Follows Neutral Course
BY the Associated Press

Veteran politician Salah
Bitar, named today to head
turbulent Syria's revolutionary
regime, is a tall. scholarly So
cialist with a ferVent belief in
Arab unity.
He refuses to classify himself
as either Communist or reac-
tionary and follows what he
calls a neutral course. Bitar
emissions the future Middle East
as a neutralist belt between
East and West.
The one-time Syrian Foreign
Minister led his delegation to

Although named both Prime
Minister and Foreign Minister

to exhaustive workloads. He is
known as a man who labores

The Kennedy administration
is withdrawing at least two
concessions previously offered
the Soviet Union at the Geneva
negotiations on a nuclear test
ban treaty.
This was disclosed yesterday
in detailed testimony on the
Administrations new draft
treaty presented to the Joint
Atomic Energy Committee of
Congress by DR.. Franklin Long.
chief scientist of the Arms Con-
troll and Disarmament Agency.
No longer will the United
States accept on-site inspection
teams for the Soviet Union
without American or British
nationals as the most important
components of the teams. Pre-
viously the United States had
peen wiling TO accept on-site
teams for exploration of the
Soviet Union without United
States or United Kingdom ma
tionals, although negotiators
had expressed the hope they
would be included.
Quake Zones Not Exempt
No longer does the United
States exempt from suspicion
areas historically free from
earthquakes. Previously the
United States had offered 70
concentrate its attention on
earthquake-prone areas.
In the new draft treaty now
being written in the disarma-
ment agency, DR.. Long told the
Joint committee, the United
States is now ready to accept
one other long-standing de-
mand by the Soviet Union.

United States as an executive
body responsible for operation
OF the treaty inspection provi-
sions now will be regarded
merely as a claring house with
out operating authority.
In case Of detection of an
event suspected to have been
a nuclear test, the pres
emily contemplated interna-
tional commission will merely
relay the accuser's suspicious
to the accsed.
Position UncIear
1t was unclear whether this
new position would be tanta-
mount to accepting the sug-
gestion Of the eight non-allied
powers in the Geneva negotia-
lions that on-site inspection
be conducted by invitation only.
1t appeared. from DR.. Longs
testimony. that the United
States was seeking to meet in
this way the uncommitted
powers suggestion for on-site
inspection by invitation only.
Earlier scientist witnesses
before the Joint Atomic Energy
Committee had. testified that
the previous inspection system
relying on stations inside the
Soviet Union, was somewhat
better than the new system,
which depends mainly on long
range detection outside the So
Wet Union. DR.. Long, however.
said yesterday that the old
system was far from ideaP'
because of its cost and in
effectiveness.
He told the committee the

TaxLift Barred
Boost Might Come
If Need Arises
BY JOHN BARRON
Star Staff Writer

Arlington County Board
members are hopeful that they
can significantly increase both
governmental end school ex-
penditures without imposing
new taxes this year.
They agreed today to adver.
tise an 11-cent increase in the
real estate rate so that 1t will b.
legally possible to enact one L
necessary.
But optimism that it win no
lbe needed grew as Count.
Manager Burt w. johnson pre-.
scented q balanced budget il
which he requested $l8.3 mil.
lion for local government ir
l1963-4.
This IL about 81 million Of
IS per cent more than the
county government is spend
ing this fiscal year, but it will
not require added property
levies.
However, Mr.. johnson did
recommend that charges for
water be raised from z3 to 70
cents per thousand gallons to
finance a IS million bond issue
for construction Of a secondary
sewage treatment plant.
Partial Offset
He said the higher charges
partially would be offset by
elimination Of a Sc yearly
service fee and that Arlington
water rates still would be the
lowest in Northern Virginia.
Some Jump in bills had been
anticipated since last year when
the Corps of Engineers, which
supplies the County with water,
raised its prices.
Board Chairman Thomas w
Richards declared that Mr.
johnson had done IAN out
standing job" in preparing his
first budget in Arlington.
While maintaining the high
Quality of existing community
services. the budget also pro-
vides for improvement of oui
streets, police protection, library
and for purchase Of critically
needed land" Mr.. Richard:
said.
II it is to avoid new levies
the County Board now must
balance the SIT million school
budget which as presently
proposed contains a deficit Of
of some $450,000.
New Teacher Pay Method
THE school budget also ap-
pears to be an excellent one
II embodies a dramatic concept
of compensating teachers. one
which will make Arlington
teachers the best paid in the
Washington area and among
the best paid in the Nation.
Mr.. Richards said.
I'VE certainly can't promise
that we can do all Of this with.
out raising taxes and we will
have to advertise a tax increase
TO give ourselves leeway. But
I'm quite optimistic that we car
find enough money and make
enough minor changes to make
up the deficit"

