October 4, 1979 ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH 2A nation Soviet Grain Buy May Set Record hold additional talks in the interim if necessary, he said. If the Russians take advantage of the 25 million ton offer, they will buy more fatten, grain from the United States than in any previous year. The massive grain Villi The Russians did not indicate if they would buy 25 million tons or how much would be corn and how much wheat. But Hathaway said experience indicates the Russians usually buy three bushels of U.S.

corn for every bushel of wheat. He also left open the possibility that the United States may offer more grain if the Russians need it. U.S. and Russian agreed to stay in close contact prior to the next scheduled meeting, set for spring, and WASHINGTON (UPI) Trouble-some issues between the superpowers (ailed to impede an American offer permitting the Soviet Union to buy a record 25 million metric tons of U.S. corn and wheat in the coming 12 months.

At a news briefing, Agriculture Undersecretary Dale Hathaway said the issues of Senate ratification of the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty and Russian troops in Cuba were not mentioned in talks Wednesday with a Russian team, led by Deputy Trade Minister Boris Gordeev. i Typically, non-agricultural issues are not mentioned at the semiannual bilateral talks on Russian purchases of U.S. grain, Hathaway said. Administration officials agreed that other issues would not Interfere with record sales of grain to the Russians, who are expected to produce a smaller crop this year as a result of drought in May and June. Already, the Russians have contracted for about 8 million tons of the 25 million ton total they are now permitted to buy for the fiscal year that began Oct.

1. Ford Talks Advance The United Auto Workers union is reporting progress in contract talks with Ford Motor brightening prospects for a strike-free round of auto industry negotiations. UAW executives said Wednesday that bargainers at the nation's No. 2 automaker are inching toward a peaceful settlement, although several serious issues remain unresolved as the strike deadline of midnight tonight quickly approaches. sales of 1972-73, which changed the picture of U.S.

agricultural trade, totaled about 18 million tons. Hathaway emphasized that sales now differ from past controversial sales because the United States expects to produce a record corn crop and has adequate reserves.

Cutters were expected to reach the refugees today.

The Coast Guard didn't have enough of the high-protein survival kits it normally uses in such situations to feed all of the stranded refugees, a spokesman said hence the peanut butter. Suspect Arrested In Pool Poisoning A person evicted last month from a large apartment complex in the San Jose, area has been arrested in connection with the poisoning of two apartment swimming pools with Silvex, a herbicide suspected of causing leukemia, police reported today. At least 30 residents of the two apartment complexes have complained to health department officials about side effects from swimming in the pools. WINDSOR LOCKS, Conn. (AP) A freak tornado described as "a big monster" killed one person, left more than 100 hospitalized and caused damage estimated at well over $100 million as it churned through north-central Connecticut.

The Wednesday afternoon twister, which accompanied a storm that had 86 mph winds, destroyed a collection of rare airplanes and blew away houses and businesses through parts of Windsor and Windsor Locks. "They wandered around saying, 'Gee, my house just blew the Rev. James Silver said of the survivors of the storm. Silver's Congregational Church in Poquonock lost its roof and steeple to the winds, rare in New England. Gov.

Ella T. Grasso, who lives in Windsor Locks, declared an 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew in the stricken area to prevent looting and vandalism. She dispatched 200 National Guardsmen to enforce the curfew and patrol the area, a swath about three miles long and up to a mile wide.

Mrs. Grasso, whose home was not damaged, said an application for federal disaster aid was being drawn up. Bradley International, the state's major airport, was closed today, its regular and backup electrical power knocked out and the airfield strewn with the splintered wreckage of helicopters and airplanes. Rescue efforts after the storm were hindered because most of the Connecticut National Guard's helicopter fleet was destroyed. The few available helicopters were flown in from other parts of the state to airlift the most seriously injured to hospitals while roads remained blocked by debris.

The funnel cloud unexpected by weather forecasters destroyed the airport's Bradley Air Museum and its collection of rare and antique military aircraft. There was no count of the number left homeless. Authorities are continuing the search to determine School Strike Ends In Indianapolis Nearly all the 3,356 striking Indianapolis teachers returned to work Wednesday after 28 days off the job in a dispute over contract length.

Meanwhile, striking San Francisco teachers say a judge's ruling won't slow their walkout.

The judge issued an order barring union leaders from encouraging a three-week walkout, a state official said. i Hi mi AP world All That's Left Ellen and Edward Miler removing salvageable items from the remains of their home, which was destroyed by a tornado that struck Windsor, Wednesday afternoon.
