Measure
By RUTH FEUERSTEIN
McGeorge Bundy has agreed
th deta ils 'of apossil polic
debate on Viet Nam, Prof. Arn-
old Kaufman of the philosophy
department said yesterday.
Kaufman, one of the Univer-
sity's faculty members who or-
iginated the teach-in, stated
ta t und "areed to talk
a debate" and was "quite
agreeable" about the subject
providing "the details can be
worked out."
Early next week, Bundy, who
is the President's special assist-
ant for national affairs, will
meet with some of the most
active members of the teach-in
movement to decide on the
structure of the impending
me ting. He was specifically
invited to take part in a live
television debate, and does not
seem to have any objections to
the idea according to Kaufman.
Called Away
Two weeks ago, Bundy was
supposed to confront oppo-
nentis at a national teach-in
which rook place in Washing-
ton. However, he was called
away at the last minute to go
to the Dominican Republic.
Because this mission was se-
cret and was not made public
for 24 hours, many felt he was
trying to avoid defending U.S.
policy in Viet Nam. However,
he said he regretted this un-
avoidable absence and was in-
vited to partake in a future
confrontation.

is expected to be published in
the early fall.
Recent Meeting
(Recently the committee held
a meeting at which the Wash-
ington teach-in was evaluated.
Prof. Julian Gendell of the
chemistry department empha-
sized the importance of immed-
iate action. "Action must occur
now because the more our
counitry becomes involved, the
more difficult it will become to
criticize," he said.
(At the meeting Prof. Eric
R. Wolfe of the anthropology
departngent referred to what he
called the "total participation"
of members as being one of the
most positive aspects of the
group. Since the committee
lacks a central directorate, he
said, there are no people at the
top who simply give orders and
do not act.
(As a result, the teach-in
held at the University exempli-
fied the drive and spontaneity
of those taking part in it, Wolfe
explained.)

WASHINGTON (IP)-The Senate
voted yesterday to prohibit Sar-
gent Shriver from doubling as
Director of the Peace Corps and
ofthe anti-poverty uprogram.he
Senate passed by voice vote a bill
authoriz in$115 m illon o e a l

It adopted, also by voice vote,
an amendment by Sen. Jacob K.
Javits (R-NY) providing that the
Peace Corps director "shall hold
no other federal office of equiva-
lent rank."
Surprising
In a surprising development,
Sen. J. W. Fuibright (D-Ark),
floor manager for the bill, agreed
to accept the amendment and
take it to a conference with the
House.
He said that the question of
Shriver holding the directorship
of the Peace Corps as well as the
new Office of Economic Oppor-
tunity had been raised at hearings
on the bill by the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, of which he
is chairman.

CAPE KENNEDY (A') - Gemini
4 was cleared for lift-off yester-
day for its marathon flight that
will take Major Edward H. White
on a journey as a human satellite
across the American continent.
White, protected by a pressuriz-

of his spacecraft, unaware of
movement although traveling at
17,500 miles an hour.
Officials of the Gemini Space
Program lit the green lights at
an early afternoon conference.
"Everything," Mission Director

that the store could add some of |

If the bookstore is successful,
the book publishers will be willing
to sell books on consignment.
Shure explained that the store
would then be able to obtain books
without having to pay a down-
payment, as will be done in the
fall.
The books would be paid for
after they have been sold. The

he would hand his store and all

He stressed, however, that the
immediate object of the discount
store was to sell books and sup-
plies that the students need most
now, and to sell them at as low a
price as possible.
As freshmen come to summer
orientation, they will have a
chance to leave orders for their
books, and to pick them up when
they return in the fafl. The store
will officially open on August 26,

House Cnsider Bill To

A bill pending before the House subcommittee on Public Health
and Welfare may provide extensive government funds for the Uni-
versity's Medical and Dentistry schools.
The bill, HR 3141, would authorize a five year extension of the
expiring Health Professions Educational Assistance Act.

