WASHINGTON (UPI) -After a day-long battle among states, the Senate voted Thursday to give the most money to states with the highest unemployment rates in a $4 billion bill for public works employment. The 56 to 31 vote was a victory for states such as California, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Oregon and Washington, all with jobless rates over 9 per cent. It was a defeat for states such as Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Texas and Wisconsin, which have slightly lower percentage unemployment although some of them have large numbers of people out of work.

The vote rejected an amendment by Sen. John Heinz, which would have distributed the $4 billion entirely on the basis of the number of unemployed persons in each state. The Senate later voted 74 to" 11 to approve the bill, which includes both the $4 billion for public works jobs and $10 billion to continue water treatment projects around the country. It now goes to conference for negotiation of differences between it and a House bill which includes a public works distribution formula very similar to the one the Senate rejected. The Senate was to vote later on passage of the bill, which includes both the $4 billion for public works jobs and $10 billion to continue water treatment projects around the country.

The amendment rejection left standing a proposal by the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee by which 65 per cent of the money would be distributed among states on the basis of the number of unemployed persons in each and 35 per cent would go to states with above average percentage unemployment rates. That formula would give more to states with especially high jobless rates. The jobs proposal is part of President Carter's economic stimulus package, and some sponsors have claimed it will create up to 600,000 jobs. Sen. Heinz said his distribution formula was the fairest because it would "treat all unemployed people alike" no matter where they live and because it was the simplest.

Pennsylvania would have gained $10 million from his proposal, but Heinz said he had pushed for it even when it appeared Pennsylvania would not gain. Sen. Daniel Moyn'ihan, backing the committee's proposal, said funds should be concentrated in areas of highest unemployment in order to keep the economy moving and ease the financial burden of unemployment insurance, welfare and crime on states, particularly in the Northeast. He said the Northeast has been paying for aid to other areas of the country for decades. It helped turn the dust bowl into a "breadbasket," he said, but now the cities of the Northeast "will themselves be deserts" unless they get help.

Committee Chairman Jennings Randolph, told the Senate: "We must go where the need is greatest." Sen. Abraham Ribicoff, whose state would have lost $13 million under the Heinz formula, appealed to the Senate to "take into account the problems of the entire nation and not try to get a little advantage for one state or another." Salt, Pepper To Be Tested For Cancer Link fairly good prospect that used in sufficiently enormous amounts it will cause cancer in rats," he said. "If this turns out to be true, I will demand that the FDA ban pepper." Eisenstadt said his plan "is the only way to show how ridiculous this ban on saccharin is. "For those who need saccharin I advise they call and write their congressmen and senators over the next four months to get the law changed," he said. NEW YORK (UPI The head of a company that will be put out of business by a proposed ban on saccharin said Thursday he is asking a laboratory to conduct cancer-link tests on salt, pepper and sugar.

Benjamin Eisenstadt, president of the company that manufactures sugar substitute Sweet n' Low, said in New York he had commissioned a laboratory to conduct the tests to find out if the everyday condiments could cause cancer in rats. "In the case of pepper, I am told there's a Official View Of Marijuana Troops From Angola Raid Zaire, Seize Towns Pot Danger To Drivers The U.S. embassy spokesman in Kinshasa said three towns taken by the invaders were in a mining region rich in manganese. They are in the province of Shaba, 50 miles from Zaire's" southwestern border with Angola. He said no reason was known for the attack, but there was speculation in Kinshasa that it could be in reprisal for the destruction of a bridge that had been blown up recently in the area or connected with Angolan charees that there are guerrilla Angolan refugee camps in the area.

People States." In releasing the report, Dr. Robert L. DuPont, director of HEW's National Institute on Drug Abuse, said marijuana is an intoxicant, much like alcohol, and his greatest concern about the drug "is its potential effect on automobile accidents in this country." "As marijuana becomes more acceptable to society more users are likely to drive cars while under its influence," DuPont said. He noted a recent study of 300 drivers responsible for fatal accidents in Boston which found that 39 per cent were intoxicated on alcohol and 16 per cent had used marijuana.

But the report discounted most of the widely publicized reports allegedly showing marijuana causes brain damage, chromosome breakage and adverse affect in the body's immune respons and hormone levels. In particular, the repot cited new evidence cor tradicting a widely circulate 1971 British study whic suggested brain shrinkag results from heavy marijuar use.

Senate Puts Stop On Fall Pay Rise Trudeau Unconcerned Over Wife's Travels OTTAWA (UPI) Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau said Thursday he would do nothing to stop his wife, Margaret, from associating with the Rolling Stones rock group or going to other rock concerts even if "she loses me a couple of votes." Trudeau indicated he was not upset about his wife's travels and associations.

