He and his longtime a i a Theodore J. Isaacs, a lawyer, were con- victed Qf conspiracy, fraud, i and income tax evasion. Kerner also was convicted of perjury and making false statements to a federal agent. Judge Robert L. Taylor of U.S.

James R. Thompson, U.S. district attorney who prose- i a newsmen he favored prison sentences for Kerner, 64, and Isaacs, 62. "When the time for sen- tencing comes it's not conceivable that I would agree to probation," Thom- pson told newsmen. Kerner's lawyer said he would ask Judge Taylor for "a judgment of acquittal" and if that was denied, he would move for a new trial.

In a statement Kerner de- clared, "This battle is even more important than life it- self because it involves my reputation and honor, which are dearer tban life itself, and I intend to continue this battle."

The government said the stock was made available to them to insure that certain a i groups received a a race meeting dates from the members of the Illinois racing boards who were appointed by Ker- ner.

The also charged the defendants con- cealed ownership of the stock through complicated financial transactions and they improperly filed tax returns in 1966 and 1967 when they revealed their profits.

His two adopted children, Tony and Helena, both in their early 20s, sat in the first row as they had throughout the trial.

Kerner spent 3Vfc days on the witness stand denying charges against him. The defense conceded that Ker- ner and Isaacs had obtained the stock and made a profit from it in a sixyear period. But Kerner contended the stock was not a bribe, that he never committed an act to influence racing dates in Illinois and that he properly paid taxes on his stock Kerner, a former U.S. at- torney and a major general in the National Guard, was appointed in 1968 by the late President Lyndon Johnson to the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Kerner, a Democrat, is married to the daughter of A a a a i a of i a killed in 1933 during an assassination at- tempt on President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt. The defense for Kerner was a a i on discrediting the governmen- t's two key witnesses, Mar- jorie Everett, former head of Chicago Thoroughbred Enterprise, and William S. Miller, racing chairman i a ministration.

Miller, 72, was indicted with Kerner and Isaacs, but the government agreed to dismiss charges against him in exchange for his testimony.

"Those who consume the products should bear the cost for the pollution they cause," he said. Kuhleman said Thomas' bill would allow the con- sumer to choose between the cheaper returnable with 'refund value, and the more expensive throw-away with no return value. William Wiecek, a lawyer and professor at the Univer- sity of Missouri-Columbia, said the bill could probably stand up to Constitutional tests.

He said a bill similar to the Thomas bill enacted by the Oregon lawmakers, had a i i Con- stitutionality court case. Wiecek said the opponents of the bill attack it on several grounds, including the "equal protection" and "due process" clauses of the 14th amendment. He, said the bill would probably not violate the bot- 1 1 because it does not prohibit bottling, it only regulates the containers. He also said the "equal protection" clause would not be violate the Con- stitution since all soft drink and beer bottlers would be covered by the bill.