WASHINGTON (/P)-The House
passed yesterday, 401 to 6, legis-
lation for a $4.8-billion slash In
excise taxes that could bring
prices down on a wide variety o'f
goods from autonmobiles to lip-
sticks.
If the Senate follows suit, as
is expected, this would be the sec-
ond major tax cut in as many
years. Income taxes were reduced
last year by an amount now esti-
mated at $14 billion.
The reductions provided by the
House-passed bill would not be
complete until Jan. 1, 1969, but
a major portion would go into ef-
fect in just four weeks-July 1.
Automobile Taxes
Moreover, the initial three per-
centage point cut in the auto-
mobile excise-an average of about
$75 for a passenger car-and the
repeal of the 10 per cent tax on
air conditioners would be retro-
activ, appling to all sale after
May 14..
Other repeals taking effect July
1 oud e:hos f the 1prcn
gage, toilet preparations, and the
manufacturers' taxes, most of
them at 10 per cent, on a variety
of other goods, including apphi-.
ances, cameras, business machines,
radio, phonograph and television
sets and most sporting goods.
On Dec. 31, the tax qn cabarets
and theatre, sporting events and
other admissions would go off, to
be followed on Jan. 1 by another
batch of excises, including those
on club dues, passenger automo-
bile parts and sales of stocks and
real estate. Also on Jan. 1, the 10
per cent telephone tax would be
cut to 3 per cent, the first step in
a gradual elimination to be com-
plete Jan. 1, 1969, and the auto-
mobile tax would be cut one more
percentage point in a similar
phasing.
Johnson's Recommnendations
,President Lyndon B. Johnson
recommended excise tax slashe%
but the House went beyond hbis
recommendation by voting to wipe
out the automobile tax entirely
although by stages. Johnson had
recommended a cut from 10 per
cent to 5. However, the cuts were
so spaced that the revenue effect
for the fiscal year beginning July
1 will be the same as Johnson es-
timated in his recommiendations-
$1.75 billion.
Johnson advocated the cuts on
the double ground Qf keeping the
economy rolling at its present clip
and making the tax structure more
equitable.
The automobile industry pledg-
ed to pass on the cut in lower
prices and there were indications
sellers of other high-priced items
would do likewise.
'Essential' Taxes
Houseeterd ay becomnes law,
virtually the only remaining fed-
eral taxes would be those on alco-
sidered essentially fees paid by
the beneficiaries of specific gov-
ernment services.
The House acted after less than
three hours' debate that was al-
most as one-sided as the vote,
Chairman Wilbur D. Mills (D-
Ark), of the Ways and Means
Committee, and Rep. John W.
Byrnes of Wisconsin, the senior
Republican member, both assailed
the present excise taxes as dis-
criminatory and outdated.
"Who would say today that an
appliance-a stove or refrigerator,
or even a radio or television set-
is a luxury? Mills asked.
Opposition
Byrnes emphasized his belief

Gov. George Romney indicated

While Romney did not specify
how many or which bills he may
veto, some Lansing officials spec-
ulated that the governor may
make the Democratic-sponsored
school aid bill his major target.
The school bill, a measure deal-

$2,500. .
The bill was introduced by Rep.
IOren H arris, D-Ark., chairman of
the subcommittee.
It is expected that the bill,
which is slated for subcommittee
action on June 8, will be out of
committee quickly because it is
primarily an extension of an al-
ready existing law.
Resembles Defeated Bill
James Menger, House non-
political staff member since 1952
and legislative assistant on the
Public Health and Welfare sub-
committee, said that the present
bill is very much like a bill de-
feated on the floor of the House
during the 88th Congress.

WASHINGTON (IP)-The Senate
passed overwhelmingly yesterday
a new $5.2 billion authorization
bill to continue the nation's space
programs.
Among other things, the bill
would authorize funds to attempt
to land a man on the moon and
return him in or before 1970.
Passage, by a 79-4 vote, came
after the Senate tabled, 59 to 26,
an amendment by Sen. Russell B.
Long (D-La) designed to retain
government ownership of most
patents resulting from govern-
ment-financed research.
The space authorization now
goes back to the House for con-
sideration of numerous Senate
amendments which raised its total
about $13 million. The House had
cut about $76 million below the
President's original request for
$5.26 billion.
