But repesentatives of the New Mexico Federation of Teachers members hinted of teacher strikes if no additional funding is appropriated this year. Anaya, who has called two special sessions this year to deal with supplemental education funding, contends that additional money for teacher and faculty raises is badly needed for the 1985-86 school year. Anaya said he would continue Saturday night to try to sway legislators to support an additional funding plan.

But referring to the Senate's adjournment, he said, "This demonstrates that there are a handful in the Senate that are hell bent MORE: See SENATE pn PAGE A4 House conservatives argued that it would be futile to continue working because of the Senate's action, which came in a 22-19 vote less than five hours after the second special legislative session of the year commenced Saturday. Senate President Pro-Tern Les Houston, D-Bernalillo, a conservative coalition leader, said, "Whether we come back or not, I think the Senate has made its statement on this issue (education spending) for the year." Jay Miller, a representative of the National Education Association, said, "My feeling is the House ought to adjourn and go home, too. "Why waste the taxpayers' money getting bills ready to send over to the Senate when the Senate has already demonstrated it is not interested in dealing with SANTA FE The volatile New Mexico Senate, ignoring Gov. Toney Anaya's education1 funding proposals, adjourned abruptly and headed home Saturday while a sharply divided House recessed until this morning. House conservatives predicted that the House also would adjourn today, but a vote Saturday on adjournment deadlocked 35-35 in the 70-member chamber.

If the House does not adjourn, the Senate would have to go back into session by Thursday. One chamber of the Legislature cannot adjourn for more than three days, Sundays excluded, without adjournment of the other. The House was to return to session at 8 a.m. today. ft.

Budd Hebert, R-Chavez-Eddy, who championed 1985 legislation that could have led to billions of dollars in sales from a C02 pipeline owned primarily by Mobil and Shell affiliated companies, was awarded a lucrative oil drilling contract by a Mobil affiliate last summer. Hebert's bill would have eliminated state severance and emergency school taxes on hard-to-reach oil that can be recovered by injecting underground reservoirs with carbon dioxide The measure was designed to encourage what is known as tertiary oil recovery, which in turn would create an expanded market for the C02.

Romeu Tuma, the federal police chief in Sao Paulo, said the statement by Gita Stammer, a Hungarian immigrant, "was the most important evidence so far" indicating the body was that of Mengele. He said Mrs. Stammer told police a man hired to work on her farm identified himself as Mengele, and at one point a man who she knew only as "Hans" arrived from West Germany with a large amount of money for the individual who said he was Mengele. Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal said his original skepticism about Mengele being dead was lessened when he learned that West German police had targeted the grave MORE: See MENGELE on PAGE A9 According to the patent, if the universi ty uses the land for other than archaeological purposes, or attempts to alienate the land, it reverts back to the U.S.

government. A land-swap compromise may require an act of Congress. "Only Congress can change those pa But UNM Regent John Paez is not happy with the proposed swap because he said land in the area has been selling for as much as $6,000 an acre. Santa Ana's plans to develop adjacent land for a greyhound race track, motel and other uses could raise the value of UNM's tract. In 1981, Santa Ana paid $2 million to an individual for 300 acres of land with gravel deposits north of the tract.

The UNM administration, citing an agreement with others involved in the negotiations, declined to release details of the proposed trade. UNM has never sought to have its land appraised because use of the land is restricted by a 50-year-old federal patent. The patent granted UNM ownership of 218 acres surrounding and including the tents, said Assistant U.S. Attorney Her bert Becker. Becker declined to com Santa Ana Pueblo and the University of New Mexico reportedly are close to settling a 5-year-old dispute over who owns 11 acres of prime riverbank due east of Coronado State Monument.

Under a compromise under negotiation and opposed by at least one UNM regent the university would swap about 120 acres west of the monument for 26 acres east of the monument, including the disputed riverbank. State park and state monument officials are optimistic that a settlement is forthcoming, and hail the land swap as preserving public access to the archaeological ruins without losing mountain and river views. ment directly on the case, saying, "We're just starting to negotiate." Paez thinks the university should explore having those patent restrictions lifted before going ahead with a swap.

Infusion of private capital is a premise central to the envisioned development. The dog-racing proposal, which has been the focus of public attention, appears mired in the bureaucracy in Washington with no decision in sight. Although tribal officials say the track would help stimulate the pueblo's economy, the development plan doesn't hinge on dog racing. "Absolutely nothing you see is contingent on the racetrack nothing, nothing, nothing," observes Andre Dumont, tribal economic development coordinator.