"If she loses me a couple of votes because of that," he said, "well, that would be too bad and I would not want to do anything about it. "So a lady goes to a rock concert, and then she goes to New York to visit friends and do some photography," he said.

She has been here since last Saturday to promote her latest film, "A Star Is Born." She was originally scheduled to leave Tokyo for Sydney on Friday.

TOKYO i UPI) Film star Barbra Streisand has cancelled a scheduled trip to Australia because of an ear infection, her agent said Thursday. A spokesman for Warner Bros, said Miss Streisand would fly back to Los Angeles after salary adjustment in eight years. Byrd and Baker said they favor the idea of comparability raises, but not a mere seven months after a substantial increase in the base. The scheduled pay increase in October is called a "comparability raise" and is designed to keep government pay in line with private industry. In 1975, Congress was included for the first time in the annual increase which netted a 5 per cent raise.

But in election-year 1976, Congress voted not to accept the additional money. Byrd said he introduced the legislation because of the major pay raises that went into effect in February. He promised that his bill would not "disrupt the comparability pay system beyond that." "This is a one-time proposal Police Tune In To Catch CB Hookers WASHINGTON (UPI) -Members of the U.S. Senate, who just received a 29 per cent pay increase totaling $12,900 a year, Thursday voted against accepting any more this year. The Senate approved legislation which would prevent top employes of the federal government from receiving a scheduled cost-of-living increase in October.

The House is expected to go along. The vote was 93 to 1, with Sen. Mike Gravel, D-Alaska, the lone dissenter. The legislation, jointly introduced by Senate leaders Robert Byrd and Howard Baker, does not preclude a pay increase in the fall of 1978. Members of Congress, the vice president, the chief justice, members of the Cabinet, all federal judges and top-level bureaucrats received a basepay raise which became effective Feb.

That boost went into effect automatically when neither the Senate nor the House vetoed it. Democratic leaders prevented an up-or-down vote on the issue.

The major argument in favor of the base-pay increase was that the 2,500 employes affected had received only one Police are trying to catch the women at their own game, using a radio of their own and listening for the handles which the prostitutes use.

Mrs. Yancey quit her job at the mansion two years ago to care for her son, but lives about a half-mile away. She said she's somewhat concerned about how Presley will feel about her book.

(UPI) Elvis Presley's former personal secretary, Becky Yancey, is writing a book about the singing star's private life in the 13 years she spent paying his bills and answering his fan mail. Mrs. Yancey, 36, was a frequent guest at the rock 'n roll king's Graceland mansion as a teenager and dated Presley occasionally before her marriage. "I used to go Graceland to parties with friends of Elvis," she said. "In 1962, right after he got out of the Army, I asked him for a job and he said he could use a secretary.

At B'nai B'rith, hostages received coffee and doughnuts about 9 a.m. 22 hours after their capture and they got more food later in the day. By late afternoon, Daniel Thursz, executive director of B'nai B'rith, said the victims were "getting substantial amounts of food," including sandwiches, cottage cheese, and meats. Asked whether Kosher diets were being provided Thursz said "We are trying to take care of that." Police also gathered medical supplies which persons at B'nai B'rith were believed to require, such as prescription drugs.

At city hall, the Hanafis yelled out at midday they were hungry, and negotiations started for hamburgers, trench fries and soft drinks. That was after one of the hostages, Alan Grip, was allowed to talk to a radio station via telephone. WASHINGTON (UPI) -According to their Hanafi Muslim captors, the scores of hostages tied up at three locations Thursday were doing fine. And at least some of those who didn't feel too well were being released. By midday, a man and woman from B'nai B'rith and a woman from the Islamic Center mosque had been sent to George Washington medical center because they complained of chest pains.

A gunman reached by telephone at the mosque was asked how the rest of his estimated 15 hostages were doing. "The hostages are fine," he said. "Everybody's resting now. Their hands are tied in front of them so they can be nice and comfortable." He said police sent in food, including "bananas, tea, coffee, bread and hard boiled eggs." The gunman also said he felt fine and had slept "a little bit. "I sleep like a tiger," he said.

"I jump up whenever there's danger." And, he said, "nobody's complained about anything yet." Police also sent food to the 100 plus hostages at B'nai B'rith and the seven at The following courses are being offered for the third semester of the Adult Extension Program: Classes will begin the week of April 4 and end June 30, 1977.
