Demaada for Action But another Democratic sena¬ tor from a populous southern atata said he had not yet re¬ ceived a single letter this year Kirk Douglas Refused Bid To Make Trip By VERNON SCOTT UP Staff Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (LP)—Ten hours before he died yes¬ terday in a plane crash in New Mexico, jaunty Mike Todd sat in his plush MGM Studio office at¬ tempting to locate com¬ panions for his fatal flight. Feet propped up on his desk, Todd telephoned Producer Joseph Mankie- wicz: "Ah, c'mon," he said. "It's a good safe plane. I wouldn't let it crash. I'm taking along a picture of Elizabeth Taylor, (his wife), and I wouldn't let anything happen to her. "Besides, I got $.3,000,- 000 worth of insurance. You'd be covered, too." Mankiewicz begged off and thereby preserved his life. Todd also called actor Kirk Douglas, who couldn't make it either. The flamboyant showman, who made and lost one fortune after anotlrer during his dazzling career in the entertainment world, was flying to New York ]City to accept the tribute of 1 show business at a testimonial jdinner in the Waldorf-Astoria iHotJel tomorrow. Also killed in the crash were two pilots and screen writer Art Cohn, who was writing a book! [about the producer's fabulousi ;career entitled "The Nine Lives of Michael Todd."

"It only cost $6,000,000. "It will be the first movie ever to make $100,000,000—and I don't know how I'm going tol spend it all." ' Todd interrupted himself to' pick up a life-size portrait of his screen star wife and kissed it. "She's the greatest," ha ob¬ served. His office door opened and Todd's biographer. Art Cohn who was killed in the crash with Todd, stepped in to ask what time their plane would leave. Planned New Picture "At 11 tomorrow moming, un¬ less the weather looks bad. If so, we'll take off late tonight," Todd said. Cohn nodded and said he was going home to pack. "I'm flying East to accept the showman of the year award," Mike went on. "If I can talk Elizabeth into it, I hope to stop by Chicago to see the Robinson- Ba.silio fight on the way back." He said Miss Taylor would not accompany him because she was working the movie "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." She also was suffering from an attack bronchitis. Todd planned to begin pro¬ duction work on a new picture "Don Quixote," on his retum to Business Executives Call for Lower Rate If Decline Continues WASHINGTON (IP)—A 20% across-the-board cut in individual income taxes for about nine months was advocated .vesterday by the Committee for Economic Development if the national economy at the end of —^May drops below Feb¬ ruary levels. Most February econom¬ ic indicators showed a steady slump from last August when many economists agree the cur- rent recession started. The CED, a committee of 150 bu.i^ines.s executives and econo¬ mists seeking to promote na¬ tional economic growth, said it was not actually recommending a tax cut al present. But a spokesman said the congres¬ sional tax committees should start tax reduction studies im¬ mediately and be ready to move quickly "if there are two months of decline below tha February level."

Millionaire Hotef-Owirer Jailed For Fasi One on Sioekholders LONDON m — Leonard P. Jaclnon, a high-living million¬ aire and self-styled ''Napoleon of high finance," found his Waterloo in a woman and went to jail for nine months yesterday on charges of fraud. An Old Bailey Court jury Friday found the 57-year-old Jackson guilty of two counts of defrauding Gordon Hotels, Ltd., into buying a awank restaurant for $168,000 when he knew It waa losing $1,400 ger week. tunned by Verdict Jackson was stunned. He had been so sure of acquittal he had arranged a champagne party at the Mayfair Hotel to celebrate. It was a woman who did him in. Zena Daniels, race¬ horse owner and business¬ woman, led a group of stock- bolden in Gordoa Hotels against Jackson and helped put police on his trail. It was a bitter pill for the man whose slogan waa "noth¬ ing but the best for L.P.J." Borp poor, he parlayed a business in ra^ to the direc¬ torships of 30 companies, and the chairmanship of Gordon Hotels, whidi owna the plush Mayfair Hotel in Loodon^a Weat End. Witii his immaculata dreai, tortoise ahell glasses, taste for champagne and free-spending ways he lived up to his title of "Napoleon of West Lc«- don's high finance." But the jury decided that he tried to make a killing on the Cascade Restaurant, in which he held conpxilhng it»terest. According to police, the sale to Gordons Hotels would have saved Jackson $106,400 io li- abiUties. i Dewey Greets Ike in Georgia AUGUSTA. Ga.

Dewey and his wifa arrived at the Augusta National Golf Club, the President's week-end head¬ quarters, on Thursday but Eisen¬ hower did not know they were here until he arrived. Dewey, who^n twice unsuc- cesfsfully for the office that Eisenhower captured twice, is an old political friend of the Presi¬ dent. After a am ooth two-hour flight from Washington, the President stepped down from the presidential plane Columbine III into bright, early-Spring weath¬ er. It was a sharp contrast to the dismal slush ha left in the nation's capital. Tha President lost no tima in getting out on the golf course. Whita House Press Secretary Jame C. Hagerty said the Presi¬ dent would leave here about 4:30 P. M. (EST) Sunday on the re¬ turn flight to Washington. He has an appointment Monday moming with Dr. Ludwig Er^ bard, West German vice chancel lor and minister of economics. Soviet Record Malces U. S. Doubt Motives MIDDLEBURY, Vt. (IB — A Stata Department official said yesterday that the "black rec- ord^^ of the Soviet regime makes the United States more than suspicious over the motives be hind Russian pressure for an East-West summit meeting. Robert S. McCollum, deputy administrator for refugee pro¬ grams, said that the United States believes negotiations can be worthwhile only if the par¬ ties involved truly want agree¬ ment and ara willing to accept compromises. Reds Accuse U. S. LONDON (m—Radio Moscow accused the United States yes¬ terday of "relying on feudal and treacherous separatist ele¬ ments" in Indonesia.

Mother and Five Children Perish New Cut in Oil Imports Coming From President WASHINGTON (IP>—President Eisenhower's cabi¬ net committee on fuels resources has recommended a deeper cutback in petroleum imports to protect the depressed domestic oil industry, an informed source said yesterday. <^ The decision, which may be announced this week, would ba a victoiy for oil state congressmen and a defeat for the Stata Department, which al¬ ready ia ooncei^nad over bitter reaction in Canada and Vene¬ zuela to tha present voluntary import curb system.
