Puerto Rico ft A Crippling strike by this Island's 6,000 dock workers went into its fourth week today as a commercial airlift poured in critically needed meat and fresh produce.

American Airlines, running from New York and Miami to the only U.S. commonwealth, have drastically stopped up their freight shipments and now are moving a record 25 tons a day. The cargo includes large quantities of high-priority butter, eggs, meat and fresh vegetables. Machinery spare parts, construction material and even such luxury goods as television sets also are being airlifted in increasing amounts. The operation means the difference between fresh and canned food for many of Puerto Rico's two million people.

The island's economy is geared to sugar production and much food normally is shipped in by sea. Negotiations to end the strike by the AFL Maritime Workers Union wore reported nearing a. wage agreement. The walkout started June 25. The Labor Department an nounced last night that the union had changed its wage demand.

Details were not announced. The union originally demanded that the hourly minimum of be increased to New York levels, which it put at J2.28. Later, how. ever, scaled down to a demand for a 23-cent-an-hour increase plu 2 cents for the dockers' Christma fund. Agriculture Secretary Ramon Colon Torres said the strike wai "seriously affecting" Puerto Rico's agriculture.

In particular, he said, the production of milk and raising of fowl was endangered by a short age of feed. Stores have reported of such imported staples as lard, potatoes, onions, rice, beans and bacon. Treasury Stands To Make More Revenue in By SAM MWSOJI NEW YOUK treasury stands to gain more additional revenue out of business this fiscal year than it will be losing through he congressional shake-up of the federal tax system. What business counts as its chief in the casing of tax provisions both for corporations and for Individuals is incentive for business to expand and grow, incentive for individuals to invest. The Treasury will gain money- wise in the months just ahead because the measure now working its way toward the White House puts back, for another year's ride, the old 52 per cent corporate income tax rate which automatically dropped to per cent last April.

As a result the Treasury will be collecting better than one billion more dollars from business in its current Fiscal year than it would under the 47 per cent rale. That's more than corporations in the coming year will be gaining from the liberalization of rules for figuring depreciation, and losses for lax purposes, arid other the depreciation liberalization alone will affect some 10 million tax returns. The Treasury's chief loss of revenue will come from the revision of rules for making out individual tax including the hotly fought-over plans for cutting taxes on income from corporate dividends. Business, however, has a stake in this and most of the other individual tax changes. It hopes that whatever saving is finally set for dividend income the result will be greater incentive to buy corporate stock.

It hopes that savings made on other individual tax provisions will also prove funds to be tapped for investment in business. The liberalized depreciation regulations, agreed upon both by the Senate and the House, should stimulate outlays of capita, businessmen feel, because 'the new rules will aid manufacturers, store keepers, apartment house owners, and farmers. The new rules would allow business to, write off for tax- figuring purposes two-thirds of the cost of plant expansion and modernization in the first half of the useful life of the instead of over the entire period as now. The tax-saving incentive of this provision, observers predict, should lead many firms to go ahead now with plans to build or to buy new plans held, up while they waited to see what the provisions of the tax law would be.
