two lines working out of Farm
vile to Hampden-Sydney at that
time with about Is phones to the
line" Berry said. IAN rings
would go through each house.
There were only two or three
other rural lines going out Of
Farmville at that time"
The Bulkeville exchange had
about 80 phones in 1920" he
added. = and l travelled back and
fourth by train most of the
time, because the roads were not
in very good condition"
Back in those days, Berry's
means of transportation was a
model-T Ford and a good pair
Of legs. II would drive my
Ford as far as l could and then
take off hiking to service many
of the lines he said.
There has been a decided
change in the attitude OF the pub
lie toward service too. Thirty
five years ago, a person would
write a post card and say their
rhone had been out Of order for
a few days, and they would like
you to come and fix it at your
convenience. Today, the person
with the phone out of order will
go to a nearby neighbor and I
have been called out at all
hours of the night" Berry stat
ed.
1t is also interesting to note
that rural lines now have a limit
Of eight stations per line and
they are equipped with auto
matte ringing signals
Cut Own Poles
when we needed a pole for
the rural lines in the old days"
said Berry, 1--WE would go to a
nearby farmer and he would
generally give us a pole on the
stump. We would cut it leaving
the limbs about six inches from
the trunk so we'd have some
thing to climb up on"
Mr.. Johns was one of the
finest men l ever knew" Berry
recalled. He gave me all Of
the lumber out of an old tele-
phone office, and helped me
build my house in 1926. which I
still own and it is located in
Jackson Heights"
Berry has a remarkable rec
ord for attendance on the job.
He has never missed a days
work because of sickness. His
record of safety is just as good
with no man accidents and no
automotive accidents.
When Berry worked for Mr..
Johns. his working hours were
from sun-up to shutdown. AS his
working hours decreased later
he found time to take on addi-
tional jobs, all realted to tele-
phone work. For about 80 years

possible, free to fulfil their as

the states and localities are to
provide and control education,
but not without any safeguards
or constitutional restrictions at
all. The right to aspire to the
best education available for
our children without implication
of infeliority is surely not a
right of white people alone.
What we need to do is not so
much, as President Kennedy
said, to search our conscien-
ces' as to be very sure that they
are enlightened consciences. A
book concerning racial differen-
ces Just published by three psy
biologists in the deep South ends
with the question: How do we
close the gap? Perhaps there
is no final answer. But mani
testify a policy Of keeping the
public schools closed serves on
~ to increase the gap. And this
is not to any ones best inter-
est. Should the responsible lead
ers of the white races in this
County Favored by almost ev-
cry advantage continue h j S
policy Of delay on the off chance
of a dubious constitutional vic
tory that most Of lis think is
doomed even though we know
it will be difficult?

Hungary issue from the United

Senator Lausche, making pub

He said the reports gave ele-
ments of the deal as including
a Communist promise to release
Cardinal Josef Mindzenty and
20 leaders of the 1856 revolt
that was crushed by Soviet

Senator Lausche cited a story

Kennedy Seen
Tying TaxCut
To His Budget
BY the Associated Press

President Kennedy is expect
ed to tie his proposals for tax
cuts and reforms to the Federal
budget he will present to Con-
gress this month.
Thus he would disclose right
off the bat not only how much
the proposals would reduce the
public's individual tax bills but
how big a deficit they would
likely create.
The figures now are closely
guarded.
Officials foresee a record
peacetime budget of about 500
billion. Not eager to set a red
ink record, the administration
repeatedly is determined to
shape its tax and spending pro-
posals to prevent a deficit of
more than $12.4 billion. That's
the peacetime peak reached in
1859 when Dwight d. Eisenhow-
er was President.
The most optimistic revenue
estimates for the fiscal year
starting July l, combined with
Mr.. Kennedy's forecast of high
er spending for defense and
space, suggest a deficit of $40
billion or more.
BY all accounts, Mr.. Kennedy
seeks tax reduction of between
SIS billion and $40 billion a year
for individuals and corpora
tions. But he plans to recon-
mend decreasing the rates in
stages to avoid a sharp, imme-
diate drop in revenues and to
mollify those in Congress who

