The $2.2 billion Social Security rise and $500 million postal hike offset most of the 3.1 billion in individual and corporate savings. 33 states consider tax increases totaling about 2.5 billion as localities push for new levies.

Foster presses Soviets to spell out test ban on-site inspection
Geneva AP chief U S disarmament negotiator William C Foster urged the Soviet Union to define on-site inspection terms for a nuclear test ban treaty at the 17 nation conference. He said two or three inspections yearly mean little without a concrete verification system and said U S demands had been pared from eight to seven inspections. Foster noted Kuznetsov’s absence and warned a threat to withdraw the offer if not accepted, signaling possible shifts toward top level bargaining on Berlin and Cuba.
