Tax Cuts Are Sure to Get Faubus' Veto
In Little Rock Arkansas the Senate backed Gov. Orval Faubus' building program while both chambers advanced tax cut measures. House approval of a 600 deduction for federal taxes paid faces a veto risk, and a retirement pay exemption seeks to shield state and federal workers contributing 2 percent for 15 years. Anticipated opposition in the House likely blocks passage, and the governor may block tax relief this year.

The House Appropriations Committee urged central control of the missile program to cut costs and end divided responsibility.

The Lowry Air Force base example showed estimates from 51,000 to 500,000 but final cost reached 4,087,072.
