Johnson Hits
On Proposed
WASHINGTON, March 14 (Jf) —Senate Democratic Leader Lyn
don Johnaon of Texas locked horns with Secretary of the Treasury
Humphrey over propoeed income tax cuts today, declaring Congress
Will decide what to do without Humphrey’s help.
"It looks to me like Mr. Humphrey is trying to be the best big
business secretary Of the Treasury since Andrew Mellon,” Johnson
rapped, out at an inforihal news
conference.
He we* obviously angry with
Humphrey for calling the Demo*
erollo tax reduction plan a "pol
itical quickie gimmick.”
The Senate resumed debate on
two tax reduction proposals to
day and may reach a showdown
vote tomorrow. Senate Republi
can Leader Knowland of Califor
nia predicts the proposals will be
defeated.
Johnson said “Congress has the
responsibilty of passing the tax
bill in the form it thinks such a
bill ought to be. Zt Is not going to
pay any attention to press releases
from the public information divi
sion of the Treasury."
Last night Humphrey issued a
statement saying the Democratic
plan "works against the making
of new and better jobs." He also
contended it was misleading to
argue that it was in the interests
of the "little folks."
The Treasury chief was a Cleve
land industrialist before Joining
President Eisenhower's Cabinet.
The late Andrew Mellon, to whom
he was likened by Johnson, was a
Pittsburgh banker industrialist
who was secretary of the Treas
ury under Presidents ‘ Harding,’
Coolidge and Hoover.
"The Democratic proposal will
mean a reduction in benefits for
the dividend boys of 1% billion
dollars," Johnson Bald. 'We are
going to take that and give it to'
everybody."
