Tax hike seen
Military budget soars
WASHINGTON—(UPI)—President Johnson's warning that higher federal spending means higher taxes was sharpened today with reports of military spending rates soaring $4 billion above budget estimates.
Johnson said he has asked for a tough review of defense spending. It appeared clear a multibillion dollar supplemental appropriation would be required to meet the increased defense expenditures now forecast.
U.S. troops trap cong
SAIGON—(UPI)—U.S. and Allied troops trapped a Communist force on the central coast today and killed 91. The enemy was reported surrendering in droves.

East Europe allies act in Red China
HONG KONG—(UPI)Russia and its East European allies are planning to interfere actively in Communist China's feverish internal upheaval in favor of Peking party factions opposing Mao Tse-tung and his anti-Soviet policies, Western diplomatic sources said today.
In a prepared analysis of Peking's continuing political turmoil, the sources said recent diplomatic activity involving Soviet and East European allies indicated that the Soviet bloc nations were ready to take some type of action against China.

HENRY'S HAMBURGERS
6th at Missouri
In Moscow, the Soviet Communist party newspaper Pravda today published for the second time this week a call for a world Communist summit meeting to condemn Red China's maverick policies.
The unprecedented walkout by Soviet and other Communist party delegations at Peking's 17th annual national day celebrations, Oct. 1, and a barrage of recent criticism against Peking's sweeping "cultural revolution" purge were referred to specifically in the analysis.
WORLD NEWS School bill hikes funds; hampers race relations
WASHINGTON—(UPI)The House and Senate have approved school aid bills that kick the Johnson administration where it hurts the most this election year—in the swollen budget and the sensitive area of race relations.
The two versions of the school aid measure, passed yesterday, far exceed the spending authority the President asked.
The House bill would allow $5.7 billion for the elementary and secondary school aid program. The Senate bill would authorize $6.4 billion for the same period.
The House was about $430 million over Johnson's one year request; the Senate well over $1 billion in excess.
Perhaps even more painful for the administration was the House's approval of an amendment barring the U.S. Office of Education's current practice of deferring action on aid applications from districts the agency believes are violating the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

No Viet peace talk until bombing ends
India, which has excellent diplomatic contacts in Southeast Asia in addition to being chairman of the International Control Commission (ICC), gave that report to Secretary of State Dean Rusk last Wednesday.
UNITED NATIONS —(UPI)— India has informed the United States that North Viet Nam flatly refuses even to discuss peace negotiations until U.S. bombing raids against it are called off, diplomatic sources said today.
Johnson's trip to the U.N. front door today to address the National Conference of Editorial Writers was a last-minute arrangement that miffed many delegates who had been hoping he would come here to delineate U.S. policy to the assembly.
Seaside forecasts cloud tourist trade
FELIXSTOWE, England — (UPI)—A tourist committee here was told that "perverse sadists" in the Meteorological Office like to forecast bad weather for seaside resorts. The group adopted a motion urging weathermen "to look on the brighter side" when there were doubts about coastal weather.
