On Terms in Congress

NEW YORK, Jan. 8 (AP).-
Former President Eisenhower
was reported today to favor a
limit on the number of terms
a member of Congress could
serve so the seniority promo
ton system would be modified.
The report came from the
New York Times news service
in dispatch from Gettysburg,
Pa, Gen. Eisenhower's hcme.
1t said the former President
also advocates that no more
than half of a persons Federal
income tax be withheld from
his salary so the taxpayer will
come to realize his "contribu-
tion to Federal profligacy."
The dispatch, without quot
ing Gen. Eisenhower. said:
I'm two years of thinking on
the problems he encountered as
President, Gen. Eisenhower has
developed some definite ideas
for undermining Government
procedures and giving greater
effect to the constitutional
principle of checks and balances
between the Legislative and
Executive Branches.
"One of these would abolish
or substantially modify the con-
gressional senioaty system of
promoting members according
to political longevity.

The dispatch said that Gen.
Eisenhower. in his correspond

in Federal spending concurrent
with any reduction in personal

said:
with less to spend from

the new Congress will see the

a so per cent withholding limi-
tation to make the individual
taxpayer realize the extent of
his contribution to Federal
profligacy.'
THAT realization will come,
Eisenhower believes, when the
average citizen has to draw on
his savings or borrow at the
end Of the year to pay the
other half of his income taxes
unless he has laid aside some
money every month for the
purpose"

Tax Plan Aid
BY the Associated Press

President Kennedy could ease
the way for tax reduction by
announcing a moratorium on
all new Federal spending pro-
grams mot designed to deal
with actual emergencies" an
influential House Republican
said today.
The suggestion came from
Representative Byrnes of Wis
consin. senior Republican mem
Der of the House Ways and
Means Committee. BY giving
this sort of assurance, Mr..
ByrneS indicated in an inter-
view, Mr.. Kennedy might find
room in the divided Congress
for agreement on a substantial
tax revision program within a
reasonable time.
Mr.. Kennedy's tax reform
and reduction proposals will
meet their first tests in the
Ways. and Means Committee.
AS senior G. o. P. member Of
this group and as chairman Of
the Republican Conference, Mr..
Byrnes is a principal spokesman
for his party on revenue mat
ters.
II don't take the position
that you have to make up the
lost revenue of a tax cut, dollar
for dollar, with spending re-
ductions and loophole closings,"
Mr.. Byrnes said.
He said he expects the Re-
publicans to take a party posi-
ton on the tax issue and to
emphasize the need to control
spending as part Of any re-
vision plan. But, in advance of
specific details of the admin
istration proposal. he declined
