V. rXii ft. The Federal Bureau of Investigation today arrested Florida Circuit Court Judge Samuel S. Smith in Lake City, Columbia County, on a felony charge of distributing 1,600 pounds of marijuana. Smith, 54, is accused of arranging for the marijuana, which had been seized by the Suwannee County Sheriff's Department, to be transferred from the sheriff's office to a municipal dump where it was to be picked up by another man.

THIS TRANSFER took place Tuesday, said Arthur F. Nehr-bass, special FBI agent in Jacksonville. But, FBI agents and Marion and Alachua county deputies chased the pickup car, they said. After the chase, they arrested Richard E. Bradley, 22, of Alachua, on a marijuana distribution charge.

SMITH was arrested after a search of a metal shed near Alachua produced most of the stolen marijuana. Agents said the arrests followed an investigation that had been conducted for several months. The probe will continue, they said. Smith was scheduled to appear later today before a U.S. Magistrate or U.S.

"I see no advantage in a tax cut at the present time," Burns said. "My mind on the subject, however, is by no means closed." PRESIDENT-elect Jimmy Carter has said he will consider a tax reduction next year if the 0 omic slowdown continues. Some of Carter's advisers have expressed concern that the Federal Reserve Board could offset the benefits by tightening the nation's money supply. Burns has been trying to head off a possible conflict with Carter on the matter.

President Ford will send to Congress in January his proposal to cut taxes across the board by $10 billion, with an increase in the Social Security tax rate that would mean a net cut of $8 billion. The chairman made his statements in a speech prepared for the United States League of Savings Associations In New York. His remarks came as the government reduced its estimate of growth in the nation's economic output to, 3.8 per cent during the fall quarter. THAT RATE Is just below the level generally considered necessary to whittle down unemployment, which was at 7.9 per cent of the labor force in October with 7.6 million Americans out of work. Referring to a tax cut, Burns said he "will weigh the issue carefully" if the economy appears to need such a stimulus and if there are "economies" in federal spending.

While some of Carter's advisers have said they would, prefer a one-time tax rebate, Burns said he would prefer abroad-based permanent tax reduction for both business and individuals, similar to a tax cut enacted in the early 1960s. Carter, on the other hand, has said he will consider tax cuts aimed at benefiting low and middle-income workers and has said nothing about cutting taxes to benefit business. CARTER HAS said he will meet with Burns next week to discuss the economy, and has said he hopes they can cooperate after he takes office as president. Burns has until January of 1978 before his term as chairman expires. Carter told a news conference Monday in Plains, "I've had communications from Mr.

Burns, who pledges cooperation with me during the next administration. I understand the autonomy of the Federal Reserve System, and would not like to eliminate that autonomy. I would like to get first hand a report from Mr. Burns about his prospects for next year, the amount of, the rate of increase of money availability for the next 12 months (Continued On Page 12-A, Col.

The man told the station to -tell police not to rush the home "or else she (the woman hostage) goes first." He said he did not want to hurt the woman, whose identity was not immediately known. About an hour later, the man released the woman and allowed Times-Union Reporter Michael Shore to enter the house.

The pair robbed Bronke-Smith Jewelers shortly after 10:30 a.m. They were chased by police and apparently abandoned their car. While trying to force their way into the DiMatteis home, one of the gunmen was shot and apparently killed, and two policemen wounded. One officer underwent surgery. ROCHESTER, N.Y.

(UPI) A gunman was reported killed today, two policemen were wounded and a woman was taken hostage then exchanged for a newspaper reporter in a jewelry store holdup attempt in suburban Irondequoit. Police said the exchange of gunfire occurred when two men tried to break into a residence near the jewelry store apparently to escape capture. THEY SAID one of the gunmen apparently was killed and the two policemen wounded in the gunfire exchange at the Robert DiMatteis residence. The surviving gunman first took a woman hostage, then released her and took a Rochester Times-Union reporter in exchange. The surviving gunman spoke with Radio Station WHAM by telephone from within the resi Receiver Appointed Anxious to get WSWB-TV, Channel 35, back on the air, Orange-Osceola Circuit Court Judge Frederick T.

Pfeiffer today ordered that Edwin Starr, vice-president of Accommodation Services, Inc. be appointed receiver of the insolvent television station. Starr could not be reached this morning but said last week that, as receiver, he would try to get Channel 35 back on the air as soon as he could. AFTER HAGGLING several days over the wording of the order, attorneys for Turner Communications owner of the station's transmitter site, and Sun World Broadcasters, which holds the station's Federal Communications Commission license, agreed today that Starr should take immediate possession of the station's sole asset its license. While the station is in receivership, Turner has to file a $1 million letter of credit with the Orange County Clerk's office as a buffer against any damage or loss to the station during legal negotiations.

