(UPl) Tropical Storm Dorla churned along the Atlantic coast of North Carolina and Virgina Friday night with winds of near hurricane force aimed northeastward toward the New York City area. The season's fourth tropical storm spawned a tornado and torrential rains that sent vacationers fleeing from beach resorts and cities along the Atlantic Seaboard, including the nation's capital, were deluged with rain. The Weather Bureau said Doria could increase its intensity and a hurricane watch was in effect for the coastal region from Manas-quan, N. to Cape Ann, in-. eluding New York City, Long Island and south coast of DORIA MADE its landfall with winds of 68 mph about 30 miles west of Cape' Lookout, N.

at 3 p. m. and struck out on a course paralleling the shore. By 8 p. m.

the storm was moving at 25 mph along the Virginia Capes with winds of 60 mph, the Weather Bureau in Washington said. The forecast said the storm would move northeastward near the coast with the center reaching Ocean City about midnight and offshore around the New York City, area early this morning. Doria spawned a tornado in Chesapeake, near Norfolk, Friday' afternoon, caving in roofs and uprooting trees and knocking down telephone lines. There were no injuries reported. ALL OF VIRGINIA east of the Blue Ridge Mountains was warned of flash, flooding and rains of more than five inches fell in the eastern suburbs of Washington, setting off flash flooding.

Heavy rain fell as far inland as 100 miles. "The storm should maintain or increase its intensity slightly and gradually turn more toward the northeast Saturday," the 8 p. m. (EDT) advisory said. "Tides along the coast will rise three to five feet above normal as the storm approaches." Thomas G.

Dunn, mayor of Elizabeth, N. proclaimed a state of emergency Friday for his city which sets near sea level. He said at least 100 persons had been evacuated from their homes and an appeal was made for rowboats. Heavy rains set off in advance of Doria measured at 5.80 Inches in Central Park, flooded subway stations and stranded thousands of weekend bound commuters in New York City. In Virginia, all emergency operations centers in the Tidewater area were activated but no evacuations were planned.

There were power failures in parts of Morehead City, N. as Doria came and one radio station went off the air for a period, but resumed broadcasting with emergency power. One stretch of US 17, the main coastal highway, was under two inches of water for a time at high tide north of Wilmington.

Although favoring covering profits in any new system of economic controls, Romney said he supported Mr.

Nixon in not including Interest rates in the freeze. IN OTHER MAJOR economic developments, the government and most economists hailed Japan's floating of the yen as a victory for Mr. Nixon's new economic program, and the U.S. list of leading business indicators moved ahead WASHINGTON (AP) The Nix-on administration hinted Friday it may move to placate powerful labor opposition to the wage-price freeze by allowing workers to collect later some of the hundreds of millions of dollars in frozen pay hikes. "I feel that as much as possible, where there are bona fide, legalistic contracts, people should get what they have coming to them," said Assistant Secretary of Labor W.

J. Usery, key White House liaison man in a new administration bid for labor co-operation. Labor sources estimated some $500 million in negotiated wage hikes are frozen. SECRETARY GEORGE Romney of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, said the freeze should be followed by federal action to halt what he said were abuses of power in setting wages and prices. "It may be that the best way to get at this problem of abuse of power is through some form of wage-price review board relying on AP Wirepholo "We welcome the decision of Japan as a further step toward a more realistic alignment of international exchange rates," said the Treasury Department of Japan's action to let the yen's value float upward in relation to the dollar.

"Economic growth Is likely to accelerate in the months ahead," said Assistant Secretary of Commerce Harold C. Passer of the report that business Indicators rose 1.4 last month. The July report was based on figures before Mr. Nixon's wage-price freeze. INDICATORS showing improvement in July were the ratio of prices to labor costs, building permits, new orders for durable goods and a decrease in new claims for unemployment insurance.

They outweighed declines in the average workweek, industrial materials prices, contracts and orders for plant and equipment, and stock prices. Usery, commenting on organized labor's compliance, said no nal determination has been made on whether workers later may collect wage hikes caught in the freeze, but that the administration is considering this and other union protests that workers were being unfairly treated. "I think in due time these decisions will be made," he said. Mr. Nixon's Cost of Living Council which has chief responsibility for specific rulings on the freeze already has loosened an interpretation to allow hundreds of thousands of schoolteachers to get previously scheduled pay raises.

Vehicles Stalled On Flooded Yonhers Street eastern seaboard drenched by rains spawned by Hurricane Doria Dollar Dealings Cooled In Floating Yen's Wake The moves ruled out investment by nonresidents in various short-term securities, a favorite refuge for speculative money. The controls were seen as a strong step to stem the flow Into Britain of speculative cash, which could push the value of the pound against the U. S. dollar too high for comfort. THE DECISION to let the value of the yen increase on the foreign exchange market was welcomed by financial experts as an important step in solving international monetary problems.

Dealers said the yen was offered at 333.50 to the dollar at the opening of the exchange but there were no takers. Being Saturday, the exchange was in business only in the morning. 'Blues' Breaks Heart Of Satchmo's Wife CHICAGO (UPl) Lil Hardin Armstrong hit the piano keys on the last chord of "The St. Louis Blues" at an open air concert honoring her former husband Louis Armstrong Friday and fell dead. 1 1 Mrs.

Armstrong, 68, the second wife of the jazz immortal who died scarcely a month and a half ago, was stricken by a heart attack as she played the climactic number of a salute to Armstrong in Chicago's Civic Center Plaza. An estimated 2000 people heard the music of Armstrong's favorite tune stop abruptly as the intense, graceful woman slid to the floor of the stage. Mouth to mouth resuscitation was attempted on the spot and doctors at Wesley Memorial Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, labored a half hour more to save her. But a hospital spokesman said it appeared Mrs. Armstrong had died instantly.

The feature was a salute to Armstrong by the Red Saunders Band, with which Mrs. Armstrong a Jazz star of the 1920s when a newcomer to Chicago from New Louis Armstrong, was still an unknown had appeared regularly.

Mrs. Armstrong played and then it was over. LONDON (AP) Europeans bought and sold the U. S. dollar a bit gingerly and indecisively Friday in the wake of a Japanese decision to float its yen.

Japan's backdown from its rigid peg of the yen to the dollar touched off no bdg trading rush perhaps a sign the major speculation in the dollar as a result of President Nixon's austerity program was at an end. Financial sources said Japan's backdown from its rigid peg to the dollar could focus attention on the pound as a rising currency and pusth its value against the dollar too high for comfort.
