Would Oppose Cut

@. If, by the time the tax
bill gets to you in June, they
haven't reduced spending any.
would you support o tax cut?
A. No, I would not. But I
would welcome o tax cut If
expenditures were reduced suf-
ficiently.
@. What Importance do you
attach to tax reform?
A. Well. the reforms that
have been proposed are very
complicated. There are nearly
q score of them, and most of
them are controversial. In fact,
many of them are designed to
raise taxes.
There are some that !
strongly oppose. For example.
I oppose the so-called reform
reducing the amount Of al
lowable deductions for contri-
button to charity and so forth.
This proposal would increase
taxes by some $2.5 billion.
Such a so-called reform
would affect many churches,
colleges and other extremely
worthwhile institutions. TIL c
gross tax cut proposed Is $l3
billion. But the increases In
the reforms would take back
So billion of the total tax cut.
This one proposal accounts for
more than two-thirds Of the
tax cut offset,

Deficit Could Peril

q. Would another big deficit
affect our gold reserve?
A. I feel certain that 1t would.
We are running balance Of pay
ments deficits in our inter-
national transactions amount
ing to billions Of dollars a
year. When our debts abroad
are greater than our payments
from overseas, foreigners may
take payment In either dollars
or gold.

do not think any nation In the
free world would want to de-
stroy the value of the dollar
abroad. but the fact Is we are
still losing our gold.
@. Senator, medical care for
the aged bill also would come
before your committee. Does it
look as If it will have to put
that off until next year?
A. That is what I hope will
be done. I am very much OPP
posed to the medicare bill as
1t has been proposed. 1t would
make it necessary to raise So
cial security taxes. in time, to
10 per cent. That would be O
heavy tax and 1t might 60 even
higher. In addition, the medi-
care proposal. as it has been
promoted. could lead to social
1zed medicine.
@. Senator, is there any hope
of repaying the $305 billion
debt?
A. Obviously, It would take a
long time. But we could start
simply by living within our
income.
@. II the debt is not reduced,
the prospect is to continue pay
ing $40 billion q year hence
forth in interest, or more,
without being able to knock
down the principal.
A. I certainly wish we would
start reducing the principal,
but If we don't we are obi
gated to continue paying the
interest. Actually, we are COM
pounding the interest under
present budgets when we bor-
row money to pay interest.

And If we have another big
deficit next year and we are
bound to have 1t, II this tax
bill goes through there win be
still another big deficit In the
year after that. We could start
another round Of initiation.
Conservative Bosis
@. Senator. you are known
as an impartial critic Of Demo-
cratic and Republican Presi-
dents.
A. That1s right.
@. You have been here 30
years and been a member Of
the Democratic Party all your
life. If you had to do 1t all
over again, would you be q
Republican?
A. No.
Q. Why do you say that?
A. I am Virginia Democrat.
Virginia Democrats desire to
follow such leaders as Thomas
Jefferson. We believe conserva-
tism is the best basis for sound
progress.
@. Are you aware Of any
arm twisting" on Congress by
the Kennedy administration to
get its programs through
A. The President Is a man of
fine personality. 1t Is proper
for Presidents to promote their
programs and put forth their
best effort for their adoption.
My position on such proposals
usually is made known in due
course, and from there on it
is simply a matter of voting my
convictions.

two-thirds Of our "free" gold
since 1919. Gold backs our
money, and we require about
$l2 billion for that purpose.
Ten years ago we had $24 bill
lion In gold. Now we have less
than SIS billion. That leaves
us less than 81 billion In the
free" gold.
We are continuing to lose
gold steadily. We lost more
than 5000 million hast calendar
year. The solution lies in two
directions: we must reduce
sharply or eliminate our deficit
in foreign transactions, which
has averaged So billion q year
over the past five years, and
we must restore confidence in
the Federal fiscal position at
home.
@. What Is the best way to
reduce the imbalance Of pay
ments, Senator?
A. We must increase our
profitable exports, and we must
completely re-evaluate our for
eign assistance programs. One
of our heaviest requirements
for foreign expenditure Of dol
lars is in the maintenance of
some 10000 troops abroad
in some 70 areas around the
world. 1t has been estimated
that it costs $4,000 a year to
maintain each of them in over
seas status.
Foreign economic aid Is an
other pipeline for expenditures
abroad. Tourist expenditures is
another, and so on, including
our commercial imports.

