Patterson Feels
Prosecuted Because
Of Press Criticism

New York, May 1 World
Heavyweight Champion Floyd Pat
terson feels prosecuted - by the
press particularly and by the pub
lie generally. More is at stake than
the title when he meets challenger
Sonny Liston this September; Pat
terson's image of himself in the
eyes of the world hinges on wheth-
er or not he can disprove the ac-
cusations made against his ability
and courage by some sportswrit-
ers.
In an interview in the current
issue of Sport magazine, Patterson
tells writer Dick Schaap, I'm not
fighting to prove anything g.
I've lost all desire to be accepted
as a great champion. know it'll
never happen . don't want to
be a great champion" According
to Schaap, however, this nonchal-
ance is a self-protective coverup.
Patterson does want acceptance,
but fears rejection; so he retreats
into a transparent sham. He wants
people on his side and wants to
be accepted as a great fighter and
good man. But Patterson feels
now that he has failed to prove
himself: I'm not admired" he
says. I'm not respected"
Much of Pattersons sensitive
ness results from ridicule of his
talents by boxing writer's. 1t has
been stated that champions of an
earlier era would have destroyed
Patterson; that he survives only
because he fights in a time of mis-
fits, and that he won't face legiti-
mate contenders.
Countering the. comparison of
himself with past champions, Pat
terson says, The only way that I
can feel someone beat me, the only
possible way is for them to do it.
Give me the right to fight it and
we'll see. If I'm beaten, if it's done
twice in succession, and If it's done
we'll enough, then I'll be the first
one to come right out and say this
man is a better fighter than am.
But that is the only way"
Titled The Crucial Challenge
for Floyd Patterson" the Sport in
terview makes clear that the Lis
ton match is a make-or-break one
for the champion. A victory over
Liston, popularity regarded as a
formidable contender for the title,
would vindicate Patterson and gain
him the respect and admiration he
pretends not to seek. A defeat
would bury his dreams.
Patterson calls Liston "a nice
guy" He also predicts that the
September meeting will be the
toughest fight of my career"

Miss. Legislators
RestudY Plan TO
Block Negro Vote

Jackson, Miss. (ANP) - Miss
issippi legislators are still having
their troubles trying to advance
the whites and hold back the Ne
groes in the state.
Last week a bill intended to re-
duce the number of Negroes elig-
ible to vote on bond issues was re-
turned to committee.
The measure, originally spon-
sored by IA senators, would re-
quire voters in bond issues to be
property owners. This they felt,
would surely eliminate or seriously
reduce the number of Negroes able
to vote.
However, it was pointed out that
the property ownership require
ment would also disfranchise a
number of whites and in fact
might make it almost impossible
to pass a bond issue since the law
requires a two thirds majority of
the electorate.
This caused the sponsors to re-
consider the measure. Now they
are proposing that the law be
changed to require only a simple
majority for passage of a bond
issue.
Meanwhile, the Senate ap-
proved two bills aimed at help
ing the city of jackson fight
Indignation. The measures then
went to the House.
One would allow the city to sell
Riverside Park, which was formed
from property bought 1S years
ago from the state. A private clut
or organization could purchase the
park to allow the city to avoic
court-ordered indignation Of the
facility.
The other bill would permit
jackson to buy advertising to
explain "any municipal activity"
Sen. H. v. Cooper Of Vicksburg
told newsmen 1t would help 'fm-
prove racial relations"
In the House, Rep. George Payn'
Cossar, authored a bill to Great
the new division which would as
sign the handling Of all fedora
court suits and civil rights case
in which the state or its subdiv
isions are involved.
Three fulltime attorneys genera
now are assigned to such cases
and a special assistant has beef
employed by the attorney genera
to assist them.
Under the new measure, tn
eight new attorneys wound be EN-
ployed in addition to the presen
force. The constitutional right
division" would be permitted to &C
quire office space outside the stat
capitol.

Strengthening Our
Monpower Base

The labor force of the United
States is its most valuable pro-
ductive resource. Measures
which enhance the skills and
adaptability of the working
population contribute to the
overall productivity of the
economy. Several legislative
proposals to serve these ends
have already been put before
Congress.
Cd. I urge speedy passage of
the proposed manpower de-
velopment and training act .
(2). For the same reasons, !
urge enactment of the Youth
Employment Opportunities Act.
This bill provides three types
of pilot programs to give young
people employment opportuni-
ties which would enable them to
acquire much-needed Skills =.
I have already made recon-
mendations for improvement
of the Federal-State unemploy-
ment compensation system.

for more funds to increase the
effectiveness of the United
States Employment Service :.

vide adequate penalties for en-

trial demand is expanding
steadily. 1t is uneconomic for
the United States Government
to lock up large quantities Of
useful silver in the sterile form
of currency reserves. Neither is
any constructive purpose served
by requiring that the treasury
maintain a floor under the
price of silver. Silver should
eventually be denonetized, ex-
cept for its use in coins.
Cd AS a first step in freeing
silver from Government control,
the secretary of the treasury
at my direction suspended sales
of silver on November 30. =.
(2) The next step should be
the withdrawal of the treasury's
price floor under domeStically
produced silver. Accordingly.
recommend repeal of the acts
relating to silver of June 10,
1884, July 6, 1889, and July 81,
1916; this step will free the
treasury from any future oblig-
alton to support the price of
silver.
80 I also recommend the re-
peal of the special so per cent
tax on transfers of interest in
silver. ...
"a Finally, I recommend that
the Federal Reserve System be
authorized to issue Federal re-
serve notes in denominations of
81; this will make possible the
gradual withdrawal from cir
culation of 81 and So silver cer-
tificates, and the use of the
silver thus released for coinage

