Have you ever heard the
remark, "She was lovely until
she opened her MOUTH" 1t
is sometimes true that we
receive O shock when a
woman Of apparent charm
speaks with a harsh or reedy
voice.
We all can profit by giving
our speaking voice some at
tention. For instance, pitch
and intensity are important.
For conversation, a voice in
the middle range, neither too
high nor too low, is easy on
the ears Of those who hear
us. If your voice is too high
and thin, try to make it
vibrate in your throat rather
than in your nose.
Your goal, Of course, is a
natural tone, not a baritone.
If you often are shushed for
speaking too loudly, make a
constant effort to lower the
volume.
Your speech should flow.
easily, not in breathy skips
and jumps. Practice taking
a deep breath and saying q
12-word sentence without in
haling again.
Your diction, or the clarity
Of your speech, is important.
It Is q strain when others
have trouble understanding
you Mumbling and slurring
are hard on others and also
detract from the attractive
ness Of your speech. Poor
diction usually is caused by
lazy lips and habit. If this

"Never have we been taken

the launching.
This was the third postpone

he sleeps right through Ground

than emerging from his cozy

The old belief is that if the

more weeks of winter weather

cast his shadow it means an

Debt Increase
Of $40 Billion
Disclosing PIeu,
Byrd Sets Major
Financial Probe
BY JACK BELL
Associated Press Staff Writer

Senator Harry F. Byrd, Dem
ocrat of Virginia, said today
President Kennedy is request
ing a $40 billion increase in
the national debt limit.
Senator Byrd, at the same
time, announced a sweeping in
quiry into the Nations finan-
cial condition.
The Virginian said in an in
terview he will ask the Senate
Finance Committee, which he
heads, to go into all aspects of
Federal spending and taxation
before it acts on a proposed
boost of the limit from $298
billion to a record-breaking
$308 billion.
Secretary of the Treasury
Dillon said in a memorandum
to Senator Byrd and Repre-
sentative Mills, Democrat of
Arkansas, chairman of the
House Ways and Means Com
mittee, that such an increase
is necessary if the Treasury is
to meet its future bills.
Wants elbow Room"
Mr.. Dillon asked for a boost
of So billion before March /
and So billion for the fiscal
year beginning next July l. He
said this would cover an esti-
mated peak debt of $304.5 bill
lion next December 16 and give
the Treasury about the So bill
lion elbow room it needs to op-
crate under the ceiling.
Senator Byrd said he is will
ing to go along with the tenn
porary increase to $500 billion
because "the President told me
personally that otherwise the
Government couldn't pay It's
bills"
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen today threw his sup
port behind Senator Byrd's
proposal for an investigation
Calling this "a good approach, u
he also agreed that the imme-
diate request for a 50 billion
increase must be granted to
avoid repudiating Government
obligations.

Deficit of $40 Billion
Noting that the country has
been on a deficit financing basis
in 26 of the last 81 years, Sena-
tor Byrd said he thinks this
years bulge of expenditures
may climb, as high as $40 bill
lion above receipts. The Treas
ury has forecast a $50 billion
deficit.
"The President estimates a
nominal surplus in the year
beginning next July l." Sen
ator Byrd said. II predict an
other deficit because I do not
believe revenues will rise by
the $l1 billion he is esti-
mating"
Senator Byrd noted that the
permanent debt ceiling fixed by
Congress is $285 billion. This
has been raised annually but
on a temporary basis.

holding a city-destroying force
which would later-"if neces-
sary"-be able to destroy enemy
cities.
This change In general-War
strategy is complementary to
shifts already announced in
limited-war planning. In both
cases, the administration is
seeking to broaden the war
time choices of the President.
Mr.. Mcnamara plans to as
sure the congressional commit
tees that the latest estimates of
Russian long range missile and
bomber strength shows that the
force requested in the new Ken
nedy defense budget will be
more than adequate in num-
'bers and types.
Forces Large Enough
Even if the Russians have
several times as many missiles
as are now estimated, the state
ment says, American forces will
be large enough to handle them.
The backbone of the Ameri-
can striking force will be bomb
ers in the next few years.
Later, much of the bomber role
will be taken over by ballistic
missiles.
Polaris submarine missiles,

a strategic reserve force for
all-out war. In wartime, they
would be held back in subma-

Staff Revision
For Army Set
Kennedy Submits
Plon to Congress

President Kennedy today ap-
proved a reorganization of the
Army Ordnance, Quartermaster
and other technical services and
submitted the plan to Congress,
The reorganization, which
also includes a streamlining of
staff operations, was proposed
by Secretary of the Army Stahr
and approved initially by Sec
retary of Defense Mcnamara.
The White House said the re-
organization would take effect
within 80 days if neither the
House nor Senate Armed Serv-
ices Committees objects. If
either unit disapproves it, the
plan would then go before Con-
gress as a whole. Congress
would then have 40 days in
which to reject the proposal.
The plan would go into ef-
feet automatically if Congress
does not act against it within
that period.
Two New Commands
The aim is to promote eff
cheney by grouping under two
new commands the operations
now being conducted by sepa-
rate technical services such as
the Transportation, Chemical,
Signal, Ordnance and Quarter
master Corps.
At the same time, the Army
General Staff will be relieved
of some Of its responsibilities
in these fields so it can con-
centrate on overall planning
and policy making. The staff's
present training and school
operations will be shifted to
the Continental Army Com
mand.
7 Months of Planning
The plan is the product of
about seven months of work.
It does not affect the COM
bat structure of the Army nor
any of the field command Or
ganizations.
The Army already has set
in motion the reshaping of its
fighting divisions for greater
mobility and striking power.
Some aspects of the plan may
run into opposition in Con-
gress, although an apparent
effort has been made to avoid
this possible difficulty by leav-
ing the Corps of Engineers
civil functions relatively un-
touched.

other things, handle river and

President Kennedy predicts
that an educational job" his

He made this prediction at a

balance" between farm produc-
ton and the Nations needs so
as to protect the farmers in
come.
Mr.. Kennedy also indorsed a
warning issued about a year
ago by former President Eisen-
hover about the influence of a
military-industrial alliance in
the defense spending program.
In response to a question, he

The President is organizing
his forces for what is expected
to be one of the major battles
in Congress this year over his
request for drastic new tariff
cutting authority to give him
what he considers essential
tools for effective bargaining

Market.
