Bus- iness gets the bulk of the $1,- 500,000,000 reduction, designed to spur faster economic growth. President Kennedy announced the cut Wednesday and noted that the principal pressure for it came from the business com- munity. Treasury Secretary Dillon told a press conference the tax cut should have a quick impact on the U.S. economy. He said many businesses have promised to use tax savings to increase their investments in new machinery and equipment. He forecast an uptrend in orders for these items in the next couple of months. The action, which didn't need congressional approval, offers larger tax deductions to firms investing in newer, mor eeffi- cient facilities. Larger deduc- tions obviously will mean lower tax payments. REACTION FAVORABLE Initial reaction from business spokesmen and _ congressional leaders generally was favor- able. The overhaul of the tax depreciation system--the first in at least 20 years--was de- signed specifically to meet bus- iness complaints that the old system was stunting economic progress. In Cleveland, Walter J. Camp- bell, editor of Steel magazine, said Kennedy's action "is one of the most positive steps that could be taken to encourage employment and business re- covery." Steel will be one of the prin- ciple beneficiaries of the liber- alization. Railroads and paper producers also will receive sub- stantial benefits. again to earth.

Import Duty Hike Said Structural sENEVA (Reuters) Sev- eral member countries of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade have expressed con- cern at what they called Can- ada's breach of GATT rules by raising import duties under its new austerity program, it was disclosed today. Canada has been explaining last month's measures, taken to protect its dollar and reduce its balance of payments deficit, at a two-day private meeting of the council which ends today. Several countries have urged that the austerity measures "I say to Mr. Khrushchev injissued from Middlesex Hospital|should be considered. by the contracting parties to GATT at their next meeting in October.

The report of Patrol Serge- ant Peter White said the injured youth arrived at the hospital in a dirty condition. His face, neck and arms were smeared with black grease. In a detailed account of the incident, Gionet told investigat- ing officers that as he lay on the tracks a train passed over him, He said he felt something bumping his head, and also that he felt steam. Police questioned the driver Gionet had called to the Albany Restaurant. The driver said he was called about 1.40 a.m. and found a man in a dirty condition at the restaurant. He said he assumed the man had been drinking. e today. | He explained of payments difficulties "structural."' Canada needed the additional protection represented by 15, 10 and five per cent increases in some tariffs because it was un- able to produce the import goods itself and because Can- jada was not in a position to jexpand its exports.

(AP) -- Inte- gration leaders Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Rev. Ralph Abernathy were released from jail today over their »rotests after someone paid fines for them. "I don't know who paid it," King said. 'We didn't want to leave but we couldn't stay any longer. "It makes us very, very un- happy." King and Mr. Abernathy both said they were puzzled by their surprise release. They said they had received fine treatment dur- ing their stay in the city jail. They were convictd in rec: order's court Tuesday for their part in racial demonstrations last December They were given a choice of 45 days in jail or $178 fines. Both chose the jail terms. may question whether the new treas-_//-- ury rules are adequate to do the whole job they want. But the easier terms should help. The immediate. result of let- ting corporations deduct more for depreciation of their equip- ment, the government says, will be a $1,500,000,000 tax relief. The longer aim is to encour age American industry to further modernization--to catch up in a field in which it once led the world. A corporation can finance new equipment in four ways: It can sell more stock; it can bor- row the money; it can retain profits that otherwise would be paid to stockholders as divi- dends; it can use depreciation funds, Usually it uses more than one of these means. Since funds set aside for de- preciation of old equipment are deducted from pre-tax earnings, the tax collectors have rules covering them. The old rule in force since 1942 covered some 5,000 types of equipment, ranging from de- livery trucks to blast furnaces. The life of such equipment varies, so that depreciatioa is al spread over a varying number . of years, But the average life. expectancy in the treasury rules was just under 20 years. 'i Businessmen say this was un- fair, because machinery grows obsolete much faster than that today, and also the amounts they could deduct wouldn't cover new machinery that custs so much more than a few years back. taxi § The investigating officer said 3 grease stains found in the cab § matched those found on the west side of the CPR bridge.