Syrian Council
Ends Border
Restrictions
Bitur Is Named
President, New
Cabinet Complete

BEIRUT, Lebanon, Mar. 8
(AP).-Syria's revolutionary
council eased border controls
today. The country moved back
toward normally under a new
20-man cabinet in the wake OF
a military coup staged by Of
ficers friendly to Egypt's Presi-
dent Canal Abdel Nasser.
The new premier is Salah
Bitar, a veteran politician who
heads the moderate wing of
the Arab Ba'ath Socialist Party.
Little more than "a hours
after the uprising, airports and
seaports we're ordered reopened.
Automobile traffic was allowed
to move again and approved
food trucks we're permitted to
enter and leave the country.
Frontiers were opened to Dip
lomats and to other foreigners
approved by Syria's internal
security forces.
Mr.. Nasser extended diplo-
matte recognition to the revo-
lutionary regime, thus formally
accepting the separate status
Of Syria for the first time since
it revolted and broke away
from the United Arab Repub-
lie in 1861.
Pioneer Movement
The Egyptian leader said the
previous union was "a pioneer
movement from which we
benefited much, and these
benefits are resources for the
Arab future and Arab unity"
Jordan and Algeria also ex-
tended recognition.
Mr.. Bitar was a cabinet
minister in the United Arab
Republic cabinet when Syria
and Egypt we're joined as one
nation. He quit. however, be-
fore the final split and has
maintained his support for
Syrian independence.
A new 20-man cabinet was
announced in Syria at dawn
today, Mr.. Bitar, its chief. is
believed to favor continued
Syrian independence with close
ties to Egypt and also to the
revolutionary government in
Iraq.
Leads Moderate Wing
Mr.. Bitar is the leader of the
moderate wing of the Arab
Bath Socialist Party. This is
a multi-national party in the
Arab world and the group
which recently staged the
Iraqui revolution.
The Yemen radio praised the
blessed revolt" and said its
armed forces would spring TO
its support if necessary.
In Belgrade, the Yugoslay
government newspaper Borba
said the coup was a new sue
cess Of the Arab world in liber-
alton from foreign influences
and domestic reaction and
therefore a success of the forces
of peace"
State of Ferment
Syria broke away from Egypt
two years ago. 1t has been in
a state Of ferment ever since.
American sources said all
United States citizens in Da-
mascus were safe.
Mr.. Nasser said he had heard
OF mobilization on Syria's bor-
ders, but he did not say who
was mobilizing. He might have
meant Israel and, on the other
hand. he might have meant
Jordan.

Of a plea for an active role by his
archdiocese in the current civil

sing disagreement with the card

The cardinal, according to the
report, stated that the Negro is
treated better in Los Angeles than
in any other city in the nation
and that it Is outsiders" who are
creating trouble. The outsider ap-
proach is frequently used by seq

action.
The cardinals statement paint

8. He can get the counsel Of

domestic maladjustments are in
volved in the problem. In St. Paul,
Family Service also provides pro-

is referred to the Wage Garner

cy court for a pro-rating plan
under which he agrees to pay to
the court each payday a stipulat-
ed sum which Is then disbursed
to the creditors.
5. He can file bankruptcy, sur
render all his assets except those
exempted by statute, such as
homestead, household furniture
and equipment, and the tools of
his trade, and be discharged of his
debts.
There Is actually a sixth course
open to the rare individual who
has the initiative to take it: he
can write to his creditors or call
upon them, explain his plight, and
propose a plan Of payments 10
them based upon what he can
take out Of his current earnings.
Most creditors will accept such a
proposal and refrain from taking
action as long as the debtor keeps
up his commitment to them. He
becomes his own pro-rater.
This is the least costly and often
the most satisfactory solution. it
puts the debtor on the road to
sound financial management. All
solutions except this and the credit
union solution are likely to be cost
ly. This will be explained in a sec
ond article to be published next
week.
