Torrance police vowed to capture suspected cop killer Jerry Lee O'Brien alive as a statewide manhunt continues. Detective James Farrar urged O'Brien to surrender to any newspaper, attorney, or law enforcement agency under constitutional rights.

Washington (UPI) A spokesman for business and industry endorsed a tax increase but urged Congress to keep it below Johnson's 16 percent target. W P Gallander, president of the National Association of Manufacturers, said a $29 billion deficit made a tax hike economically necessary and supported accompanying spending cuts. He hinted a 4 percent rise might be tolerable, but did not specify a lower amount.
