Tax Move As War Protest
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright)
NEW YORK, April 19. Fifteen professors at Cornell University said on Monday that they would express their opposition to United States policy in Vietnam by refusing to pay half their income tax.
The professors said they estimated that one half of the United States annual budget went to finance the cost of the war.
One of the professors, Mr Joe Griffith, of the chemistry department, is the husband of Mrs Patricia Griffith, one of four American women to make an unauthorised trip to Hanoi last December.
