Taft rejects Eisenhower tax cut plan as misquoted
Senator Taft challenged the claim that federal taxes could be cut 40 billion dollars in two to three years. He argued expenditures this year at about 72 billion, with 5 billion next year, and saw little chance to reduce spending below 55 billion within the near term. He proposed reducing to 60 billion then 55 billion dollars, citing arms and foreign aid at 35 billion and domestic services at 20 billion. Delegates had been told Eisenhower favored a 40 billion dollar tax cut.

Foley Ruling Hobbles Titus Prosecution In Bank Case
Judge Foley limited the government’s bank case against Paul Titus, an Auburn appliance dealer, by ruling a witness conversation with a bookkeeper may be hearsay. Titus is charged with conspiracy and misapplication of 3474,000 of Syracuse Trust funds. Prosecution may need to subpoena the bookkeeper Bernard Klock, who pleaded guilty, to testify. The ruling leaves the government facing hurdles in tying Klock’s guilt to Titus, with deposition from Klock already in hand.
