Tax Rise and Curbs
On Credit Urged in
Economists Report
! BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, April 16.-TIigher
taxes and credit restrictions are
advocated by five American econ
omists.. who describe imitation as
the Nations No. / mobilization
problem.
The recommendations are con-
tanned in a report issued by the
Twentieth Century Fund, q non-
profit foundation for research on
current economic problems.
The report. entitled Defense
Without Imitation" said yesterday
that an imitation rate above 5 per
cent must be taken to register q
serious default of Government in
its job Of sorting out the more
urgent claims on output from the
less urgent"
Other Measures Urged.
Current wage and price con-
trolls, the economists said. must
be backed by other measures. in
cluding:
A tax system that would "ab-
sorb larger part of the total
national income than did the
World War II tax system"
Adequate enforcement machin-
cry for current price controls to
assure the public that no one is
getting rich by disregarding con-
trolls"
Budget and monetary regula-
tions on spending power That
would "curtail temptations" to buy
or sell above ceiling prices.
Need Spirit of Compliance.
In addition, the economists say,
the public must show spirit of
compliance with controls, and
interest groups must accept ball
ance of controls.
Prof. Albert G.. Hart Of Colum-
bia University, wrote the report in
consultation with John Maurice

neighbor from Scarsdale, N. Y,
lay dead-apparent victims of a
love triangle dating back year.
Plucky Robert LIE Roy, jr., stood
beside his fathers bleeding body
and telephoned police.
Then he hurried to his younger
brother and sister to shield them
from the grim tragedy.
The scene was the swank, two

Weekend Visitor.
Mr.. Westlund, who lived with
his wife and daughter in the
apartment building occupied by
the LIE Roy family in Scarsdale,
was visiting for the week end.
He and the lie Roy couple had
been drinking when the shooting
occurred.
Undersheriff Arnold Pigorsh said
lie Roy first killed Mr.. Westlund
and his wife, then put the muzzle
Of the .32-caliber rifle in his own
mouth and pulled the trigger.
The deaths were ruled a double
murder and suicide.
A longhand note signed by LIE
Roy said his wife admitted in
fidelity on several occasions with

LIE Roy, former president of
the Paper Corp. of America,
headed Michigan tire distribut-

manager for Fisk Tires.

Young LIE Roy told Mr.. Pigorsh
he heard a noise outside his bed
room window and saw his father
carrying a rifle.
Dad, what are you doing out
there?" he called.
You remember the trouble your
mother had with Mr.. Westlund in
New York;" He said his father
replied, and then promised:
I'm not going to do anything"
The boy said he then went back
to sleep. but was awakened by a
rife blast. Going upstairs he
found Westlund lying face down
on the hallway floor.
His mother, later found clad in
black lace underwear and a white
silk dressing gown, was crouched
over Mr.. Westlund's body, he said.
His father, standing in the kitchen,
shouted at him:
Go back to your room. won't
hurt your mother
The boy said he left again, but
shortly after, heard three more
shots.
Running back to the, kitchen, he
found his parents bodies sprawled
on the floor. He called police,

Brownie in 18Th Start
Cuts Off CIeveIand's S
Winning String al 13
picture on Page A-15.)
By Jock Hand
Associated Press Sports Writer


Tommy Byrne. a hard-luck guy
from way back, found No. 13 the
charm to interrupting Cleveland's S
drive toward the American League
pennant
The ex-Yankee. shunted to the
last place Browns in mid-June,
made his 18th start of the season
yesterday. 1t conceded with a 49,
game Cleveland winning string
The result was rough on the In
dians, whose lead was reduced to
1la games by a 40 loss.
No Cleveland club ever won
more than 13 in a row. The 1912
Indians got that far in May be-
fore Boston dumped them. The
current Tribe tied that mark
Wednesday night.
Byrne took complete charge by
driving home all four runs off
loser Mike Garcia before he left
the game with a sore back in
the eighth. Duane Pillette fin
ished the shutout job on Cleve-
land, which hadn't lost since
August l.
Lead Cut by Full Game.
The So New York victory at
Washington slashed a full game
of the Indians lead. Both of
the other flrst-division clubs lost
Boston to Philadelphia, 1912,
and Chicago to Detroit. 81.
There were faint STRINGS of
hope for a belated race in the
National League after New York
knocked off Brooklyn, 2-1, for a
series sweep and a six-game win
ming streak. The Dodger lead, how
ever, still measured ga games
with 43 to play.
st. Louis broke loose with six
runs in the seventh to trim Pitts
burgh. 9-6, and Chicago exploded
/ four in the ninth to whip Cincin-
natl, "a, in the only night game
in the majors. Boston and Phila-
delphia were not scheduled.
| Byrne's performance against
Cleveland was a super job. Always
plagued by wildness. he handed out
only four walks. Until he left in
the eighth he had allowed only two
hits. One of the hits was a double
by Larry Dolby who pulled muscle
in his left leg on the play.
! Byrne's Single Opens Scoring.
1t was Byrne's two-run single
with the bases full in the second
inning that opened the scoring
Byrne grounded out in the fourth
but drove home another run and
his single in the sixth added the
final score.
Philadelphia climbed all over the
Red Sox pitchers for IA hits, in
Guiding Zeke Zernial's 25th home
run. Clyde Vollmer gave Boston
its only runs off Bobby Shantz
with a two-run homer. his 21st
Ray Scarborough was the loser.
Dizzy Trout was the big noise
in the Tigers triumph over the
White Sox. He gave up only six
hits and beat Joe Dobson with
