DoroihyKM On French Island MIAMI (AP) Tropical slorm Dorothy, killer of 12 persons on the French island of Martinique, struck westward across the open Caribbean Sea yesterday with winds of 50 mph. Reports to the National Hurricane Center at Miami said flash floods kicked off by torrential rains drowned 12 persons and injured many others on Martinique. The capital, Fort de France, received 12.32 inches in nine hours. In Paris, there were unconfirmed reports from Martinique that the death toll was as high as 21, including 15 children or old people in one suburb of Fort de France. Gusts of 60 miles an hour did no reported damage, however, and Dorothy was weakened slightly by her collision with the island's mountains.

guerrillas threw a hand grenade at a gasoline station at Rafiah on the occupied Gaza Strip, wounding an Arab resident. No reason was given for the attack. Israeli military leaders, led by Defense Minister Moshe Dayan, toured Israeli positions on the slopes of Mt. Hermon near the Lebanese border yesterday. Fighting between Israeli and guerrilla forces increased in that area recently.

Reports from Beirut and Amman indicated relations between Egypt and Iraq, the latter a bitter foe of the U.S. peace initiative, were continu- ing to worsen. In a broadcast monitored in Reirut, Baghdad radio claimed at least 26 Iraqis have been "kidnaped or arrested" in Egypt, since the two countries began their propaganda war three weeks ago. DURING THE same period, Egypt claims more than 60 Egyptians have been jailed in Iraq. Living Cost Rise Seems Leveling Off (Continued From Page One) care seven-tenths and recreation four-tenths of 1.

CLOTHING PRICES, which had posted substantial hikes earlier in the year, dropped six-tenths of 1, the report said. "The slowdown in July in prices of commodities other than food centered in durables and apparel. There was a smaller increase for houses and a slight decline for used cars, two major items that had risen considerably during the spring," it said. Mortgage interest rates held steady in July but were up 9.8 from a year earlier, Popkin said. Sharp increases were reported for gasoline, cigarettes and newspapers, the bureau said.

Significantly higher costs of household and transportation services were due mainly to a 5.1 rise in residen tial water and sewerage rates, a 2 hike for hotel and motel rooms and a 2.7 rise in city transit fares, the report said. Asking for Senate 'Shift1 Rep. Bill Brock, left, Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate, campaigns in shirtsleeves during a shift change at Nashville's Ford Class plant. Brock 'Actively' Seeks Democratic Support By The Associated Press Israel complained again yesterday that Egypt is "com-tinuing grave violations" of the Middle East ceasefire by building defensive missile sites near the Suez Canal.

The complaint, handed to the UN Truce Supervisory Team, claimed new "irrefutable" evidence based on material gathered Thursday. It was the fourth Israeli protest since the truce began midnight Aug. 7. EGYPT DID not immediately comment on the latest Israeli allegation. But on another matter the semiofficial newspaper Al Ahram called the U.S.

plan for surveillance of the ceasefire by satellite and U2 spy plane "a pretext for espionage." In Washington, a State Department spokesman said the flights will continue. He added that no formal Egyptian protest had been relayed to Washington. Al Ahram said yesterday the U.S. flights could provide Israel with "additional advantages" in present circumstances. The paper also said Israel had turned down a U.S.

suggestion that Russia could 1 reconnaissance missions on the Egyptian side of the ceasefire line. THE ISRAELI military command said its new material "disclosed the construction of missile batteries and other preparational work still in progress" within 20 miles of the canal. The U.S. proposed ceasefire arrangement, accepted Egypt and Israel, called for a snooting halt and barred new military deployment within a 30-mile area on each side of the waterway. The latest Israel complaint came at the same time U.S.

officials in Washington said the government has some reason for encouragement in its hope the Middle East peace talks among Israel, Egypt and Jordan will being very soon. BUT A STATE Department spokesman said he thought a final announcement at the United Nations on the start of the talks was unlikely this weekend. Israel's chief U.N. delegate, Yosef Tekoah, met with Gun-nar V. Jarring, the special U.N.

envoy to the Middle East; in New York yesterday. Asked afterwards if peace talks will get under way next week, he replied, "It's difficult for me to say." In Tel Aviv, the military command said an Israeli soldier was killed by bazooka fire yesterday near the Lebanese border. The fire apparently came from Arab guerrillas.

Thus, the companies are free from paying off claims." MITCHELL ALSO pointed out that because of the "civil" disturbances in North Nashville in 1967, the companies have either cancelled many of the policies for fire insurance or have substantially raised the premium.

