BOONE, N. C. ? 217 MAIN ST.
Mr of Franca. A (proud, highly
patriotic Frenchman, De Gaulle
has always been silwiuly dif
cult in negotiations with Ameri- 1
Evan President
i with tha Geaaral
of
World War II ? once having to cut
off supplies to tha French, after
they refused to obey the Supreme
in# their leaden to come e
forcefully for tax cut*, now that
President Eisenhower ha* an
nounced hi* opposition to big cut*
at this time. Democrat* hare loot
been inclined in thi* direction, but
their leadership in the Home and
Senate ha* cooperated with the
Admin titration in not making the
tax Aue a political football? ?p
to now.
Some Democrat* are angered
because they (ay fellow Texan
Bob Anderton, Secretary of tha
Tre**ury, ha* been getting too
much cooperation from hi* Texa*
colleague* (of the other party)
on Capitol Hill, Sam Ray burn and
Lyndon Johnson.
They see a great opportunity
now ? to oppose the Administra
tion'* tax policy and make a clear
cut t**ue for the November elec
tion*. It i* going to be difficult to
restrain them.
Thus chances are good that the
political truce which has been in
force between the parties on the
tax question will be shattered soon
? if indeed it is not already shat
tered by the time you read this.
Republican Congressmen and
Senators are on the spot because
their own Administration is op
posing a major tax cut, and to
support one, they will h#ve to
buck their own party leadership.
It may cost the 0. 0. P. votes, un
less business Is picking up by
November and the average voter
realises that tax cuts now will
mean a huge deficit, and higher
taxes, at some later date.
