Probe Eyes Sub Repair PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (UPP - The Navy called a news confer once for today to discuss work done on the nuclear submarine Thresher just before her fatal dive with 129 men aboard. Authorities said the conference will be held by Capt. John B Guerry, production officer at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard where Thresher was built and over hauled before its final voyage. The Navy said Edmund T. Scar poni, foreman-pipefitter at the shipyard, also will participate in the news conference. Several witnesses testified ear lier before a court of inquiry in vestigating the April 10 disaster that work at t h e shipyard on Thresher had been "sloppy" and that parts had been put in backwards. The court of inquiry was to meet today behind closed doors, with a Marine guard outside, to study further the highly classified design of Thresher. men earlier, discussing her hus band's attempt to play the March 14 engagement in Tulsa.

Dillon Sees Tax Cut Boosting Local Revenues WASHINGTON lUPD - Treas ury Secretary Douglas Dillon ad vised Congress today (hat a $10 billion federal tax cut should boos! state and local tax reve nues by $2.9 billion a year by in creasing personal income. The Treasury estimate, listing combined state-local revenue in creases ranging from $4 million in Alaska to $410 million in New York, was made for the Senate House Economic Committee headed by Sen. Paul H. Douglas, D-lll. The estimate was based op. a committee staff guess that a $10 billion tax cut would hike the gross national product CG.'P by about $40 billion a year. Dillon's projection of increased revenues $1.5 billion for the 50 states and $1.4 billion for all local governments would become true in 1965 when the "full im pact" of the federal tax reduc tion would be felt. It would be accomplished, the Treasury said, without changes or additions in state or local tax rates. Douglas called this "heart ening news" for state and local taxpayers. Using the committee's $40 bil lion estimate of increased GNP, the Treasury figured that expand ed economic activity would in crease personal income by about $30 billion. On the basis of historic trends. the Treasury estimated, state awl local tax revenue annually on this amount of income would amount to $2.9 billion by 19t5. The increases in both state and tocal revenues would amount to 7 per cent of the last year's col lections 1962 tor tne slates ana 1961 for local governments.
