We report on a measurement of the inclusive jet production cross
section in p anti-p collisions at s**(1/2) = 1.96 TeV using data collected with
the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab in Run II (CDF II) corresponding
to an integrated luminosity of 385 pb-1. Jets are reconstructed using the
K_T algorithm. The measurement is carried out for jets with rapi+dity 0.1 <
|yjet| < 0.7 and transverse momentum in the range 54 < p(t)jets < 700
GeV/c. The measured cross section is in good agreement with next-to-leading
order perturbative QCD predictions after the necessary non-perturbative
parton-to-hadron corrections are included.
