REPUBLIC MAIL Rhodes urges cooperation on inflation Paul Dean Gear hunt is test for sailboat buff The ArizonaRepublic Tuesday, Aug. 27, 1974 (Section B) Page, 1 By GIL NEAL Government alone can no longer control and labor and management will have to cooperate to get the U.S. economy back on an even keel, Rep. John J. Rhodes, said in Phoenix Monday.

Speaking at a press conference at the Phoenix Press Club, Rhodes, the House minority leader, said that among congressmen there is no real fear of a general depression. "There is concern, but no fear of a real depression," he said. "Our economy is still quite healthy. But there are few- $300 billion, and to balance the 1976 budget "somewhere below $330 billion. If we do that, then I think we've done a good job for the country." On other topics, Rhodes said: The mood in Washington since former President Richard Nixon's resignation and Ford's assumption of the office "is so much different I can hardly describe it.

Republicans whose chins were dragging the ground are now nine feet tall. Things are looking much better for Republicans. People used to ask me how many seats I thought we'd lose in November. Now they're asking me how many I think we'll gain." He said he is making no predictions. He supports President Ford's position on amnesty for draft dodgers.

"I think we should make it possible for anyone who wants to rehabilitate himself to do so." He thinks the House and Senate will confirm former New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller as vice president "overwhelmingly and very quickly before Congress adjourns for' the election. It would be unconsionable for Congress to adjourn without confirming Continued on Page B-2 er products and more demand and more competition for. them." Rhodes said he thought reactivation of the President's Cost of Living Council "will help the economy," and added that he did not expect a return of fed-, eral wage and price controls. "We may have an income policy, but it would be voluntary," he said.

"The main thing I think will occur is labor leaders, management and businessmen will realize that government can no longer control inflation by itself. They will have to help." Rhodes said he expects the Congress to trim the 1975 budget to less than First day at school Republic photos by Roy Coswiy right, with his new friends, Monique Lawrence, left, and Masako Lijima.

But no hobbyist has invested In more superficial collectibles than a sailboat nut like me. First, many months ago, came the challenge of gearing up the boat with three distinct motives in mind.

No item of equipment should be new and store-bought because untarnished fittings stamp a novice mariner. Most acquisitions must be handed down, foraged from junk shops or filched from friends because there's character, to say nothing of economy, in certain antiquity. Possessions must be nautically salty because originality reflects knowledge and experience even from a skipper whose only blue water experiences come from reading C. S. Forester novels while becalmed on Lake Pleasant.

As a I own a Danforth anchor that spent two summers gathering barnacles on the bottom of Kino Bay. The boat's ice chest is a dented, Little Brown Jug cooler from the days when such things contained church keys and ice picks in slots in the My son donated a lunch pail (when he was asleep) that was painted white and converted into a first aid kit. Patio sales yielded a fire extinguisher, a cast-iron skillet and a ship's lantern made in Hong Kong and from magnificent copper. 1 Then came the hunt for sailing togs, the real, things and not nylon jackets from Yellow Front or phoney commodores' qaps from a Newport Beach I searched tor 'a genuine, serge, slit-pocketed and eight-buttoned pea coat. Sadly, hippies have adopted them as cold-weather uniforms and all military surplus stores are bare of pea coats.

The U.S. Navy, mindful of San Diego's promising black market in blue jackets, has plugged all holes leaking pea coats from ships' stores. It took me seven months to find the only two coats in the United States. One came from a military surplus warehouse in Philadelphia and the other from the Disabled Veterans Association thrift store in Oceanside, Calif. I have a real skipper's hat, sans badge, which cost $2.95 at a San Diego pawnbrokers.

It will have a badge, gold wire and Royal Navy and salt tarnished, as soon as I hear back from an old buddy who runs a military souvenir stor in England. Deck Shoes? Mine are genuine rope soles fro San Francisco. Sweater? A white turtlcneck Arran from Northern Ireland. Shirts? White, short-sleeved, tropical issue, U.S. Navy, complete with first-class electrician's mate chevrons, and bought for 45-cents apiece from Goodwill.

Lump all of this good stuff with an outboard motor, ropes, boat hook, life jacket, tumblers, alcohol stove, portable head and flotation cushions and I have enough goodies to fill half a garage and two closets. I am the compleat sailor, aye-aye. There's only one problem. While I was preparing to go sailing the economy was sinking. Now I can't afford to buy a sailboat.

Public defender is critical County urged to refuse staff increase for prosecutor criminals, or that the voting public favors doing away with it," wrote Lee. "The popular fallacy that plea bargaining is somehow bad should be cut down hip and thigh. Plea bargaining is essential because through it the state recognizes the degree of culpability and seriousness involved in each class of offense and exercises its discretion to be lenient or iron fisted. "The county attorney, I believe, wants additional attorneys so he can bargain fewer cases and try more." Lee added the county attorney's of Continued on Page B-2 By NEIL MAZUREK County Public Defender Ross Lee Monday described his counterpart in the judicial system County Attorney Moise Berger as blindly overzealous and inefficient, and urged the denial of Berger's request for Additional men. In a strongly worded letter to the County Board of Supervisors, Lee laced his arguments with some of the harshest criticism ever expressed against Berger.

