Asserts Tax Cut Is Mandatory In 1958 Republican Leader Says Cut Is Vital WASHINGTON (UP)-A Republican congressional leader said today taxes must be reduced next year despite additional defense spending which he said apparently will be necessary. The assertion came from Rep. Richard M. Simpson (Pa.l, a highranking minority member of the House Ways and Means Committee, which initiates all tax legisla- [ 4— — — His assertion that a tax cut is “mandatory” next year came less than 48 hours after Vice President Richard M. Nixon threw cold water on hopes for early tax relief. I Nixon said Monday that with (Russia’s satellite circling the earth | the nation must regard its military strength as a matter of far greater 'importance than the "understandpable desire” for tax relief. Simpson expressed his views in a speech prepared for the annual meeting of the Illinois State Chamber of Commerce in Chicago. A summary of his remarks was released here in advance. "We can and must cut taxes despite additional spending that will apparently be necessary in the Defense Department," Simpson said. | Any boost in defense spending can be offset by reduced spending on other federal agencies not linked with the defense effort, he said and this, would prevent any overall increase in spending. The Ways and Means CommitI tee will start tax hearings Jan. 7, he said, and he will "insist” that a major tax reduction be considered at the hearings. Committee Chairman Jere Cooper (D-Tenn.l has expressed hope the hearings will lead to some tax relief. , Simpson's remarks indicated I that even if the Eisenhower administration strongly opposes tax relief he will push for a tex cut and try to pin blame on the Democratic Congress if no relief is forthcoming.

Teverbaugh and Doggett shared the same apartment while working for the highway depart- ' ment. 2. A report on property values made when the department buys right-of-way is normally prepared by the buyer, but when the state finally bought the back yards this report was initialed by Teverbaugh and Doggett. 3. The state buyer normally notarizes signatures of the sellers, but in the back yards sales, Peak was the notary. 4. When for good reason more right-of-way is bought than actually deeded for the road itself, the department's design engineers normally are notified. Earlier witnesses testified there was no record of such changes in right-of-way plans on the Madison Ave. project. Jets Arrive RAPID CITY. S.

Radio Newsman Is / Cited For Contempt LaPorte Radio Man .. Is Cited By Judge LAPORTE W — A judge cited a radio newsman for direct contempt of court Wednesday in connection with a tape-recorded interview with an accused slayer. The defendant was granted a fifth trial because of the interview. Prosecution and defense motions for a new trial in the wake of the broadcast were upheld by Special Judge Harry Long of Gary. It means a fifth trial for Robert Lee Johnson, 34, South Bend, who has been in county jails since he, was accused of killing a South Bend cab driver in 1949. Long cited Jean LaGrange, a newsman for Radio Station WLOI of LaPorte for direct contempt of court and placed him in SI,OOO bond to appear in court next Monday. LaGrange, a member of the House in the 1955 Indiana Legislature, tape-recorded an interview with Johnson. The accused “pop bottle slayer” said he refused a “proposition" by the prosecution which would have freed-him under suspended sentence if he would plead guilty to manslaughter charges. The recording was broadcast Monday while Johnson's fourth trial was in progress. Both state and defense filed motions for a mistrial as soon as they heard of the broadcast. Two of Johnson’s trials for first degree murder in the robbery slaying of David R. Smith, 27, ended in hung juries. A third jury found Johnson guilty in 1953 and recommended the death penalty. The'verdict was thrown out because of misconduct on the part of a juror. If you have something to %ell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad— they bring results.
