cent acroSs-the-board reduction
on the pay raise totals, which
amount to about $12.4 million.
This $12.4 million figure
covers the pay raises voted by
Congress for the city's classified
employees along with policemen,
firemen and teachers. Under
the committees recommended
ton, each department would
find some way to absorb the
percentage reduction. The 3 per
cent cut for the school system
comes to about $l39,30, for the
fire department to $34,970, and
for the police department,
$75,8
Federal Government agencies
have been ordered to absorb a
higher percentage reduction in
the Government employe pay
raises.
A substantial portion Of the
total $50 million reduction in
the city's budget requests Is
accounted for by various last
minute adjustments and by de-
ferrals of projects.
The committee report said
that the late adjustments by
the District add up to a de-
crease of $811, 200-mainly as
a result Of lower welfare case
load estimates. City officials
also have agreed to reductions
and deferrals amounting to
nearly 1913 million, the COM
mittee said.
Under today's recommended
lions, requests by the District
for an additional Sill job posi-
tions would be cut to 374.
The Appropriations Commit
tee approved a proposal by city
officials TO cut back on the
scope OF plans TO consolidate
and improve District General
Hospital in order to stay with
in an earlier $ll.8 million ap.
preparation.
After the money had beer
appropriated, the city officials
said the estimate should have
been $3.4 million higher.
One Of the more controver-
sial recommendations by the
committee is TO deny again a
request for permanent librarian
positions in the Junior high
schools.
The only major capital out
: lay disapproval was on a re-
quest by the Washington Aque-
5 duct for 100000 for shops and

said.
The new restriction would put
Castro's Cuba in the came cate
CORY as Red China in financial
dealings.
Official sources said the
freeze Of Cuban bank assets
applies to funds, securities and
real estate. The total in money
and securities is estimated at
$33 million $40 million be-
longing to the Cuban state and
$1S million to Cubans residing
in Cuba.
Officials said the immediate
practical effects of the ban
would be:
/. Castro Cubans could no
longer use American banks for
transmitting funds to Latin
America for subversive pur-
poses.
2. Cuban refugees could no
longer send money to relatives
in Cuba except by special Ii
cenSe.
Officials said refugee trans
initials presently run to a
"sizable figure"
The penalty for violating the
ban is $4,000 fine or 10 years
imprisonment for each offense.
The United States already
had banned all United States
exports to Cuba except food
and medicine shipments. These
exemptions will not be affected
by the new regulation, officials
said.

week or two before the pend
ing bill was recommended by
the President, Senators were
being told by Justice Depart
ment officials that such legis-
lation was not necessary.
The Senator made the state
ment while Assistant Attorney
General Burke Marshall, head
of the Civil Rights Division,
was on the witness stand de-
Tending the measure.
Senator Scott pointed out
that early this year several Re-
publican Senator'S had bills in
PRODUCED to authorize the At
torney General to file suits to
protect any civil rights, and
that these would have covered
discrimination in public ac-
commodationS, includin g
schools.
Senator Scott told Mr.. Mar

on-site inspection, required
only for underground shots,
although he is understood to
be ready to respond with flexi-
bility to any Soviet interest in
reaching broader agreement.
On the Khrushchev proposal
for a non-aggression pact the
Undersecretary is prepared to
discuss it but not to negotiate,
since it affects the United
States NATO partners. Mr..
Hartman is ready to listen to
Soviet views, of course, and to
Judge whether the Kremlin is
now willing to come closer to
the Western concept of a nom
aggression treaty.
He is expected to insist on
two fundamentals: First, that
the status of Berlin remain I'M
affected; second, that the divi-
sion of Germany must not be
frozen. NATO policy calling
for eventual unification of Ger
many remains firm.
If Premier KhruShchev gen.
timely wants an East-WeSt de-
tente there are several formu-
las that could be worked out for
agreement on a non-aggreSSion
pact, according to the official
United States view. The COM
bination of a partial test ban
and non-aggression pact
would tend to relieve tension,
as Mr.. Khrushchev contends,
officials here acknowledge.
British Position Weighed
Some agreement on mea-
sureS to stop the spread of
nuclear weapons to other
countries may be discussed as
part OF the test ban problem
"a further step in the same
direction.
British delegate Lord Hail
sham was reported ready to
press for some move against
proliferation of nuclear wea-
ponS.
The, British also were re-
ported ready to raise the pros
pect for a series of summit
meetings of President Ken
nedy. Premier Khrushchev and
Prime Minister Mcmillan II a
progression of tension-reduc-
ing measures could be set in
motion.
The President, however, re-
mains cautious on offering the
Kremlin summit conferences
without reasonable chances of
success.

today, Mr.. Marshall testified
that persuasion will not solve
the problem in a locality where
only one establishment wants
to segregate, because the others
cannot desegregate for fear of
giving a competitive advantage
to the one exception.
Mr.. Marshall said also ex-
perience during the last few
weeks has demonstrated that
no problem is of greater i'm

mating discrimination in places

Senator Scott suggested that
the same statement could have

have said that they would have

Other Comments
Other comments in the COM
mittee's report included:
l. Serious crime in the Dis
trict climbed to new levels dur
ing the past fiscal year. Resi-
dents and visitors ARE entitled
to a system of law enforcement
which will insure them the right
to transact their business and
to traverse the streets at any
time without fear of assault.
When criminal charges are
preferred and clearly estab-
lished, adequate sentences
should follow. Any deviation
from this process makes a
mockery of law enforcement
and justice"
2. "The unpleasant truth is
that we are not even holding
the line against juvenile de-
linquency only 20 per cent
OF the cases sent TO Juvenile
Court resulted in commitment
OF the suspected offender to
either the District or Federal
corrective institutions. They
are turned back on the streets
before the police are aware Of
their release"
3. THE percentage Of people
who are unable to read or write
has risen in Washington during
the past 30 years while illit-
eracy, generally, has decreased
throughout the rest of our
country
4. The Districts public school
system has been slow to expand
the hot-lunch program TO
elementary school children,
There is probably no place in
our country where there are
more hungry children who des-
lperately need the benefits OF
this program than in the Dis
trict of Columbia"
After being questioned by
subcommittee members on this
matter, school officials have
approved an elementary school,
lunch program.

To give his fresh start

Undersecretary will try to avoid

to exploit these.
He is not expected to spend
much time trying to convince
Mr.. KhruShchev's representa-
tive to consider a comprehen-
sive treaty in the Russians in

The fact that the committee
voted to hold the Federal pay
ment to $50 million should not
be taken to mean that the
committee is welded to that
amount, it was reliably re-
ported. The reasoning was that
it would be out of line to rec
ommend higher Federal pay
ment this time than was voted
for the past year, considering
the fact that the total spend
ing figure is lower than the
past years budget.
Every consideration will be
given the additional Federal
payment request in the b
budget" Representative Match

He conducted budget hearings
and recommended the spend

committee this morning.
This second budget should be
ready to submit Immediately
after the Senate and House
agree on the amount of the
annual Federal payment to be
given the city in the future.
The House has voted for a flat
$45 million and a Senate COM
mittee is expected this week

yield about SIS million next