The letter of credit, to be issued by the First National Bank of Chicago through a corresponding Florida bank acts as a bank loan. Turner pays the loan premium. SUN WORLD'S attorney, arguing that Starr should be appointed immediately, told Pfeiffer during today's hearing that the station's license expires Nov, 30. "If someone doesn't file for an extension the license collapses," Raymer E. Maguire Jr.

said. The receiver can sell the station, operate it, or liquidate its assets. Resale Racket Follow Up Asked TALLAHASSEE Wl Attyl Gen.

Shevin said Wednesday In a letter to FTC Chairman Calvin J.

All answers confidential." THE MAN agreed to tell his story to a Chronicle reporter on the condition that he and the mother remain anonymous.

He was the last of his family line and he said that when the ad was placed he wanted a child his child to carry on his family name. He chose artificial insemination because, he said, it would be immoral for him to have a sexual relationship outside of marriage to father a child. NEWS STORIES about his plight brought 181 letters from women as far away as Bangladesh, he said. Letters were sent to an ad number at the Chronicle, and the man hired a lawyer and a doctor to take care of selection and the actual impregnation. The man was never to meet the mother of his child.

The woman selected was described only as an attractive, blond, unmarried office worker living in the San Francisco Bay area. She had never had a child before.

2) Ex-CBS President, Wife Die In Fire NEW YORK (UPI) Former CBS Television president Louis G. Cowan, who developed "The Question" and then left the network in the wake of the quiz show scandals, was killed with nis wife early today in a fire in their East Side penthouse. The cause of the fire was under investigation, but a police spokesman said it did not appear suspicious. After leaving CBS in 1959, Cowan held prestigious academic posts at Brandeis and Columbia universities. Switlntl Stir Itrvlcn TALLAHASSEE Senate President Lew Brantley agreed today with his two finance chairmen that the legislature will have to raise taxes next year to offset inflation's impact on education and other state programs.

Jack Gordon, D-Miami Beach, chairman of the finance, tax and claims committee, and appropria-t i chairman Phil Lewis, D-West Palm Beach, predicted Wednesday that tax increases are inevitable in 1977 if the state is to maintain existing programs. BRANTLEY refused to commit himself to specific tax proposals, but said increases on whisky, beer and cigarettes are likely. "Based on my conversations with staff, higher education, community colleges and K-12 (the public schools) will have to have somewhere between $145 million and $170 million in new dollars to fuel them. We just don't have that kind of money without higher taxes," Brantley said. Gordon said on Wednesday the legislature will consider an increase of at least 1 cent in the sales tax, higher corporate income taxes and boosts in gasoline, liquor, and cigarette taxes.

The income tax, which is i bited under the state constitution, is expected to be considered by the 19 78 constitutional revision commission. Gordon said current revenue projections indicate the state will fall $28 million short of meeting its $5 billion budget during the current fiscal year. However, indications are the deficit will be met with surplus funds, requiring no rollback of expenditures. In 1974, the cabinet ordered a $105 million cut in spending and in 1975 a $45 million cut. GORDON EXPRESSED disagreement with Brantley's highest priority the imposition of $750 million in new taxes so the state can take over full support of (Continued On Page 12-A, Col.

S) U.S. Growth Estimate Sliced A S-H I Wl The government today reduced its estimate of growth in the nation's economic output to 3.8 per cent during the fall quarter, or just below the level generally considered necessary to whittle down unemployment. The Commerce Department had estimated last month that the Gross National Product the total output of goods and services grew at an annual rate of 4 per cent in the third quarter. The revised figures show that the original estimate was dragged down by a poorer than expected performance in foreign trade. THE DEPARTMENT originally had estimated a surplus for trade in goods and services at an annual rate of $5.9 billion, but later reports reduced the estimate to a $3.4 billion surplus.

Commerce also reduced its original estimate of inflation during the July-September period, i Inflation totaled 4.2 per cent at an annual rate during the quarter instead of the original estimate of 4.4 per cent. In the previous quarter, infla- tion was 5.2 per cent at an annual rate while the economic output growth rate was 4.5 per cent. In the first three months of the year, the economic output registered a 9.2 per cent advance. From June to unemployment has advanced from 7.3 per cent to, 7.9 per cent..
