CHARLES "BEBE" REBOZO, a close friend of President
Nixon received favored treatment in the sale of Florida land to
the federal government in 1969, according to Newsday, a Long
Island newspaper.
While other landowners in the area were offered a "take-it-or
leave-it" deal at low prices, Rebozo obtained close-to-appraisal prices
on his holdings, the newspaper said.
The newspaper account quoted A.E.N. Westcott, an Army Corps
of Engineers official who negotiated the acquisition of the property
as explaining "We were supposed to be dealing with someone who
was an intimate of people in high places."
Rebozo was unavailable for comment.
ALASKAN ESKIMOS have laid claim to the entire 76,000-
square-mile North Slope of their state, including 413,000 acres
of oil field already leased to private companies by the state
government for almost $1 billion.
The Arctic Slope Native Association filed suit yesterday with the
U.S. District Court, claiming that the state's selection of North Slope
land under the Alaskan Statehood Act of 1958 be invalidated.
Alaska Gov. William A. Egan said yesterday, "The state feels
there is no question about state ownership of such land."
THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY requested
the Justice Department to file charges against the Ford Motor
Company yesterday charging them with violation of the Clean
Air Act.
The agency charged that Ford shipped to its dealers, autos which
had not received antipollution clearance, a charge carrying with itI
a fine of up to $10,000 for each vehicle shipped illegally.

It was a victory for President Nixon. Even though the
measure was modified to give individuals more and busi-
ness less than he recommended, it remains a key part of
his new economic program.
It was a defeat for powerful segments of organized la-
bor. Union chiefs had staged a last-minute blitz against the
measure, contending it is still a bonanza for business.

Egyptian charges,
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Riad, speaking at the United
Nations yesterday accused Israel of seeking an interim agree-
ment to reopen the Suez Canal as a "springboard for further
aggression." Riad further called for an immediate Israeli com-
mitment to withdraw from all Egyptian territory.

All individual taxpayers would
benefit at least a little under the
measure.
Those at the poverty level and
for some distance above it would
receive significant tax cuts. Au-
tomobile buyers would save an
average of $200 on new cars pur-
chased.
Business would get a tax sub-
sidy on new equipment purchased.
This incentive to stimulate or-
ders and employment and to
make U.S. plants more competi-
tive is a major administration ob-
j ective.
Hoping to speed the measure
to enactment by early Novem-
ber, the Senate Finance Commit-
tee opens hearings, today. How-
ever, strenuous efforts to reshape
the tax relief are expected on
the Senate floor.
According to over-all estimates,
individual incomes taxes would be
Scut by about $27billion this year,
$5 billion in 1972 and $2.7 billion
in 1973.
By next year, individuals with
no more than $2,050 income or
families of four with no more
than $4,300 would have no income
tax to pay.
A typical individual earning
$3,500 would save $24 on this
year's tax, $59 on next year's, $51
on 1973 earnings. If he earned
$15,000, his savings would be $7
this year, $13 next year, none
thereafter.

govt. pay hike
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Sen-
ate, by a 60-27 vote, took a first
step yesterday to upset President
Nixon's effort to keep the lid on
federal pay scales as part of his
anti-inflationary program.
It adopted an amendment to a
military procruement bill under
which government employes could
get a pay raise on Jan. 1 of as
much as permitted private em-
ployes after the wage-price freeze
expires on Nov. 13.
Nixon ordered that a scheduled
Jan. 1 pay raise of about 6 per
cent for government employes un-
der legislation passed last year
be postponed for six months.
Senators trying to overturn
Nixon's order hailed the adop-
tion of the amendment as a sign
that the Senate will approve to-
morrow a resolution of disapprov-
al of Nixon's order.
"It looks pretty good now,"
Sen. Frank E. Moss, D-Utah, told
reporters after the vote.
The House upheld the Presi-
dent on Monday, defeating a re-
solution disapproving the order.
A similar resolution was ap-
proved by the Senate Post Office
and Civil Service Committee ear-
lier yesterday and is scheduled
for a floor vote tomorrow.
The amendment proposing fed-
eral raises equal to those in pri-
vate industry was coupled to the
disapproval resolution approved

Senate approves weapons bill,

WASHINGTON (R') - The
Senate gave overwhelming ap-
proval yesterday to a bill au-
thorizing $21 billion for mili-
tary weapons and research
while asking for total U.S.
withdrawal from Indochina
within six months.
Passage of the annual mili-
tary arms bill by an 82-4 vote
came after the Senate blocked
an effort to force a new presi-
dential election in South Viet-
nam and set the stage for an
effort to override President
Nixon's delay of a federal pay
raise.
The arms bill, already pass-
ed by the House in a slightly
different form, goes back to that
body before going to confer-
ence for resolution of the dif-
ferences.
The nay votes were cast by
four Democratic senators, Wil-
liam Fulbright, Ark., Mike
Mansfield, Montana, Gaylord
Nelson, Wisconsin, and Mike
Gravel, Alaska.
The bill had been under de-
bate for less than three weeks,
the shortest time the arms
measure has taken to pass the
Senate since before Pentagon
critics began mobilizing against
it in 1969. The $21 billion figure
is only $1 billion under Nixon's
request.
By a vote of 60 to 25, the
Senate rejected the amendment
by Sen. Joseph Montoya, (D-
N.M.), to shorten the six-month
deadline for U. S. withdrawal
voted earlier if South Vietna-
mese President Nguyen Van
Thieu fails to call a new election
by Feb. 3.
Montaya accused the United
States of partial responsibility
for Thieu's uncontested reelec-
tion last Sunday, asserting that
"In the name of political ex-
pediency. America has openly
assisted South Vietnam's Presi-
dent, Thieu in stifling democ-
racy."
Then, on a 44-38 tally, it
rejected Fullbrigbt's move to
block a provision in the bill that
would break the United Na-
tions embalgoon trade with
Rhodesia and permit U.S. im-
ports of strategically important
chrome ore.
Once more, the military pro-
curement measure, which au-
thorizes projects for which ac-
tual money will be voted in a
later appropriations bill, sur-
vived the Senate with all ma-
jor weapons systems getting
authorizations approved by the
usually pro-Pentagon Armed
Services Committee.

He cited the fact that tear gas,
weapons and helicopters used to
break up Buddhist demonstrations
and to attack Buddhist pagodas
were furnished to South Vietna-
mese police by the United States.
The U.S. Embassy acknowled-
ged Buddhist charges that an
American police adviser accom-
panied South Vietnamese riot po-
lice who quelled bloody street
riots in Da Nang on election day.
It said the U.S. consulate in Da

prices be allowed to rise following
the end of the current freeze Nov.
