L.T. OLDS.FISHER. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1963 (Richard C. Hottelet substituting) Republican Opposition was beaten down on Capitol Hill late today and the House approved President Kennedy's II-billion dollar tax cut. Passage came after a Republica,z effort to amend the measure - was defeated 226 to 199. This would have prohibited tax reductions unless the President promised to keep future federal spending below the leveh now anticipated. If and whe,a the bill becomes fully effective, it will mean federal income tax relief for practically all Americans. But the Prospects for fatter pay checks in January are not yet bright. The Senate is not likely to touch the tax cut measure for weeks at the earliest because it will soon be embroiled in a long ci il rights debate. SENA TE The Senali In estigalio11s Sub committ ee opened its hearing on syndicated crime today, will, Allor,rey- General Robert Kennedy the lead-off witness. Mr. Kenned) appealed to Congress for more powerful legal i eapons lo fight the "Pri ate government of organized c · rime". He asked for the power to r,se wiretap e vi den c e and th e freedom to gr an t wit n es s cs i m m u n it y from their testimon . y. The man who brought about this Senate in estigation, former Cosa Nostro member Joseph Valaclri, didn't testify today. He's still under strict security guard somewhere in Washington. He broke a 33-year-old oath of silence last year. and told Federal officials all he knew about the crime leaders he once served. The subcommittee will hear his story sometime next week . INTRODUCTION TO TAPE It's t i me now to hear our nightl y report from Lowell Thomas - this one concerning the possible movement of refugees to our 49th state. Lowell ... Tibetans' a fei·r of them -- are still ma k 1n th ir \ • y throu g h t ose lofty passes trying to get away from the iron heel of the Chinese Reds. There are now between ei hty and a hundred thousand of these refugees on the Indian side of the Himalayas. Some time ago Colonel Ilia Tolstoy, who is an American by the way, came up with a suggestion that a few thousand of these people be transported to Alaska. The Colonel thought that Alaska might be an ideal place for Tibetans. Through Lowell Jr. , who 1s 1n Alaska, and Bill Snedden, Editor of the Fairbanks Daily News~ 1ner, I have Just heard that a thousand of these Tibetans may be taken to our ., , Forty-Ninth tate, taken there along with some of their yanks. After all, th J : . 1s one of the hardiest do me sticated animals 1n the world. : .:ay e they woul d flou rish in laska . Colonel Tolstoy 1s assisted 1n ·1 hat ·1 e 1s doing by a you ng man from Greenwich, Connecticut, David · cCabe • \t 0 for years has been an enthusiastic student of Tibetan culture. T Dave 1cCabe is in Alaska now making a first hand study of the situation. Be believes the Tibetans, if they settle in our far northern State, may turn out to be . ideal for developing the meat industry of Alaska. Maybe Cattle crossed with the Tibetan yak. . . . Scientists tell us that Central Asians came across t'rom Siberia to Aladka ten tholl$and years ago. This time if they come, they'll be flying half way •round the world by Jet to get there.
