as the little hoy tries to follow

s7s Million Will Be >
Available For Loans
The Veterans Administration
has announced that $75 million
will be distributed to field of
fices on July 2 for the purpose
oi making direct home loans.
Approximately $25 million will
be obtained from principal re- (
payments received from bor
rowers who have direct loans
and the balance will come from
treasury borrowings under* cur
rent authorization.
VA officials estimate that* it
will be possible in May to no
tify field offices of their respec
tive fund allotments. At that
time VA Regional Offices will
be. authorized to furnish direct
loan applications _ to veterans on
their waiting lists in advance of
the distribution on July 2. j
The VA decision to make $75
million available to field offices
in July was made after a con
tinuing review of direct loan
activity since October 1961. The
VA said that additional alloca
tions would be made during fis
cal year 1963. But that the
amount and timing would be de
termined at a later date.

had brought up his son with
I the same belief, although the
; son was a brilliant student with
a bright future. But one day
] a sad thing happened, the pro
fesspr’jS son killed himself. Os
{'course the newspaper reporters
| came to the father and wanted j
to know why such a promising
young man would take his own
i life. The poor professor was
1 forced to reply, “All my son
j could see in the future was
darkness, he had no hope, no
outlook on life.” This boy had
no God to give him strength
because his father had failed
him.
Parent, you are shaping your
child’s future. You teach them
your religion, this can’t be help
ed. If you don’t talk of God
j and His love then your child
I will ignore the subject also. If
you send your child to church
when they have children they
will do the same thing. Your
teaching will mean much more
to their young mind than the
teaching of the church ever will.
I I ask you parent—how close
1 have you led your child to God?

j Frankly Speaking!
! By FRANK ROBEKTS
First of all, just a brief sen
tence or three regarding last
week’s letter in The Herald, en
) titled “And Who Are You, Frank
Roberts.!’ At first, I intended
answering the thing in full, but
I was later to find out that no
one (myself included) was tak
ing it very seriously, so I de
cided to forget that idea. An- 1
other reason for ignoring it is
this: It’s a form-type letter,!
slightly altered for local con
, sumption. I’m told by a few
| people that' similar’ letters have
j appeared in other periodicals
from time to time. I gathered
that from some of the state
i ments printed in the latter,
which had absolutely nothing to
do with what I wrote about the
NAACP in my previous columns.
Anyway, if “A Concerned Per
son” is as concerned as she pre-

tends, I’ll issue this invitation
to her to talk to me anytime
she chooses. I’ll tell her about
my grandparents and great
grandparents, who’s suffering
will make her ancestors look
like they lived the proverbial
life of Reilly. I’ll tell her about
life on the streets of New York.
I’ll answer any and everything
she might like to know. As for
the letter itself, as I mentioned
in an opening paragraph, it’s not
worth answering publicly, as I
seriously doubt the sincerity of
anyone who sends in a form
type letter. Incidentally, that
letter was in The Herald office
for a couple of weeks. It had
originally been sent in with
out a signature. Editor Bufflap
had to put an item in his col
umn, asking the one who sent it
in to come down and sign it.
Ag for me, I’m not ashamed
of what I write, and will sign
my name to my items. ’Nuff
said.
|
Incidentally, one of the local
NAACP leaders was asked if
he’d like to participate in a ra
dio debate with me. No af
firmative answer. Also on that
subject, the pickets continue;
people are getting more and
more used to them, and it’s even
interesting to watch them picket
in front of a store that’s doing
big business at that same time
with the regular customers,
white and colored.

NO COMMENT is a report of
incidents on the national scale,
and does not n«wessarily reflect
NAM policy or position.
Washington Administration
forces are throwing all of their
vast resources into an all-out
campaign for enactment of the
Kennedy tax program.
The battle being waged is simi
lar —in extent and vigor—to the
| one last year which resulted, by
1 a close 217 to 212 House vote,
lin “packing” the House Rules
| Committee.
| Administration efforts for tax
j legislation have been intensified,
if that were possible, as a result
of the decisive rejection by Con
gress of the Kennedy proposal
to create a new Cabinet Depart
ment of Urban Affairs and Hous
ing.
That was the first big contro
versy of the 1962 congressional
session—and the Kennedy forces
were routed.
This makes them all the more
determined to win the next con
test —dver tax legislation.
In essence, the House Ways
and Means Committee bill would 1
put $1,800,000,000 into some in-i
dustry pockets in the form of a ,
tax credit of up to 8 per cent!
for investment in new machin
ery and equipment—but, at the
same time, would impose new
restrictive taxes upon industry
costing approximately $1,200,-
000,000.
Industry opposes the invest
ment credit program on % the
ground that it would be utterly
inadequate to meet the nation’s
need for investment capital for
business expansion and modern
ization.
What is needed, it is contend
ed, is enactment of the Herlong-
Baker bills which, among other
things, would lower personal
and corporation income taxes to
a maximum of 47 per cent by
a series of five annual reduc
tions.
Administration forces beat
back, by a 14-to-ll vote, an ef
fort of the Ways and Means
| Committee to substitute the
I Herlong-Baker Bill for the in
j vestment credit proposal.
But the tax legislation fight
lis far from over. The Ways
and Means bill goes to the
! House floor. After House ac
, lion, hearings are held by the
j Senate Finance Committee, head
led by Sen. Byrd (D-Va.). What
; ever bill it agrees upon goes to
the Senate floor. Whatever
I measures are passed by the

House and Senate then go to a
conference committee for adjust
ment of differences. Whatever
agreement the conference com
mittee reaches is then voted
upon by both the House and the
Senate.
Two reasons for the deter
mination by the Administration
to obtain enactment of its tax
program, if at all possible, are
given by Capitol Hill sources:
1. The investment credit,
which Treasury officials have
admitted publicly is purely and
simply a subsidy, would give
the new frontiersmen a device —
lower taxes to those who can
and will 'conform —to control and
direct the flow of American in
vestment.
2. The view that enactment of
this part of the Kennedy tax
reform program is vital to the
success of the bigger and more
far-reaching proposals to be sent
to Congress later this year for
action in 1963.
The 1962 program is described
as the corporate or business
portion. The 1963 program is

dividual portion.
General statements by Treas
ury officials indicate that the,
1963 proposals also will add up
to taking money from one pock- f
et and putting money into an
other pocket—with the end re-!
suit being higher taxes for the
middle-income group—the sav
ers and investors —thereby de
priving industry of the capital

growth.
