British Open Tough Policy For Cypriots Parley Deadlocked Over Mediterranean Island Os Cyprus LONDON (INS) — Britain launched a new "get tough with the terrorists” policy in Cyprus today. At the same time, foreign secretary Harold MacMillan sought to break a deadlock in the London conference over the eastern Mediterranean island. MacMillan’s chances were considered poor despite Britain's offer to lead the colony to self government within the British Commonwealth. The talks with the foreign ministers of Greece and Turk.ey, now in their second week, were expected to end without agreement by Thursday or Friday. Prospects for accord were dimmed further by anti-Greek riots in Istanbul and Izmir and the bombing of the Turkish consulate in Salonika. Greece. ■ The harsher attitude towards violence by Cypriots seeking union with Greece was linked with the virtual failure of the London parley. Widespread anti-British terrorism on the island off the south coast of Turkey was forecast unless the current deadlock was broken. As if to underline the threat a dispatch from Kyrenia, Cyprus to day said a gunman in an automobile fired two shots at the royal air force sentry guarding the home of air marshal Sir Claude Pelly, commander of the Middle East air force. The shots missed and the gunman escaped. To prevent further bombings and shootings on the island. Britain ordered three landing ships to sail from Malta with reinforcements.

Predicts Cut In Taxes By Next Congress Political Parties To Vie On Tax Cut In Election Year WASHINGTON (INS)—A Southern Democratic leader predicted today that congress will cut taxes next year. Rep. Howard Smith (D-Va.) chairman of the house rules committee, said that both Democrats and Republicans will try to outdo each other in sponsoring tax cut legislation. The influential congressman declared in an interview: "It's just a question of which side will recommend the biggest reduction. In a presidential election year, don’t look for statesmanship." A tax bill will have to clear smith's committee before the house can vote on it. The Virginian has been a staunch advocate of a balanced budget for many years, and he indicates he disapproves any tax reduction before this goal is achieved. Smith said he approved a statement issued over the weekend by Rep. Daniel A. Reed (R-N.Y.) deploring talk of a tax cut when congress reconvenes in January. Reed said it is premature to plan now for a tax reduction. The New York congressman is the top ranking Republican member of the tax writing house ways and means committee. He said government expenditures must be cut and the budget balanced before revenue can be slashed. Reed added that there is little likelihood of any sharp reduction in government spending until the military budget can be cut. But Smith indicated he felt the
