Johnson Predicts WASHINGTON (CP)--Stress- ing a need to battle poverty, President Johnson predicted to- day that U.S. prosperity may gross national production to a record of more than $623,- 000,000,000 this year, provided Congress immediately enacts a long-awaited $11,000,000,000 tax cut. At the same time, he reported "disquieting" omens of price rises, warning business and la- bor he is establishing an 'early warning system'? among gov- ernment agencies to keep a close watch on price and wage evelopment d ts, In the face of a 44-per-cent rise in U.S, corporate profits in less than three years and the prospect of further rises through anticipated tax cuts, Johnson told Congress in his first annual economic message that he sees "no warrant" for inflationary price boosts. He said he will "not hesitate to draw public attention to ma- jor actions by either business or labor that flout the public inter- CITY EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS | est in non-inflationary price and wage standards." Aside from an urgent job of reducing the pockets of poverty affecting one-fifth of U.S. pop- ulation, Johnson anticipated that if Congress moves ahead with anticipated corporation and individual tax cuts, the gross national product--value of all goods and services produced --would rise by some 6.5 per cent this year, an increase of some $38,000,000,000 from last year's record $585,000,000,000. Officials anticipate that such an. increase, which would in- corporate an actual production volume boost of some 'five per cent, would spill over into higher U.S. imports from' Can- ada and other countries. As an indication of how Can- ada has been able to compete in foreign trade, Johnson's eco- nomic advisers estimated in his teport that while U.S. wholesale prices in foreign trade re- mained steady during 1958-63, Canadian and.French prices, expressed in U.S. dollars, de- clined. These lower Canadian- French prices resulted from ex- change rate depreciations in the two countries, the report said.

Mutiny Ended In Tanganyika DAR ES SALAAM, Tangany- ika -- President Julius Nyerere said in a radio announcement that army mutineers who early teday held this city to ransom had returned quietly to their barracks. Nyerere said that a '"'misun- derstanding" in the army had been settled at his intervention. For 12 hours a few hundred armed Negro soldiers held their British officers, demanding bet- ter pay and conditions. Before the mutinous. soldiers returned to camp, there were reports of beatings and looting by local residents who took ad- vantage of the situation. Several photographers at the city's new Africa Hotel were threatened. Photographer Bob Rider-Ri- der of The Associated Press) was beaten by police who sided with soldiers when he was tak- ing pictures. Repo reaching Nairobi, Kenya, said a mob in the Asian quarter of Dar es Salaam was looting and smashing windows with shouts of "Colonialists go home." The rioters were reported: to be pping cars, windshields and then dancing on their rooftops. The mutiny apparently started after soldiers realized en this East African country. For a few hours it was feared that the nationalist revolution that swept the sultan from his throne in Zanzibar had. spread to Tanganyika, one of the most stable of the former British col- onies in Africa. It was believed the soldiers first 'demanded that Nyerere should agree to better pay. He refused and told External Af- fairs Minister Oscar Kambona to negotiate with the mutineers. In a lightning coup, the sol- diers trapped their British offic- ers and Negro non - commis- sioned officers at Colito Bar- racks, five miles north of the city, and sped to the capital in trucks. They crashed the gates of All Not Quiet In Tanganyika LONDON (Reuters) -- Com- monwealth Secretary Duncan Sandys told Parliament today that by late this afternoon the situation in Tanganyika, where troops had mutinied, was "again deteriorating." Sandys said it seemed the troops had left their barracks and might have taken control of t! the airport. He said a British naval ves- sel had gone from Zanzibar to Dar es Salaam and was stand- ing by near shore. WASHINGTON (AP). -- The compulsory branding of every cigarette pack with a. danger warning was proposed today by the U.S, Federal Trade Commis- sion, A public hearing called for Marck 16 also will consider the prohibition of any cigarette ad- vertising which claims smoking promotes good health or physi- cal well being, that it is not a health hazard or that one brand is less dangerous than another. A third proposed new rule would bar from cigarette adver- tising statements about the quantity of smoke ingredients, such as tars and nicotine, un- less the amounts are verified by tests conducted under govern- ment standards and procedures. The commission identified its proposed regulations with the call for remedial action made by the U.S. government. report on smoking and health issued by the surgeon general last Sat- urday. The FTC said it has "season WAR ON SMOKING Danger Warning Brand Proposed to believe that much current cigarette advertising may vio- late the laws" prohibiting false, misleading, deceptive or unfair advertising of products that may endanger human health or safety. The FTC said the suggested new rules are merely propos- als which could be modified, withdrawn or added to on the basis of the hearings, a study of information supplied by in- terested parties, or other devel- opments. It 'suggested two alternate forms: 1. "Caution--cigarette smok- ing is a healh hazard: The sur- geon general's advisory com- mittee on smoking and health has found that 'cigarette smok- ing contributes substantially to mortality from certain specific diseases and to the over-all death rate." 2.
