Most people here have an
idea that the Kennedy ad-
miniStration's troubles and
the downturn in business &C
tually began when the Presi-
dent in April, 1862, asSailed
the steel executives for try
ing to raise prices. Yet many
Of the remedies being pro-
posed today to help prevent
a serious depression were be-
ing suggested, to no avail,
month after month in the
year 1861 by businessmen
generally.
This correspondent talked
with many economists and
other well-informed men in
the business world and wrote
several dispatches through
out 1861 setting forth the
reasons why businessmen
were uneasy. Here are some
excerpts that tell the story:
March Is, 1861: THE cur
rent recession is supposed to
be touching bottom, and
signs Of an upturn' are be-
ing noted even as anti-re-
cession measures of various
kinds have yet to be consid-
cred by Congress. But the
real question before the coun-
try is what is going to be
done to prevent the recess
sion that seems sure to come
after the brief period of eco
nomic recovery which lies
ahead.
This is but another way
Of saying that the Kennedy
administration, despite its
large number Of economic
advisers, has failed to come
to grips with the basic cause
OF the present recession and
the certain cause of more
receSsions to come.
While tens of billions of
dollars could be borrowed this
year by business for indus
trial projects in this coun-
try-for replacement Of plant
and modernization Of ma
chinery-such spending is be-
ing held up. The two main
reasons for this are that long
term interest rates are too
high and the administration
and Congress have failed to
do anything about laws COW
ering the Interpretation al
lowances."
March 80, 1861: Plenty Of
words have been issued on
how to pep up the economy
by spending more money for
social welfare but the true
causes of unemployment-the
failure to provide tax incen-
tives in manufacturing in

Carlos Todd, refugee Cuban
newsman has told a Senate
committee some United States
reporters appear to slant their
writing, television or radio re-
ports in favor Of the Fidel Cas-

Mr.. Todd aimed his remarks
chiefly at three men who went
to Cuba recently. But in re-
Spouse to questionings by Sam
Scott. a lawyer for the Senate
Internal Security Subcommit-

attitude he said appeared to
favor the Communist regime in
Havana.
Senator Heating, Republican
Of New York, presiding, de-
clared that Mr.. Todd's COM

implications, and it is i'm

conclusions until the saff has

Mr.. Todd runs a Cuban in

Special Police
Track Sa+mar
Rabbi S Killer

NEW YORK (JTA) - Special
squads of police and detectives
were pursuing a number of clues
in an effort to trace the men who
beat to death 55-year-old Rabbi
Bernard Eisdorfer, a prominent
disciple of the Satmar Rebbe.
A probe was under way of all
facets of the crime and its after
maths, including an investigation
as to the type of action taken eth
er by the police or the city hos
pitals after Rabbi Eisdorfer had
been found fatally injured.
According to police, two youths
aged between II and 20 are being
sought. The men had beaten Rab-
bi Eisdorfer and robbed him of
large sum of money, repeatedly
$4,000, which he was carrying as
donations to several yeshivot in
honor of the forthcoming celebra-
ton of Simchat Torah. He died four
days later.
In the Williamsburg section of
Brooklyn, where thousands OF Sat
mar adherentS live, the usual Sim
chat Torah celebrations were
tinged with sorrow among many
Hassidim belonging not only to the
Satmar group but also to other
Hassidic factions. There was also
much bitterness, many Jews IN
Brooklyn complaining that they
have not received sufficient police
protection.

A RESIDENT of Phoenix for the
past 35 years, Brown came here
from his native Detroit, where, at
the age of 18, he had become the
youngest graduate lawyer in Mich
igan history. He was just 81 when
he was admitted to the bar.
In 1881 he shifted his base of
operations to Arizona where his
successful handling of an insur-
ance case led to widespread re-
forms in insurance legislation.
There followed several years as
assistant to Attorney General Joe
Conway. During this period, Brown
also became interested in cattle
ranching and was among the first
developers of Paradise and Deer
Valleys.
More recently, he has gained
wide repute as builder of apart
ment houses and luxury hotels, all
characterized by his daringly origi-
nal design.
ACTIVE IN behalf of many hui
manitarian causes, Brown was the
prime force b hind the new
center. A leader of the Israel Bond
campaign since it's inception in
1851, he served as chairman of the
successful 1860 drive.
In a special communication ad-
dressed to friends and colleagues
of Brown, Phil w. Taxman, gen.
eral chairman for Israel Bonds,
called for fullest participation in
the Dec. 2 function as a means of
Identification with ISraePS upbuild-
ing and an expression of our gem
uine debt of gratitude to Maurice
Brown for all of his many signifi-
cant contributions to the progress
of our community"

many people who drag them
selves around at about so per
cent efficiency day after day
simply because they need
periods of rest and relaxation
to neutralize the pressures
that build up during the work
day whether it is in an office,
store, shop or in the kitchen.
The body welcomes rest
Just as the heart does be-
tween beats. And the best
way to get it is by developing
the ability to take catnaps.
After lunch, or before din

for the evening. 1t is an
amazing restorative.

little profit for Mr.. Goodman.

it got up speed a PIT boat came
dashing out to us. 1t had been
contacted at Funafuti by radio.
Bartek and myself were low

died it over to the boat.
The first thing they gave me
was a Navy mug of beef
broth, good and hot. Then two
mugs of water. Finally, the

I've got to shut you off" That

because I was so dehydrated,
any large amount of water

and let me have a couple of
