Tax Arrears Not So Bad Says Dillon
Secretary of the Treasury Douglas Dillon told the Joint Senate House Economic Committee that underwithholding in 1964 was far less severe than feared. He estimated net extra payments may total 100 to 500 million dollars, instead of a billion or more, and urged quick temporary tax relief if a recession threat arises. He noted many taxpayers will owe more than expected while some paid more withholding than necessary.

Military Junta Reorders Viet Nam Command As War Talks Pivot

U.S. policy signals a possible renewed North Vietnam air offensive, with officials hoping to strike more directly at North Vietnamese support to the Viet Cong. The moves risk delaying progress in the South as fresh leadership adjusts to new duties.
