TaxCutCaIIed
Unlikely With
Outlook Better
By HOBART ROWEN.
North American NeWspaper Alliance


North American Newspaper Alliance
It's almost time for that
second look" at the economy
the President promised for
April. And although most of
the basic business indicators
are still unfavorable, chances
are heavily against a tax cut
proposal.
In retrospect, Mr.. Kennedy
and his advisers really cast
their ballots against a tax cut
when they put off a decision
late in January. A tax cut
would take time to get through
Congress. Therefore, the de-
ciSion to wait until April was,
in effect, a gamble that the
economy wouldn't need such
strong medicine.
Now, cabinet officers are
freely predicting a spring up
turn. Unemployment is at the
highest level in 20 years, but
if consumers open their wal
lets to buy cars and other
goods, they say, the jobless to-
tai will quickly recede.
No Magic Turn-AbOut Seen
But not everyone in WASH
ington believes that the econ
omy is about to make q sort
Of magical turn-about Of its
own from recession to real
prosperity.
Between the lines Of con-
gressional testimony by Mr..
Kennedy's own chief economic
aide Is q strong hint that ad-
ditional remedies are needed.
Walter w. Heller, chairman
OF the Presidents Council Of
Economic Advisors warned
Congress we could have "re-
covery" from recession in the
traditional sense-and still have
SIS to 2 per cent Of the labor
force out of work.
Mr.. Heller presented figures
which implied that the bottom
Of recession would be hit by
mid-year. and that the Nations
total output Of goods and serv-
ices would rise to q rate Of
about $523 billion in the final
quarter Of 1861.
This would be an all-time
high. to be sure. But it would be
about $50 billion less than the
United States could produce If
the labor force and the Nations
factories were working full
time.
Trapped by Definitions
Thus. we seem to be trapped
by old definitions Of recession"
and recovery" The statistical
exercise Of topping an old rec
ord doesn't mean anything.
Obviously, with q fast-growing
population which adds q
potential l million new entrants
to the labor force every year,
II the Nation can only match
or barely beat former produc-
ton and consumption records,
we're in economic distress.
By the same token, If the
administration takes Just these
statistics as its guide to the
need for further stimulative
action. 1t may be following too
timorous a course.
So far. Mr.. Kennedy has Jus
tilted the modest scope of his
anti-recession program as en-
comprising all that is politically
feasible and economically pru-
dent at the moment.
Perhaps, in the end, it will
be shown that he is right. But
this might have been q good
time for boldness. As Mr.. Heller
said, because Of unemployment
and excess capacity, there is
little danger Of q re-inflation.
The expansionary effects of
government programs will
be welcome even If they occur
well after the recession has
been reversed" he added.
After having so well analyzed
the abortive nature Of recovery
from the 1858 recession, Mr..
Kennedy may achieve only e.
sluggish and halfway recovery
from this one.

here is stimulating people to do
the impossible.
A full-time policeman has re-
duced his sleeping hours to four

to earn college degrees.

the usual eight, thereby increas-
ing his wakeful time from 16 to

too often revealed; Goldwater
seeks to exploit it. Taft was a
careful man, while Goldwater at
tempts craftiness. Bob Taft's con-
servatism centered around two
cardinal points in his political
credo: opposition to spendthrift
use of public funds and opposition
to Capitalization of power in the
White House. Goldwater's political
philosophy can be expressed by him
in five words: Il want to be Presi-
dent"
Senator Goldwater ought to be
careful about being compared too
often with the distinguished Ohio
an who lost bitter fight to Cen
eral Eisenhower for the Republican
nomination and the Presidency in
1852. For the more often he is so
compared, the greater the chance
that voters will remember what
they liked about Taft, and what
they consequently dislike about
Goldwater.
Tough Cookie
Loren Miller-one of this coun-
try's outstanding political analy-
sists-was a member of a delega-
ton that went in to see Taft on
some civil rights issue a dozen
years ago. Afterward, he described
Taft as being "a tough cookie
who'll give you a blunt answer
that doesn't make you as angry
as it might, because you know
he means it."
On civil rights Taft was an um-
satisfactory as Franklin D. Roose-
welt. Yet, on housing he was one
of the Senate's most advanced
champions of progressive pro-
grams - including the racial an
giles. You couldn't call Taft a
liberal; you couldn't call him a
reactionary. You could call him
what he once called himself: "a
political realist trained to look
under the plate when political
goodies are passed around, because
there's always bill to the public
hidden there and the bill is al
ways too high" Nothing that
Goldwater has yet said has any
similar ring of sincerity not
even his letter in praise of New
burgh.
