Pentagon Pushes Studies
Of More Base Cutbacks

thought there were local an
nouncements.
Why. then, was it decided to
deal with the latest SO base
cutbacks in a group?
Some Pentagon officials said
the appraisal Of base efficiency
comes to a sharp focus at the
end of the budget year-that
is, when the new budget is
being put into its final shape.
This is such a time, and
could explain the decision to
lop off a number of bases in a
search for the last measure of
economy.
Economy Goal
AS for the wide publicity
this likely stems from the
j hnSon administrations
demonstrated desire to impress
its observation-disclosures on the
country. Very prominent in Mr..
Men a mara's announcement
was a reference to the new
Presidents announced goal of
economical operation of all
agencies"
While economy is politically
appealing, it carries certain
risks. A community which loses
a military base and several
thousand jobs could resent
such economy at its expense
and vote accordingly.
The cutbacks announced
yesterday include installations

The 27l2 per cent (oil and
gas) depletion allowance. the
fact that under the intangible
drilling and development cost
provision from 10 to go per
cent of costs can be written
off in the first year, the capital
gains provisions for oil and
gas, and the loss carryover pro-
visions as well as the other
loopholes in the tax laws, are
the means by which these six
millionaire oil operators paid
little or no taxes in 1860"

Marian Anderson Plans
F ForeWeN Tour in 1864

NEW YORK, Dec. 13 (AP).-
Marian Anderson, whose voice
has thrilled millions, will make
a farewell world concert tour
next year and retire the follow
ing spring.
Miss Anderson. 55, an
nounced her plans yesterday at
a news conference. On the
lapel of her blue satin jacket
was pinned a silver eagle set on
a blue ribbon: The Freedom
Medal presented to her by
President Johnson last Friday.
The Negro contralto's plans
after retirement are not defin-
ite, but she indicated she would
become more active in the civil
rights struggle. and also is
thinking about speaking to
children in the schools-urging
them to gain all possible educa-
tion.
1T is important to get into
the field and to be Of service
where there might be a need
said Miss Anderson, who on
January 7. 1855. became the
first Negro to sing at the
Metropolitan Opera House.
The Philadelphia born artist
had to go to Europe to achieve
initial singing fame. There she.
was discovered" in 1885 by Sol
Hurok who brought her back to
America and who has bten her
manager ever since. In that
same year, she created a sensa-
ton at a recital in New York's
Town Hall.
On Easter Sunday Of 1899.
the Daughters Of the American
Revolution refused Miss Ander-
son permission to sing in Con-
stitution Hall, Washington.
Instead, she sang at the Lin
coin Memorial to a crowd of u.s.
000-including Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt. wife of the Presi-
dent. Mrs. Roosevelt resigned
her OAR membership as a
result of the incident.

about that long-ago occasion,

a cost reduction target set
nearly three years ago.
He predicted the Defense
Department will be able to
reach a $500 million plateau in
such savings in about three
years.
Mr.. Mcnamara said yester-
day that about $500 million q
year is a reasonable objective"
to be achieved through further
reductions in the 6,700 bases
and installations in this coun-
try and overseas.
Stresses Efficiency
Mr.. Morris concerns himself
with the facts Of base efficien-
cy and leaves the political
considerations to Mr.. McNama-
ra.
Although the Defense Secre-
tary told reporters no bases
were given reprieves, there is
reason to believe that several
were on the ragged edge for a
time.
One high official indicated
the day before Mr.. McNa-
mara's decisions were an
nounced that the Philadelphia
Navy Yard was in danger of
being closed. 1t wasn't closed
at least not this round.
Whether the strong protests
of poserful Congress members
saved some bases in the nick of
time may never be known.
Most Of the 400 base elimina-
tions and curtailments ordered
since March Of 1861 were
spaced out and handled with
out national publicity. al

However, the agency did
concede there would be sig
nificant reduction" in rail
competition inside Florida. Even
so, the two lines already have
"an imperfect monopoly" there
the ICC noted.
The disSenters accused the
majority of putting Govern
ment regulation ahead of pri-
vate competition. in no prior
case has the commission de-
stroyed so much competition
with so little justification,
Commissioner Webb wrote.
AS a result of the merger
Mr.. Webb said, the southeast

cent Of the total miles of road
"and almost 95 per cent after

the merged line actually could
become a monopoly. 1T Is not
prudent to assume that the
Southern will always be a
vigorous competitor Of the

not join the, merged company

said.

I ICC ordered the two merging
lines to adopt operating prac-

Should the speculation about
Mr.. Mann's appointment prove
to be correct, it evidently would
mean the upgrading of controls
over Latin American affairs to

Set Up By Kennedy
The Alliance for Progress was
set up by the late President
John F. Kennedy with the aim
of promoting sweeping social,
economic and political reforms
in Latin America.
1t has been developed as a
cooperative undertaking with
the United States to provide
81 billion a year over a To-
year period in Latin American
aid.
In the first two years the
United States has committed
loans and grants totaling $2.3
billion and Alliance officials es-
innate it has actually paid out
about $1.8 billion.
In spite of this financial out
lay the Alliance has been the
target of a steady stream Of
complaints and criticisms by
Latin American leaders.
Their most constant COM
plant has been that the oper-
alton was hamStrung by too
much bureaucratic red tape
and that there had been too
much United States effort to
dictate development projects to
them.
u. S. Complaints
United States officials, on
the other hand, have COM

lance has not, as they see it,

United States-Latin American

hoped for.
