331 Million Persons, Bountiful Economy Visioned by 2,000 By JOSEPH D. HUTNYAN in vonr at annrox ima tely year, many of them entire der ol the centurv ment of waste water are the terials for scarce ones. Land use will have to be more efficient: includ ing such double use as hav ing range lane' and forests double as ouldooi- recrea tion areas. Ka:m land must be used v ith greater effi ciency. U'. ban planners must be careful to include parks and open spaces in the con tinuous cities that will stretch from Boston to Washington, from Buffalo to Milwaukee by 2000. Forestry planners must study methods of reducing tree losses and improving growth and replacement. More productive hybrids must be developed. Water must be used more efficienty; it will be wise to shift gradually "to ward higher value indus trial and municipal uses and away from the low-value use in irrigation agricul ture." Demands for energy to provide heat and power will triple by the end of the century; coal deposits ap pear ample but not oil and gas. Nuclear energy thus must he brought increasing ly into play. The economists cau tioned about use of pesti cides which could extermi nate wildlife; and warned of possible pollution of the atmosphere from automo bile and industrial wastes. Washington -WPIi-Twenty-live economists have taken a long look into the year 2,000 and come up with a forecast of a U. S. popula tion of 3:il million persons and a bountiful economy for everyone. The forecast was con tained in a 1,000-word re port issued today by a re search foundation called Resources for the Future, Inc. 'lhe report represents live years of work financed by Ford Foundation grants. The economists predicted their lore-cast on a lew big ifs, however. One is the as sumption that the cold war will continue lor the next t h e present temperature and that there will be no major depression during that time to scar the econ omy. . Another "if" is the point of the report - the bounti ful life at the turn of the 21st Century will depend on the condition of U. S. re sources. The report empha sizes the need lor wise planning. Some details ol the pic ture for the year 2,000: -More than two automo biles for every three per sons; compared with about one car for every three per sons now. -Americans will be build ing 4.2 million homes a ly of plastic. -Hall the electricity con sumed in this country will be produced by nuclear en ergy. -The labor force will have doubled Irom 73 mil lion to 142 million and will be contributing to a gross national product averaging 115,600 per worker. Thil increased number ol wage earners will be pay ing taxes on a national budget of halt a trillion dol lars a year The farm surplus will still be with us. The experts foresaw no "general running out ol re sources during the remain lor a long time thereafter." But they stressed that the good lite lor the year 2.000 will defend on wise use of resources. Water was seen as one of the major resource prob lems of the future. The ex perts said a serious water shortage threatens in t h e western United States. The West, they explained, has only a fifth as much water as the East "but its with drawal depletions arc four limes as large." The East also will have water problems, however, involving pollution. In creased storage capacity and more thorough treat two greatest needs, the economists said.

American Navy Patrol Plane Guides Warship Miami, Fla.-(Uprj-A British warship guided by a U. S. Navy patrol plane intercepted and captured a Cuban exile raiding party en route to Cuba late Sunday, it was reported today. A spokesman for the exile group ""The Cuban Anti-Communist Army," announced the interception and seizure here. He said the raiding unit was boarded by a detachment of British Negro marines under command of a white officer, and taken under escort lo Nas sau. First Case II was the first reported case of Anglo-American action to halt anti-Castro exile at tacks on Cuba since the new Washington policy, announced last Saturday. According to the Miami spokesman, identified only as "Dr. Bosch," the raider was one of two naval units en route to attack Cuban ship ping. He said the unidentified commander of the second raiding unit, still at large in the Caribbean, reported the seizure and said he would "not surrender to anybody." His ; 1-foot patrol craft, searching out a Soviet tank er reported in the vicinity, will "resist seizure, even by U.S. Navy units," the com mander reported. The seized craft was com manded by Maj. Evilio Duque, a former leader of anti-Castro guerrilla forces in the Sierra Escambray of Cuba. He had 16 men with him in his raid'ng party and a "Ia.-ge amount of arms," according to the spokesman. The new development coin cided with a "declaration o war" by a new cxilo under ground organization based in Mexico against all shipping with Cuba.
