thing but Sputniks. Another of those hard realities hit them this week with the announcement that promised income tax cuts had been postponed “until further notice.” These cuts, first announced in May, 1960, were to have been carried out over a five-year period until all personal income tax was to have been abolished. In July, 1961, the Communist party newspaper Pravda published a new program. It promised: “In the current decade (1961-70) the Soviet Union will surpass the strongest and richest capitalist country, the United States, in production per head of population; the people’s standard of living and their cultural and technical standards will improve substantially; everyone will live in easy circumstances; all collective and state farms will become highly productive and profitable enterprises; the demand of Soviet peo-

Aviation Agency Head Favors Hike In Government Pay

EDITOR’S NOTE: Najeeb E. Halaby heads an agency with far-reaching authority over civil aviation. Inevitably, the boon of the Federal Aviation Agency is the center -of controversy, and Halaby has stirred up bis share just as Elwood Quesada did when he headed FAA. This topic for well-appointed housing will, In the main, be satisfied; hard physical work will disappear; the U.S.S.R. will become the country with the shortest work day.” Promised Industrial Hike Within the same 10 years, the program proniised increases of 150 per cent in both industry and agriculture. To achieve the highest living standard in the world, the Soviet planners not only promised to abolish income taxes bu to lower retail prices as well. Not even a year later, in June, 1962, the government hiked meat and butter prices 25 to 30 per cent Both were in short supply and one way to cut down on the grumbling lines was to price them out of reach. Agriculture, far from staging a great leap forward, has suffered a series of reverses and the prospects for this year appear not much better than in 1961. Waste and Inefficiency Communist publications paint a picture of waste, inefficiency and negligence. A farm publication, in a cartoon captioned “Seasons of the Year,” pictured a new piece of machinery unloaded in summer, out under fall rains, buried under winter snows and picked up in the spring as scrap. Pravda complained about leaky freight cars which permitted the grain to spill through cracks in floors and sidings. Income tax represents only about 7 per cent of Soviet income. Sales taxes on consumer goods account for 40 per cent When in 1960, Khrushchev announced his tax cut, he also revealed how poorly paid most Soviet workers are. Most, he said, earned less than SIOO per month. Before this week’s postponement, taxes already had beeq abolished on incomes up to about $65 per month. The announcement blamed th? postponement on the “aggressive schemes of imperialism.” The truth of the matter seemed to be, as Khrushchev has indirectly admitted, the Soviet Union cannot afford both guns and butter.

eludes feuds with congressmen and various aviation organisations. The following interview, unusual in its frankness, reveals Halaby’s thinking on subjects ranging from air accident investigation to his troubles in trying to live on bis government salary. ’ By ROBERT J. BERLING UPI Aviation Editor WASHINGTON (UPI) — Federal Aviation Administrator Najeeb E. Halaby today revealed his formula for saving the taxpayers money — double the salaries of top government officials. “If I could double the salaries of my own key officials,” he said in an exclusive UPI interview, “I could save 10 times that amount just in improved efficiency and performance. The biggest problem in the Federal Aviation Agency and all government is attracting the right high echelon people. You can’t do it without some monetary incentive in most instances.” The head of the 44,000-man FAA sat in his spacious office, which is decorated with model planes and Indian relics (his hobby), and candidly discussed his first 19 months in office. He described life in Washington as “a kind of battle where you have to keep the initiative so your enemies are always firing on your stern and not your bow.” Halaby, an intense, dynamic man who looks and talks like movie star Gregory Peck, tends to pace while talking to visitors. He is persuasive, personable, informal and disarmingly frank. His vocabulary is both erudite and salty. He is known as “Jeeb” throughout the agency. « Halaby listed these as his proudest achievements in FAA: —Establishment of a strong management team by “deploying talent more effectively (a polite way of saying he cleaned house) and recruiting about 15 unusually competent and experienced top people.” —lnstalling more confidence and respect in the giant agency along with less resentment toward its dictator-like authority. —Major reforms in FAA’s research projects which he thinks in the past “wandered around with little sense of direction.” —lmproved cooperation with FAA’s sister air agency, the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB), particularly in enforcement and accident investigation. Conversely, Halaby admits his biggest disappointment — and in a sense, temporary failure — is continued weaknesses in the nation’s air traffic control system. Here is Halaby’s comment on some of his own and aviation’s problems: Air Traffic Control: “Neglect of the airways in the past has produced a kind of improvised system dependent on a large number of persons working in a small space under very little systemization. Air traffic controller morale is a problem. Some controllers feel we’re too strict on discipline when they make mistakes. But you don’t inspire anyone by molly coddling or pampering. You inspire them by leadership, and that includes giving them the right tools to do their job. I’d like to see controllers with the esprit de corps of the FBI or the Marines. As for discipline, you don’t wait for an accident to take corrective action. You take it after an incident that could have caused an accident.” Relations With Congress: “I’ve never been deliberately arrogant or insulting to a congressman. Sometimes you inadvertently say something that gets you into hot water because you don’t know what motivates a congressional complaint or suggestion. In one case, where I was getting blasted for closing down an FAA facility in a city, I didn’t know the mayor was from one faction, the congressman involved was from another, and that each was trying to outdo the other in retaining the facility. I guess there’s some merit in the criticism that I’ve spoken too hastily at times—like when I called one congressman ‘a freshman who is acting like a freshman.’ But I regard Congress as my board of directors and I have no complaints about the cooperation FAA gets from Capitol HUI.’ His Predecessor, Elwood R. Quesada: “Since becoming administer, I’ve acquired a lot of sympathfator what Quesada went through. F didn’t realize until I

took the job how constant the pressure would be and what a variety of forms it assumes.” Accident Investigation: “I know there has been something of an FAA-CAB feud on this subject but I think we’ve finally achieved a very candid, close cooperation with CAB. At first all we had going was my friendship with CAB Chairman (Alan S.) Boyd. Now it is far more than an ‘Alan-Jeeb’ relationship. The FAA does not want to take over accident investigation. But it does want to be part of an efficient team in helping CAB solve accidents. I’ve been accused of shooting off my mouth about some accidents, but frankly I don’t think we should hide anything factual we uncover in the course of a crash investigation. By telling what we know, we allay fears and cut down wild rumors. I regard this as a sound public policy which I’ll continue to observe.” Aviation Feuds: ‘‘There is less feuding among the various segments of aviation than there used to be, but it isn’t possible to eliminate feuds entirely. I believe there has been a general improvement in the approach of those segments to aviation problems and less concentration on the things that divide them. Personal Life: “What personal life? I love golf and tennis and hunting but I don’t find time for them anymore. We’re living off our savings right now because my salary ($22,500 annually) isn’t enough to provide me with the standard of living my family has enjoyed in the past. I’m not complaining. I’m just stating a federal fact of life. It cost me $5,000 to move here from California. I had to sell some stock to pay tuition for my children’s schooling. We live in a three-bedroom house and we need four bedrooms because I have two daughters feuding over whether each should have a room of her own. I work a six and sometimes a seven-day week, from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. and I’ve traveled nearly 150,000

miles in the last 19 months.” Those quotes should give some idea of Halaby the man and his philosophy of public service. Halaby’s relations with the press have been better than average for a top-ranking official in the Kennedy administration. Occasionally, he meets with a small group of aviation writers as their guest for luncheon. Here he lets his hair down and discusses informally’ (and off the record) his views on current aviation problems. It is typical that t these lems. It is typical that at these sessions he usually asks more questions of the reporters than they ask of him. Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee Discolored China To whiten discolored chinaware
