i4Big Spending’
By HAROLD OLIVER
WASHINGTON, Ufl — A Repub
lican study committee yesterday
presented a sweeping plan en
visioning a gross national product
of 900 billion dollars a year by
1967.
It recommended a manufactur
er’s sales tax and reduction ,of in
dividual and corporate income
taxes.
The tax cuts would come only
after a start is made toward re
ducing the huge national debt,
and would be modest at first.
They would be applied “as rapidly
over the next few years as the
prospective surplus will permit.”
For the long run, the committee
proposed substantially reduced
| taxes and more equitable distri
bution of the tax burden.
The 10,000-word report on “eco
nomic opportunity and progress”
was the fifth and final document
approved by a 40-member com
mittee headed by Charles H. Per
cy, Chicago businessman. The
group was named to outline long
range GOP goals.
Other reports dealt with science,
national security and pdace, and
human rights and needs.
The economic report said sen
! sible management of the public
debt, combined with tax reform,
an effective monetary policy .and
strict control over federal expen
ditures “will do much to help
maintain a steady rate of economic
progress.”
More partisan than any of the
previous reports, the document at
tacked thd Democratic Party for
j what it called “loose money” and
1 big spending ideas.

• SAN FRANCISCO, OP — All a
young man needs to homestead in
Alaska is muscles, sinew, an axe,
I a gun, pioneer spirit . . . and
| about $10,000.
That’s the word brought here
by the Episcopal Bishop of Alas
ka, the Rt. Rev. William T. Gor
don, Jr.
“It’s a wonderful country and
I would be the last to discourage
anyone from going there,” the
boyish-looking, 41-year-old bishop
told interviewers in San Fran
cisco Monday. “But too many of
these big caravans of modern-day
pioneers coming to Alaska for a
new life ( have ended in abject
failure. There’s real opportunity
but only for those with a trade
or with some capital.”
The bishop said the much pub
licized Michigan ’59er caravan is
recorded in Alaska as a prime
example of inadequate planning.
He added that the original objec
tive of the caravan failed, some re
turned, and some found jobs else
where but “those who stayed have
been undergoing hardships that
none ever contemplated.”
“The vision of a 160-acre home
| stead on virgin soil is quite a lure
{ to those in American cities,” the
bishop said. “And it is true that
many farmers have struck it rich
in Alaska.
“But the homesteader must not
only plant his crops and build his
house, he also must build a road
to his property. And it’s generally
three years before he makes a
nickel off the land. He must have
a part time job or the capital to
get going.”
As to a part time job, Bishop
Gordon said, there isn’t much op
portunity in Alaska for unskilled
labor, prticularly in the winter
when the new homesteader needs
work.
I Tragic Vho iunit
! NEYr YORK, (J*) — About three
! months ago a young man came to
j the United State* from his native
Colombia lo make ins way in the
! world.
The youth, Benjamin Becerra,
! 21, took a job as a clerk for a
j chemical company. He lived fru
gally.
He and a friend, also recently
arrived from Colombia, Julio Ver
gez, 21, were walking together on
Riverside Drive taking advantage
I of the Columbus Day holiday to
look* for an apartment they might
share.
A young man clad all in black
approached them silently from
behind and plunged a knife into
Becerra’s back.
Becerra slumped to the ground
and died.
Police say they have no idea
who killed him or why.
