Name Address futures prices ran up more than 4 cents a bushel to a new seasonal high In three deliveries on the Chicago Board of Trade today. The price spurt, which lost steam after nearly an hour, was attributed to the government's report late Thursday showing that soybean stocks as of July 1 were considerably below 1970 and even well under the trade's expectations. Meanwhile corn prices sagged 2 cents a bushel to seasonal lows in all five options traded. Wheat prices were down well over I cent. Oats were unchanged to a little lower in extreme light trade.

The boom in soybeans was reflected In the market for its end-products with oil futures rising as much as 20 points and most deliveries of meal rising 30 or more points. feed broilers were a little higher in very slack trading. After about an hour, wheat was 1'4 to cent a bushel lower, September 1.51; corn was 2 to lower, September 1.38; oats were unchanged to lower, September 67 cents and soybeans were 2 to higher, August 3.5114 WHAT'S IN A NAME? A lot! For example, for over 80 years the name Germania Savings and Loan has stood for strength, stability and financial responsibility. And, as many of you know from experience, the name Germania has also symbolized a warm, friendly, understanding place to do business. Now, we've got a new name! We have changed from a State chartered to a Federally chartered savings and loan association, and henceforth, will be known as Germania Federal Savings and Loan.

As always, we will be offering our customers the highest return allowed by regulation on savings, as well as a complete range of home loan services. Yes, our name may have changed, but our service will continue to be warm, friendly, understand- above all, professional as it has been for over 80 years!

LOUIS 355 0700 GROWTH FINANCIAL STABILITY Gateway Council is now 'action oriented' Complaints by a top area federal official that the East- West Gateway Coordination Council is not "action-oriented" and has failed to come up with comprehensive plans are being answered by a change in the agenda's policy, Gateway Council executive director Eugene Moody said today. Moody said a front-page story in a St.

Louis newspaper detailing the complaints by Elmer E. director of the St. Louis area office of the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development was "not new news, since Elmer Smith made those statements back in March." Since then, the agency had changed its work program to meet Smith's objections, Moody said.

He said last month's adoption of a St. Louis Rapid Transit Authority by the Gateway board "is the kind of action (Smith) was referring to." Moody said a regional Open Space and Parks plan had already been completed. A regional water and sewer plan will be done by Sept. 30 and a comprehensive housing plan by the end of the year. Moody said.

Moody said the slowness In getting into other areas was caused because the Gateway Council was created specifically in the beginning to do transportation planning only.

Justices Richard M.

Sims and Norman Elkington concurred in the majority decision on an appeal from a criminal abortion case in Alameda County. It upheld the 1967 act provision which restricts abortions to the first 20 weeks of pregnancy. "We are impelled to considtr that a woman has a constitutional right to terminate her pregnancy, subject only to reasonably imposed state restrictions designed to safeguard the health of the woman and to protect the advanced fetus," the majority decision said. More than 62,000 legal abortions were performed in California last year, the state Department of Health reported. This compared with 5,030 in 1968, the first full year of the 1867 law, and 15,339 in 1969.
