Income Tax Unlikely LANSING (UPI) — Thejgfai- budget wtest, said yesterday bility of any push for an income ** aenevee the state would tax at the next session of the state legislature grew even more remote yesterday with word from fiscal experts that Michigan would have a surplus of about $136 million at the end of Hie fiscal year. Some lawmakers, trying to heed words from Gov. George Romney that the state faced financial problems unless it passed new taxes, tried to get tax reform measures passed during the fall session of the legislature but failed. Most legislators believed the state’s $136 million surplus would hold up under the pressure of increased public money demands. Elliot G. Ballard, Haase Ways and Means Committee maintain Its surplus by the end of the fiscal year, June 31. “I wouldn’t be greatly surprised if it wasn’t diminished one whit by June 30, assuming a strong economy and a more or less standard budget,” he said. * ★ * Several organizations, including both political parties still are clamoring for the legislature to adopt some means of fiscal reform. UNCONCERNED However, such action continues to be the least of the lawmakers concerns as they head into an election year reluctant to change any money policies which might mean more taxes. The state passed a record budget lor the year, and ex-re it will take $SS3 million during the next fiscal year to maintain the same programs. Increased expenditures for mental health and education and other programs are expected to eat heavily into the surplus. But state lawmakers, particularly Democrats, mindful of increased costs, believe the state’s economy will continue to flourish and are not interested in raising the unpopular question of additional taxes. Pay raises for state employes and the cost of providing tax relief for elderly home owners also are among the areas which will take more state money during the next fiscal year.

Meanwhile, the United States extended the moratorium on its air war against North Viet Nam for a fourth day- A broadcast of the Communist Liberation Front radio said the Viet Cong would “stop attacking the puppet armed forces and government” from 12:61 a.m. Jan. 26 to midnight Jan. 23. The four-day festival, known as Tet, is celebrated as a national holiday in Viet Nam. The broadcast did not mention U.S. and other foreign forces fighting alongside the South Vietnamese. MILITARY ACTIONS But conceivably it could apply to them since their military actions are coordinated with those of the Vietnamese even when they are not joint operations. In Washington there was an evident inclination to treat the maneuver as something to be dealt with by the military command on the spot. U.S. officials had taken that line throughout in connection with the brief and often-broken Christmas ceasefire.

Laitin reported, too, that they discussed medical assistance and land reform in Viet Nam. ★ ★ ★ Asked if the White House had any reaction to the Viet Cong announcement of a four-day cease-fire coinciding with next month’s lunar New Year celebration, Laitin said he understood this announcement was directed at the South Vietnamese government which was studying it. He said the United States is not involved. Federal spending this fiscal year under the Johnson administration is expected to reach an all-time high of between $105-billkm and $107 billion.

