1967 14, lW A r. xl PLTtermain 4 r- i 1 mm Volpe Tax Proposal Asks $100 Million For Welfare Costs 1 'i yv 6 few-" By ROBERT B. HANRON SU8 Reporter IT'S REALLY ALL OVER AS EARTH MOVER PLAYS IN FENWAY'S LEFT FIELD (Willianj Ryerson Photo) While this will hit taxpayers in the pocket, it should also ease the real property levy in local communities, which will be relieved of paying their share of welfare. Cost of picking up welfare costs now paid by cities and towns is estimated at $60 million. The remaining $40 million will be used to meet rising state costs in other areas.

In his message, Volpe is expected to recommend amendments to the welfare reorganization in several areas. These changes would be designed to bring- state welfare regulations in line with Federal standards and eliminate the possibility of losing Federal funds for welfare because of technicalities. A source in the governor's office said the welfare bill in its present form could affect the status of some town boards of selectmen that also act as boards of welfare. The same source said Volpe has vetoed a proposal to eliminate the Federal income tax as a deduction on the state income tax because labor opposes Gov. Volpe will submit to' the Legislature Monday a $100 million tax program, the bulk of which will be used to support the new statewide welfare reorganization program.

In his special message, the governor will recommend that: The present 3.075 percent tax on earned income be increased to 4 percent. The 'present 7.8 percent levy on unearned income be upped to 8 percent. Taxes on corporate income be hiked from the present 6.75 percent to 7.5 percent. Estimates are that the increase in income taxes would yield an additional $70 million for the state and the jump in corporate taxes another $15 million. Balance of the $100 million would be paid through methods under study by the governor's tax experts over the week-end.

The methods will be divulged Monday morning. The new revenue is needed if the state is to assume the local costs of welfare as it agreed to under the reorganization bill. ner in any way the club wished including a ticker tape parade. The Red Sox pointed out the team had scattered after Thursday's final game of the World Series. Collins then set aside the week, beginning Sunday "to pay tribute to this Cinderella team which has provided some of the most glorious moments in Boston's long and honored sports history." AFTERMATH Page 16 Part of Fenway Park has gone with Carl Yastrzemski.

Mayor Collins has proclaimed next week "Red Sox Appreciation Week." And Gov. Volpe has cited the Red Sox as "capturing the hearts of a nation." That's how Boston dug out from under the disappointment of defeat in the World Series. Friday, several yards of Fenway Park's left field where Yastrzemski romped as the player-of-the-year was loaded on to a truck and delivered to his home in Lynnfield. It will become part of his lawn. Each year Fenway's turf is removed from the area where the temporary stands are installed for the pro football season.

The crews moved in Friday and began their work. Mayor Collins' pronouncement came after hundreds of phone calls and telegrams poured into his office urging an official celebration for the Red Sox.

"There is a fire and the question is whether the fire should be fought or whether it should be allowed to take its course without any arm being raised to By DARIUS S. JHABVALA Clk IN Bri UNITED NATIONS Australian Foreign Minister Paul Hasluck Friday labeled critics of U.S. bombings of North Vietnam as "victims of illusion or of prejudice" and "sensation mongers or propagandists." In one of the most eloquent and forthright statements made check its onrush," he declared. Hasluck pointed out that many countries demanded a halt to the U.S.

bombings of North Vietnam "but few, if any, references have been made to the constant movement of regular units of the North Vietnamese Army into the territory of South Vietnam."

Tlmf WMhlnrUa Pit Birth Control Splits Laity At Parley By SHEILA WALSH United Press Inlernsllonsl ROME The birth control issue erupted into hot debate in the International Catholic Laymen's Congress Friday. The congress' working group on family life split into angrily opposed factions one for an outspoken appeal for lifting of the church's ban on contraception, and another for a mildly worded call for "responsible parenthood." Observers called it the most outspoken public debate ever by a Catholic group meeting under Vatican sponsorship in Rome. The Synod of Bishops meeting at the Vatican has been prohibited from discussing birth control although Pope Paul VI has asked its members for their opinions in writ-.

ing. No such silence was imposed on the nearly 2500 laymen holding a one-week congress just outside the Vatican walls. Supporters of a liberalization in the church's birth control stand were the most vocal Friday. Mrs. Patricia Crowley of Chicago, 111., who with her husband was on Pope Paul's Birth Control Study Commission, said, "The big need in the church today is a clarification of the stand of the church on family planning.

CATHOLICS Page 4 A SH I NGTON Lord Harlech, the former British ambassador to the United States, has been invited" to accompany Jacqueline Kennedy and a partv of friends to Cambodia in November, the Washington Post learned Friday night. The former Sir David Ormsby-Gore confirmed that he is "hoping to" join the former first lady and a traveling entourage of "other old friends" of New Frontier days to visit the 8ncient temple ruins of Angkor Wat. The plans are only tentative at the moment, however. The group will include Washington columnist Charles Barllett and his wife, Martha, and New York lawyer Mike Forestal, who was Asian specialist on the National Security Council under Kennedy. Mrs.

Kennedy is scheduled to leave Nov. 2. The Bartletts are already in the Far East and will join her in Cambodia. Lord Harlech plans, at the moment, to conclude the current speaking tour which has taken him all around the United States and then fly home to England. If he goes on the trip, Lord Harlech said, "I'll fly to Cambodia from there." Lord Harlech's name has been linked romantically with Mrs.

Kennedy's recently because of a Women's Wear Daily gossip column item. HARLECH Pate 12 AiiorUtfd Fren SAIGON Five hundred North Vietnamese troops attacked a battalion of U.S. Marines below the Demilitarized Zone Saturday under cover of the heaviest Communist shelling in four weeks, U.S. spokesmen reported. Twenty-three Marines were reported killed and 36 wounded in the assault and the shelling.

The battalion was based south of Con Thicn, the forward Marine post two miles below the DMZ which bore the brunt of last month's barrages. U.S. spokesmen said the ground fighting began before dawn but broke off later in the morning. U.S. planes and artillery struck back at the attackers but there was no report on enemy casualties.

United Press International reported 27 North Vietnamese killed in the first hours of fighting. In the new eruption of fighting along the DMZ, the Communist gunners hit the Marine outposts with 384 rounds of artillery in 24 hours, a Marine spokesman at Da Nang said. Damage reports were not available immediately. Since Sept. 25, when Communist gunners hit the Marine outpost at Con Thicn with 1000 rounds of artillery and mortar fire, the month-long siege of the outpost had begun tapering off to less than 100 rounds a day.

It was believed that most of the Marines' casualties were suffered in the ground fighting. Unofficial reports said 20 of the 23 Marine fatalities and 21 of the 30 wounded came during the ground i-sault by the North Vietnamese regulars. What Is It? HORACE D.

Jordan, the government's star witness in the trial of 18 men accused of conspiracy in the 1964 murders of three civil rights workers, was named Friday as one of the murderers. The sensational charge was made in an alleged confession to the FBI in 1964 by one of the defendants, Horace D. Barnctte. Barnctte's statement, introduced by the prosecution, was admitted in evidence after a long procedural wrangle in which defense lawyers claimed it was prejudicial. The statement named other defendants, but Federal District Court Judge W.

Harold Cox ordered all names be struck from it, save Bar-nette's and Jordan's.
