Judge Seys Son of If Duce Not Security Threat
Judge Cesar Romero Tharya of the Federal Court ruled that Vitgorio Mussolini’s illegal entry into Argentina on March 29 did not constitute a crime against state security.

Financial Group Pushes For Vote On Fax Cut Bill
A U S Senate Finance Committee proposal aims to tax relief totaling 4.0 billion dollars. Chairman Millikin (R-Ga) says an amendment to shift to July 2 would make the plan effective sooner. About 1,200 of 43 million taxpayers would receive 20 to 30 percent reductions, with higher earners facing smaller cuts. Millikin cautions a broader 20 percent bracket could be narrowed to 15 percent for incomes between 200,000 and 202,000, and notes a separate plan to allow income splitting remains unlikely. The current privilege exists in 25 states with community property laws.

In Paris, Premier Ranafer named three Socialists and two MRP members to vacant cabinet posts, naming Eugene Thomas Dame Mayor and Paul Bachard to foreign labor and state roles, with MRP picks Robert Prigent and Jean Thurneau assigned health and reconstruction duties.
