The President's moves were aimed at curbing inflation one of the most persistent problems of his administration and setting the stage for the forthcom- ing campaign debate over who is to blame for it.

William Timmons, the president's chief liaison with Congress, emerged from an hour-long meeting at the Western White House and accused the Democrats of engaging in an election-year strategy, of passing popular but fiscally irresponsible measures.

He said Congress already exceeded Nixon's budget limitations for the fiscal year, which began last week, by more than $6 billion. "There seems to be a cynical strategy on the part of some Democratic leaders to deliberately send to the President proposals with objectives, but proposals that substantially exceed his budget requests," Timmons said. east parking lot.

As a result of the incident, President Lyndon B. Johnson ordered U.S.' planes to attack North Vietnam for the first time. Five days later, Congress approved the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, cited for the next four years as the legal rduhds for the escalation of American military involvement in the Southeast Asian fighting.

Best Art Direction Best Costume Design SACRAMENTO (OPI) The Assembly has sent to the Senate a bill that would give unmarried taxpayers a $168 million income tax break although opponents labeled the measure the "Hippie Tax Relief Act." The proposal by Assemblyman Robert Cline, R-Canoga Park, was easily-approved Thursday on a 58:9 vote. Cline argued' that the tax rate on single persons is "discriminatory." Under his proposal, a single person would be allowed to compute his taxes in the way a person can; The result be that a single person earning $13,000 a year would have his taxes reduced from $565 to $285. A married couple with the identical income would pay the same $260 he presently pays.

During debate on the mea- sure, Cline said opponents Bad labeled the bill the "Hippie Tax Relief Act" in line with their arguments 't that it would give an unmarried couple living together a better tax break than a married couple. "The inference that single Californian's would live out Of wedlock for tax advantages is unfair on the surface," Cline said.

But Herbert Hill, national NAACP labor director, replied by accusing the government of spending "billions of dollars in federal funds to directly subsidize racial discrimination in employment." A major question- still hanging as the convention of the nation's oldest and largest civil rights organization went into its final day today was whether a proposed resolution calling for President' Nixon'i defeat in the November election would be voted on by 2,300 delegates.
