Mr.. Dillon and Walter H.

dents Council Of Economic
Advisers, maintained the tax
program would greatly stimu-
late business investment.
Commerce Secretary Hodges
said the Government may be
compelled to restrict overseas

and control international flow
of capital unless the problem
of deficits in the balance Of in
ternational payments is solved
within a year or two.
But Mr.. Dillon said capital
and exchange controls would

William McChesney Martin,

help the domestic economy and
would aggravate the balance

sorry his comments have been
interpreted as meaning that
the Defense Department does
not believe the subcommittee
Is conducting q fair hearing.
While he commended. q tram
script Of the testimony re-
vealed, that the questioning in
the investigation thus far has
resulted in a one-sided view
of the issues involved" Mr..
Sylvester said he was sure that
the subcommittee in the end
will find that the right deci-
sion on the contract was made.
Starting with Senator Nc
Clellan and going through the
subcommittee membership one
by one, with one exception, the
Assistant Secretary acknowl-
edged. under questioning that
he had no evidence that the
State interests Of the members
would preclude a judicial
rendering"
But he defended his remarks
and said he was attempting TO
draw a difference between a
ruling In a court and q SEN
ate committee.
The exception came when
Senator jackson. Democrat of
Washington, who suggested the
Investigation, began question:
ing. Noting that Boeing has its
headquarters in Washington.
Senator Jackson asked:
do you think I have been
unfair in these hearing?"
II have not read enough Of
your crosse x a mination to
really have an opinion" Mr..
Sylvester replied.
In the exchange with Sem
ator Jackson Mr.. Sylvester re-
ferred to efforts being made by
the disgruntled losers to knock
the contract down."
This brought a sharp rejoiner
from the Washington Senator
who said Boeing had not asked
for the investigation and had
not asked him to suggest 1t. He
demanded that Mr.. Sylvester
back up his statement.
ut is q judgment on my
part" Mr.. Sylvester replied.
What is your evidence2"
Senator jackson demanded.
Prom reading the trans
cript to date" Mr.. Sylvester
said.
AS the exchange ended SEN
ator jackson told Mr.. Sylvester:
II think this all brings out
something, that you are a little
careless with words. This is
where you get in trouble, Mr..
Sylvester. This isn't the first
time"
The Senator apparently re-
ferred to Mr.. Sylvester's re-
marks in connection with the
Cuban crisis last fall which
gave rise to widespread charges
that the Kennedy administra-
ton was attempting to manage
the news.

rome Alderman suggested TO
Mr.. Spangenberg that economy
was supposed TO flow from one
service plane and that there
had to be compromises in the
design with both Navy and Air
Force trading off something. "
THE idea of one airplane
was q money-saving idea Of
the Secretary Of Defense" Mr..
Spangenberg said. ''The de-
cision to compromise the re-
quirements was levied on the
services by the Secretary Of
Defense. The Air Force was
given the administration OF the
program and aold, Meet these
requirements All have said
right now is that they were
unable to meet the original
requirements levied on the
services by the Secretary Of
Defense In one airplane."
The expert testified that the
Boeing design came closer TO
meeting the requirements.
No Improvement Expected
Mr.. spangenberg said he was
not one of those people who
thought a common plane for
both services could be developed
under the requirements set by
Mr.. Mcnamara on September /.
1861.
Senator Mundt. Republican
Of South Dakota. asked whether
the plane contracted for with
General Dynamics. when 1t Is
completed. win be stu below
expectations or II the contract
provides for improvements TO
bring the plane up to original
requirements.
II think 1t would be wishful
thinking to think there are
going to be compulsory i'm
provements," Mr.. Spangenberg
replied.
AS for the TEX plane, Mr..
Spangenberg said:
I'VE have achieved q design
that we think will be q salts
factory Navy air fighter and
that the Air Force thinks win
be an acceptable tactical plane.
They do represent achieve
ments over our current inven-
tories.
They are both worth buy
ing. but they did not meet the
initial requirements. Part Of
the reason, / am sure, for this
extended program we have been
in is because we had some IRA
