PRICE OF FOOD PUSHES LYING COSTS UP

WASHINGTON H3 - Higher prices for foods pushed living costs Up three-tenths of one per cent in February to a new record.
 It was the first increase in the governments living costs index in six months and the largest increase since last July.
 Tn announcing it Tuesday, Robert Myers, Deputy Commissioner of Labor Statistics, said however that the increase did not appear to sig nifty a new price uptrend. He fore cast continued stability but said March living costs probably also will show some increases.
 The February increase put the Consumers Price Index at 104.8 per cent of the 1957-59 base period. This was nine-tenths of one per cent higher than a year earlier.
 Food prices rose during the month by six-tenths of one per cent, and were the most important cause for the overall increase. Food prices had been expected to go down instead of up, but Myers said they were influenced by winter storms in southern states, particu- larly in Florida and Texas.

GUN BATTLE BREAKS
 OUT ON ALGERIA'S
 FIRST INDEPENDENCE DAY

ALGIERS lF = A violent gun battle in the heart of Oran's Eu- repean city yesterday shattered Algeria's celebration of it's first official indendence holiday.
 More than 100 dead and wound ed were reported in the first hour of the fighting, which swept the former stronghold of European Secret Army Organization terror ists.
 Two hours after the fighting started, gunfire still rattled over the city.
 The gunfire panicked tens of thousands of Moslems in the midst of delirious celebration. An off cial of the city's main hospital said all the casualties taken there were Moslems. But number of Europeans also were killed or wounded.
 A Moslem policeman said the firing came from holdout terrorists of the European Secret Army, whose leaders had bowed to AL gerian independence after months of murder and arson. .
 The Gran violence, first since Algeria became formally independ- ent Tuesday, erupted against a back drop of a power struggle for leadership of the newborn nation.
 In Algiers, Nationalist Premier Youssef Ben Khedda took the salute from 500 battle-hardened Algerian guerrillas. But the mili- tary show underscored the shaky position of Ben Khedda's moderate regime.

Japanese Industry Invited to Expand Onto US. Soil

TOKYO EP = The Kennedy ad- ministration has invited Japanese industry to expand onto American soil, but the prospect of any takers appears slim.
 A high ranking US. Embassy official confirmed yesterday that suggestion that Japanese invest in building factories in the United States was forwarded "sevaral months ago''to to the Japanese Foreign Ministry. He said no re- sponse has vet been made
 The American official said the suggestion was contained in a communication which called at tention to the possibilities of at tractive investment in the states. y
 The move is part of broad campaign to lure investment capi- tal from all the industrialized coun- tries to the United States. Secretary of Commerce Luther Hodges last year set up an office devoted ex- clusively 10 attempting to attract foreign capital.
 In the background is the per sistent deficit in the US. balance of payments, which sees more money leave the United States each year than goes in. If Europeans and the Japanese send over funds to build factories these investments would reduce the payments deficit
 The Foreign Ministry said the matter had to be studied by vari- ous ministries as well as business circles before a position is taken.
 Japan, to hold overseas markets, has expanded into Southeast Asia, and Latin America, but there has been no indication it needs Amer ican plants to maintain it's $1.5 bil- lion export business to the United States.
 The only sizeable Japanese manufacturing venture in the Unit ed States is the Alaska Pulp Co.,, government-backed firm that operates a mill at Sitka, Alaska.

Economy Probers Hear
3 Optimistic Reports

there has been 90 much talk
about the possibility Of quick
tax cuts that q decision to wait
might increase consumed pes
simism and heighten chances
for q recession.
Mona Dingle, economist for
the Federal Reserve Board, tes-
titled that surveys indicate
consumers buying plans last
month were at or close to the
peak levels reached earlier in
the recovery.
Autos Down
Plans to buy autos possibly
weakened very slightly from
the high April level. she said.
Plans to buy household durable
goods picked up In the Janu-
ary-April period and strength
ened further from April to
July, she said, and plans to
buy houses have shown little
change since earlier this year.
Administration witnesses be-
fore the two committees were
expected to paint o gray pic
t1re Of the economy, acknowl-
edging sluggishness and con-
ceding the possibility Of q de-
cline.
President Kennedy intends to
decide soon whether to propose
emergency tax cuts this year
or follow his original plan to
recommend action next year on
a package Of reforms and re-
auctions.
Formula Is Issue
There are strong indications
that he viii decide to wait. De-
bate over tax cuts, therefore,
is shifting from the question of
timing to arguments about the
kind Of tax reductions that
would help the economy most.

Business leaders, with con-
siderable support in the admin

Star staff Writer


The Senate-House Economic
Committee heard optimistic
appraisals Of the economic out
look from three experts today.
This testimony, by econo-
mtsts from outside the Ken
nedy administration, further
darkened the dim prospects for
emergency tax cuts to stimu-
late the economy this year.
But President Kennedy's
Council Of Economic Advisers,
which Is worried about q re-
cession, was scheduled to tes-
tify later today. The House
Ways and Means Committee
planned 10 hear the views Of
Commerce Secretary Hodges
and Labor Secretary Goldberg
in closed sessions.
Douglas Greenwald, econo-
mist for the McGraw-HiII Pub
fishing Co., New York, gave the
Economic Committee the most
hopeful assessment Of the
economy and declared that
there is no need for q tax cut
now.
Investments Steady
Mr.. Greenwald said McGraw-
Hill surveys indicate that busi-
nessmen have not reduced their
investment plans significantly
since the stock market decline
and the upsurge Of recession
talk.
He said a June survey showed
that businessmen planned to
increase spending for new
plants and equipment this year
by 1914 per cent over 1851.
This compared with a planned
increase Of los. per cent in the
spring survey and 4 per cent
last fall.
Capital investment inten-
tons by business constitute an
element Of strength In the
business outlook" Mr.. Green
valid said. adding that there
is no evidence that loss Of "busi-
ness confidence" has caused
retrenchment.
Mr.. Greenwald said corpora
tions have enough cash to In
crease investment without fur
ther assistance, but agreed that
a tax cut would provide some
stimulus by boosting profit
margins. But there Is no need
for such stimulation now, he
said.
Boom Falls Short
The Commerce Departments
broader survey Of business in
veStment plans. conducted last
spring, indicated an increase
Of about 8 per cent over 1861.
When the administration last
January predicted booming
economic activity throughout
1862, the projections called for
a Is per cent increase in busi-
ness investment.
George Katona Of the Uni
versity Of Michigan testified
his surveys of consumers in
dicated moderate improvement
Of attitudes and economic ex-
pectations from February, 1861,
to February, 1862, followed by
q leveling off between February
and May, 1862.
Consumer attitudes, which
are important in predicting
consumer spending reflect "the
sluggishness of the recovery
from the l960-61 recession"
Mr.. Katona said.
Especially in upper-income
brackets, he continued, "the
consumers mood is sober" be-
cause Of worry about recessions,
unemployment and the cold
war.
He said he expects this
months survey to indicate
more consumer caution and
uncertainty" partly because of
the stock market break in May.
Sees No Recession
Although no recession In the
consumer sector Of the economy
is likely next winter, Mr.. Ka-
tona said, tax reductions would
stimulate consumption.
He said there Is some merit
to the argument that tax cuts
should wait until next year.
