PLAN CONSOLIDATES PERMANENT HOUSING PROJECT House Approval Predicted On Senate-Passed Tax Bill Washington, May -Sen. Millikin pre-! dicted prompt house acceptance: of the senate's July 1 tax reduction bill today following the four-vole defeat of a Democratic postponement motion. Encouraged by what they called a "high water mark" victory, GOP leaders drove for senate passage of the four billion dollar tax relief bill by Thursday, when congress plans. to recess for the Memorial day weekend. Some Democrats gave the majority little chance of achieving its speedup goal, But they admitted the measure would pass.

Millikin. chairman of the senate finance committee, said the house would "not take long" in accepting the senate revisions in its bill, even if the measure was sent to a conference committee. At the same time he forecast a vote on major Democratic amendments even "better" than the 48-to-44 rejecticn of the June 10 postponement motion sponsored by Sen. George Ga. Sen.

Lucas virtually conceded defeat in advance on his substitute bill which incorporates the two principal changes sought by minority One of these would boost personal exemptions by $100. The other would give husbands! and wives in. all states the right to split their income for tax purposes, now possible in only nine community property states. Lucas put little faith in GOP promises to include the community property change in a general tax law revision next January. At the same time Lucas indicated his opposition to any to write the proviso into the tax bill without his accompanying exemption increase.

The whip explained: "If you put in just the community property amendment, you give 750 million dollars more to upper. bracket taxpayers. That would throw the tax structure all out of joint. You have to do. the two things together or an inequity results for the low-income group."

Not much change in temperature, Truman To Choose Director Russ Foresee A Long Peace Kiwanis Hears Welfare Expert A happy home life is sary to prevent juvenile delin-1 quency, Dr. Dorothy Heintz, head of the mental health department of the state welfare department, said Monday night when she spoke to Tipton Kiwanians at their regular meeting at the Presbyterian church.

A misunderstood child, she said, is hostile to society and its anti-social. behavior strikes at the safety and welfare of the people. A home that is economically poor is not necessarily a cause of delinquency, according to the speaker, but such factors as venereal disease, or a lack of love and understanding in the home can lead to anti-social behavior. Dr. Heintz said that the community should recognize symptoms of maladjustment in a child and should take corrective before it is too late.

She charged that adults do not understand youth and that youth, sometimes, does not understand itself. The speaker denied that delinquency can be inherited and used several case histories to illustrate points in her talk.
