The District Commissioners

give city residents tax incen-
tives for property improve
ments.
In q statement submitted to
a House District subcommittee
yesterday the Commissioners
said:
"Concededly, encouraging the
improvement Of owner-occupied
houses In the District is q
worthwhile objective"
They added, however, that
the city cannot afford 1t now
The statement said:
a.. The use Of real property
tax abatement and income tax
reduction as a means to that
end is not, in the opinion of
the Commissioners, the best
method of accomplishing that
objective"
Currently, the Commissioners
said, So per cent Of the land
area in the District Is exempt
from real property taxation
and "the granting Of further
additional exemptions could be-
come an extremely serious mat
ter to the District revenue

Ranger Program Slashed
One of the largest percentage
reductions in space sciences was
in the trouble plagued Ranger
program, which is to take close
up television pictures Of the
moons surface. The 800 mil
lion request was reduced $25
million.
Representative Karth, Demo-
crat of Minnesota, chairman OF
the subcommittee which han
died this section, said $40 mil
lion Of the cut was for a 18th
Ranger vehicle, which has not
yet been firmly decided upon.
In addition, funds were de-
ferred for a year on an earlier
part of the Ranger program
because extensive tests are UNI
der way that may result in
redesigning it.
Only two programs were
eliminated entirely from the
budget. They were the Sur

to study interplanetary re-entry

that too far in the future
to need funds now.

Mississippi Man
 Held for Murder Of Negro Evers

JACKSON, Miss. R - Byron de la Beckwith, white man, was held in Jackson jail today charged with the murder of Negro inte- grafton leader Medgar Evers.
 Still unaccounted for in the killing of the 37-year-old Evers were "others unknown" charged along with Beckwith in a separate federal complaint made public after the FBI arrested Beckwith Saturday night.
 Beckwith is a 42-year-old former tobacco salesman and more recently chemical fertilizer sales agent, from Greenwood, Miss. He is being held without bond.
 One of 15,000 telescopic sights and a fingerprint on it led the FBI to Beckwith at Greenwood. They found five of the imported six-power Golden Hawk sights went to Mississippi, all to a Gren- ada gun dealer.
 One was traced to Beckwith, a gun collector, whom the FBI ques- toned Friday night without getting any answers.
 Saturday night at a meeting ar ranged by Greenwood attorney FBI agents arrested Beckwith under provisions of the 1857 Civil Rights Act.
 ''Beckwith and other unknowns conspired to injure, oppress and intimidate Medgar Evers in the free exercise and enjoyment O. rights and privileges secured tt him by the constitution" the FB said.
 Capt. Ralph Hargrove, chief O the Jackson Police Identification Bureau, fingerprinted Beckwith Sunday and said his prints matched one on the scope attached to a .3O-caliber rifle that fired the fatal shot.

Kennedy and
 Adenauer Agree to Stronger Defenses

BONN R - President Kennedy and German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer agreed today "to use their best efforts" to bring into being multi-national nuclear force to strengthen the defenses of Western Europe.
 A communique announced they also agreed that every effort will be made to strengthen common defense planning and joint opera tion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization defense forces.
 The communique came near the end of Kennedy's two-day visit to this West German capital at the start of his swing around Western Europe.
 Shortly before the communique was issued, Kennedy reminded the NATO Allies, through a news con- ference statement, that the United States has borne a major burden of European defense for Is years. And he said he expects them to consider this in shaping their economic, trade and monetary policies.
 In effect Kennedy urged allied governments to reject discrimin- atory trade policy that would hurt US. economic interests. He ap- pealed for cooperation in other fields also.
 Adenauer and Kennedy pledged themselves in their communique to carry out their undertaking within "the free worlds strategy of peace"
 Kennedy avoided any direct criticism of President Charles De Gaulle of France at his news con- ference. But much that he said and much that went into the com- munique was in conflict with De Gaulle's aims.
 The American President asked for closer cooperation among all the Allied countries and strength in alliance was to be obtained through actions by many coun- tries together rather than through two-country deals such as the re- cent French-German treaty. But he said the United States had made no objection to the treaty.
 Kennedy told reporters that time and changing events may yet bring about the unification of Germany, and, "I don't think anyone should dispair." But he saw no imme- diate solution to the problem of a divided Germany.
 Kennedy, who received a loud and enthusiastic welcome from half a million Germans at the start of his European tour Sunday, went to Adenauer's office in the Palais Schaumburg in late morning. The two men talked with only inter prefers present.

 He also urged new efforts to ban weapons of mass destruction from outer space.
 The President addressed the U. N. General Assembly which Thursday heard a policy declara- tion from Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko. Kennedy matched the moderate, conciliatory tone set by Gromyko and hailed by U. N. delegates as welcome change in the international at mosphere.
 Gromyko had this brief com- ment:
 q think the general tone of the speech is conciliatory and this is good. As to the concrete proposals made in the speech would pre- fer not to comment now because would like to study them more thoroughly
 The one jarring note was boy colt by the Cuban delegation, whose seats were conspicuously vacant in the crowded chamber.
 The public was excluded from the galleries for security reasons, but the seats were packed with spec tators - including members o1 the Ill U. N. staff personnel.
 In a major foreign policy pro. nouncement Kennedy said the ne. gotiation of a limited nuclear test ban treaty - which he predicted would win overwhelming en- dorsement" from the U. s. Senate next week could prove "the start of a long and fruitful jour- ney' toward peace.
