Commissioners.

Other top items for commis-
: sioners include a public hearing
on a new zoning ordinance and
awarding of a contract for the
new shop facility at the "Munici-

The new zoning ordinance, to be

reading, incorporates a number
. of changes recommended by the
; Planning and Zoning Commis-
Dominican Republic's first free
election in 38 years.
The fighting ostensibly was be-
tween elements of the conserva-
tive National Civic Union and the
minor Revolutionary Vanguard
party. The latter joined forces
Tuesday with the Revolutionary
party, a moderate leftist group
that poses the chief challenge to
the National Civic Union.
The disorders broke the uneasy
quiet that settled over this island
nation as the people waited to
exercise the ballot after a genera-
tion of dictatorship under Gener-
alissimo Rafael L. Trujillo. He
was assassinated in May 1961.
Major interest centered on the
tight race for the presidency be-
tween Dr. Viriato A. Fiallo, 67.
of the conservative National Civic
Union, and Juan Bosch, 63, leader
of the left-of-center Revolutionary
party.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Ralph!
| Yarborough of Texas has opposed1
the proposed Internal Revenue
regulation requiring accounting
on travel and entertainment ex
penses from $10 up
Yarborough wired Mortimer
M Caplin, commissioner of In-
ternal Revenue, that "the propos-
ed $10 receipt rule on expense
items would bury America un-
der a mountain of paper These,
first proposed regulations are
so burdensome and expensive as
to defeat the ultimate aim of gov-
ernmental regulations, namely ef
ficiency in government
"While new regulations are
needed to prevent glaring abuses,
and tax cheating." Yarborough,
said, "I hope the new regulations
I will not cripple honest business
for drive out of business the mu-
sicians and restaurants where to-"
I tal bills might exceed $10.” 1
