Harriman y ( y will aik the Legislature next week to reduce personal Income taxes $3 tor each taxpayer and each de- pendent. The governor also will request passage of amendments to the tax law designed t!> provide relief for working motfiera, the aged, Iflie 111 and the blind. An tnfor med source said yester- day that the outs requested even- tually might total 50 million dol- lars, of which 40 millions would represent the $5 credit. The source declined to permit attribution of the statement to htei. The Dernocraic governor's de- cision appears to , assure some form of tax relief. Leaders of the Republican majority In the Legis- lature had said last week that they would seek a SO million dollar tax reduction. In a statement today, Assembly Speaker Oswald D. Heck declared \Republicans announced a 50 mil- lion dollar income tax reduction last week. We are glad that the finally has seen the source indicateed that Harri- wouM ask for cuts other than $ credit and the so-called ! \humanizing\ amendments but de- clined to speculate what they might be. The «credit would be effictive on the 1955 tax, for which returns are due next April IS. The source did not elaborate on Harrlman's plans regarding the \humanizing\ amendments or when Jhey would take effect Republican h ill leaders have said p they will propose reducing the in- come tax on a percentage basis, which they say would give \pro- portionately greater benefits to those in the lower brackets.\ Heck and Majority Leader Wal- ter Mahoney of the Senate have said they will give top priority to the \humanizing\ amendments. Harriman vetoed bills passed !n 1955 that wouM have cut taxes for working mothers, persons over 65, the DI and the blind. It has been estimated uiWfficlat- ly that the Republican proposals would cot taxes about 8 mffllons through the pereeentage reduction. Albany OP) — Gov. Harriman's •plan to out taxes 50 million dollars Is an aliouMace forced on him by the Republicans, the Republican etate chairman asserted today. \As recently as last August,\ L. Judson Morhcuse said in a state- ment , \Mr. Harriman was tasking in terms of still another tax in- crease, at least for this year.\ Morhouse said . this represented \a great victory for the people, even before the 1896 session of the Legislature is convened.\ President Will Run, G.OP. Leaders Think Washington (#) — A big majority of Republican leaders now seem to be convinced President Eisenhower will run again. The Associated Press today completed a poll of 134 Republicans who are governors, state GOP chairmen, national conwnltteemen or national committeewomen. ' j They were asked: \Do you believe Eisenhower wil run again?\ This is their answer: Yes, 77; Yes, if 19; No, 17; Don't know, or no comment, 21. The \yes i£\ classification is for those' who said, yes, it he has recovered sufficiently from his heart attack of last September. A follow-up question also was asked: \fi not wtoom do you con- sider most likely to win the GOP nomination?\ Since most of .the politicians al- ready had said, they thought the President would run again, not many cared to speculate on what will happen if he doesn't Ten said they thought Vice Pres- ident Richard Nixon had the best chance if Eisenhower dropped out. Other suggestions included: Sen: William F. Knowland (Oal), Chief Justice Earl Warren, Secre- tary of -the Treasury George Hum- phrey, Rep. Joe Martin (Mass), •Sen. Leverett Saltonstall (Mass), Sen. Everett Dirksen CHI), Gov. Christian A. Herter (Mass), Gov. William G. Stratton (Hi), former Gov. Thomas E. Dewey (NY), United Nations Representative Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., and Har- old Stassen, a special assistant to the President. But, mostly, the Republicans pinned their hopes on Eisenhower running again. L. Judson Morhouse, New York State chairman: \Eisenhower will be reelected by the greatest mar- gin of states since 1936\ when Franklin D. Roosevelt rolled over Alf Landon. If any of flie politicians felt that some voters may hesitate to vote for a man who has had a heart attack, they didn't mention it. And Gov. Joseph B. Johnson of Ver- mont said he was sure it wouldn't make any difference. The fluctuations on\ the GOP optimism chart probably can best be shown by a series of comments from Wendell Wyatt, Oregon state chairman. On.. Sept. 9,. iwo weeks before Eisenhower's heart attack, Wyatt was asked what he'd do if Eisen- hower said no to a second term. „ , a wrya icide. 1 ' On Sept 28, lour days after the attack, Wyatt said: \He has serv- ed his country so long and well we would not want to jeopardize his later years.