Wednesday. Protesters remove their of Hiroshima. The paintings were made last week in downtown Louisville, but didn't wash away with the rain as expected. Anne Ford, left, and Jean Edwards scrubbed yesterday to remove "human shadows" symbolizing the people killed during the bombing Panel urges Southern industries to expand productivity, exports Herman J. Lammers, ex-chief of Catholic charities, dies at 79 sity, said that improving the national economy would benefit traditional industries.

But she said the outlook was poor for the rest of 1986 and 1987. North Carolina Gov. Jim Martin, who presided over the panel discussion, said In opening remarks that traditional industries need to regain their competitive edge by keeping abreast of technological advances and changes in the world economy. "The South must continue to be the region of hope, not the land of a comfortable, complacent past" Martin said. "Our region must develop new ideas for new times.

We must rebuild a foundation of our traditional industries, not just patch over its widening cracks with temporary solutions." Another panelist Dewey Trogdon, president of the American Textile Manufacturers Institute, sharply criticized the Reagan administration for opposing curbs on textile imports. The House failed last week to override President Reagan's veto of a bill restricting textile imports. "In the South, we didn't have enough chips to call the administration's hand," Trogdon said. Trogdon acknowledged the need Monsignor Herman J. Lammers, former director of Catholic charities for the Louisville archdiocese, died yesterday at his home.

He was 79. Lammers, of 104 St. Francis Court, was ordained In 1932 and became an assistant pastor at the Cathedral of the Assumption. In 1937, he was named pastor of Holy Trinity in Fredericktown. In 1939, Lammers was appointed director of Catholic charities, a post he held for more than 30 years.

At the same time, he became chaplain of the St. Thomas-St. Vincent Home for orphans. He was honored by the Catholic Orphans Society board in 1964, which praised his "personal feeling and individual attention to every person."

Kentucky Gov.

Martha Layne Collins will head a joint meeting of the association and the Southern States Energy Board today. She has been chairman of the latter group for the past year. Barbara Hadley Smith, Collins' press secretary, said the governor also will discuss a proposal to hold a Southern regional primary in the 1988 presidential campaign. It appears that 14 to 16 states will be involved in such a primary, the press secretary said. Another session today will be devoted to the energy industry, and another to "rebuilding our physical and human capital." Former Secretary of State Alexander Haig will deliver a luncheon address on the "strategic importance" of traditional industries.

The conference, which opened Sunday, has attracted leaders from 17 states, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Inormation for this story also was gathered by Anne Pardue. Staff Map the increases void because council-members violated state open meetings laws by holding closed meetings to discuss them. Concerned Citizens might not oppose the increases if the city proved they were needed. Hunter said.

"If he (Shepherd) will turn public records over to the public and have an audit then we might go along. But he has shut the door in our face." Shepherd said that isn't true that he has denied the public no records. The Concerned Citizens real motive is politics. Shepherd said. Now the companies that operate the barges and towboats on the river system have been forced to move operations to other waterways, such as the Mississippi and the Tennes-see-Tombigbee.

The waterway's closing "has put us in an uncompetitive position. We're like the new kid on the block when we try to find business on those other water systems," said Don Childress, manager of the Childress which operated five barges and three towboats on the Tri-Rivers System. The company has had to lay off 15 people, about 30 percent of its work force. Lake Lanier, northeast of Atlanta, is a major source of water for the Chattahoochee River, which separates Georgia and Alabama. The Chattahoochee and Flint converge at Georgia's Lake Seminole, north of the Florida line, to form the Apalachicola, which flows through the Florida Panhandle to the Gulf.

But now the Army Corps of Engineers Is releasing only enough water from Lake Lanier to meet municipal needs and ensure adequate oxygen for fish, said Sam Green, a corps spokesman. "Navigation for all intents and purposes is dead," Green said. Lake Lanier already Is 14 feet below normal and dropping six inches a week, and would need two weeks of continuous rain "just to bottom this thing out" said Green. 1 TW CUMBERLAND KENTUCKY Continued from Page 1 point I can't say it (my mind) can't be changed." Shepherd said he still thinks the package of tax and rate increases are necessary. Measures that Shepherd proposed included a 35 percent increase in city licenses for merchants, a 35 percent sewer rate increase, a $25 automobile sticker tax, a $5 city water usage fee and commercial garbage rate increases.

The revenue boosters were needed to offset federal revenue sharing losses and increasing city insurance costs, according to Shepherd. The city council first enacted the measures, then voted to rescind them at the July 17 meeting. That is the meeting the city attorney says was invalid because not enough notice was given. Concerned Citizens members have filed suit in Harlan Circuit Court, asking the court to declare By JOHN FLESHER Aiiocltttd Pmt CHARLOTTE, N.C. Traditional Southern industries must improve their productivity and expand their overseas markets to overcome current difficulties, panelists agreed yesterday during a discussion at the 52nd annual Southern Governors Association conference.

In the opening session of the conference, former U.S. Commerce Secretary Juanita Kreps and USX Corp. President Thomas Graham said that ailing traditional industries, such as textiles and steel, were best able to help themselves, rather than relying on government They said, however, that better tax and trade policies are needed. "The reality Is, we have to learn to live and compete with steel Imports," Graham said. Although imports contribute to the steel industry's problems, they are the result of a worldwide steel glut, Graham said.

