A Southern Democrat predicts Republicans will fail to secure House passage of an $11 billion tax cut tied to budget constraints. Kennedy aides and GOP critics doubt enough southern Democratic support, even with full GOP backing, will approve the amendment. The plan would cut $7 billion in 1954 income taxes and $11 billion in relief by 1955, with automatic cancellation if budget caps are not met. Other notes include a House subcommittee hearing on the ideological offensive and a "people-to-people" effort in the cold war dialogue.

Northeast Airlines gains ally in bid to fly to Florida

The Justice Department urged the Civil Aeronautics Board to pause its August decision reversing Northeast’s permit to operate the East Coast to Florida. Three carriers on the route were deemed unnecessary by the CAB, but the department argued the market requires at least three carriers to maintain competition and better service.
