Byrnes said, appealing for sup
port of his amendment.
This proposal would cancel
tax cuts proposed for January
1864, and January, 1865, if the
Presidents spending estimates
exceeded $97 billion for fiscaI
1864 or 500 billion for fiscal
1865.
Spending is estimated at sos
billion for fiscal 1864, and is
expected to top 500 billion in
fiscal 1865.
Mr.. Byrnes said his plan
would neither delay nor
change the tax cuts provided
by the legislation, if the spend
ing estimates stayed under the
ceilings. He added:
This Is the honest way-the
meaningful way-the RESPONSE
BILE way-to put more dollars in
your pay envelopes, 10 encour-
age investment and expansion
to create new jobs"
Differ ON Uncertainty"
Earlier yesterday, Treasury
Undersecretary Henry H. Fowl
er stated the administrations
case against restrictive amend
mentS to the tax bill.
In a speech to the California
Savings and Loan League at
Coronado Isle, Calf, Mr.. Fowl
er said an amendment making
tax cuts C ION dition a | would
create uncertainty and so i'm
pair the confidence of bust
nessmen and investors.
Mr.. Byrnes has commended
however, that his amendment
would create no added uncer-
tainty, because Congress can
not complete action on the tax
bill before December or Janu-
airy. BY mid-January, he has
said, the Presidents budget
would settle the question OF
whether sp ding estimates
were under the ceilings.
Says Tax Cuts Are Needed
Mr.. Fowler also argue
against the a m e n d m e mt on
grounds that tax cuts are need
ed on their own merits, and so
Mould not be made condi-
tional. He also observed that
budget estimates are uncertain.
The administration spokes-
man a agreed that Fe deral
spending should be controlled,
and noted that the President
has made such pledges. Tax
cuts would help balance the
budget within a few years, Mr..
Fowler said, because they
would stimulate the economy.
Without tax cuts, he warned,
the Government would be COM
PEELED to stimulate the economy
by increasing spending.
While there is no evidence
that a recession is imminent,
Mr.. Fowler said, tax cuts would
minimize the danger. If there is
a recession, he added. tax cuts
would soften the blow.

Bail Is Denied
What the defense attorney
seemed to be saying was that
Virgil Ware was not a victim
of white violence but, somehow
by being colored, its agent.
Judge Watson apparently did
not agree with this version of
the affair. He denied bail, Or

either nation can do it alone
why is it any more certain
that they can do it togetherf
The problems of a complex
technology like that of space
are not simplified by joint &C.
tivity; they are complicated.
Robert r. Gilruth, operating
head of the Apollo moon pro-
gram, spoke to this point last
Tuesday at a meeting Of the
National Rocket Club here
The problem of mating one
builders hardware (say q
spacecraft) is incredibly diff
ficult "even when they both
speak the same language" Mr.
Gilruth pointed out.
Measurement Systems Differ
Besides the language prob
lem, Russian and American en-
gineers do not even follow the
same system of measurement
In all probability they sub
scribe to different PHILOSOPHERS
of engineering - PHILOSOPHERS
which go to the basic question
of how to get to the moon.
American spacemen wran-
gled for two years over the
best way to go before finally
rejecting direct ascent and
earth-orbit rendezvous in favor
of the lunar orbit-rendezvous
technique now approved fol-
Project Apollo. What little in
formation we have on Russian
intentions points to the prob
ability that they favor earth
orbit rendezvous, possibly of a
substantial number of rockets
This is about as fundamental
as a disagreement can get. II
the Russians are proceeding
along a line the Americans
have rejected, and vice versa,
it is difficult to see how the
two countries could get to-
gether now on the time-scale
suggested by the President.
Even assuming that both
American and Russian engi-
neers are travelling the lunar
orbit-rendezvous route, there
is no assurance that what one
side is doing is adaptable to
the other sides activities. Such

construct the crime in terms
of the force and direction of
the blast.
Although there have been
approximately as bombings in
Alabama - 10 in Birmingham
alone - since January 1859, the
church bombing is only the
fifth such case where FBI
agents have been told to make
a full investigation.
Since the latest bombing,
Negro leaders have been ask
ing why the FBI hasn't delved
into the other Alabama cases.
Here is the explanation given
by Federal authorities:
The Justice Department has
taken the position that the
primary jurisdiction for inves-
tigating the bombings re-
mains with local authorities
and that Congress wanted it
that way when it passed the
bombing sections of the Civil
Rights Act of 1860.
Federal Violation
Under this act, it's a Fed
eral violation to carry ex-
plosiveS across State lines with
intent to use them to destroy
property, for the purpose Of
interfering with its use for
educational. religious, chari-
table, residential, business or
civic purposes. Although the
act is broad, the Justice DE-
partment has specifically told
the FBI that no FBI investi-
CATION should be launched
without special departmental
auCn0rlzaClOn.
That directive applies even
where local authorities request
an FBI investigation.
Where local officials request
help. the FBI informs the Jus
tice Department to get an i'm
mediate decision. If there is
no local request, the FBI pre-
sents the facts of the bomb
ing to the department but
doesn't go ahead with the in
vestigation without department
approval.
In an aggravated case like
the church bombing, the FBI
Immediately launched a full
scale investigation and told

Much Data Secret
Engineering difficulties are
not the only ones in the way OF
a joint moon program. Much
aerospace technology remains
in the category of military in
formation, and it is difficult to
see how these secrecy bars can
be dropped on either side of
the East-West line in time for
a prompt start on a Joint moon
program.

able matter Of national pride,

1t will not be impossible for
the governments concerned to
reorient the thinking of their
citizens. But where time is of
the essence Gas In Mr.. Ken
nedy's stipulation of "in this
decade") it will probably be
difficult.
Schedule SIippage
Finally, the President will be
facing schedule slippages and
cost over-runs as Republican
issues in the 1864 campaign. A
showdown now, based on the
hope or possibility of Russian
cooperation, could simply
cause more slippage, more over
run, and more campaign ora
tory next year.
The next move will be Rus
sian. 1t is their Job now to

cooperation is possible. A first
step might be more franknesS
and openness in the Soviet

perhaps, of the Kapustin Var

FBI laboratory experts are

scene of last Sundays church
bombing in Birmingham. Ala
But scientific work has moi

the FBI can say definitely
whether the explosives wert

Baptist Church caused the fatal
blast.
Search Debris
The FBI laboratory sleuths
are seeking more than how the
explosives penetrated the
church.
They are testing the debris
for any evidence that might
place a suspect on the scene or
aid in identifying him latr. This
could be a book of matches, a
cigarette from which saliva
could be recovered and typed
or a beer can with finger
prints on it.
More than a score of agents
imported from all over the
county to supplement the Bir-
mingham FBI office have fol-
lowed a methodical pattern in
their crime scene search to pre-
serve the chain of evidence.

has been drawn off and
