Peace hopes fading By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Hopes for quick progress toward a Middle East peace settlement dimmed today as gunfire crackled across the Jordanian border and Jordan accused Israel of trying to torpedo peace efforts by violating the ceasefire. The Israeli command in Tel Aviv said one Israeli soldier was injured by light arms fire along the border.

It did not say whether the fire came from Arab guerrillas or Jordanian army forces. The Jordanians accused the Israelis Friday of two "flagrant" cease-fire violations, while Israeli i i a indicated their government would not sit down to talk until Egypt pulls back the defensive anti-aircraft missiles it reportedly has moved closer to the Suez Canal truce line. Israeli jets struck at Jordanian army positions and guerrilla camps Friday. The Israeli command said the Jordanian army strongholds were attacked because they assist Palestinian guerrillas and make it possible "for them to act against Israeli civilians." Jordan complained to the United Nations and the United States that the attack was the second within 24 hours and charged that Israel was making a deliberate attempt to sabotage peace efforts. Jordanian U.N.

Ambassador Muhammed El Farra met with U.N. peace envoy Gunnar Jarring and U.S. Ambassador Charles W. Yost and told them Israel was resorting to "sensationalism and fabrications in an attempt to mislead world public opinion and divert it from the Israeli defiances and acts of lawlessness." The Middle East cease-fire plan--initiated by the United States and accepted by Israel, Egypt and Jordan--includes a ban on shooting for at least 90 days. It went into effect a week ago.

In agreeing to the cease- fire, Jordan stipulated it could not be held responsible for attacks by guerrillas, who have vowed to intensify their efforts against Israel. The Israeli attacks came a day after Jerusalem accused Egypt of violating the cease- fire's military standstill provision by moving missile emplacements to within 12 to 18 miles of the Suez Canal. The Egyptians have denied the charge. The latest Israeli charge, filed Friday with the U.N. truce supervisor in Jerusalem, accused the Egyptians of emplacing an additional missile battery and resuming work on incomplete and empty missile sites.

Israeli officials expressed bitter disappointment in the United States, holding Washington Still hope for the release of two hostages in Uruguay MONTEVIDEO, a (AP) A meeting in a Uruguayan jail cell may hold the key to the release of an American agronomist and a Brazilian diplomat held hostage by antigovernment guerrillas. Raul Sendic, 44, a top leader of the Tupamaros rebels who was arrested last week during a search for the hostages, met Friday night with other jailed Tupamaros, presumably to discuss the fate of Claude L. Fly, 65, an agriculture adviser from Fort Collins, and Brazilian Consul Aloysio Mares Dias Gomlde, 41. Police and government officials refused to comment on the meeting in the Punta Carretas prison near Montevideo, where an estimated 200 Tupamaros are imprisoned. But there was speculation that it marked the beginning of some sort of negotiation between the guerrillas and the police or between the jailed guerrillas and the kidnapers.

The kidnapers have demanded the release of alt political prisoners in Uruguay as ransom. The government has refused repeatedly to deal with them. Some sources said the meet- Delta Junction man fined for taking Ball sheep early A Delta Junction man has been fined $700 by the area magistrate for taking a Dall sheep out of season, according to Dick Hemmen of the Department of Fish and Game. The man, Arthur Keaster, was arrested by Hemmen of the department's Protection Division on Aug. 9, one day before the sheep season opened.

Hemmen said he spotted Keaster in the Granite Mountains southeast of Delta when he was on routine patrol by helicopter. Hemmen said the man was charged with taking a sheep out of season and with taking a sheep with less than curl horns. He said Keaster pleaded guilty and ordered to pay the Tine with an $300 suspended for one year. He said $100 of the fine was in lieu of surrendering his weapon. Hemmen said hunters should not be surpriaed to know that protection officials will be using hellcopten for patrol when they are available.

ing indicated that the imprisoned guerrilla leaders have been guiding the Tupamaros movement from prison. A police spokesman, asked his opinion, replied: "Apparently they have." Dias Gomide and Daniel A. Mitrione, 50, an advisor to the Uruguayan police, were kid- naped July 31. Fly was abducted the next week. Mitrione, of Richmond, was murdered by the guerrillas after the government of President Jorge Pacheco Areco refused to capitulate to their ransom demand.

The first word of Friday night's meeting came from a local radio station, which said Sendic was transferred to the prison from his cell at the downtown police headquarters under heavy guard. Neither police nor the high- ranking government officials who accompanied Sendic sat in on the meeting, the broadcast said. It added that the meeting lasted almost an hour. A newspaper in Buenos Aires said Sendic told police when informed of Mitrione's execution: wouldn't have happened if 1 had been free." A house-to-house search by more than 12,000 police and army troops continued today despite a Tupamaros threat this week to kill the hostages if their hiding place is found. responsible for seeing to it that the Egyptians honor the truce and pull their missiles back.

