It may be Congress' last crack at a 1958 tax cut. The House recently beat down efforts to repeal the taxes, and Senate "hold the line" advocates said they thought they could defeat efforts, too. The administration and House Democratic leaders had agreed this was.no time to slash federal revenue and extended existing certain . excise and corporate (sales) tax rates for another year. It may take two days to dispose of the bill in the Senate. The House, meanwhile, prepared to pass a compromise d $1,555,746,000 version of the rivers " and harbors "bill.

The President opened his news conference with a prepared statement in which he said: "Admitting the lack of that careful prudence in this incident that Governor Adams yesterday referred to, I believe with my whole heart that he is an invaluable public servant, doing a difficult job efficiently, honestly and tirelessly," This, the President said, was "all that I can, all that I shall Told U.S. Prepared to 200 Fishermen Feared Drowned Off Mexico Coast The bodies of the 15th and 16th victims were recovered early this morning after an all night search. Skin divers continued their si lent search below the surface for at least two other workers still unaccounted for. Twenty survivors of the tragedy were hospitalized but none was reported critically injured. One of the survivors said. he believed the weight of a mobile crane that was perched near the end of one of the sections was too heavy for the temporary pier to support. The huge crane was driven close to the end of a new section a few minjites before the thundering collapse. The crane toppled into Burrard Inlet as the section 180-to- n fell. The force of the first section giving way bent a cement pilon by about 10 degrees which dislodged the second section. Damage was estimated at three million dollars and engineers said the collapse would delay completion of the bridge by" about six months.

In response to that question, the President said he considered his prepared statement what was demanded and needed and expected of him. Eisenhower's face was flushed and his tone was stern as he read the statement at a rapid pace. Defends Adams' Honesty He said he had dictated it because he wanted it to be taken down exactly as he intended. Reading from five by seven-inc-h cards on which it was typed in large letters, Eisenhower "led off by saying: "The intense publicity lately surrounding the name of Sherman Adams makes it desirable, even necessary, that I start thiis conference with an expression of my own views about the matter." He told the 257 newsmen that . fire , .. . his personal integrity and honesty." , "No one has believed that he could be bought," th President said. But Eisenhower said "there la a feeling or belief that he wis noti sufficiently alert in making certain that the gifts, of which he was the recipient, could be sov misinterpreted as to be considered as attempts to influence his official actions." "To that extent he has been, as he stated yesterday, , imprudent," Eisenhower declared. Adams testified Tuesday before a House influence-- investigating subcommittee that Goldfine gave' him vicuna cloth for a coat; loaned him a rug for his rented Washington home and paid .bills at hotels in New York, Boston and Plymouth, Mass. Adams denied that he exerted any influence on Goldfine's behalf before government agencies but acknowledged that if he had to do it over again he might have acted "more prudently." Must Avoid Carelessness .' The President said today that "the utmost prudence must necei-Saril- y be observed by everyone attached to the White House because of the possible effect of. any slightest inquiry, suggestion or observation emanating from thia office and reaching any other part of the government." "Carelessness must be avoided, he added. Eisenhower then said that his "own conclusions on the entire episode" were that: "1.

American officials emphasized the hope that presence of U.N. observers will help restore order and prevent the infiltration of leaders and arms for the rebels from neighboring Syria, a part of the (United Arab Republic (UAR). But they made it clear the United States, with its powerful Sixth Fleeting cruising in the eastern Mediterranean, will not sit idly by and watch the tides of chaos engulf the government of Lebanese President Camille Chamoun. Disclosure of the firm American position came after Secretary of State John Foster Dulles told a news conference Tuesday there were "possible contingencies' which U.S'. Marines would be sent into Lebanon apart from any U.N. action. Dulles said he was "aware of the fact" that the Sixth Fleet has elements close to Lebanon with Marines aboard who could "if need be; respond to appropriate invitations." Later in the day Dulles went to the Pentagon where he conferred with Defense Secretary Neil. H.
