THE ANDERSON HERALD TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 1972 McGovern Sticks To Guns In Asserting ITT Paid No Taxes From 1968-70 MILWAUKEE (AP) Sen. George McGovern, campgning in Wisconsin's presidential primary stuck Monday to his assertion that International Telephone I Telegraph Corp. had paid no federal income taxes for the past three years, though financial statements on file at the Securities and Exchange Commission contradicted his charge. Minnesota Sen. Hubert Humphrey, meanwhile, burst into a 19-hour campaign day, and Sen.

Edmund S. Muskie appealed on television for support on the eve of the primary. In his election eve telecast, Muskie said he believes he is the candidate "who can turn the right positions into national policy" by defeating President next November. "I believe our challenge in 1972 is to change the country, not to conduct a losing campaign for change, which leaves us with nothing more" than the memory of what might have been "You will have little satisfaction a year from now if you look back on the Wisconsin primary and that you voted for favored tax lost the TrefamicaLe presidential election." Muskie said. "'You will find little satisfaction in the knowledge that you voted for someone who stood for peace in Vietnam if Richard Nixon is still president and the war rages on." Alabama Gov.

George C. heard Wisconsin "is going to fine state for us, we're going to do well." Sen. Henry M. Jackson of Washington accused Muskie and McGovern of boarding an bandwagon" by proposing big cuts in defense spending. Mayor.

Harrell, executive director of the State Highway Commission, said Monday. Harrell made the proposal in a presentation before Purdue University's 58th annual road school here. He said a highway department study of state and local highway needs through 1990, prepared earlier this year to meet federal requirements, shows Indiana will need $7.1 billion to meet its state and U.S. highway needs. About $3.56 billion will come from the present eight cents per gallon state motor fuel tax.

and about $1.5 billion can be expected from the federal government: under present programs, Harrell said. The billion, he -said, will have to be found where. "In my opinion Indiana will again need to take a closer look providing some seriously needed new multi-lane highways in selected locations with the toll road method of said. of the many regulations the national level and more recently at the state level, the time lag between the time a project is first approved until completed and opened to traffic can be as much as eight to nine years. "At number of nations are building toll roads today and they are being completed, from beginning to end, in one-third of the time conventional roads are taking in this country.

"In addition, this method of financing major high-traffic count roads would release funds for the building and repair of other needed roads with less traffic, and assist in im-1 proving maintenance on the entire system." Harrell has been a consistant opponent of proposals to use motor fuel taxes to subsidize rapid transit systems which could relieve highway congestion. "The automobile will continue to be the mode of trans. portation the individual will select to take him to and from work. to the grocery store, to church, to the city for he said. "The motor truck will also continue to be, in many cases, the only means of delivering goods and providring services DIETERS LOVE YOGURT Dieters love yogurt because it is low in calories but retains the full vitamin, protein and mineral content of pasteurized milk.

"CHARGE IT" finish "a very strong third" in the primary.

A record primary turnout of about 1.5 million voters was forecast despite unseasonably cold weather nd partly cloudy skies predicted for election day. The polls open as early as 8 a.m. EST, and close at 9 p.m. statewide. The vote will be recorded on a machine in Milwaukee and other cities and suburban areas, with paper ballots in use in rural sections of the state.

Fifty-five per cent of the voting is expected to be on machines. In Washington, financial statements on file with the SEC contradicted McGovern's assertion that ITT paid no federal income taxes in the past three years. But McGovern, who made the charge in a national television interview broadcast from Milwaukee Sunday, stuck to his claim. McGovern had at first said the SEC reports also showed a $400,000 contribution to the Republican National Convention and listed it as a tax deducation, but acknowledged later that was not so. He said he had made an honest mistake.

But his clarifying statement said the SEC documents "indicate that at least for the taxable years of 1968, 1969 and 1970, the corporation as a whole Was in a net nonpayment situation with respect to federal corporate income taxes." An ITT spokesman said in New York Monday that the corporation, embroiled in a Senate inquiry over the convention contribution, had paid U.S, taxes in those three ye years. The ITT spokesman said that in 1971, the corporation paid more than $207 million in income taxes, about one-third of the total in federal taxes. Fi- nancial statements on file at the SEC supported the ITT figures. But at a news conference in Madison Monday, McGovern said that some of the ITT subsidiaries paid taxes, but because of losses of other subsidiaries, "the net flow was not from ITT to the government but the other way around. "ITT as a conglomerate has not paid taxes, to the feder5al South Dakota Democrat said.

The key issue, said McGovern, is "whether money actually flowed from ITT to the government or the other way around. He called on the company to make public its tax returns, to clear up the seen McGovern the said ITT he filed has not report with tale SEC, but "I talked to the staff members who have read the report in Washington." He said that based on this, ITT President Harold Geneen should have said in his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee that "Some of our subsidiaries pay taxes but some of the others deducted such bit losses that, when put together, we actually piled up tax credits rather than pay taxes." Asked exactly what he was charging, McGovern said, "'The charge is that a corporation, a conglomerate operation of this kind, made $300 million in profits last year and paid no taxes at all, and admits that they're going to write off against their tax obligation an enormous political contribution which is, in fact, violating the Corrupt Practices Act." Referring to the contribution, McGovern said: "They (ITT) are intending to write off that $400,000 contribution they claim it is a business loss."

"ITT did not pay the taxes, some of their subsidiaries paid taxes," McGovern replied. "But these were more than offset by tax losses which ITT claimed on other subsidiaries, so that the net flow was not from ITT to the government, but the other way around." McGovern was asked, in view of what he said of the SEC report, whether he was saying the AP story wrong, and he replied, "Either that or the SEC has got to be wrong. One or the other.

They can't both be right."

Kenneth Davis had reported itself on nine counts in the 10-count indictment. Defense lawyers argued that any subsequent decision would have to be coercive verdict." The jury had proposed Monday to start all over again in its assessment of the conspiracy charges. But the judge put a rein on the panel. It was not until late afternoon that the jury returned to the courtroom and heard Herman repeat his instructions on the law covering the possession and use of explosives, circumstantial evidence, the definition of mail threats as pertaining to Kissinger, and the legal ramifications of entrapment as a defense. The jury failed to indicate what portions of the Douglas testimony it wanted, and there was some indication the members may have shelved that request, at least for the present.

The jury was offered a break for the night. Sheets, however, told Herman they -preferred to return to the deliberation room and work for a while longer. The nine women and three men asked for a' rereading of U.S. District Court Judge R. Dixon Herman's entire twohour charge, with which he sent them into deliberations last Thursday.

They previously heard a rerun of parts of it. The jury also asked again for complete transcript of 20. volunes of testimony by FBI informer Boyd F. Douglas, al government witness who said that the Harrisburg Seven plotted to kidnap White House adviser Henry A. Kissinger, blow up Washington's tunnel heating system and ravage draft boards in several Eastern cities.

Herman declined to reread his charge and the testimony in their entirety. But he told the jurors he would repeat specific passages they might designate. "I understood that we could submit to you those points on which we need more information about the Douglas testimony and the said foreman Harold Sheets before the jury left the courtroom. "Yes can you do that?" Herman replied. "I think so," said Sheets, a Harrisburg tax accountant.

The jury convicted Berrigan of a single count of smuggling a letter out of Lewisburg, federal penitentiary through Douglas on May 24, 1970. The partial verdict made him liable to a maximum 10- year federal prison term, in addition to a six-year sentence he has been serving for two years for destroying draft board records. The jurors reported themselves deadlocked on nine other counts in the indictment, including the key accusation of conspiracy, covering purported plots to abduct Kissinger and destroy federal property.