Measures for
A Stronger Economy

The final section of my re-
port is a summary of my recon-
mendationS for legislative ac-
tion Cd to strengthen our de-
fenseS against recession, 90 to
strengthen our financial sys-
tenn, 90 to strengthen our
manpower base, and "a to
strengthen our tax system.
A program for sustained
prosperity
Recurrent recessions have
thrown the postwar American
economy off stride at a time
when the economies of other
major industrial countries have
moved steadily ahead. To i'm
prove our future performance
I urge the Congress to join with
me in erecting a defense in
depth against future recessions
The basic elements of this de-
fenSe are Cd presidential
standby authority for prompt
temporary income tax reduc-
tions, ca presidential standby
authority for capital improve
ments expenditures, and 90 6
permanent strengthening Of
the unemployment compensa-
ton system
Standby tax reduction
authority. First, I recommend
the enactment of standby
authority under which the
President, subject to veto by
the Congress, could make
prompt temporary reductions
in the rates of the individual
income tax to combat reces-
sions, as follows:
Cd Before proposing a tenn.

months after the authority was
invoked.
Unemployment compensation.
Third, I again urge the Congress
to strengthen permanently our
Federal-State system Of unem-
ployment insurance. My spe-
cific recommendations include:
(D Extension Of the benefit
period by as much as 13 weeks
for workers with at least three
years experience in covered en-
ployment;
(2) Similar extension Of the
benefit period when unemploy-
ment is widespread for workers
with less than three years of
experience in covered employ
ment. This provision could be
put into effect by presidential
proclamation when insured un-
employment reaches 5 percent,
and the number of benefit ex-
haustions over a three-month
period reaches l percent of
covered employment;
90 Incentives for the States
to provide increaSd benefits, so
that the great majority of
covered workers will be eligible
for weekly benefits equal to at
least half of their average
weekly wage;
"a Extension of coverage to
more than three million addi-
tional workers;
60 Improved financing of
the program by an increase in
the wage base for the payroll
tax from $4,000 to 81 1900;
60 Reinsurance grants to
States experiencing high un-
employment insurance costs;
CD Provisions which permit
claimants to attend approved
training or retraining courses
without adverse effect on
eligibility for benefits.
Wider coverage, extended
benefit periods, and increased
benefit amounts will help
society discharge its obligation
to individual un ploye d
workers. And by maintaining
more adequately their incomes
and purchasing power, these
measures will also buttress the
economy's built-in defenSeS
against recession -.
In combination, these three
measures will enable Federal
fiscal policy to respond firmly
flexibly, and swiftly to oncom-
ing receSSionS

vision or renewal by the same
process or extension by a joint
resolution of the Congress.
go If the Congress were not
in session, a presidentially pro-
posed tax adjustment would
automatically take effect but
would terminate 80 days after
the Congress reconvened. Ex-
tension would require a new
proposal by the President, which
would be subject to congression-
al veto.
A temporary reduction Of in
dividual income tax rates across
the board can be a powerful
safeguard against recession. 1t
would reduce the annual rate
of tax collections by 81 billion
per percentage point, or a maxi
mum of $40 billion-$1 billion
per point, or a $5-billion maxi
mum, for six months-at pres
ent levels of income. These
figures should be measured
against the costs they are de-
signed to foreStall:
The tens Of billions of po-
tential output that run to waste
in recession;
The pain and Illustration
of the millions whom recessions
throw out of work;
The budget deficits of $12.4
billion in fiscal 1859 or $40 bill
lion this year.
The proposed partial tax
suspension would launch a
prompt counterattack on the
cumulative forces of recess
sion. -.
I am not asking the
Congress to delegate its power
to levy taxes, but to authorize
a temporary and emergency
suspension of taxes by the
President - subject to the
checkrein of congressional veto
in situations where times is
of the essence.
Standby capital improve
mentS authority. Second, rec
ommend that the Congress pro-
vide standby authority to the
President to accelerate and
initiate up to So billion of ap-
propriately timed capital i'm
provements when unemploy-
ment is rising, as follows:
Cd The President would be
authorized to initiate the pro-
gram within. two months after
the seasonally adjusted un-
employment rate

porary tax reduction, the Presi-
dent must make q finding that
such action is required to meet
the objectives of the employ
ment act.
(2) Upon such finding, the
President would submit to Con-
gress a proposed temporary uni
form reduction in all individual
income tax rates. The proposed
temporary rates may not be
more than 5 percentage points
lower than the rates perma-
nently established by the
Congress.
90 This change would take
effect 80 days after submission,
unless rejected by a joint reso-
luton of the Congress.
a. It would remain in effect
for 6 months, subject to re-
