would have made it much less

be subject to tax at normal

Miss Washington, who re-

$150,000 a year, grew up in

singing career as a girl. She
changed her name from Ruth

her singing gave promise of fu-

the late 1930s. One of her first
big assignments was with Lionel

U. S. OKs Honduras,
Dominican Republic
By GEORGE SHERMAN
Star Staff Writer

The United States today rec
ognized the governments of
the Dominican Republic and
Honduras.
Diplomatic relations with
both Caribbean countries have
been suspended since rapid-fire
military coups overthrow con-
stitutional governments in late
September and early October.
In announcing the decision
to recognize, State Department
officials said that both new
governments had now issued
schedules and implementing
DEGREES for a return to conSti-
tutional government. Both also
have undertaken to maintain
civil liberties and guarantee
political activity of all parties
during the interim.
National elections for constit-
uent assemblies in both Hon
duras and the Dominican
Republic will take place in Feb
ruary and March, 1865. The
first local elections will take
place in the Dominican Repub-
lie between September and No.
vember next year.
No Aid, No ENJOYS
The officials said that recog-
milton at this point does not
carry with it any resumption of
United States military or eco
nomic aid. United States Am
bassadors also will not be re-
turned to either country i'm

estimated would cost an extra
$45 million.
Senator Gore, Democrat OF
Tennessee. who has complained
that the House-pasSed measure
already favors the wealthy, told
newsmen "in my opinion. this
makes the bill much worse"
Senator Long, however, said
his proposal could be a start
on a new, simplified tax syS-
tenn which would provide great
fairness and justice for every
taxpayer"
He said wealthy persons now
are able to find ways to hold
down their taxes far below the
levels they would seem to apply
to them. Present rates run up
to 81 per cent: the ceiling would
be cut to 70 per cent by the
pending Dill.
50 Per Cent Maximum
Under Senator Longs pro-
posal, a taxpayer who elected
to give up many of his present
deductions, exclusions and
other benefits. could have the
benefit of a still lower scale.
An individual would pay 40
per cent on his first $4,000 of
income, so per cent of all above
that. For a married couple, it
would be 40 per cent on the
first 100000, and so per cent
above that.
Among other things, to use
this system, he would have to
give up the benefit of tax-ex-
empt interest on State and
local bonds. the 4 per cent
credit on stock dividend in
come, the mineral percentage
depletion deductions and all
personal deductions.
The Treasury estimates that
IL, 900 taxpayers would take ad-
vantage of the plan.

Aid Funds Cut
To S2.0 Billion
House Committee
Reports Out Bill
-AP Wirephotos
BY J. A. O'LEARY
Star Staff Writer

The House Appropriations
Committee today cut the for
eign aid program for this fiscal
year to $2.8 billion of new
money. which is SIT billion less
than the late President Ken
nedy requested.
1t is also $500 million less
than Congress authorized only
yesterday, when it sent a $50
billion enabling act to the
White House. The figures in an
authorization bill are not bind
ing on the Appropriation Com
mittees, however.
In addition to the new mon
ey, the House bill reappropri-
ates about 5000 million of I'M
spent balances that would have
gone back into the Treasury,
which makes the total availa-
BILE in the House bill a little
more than SO billion.
Vote Next Week
This is the last major bill
Congress will try to pass before
adjourning for Christmas next
week, and the final days of the
session will be marked by an
administration drive to raise
the foreign aid fund in the
Senate.
If friends of the program
persuade the Senate to ap-
propriate about $3.4 billion. the
two houses probably would
wind up with a compromise
figure of above SO billion. This
would still be a sharp cut from
the $50 billion appropriated
last year.
The House committee went
along with recommendations of
a subcommittee headed by Rep
resentative Otto E. Passman,
Democrat of Louisiana, who
has fought for years to sacle
down foreign aid.
Mr.. Passman said no effort
was made in the full committee
to restore any of the subcom-
mittee cuts. Mr.. PaSSman said
if any changes are proposed on
the floor Monday they are
more likely to be attempts to
make further cuts.
But Mr.. PaSSman said he will
defend the bill as it stands and
fight any further cuts to the
last ditch.
In proposing only $2.8 billion,
House members cited statistics
showing that the Agency for
International Development had
1924 million in unobligated bal
anceS from previous ap-
preparations on hand last June
80, plus about 81 billion in I'M
spent but obligated money
from past years.
Other Programs
In addition to the foreign aid
program, the bill contains
$295.5 million for related pro-
grams, including $50 million
for the Peace Corps. This also
is a reduction from the $102
million authorized a few days
ago for the Peace Corps.
In the ALLEGATION of foreign
aid, the House committee al
lowed the full ST billion author
lied for military assistance,
which meant the cuts were all
applied to economic aid.
In the House committee re-
port, Mr.. PaSsman noted that
at least 100 of the worlds 113
nations have been listed to re-
ceived some kind of United
States aid this year. He said it
would be wiser to concentrate