He said the county attorney's policies, if fully enacted, would eventually require more Superior Court judges, Dr. H. K. Newburn dies; former president of ASU more courtrooms, and even more deputy county attorneys and public defenders. "The county, perhaps, cannot afford to bankroll an exercise in prosecutorial imaginations which promise chimerical justice by prosecuting every putative crime with the same blind zeal," said Lee.

Berger, repeatedly rebuked by county supervisors in his quest for additional staff, is scheduled to repeat his appeal in a meeting with supervisors next Tuesday.

The Joint Legislative Budget Committee took only 35 minutes to cancel its July 25 decision to put the prison for 250 young adults at Riggs and McQueen roads, near Chandler. Sen. Boyd Tenney, R-Prescott, committee chairman, said he would refer the site selection again to the subcommittee headed by Sen.

Hal Runyan, R-Litchfield Park, which has been unable to find an acceptable site for 18 months. The subcommittee was specifically directed to check Gila Bend, after Mayor Will Williams made another plea to put the prison there. But House Majority Leader Burton Barr, R-Phoenix, told newsmen afterwards, "It appears to me there is a feeling on the committee to put the prison in Florence." He noted that the antiquated maximum security prison already is there, and the new facility for young offenders would meet with local approval. "My vote is to go to Florence," the influential legislator said, noting that Gila Bend has housing and water problems. The Florence site also drew support from Rep.

Tom Goodwin, R-Tucson, chairman of the House Appropriations Committee. Rep.

He said Miranda was unaware the gun was in the car.

Prosecutor Hugo Zettler objected to Mrs. Schultz being represented at the hearing by attorney Mathis Becker, a member of Florence's law firm, who obtained a divorce for Mrs. Schultz in January. Zettler argued it would be a conflict of interest for Becker to represent Mrs. Schultz.

Zettler protested to the court that he overheard Florence tell Becker to advise Mrs. Schultz not to answer a question by Zettler as to her relationship with Miranda prior to her divorce. In his comments to the court, which Continued on Page B-4 and undermanned because of new court procedures, Berger seeks five additional attorneys for his present staff of 71 lawyers. Lee counterargued that Berger's inflexible "no deal" policy for defendants charged with certain types of crimes, and his insistence on trying possession of marijuana charges as felonies instead of misdemeanors, has created the problem. "The county attorney, it is said, like to do away with plea bargaining altogether on the ground that the state should not bargain with Auto parking review rules may be eased The U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency proposed a slight relaxation of a controversial parking-facility review Monday by increasing the size of the facilities requiring a review from 50 spaces to 250 spaces. The review, which would determine if the facility, would cause air-quality violations, is scheduled to become mandatory Jan. 1. It has been heavily criticized by public and business officials in Phoenix. Phil Wondra, of EPA's regional office in San Francisco, said in a telephone interview that the proposals were scheduled to be published in the Federal Register Monday and that hearings would be held on them in Phoenix and Tucson probably in October.

Another change proposed by EPA would increase the area to which the review would be applied to all of Maricopa and Pima counties. Previously, they were limited to Phoenix, Tucson, Tempe, Glendale and Mesa. Church parking lots and residential parking facilities would be exempted from the review. Wondra said EPA attempted to get a Continued on Page B-2 cated Thursday that the firm had $31,548 in available cash and $124,094 in unpaid bills. He appointed Homer G.

He resided with his family at 1000 E. Laguna Drive, Tempe. Memorial services will be at 7 p.m. today in First Congregational Church, 101 E.

Sixth Tempe. Cremation will follow. Considered one of the nation's most experienced administrators in higher education, Newburn's career included more than two decades as a university president or college dean. Newburn was president of the University of Oregon from 1945 to 1953, the University of Montana from 1959 to 1963, Cleveland State University from 1965 to 1966 and again from 1972 to 1973, and Arizona State University from 1969 to 1971. He joined the ASU faculty in 1963 as.

a professor of education and director of the university's Center for the Study of Higher Education. He was dean of the ASU college of education from 1966 to 1969. Dr. Newburn returned to the ASU Center for the Study of Higher Education after completion of his fifth college presidency in 1973. He was associated with the center at the time of his death.

Succeeded at ASU by current President John W. Schwada, Dr. Newburn took a leave of absence from July 1971 to February 1972 to conduct an investigation of the organization and administration of British universities for the Carnegie Corp. of New York. Born in Cuba, 111., Dr.
