THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Saturday, June 19, 1954 Democrats Promise Senate Fight For Added Tax Cuts By JOE HALL WASHINGTON # — Sen. George (D-Ga) said today Democrats would fight in the Senate to write ae income tax cuts into a general x revision bill that pro- vides nearly 14% ilion’ dollars in tax relief for corpoPations afd in- dividuals, The bill was headed for possi- ble Senate debate next week after the Senate Finance Committee yes- trday formally approved the 875- Page house-passed measure that would overhaul the .nation’s tax laws for the first time in 10 years. The Democrats on the ¢ommit- tee had talked of trying to include New ifcome tax reduction provi- sions, but they apparently made Mo move to do so. However, George —- the commit- tee’s senior Democrat — said in an interview Democratic strat- egists have settled on two alter- mate proposals for full Senate con- sideration: 1. To reduce personal income taxes $2,400,000,000 annually by a pia increase in personal exemp- 1s. 2. To give each taxpayer a $20 annual income tax credit. It was estimated this plan would mean a $1,250,000,000 annual tax cut. Chairman Millikin (R. Colo.) said the Finance Committee woiild not comment on proposed amendments, but he predicted the Senate would accept the bill about as it came from his group. The Eisenhower administration has come out in outtight opposition to any new general income tax reduction, contending the govern- ment cannot stand the added rev- enue loss. However, the administration has backed revenue-losing provisions in the tax revision bill on gtounds they would correct long-standing inequities and encourage business expansion and investment. A fumber of Democrats have attacked the legislation, claiming it is weighted in favor of big busi- ness and the wealthy, but admin- istration officials have contended its benefits would be about equally distributed between business and individuals. Administration spokes- men have atgued that business ex- pansion- would lead to more jobs. Marine Troops Welcome Ike On Visit To Quantico Base BY ELTON Cc. FAY QUANTICO, Va.,um — Five thou- sand Martine troops and the na- tion’s military chiefs mustered to- day on a velvety grassed. parade round to welcome President Ei- senhower to this big base and a( session of the defense secretaries’ annual conferénce. : Pres’ a former five- star general always ready for an opportunity to get back to the familiar military surtoundings, ar- ranged to motor down from the White House this morning, fed the remainder of the day and drive back oe i re a route to Wasl tonigh The Marine Corps turtied out-for the ferent ceremony its er smartly tra rade before the commaaieds ief — tanned and ttimly tailored men with the sharp alertness of ex- pefienced fighters. Remembering an embarassing moment last year, Marine Corps commanders and the defense of- ficials took special pains in setting up a time table. _ A year ago whien the President visited annual conference there were last minute charges in his schedule — and his car sped into the Marine base and drew up be- fore the quarters of Lt. Gen, Clif- ton B. Cates, commandant of the Marine Corps. schools, where, alas, there was no one home except a doorman. The welcoming commit- tee meanwhile was racing franti- cally back from the base entrance three miles away where the Pres- ident’s car had whisked by min- utes before. Defense Secretary Wilson was offigial host at-a luncheon to which it was expected the President would address some informal re- matks. Late in the afternoon -— after time for golf — the President was invited to an outdoor bar- beque. Morning business sessions before the President arrived were con- cerned with discussions of progress and problems in researen and weapon technology and included also a schedule discussion by Actress, Mate Await Word . On Divorce Judge Indicates He Won’t Rush Into Decision By JAMES BACON . BURBANK, Calif. (®—With all courtroom firewotks exploded, Su- san Hayward and Jess Barker both waited today for a decision which will tell them whether they are divorced or not. ¢ Superior Judge Herbert V. Walk- er gave counsel 40 dayé to file and answer -briefs in the turbulent di- vorce case. He indicated he would fot rush into any decision. Referring to thé couple’s 9-year- old twin sons, the jurist declared: “The two people who aren’t here are the most vitally affected. Their welfare must be considered before a decision is made.” “ley Woman” S.S. Hahn, attorney for the handsome actor, urged that the di- vorce be denied, calling the shape- ly movie queen “an icy woman, an absentee “mother.” Miss Hayward was fot in court to hear this. She left after the noon recess to fly back to St. George, Utah, where she and John Wayne are co-starring in a movie on loca- tion there. Martin Gang, attorney for Miss Hayward, argued that the divorce should be granted on grounds of the now-famous swimming pool in- cident and the fact that Barker has worked little as an actor while his wife prospered as one of the in- dustry’s biggest stars, Cruelty Questioned Hahn countered that Barker’s dunking of Miss Hayward in the Pool did not constitute physical cruelty. “If it did,” argued the Jorwer, “half of Beverly Hills would be divorced now.” © He added that Miss Hayward’s fame and wealth as a movie star in July 1953, “In my experience,” Hahn said, “theré would be 75 per cent fewer divorces if there were less women working, mor of them at home.” The jurist, in asking lawyers to file briefs on one point of law, made this observation: “In the court’s mind, there is always this presamption: Pro y that’s in the name of the wife is presumed to b¢ the separate prop- erty of the wife.” Mrs. Barker's assets if her own name were shown as $293,319 plus a million “dollar. movie contract. Barker's bank. actount was set at Adm. Arthur Radford, chairman | $5,000. of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on requiremnets that tense world conditions place.on the armed forces.

Truman from fill- ing 4 guest spot in the musical show “Call Me Madam” last night but the former president was re- Ported feeling better today. Attending an openifig night per- formance at Kansas City’s Star- light Theater, Truman complained of feeling weak and of a sharp pain in the side. He left the theater before the end of the first act and was driven home by Mrs. Truman. Later, Mrs. Truman said her husband had suffered a severe at- tack of indigestion. “He is feeling much better now and is sitting in his room,” she said. “Probably part of the trouble was brought on by the heat.” The weather for the performance at the outdoor theater was hot and humid, after a daytime high of 95 degrees. The former chief executive's name is mentioned often in the Irving Berlin musical based on the career of Perle Mesta, famed Washington hostess and former ambassador to Luxembourg. Truman had agreed to appear on stage near the end of the final act. Usually an actor who resembles the former president walks on stage for about 15 seconds. The scheduled appearance of thé former president was to have been @ surprise to the audienee, He had agreed to the role for the night performance only on the con- dition that no announcement of it was to be made in advance.’ | The former president was 70 years old May 8. He has seldom been ill and his health after seven years in the White House was termed surprisingly good.
