Austria. Italy, the Neither

Belgium all leading the
United States in growth rate.
Great Britain lagS a little
behind the United States.
His consciousness Of these
ratings is said to have per-
suaded the President to offer
his present tax bill which
combines expansion incen-
tiveS to business with the
withholding tax on dividends
and interest to make up the
revenue. But that measure
is in danger because of the
Supercharged attacks on the
withholding provision.
The administration is doing
all it can to rescue the bill.
1t is convinced that the emo
tional attack on withholding
only proves that evasion of
taxes on dividends and inter-
est is far more widespread
than it had thought.

ket as potentially the most

to us, and what I'm concerned
about is that we might get
locked out Of that market"
Mr.. Eisenhower viewed the
Common Market as "a chal-
lenge to our ability to export,
to have a prosperous economy
both at home and a profitable
trade abroad. thus making the
economy Of the free world
stronger, and making it impos-
sible for the Communist ambi-
ton to weaken us economic
ally and destroy us piecemeal."
The program centered about
MI. Kennedy'S pending request
to Congress for power to elm
mate tariffs on a wide range
OF commodities.
Mr.. Kennedy called the bill
the most important piece of
legislation before the country
this year."
In foreseeing some disrup-
tion in the domestic economy
in competition with the Com
mon Market, Mr.. Eisenhower
said:
I'VE want long-term wisdom

is going to be a Hardship.

embodiment in a prepared
address. But an impromptu
speech often reveals the in
nermoSt thoughts Of the
speaker. In this case, it is
evident that the President is
concerned about the bal
ance of power" against him
in Congress and seeks a free
hand. Few Presidents have
gone as far without law to
regulate the economy and
social life of the Nation by
executive orders as has Mr..
Kennedy. He realizes that
the only check could come
from Congress. He has today
virtually a two-thirds major
ity of his party in both
houses of Congress. But this,
in his opinion, isn't enough.
1t is a shaky majority be-
cause the non-radicals and
non-SocialiStS do frequently
break away from party lines.
The mention Of war and
peace" and leader Of the
free world" in the context Of
political speech-making is
somewhat puzzling. For Re-
publicanS and Democrats in
Congress, whether or not
they are conservatives, have
generally supported the Pres
ident on international poll
cies for many years, irrespec-
tive of the party affiliation
of the man in the White
House.
The real issues are on the
domestic side. Mr.. Kennedy
wants enough non-conserva-
tives elected on the Demo-
cratic ticket for Congress in
the North to cancel out the
power and influence of the
conservative Democrats of
the South and perhaps even
to take away their committee
chairmanShips if they fail to
join the rubber stamp"
contingent and go along with
presidential edicts. Many Re-
publican voters in the North
doubtless will be thinking of
participating in the Demo-
cratic primaries to join with
other conservatives to defeat
radical and socialistic candi-
dates aspiring for a Demo-
cratic Party nomination. Mr..
Kennedy seems to have flung
a new challenge into the
congressional elections of
1862.

Kennedy Steel
Policy Lashed

NEW YORK, May IS tAP).-
Senator Goldwater, Republican
of Arizona, said last night that
President Kennedy's use of
''the coercive power of Gov
Iernment" against a steel price
increase may prove a blessing
in disguise.
He said it had helped to alert
the public ito the dangers of
greater and greater powers in
the hands of a centralized gov
ernment."
Never before, said Senator
Goldwater in a speech att the
annual dinner of the American
Iron and Steel Institute, had
the American people been
shown "in such dramatic FASH
ion the coercive power of an
irate Government"
Nov they have seen it." he
said. They've seen it in its
most frightening, offensive
form.
They've seen presidential
anger go beyond the stage of
rhetoric and become translated
into action with the use of
grand juries. the FBI, the re-
routing of Government con-
tracts, and legislative investi-
cations"
Senator Goldwater said it
made no difference whether the
$6-a-ton price boost announced
by major steel companies and
later rescinded was justified or
unjuStified; he said the basic
thing involved was freedom.
The conservative Republican
Senator accused the Kennedy
administration of "the biggest
power grab ever attempted by
the executive branch OF the
Government" and said the steel
price disputes should serve as
a warning against increased
concentration Of power.

President Kennedy has
launched the 1862 congress
sional campaign with a
declaration of war on the
conservatives in his own
party. He asked the voters in
Northern States particularly
to elect Democrats in the
place Of any Republicans,
whether or not they happen
to be conservatives.
The significance of this
move has not yet been sensed
even in the political arena.
But it means that the coali-
tion Of Republicans and
Democrats, which for the
last Is years has saved
America from radicalism and
socialism, is to be broken
down if the President has his
way.
Two speeches within the
last six days by Mr.. Kennedy
emphasize his attitude to-
ward the existing coalition.
He said, for instance, to the
1852 campaign conference
for Democratic Women at a
meeting on the White House
lawn a few days ago:
Nearly every issue which
comes before the House and
Senate today is settled by
one vote. one way or the
other. Congressman Boggs,
on the trade bill-nearly
every important vote on the
trade bill in the Ways and
Means Committee was settled
in our favor by one vote. We
lost the agricultural bill in
the Senate Agricultural Com
mittee on which Senator
Humphrey Sits-by one vote.
We passed it in the House of
Representatives. out of the
Agricultural Committee, by
one vote"
Just before the above
speech, Mr.. Kennedy told a
Democratic Party rally in
Madison Square Garden that
the coalition-or balance of
power" as he calls it-must
be defeated. He said:

lost so many seatS-there has
been a balance of power in
the House and Senate which
has made it very difficult to
pass any new. legislation
which involves important
interests.
What we are now talking
about is whether the United
States, now and after the
1862 election, shall have such
"a balance of power in the
Congress and in the Execu-
live that nothing will be
done. That's the simple and
clear issue. And those who
think that nothing should be
done. should regard this as
an unimportant election.
But as long as we have so
many issues facing us in so
many parts of the world, and
our own country-So much
unfinished business involving
all kinds of issues which go
to the well-being of our peo-
pleas long as we have a
necessity for action as the
leader of the free world, I
believe we should have the
opportunity and not have the
kind of balance in the Con-
greSS which will mean two
many more years of inertia
and inaction. That's why this
is an important election.
Five-10-seats one way or an
other can vitally affect the
balance of power in the Con-
gresS and vitality affect our
future"
The President denies that
he himself is seeking any
more power. He says that
this idea is "the oldest old
political argument" and that
people should know and
realize that the power given
to the President of the United
States, under the Constitu-
ton, particularly that of war
and peace, is as great a pow
er and in many senses more
than man could possibly
desire"