"These people need to have this insurance. There must he a system developed whereby companies will be able to insure people in risk areas without charging such high premiums. "Other cities in the United States have developed such FDA Bans Sale of 13 Nasal Drugs WASHINGTON (UPI) -The Food and Drug Administration ordered that 13 nasal sprays and nasal drop preparations be removed from the market within 30 days.

Called Zarephath To Support Hooker plans and I think that Nashville should also devise a similar method." MICHAEL MURPHY, a representative of the Tennessee Consumer Alliance told the committee that certain indemnity plans for low-income people are misleading. A nonparticipating industrial policy is sold almost exclusively to poor, low-income people," said Murphy. "They usually involve small weekly premiums ranging from 30 cents to 70 cents. "The people who usually buy these policies are unable to comprehend the i a 1 language of the policies.

They are led to believe that they are insured against any sickness which renders them unable to perform their work. "IN REALITY, the policy states that a person cannot collect the insurance unless he is under direct supervision of a licensed physician and is completely confined within doors. "The question I have is whether such a restrictive policy is socially desirable." Other testimony told of specific cases of alleged mistreatment of individuals by insurance companies and Grayfred Gray, president of the Tennessee Consumer Alliance, made a plea for more public hearings to be conducted by the committee. GRAY REQUESTED that the committee hold hearings in "all three grand divisions of the state and in its major population centers, including Memphis, Chattanooga, Knoxville, and the Tri-Cities area." He stressed the need for such hearings and said they will "provide an opportunity for the consumer to participate in government."

Body Found On The body of an unidentified man believed to have been dead for about three days was found on the west bank of the Cumberland River yesterday near Ft. Nashborough, police said. Homicide Investigator Al Rivers said the body was discovered by Elzie Starr of Chattanooga who told police he had been walking on the bank and saw the body in a clump of weeds. RIVERS SAID the dead man, who appeared to be about 30, had no identifica J- Staff photo by Dale Ernsberser ought to be put in jail," he said.

During his speech to the Teenage Republicans, Brock said legislators have been buying votes with tax dollars by passing "pork barrel" legislation. HE ALSO lashed out at Gore, saying the senator has not represented the majority of the people. He added that Gore's seniority in the Senate is an issue because "seniority is a method by which power is accumulated." This power can be used for good or bad, Brock said. "SENIORITY has put Albert Gore in a position to do great damage to Tennessee and the country." On the subject of population, Brock said he does not feel it is a "real" problem in America at present. "There is no question our technology will allow us to feed the people," the congressman said.

But, he added, "we could be on the verge of the world's greatest disaster." BROCK SAID a recent bill introduced in Congress proposing to take away tax exemptions for people with too many children will not help with the problem. "The problem is education, not taxation," he added. While at the Ford plant, Brock shook hands with employes at shift change and reiterated his plea for support from Democrats. AS BROCK was standing outside the guard station, one of the security personnel stuck his head out the door and said, jokingly: "I thought Brock was going to give away candy bars out here." Brock replied: "Not 'til after the election," Manager Shot In Holdup Try The manager of the Serv-Quick Dry Cleaners, 2500 12th was in critical condition in Vanderbilt Hospital last night after being shot in a holdup attempt, police said. Harold Hopton, 23, of 3405 West End was in the intensive care unit of the hospital after undergoing surgery.

Homicide investigator Jim Ball quoted another employe of the dry cleaners, Miss Martha Puchalski, as saying two masked men entered the store about 5 p.m. and demanded money. Ball quoted Miss Puchalski as saying Hopton struggled with both men and was shot during the scuffle. After he was wounded, she told police, Hopton grabbed a billy club from behind the counter and drove both men from the store. Ball said it had not been determined last night how much money, if any, was stolen from the store.

Last night, Brock met with a group of supporters of Crockett and Stanly Snodgrass, gubernatorial candMate, at the Noel Hotel. At the Noel, Brock reiterated his opposition to busing to achieve racial balance and said Americans have the right to demand that their children go to neighborhood schools. ON CAMPUS unrest, the congressman said he sees no difference between crime on the campus and crime on "Main Street, USA." "Those who violate the law the state's educational system," he said, "and I urge educators and all other citizens throughout the state to join me in support of his candidacy." In a i 1 1 yesterday, Hooker said: "I am very happy to receive the endorsement of James Newton. I share with him a great concern for the future of education in Tennessee and for the future of the teaching profession.

"HIS EXPRESSION of support is greatly appreciated," Hooker added, "and I look forward to his assistance in my campaign." Another candidate for the Democratic nomination in the Aug. 6 primary, Ralph W. Emerson of Nashville, endorsed Hooker Wednesday. Hooker will face Dr. Win- field Dunn of Memphis, the Republican nominee, in the cBsintemew Show Invites Gore, Brock Sen.

