Bray III, announcing this move, said the aim is to bring down the price of fresh and frozen beef and veal to the American consumers. Convention To Make It Official Tonight; HHH And Muskie Quit Race By BEN COLE The Star's Convention Bureau Miami Beach, Fla. The delegates at the 1972 Democratic National Convention will make it official tonight, giving Senator George S. Mc-Govern of South Dakota the presidential nomination. It won't be much of a surprise.

The outcome really was never in doubt from the moment the first delegate arrived.

BELL A special legislative liaison committee of city officials is drafting legislation for a local-option tax for Indianapolis in the 1973 Indiana General Assembly, it was learned yesterday. City-County Council President Thomas C.

Hasbrook said it has not been determined whether a tax will be sought on income or sales. HE SAID final details have not been reached, but city officials "definitely" will offer a local-option bill to the legislature. "We want some kind of local-option tax," Hasbrook declared. Such legislation would allow cities who vote to do so to impose locally a tax on either the income of city residents or retail sales, in addition to state sales and income taxes. Hasbrook made the statements after a key Republican councilman urged fellow Republicans on the council and city officials to "lobby for a local option payroll tax" in the 1973 General Assembly.

COUNCILMAN George Tintera made the proposal in a memo also urging GOP councilmen to keep the property tax rate at its present level and at the same time provide a 5 per cent pay increase for city and county employes. Tintera also urged that "budgeted personnel" be reduced by 5 per cent. He said Federal funds should be used "whenever possible to augment local government. All government agencies should be encouraged to apply for Turn to Page 4, Column 4 McGovern, riding with the people who propelled President John F. Kennedy into the White House and all but nominated his brother, Robert F.

Kennedy, is inheriting a deeply wounded party. HELPING McGovern as he swept across the country in the preconvention primaries and party maneuvering were youthful volunteers who at times showed impatience with the methodical Kennedy professionals such as publicist Frank Mankiewicz and longtime Kennedy aide Pierre Salinger. Senators Hubert H. Humphrey of Minnesota and Edmund Muskie of Maine underscored the "realities of the situation yesterday when they withdrew their names from the race, leaving delegates pledged to them free to join whatever candidate they chose. A few will go to Senator Henry M.

(Scoop) Jackson of Washington and some to Alabama Governor George C. Wallace. But most of them will gravitate to the point of power and give McGovern their support. Jackson has declared he will stay in the contest, but it is an empty gesture in a way since the issue already has been decided and the votes he gets will be a mere token of dissent from the convention majority. Terry Sanford, Duke University president and former North Carolina governor, also will get a handful of votes.

ALTHOUGH Wallace remained a candidate, his strategists have acknowledged he has no chance on the first ballot. And it is virtually certain there will be only one roll call. Wallace got a rousing ovation last night as he came smiling before the convention in a wheelchair to plead for greater conservatism in the party's liberal, McGovern-slanted platform.

633-1200 painful road that Mrs. Humphrey made a gusty ao-pearance in Convention Hall last night even though, political pro that she is, she knew that it was all over but the shouting. BUT THERE SHE was, smiling, waving and giving bright, cheerful interviews. It was clear that she even drew Eleanor McGovern to the hall. Mrs.

McGovern had planned to remain with her husband in their hotel suite. But apparently seeing Mrs. Humphrey and Joan Kennedy spotlighted at the hall, she made a last minute decision and came to opening night. After the credentials fight on the decisive California vote, Mrs. Humphrey departed the hall, too saddened to speak.

phreys the long ended in defeat. Undersecretary of State John N. Irwin has asked envoys of the 12 countries to meet at the State Department today with Treasury Secretary George Shultz and representatives of the Department of Agriculture, the Cost of Living Council, the President's Council of Economic Advisers and the office of the special assistant to the President for consumer affairs. BRAY SAID it is anticipated that President Nixon's freeze on voluntary restraints on meat imports, announced in late June, will bring an 11 per cent increase in meat imports this year. The new appeal to the 12 nations for all the beef they can shin here will boost imports still further above the 11 per cent already expected.

The 12 nations and the amount of their exports to the United States in 1971 in millions of pounds were: Australia, 600.4 million pounds; New Zealand, 250.9; Mexico, 78.2; Ireland, 74.7; Guatemala, 25.3; El Salvador, 3.0; Honduras, 16.7; Nicaragua, 44.8; Costa Rica 39.8; Panama 6.1; the Dominican Republic, 12.5, and Haiti, 2.6. It will be explained to the ambassadors that countries that help the United States now with larger meat imports will have this factor considered when import quotas for 1973 are set. DURING 1971 there were 1.112 billion pounds of meat imported into the United States under the voluntary restraint program. Total U.S. meat production this year is estimated at 23.3 billion pounds.