ON THE REcORD-senuto Harry F. Byrd a.rs. s-sas1s..e
Kennedy Plan for Tax Cut Called DANGEROUS

FOLLOWING Is the transcript
OF an ON THE RECORD in
teTUieiD Nth Senator Harry
Flood Byrd, Democrat OF Viz
Oinid, Chairman OF the Sem
ate Finance Committee:
@. Senator, the most i'm
portant thing you are con-
cerned with is the tax bill.
What is going to happen to 1t?
A. That is a difficult ques-
ton to answer, because revenue
legislation must originate in
the House of Representatives.
The tax bill is still in the
House and 1t has not been
determined yet what either the
Ways and Means Committee or
the House will do.
All I can say at this time
is: as proposed by the adj
ministration, it will be a very
controversial bill, ana on that
basis the Senate Finance Com
mittee hearings are likely to
be considerable.
It must be understood that
the administration recommen-
dations propose q new policy
with respect to taxation. They
would lower taxes with bor-
rowed money on the conten-
ton that it would bring
prosperity.
@. You do not agree with
that?
A. I do not. In the first
place, the proposals assume
that the tax reductions going
to some 70 million individuals
would be used by them directly
for the purchase Of goods and
services; not deposited in banks
or otherwise used for some
thing else. Furthermore, they
assume that the $1,000 cor
porations would be stimulated
to expand their production,
which does not necessarily fol-
loxu

Presidents Program
Wrong Approach

q. Senator, Is it your feeling
that the Presidents tax pro-
gram Is the wrong approach?
A. ! think 1t is the wrong
approach. 1t is very dangerous
for the President to ask the
country to adopt a policy
which may set a precedent for
the future-of lowering taxes
and adding it to the public
debt every time some economist
thinks he sees a recession on
the horizon.
think the deficit this year,
ending June 80, even before
the proposed tax cut would be
effective, will be higher than
the President estimates. It
might exceed SO billion.
The President, incidentally,
has changed his policy since
January q year ago when he
brought In his budget for the
current year. He said then that
he was proud to be proposing
a balanced budget with q $500
million surplus. That surplus
has been turned into o deficit
which the administration, tt
self, is now estimating at SIS
billion.
Now he proposes q deficit next
year. beginning July !, Of nearly
So billion with the tax cut.
And ! think. with the tax cut
and the spending he has pro-
posed, the deficit could be SIS
billion to $1S billion.
@. Senator, the President
keeps saying that the deficit
is due to national defense
spending and space spending
rather than to excessive do
nestle spending.
A. The President has access
to revenue estimates. If he
thinks his proposed level of
spending for defense and space
is vital, spending for other pro-
grams should be reduced in the

Free World Crisis
Over Gold Possible

@. Senator, what will hap
pen II our free" gold reserve
Is exhausted2
A. It would be extremely
serious. 1t could precipitate q
crisis throughout the free
world. The dollar has been held
up in foreign exchange by the
fact that it is backed by gold
valued at $35 an ounce, and
when deficit transactions &C.
cur and settlements are made,
foreign central banks can ask
for gold in lieu of dollars. And
in q Federal deficit condition
at home, we do not dare with
draw the gold backing from
the dollar. or increase the $35
statutory value at which the
gold is fixed.
@. What would 1t do, drive
the value of the dollar lower?
A. 1t probably would neces-
state revaluation Of the dollar.
And this would be serious.
There has been some specula-
ton and talk about withdraw
ing the gold base from the
dollar. But If we did that, it
would be taken as q sign Of
weakness; and we owe $18 bill
lion to $40 billion abroad, while
we have less than SIC billion
in gold.
@. Would you favor brineing
back the troops from Europe
as a drastic way Of correcting
this situation?
A. I think we should do our
proper share. and that other
nations In the free world should
bear their share also.
@. If some Of our large allies
decided to get a little tough
and demand the money they
had coming In gold, would we
be In trouble?
A. I think we would. But