\ Now three months later, here's Wyatt once more: \Yes without qualification, Eis- enhower's patriotism is such he will feel the need to run again.' IKE OFF TO FLA. FOR 2 WEEKS Washington UP) — President Ei- senhower flew out of Washington s cold weather today headed for Key West, Fla., and about two week of the sun, rest and outdoor exer- cise his doc-tors have presciibied. The presidential plane Colum- bine m took oflTTrom National Airport at 9:15 a.m. It was due at Boca Chica Airport, Key West, in something under four hours. Physicians recommended warm- er weather and more chance to get outdoors to help with Eisen- hower's- convalescence from his Sept. 24 heart attack, The time for the trip and (he choice of Key West were announced only yester- day. Wall Street DOUBT FELT ON SOVIET BUDGET Washington (*) — Sen.' Mans- field (D-Mont) said today \we shouldn't be taken in\ by Russia's announced plans to cut its military budget by 10 per cent next year. \We must keep our defenses up,\ be cautioned. Mansfield, a member of the Sen- ate Foreign Relations Committee, suggested the development could mean a Soviet switch to heavier reliance on atomic striking power. Several other senators of both political parties also were openly tii of the Soviet Union's in- , r _FMcClellan (D-Ark) said he is/\very skeptical mat tiiere is any truth in the statement that Russia Is reducing heV military expendi- tures by 10 per cent.\ Sen. 3>worshak (R-Idaho) said \when I have proof, I'll believe Jt.\ Sen. Potter (R-Mich) said he takes the Russian announcement \with a large grain of salt\ McOellan, Dworshak and Potter serve on iiie Senate Appropriations Committee. The Soviet parliament today ap- proved, Moscow Radio said, 1956 budget providing for defense appropriations totaling 102% bit lion rubles. This is nearly 10 per cent below tile 1955 estimate of 132,122,(100,000 rubles. Almough the Russians peg the iruble at 25 cents, its purchasing power is considerably less. The actual Russian military out- lay is not fully reflected in its de- fense appropriations figure be- cause many directly related items are hidden under other budget headings. New York (/P) — Prices drifted today in the stock- market with trading quiet in the early after- noon. For the most part, price changes either way were narrow with only a handful of plus or minus signs larger than a point. Trading maintained a moderate pace a little under the 2,010,000 shares that changed hands yester- day. Motors were active at lower prices, railroads, which were a strong feature of yesterday's mar- ket, were fairiy steady today and quiet. MORE SAIX VACCINE Washington (a 1 ) — The Public Health Service today announced release of another 1,368, 306 doses of SalU anttpolio vaccine. This made a total of 3,414,213 cubic centimeters - or doses - re- leased thus far in December. Since six drug houses were licensed April 12 to make the vaccine, 29,- 861,831 CCs have been released. Gen. Alfred M, Gruenther, North Atlantic Treaty Organization com- mander, was announced this morn- ing as a late addition to the party but he was not aboard at takeoff. He may go to Key West later. The Columbine's takeoff was de- layed 45 minutes to await the ar- rival of Dr. Milton S.' Kisenhower, the President's brother, who Bew here in a single-engine private plane from University Park Pa., where he is president of Pennsyl- vania State University. Eisenhower's stay at Key West could be an important factor in his decision on whether to seek a second term. His doctors hope the trip will condition him tor resump- tion of a full work load in about two weeks. Eisenhower will stay at the same naval base that was a favorite vacation spot for former President .Truman. KiSbobwOTt- will occupy quarters be used in 194»when, as president of. Columbia Univeulty, he recu- perated £rom ft g&£Etp>4ntestinal attack. Mrs. Eisenhower did not go. The White House noted that her moSa- er, Mrs. John S.

' ... < The dentists seemed agreed that they could not ask for more than this commitment. When the question was raised as to (be prospective change ot the Saranac Lake water system which would move the pumping facilities to McKenale Road, the dentists asked whether the fluori- station system could not be install- ed and then moved, after the new system went Into effect.

Blakeslee Associated Press Science Writer Atlanta (^P) — Don't count on a walk in fresh air to sober up quick- ly if you over-imbibe on New Year's Eve. For getting more oxygen doesn't help you burn up excess alcohol /aster, a scientist paid today. A few lungfuls of fresh air won't make you a safe driver. The tip comes from Dr. Theo- dore Koppanyi, professor^ of -phar- macology at the Georgetown Uni- versity Medical School, Washing- ton, D.C. Dr. Koppanyi discussed alcoholic poisoning in a paper pre- ared for the American Assn. for the Advancemet of Science. It takes five to six hours for your body to burn up four ounce; of whisky, he said. And experi- ments indicating that breathing nearly pure oxygen speeds sober- ing are not borne out by other studie's. There is also disagreement whether injections of insulin or a sugar, glucose, speed the rate of burning up alcohol. From limited experiments, injec- tions of another form of sugar, fructose, do look promising for making the human body get 'rid of alcohol faster, the scientist said.