Serious" Consequences

street cars. Taxi service, by
Western standards, also is in
adequate.
In recent years, auto traffic
has become a problem on ma
jor thoroughfares. The admin
istration has taken a few meas
ures such as closing some
streets to trucks, and introduc-
ing one-way arteries. Most taxi
drivers swear this has only
made matters worse.
To drain off cross-city traf-
fic the government built a
highway around Moscow, called
the ring road. Many trucks use
the road but it appears to have
made little difference on the
slow-moving stream of traffic
in Moscow.
Despite these problems, many
Russians dream of living in
Moscow, a so-called closed city
since 1881. Those who do have
permission to live here wouldn't
think of leaving it to live in
the backwoods, as they call the
provinces.

VIENNA, Jan. 8 (AP).-
Czechoslovakia has drastically

power shortage, the newspaper
Bratislava Pravda received here

Prague announced last week
the government had banned
electric signs and ordered other

are distressed at the thought Of
increasing the deficit.
Mr.. Kennedy may discuss his
program in general in his state
of-the-Union m ess age next
Monday. He will give the par
ticulars in a special tax mes
sage following the budget.
No date has been fixed for
the budget message. When it
comes. informed sources said,
ut will include the date and
amount Mr.. Kennedy thinks
best for the first stage of a
cut.
This in itself represents a
departure. In the past, PreSi-
dents have separated spending
from tax proposals on the
theory that it's less upsetting
for Congress to get news of
growing deficits a piece at a
time.
Many administration plan
ners are keenly aware that
whatever develops this year will
be as much or more a product
of Representative Mills, Demo-
crat, Of Arkansas, than their
own. Mr.. Mills will exercise
great control over the extent
and timing of tax legislation
as it passes through the Ways
and Means Committee, which
he heads.
The immediate concern of
Kennedy advisers is the intru-
sion of another controversy
over the debt ceiling and the
political pressures it will gen.
crate. Legislation to retain or
raise the present ceiling of 1908
billion Is due for action before
March 81, when it is scheduled
to drop to $305 billion. And un-
less something is done, the limit
goes back to $285 billion on
June 30.
Republicans may again make
the debt an issue, and they
may be joined by conservative
Democrats who traditionally
make an effort to hold the CELL
ing down. Looking ahead to the
task of consolidating votes for
tax reduction, one official said.

A scientific committee has
urged the Federal Government
to reorganize and expand its
research on natural resources

tries and low-income areas in
this country.
In a report to President Ken

cial committee of the National
Academy of Sciences-National
Research Council said the
United States is challenged to
help provide for greater de-
mands for products of water,
soil. forests, and minerals for
emerging nations as well as for
our own domestic low-income

sources over the next few
decades.

U. S. Urged to Expand
Research on Resources

Substitutions as certain re-
sources become less available"
The report is the result of
an assignment given to the
National Academy of Sciences
"a year ago by the President, to
evaluate present research in
the natural resources field and
to recommend programs of re-
search.
New OrientatiOn Urged
1t calls for "a basically new
orientation and organization"
of such research, but a spokes-
man for the committee said
the plea could be described as
one calling for "a shift in
philosophy from the cautious
outstanding of scarcities to the
wise management of plenty"
Among its recommendations,
the committee urges establish
ment of a central natural re-
sources group within the Gov
ernment to coordinate an
expanded research program in
volving a majority of the
United States agencies.
1t also called for increased
support of research involving
the location, movement, be-
havior and quality of water;
more backing for ocean fisher
les research and for studies
aimed at discovering and de-
lveloping mineral deposits;
widened research on the pollu-
ton of water, air and soil;
increased basic research in
plant and animal geneticS and
breeding, and added support
for studies aimed at develop
ing "low-cost sources of in
dustrial energy"
