WASHINGTON (AP) House Republican leaders said today thev are accepting President Kennedy's challenge to spell out the places where they would cut billions from his $98.8 billion budget. "We'll give them a bill of particulars when the time comes," said GOP Leader Charles A.

Halleck of Indiana, "and we'll be responsible about it." Rep. Frank T. Bow of Ohio, head of a Republican task force on budget cutting, said the detailed proposals for reduced spending are already in the hands of the Republican members best placed to use senior minority members of the various subcommittees considering appropriations bills. Kennedy, who defended what he called his hard budget at his news conference Wednesday, also came in for some Republican criticism for his latest statement on tax reduction and tax revision. "They seem to blow hot and cold," Halleck commented.

Rep. Thomas Curtis of Missouri, a member of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee, said it looks as though there are two groups in the administration tugging the President in different directions. Statements by Kennedy, Secretary of the Treasury Douglas Dil Ion and others have agreed that an early tax reduction is desirable and that it would be best carried out in connection with revisions to make the tax code more equitable and restore some of the revenue lost by cutting rates. But there has appeared to be difference of emphasis from time to time on the importance of revisions and how much they could be elimi nated from a tax cut bill without forfeiting Kennedy's approval of it. Kennedy was asked Wednesday whether his recent statements be for a bankers' symposium meant "You would accept a tax cut without any reforms at all." "That isn't what I said," he replied, and added that he thinks Congress "will enact a tax reduction bill which will include important elements of the reforms that we set up." Curtis said he believes Dillon wants tax reform but that other presidential advisers seem determined on a cut at all costs.

Curtis added he thinks that holding the budget to about $94 billion would be enough spending control to justify a tax cut. Loyal Reincoacn, soil scientist In the Mt.