Lynd, accompanied by two other Americans, is on an unauthorised mission that could result in stiff federal penalties. The trip is sponsored by the magazine Viet Report “in an effort to clarify the position of thd National Liberation Front, (Viet Cong) and the Democratic Republic of (North) Viet Nam," said John McDermott, associate editor of the magazine. McDermott said the magazine is not paying any money for the trip, and in fact “pays for very few articles." He said Lynd carries papers identifying him as the magazine’s correspondent in Viet Nam. McDermott'said an afternoon news conference would be held today to elaborate on the trip and its purposes. The other two men on the trip are Thomas Hayden of Royal Oak, Midi., a founder of the Students for a Democratic Society, and Herbert Aptheker, a reputed Communist theoretician. Hayden, 1961 graduate of the University of Michigan, was editor in 1960-61 of the Michigan Daily, student newspaper at the school. Lynd’s wife, reached at her home in New Haven, Conn. Monday night, said: “He is going because of Jiis concern for peace." (Continued From Page One) off air reconnaissance of the Communist north. North Viet Nam charged yesterday that U.S. reconnaissance planes and warships intruded into its air space and territorial waters on Christmas Day despite the allied truce, w w . The spokesman said early tonight that Washington had not yet given the ,order to resume strikes against the north. REFUSED COMMENT He refused to comment further on the longest interruption in the air attacks since a five-day suspension in May. The last air attack on the north was at S:4S p.m. Christmas Eve, IS minutes before the American 36-hour ceasefire for Christmas. Although American planes stayed out of the northern skies. U.S. and South Vietnamese pilots flew 286 combat sorties against the Viet Cong in the south in the past 24 hours, spokesmen said.; They dropped 299 tons of bombs and claimed to have destroyed 44 Viet Cong buildings, damaged 272 more, and sunk IS sampans, They also, said they brae up numerous Communist bakers, tunnels and caves. KEY ROLE Fighter-bombers played a key role in repulsing two predawn attacks by 500 guerrillas on the mountain militia post of Bu Prang, 30 miles northwest of Gia Nghia and 110 miles northeast of Saigon. A flare ship lighted the sector, and the ahr support roared in while an outnumbered Vietnamese regional force company held off the attackers. Fifty Viet Cong were reported killed. Government casualties were described as light. from Saigon. II KILLED As the flying horsemen hunted in multibattalion strength for Viet Cong concentrations, they killed 15 guerrillas and captured 5, spokesmen said. The three left Now York Dec. 19 and flew to Brussels, Prague, Moscow, Pricing and then to North Viet Nam by way of Cambodia, said McDermott. He said the magazine had not yet heard from Lynd, “but we expect to hear from him shortly." He did not explain how this would be done. FOR ‘CLARIFICATION’ McDermott said the magazine sponsoring the mission because “reports that appear in the American press purportedly describing or attributing positions to the National Liberation Front and the DRV conflict with their reports of their position. The purpose of the trip is to clear this up." Lynd; "96, an assistant professor of history at Yale University, has a long identification with pacifist activities. He is regarded as a. leading spokesman for the “new left" — the ad hoc committees, student groups, and the lonely rebels and revolutionaries. ★ ★ ’ * The mission represents the bringing together of a number Qul Nhon, 260 miles up the coastjof critics of U.S. policy in Viet Nam. Lynd 4-Day Truce Offered The U.S. 1st Cavalry, airmobile, began a search and destroy operation IS miles northwest of A WINTRY CHORE - Few motorists in Victoria, B.C., have ever had to manhandle snowbound cars. However, the situation changed this week when a record nine-inch snowfall hit the Canadian city and snarled traffic. South Korea’s Capital Division, operating in the same area, killed 36 Viet Cong and found II tons of rice yesterday, spokesmen added. A U.S. Air Force spokesman said he was unable to say whether the suspension in the attacks by the eight-engine Superfortresses was linked with the air lull in the north. The bombers last flew in from Guam Friday morning. ★ ★ ★ The big jets had been dropping their 750-pound bombs almost daily on jungle targets, some only a few miles from Saigon, since June 17. The fighter-bomber raids on North Viet Nam began Feb. 7. ★ ★ dr Officials here and in the United States deliberately avoided anyrjfflMussida of thd aifwar moratorium, which was generally interpreted as a new effort to draw North Vietnamese President Ho Chi Mlnh’s regime to the conference table and to show the world the United States is ready to talk peace even if the Communists are not. The Viet Ceng apparently expected an easy time when they attacked Bu Prang because of recent unrest among the Montagnard tribesmen in the area. The mountain people art grumbling about Saigon’s rule and want autonomy although they are anti-Communist. Democratic Society has been an organizing force in the antiwar demonstrations. The three men could face a 95,000 fine, five years in prison, or both for visiting North Viet Nam without permission from the State Department. Hayden, 26, is an organizer for the New Community Union project in Newark, N.J., which seeks to organize the poor on issues such as housing, unemployment and welfare. WWW Aptheker, director of the American Institute for Marxist Studies in New York, is a historian and author of two books, “A Documentary History of the Negro People in the U. S.” and 'American Negro Slave Revolts." In 1953 the State Department ordered his works removed from U.S. overseas libraries. Mrs. Lynd said her husband had discussed the trip with several persons in the Yale community before leaving, including Louis Poliak, dean of the Yaie Law School. The school was not told formally of his leaving. The Weather Full U.S. Weather Bureau Report PONTIAC AND VICINITY — Partly cloudy and cold today, highs a to 29.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal agencies have been urged to take the initiative in enforcing Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act — the provision that forbids racial discrimination in federally assisted programs and permits the government to cut off funds where discrimination exists. Atty. Gen. Nicholas Katzen-bach told 21 agencies that the government should seek out illegal discrimination and try to end it rather than wait for complaints before acting. * * * In the first formal guidelines on the application of Title VI, Katzenbach said “Title VI must and will be enforced. We cannot rely solely — or even primarily — on the filing of complaints by those who are the subject of .Title VI violations.

Milk Producers Association to Mark 50th Anniversary Michigan Milk Producers Association will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 1966. The general theme of the year-long observance will be "Strength Through Unity." Members in 94 locals of MMPA will honor longtime members. The 12 districts in Michigan will also observe the golden anniversary with appropriate activities. Statewide honors will be conferred at the 1966 annual meeting scheduled for March 32 at Michigan State University in East Lansing. Site, of the meeting is especially appropriate since it was at MSU (then Michigan Agricultural College) that a group of farmers from the Howell area who were producing milk for the Detroit market got together to form MMPA In 1911. Of the original group, two men remain. They art Jay Tooley, of Howell, and James G. Hays, of .East Lansing. Honors for the two ire planned for the 1966 annual meeting. * While MMPA’s half • century of service to Michigan dairy farmers will receive major attention during 1966, the future will not be neglected. REAL TURNING POINT "It seems as if we're always on some sort of threshhold, but I believe that 1965 has marked a real turning point in the business of dairy farming and milk further proof that realistic bargaining by a recognized, responsible cooperative is the mainstay of dairy farmer welfare. “While bargaining for price and guaranteeing a market for member milk is and always will he our most important ac- ★ ★ ★ Earnings in 1965 Highest on Record Michigan Milk Producers As-ociation (MMPA) members will receive more money for milk sold in 1965 than in any previous year, according to the organization’s annual year-end report. Members will be paid a total of $137 million for 3,006,630,000 pounds of milk this year, compared to 1126 million received for 18 million more pounds sold in 1964. ★ ★ * Premiums negotiated by MMPA over and above Michigan Federal Order prices will total about $19 million in 1965, according to the report. "These premiums could not have been obtained without the bargaining strength which tivity, the many other services performed by MMPA have again demonstrated the advantages of belonging to the association," Barnes said. An example, he said, is the more than $85,000 in direct payments to farmers hit by destructive fire or windstorm during 1965. MMPA disaster protection enables farmers hit by misfortune to return to milk production without crippling loss of income. The most dramatic example of this came after the Palm Sunday tornadoes which hit many MMPA farmers hard. $45,006 PAID Another $45,000 was paid out by MMPA to members under the association’s "guarantee of payment." MMPA also provides a wide variety of testing, quality control and informational services member farmers. The importance of these advantages will surely grow in 1966, Barnes said. ★ * * “We know that changes in milk marketing and changes in.