Deputy Premier Yigal Allon said over the army radio that American failure to get the missiles removed would i a i credibility in the Middle East. "I hope that a power of her stature how to honor commitments," Allon said. A dove in the cabinet of Israeli Premier Golda Meir, Tourism Minister Moshe Kol, said the missile controversy has caused a breakdown of Israel's confidence in the United Sbtes. "One can doubt the effectiveness of starting talks before the mutual confidence has returned," he said. Kol said Israel accepted the American plan on the basis of a "clear commitment from the U.S.

government in respect to maintaining the balance of arms and keeping the cease-fire Ransom case still puzzle ANCHORAGE (AP) A man who received $25,000 from Western Airlines in return for information concerning a nonexistent pressure bomb on an airborne flight earlier this week remains at large. R. L. Maley, assistant special agent in charge of the Alaska- Anchorage office of the FBI, said Friday there have been no arrests in the case. He said "We've got several things we're working on," but declined further comment.

An unidentified man telephoned Western Airlines in Anchorage Tuesday and said an altimeter bomb had been placed on a Boeing 720 jet bound from Anchorage to Seattle. The plane had been airborne about an hour when the call was received. The man said that for $25,000 he would call Morris back and tell him where the device was and how to disarm it. A bank messenger delivered the money to a downtown location. The plane landed safely in Seattle and no bomb was found.

The man never called back. and standstill." Defense Minister Moshe Dayan and other Israeli officials have also said they hold the United States responsible. The State Department has been in contact with the Israeli and Egyptian envoys to Washington and has said it is studying the dispute. The Washington correspondent of the Israeli afternoon newspaper Maariv said high U.S. officials had told him there was no chance the United States would be able to persuade the Egyptians and their Russian advisers to remove the missiles.

The officials indicated they were more concerned with cooling down the dispute and pushing toward negotiations in spite of it, the correspondent added. Malaysian Prime Minister Abdul Rahman said in Kuala Lumpur today that he has called for an immediate meeting of foreign ministers of all Islamic nations to back the Egyptian position in any peace talks that develop out of the cease-fire. He added that only Indonesia has accepted the invitation. In Beirut, the weekly magazine Events said the United States has proposed a solution to the problem of Palestinian refugees. The magazine said the proposal calls for Israel to accept 40,000 of the IV: million who now live in refugee camps, while the rest would be resettled in Arab countries under a $1 billion program underwritten by the United States, Japan and countries of Western Europe.

Haley grips Alaska Natives claims bill By C.ROBERT ZELNICK Washington Correspondent Rep. James A. Haley, the man who, in his capacity as chairman of the House subcommittee on Indian Affairs, holds a life and death grip over the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act, is a 70-year-old Democrat from Sarasota, Fla. He has a shock of silky white hair that falls discreetly across his right brow. He smokes one fat green cigar after another and his cheeks have taken on that ruddy glow that one fanciesalifetimeof i i i a necessary achieve.

He is direct but courtly, lapses easily into homily and idiom, and, one guesses, mourns only the passing of court house politics and the i not necessarily in that order. He is a charming man, charming enough to have disarmed many a potential foe in his lifetime. Charming enough, it would seem, to tame a lion, which may not be quite as far fetched as it sounds. Before coming to Washington 18 years ago, Haley was president of a i Sarasota institution, "The Greatest Show on Earth," otherwise known as Ringling Bros. Bamum and Bailey Circus.

"I guess you might say I came from the Big Show to the side show," he says, the line delivered with a friendly wink and just enough sense of timing to tell the listener it is not the first time it has been used. On the Hill, Haley is regarded as a man of simple truths and great existential wisdom. He quotes the Constitution easily and verbatim. He exactly which prerogatives are his, and he is jealous of every one of them. A a i chaired i subcommittee for 15 years, he has a lot of prerogatives.

"The Indian Affairs Committee was one of our standing committees until reorganization," he says. "It is the only congressional committee set up specifically by the Constitution of the United States, Article 1, Section 8, to be exact. I could have had any subcommittee under Interior, but I just happen to like this one. A man can find out about a lot of A i a i on this committee." Not all of the history that Haley has found out about has been to his liking. "The Indian people are the most harassed, pushed around folks in the history of our nation," he says with conviction.

"We put jie Indian off in remote areas. We killed his initiative, tried to make a farmer out of a hunter. We signed treaties and broke them. We made promises and didn't keep them. The Indian people are really a second nation within us but we have treated them as second class citizens of our own.

