Says Congress Will Balk At Deep Cutback WASHINGTON (UPD—A ranking Democrat forecast today that Congress would balk at President Kennedy’s deep cutback in the 870 super-bomber program, one of the “savings” in his $43.8 billion defense budget. The prediction by a lawmaker who remained anonymous offered an index of congressional reluc-

tance to accept Kennedy’s defense shakeup without close scrutiny. Increases in missile and ground force strength proposed in his $2 billion request generally were applauded. Sharp opposition was voiced to Kennedy's announced abandonment of the nuclear powered aircraft program, on which $1 billion already has been spent. And political ears were quickly cocked for more information on the 73 military bases he has earmarked for closing. But the chief executive’s decision to reduce the 2,000-mile-an-hour 870 from a weapons system project to a research undertaking drew the sharpest initial reaction. Sen. John C. Stennis, D-Miss., Senate preparedness chairman, said the super-bomber program

should be “pushed to the utmost.” His view was shared by Senate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen. Rep. Edgar W. Heistand, RCalif., whose state would feel the economic impact of the 870 cutback, called it a “tragic blow to the .national security of the United States.” North American Aviation Co., which is located in California, is the 870 developer. Kennedy advised Congress that the missile buildup contemplated in his budget revision makes the 870 manned bomber program “unnecessary and economically unjustifiable ... at this time.” Mystery surrounded the announced reduction of some 73 domestic and foreign military bases. The President did not name them and there was no assurance they

would be announced soon. The President said Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara has "already taken steps” to have the 73 installations discontinued as “excess to our needs now and at any time in the future.” Moreover, he said studies are being made to find other “s urpl us” bases. Special Services By Jehovah's Witnesses Clyde D. Steele, presiding minister of the Decatur congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses has announced a special week of services beginning Thursday at 7:30 p.m. Steele said at that time Jehovah’s Witnesses in this area will meet at the local Kingdom

Hall on Monroe and Ninth streets to commemorate the memorial of Christ's death. March 30 this year corresponds with Nisan 14 of the Jewish calendar. For that reason it is celebrated once each year on the anniversary of that date. The week will be climaxed by a special Bible sermon at the Kingdom Hall, Sunday at 3 p. m., “The Sacred Bible and Our Problem of Survival.” This sermon will be given world wide and delivered locally by Paul E. Gerber, Jr. Millions of printed copies of this lecture will be distributed in 179 lands by means of personal home visits.
