Arlington Asks
Standby Right
For Sales Tax

The Arlington County Board
has decided to seek authority
from the General Assembly to
levy a county sales tax in case
the Assembly should adopt a
State sales tax.
Meeting yesterday, board
members said they do not want
a sales tax, but want the coun-
ty to be in a "flexible'' position
if the Assembly approves the
perennial sales tax proposal.
The board members expressed
the fear that Arlington might
not receive a fair return of
revenue received from the State
sales tax.
The board moved to send q
county representative to a hear
ing at Warrenton Wednesday
Of the Virginia Tax Advisory
Commission.
In other actions yesterday,
the board requested police SUI
pervision whenever a group
of pickets finds itself picketed.
This was in answer to a COM

AF Bars Gift
Cigarettes
For Patients
ry the Associated Press

The Air Force has placed a
ban on gifts of cigarettes by
tobacco firms to men in the
services base hospitals, a
spokesman said yesterday.
The order was issued on Sep
tember II because of what the
Air Force called "ever-increas-
ing evidence" linking cigarette
smoking with lung cancer and
other diseases. The order said
such evidence can no longer
be ignored"
The Air Force spokesman
said tobacco companies had
been informed of the order.
Many scientists have declared
that research indicates that
cigarette smoking can cause
lung cancer, especially If many
cigarettes are consumed over
a long period. However. manu-
facturers of cigarettes dispute
this, cortending that research
so far is inconclusive and fails
to give proper weight to other
possible causes such as fumes
from automobile engines.

shaking. party pamphlet SPELL
ing out why he thinks Britain
must join the six-nation Euro
pean Economic Community. 1t
already includes France, West
Germany, Italy, The Neither
lands, Belgium and Luxem-
bourg.
Recalling that he had ex-
planned these reasons in the
recent conference of Common
wealth Prime Ministers, Mr..
Macmillan went on record:
IT firmly reject the view that
Britain is faced with a choice
between the Commonwealth
and Europe the problem
before us is how to reconcile
these two structures, not to
divide them"
Fears for the future of the
Commonwealth and for British
sovereignty have been the two
most potent weapons of anti
marketeers here.
Mr.. Macmillan gave political
and economic reasons for join
ing, in his 5,O00-word argu-
ment.
Essentially these boiled down
to his belief that Britain would
suffer loss of political influence
and of economic opportunity If
it stayed aloof.
Pointing 20 the super powers,
the United States and the So
Wet Union. he declared, "a di-
vided Europe would stand no
chance of competing with
these great concentrations OF
power"
But he added, the European
community already number
ing ITO million and which
would have at least 220 million
with Britain in-would have,
"the ability to stand on an
equal footing with the great
power groupings of the world. 3"
BY joining, he went on, Brit
ain would not only gain new
stature in Europe, but also in
crease its standing and influ-
ence in the councils Of the
world. Britain would be
the chief spokesman Of the
Commonwealth in Europe and
the interpreter of Europe to
the Commonwealth"
Political quarters said 1t was
virtually unprecedented for a
Prime Minister to write such a
pamphlet while still in office.

Those who believe Demo-

by now there are two United

The spoxesmen of opposing
parties couldn't be talking

could they?
President Kennedy and Vice

along the campaign trail as
surfing the voters that America
is moving again at home and
tightening the screws on COM

Citizens who cared to lister
heard all Of this before In thl

The only difference Is that thu
parties have switched theil

goose is now the gander's.
What is involved is a test
OF the ability of Mr., Kennedy
and Mr.. johnson to operate
successfully on the political
defensive.
Defense Test
They proved their knack two
years ago of conducting a sue
cessful attack on the record of
the administration of former
President Eisenhower. But they
are learning that defending a
record of their own is quite a
different dish.
Republicans are not making
it easy for them. Practically
every statement Mr.. Kennedy
made in the 1860 campaign
has been documented for the
opportunity to toss it back at
the President.
Senator Dirksen and Mr.
Halleck employed this strate-
gy in their ''Ev and Charlie
show last week.
Senator Dirksen quoted Ken
nedy statements Of two years
ago citing Cuba as showing
that "our security and oul
leadership are both slipping
