedly be regarded by all

HOWS THAT, Mr.. BRUCKER?
PuyoIu Probe
Gives Singer
Police Escort

NEW YORK, Nov. q (AP).-
A singer, repeatedly fearing re-
prisalS for his charges that disc
jockeys exacted payoffs from
him, today was given a police
escort from his Bronx home.
A detective was sent to escort
Don Anthony, 81, to the dis
trict attorneys Office for ques-
tioning about reported moves
to intimidate him.
Mr.. Anthony has claimed he
was ''bled of $4,000 by disc
jockeys in New York, Chicago,
Philadelphia, Washington and
Baltimore to get them to air
his song, Careless" recorded
by a company he formed him
self.
He was quoted by the New
York Post as saying he feared
muscle men" would beat him
up in retaliation, and that two
men who acted like they were
hoped up" have been follow
ing him late at night.
Earlier, he said he got anony-
nous phone calls from someone
saying: "You stool pigeon,
you'll get taken care Of"
A spokesman for District At
torney Frank S. Hogan said
the escort was sent for Mr..
Anthony on the basis of reports
he wanted police protection, and
that the matter would be in
vestigated.
Other radio-music figures
were expected to be questioned
by Mr.. Hogan's Office today in
his inquiry into payola-pay-
mentS for getting records
plugged-a subject also under
scrutiny by congressional in
vestigators.

Nehru Drops Threat
To Resign His Post
Health Service Again
Links Smoking, Cancer
By the Associated Press

The Public Health Service has
issued this strong new warning
on tobacco: The weight of evi-
dence duplicates smoking as
the main cause of the rising
rate of lung cancer.
The statement was issued
yesterday by Surgeon General
Leroy E. Burney in the form
Of an article in the journal Of
the American Medical Associa-
ton. 1t was the Governments
strongest statement to date
linking smoking and cancer,
and DR.. Burney said it was
based partly on new evidence.
His warning Immediately was
attacked by tobacco interests as
a warmed-over rehash of old
statistics.
DR.. c. C. Little, scientific di-
rector Of the Tobacco Industry
Research Committee, said in
New York the, points in DR..
Burney's article were first ad-
vanced some years ago in sta
tistical studies that admittedly
are not supported by expert
mental evidence"

And at Appomattox, Va,
Representative Abbitt, Demo-
crat of Virginia, who repre-
sents a major tobacco-growing
district, said "it is shocking
that a supposedly responsible
Government official would cas-
tigate the entire tobacco in
dustry on such flimsy statistical
evidence"
DR.. Burney's article took
note of frequent criticisms of
the evidence linking smoking
and lung cancer. He cited DR..
Little's previous criticisms
specifically.
But DR.. Burney noted that
by law the Public Health
Service must tell the medical
profession and the public about
anything affecting public
health. After reviewing the
presently available evidence in
detail, he said "the Public

U. 5. Chamber
Asks Income
TaxCut Now
Federal Sales Levy
Across Bourd
Also Advocated
By the Associated Pres

The United States Chamber
of Commerce today urged an
immediate income tax cut and
a temporary across-the-board
sales tax.
A statement, reporting ac-
tions this week by the cham
ber's board of directors, said
such cuts are vitally needed to
stabilize the dollar and promote
economic growth.
1t said they could be ex-
lpected to stir up so much new
business activity that they
would increase the Govern
ment'S revenue soon, and
added:
"The immediate loss of rev.
enue would be about $3.5 bill
lion a year and this could be
offset by a temporary sales tax
applied across the board at q
low uniform rate"
The chamber directors threw
their support behind the Baker,
Herlong bill as the vehicle for
the proposed tax cuts.
Now Before Committee
The bill, introduced by Rep
resentative Herlong, Democrat
of Florida, and Baker, Repub-
lican of Tennessee, is before the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee which is now making a
general study Of the income tax
program.
1t would make graduated re-
ductions over a five-year period
in the individual levies. The
top rate would drop by stages
from 81 per cent to Al per cent.
The bottom rate would move
down from 20 per cent to Is
per cent. Corporate rates would
go down by per cent annually,
bringing the top rate down to
AZ per cent.
The bill also deals with de-
probation allowances, capital
gains, estate and gift tax re-
ductionS.
The chamber said in its news
letter Washington Report that
the tax categories affected by
the Baker-Herlong bill are "the
ones most harmful to the de-
velopment and use of capital"
Pushing its contention that
the changes would strike at
the roots of imitation, the
Chamber said:
Under present tax rate re-
strictions, demands upon eco
nomic productivity are grow
ing faster than the ability of
business capital to form and
keep up with them"
Tax History Cited
1t contended that tax his
tory since 1920 shows that
within a year or two after most
tax reductions have gone into
effect, revenues from newly
stimulated business have ex-
ceeded those under the old
rates.
In a related development the
Ways and Means Committee
was asked to consider tax in
centiveS for authors, writer's
and other creative persons.
Paul Ziffren, Democratic ma
tional committeeman from
California, wrote Chairman
Mills Democrat of Arkansas)
complaining that such persons
are subject to unreasonable
and unrealiStic discrimination"
under present laws.
Mr.. Ziffren, a tax attorney
who often represents Holly
wood stars, said investors fare
much better than those in the
creative field. He noted that
investors may limit their tax
to Is per cent in many in
stances but authors and writer's
must pay full income levies.
