Stresses need for tax hike WASHINGTON (UPI)— President Johnson re-empha-sized Wednesday what he called the urgent need for a tax increase but declined to tell congressional leaders whether he would accept a $6 billion cut in spending that has been attached to it. Senate-House negotiators settied on the economy package despite Johnson’s plea to limit the spending cut to $4 billion. “His position is very clear,” Mansfield said after a White House breakfast session by Johnson with Capitol Hill leaders. “He feels a $6 billion cut contains great dangers but he is trying to keep an open mind and face up to the fact he needs a tax bill and needs it badly, and needs it now if inflation to be checked and the dollar kept sound.”

Grads play Russian roulette with draft

WASHINGTON (UPI)— Students who enter graduate school this fall will be playing a kind of Russian roulette with the draft, officials warned today. They face a 50-50 chance of being called into the service. While the Pentagon is reducing the draft call for the rest of the year, the graduate student, who has shelled out money for tuition and books that he cannot recover, waits for the Selective Service to send his “greetings.” New draft regulations for the first time prohibit draft deferments for an estimated 226,000 potential graduate students who are outside the medical and dental professions. This includes men getting their first degrees in June. The Selective Service system recently reinforced these regulations with an order to all draft boards dated April 25 that “a full-time graduate student shall not be considered for occupational deferment because he is engaged in teaching part-time.” The Pentagon Wednesday set the July draft at only 15,000 men, lowest since April 1967, and reduced the June quota ... .j... • <_ '%■<*** T"'* j * ■' • Extension

club meets

The Better Homes Extension club held their May meeting with Mrs. Nancy Livesay. The meeting was opened by all members repeating the pledge to the American flag and the pledge to the Christian flag. Twelve members answered the roll call by “giving a rule for a happy marriage”. Our lesson for the evening was on wigs and wiglets. Mary Berry and Joyce Wells from the Towne and Country Beauty Salon gave the lesson. Everyone enjoyed trying on the many wigs and wiglets, and were very much surprised at how different they looked. After trying on the wigs everyone ended up with a new hair style. I think we should say thank you again to the girls from Towne and Country for a very enjoyable evening. Following the lesson a short business meeting was held. The club prayer was given and the meeting adjourned. Refreshments were served by Martha Jeffries. The door prize was won by Mary Ann Rowings.

Officials pointed out, however, that everything is still geared to take the college graduates first no matter how low the draft may go. Almost all of the potential graduate students are more than 21 years old. Regulations require draft boards to take the oldest eligibles first. The average age of draftees is now 20 years and 2 months. —562 Yanks greater than those they suffered in last week’s drive.

SAWISLAK WASHINGTON (UPI)—Sen. Robert F. Kennedy now has accomplished the first phase of his plan to win the Democratic presidential nomination. Now comes the hard part. Kennedy’s first goal when he entered the race was to replace Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy as the leading Democratic challenger to President Johnson. With primary victories over McCarthy in ' Indiana and Nebraska, Kennedy has pushed the Minnesota senator aside as the second man in the nomination race. But now, there is a new front-runner. The man standing in Johnson’s place is Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and Kennedy cannot effectively reach him through the primaries. Humphrey’s name did appear in Nebraska as a writein, but he did not campaign or otherwise commit his prestigage. Different Battleground Because the vice president will not be on any preconvention ballot, the KennedHumphrey battle will be fought in different areneas—the Democratic conventions in states which do not choose delegates by primary. So far, Humphrey has had the advantage in these states, winning delegation majorities in most of the states where conventions have chosen delegages recently. Kennedy can look for seme benefit if he beats McCarthy again in Oregbn May 28 and California June 4. But his biggest task is to impress on influential Democrats in some of the other big states that he is unbeatable. This is the kind of bandwagon the 1960 West Virginia primary started for John F. Kennedy. Richard M. Nixon, the Republican front-runner, still has something of the same problem he has battled since the start of the campaign. Like Kennedy, Nixon cannot get at his strongest opponent—Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller—in a primary test. However, Nixon did wallop Gov. Ronald Reagan, who was on the Nebraska ballot but did not campaign, and Rockefeller, who was an equally inactive write-in.

DEAR HELOISE: For the family cooks who are faced with the dilemma of a person on a salt-free diet to cook for, try this: Take your portion of unsalted, uncooked food and place in aluminum foil. Seal tightly. Put this packet on top of the rest of the food to be cooked. You can season the rest of the family’s food and your packet is cooked at the same time without seasoning. It is also easy to place several of the aluminum packets in a large boiler with an inch or two of water in the bottom and steam them at the same time. This always seems to delight small children. The unopened packets give them "surprise” meals. Mother did this for 18 months for my sister and it worked just wonderfully. Miriam Jenkins ♦ * * DEAR HELOISE: We live in an apartment area with no place to hide an extra key, and have to go to the main office to have someone let us in if we lose or forget our key. So to be on the safe side, I put my extra key on a small key chain and hook it over my girdle supporter before fastening it. It slips under the top of my hose and I never know it is there. What a comfortable feeling not to be . . "Locked out" * * * Now, that’s what I call using your noggin’! Thanks for “keying” us in. Heloise * * * DEAR HELOISE: I read the hint recently about how the lady kept her coppertone appliances clean with vinegar. Her hint is good, but I would like to tell you how I care for mine. My granny always told me there were good ways to do everything. So when I could not keep my coppertone appliances shining. I didn't give up. One day while waxing my car, the light flashed! I waxed my coppertone refrigerator with the same car wax. (The kind that cleans and waxes at the same time.» Great! Now all it takes to clean and shine them is a paper towel and a quick wipe and they gleam. The wax job lasts for several months, too.

a quick jerk of a nylon rope. But since we gals just don’t have enough power in one arm, I have found a new way to crank the thing without being all in before I start mowing. I drove a stake deep into the ground. Now I hook the mower on it just behind the front wheel and give a quick pull with both, hands It does not slide when I pull the starting rope. * Try it if you don’t have a self-starting mower and have to run that noisy thing around the yard.
