Tuesday. January It. 1969 Page 6 THE DAILY TAR HEEL Surcharge For Additional Year ohnson To Urge Tax Extension U. S. Negotiator Says 'No Talk On Winning 9 WASHINGTON UPI -President Johnson will recommend a year's extension of the 10 per cent income tax surcharge in the budget he proposes for the first full fiscal year of the Nixon administration, sources reported Mondnday. The White House announced the President will submit his budget request for fiscal year 1970, starting July 1, to Congress at midday Wednesday and deliver his final economic report Thursday. Administration sources said that Johnson would propose in the budget that the tax surcharge imposed last year as an anti-inflationary measure be retained past its automatic June 30 cut-off date. This, they said, would result in a surplus of about $3 billion for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1970. There was no immediate word from Richard Nixon, who said during the campaign that the 10 per cent tax increase should be allowed to die. But one congressional source, who asked not to be identified, said: "You can assume that there has been agreement between the outgoing and incoming administrations." Another reliable source said, however, that Nixon reserves the option to take another look at the economy in the spring to see at that time whether the extension still is necessary. Johnson is also expected to ask that congressional salaries be raised from $30,000 a year to $42,500 a year when he makes his request for a budget expected to total about $195 billion $9 billion more than the current budget. The President, beginning his final week as Chief Executive, spent Monday working on his budget request and the State of the Union Message he will deliver to a joint session of Congress at 9 p.m. Tuesday. White House Press Secretary George Christian refused to say if Johnson had received support from President-elect Richard M. Nixon which he reportedly requested on his proposal to extend the surtax. Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield said, "I hope Johnson and Nixon get together." But Senate Republican leader Everett M. Dirksen, who predicted last week the new budget would total $195 billion, refused to comment until the president-elect had stated his position extension. on the proposed Ranking Republicans on the Senate's two economic committees, however, said they favored extending the tax. The surcharge was signed into law by Johnson June 28, 1968. It went into effect for individuals April 1 1968, and for corporations on Jan. 1, 1968. From its inception to the end of the fiscal year June 30, it is expected to produce $14.5 billion S9.2 billion from individuals and $5.3 billion from corporations.

Cooper said in questioning the first prospective juror. The prospect, aerospace worker George E. Double, was excused for cause when he said Sirhan's admission of pulling the trigger would prevent him from considering the case with an open mind. Twenty-five prospective jurors, 13 men and 12 women, were ushered into the courtroom as the trial began its second week. Twelve of them were seated in the jury box to undergo questioning in the trial of the 24-year-old Arab immigrant. The slight, dark-haired defendant stared intently at the six men and six women w ho underwent original questioning, and whispered with attorney Russell Parsons. Superior Court Judge Herbert V. Walker said the jury would first determine the verdict, and then, if it found him guilty of first degree murder, would decide if he should be sentenced to death or life imprisonment. Although newsmen and the few spectators admitted undergo extensive searching each time they enter the security area around the courtroom, prospective searched, convinced none of the jurors were The defense Walker that searching the jury would cause an "oppressive atmosphere" prejudicial to his client. Cooper told the prospective jurors that it would be necessary to inquire into their political convictions and to ask which candidate they had preferred in the June California primary won by Kennedy. Cooper said it might also be necessary to go into the jurors' religious and ethnic beliefs. Walker told the jurors that once the 12 regular members and six alternates were selected and sworn in, they would be locked up nightly throughout the trial in hotel rooms. This would mean, the judge said, no direct contact with their families, except that weekend visits by their spouses would be permitted during the trial, but not during deliberations. k Jury selection got underway after Walker denied a defense motion challenging California's jury system as unconstitution al. The defense argued that some persons were automatically excused from jury duty because of their occupations. , The defense held that not all persons eligible for exclusion because of their jobs exercise that right, and that the law which permits them to be excluded was not unconstitutional. the public will realize this, and not talk about winning a war but rather of achieving these objectives." Harriman said, as he prepared to relinquish his post. He added he was optimistic about the outcome of the talks, but said time and patience are needed to reach agreement. "I believe that out of these negotiations a peaceful solution will come," he said. Harriman, who has headed the U. S. team since the talks opened in May, retires Jan. 19 to make way for Henry Cabot Lodge, Richard M. Nixon's choice for his negotiator. Six days before leaving Paris for retirement in Washington, D. C, Harriman told members of the Anglo-American Press Club, "our objectives in South Vietnam are limited, and we will be satisfied with achieving them" VIoonf light Craft Near Completion According to American officials, the limited objectives Harriman referred to were the right of self-determination for the Vietnamese people, free elections and peace for the entire country. There has been speculation that Harriman will hold a final meeting with the North Vietnamese delegation chief, Xuan Thuy, before departing, but he made no comment on this. Sunday, Harriman's deputy, Cyrus Vance, met with his Communist counterpart Col. Ha Van Lau, in an attempt to break the procedural deadlock which has held up opening of the formal talks, but no agreement was reached. Monday, Vance continued discussions with the South Vietnamese allies by meeting with Pham Dang Lam, chief Saigon negotiator, to discuss procedural proposals to be made to the North Vietnamese. STTEVIE iUCQQjEiEr Abrams Opposes Reductions , SAIGON (UPI) - Gen. Creighton W.

"I'm not going to recommend a reduction until I'm absolutely sure it's in order." The four-star general, whor succeeded Gen. William C Westmoreland last year as the top U.S. officer in Vietnam said any decision to reduce the number of American troops should be made "deliberately, analytically and with sound objectives." Sources close to President Nguyen Van Thieu said last Saturday he may recommend that as many as 60,000 U.S. troops be sent home this year. Abrams said measures were being taken to speed the time when the 535,000-man U.S. expeditionary force could be reduced. "We have stepped up our equipping of the South Vietnamese," Abrams said in referring to measures which have included the arming of all South Vietnamese troops with Ml 6 automatic rifles. "They (the South Vietnamese) have bucked up their promotion and training of officers. That's the other part of getting the Vietnamese fully capable of providing their own security." On another matter, Abrams Csaid Communist troops were now capable of launching a mew offensive in the Saigon region by moving elements of iwo divisions into South Vietnam from Cambodia. zv "The fact that he (the enemy) is preparing to do something, that is very clear."
