WASHINGTON t/P) Sen. Paul
II. Douglas, 1 D-Ill.i, says the Sen
ale Finance Committee on which
he serves is making “almost a
shambles” of President Kennedy’s
tax revision bill.
Douglas denounced the com
mittee's actions after it adopted
its latest round of amendments to
the controversial measure.
The former economics professor
told the Senate the bill was de
signed by Kennedy to be a reform
measure to close tax loopholes and
increase Treasury revenues.
Kennedy must be sorely disap
pointed with the bill now, Douglas
said. The Finance Committee has
converted it into a revenue loser,
he said, “and there is very little
tax reform left in it.”
Douglas termed “unconscionable”
committee amendments deleting di
vidend and interest withholding,
weakening proposals to tighten up
checks on expense account abuses,
and “gutting” a provision to tax
profits for foreign subsidaries of
U.S. firms even though their earn
ings stay abroad.

On Military Junta
Seizure of Power
By James Marlow
WASHINGTON OP — The United
States Ls over a barrel.
It reacted strongly against mili- ,
tary seizure of power in Peru last
week. This probably won’t last ,
long. It had similar reactions in \
other places and wound up doing j
business.
It didn’t like the military coup !
which threw out the president of j
Korea in 19(11. Before year’s end j
President Kennedy and junta boss j
Gen. Chung Hee Park were re- j
affirming the two countries’ i
“strong bonds of friendship.”
When the military in Argentina |
last March disliked the election
results and threw out the presi- :
dent, this country hesitated about !
giving recognition. It waited three j
weeks and gave the recognition.
In other countries in Latin Amcr- i
ica — Paraguay, Haiti, Nicaragua, j
Guatemala — it has given recog- '
nition to dictatorship govern
ments of one kind or another.
And, among other countries, it
has diplomatic relations with two
of the most persistent, contem
porary dictatorships — Spain and
Portugal — and has bases on their
territory.
By the very nature of its policy
— encouraging democracies — the
United States can’t afford to wel
come military coups or dictator
ships without some show of
hesitancy.
But by the very nature of its
dilemma — in trying to stop Com
munism — it apparently feels it
can't afford to shut the door on
anti-Communist regimes, even |

though they are anti-democr: ‘ T.
Yet, American recognition of
anti-democratic governments can
not avoid doing three things:
1. Give Communism anti-Amer
ican propaganda.
2. Add to the uneasiness of shaky
democratic governments trying to
survive under pressure from left
and right.
3. Create skepticism among some
people in backward countries about
the sincerity of the United States
in their democratic future.
If the United States tries to inter
vene on the side of a democratic
regime in Latin America, it can
be accused of butting into the
people’s affairs, a complaint the
United States would like to avoid.
But if it refuses recognition of
a right-wing government, and shuts
off relations, it abandons any
moderating force it might have
asserted and leaves the field to
struggle between the far right and
Communism.

take-over is only 11 days old. |
American Ambassador James Loeb
has been accused by the Peruvian
Foreign Ministry of interfering
in Peru's affairs.
The United States has suspend- j
ed relations with the new regime
and called Loeb home. Other Lai in
American countries — Mexico and
Chile, for instance — have sus
pended relations, too.
Just as big as any other dilemma
for the United States in Latin
America is this:
How long can it keep on recog- i
nizing dictatorships — military or !
civilian.-without ec< uraging more i
of the same until Kennedy’s mticn- j
proclaimed Alliance for Progress j
looks like an empty gesture?
