nation's banks were under pressure today to take a very careful look before granting businessmen loans for plant expansion or new equipment The Federal Reserve System carrying on its so-far solitary willingness to act against inflation late yesterday urged its 6-200 member' banks to show in the rate of ex- Eansion loans and particularly usiness And in an unusual reminder in its instructions the Federal Reserve said member cooperation be kept in mind by the Federal Reserve banks in their extensions of ere dit to member banks through the discount THE THREAT was clear: Ove-renthusiastic lenders cannot expect to get unlimited Federal Reserve funds in order to lend more money to businessmen Administration sources meantime were hinting that President Johnson may ask Congress to suspend a special investment tax credit now available to businessmen rhis 'credit permits businessmen to deduct from their corporate bills 7 per cent of the amount over their normal average that they spend for plant expansion and new equipment SUSPENDING IT would have the same effect as the Federal move: The current high rate of business expansion considered a critical inflationary weakness in the economy by some experts would be slowed Sen Russell Long D-La chairman of the fenate finance committee introduced a bill Tuesday that would suspend the investment credit indefinitely endorsement would make it almost a sure bet for congressional approval although Republicans strongly oppose such a move Canadian Railroad Strike Ends Some Workers Still Reluctant OTTAWA Canadian trains started running over

oman The United -States officially opened the drive yesterday within a few hours of statement that he would not be available when his five-year term expires Nov 3 Among his reasons frustration over the inability to act as peacemaker particularly in Viet Nam was his basic belief that no man should serve more than one term in the top UN executive post VS AMBASSADOR Arthur Goldberg said be did not agree with that premise He told a news conference the United States in the hope that the secretary general will accede to the desire of the (UN) membership that he consent to the extension of his term of Elaborating on the statement Goldberg said he hoped this would be another full five-year term something short of a full but urge him to stay for as long as he The other big powers In the Security Council the top organ of the United Nations comment for the time being Britain France and the Soviet Union the latter acting as council president this month pointed out privately their past support of Thant was well known IN THE HAGUE the Nether lands government issued statement In effect joining the US drive It said the Dutch government not abandon the hope that it will as yet be possible to persuade Mr Thant to make himself available once Ethiopia said it has lost hope even at this late hour and will join with other missions in making yet another appeal to Thant to stay There was no indication what response to a draft move would be He was in seclusion with friends outside of New York and would not be back at his desk before next Tuesday But a UN spokesman said his statement yesterday the only one that has been issued or will be issued on this question" While this implied finality UN member nations hoped this was not the case The 10 non-permanent members of the Security

three synods of Lutherans (United American and Missouri) Also participating in the planning was the Rev Keith kreitner director of the Episcopal Student Center but participation by the Episcooal Diocese of Arizona has been described as the fence" The Rev Mr Leavitt said the reason for one large center arises from the fact that stors after working together the past have discovered that they can do things more ef-fectively on a cooperative If approved the new center would be built on the site of the resent Wesley House at 715 ark Ave near the East 3rd Street entrance to the University of Arizona and near a new university dormitory area The building as designed by architects Scholer Fuller would have 10000 square feet of space There would be separate offices for tbs participating tened the Laotian forces The US air operations have been carried out with the tacit approval of the Laotian government headed by Premier Prince Souvanna Phouma Souvanna desperately trying to maintain the legal stance of neutrality cannot afford to admit publicly that he is receiving US air support let alone that he welcomes it So US forces are very close-mouthed about their operations over Laos and officially will not even admit that American bombing raids on Communist targets Laos have become an almost daily occurrence during the past year The case of Cambodia is exactly the opposite of that of Laos Although chief of state Prince Norodom Sihanouk loudly insists that his country is neutral Communist forces are on its soil not only North Vietnamese units en route to South Viet Nam but also Viet Cong units fleeing into sanctuary American commanders in South Viet Nam would very much like to receive permission from Washington to take their troops into Cambodia in helicopter attacks on
