Surtax Approval
Budget Bill Furnishes Temporary
Financing for Government Agencies
CONVENTION VOTE:
Wilson Receives Labor Party
Support for Economic Poliey
WASHINGTON (P)-A fiscally
worried House refused yesterday
to order President Johnson to cut
R the budget, but indirectly told
him that if he doesn't it won't
consider his tax boost request.
The dual action came on the
House floor and in its tax-writing
Ways and Means Committee.
The House sent to the Senate
by voice vote a bill to provide
temporary financing, until Oct.
10, for more than a score of fed-
eral agencies which technically
went broke last Saturday mid-
Senate Votes
To Restore
Space Fund's
WASHINGTON (Pl)-Rejecting
some of the deep slashes the
House had voted, the Senate Ap-
propriations Committee voted yes-
terday to add $95.5 million to the
House-passed space money bill.
It recommended a $4,678,900,-
000 appropriation for the space
program for the fiscal year which
began July 1.
Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D-
Wash.), floor manager for the
bill, noted that the total still is
$421 million below the initial bud-
get request and $289 million be-
low the amount voted for the Na-
tional Aeronautics and Space Ad-
ministration last year.
President Johnson previously
had said he would accept the re-
ductions of $516 million voted by
the House.
Magnuson said the committee
increases would permit contin-
uance of work on numerous pro-
jects to be carried out after the
manned lunar landings in the
Apollo project.
Johnson initially asked $5.1 bil-
lion to carry on the space pro-
gram this year but Congress in
an authorization bill cut this by
$234 million. The House then
slashed out another $282 million
when it passed the separate money
bill but the Senate panel restored
$95.5 million of this.
night. Their money for the fiscal
year that started July 1 is tied
up in pending appropriation bills.
But first the House turned
back. 213 to 205, a Republican
drive to add to the financing
measure a mandate to the Presi-
dent tocut at least $5 billion
from the current fiscal year
budget. This was a reversal of
last Thursday's 202-182 vote that
recommitted another temporary
financing bill because it didn't in-
clude a spending-cut angle.
While the House was engaged
in debate over whether the Presi-
dent or Congress should take the
lead in cutting spending, the
Ways and Means Committee, by
a 20-5 vote, laid aside considera-
tion of the President's tax in-
crease proposal "until such time
as the President and the Congress
reach an understanding" on
budget cutting.
Such an "understanding" may
be reached before the end of this
month, for the Senate is expect-
ed to extend the life of thel
House-passed temporary financ-
ing bill to Oct. 31 or longer.
That would give the House Ap-
propriations Committee m o r e
time to work on the promise of
its chairman, Rep. George H.
Mahon (D-Tex.), to review past
and current appropriations with
the hope of cutting back moneyE
available to the President forl
spending. E
The administration has claim-t
ed it can't cut spending until allE
the appropriation bills become
law and the President knows how
much money will be available.
Only four of 14 regular money
measures have become law.
"The tax bill is dead; we killed
it today," Rep. Melvin R. Laird E
of Wisconsin told a reporter.
Laird, chairman of the GOP Con-
ference, was a leader in the los-
ing fight to tie the mandatoryC
budget-cutting rider to the emer-t
gency money bill.
But Rep. Al Ullman (D-Ore.) 1
of the Ways and Means Commit-r
tee said the odds are that a taxi
bill will be passed. And Chairman
Wilbur D. Mills (D-Ark.) said,I
"The atmosphere is such that a X
tax bill would not be approved
by the committee or passed bya
the House."

WASHINGTON (,)-Sens. Ever-
ett M. Dirksen (R-Ill) and J. W.
Fulbright (D-Ark) clashed heat-
edly yesterday over whether . a
Communist takeover of Asia hing-
es on the outcome of the Vietnam
war.
Dirksen, the Republican leader
and defender of President John-
son's Asian policies, and Ful-
bright, chairman of the Foreign
Relations Committee and a critic
of the President's policies, climax-
ed a day of explosive debate over
Vietnam.
'Shadow of Communism'
In a dramatic arm-waving
speech, Dirksen told the Senate
that the defense of South Vietnam
is essential to the security of the
United States. If Vietnam falls,
he said, the shadow of Commun-
isi will darken all Asia.
"Then the whole Pacific coast-
.ie of the United States is ex-
posed," he said.
Rising directly across the center
aisle, Fulbright replied softly "I
don't agree at all."
'Not Only Vietnam'
He argued that the security of
this country lies at home and
elsewhere in the world; not in
Vietnam. He said continuing the
war will weaken the United States
at home and lessen its ability to
defend its own security.