Beware COP. 7 octics,
johnson Tells His Porty

RALEIGH, N. c., Mar. 80
(AP) Vice President Lyndon
b. johnson urged Southern
Democrats tonight not to be
"softheaded" enough to let Re-
Ipublicans split them apart In
the 1864 election.
Mr.. johnson did not mem
ton the civil rights issue in q
speech prepared for a party
dinner. Nor did he take any
notice of the effort of Missis-
sippi Gov. Ross Barnett to lead
q party revolt aimed at deny
ing Southern electoral votes to
President Kennedy next year.
Instead, the Vice President
said he expects the q. o. p.
to try to pit Democrats against
each other and to charge that
one wing Of his party Is trying
to drive another out Of the
fold.
"At least some Of its leaders
hope that we Democrats will
be sufficiently soft-headed to
succumb TO a strategy as old
as the Roman Empire-divide
and conquer" he said.
Some Republicans have been
counseling q major drive in the

for reelection II they can link
strength there with that In the

II suspect that as election

hurled in the hope that 1t will
stick" Mr.. johnson said. IF
we Democrats make the mis-
take Of paying attention TO the
partisan charges Of the opposi-
ton, we will snatch defeat out
Of the Jaws Of victory.
Let those who would make
special appeals to the South
understand one thing. nobody
lives in these States and In this
historic region but Americans.
"As we would not tolerate
partisanship seeking to exploit
religious and racial histories in
a divisive way, so we must not
permit partisanship TO exploit
regional histories against the
essential unity of our land. Our
parties must be instruments of
service our parties must

LA PAZ, Bolivia. Dec. IA
(AP) &C ommu S tiled tin
miners began a general mobili-
zation in their Andean noun
tain stronghold today, still
refusing to release four Ameri-
cans and other hostages after
holding them for more than a
week.
Bearded young admirers of
Cuba's Fidel Castro guarded
windswept passes in the Cata-
vi-Siglo Veinte mining area,
$50 miles southeast of La Paz,
with smuggled weapons OF
Communist make.
The miners started the mill
tary buildup after President

night rejected an offer from
his leftist vice president, Juan
Lechin. boss of the tin miners
union. to resign in exchange
for the release of two Com
munist union leaders jailed by

charges. Mr.. Lechin said the
miners were willing to free the
hostages, including the Ameri-

other hostages include a

Former D. c. Policeman
jailed in Bank HoIdup

A former District policeman
accused Of turning bank robber
faces Federal grand jury action
in the holdup Of a suburban
Maryland branch bank.
John Dennis Settles. %, who
has been known as John Den
mis- Bannan most of his life is
being held in Upper Marlboro
MD jail in lieu of $4,000
bond.
He is accused of being one of
two men who robbed at gun
point the District Heights
branch of the Citizens Bank of
Maryland and escaped with $4,-
780 eight days before he re-
signed from the Metropolitan
Police Department last month.
The FBI said Settles. who
under the name of Bannan
lived about a mile from the
branch bank, used his service
revolver in the robbery.
Accomplish Is Sought
A fugitive warrant has been
issued for q man accused of
being his accomplice, Frederick
Freeman Lester, jr., 80. who is
missing with his wife and chill
dren. Lester lived across the
hall from Settles in an apart
ment building in the 5000
block of Lee Jay drive, District
Heights, the FBk said.
The robbery occurred the
morning of November IL when
two men entered the branch
office. Both brandished pistols.
One wore a mask and the
other held his hand over his
face. The masked man jumped
over a counter and scooped $4,-
780 out of a cash drawer.
Bond Fixed at $4,000
They escaped in one or two
automobiles. The FBI said yes
terday that Settles was the man
who held his hand over his
face. Prince Georges County
Police reported after the rob-
berry that a number of witness
es had seen the robbers before
and after the holdup.
