In the wake of the sharp stock market drop last week and other indications of declin- ing American confidence in the future, Kennedy took steps Thursday to make clear his tax-cut message will go to con- gress next January, aiming at a "net tax reduction." widen the tax base, though Kennedy emphasized the net ef- fect will be an actual saving to taxpayers. While he declined to indicate what size of reduc- tion he had in mind, some of his associates said they are thinking of a rate cut of about 15 to 25 per cent. So concerned is the U.S. with the state of its economy that Kennedy devoted a major part of his press conference to an- swering domestic economic questions. His major concern, it Calling again on Congress to arm him with requested power to order temporary tax cuts at any time "should a new reces- sion threaten to engulf us," Kennedy hinted he may demand appeared, is that the American investment in plants, now esti- mated to be rising by about eight per cent, be increased he- yond the present projections.

Some 40 homes were reported burning at Krestova, 10 at the villages of Shoreacres and three more at the village of Gil- in.

An RCMP spokesman said the Freedomites simply stood around and watched their houses burn down. There was Police Alarm After Girl's Body Located NEW YORK (AP)--A police alarm spread to Canada and Mexico in a search for a New York physician after the dis- membered body of a girl was found in the sewer to his sump- tuous home and office. However, authorities fear he may have fled to Cuba with which the United States no longer has an extradition treaty. The victim, identified as Bar- bara Lofrumento, 19, had been cut up by scalpel and power saw, apparently after an abor- tion. 'It must have taken him many, many hours," assistant medical examiner John Furey said Thursday. The missing man, Dr. Harvey Lothringer, 41, disappeared last Sunday, some hours after the girl was brought to his office by her mother. With him now, authorities be- lieve, is 25-year - old Theresa Carillo, onetime airline hostess and the doctor's receptionist- tax cuts sooner than next Jan- uary if the economy goes into a tailspin. But he felt that on the whole, the economy is continuing to rise, though it probably would fall short of his mid-1963 goals of a reduction in U.S. unem- ployment from the present 5.5 per cent to four per cent of the total working force.

Coming out of hiding, terror- ist leader Jean Georges Sarra- det called a press conference to appeal to the die-hards to quit. 'We have lost the battle," he said. "We have no right to drag the European community into a catastrophe."
