260 Million Tax Aid Bill Voted In House
The House backed a 260 million dollar tax relief measure focusing on liberalized depreciation for machinery and equipment. The bill targets small businesses by allowing deductions of investment from taxable income up to 10 thousand dollars annually, with a 20 thousand dollar cap for personal property, but excludes buildings and any broader rate cuts. Supporters say it spurs growth while critics warn it may not deliver enough relief. The Senate was poised to consider the proposal as debates continued.

U N Peace Plan For Withdrawing Marines Assailed
The Soviet Union attacked a Middle East compromise backed by the United States and Britain to safeguard Lebanon’s independence and permit U S Marines to withdraw. Soviet Arkac indicated possible veto while Sobolev condemned the plan as unacceptable. The veto could paralyze the Security Council and a special session may be called as Lebanon seeks more time to consult Beirut on the Japanese backed coalition plan.

Adams Criticism Defense Offered Amid Contract Dispute Scrutiny
WASHINGTON AF. Adams was criticized Monday for intervening in a government contract dispute last year and was defended by Weeks as a man of integrity. Weeks said Adams acknowledged an error in judgment in his relations with Bernard Goldfine, the magnate, and has faced harsher treatment than any public figure in recent memory. Roswell M. Austin questioned Adams’s handling of an inquiry into a case by the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals in 1957, while noting neither Adams nor a congressman influenced the board. The White House says Adams merely relayed inquiries and replies about the Raglaine Worsteds case involving Manchester New Hampshire firm. Rep. Chester E. Merrow suggested he was the congressman in question based on related correspondence from 1957 and this year urging settlement.
