dollar opened lower on European foreign exchanges today, reflecting its fall to a new postwar low on the Tokyo foreign exchange. Gold opened $1.375 lower in London at $199.25 an ounce from Friday's all-time high closing rate of $201.625. In Zurich gold opened unchanged at $201.25. The pound opened at $1.9345, up 95 points from Friday's $1.9250. Dealers said the dollar was dragged down by growing concern about inflation prospects in the United States.

The dollar opened in Frankfurt at 2.0400 marks, down from 2.0410 Friday. In Zurich it opened at 1.7530 Swiss francs, up marginally from Friday's all-time low of 1.7525. But in the first 30 minutes of trading it slipped to a new all-time low of 1.74375 Swiss francs. Swiss dealers said the fall was partly due to the new low against the yen in Tokyo with the Japanese central bank refusing to intervene any further after last week's massive support, which did nothing to support the dollar's slide. "People have gone mad," said one dealer.

"It be the summer heat." In Paris the dollar opened at 4.3800 francs, down from 4.3825 at Friday's close. In Brussels it opened at 32.8650 Belgian francs, down from 32.89, in Amsterdam at 2.2047 guilders down from 2.2090 guilders, and in Milan at 843.00 lire down from 844.35 lire Friday. In Tokyo, the dollar today plummeted to a new postwar low and came perilously close to the 190 yen mark before rallying slightly to close the morning at 190.65 Japanese yen on the Tokyo foreign exchange market. Reflecting its Friday plunge below the 200-yen mark on the London and New York markets, the dollar opened the week at 191.80 yen, down from 192.10 yen at Friday's close.

can happen along the way, and probably will including major changes. With a little luck, the tax cut might actually be increased. Some members in the House and Senate want to make the cut bigger; some think it's too big already. Some want to redirect it to benefit the lower income brackets that arc all but ignored in the House bill; some think the rich are being picked on. And all of It could evaporate if President Carter makes good on his threat to veto any substantial capital-gains tax cuts.

He feels they benefit the wealthy more than the average taxpayers, the bill is loaded with such cuts. If the bill survives and becomes law, chances are you would never really hear a new jingle in your pocket. More than likely, you probably would only notice the government taking a little less from your pay. About $10.4 billion would be earmarked for individual tax relief again, if the bill becomes law. Treasury sources estimate the average taxpayer would have his taxes cut about $163, but note that somewhere in the country there are 2.2 million people whose taxes actually would be increased by terms The committee plugged a loophole that some millionaires used legitimately to pay no taxes at all.

Now they will pay a mimimum tax. But there were only about 200 of them, so most of the 2.2 million Americans hit with higher taxes are taxpayers already. And you would find some fondly remembered items missing. The bill would repeal' the deduction for state and local gasoline taxes, and the $35-per person tax credit. On a brighter side, prospects are good that Congress will ignore Treasury objections and keep the provision sponsored by Rep.

Sam. M. Gibbons, letting a homeowner take a tax-free, once-in-a-Iifetime profit on the sale of a house. But to qualify he must have lived in the home for two years, and his profit not cecd $100,000. That provision would cost the Treasury $750 million in lost tax revenues, with taxpayers in the $20,000 to $50,000 bracket benefiting from about $500 million of it.

Treasury officials have opposed such measures dn grounds that homeowners already get more tax advantages than renters, particularly property-tax and mortgage-interest deductions.

(UPI) A Harvard University study recommends the government use its tax policy to increase television exposure for political candidates, much the same way it tries to spur home buying. The study released Sunday urges that networks and local television stations be allowed tax breaks in order to make it more financially attractive for them to increase political programming. The study said the government should allow stations and networks to write off both revenue lost in making campaign spots and money spent airing campaign-related public service shows. The authors of the report advocated temporary lifting of regulations re'quiring stations to provide candidates equal time. That would allow authorities to determine what effect such a move would have on a campaign.

The equal-time rule has irked broadcasters, who have found it keeps them from doing campaign programs because they must give equal time to minor party hopefuls. The report was written by the Campaign Study Group of Harvard's Institute of Politics. The group is made up of professors from a number of universities and top campaign workers. The study also recommends further study of proposals that federal subsidies be given to candidates. However, the body of the study dealt with the recommendation the government encourage more campaign ads by using its tax policy much the way it offers breaks to homeowners by allowing them to deduct interest costs from taxes.

The report said broadcasters offer candidates the lowest possible rate for their ads, creating a loss when compared to rates charged for commercial sponsors. It strongly recommended that networks and stations be Heavy rains associated with the season's first tropical storm helped ease drought conditions in south Texas today and thunderstorms drenched parts of the Ohio Valley. Tropical Storm Amelia, which intensified from a tropical depression in a few hours late Sunday, moved ashore north of Brownsville early today, carrying gusty winds and heavy rains but not the potency of a hurricane. The rains were welcome in south and central portions of Texas, where drought in the past few months has caused lakes and reservoirs to drop significantly. Thunderstorms, which moved through the Ohio Valley Sunday, caused some property damage in Nicholasville and Richmond, the National Weather Service said.

There were no reports of injuries. A flash flood watch for southwestern Indiana was lifted early today. Another flash flood watch allowed to deduct the difference from their taxes, encouraging stations to offer more time for political ads. The report did not support a plan requiring outlets to offer a specific amount of public- service programming, saying it was unworkable. Instead, it returned to tax incentives as the best way to get the job done.

The report also recommended; be required to release to local stations 20 prime-time, 30-second spots lor sale to candidates during a campaign season in order to increase the number of such ads. -The FCC, because of reluctance by some stations to take political ads outside the campaign season, should prohibit broadcasters from refusing them during noh- campaign season. Congress standardize credit and payment practices for political advertising and establish an agency to monitor them. for southern Arizona expired as thunderstorms moved out of the area.