He also said that striking steel workers are creating problems by demanding unrealistic increases in wages and benefits.

Martha Layne Collins has replaced one member of the State Board of Education and reappointed three others.

Lois Weinberg of Hindman was appointed as a representative of the state at large. Her term will end June 30, 1988. She took the position formerly held by Ann Bardwell of Lexington. Reappointed to the board were W. D.

Kelley, Hopkinsville; Henry E. Pogue Fort Thomas; and Lila Bellando, Berea. Their terms will expire June 30, 1990. Senate reconfirms attorney DeFalaise Associattd Pm WASHINGTON Louis DeFalaise has been confirmed for a second four-year term as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Kentucky, Sen.

Mitch McConnell, announced yesterday. DeFalaise's tenure as chief federal prosecutor in the district began in December 1981. Since December 1985, he has served on an acting basis, waiting for reconfirmation. The Senate confirmed DeFalaise on Saturday by unanimous consent. Mississippi man dies in boating accident CANNELTON, Ind.

(AP) The victim of a fatal boating accident at an Ohio River dam has been identified as a 39-year-old construction electrician from Mississippi. The body of Terry Reed of Louisville, had not been recovered as of yesterday, said Deputy Jim In-man of the Hancock County sheriffs department. Parts of Reed's boat and his car, parked at a nearby boat ramp, enabled authorities to identify Reed as the victim, Inman said. Other fishermen in the area said Reed was alone in his boat. State says May primary drew only 28 of voters INDIANAPOLIS (AP) The State Election Board says 868,614 people voted in the May primary, a drop of 141,000 voters from May 1982, the last primary in a non-presidential-election year.

Only about 28 percent of eligible voters cast a ballot this May, the board said; 1,010,089 people voted In 1982. The May primary cost $4.4 million, or $5.09 per voter.

PCB plant's opponents seek Reagan's aid Associated Prt HENDERSON, Ky. Leaders of citizens' groups fighting a PCB-re-moval plant being built in Henderson say they will seek President Reagan's intervention if that is what it takes to stop the plant from operating. "Our strategy is to seek Reagan intervention," said John Blair, president of Valley Watch Inc. of Evans-ville, Ind. "We aren't giving up, but it's going to take a lot more than we've given them." Jane McConathy, president of Citizens for Healthy Progress in Henderson, said she thought it was realistic to look to the White House because the Henderson project was the focus of a congressional hearing last week.

The House Subcommittee on Commerce, Transportation and Tourism met in Washington to discuss the way the Environmental Protection Agency handles hazardous-waste projects. One of the projects they examined was the Henderson plant, being built by UNISON Transformer Services a division of Union Carbide Corp. The plant would remove toxic polychlorinated biphenyls from a fluid used to flush electrical transformers. Opponents are fighting the plant's location, which is near the New Madrid geological fault and the Ohio River, the region's source of drinking water. Blair said he was frustrated by the EPA's failure to respond to issues raised by the opposition.

He said he would ask Republican Sens. Dan Quayle and Richard Lugar of Indiana and Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky to bring the matter to Reagan's attention. "The EPA is acting in a wholly irresponsible manner," Blair said. "Reagan needs to show the world the administration has some concern for environmental quality." In 1975, Lammers was named executive director of the archdiocese's Respect Life Pastoral Plan.

He had served on Louisville's Health and Welfare Council and the Mayor's Human Relations Commission and was a former board member of Right to Life. Survivors include nieces and nephews. The funeral will be at 11 a.m. Thursday at Cathedral of the Assumption, 443 S. Fifth St, with burial in Calvary Cemetery.

(AP) A 9-year-old girl has died from injuries she received when a "Moon Walk" attraction at the Sweetwater County Fair blew over in a strong wind, according to a hospital spokeswoman. Robyn Fullmer, who was injured Friday, died Sunday at a Salt Lake City hospital.

According to police reports, the ride, a large, enclosed inflated air-bag where people can walk around and jump as if on a trampoline, blew on its side and burst. Auociattd Prw BAINBRIDGE, Ga. The drought in the Southeast has halted shipping on the Chattahoochee, Flint and Apalachicola rivers. Some river workers have been laid off and some barges are stranded by low water. "If the water keeps dropping, it's going to put a heap of people out of business," said trucker Jackie Wills, who was picking up a load of grain that arrived at the Batnbridge State Docks before the Flint River was closed Aug.

1. Five river ports in Alabama and Georgia have become major shipping points for agricultural products. But now the channel south of Bainbridge has dropped 4 feet below its 9-foot optimum depth for barges, said Larry Lee, executive director of the Tri-Rlvers Waterway Development Association in nearby Dothan, Ala. The drought has been a major setback for the Tri-Rlvers System, which has been working to establish barges as an inexpensive alternative to trucks and trains. Shipments increased from 627,000 tons in 1984 to 1.2 million tons last year.

The system's five ports Columbus and Batnbridge, Phenix City and Eufala, and Sneads, Fla. have generated 1,350 jobs and account for $22 million in personal income and $2 million in state and local taxes annually, Lee said..
