Russians Get Grain Despite Court Suit VN Supervision Adds Up to Zero Federal Reserve Boosts Discount gleton requested Goodpasture to finish loading the vessel and let her get underway to her home port of Novojrossijsk on the Black Sea The 49 crewmen who waited almost a month in the Gulf to get a berth in the port have been kept on board since docking early this week because the visas for the crew list had not arrived in the Houston Immigration office ONE ORDER of grain 20000 tons was loaded by Thursday and the Captain Vladimir Ozobinsky requested the second shipment be put onboard while they were still docked The owner Louis Dreyfus Corp of New HOUSTON (UPI) Owners of a grain elevator at the Port of Houston have agreed to continue loading a Russian vessel with wheat although they contend the shipment is being loaded out of order with seven other ships waiting in the Gulf of Mexico Goodpasture Inc yesterday refused to load a second shipment of 14000 tons and sued in US District court to force the ship Lozo Vaya to leave the dock and get in line behind the other ships THE SUIT claimed it cost the elevator company $25000 a day to be idle It asked that the ship be attached or sold to

after the close of the stock market The board said it raised the discount rate recognition of the recent rise in short term open market interest rates which is an outgrowth of strong credit demands generated by rapid economic expansion and in view of recent developments in the foreign exchange markets ALTHOUGH HIGHER interest rates will be considered an ominous sign by business they should have the advantage of luring foreign held dollars back to the United States The enormous pool of dollars overseas has been a key factor in the international currency rate turmoil that has led to two dollar devaluations in the past 15 months While urging banks to hold the line on the prime rate the interest committee made one exception After reviewing cost figures submitted by the Girard Bank of Philadelphia the panel said it no longer objected to a one quarter per cent increase in the prime rate to 6 per cent Girard was one of four banks in New York and Philadelphia which recently hiked and then quickly lowered their prime rate after strong criticism by the administration LIBRA JL' ARIES MAR 21 AM 3-5-9-14 t3fa EwP-TSAg Yoar Doily Activity Guido According to iho Stan To develop message for Sunday read words corresponding to numbers of your Zodiac birth sign WASHINGTON The Federal Reserve is boosting its key discount rate and the chairman has urged banks to sacrifice profits in the name of fightmg inflation Effective Monday the Federal Reserve will raise its discount rate from 5 to 5 per cent It is the second upward adjustment in five weeks and pushes the rate to its higher level since December 1971 THE DISCOUNT rate is the interest charged by the central banking system on loans to commercial banks It often follows trends in short term interest rates but is an important tool in determining the availability of credit throughout the economy While the Reserve board was hoisting its own borrowing charges yesterday Chairman Arthur Burns warned banks to be wary of

DON TATE Scripps-Howord Staff Writer MY THO South Vietnam "If they really want peace then we might as well go home" said Col Robert Screaton of Ottawa about his job supervising the cease-fire here in the Mekong Delta Almost four weeks after the cease-fire was signed effective supervision efforts have added up to about zero here and in the rest of South Vietnam "IF THEY are determined to fight out he said will fight And we certainly are not going' to climb on our white chargers and wade in -with clubs to stop them All carrying when I go in is my sunglasses" Screaton heads a team from the International Commission for Control and Supervision (ICCS) here to work with a team from the four-power Joint Military Commission (JMC) to try to convert the cease-fire into peace But the JMC composed of South Vietnamese Viet Cong North Vietnamese and Ameri-UNTIL it does Screaton informed here because the Viet delegation has not arrived UNTIL it does Screaton insists his ICCS team cannot function and practically useless because of our vast ignorance of the land the people and everything else about Vietnam that we were depnd-ing on the JMC to help us Screaton has had cease-firewatching experience along the Suez Canal and other places "where you could tell one side from the But telling one side from the other in South Vietnam and who holds what land is difficult So is determining who is guilty of any cease-fire violation "IF EVIDENCE can be established clearly as to date time and place of said Screaton an ICCS team will go 'here along with interpreters and members of the JMC to talk to the people If there is no one to question once the team arrives I suppose we can do much he said if it is a village and there is someone there we can question them and then come back here and try to agree on what we saw and heard" Each national delegation on an ICCS team representing Canada Hungary Indonesia and Poland then would compile its own account of the incident If there is unanimous agreement an official report would be sent to ICCS headquarters in Saigon If there is no agreement each national delegation is free to forward its own view of what happened Screaton said UNFORTUNATELY added there is no provision in the ceasa-fire agreement to force a guilty party to make amends even if the ICCS (team can agree on what happened Some form of international censure might evolve after the international conference to guarantee the Vietnam peace convenes Monday in Paris But most analysts here believe the ICCS is not going to be a cease-fire safeguard unless it shows more muscle than it has so far And some here see ICCS reports only gathering dust like those of the international control commission set up to poll ice the 1954 Vietnam ceasefire THE PATTERN already seems set that each side will blame the other for thousands of violations while covering its own tracks by denying everything To guard against secret infiltration from North Vietnam in this area which includes vast stretches of prime infiltration territory along the Cambodian the ICCS has only one ounost as yet unmanned It's at Hong Ngu on the Mekong River a few miles from the border THE CEASE-FIRE agreement makes Hong Ngu the official of for Communist arms entering this part of South Vietnam an the one to one replacement basis prescribed in the agreement But most here believe Hong Ngu will be a port of entry at which the ICCS will see only what the Communists want it to see Some analysts here visualize the Communists ritualistically checking a few boxes of rifles and ammunition through Hong Ngu once in a while for the sake of form while continuing to funnel the big shipments the old along jungle trails and down the river An ICCS team in Hang Ngu would be helpless even to find out about them only one of the reasons for belief that they don't really want peace then we might as well go 1 Good 2 Evan 3 Let 40rganlze 5 Rumors 6 Thrilling 7 And 8 Finish 9 Go 10 Consult 11 Your 12 A 13