Albert Gore and Rep. William Brock, candidates in the U.S. Senate race in thp Nov. 3 election, have tentatively agreed to a joint appearance on CBS-TV's "Face the Nation" program in early October. Officials from both Gore and Brock offices said that the plans to appear on the show are at present "very tentative." THE TWO candidates were given a choice of appearing on separate 15 minute segments of the program or appearing together for the entire 30-minute show.

Both men said they prefer appearing together for the entire program. Gore indicated that Oct. 4 Is his choice for the program and Brock said that he prefers either Oct. 4 or 11. Generally the program consists of a 30-minute discussion between a panel of newsmen and a well-known guest.

The show is aired nationwide on CBS-TV.

Hus It 100 Oaks! MEMPHIS James Newton, a Memphis school teacher and unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, announced yesterday his endorsement of John J. Hooker Jr.

in the Nov. 3 general election. Hooker, a Nashville attorney and businessman, captured the Democratic nomination for governor in the Aug. 6 primary in which Newton ran last. NEWTON, WHO ran a low-key campaign, said yesterday he entered the primary "to give a voice to the needs of education" and said Hooker is committed to educational progress for Tennessee.

"During the primary campaign," Newton said, "I had By CRAVEN CROWELL Rep. Bill Brock, campaigning in Nashville yesterday for the U.S. Senate, said he is "actively" seeking the support of Democrats who worked for unsuccessful candidates in the primary. "I would like to work in behalf of all people regardless of party," said Brock, a Republican. HE ADDED that "quite a few" of those who supported Hudley Crockett have come to him wanting to help his candidacy.

Brock said he has not talked with Crockett, who was defeated by incumbent Sen. Albert Gore in the Democratic primary. The congressman, who spoke to a group of Teenage Republicans a Vanderbilt the opportunity to talk several times with Mr. Hooker on matters related to education. In these conversations and in his public statements he has shown an awareness of and interest in the problems facing education in Tennessee.

"I was particularly impressed with his presentation before the Tennessee Education Association in Murfreesboro in June in which he pledged his support to the backbone of the TEA program," he said. NEWTON, WHO called an afternoon press conference to announce his endorsement, said that as Tennesseans enter the 1970s, the state will need a governor who is dedicated to progress in education. "I believe John J. Hooker Jr. is committed to uplifting to be the ancient harbor of Sarepta.

AFTER 10 WEEKS of digging by the harbor in April, May and June, Pritchard returned to the museum to complete a preliminary report. He will resume explorations next spring under a six-year Lebanese concession to the university. Only 2 of the site has been excavated, he said, but the work already has uncovered pottery, ruins, kilns and courtyards dating to 1000 B.C. "Below them was evidence of even earlier settlements reaching back to about 1400 B.C.," he said. WORKING WITHIN earshot of occasional artillery fire along the Israeli border 15 miles to the southeast, the archeologists dug down 18 feet.

Among the artifacts unearthed were oil lamps and bronze and iron tools of the Iron Age (1200-600 B.C.). Pritchard said the houses were "closely packed" in ancient Sarepta. He said that soundings indicated the city covered at least 10 acres. The population, he said, would have been at least twice the 10,000 of Serafand today. Phoenician City of Sarepta Unearthed The New York Times News Service PHILADELPHIA The ancient Phoenician city of Sarepta has been unearthed halfway between Tyre and Sidon on the coast of Lebanon.

The city, called Zarephath in the Old Testament, is the first home base of the seafaring colonizers of the iron age to be uncovered by archeologists. JAMES B. Pritchard, director of the expedition, and curator of biblical archeology at the University of Pennsylvania, discussed the discovery in an interview. He said the find would prove "extremely significant" in casting light on the culture of the hardy traders who are credited with transmitting the alphabet from the Middle East to the Western world. Archeologists have probed the ruins of Phoenician outposts from Carthage to Iberia, but until now had found none of the ports of Phoenicia itself.

BYBLOS, BIERUT, Tyre and Sidon, the other major cities at the height of Phoenician influence from 1200 B.C. to 600 B.C., are beyond the reach of archeologists because PRITCHARD first selected an exploration site in 1968. Digging last year turned up a first-century Roman port, much too new to be of more than passing interest to the archeologist. He then shifted his work force of 80 Lebanese a quarter of a mile east to the mooring place used by today's fishermen of Sarafand. The mooring place proved River Bank tion, and the cause of death had not been determined.

The dead man was clothed in a red short-sleeved shirt and blue pants with white stripes. Rivers said the man had two tattoos, one on each arm. One tattoo was almost obscured, police said, while on the other appeared to resemble the "Screaming Eagle" insignia of the Army's 101st Airborne Division. Fingerprints from the body were sent last night to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for possible identification, Rivers said.
