SAVE BY THE 10THEARN FROM THE 1ST EARN 4 ON INSURED SAVINGS (Current Rate) Accounts insured to $10,000 by on agency of the Federal Government Member Federal Home Loan Bank System ROCKHILL FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION 4635 TROOST LO. 1-5050 (AP) Chair man Byrd (D-Va.) said yesterday he does not see how his finance committee can get President Kennedys tax bill to the floor for debate until after Labor day. He said this estimate is based on the assumption that the measure will clear the House and reach his group in June. He said be has been told this is the earliest possible time. Will Require Weeks.

The length of the finance committees hearings will depend in part on the shape the bill is in when it passes the House, he said, adding that in any event several weeks will be required. The committee began its hearings last year on Kennedys tax revision bill April 2 and voted it out August 16, Byrd noted. And the bill this year affects many more people than the one we considered last year, he emphasized. If Byrds committee should receive the bill June 1 and take the same time that it did on the 1962 measure, it would be mid-October before the bill would reach the Senate. Opposition Grows.

jThe veteran committee chairman voiced strong opposition to the Presidents 1963 tax-cutting proposals when they were submitted and said yesterday he is more firm than ever in this position. He reiterated that he would not support any tax cut unless it were accompanied by corresponding reductions in federal Byrd said he has received support for this stand in hundreds of letters sent to him from all parts of the country. He remarked that he is surprised that the proposed tax cut does not have more appeal. I can recall only one letter which favored the bill as it was submitted, he said. The Virginian added he understands several other senators are receiving similar mail.

What He Wants. Kennedys tax recommendations call for cuts totaling for individuals and corporations to take effect over three years. These would be offset in part by various tax-law changes which would boost revenues by $3,300,000,000. Byrd said he would not speculate at all as to what his committee might do. Nor would he comment on reports that Senate Democratic leaders are considering an increase in the size of the committee to 19 to boost its Democratic strength.

However, it was learned that Byrd and other Southerners are determined to fight any such move. MRS. MAY ANNA J. LANCE Mrs. May Anna Jones Lance, 77, formerly of Kansas City, Kansas, died Friday at her home in Fair-field, following an illness of several years.
