Probation revocation asked HOUSTON A motion has been filed to revoke the probation of a Houston man who was convicted last year of shooting his comatose father in what was claimed to be an act of mercy.

An assistant district attorney filed a motion before State District Judge Ted Poe asking that probation be revoked for Billy Ray Clore, 26, a Houston man who was convicted last July of shooting his dying father. Assistant District Attorney George Godwin asked' Poe to revoke Clore's probation on the grounds that he violatetf terms of the probation by drinking and by leaving Harris County without permission. In a controversial decision last July, Clore was given a three-year probated sentence after he admitted that he entered the nursing home room of his father and shot the comatose man in the head. Clore claimed he shot his father to end his suffering. Testimoney at Clore's trial showed that the father, Robert Clore, 62, suffered from kidney and heart disease and may not have died from the gunshot.

Trade with Japan, U.S. slips MOSCOW Tense U.S.-Soviet relations caused a 15 percent decrease in trade between the superpowers last year, and Soviet trade with Japan fell by 18 percent, a ranking Soviet trade official said Wednesday. Gennady K. Zhuravlev, first deputy minister of foreign trade, said overall Soviet trade with Western nations increased by only 1.7 percent from 1982 to 1983 because of sanctions imposed by the Reagan administration. He also blamed Japan for the slow growth in trade, saying the Japanese government last year followed Reagan's lead in limiting contacts with the Soviet Union.

"The serious worsening of relations between the Soviet Union and the United States in recent years has left its mark on trade There is still the possibility that more trade between us can develop, but it is up to Washington to normalize relations," Zhuravlev told a news conference. U.S.-Soviet trade fell from $2.8 billion in 1982 to $2.4 billion last year, he said. Japanese-Soviet trade declined from $4.7 billion in 1982 to $3.8 billion in 1983, the first decrease since World War II, he added. Work on nuke plant halts MANCHESTER, N.H. Construction was suspended indefinitely at the embattled Seabrook nuclear power plant Wednesday, as utility officials halted work on the first reactor because of strained finances.

The announcement by Public Service Company of New Hampshire came nearly three weeks after the plant's 16 owners voted to cancel the stalled second reactor by Dec. 1, contingent on a plan to allow the utility to recover its $300 million investment. Work has been virtually stopped on the second reactor i since last September at the plant, which was once the scene of massive protests by environmentalists who feared the facility would be unsafe. Work halted at the twin-reactor plant at 3:20 Wednesday, with all but 1,000 of the 6,200 workers let go, said William Dernckson, Seabrook's project manager. "While we are aware of the very real hardship this action will create for the affected workers and their families, we believe prudence dictates a brief shutdown of construction until the uncertainty surrounding PSNH and the Seabrook project is resolved, "he said.