Sen. Stuart Symington (D-Mo)
sparked the debate with a propos-
al for a U.S. cease-fire to test
Hanoi's peace intentions.
Sen. Thomas H. Kuchel of Cal-
ifornia, Dirksen's GOP leadership
assistant, quickly opposed any
A.merican "stand-down that would
permit the North Vietnamese uni-
laterally to improve their position"
while the United States grounded
its planes and silenced its guns.
'Flank Will Be Turned'
Dirksen said the CommunistsI
mean to liquidate the freedom ofh
South Vietnam. If they do, he
said, "our flank will be turned."
Fulbright challenged Dirksen's
assertion that the loss of South
Vietnam would force' the United
States to bring its western de-
fense line to a point "between
Alaska and Hawaii and that San
Francisco and Los Angeles."
Did Dirksen advocate a perma-
nent American presence in Asia?
Fulbright asked. He had said
nothing about that. Dirksen re-
plied. He said a stable Saigon
government could take care of
its own military needs.
No Jump-Off Point
Fulbright argued it is not real-
istic to assume that Soviet Russia
needs South Vietnam as a jump-
ing-off point if it plans attacks
in the Pacific area. He said Com-
munist China has shown no dis-
position to fight the United States.
The Dirksen-Fulbright debate
grew sharp.
"You've been quarrelling for the
last year with the conduct of the
war," Dirksen shouted at Ful-
bright. "Tell us what you want
to do-quit nowsand get out?"
Fulbright replied that his rec-
ommendation was to reconvene
the Geneva conference, with Great
Britain and Russia as co-sponsors,
to propose a course of action.
When Dirksen said that self-de-

side of the events in Detroit last July
PITTSBURGH (A)-The eight-
state steel haulers strike marred
by stonings, shootings and beat-
ings threatened to spread yester-
day, when strike leaders vowed to
stop everything on the highways
"except wheelbarrows and bi-
cycles."
Calling Friday's proposed peace
plan with the Teamsters Union
a "standard line of doubletalk-
ing, lies and contradictions," the
steel haulers said it was voted
down almost to a man.
The rejection brought renewed
violence in Pennsylvania and
Ohio. A trucker was shot near
Fremont, Ohio, and another was
beaten unconscious in Canfield,
Ohio.
Trucking companies that had
reopened hopefully with the
weekend news of a truce began
closing down again yesterday.
"We don't make enough money
to risk somebody's life out there,"
said a man at Pittsburgh Haul-
age. "I had one man come in
with a gun and say, 'Which one
do you want me to take?' I didn't
let him go anywhere, but I know
guys who are.'
'Weapons on Seat'
Another trucker said, "I don't
want to -mention names but we
had three men leave here yester-
day and they had large, danger-
ous weapons on the seat."
In the steel centers of Ohio and
Pennsylvania, the violence has re-
sembled guerrilla warfare. Snip-
ers fire from ambush along dark-
ened turnpike overpasses. They
drop rocks through windshields.
Others slash tires and cut air
hoses.
Big steel producers, with no
way to truck steel as the 10,000 to
20,000 drivers stayed off the road,
have been forced to cut produc-
tion and lay off some workers.
Despite turning to the railroads,
Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp., the
No. 5 producer, estimates Septem-
ber shipments were down 30 per
cent.
Monday night's violence was
the worst since the wildcat strike
started seven weeks ago in Gary,
Ind., and spread east. Traffic was
snarled for hours as gangs of
angry men blocked trucks near
Erie, Pa., and Canfield, Ohio.
A 14-acre parking lot near Can-
field was filled with 300 trucks.
Pennsylvania state p o 11 c e,
forced to double night patrols,
spent hours untangling 70 to 80
big rigs snarled by gangs of angry
men near Erie. More than a dozen
windshields were shattered by
rocks and pellet guns on a 100-
mile stretch of the turnpike be-
tween Pittsburgh and Everett.
'Never Go Back'
"Most men feel we will never.,
ever go back under terms of our
old contract," signed last spring,
said William Kusley, 39, of Gary,
Ind., organizer of the dissident
group.
"Our next move is to go out
after everything that moves on
the highways," Kusley told a news
conference in Pittsburgh.
No talks were scheduled.
The dissident truckers want a
6 per cent increase to 79 per cent
of the gross revenue they now re-
ceive for hauling steel. They also
want paid for time spent at mills
to load and unload as well as a
separate Teamsters contract.
