Walt Dimey'l "20,000 Unquei Under The Sea" and "The Lien" MbUKUKU Sharp Rise in Gross National Product Noted WASHINGTON (UPI) - A government economic expert describes as an "evebrow raiser" a sharp rise in the gross national product (GNP) between the second and third quarters of this year. The GNP the total value of goods and services in the coun tryhit an annual rate of $588.5 billion in the third quarter, it has been disclosed. This was S8.9 billion above the second quarter. Gardner Ackley, a member of President Kennedy's Council of Economic Advisers, gave the "eyebrow raiser" description of the rise in an appearance be fore the joint congressional eco nomic committee at which the GNP rate was disclosed. Ackley said it was the largest gain for any quarter since the last three months of 1961. Some Promise Said Lost Chairman Walter W. Heller of the President's council pre dicted some time ago that the GNP rate would reach $600 bil lion some time next year. How ever, Heller said in a speech last week that some economic indicators were not as promis ing now as they had been. Ackley and the joint commit tee said the big GNP rise re flected increased outlays for state and local governments, consumers and investments. Ackley said it proved Ken nedy was right last January "in flatly predicting a sustained ad vance in 1963 with no reces sion." The increase was offset, how ever, by a boost in prices. The congressional report said higher prices would regulate the in crease to $5.9 billion. Neuberger Urges Income Tax Credit WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sen. Maurine B. Neuberger, D-Ore., urged Tuesday that taxpayers be given a 7 per cent federal income tax credit for income tax payments to states. Mrs. Neuberger introduced legislation to amend federal tax laws to allow taxpayers to re duce their payments to the fed eral government by 7 per cent. The deduction could not exceed the amount actually paid i n state income taxes. The Oregon Democrat said voters in her state had turned down a state income tax in crease by a "stunning" majori tv in a referendum vote. This, she said, suggested that state taxes already were as high as the citizens "were willing to pay." The result, she added, would be a sharp cutback i n welfare and school funds. Home Renounces ifish Titles LONDON (UPI) Prime Minister Lord Home renounced one of the oldiest titles in the nation today to run for Parlia ment as a commoner and if successful direct his new gov ernment personally from the House of Commons.

"When we force correct usaga upon students, who are not themselves cultivated or edu cated, we perform an act some what analogous to dressing a tramp in a tuxedo," Kreisman explained. "All we often achieve by em phasizing usage is to force tha student to withdraw from at tempts at serious or complex communication into as simple and mechanically error - frea responses as possible. This, then helps to defeat our entire en terprise." Births EVEREST To Mr. and Mrs. James H., 11 N. West St., Yre ka, Calif., Oct. 21, 1963, a boy, 5'i pounds, at Rogue Valley hospital.