The blackest pages in our history concern our dealings with Indians." a Alaskans Haley in a not altogether sympathetic light. Alone among members of the House Interior Committee, he voted against the Statehood Act of 1958. "I didn't think Alaska could finance the of statehood," he explains, and then, with the dogmatism of a man unused to being proven wrong, adds, "and Alaska fish airlift slated for next year ANCHORAGE (AP) Fish from Alaska will be flown to four continents next year from an Anchorage cold storage plant under lease to Whitney-Fidalgo Seafoods. Sam Rubenstein, chairman and president of Whitney Fidai- go, announced plans Friday for the international airlifting of up to pounds of frozen fish daily. Marine convicted of killing Vietnamese women, children DA NANG, Vietnam (AP) An 18-year-old Marine was convicted today of the murder of 15 South Vietnamese women and children in a village southwest of here last Feb.

19 and sentenced to five years in prison. A jury of three officers and two senior enlisted men returned the verdict after deliberating nearly all day in the case of Pfc. Samuel G. Green of Cleveland, Ohio. The general court martial board handed down the sentence 2H hours later.

In addition to the prison term, Green was reduced to private, given a dishonorable discharge from the Marine Corps and ordered to forfeit all pay and allowances. The youthful Marine, the third of four to be tried in the case thus far and the second onn convicted, remarked to a -lend moments after the sentencing: "Five years for that?" The conviction on unpremeditated murder could have carried a life sentence. Green was convicted of 15 counts of murder, involving the deaths of four women and children. He was acquitted of a 15th count involving another woman. He said the fish includini salmon, halibut, shrimp, crab and mollusks as well as some fresh-water fish will depart Anchorage daily on international carriers.

Whitney Fidalgo is one of the nation's largest seafood-processors. "Our plan is to get international markets and transport the commodity right to those markets," said John Borseth, Anchorage plant manager for the firm. "This will really put Anchorage on the air map." Borseth said the Anchorage plant has the technical capacity to handle 80,000 pounds of fish daily, but that it would be difficult to keep the facility supplied with that much fish. He said a cold storage plant in Yakutat would help feed the Anchorage plant for processing. Markets to be served overnight include major cities in Europe, the Far East, Australia and New Zealand and North America.

Eight international airlines will fly the fresh and frozen seafoods from Anchorage. Rubenstein said the Seattle- based company anticipates annual sales of (2 to million. In the past, the firm has been airlifting fish to foreign markets by trans-shipment through Seattle. I'm not sure you would have been able to make it without the oil strikes. Further, I argue that all these problems like land claims should have been resolved before you came into the union.

And you'd be surprised at how many of our colleagues would agree with me on that point now." Perhaps, but the question of greatest immediate concern is where Haley stands on the claims legislation before him. Here it is somewhat more difficult to pin the chairman down. He criticizes the Senate bill as "a can of worms," but does not seem to i i i provisions--he likes the idea of a i a i i a of state revenue participation, and favors, if anything, a greater land grant than that contained in the Senate bill, even suggesting that the Natives should have priority of selection over the state. What then doesn't he like about the Senate bill. "It's sloppy," he rasps.

"Too many corporations, too many places where people other than Natives can get the benefits. It's going to take a lot of time and a lot of work." Haley says he is committed to getting a bill out of committee and on to the floor of the House. Committee counsel Louis Sigler will be working on the'draft while the House stands in recess until Sept. 7 and before the first of four executive sessions scheduled for Sept. 17.

"We're just going to have to play it by ear," says Haley. "I'd like to get a bill out because the longer we fool a with it, the more confusing things are going to get in Alaska." One leaves Haley with the impression that he is committed to passing a bill, and a good one at that, though at the present time, he is less than certain of exactly what he wants in it. One thing he does want though is a little bit more Haley and a little bit less Jackson in the bill. That, after all, is one of his prerogatives. REP.

Morrison said this is in addition to the $5 million Gov. Keith H. Miller said earlier this month was being used to purchase insured notes of the Farmers Home Administration.

Morrison said the latest investment will be in mortgages on mobile homes and on houses costing less than $26,000. The first $20 million became available to banks and savings and loan associations last month, Morrison said, being allocated among the state's 16 institutions according to the capital of each institution. He said the state is participating in conventional housing mortgages to the extent of 75 per cent, with the banks picking up the balance. "Most of the federally guaranteed paper has a secondary market," Morrison said, "and we're providing a secondary market on other types of secured loans. This should provide almost an immediate impetus to housing." He said the entire $25 million is being used for new loans, rather than the purchase of existing ones, and he expects the entire amount to be consumed in 60 to 90 days.

Morrison said the investment may tend to bring down interest rates. "As we increase the supply of money, we expect interest rates to drop he said, "but the state is not going to dictate this." He added that the state's participation eventually may exceed (25 million, once the program gets off the (round..