With a boost of more than 11 per cent in meat imports, in the vicinity of 1.3 billion pounds will be furnished to American consumers with the hope that this will bring down soaring meat prices. Bray said the purpose of the President's action in suspending voluntary meat restraints and of the meeting with the 12 nations today is to encourage a further supply. "The American market for meat is now wide open and we will take all you can send," the spokesman said. MR. AND MRS.

CIZEK GOTTFRIED Children (left to right) Marlon, Harley Zimmerman, who operates the trailer home, told the family not to worry about the rent until Gottfried goes to work. Shortly before noon Zimmerman accepted a call for the family from the Governor's office. It was an invitation to lunch. Aftrfa lunch of ham, potatoes, salad German Family' 's Faith In City Restored By Outpouring Of Help BY HELEN THOMAS Miami Beach (UPI)-A lot of hearts broke for Muriel Humphrey yesterday. There she was again, holding back the tears as her misty-eyed husband again conceded a political defeat.

MRS. HUMPHREY had been campaigning for her husband since January because she knew that he felt there was just one more chance to reach the political mountaintop the White House. She traveled 25,000 miles by car alone and countless thousands by plane carrying the Humphrey message to the people. AND SHE HAD a personal stake herself. She said many times that being first lady would be like "having a magic wand" in your hand to carry out so many human welfare projects.

Eefore Humphrey publicly capitulated, Mrs. Humphrey said her own special "thank you" to 150 staffers, many of whom sobbed. THEN, WEARING A teal blue pant-suit, her snowy hair beautifully cnif-fured, she accompanied her husband to the news conference in the Carillon Hotel where he withdrew. On the platform, Humphrey seemed particularly attentive to his wife, giving her affectionate pats on the back of her head and pulling her close to him. Then he kissed her on the forehead.

SHE APPEARED terribly upset but kept her composure. For many who looked on, it was deja vu, they had been there before and so had the Hum- The Weather Joe Crow Says: One thing the Democratic convention has in common with the world chess championship is that the average guy doesn't know what's going on at cither event.

McGovern already had passed the word to his delegate majority to vote "no" on all parts of the Wallace package of dissenting planks. WALLACE WON cheers and whistles by asserting that the American people are "frustrated, tired of big government," and know that big government cannot solve their problems. The average citizen, he said, feels government pays attention to them only on Election Day and "taxpaying day." His plank denouncing school busing to achieve racial balance provided the night's biggest platform battle.

The official platform committee's draft plank on busing indorsed the transportation of students both to improve the quality of education and to help achieve racial balance. This was the McGovern-indorsed position. OTHER CHALLENGING Wallace planks called for release of war prisoners as a precondition of American withdrawal from Indochina and the maintenance of strong defense forces. The Wallace Vietnam plank provided another clash, because the convention's 150-member platform committee had submitted a draft calling for, "as the Turn to Page 11, Column 4 Today's Prayer When I use my talent for second-rate purposes, forgive me, God, and lead me to use the utmost of my powers for worthy goals and good ends.

The offers of goodwill also included lunch with Governor Edgar D. Whit-comb in his Riley Towers apartment and a job made possible by the Governor. CIZEK GOTTFRIED, 31, laughed and cried in his trailer home as he related the events that occurred since the story -of his problems appeared in The Indianapolis Star yesterday. Detective Sgt. Charles F.

Boyd, who investigated the theft, said he was deeply touched by the family and their "welcome" to Indianapolis. "This is one case I'll gladly work overtime to catch that guy. That family lost everything can you imagine losing everything you own?" asked Boyd. BOYD RECEIVED more than 15 calls yesterday with offers of clothing, furniture, money and jobs. The Star received more than 50 calls.

And Indianapolis police received nearly the same number. Yesterday morning. Chief Winston L. Churchill said the three police chaplains would accept money donations and police would take the money to the family. Mrs.

Mary Frantz, secretary to the chaplains, said offers of clothing are also being accepted. "The children need clothing, they have nothing," she said. MEANWHILE, the family received offers of help at their trailer home at 3415 Wt Morris Street. Reykjavik (UPI) World champion Boris Spassky, playing white, capitalized on United States grand master Bobby Fischer's error and held the only chance of victory after 4V4 hours' play last night when the first game of the world championship chess match was adjourned until today. Fischer, who arrived eight jpinutes after the start of the game, could only hope to settle for a draw after losing Ms last bishop for two pawns.
