By FAROUK NASSAR BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) After one of their leaders promised a "merciless underground war" against Israel, some of the PLO's most radical guerrillas sailed from the port of Beirut Monday bound for South Yemen. Both sides of the divided capital erupted into volleys of victorious gunfire. Moslem west Beirut saluted the third group of departing guerrillas, and residents of the Christian eastern sector celebrated the election of Bashir Gemayel as president of Lebanon. Gemayel is the rightist leader of Lebanon's biggest Christian militia. Israeli spokesmen in east Beirut and Israel's state-run radio said 620 PLO guerrillas were on the Cypriot passenger ship Alkyon.

But the PLO and Lebanon's state radio said 1,000 were aboard. The guerrillas most from George Habash's Popular Front for 'the Liberation of Palestine and Nayef Hawatmeh's pro-Moscow Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, two of the most radical factions of the PLO, assembled earlier Monday in the west Beirut sports stadium. Both Habash and Hawat-meh attended. The departing fighters hugged and kissed their leaders and chanted "With blood we defend you, Palestine." They brandished unloaded submachine guns with photographs of PLO chief Yasser Arafat on the barrels. In an interview on the PLO's Voice of Palestine radio, Salah Kha-laf, the PLO security chief code-named Abu Iyad, vowed a "merciless underground war" against Israel.

Khalaf, reputed mastermind of the massacre of 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, declared: "Our underground fighters will penetrate Israel from all directions. The world will witness in the coming days that kind of action that will make Menachem Begin's hair stand straight up." Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, who calls' the scheduled 14-day operation an "expulsion," has contended that Israel is entering a long period of peace. The guerrillas will land in Aden, capital of Marxist-ruled South Yemen at the southern tip of the Arabian peninsula. On Saturday and Sunday, nearly 1,500 guerrillas left west Beirut, where an estimated 7,000 PLO fighters had been trapped by Israeli troops who invaded Lebanon June 6. Another 1,000 guerrillas are scheduled for sea evacuation to North Yemen today.

Israeli officials and reporters watched the loading of the ship from an apartment building in east Beirut, as did Republican Rep. Ramond McGrath and Democratic Reps. James H.Shuerand Mario Biaggi.all of New York. The departure of the guerrillas so far has been supervised by about 300 French troops, who will be joined this week by 500 more- French soldiers, 800 U.S. Marines and 500 Italian soldiers.

Lebanon elects leader BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) -To the joy of Christians and the despair of Moslems, 34-year-old Christian militia commander Bashir Gemayel became president-elect Monday of war-torn Lebanon. "I hope that we can say today the war has come to an end and a new era of peace, security and tranquility has begun," Gemayel declared over his Phalange Party's Voice of Lebanon radio. Gemayel pledged to rid his divided country of all foreign armies and to represent equally all Lebanese regardless of religion. The president-elect has said he will be the West's best friend in the Arab world.

He is expected to adopt strongly pro-American policies and seek close relations with Israel. As soon as news of Gemayel 's parliamentary election was broadcast, Christian-controlled east Beirut erupted in celebration, with people firing submachine guns in the air, motorists honking their car horns and ambulances and fire engines sounding their sirens. At least 40 people were wounded by flying bullets in the first hours of the celebration, police said. Legislators from various Moslem factions had boycotted the election, and Gemayel was the only candidate. Moslems, who fought a bloody civil war in 1975-76 against the Christians, fear that a Gemayel government will bring oppression.

Now the guerrillas are leaving and, despite Gemayel's assurances that he wants consensus from all major communities, the Moslems are deeply concerned. The Voice of Arab Lebanon, radio station of west Beirut's largest Moslem militia, called the election "a day of shame." "A military governor has just been appointed for Lebanon on Israel's orders." the radio station said. Israel's Prime Minister Menachem Begin sent congratulations to Gemayel, saying, "May God be with you, dear friend, in the fulfillment of your great, historical mission for the liberty of Lebanon and its independence. Your friend, Menachem Begin." Israel has backed Gemayel's Christian militia with $100 million worth of weapons since the Turn to PRESIDENT, Page IA. index Almanac.

"I KNOW THAT none of the provisions in this bill was drafted in (the House Ways and Means) Committee or in the House as a whole," said Rep. Henson Moore, who led a suit by 18 members of Congress filed last Wednesday. To Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, that makes for a patently obvious constitutional violation. "Congress breaks' the Constitution right and left around here," said Paul in a telephone interview Monday.

"This happens to be more clear-cut than most." Paul filed a separate suit Friday. That "clear-cut" provision of the Constitution was included by the Founding Fathers to keep the taxing powers in the hands of the governing body closest to the people. "They were afraid of what happened in the (unelected) House of Lords, which had a nasty habit of tacking revenue measures on top of non-revenue bills from the House of Commons," said one lawyer familiar with the issue. The provision made sense originally, because the Senate was elected by state legislatures. Senators began being elected by popular vote in 1913, through a constitutional amendment.

ONLY A HANDFUL of cases have that's what the National Weather Service predicted for the next few days could prompt state forestry officials to label the fire danger extreme in other areas, Fisher said. Fire danger was considered moderate in the department's Santiam State. Forest in the Cascade Range, he Fire danger has not reached the extreme level on any Oregon lands under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Forest Service, said Ken Peterson, assistant regional dispatcher with the federal agency's Northwest region. "Right now we're getting into the first real extreme fire danger we've had," Bill Smith, a forester with the state Forestry Department in Sisters, said Monday.

wear their Gannett News Service WASHINGTON What President Reagan hath accomplished in getting a tax bill passed, a federal judge could still put asunder. Conservative members of Congress have filed two lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the tax bill passed by Congress last week, and the legislators behind the suits say they will pursue the issue all the way to the Supreme Court, if necessary. THEY DON'T AIM to keep the law from taking effect when President Reagan signs it this week, but a ruling favorable, later could render the law null and void. The congressmen are basing the challenges on an arcane clause of the Constitution that grew out of the Founding Fathers fear of the British House of Lords. That is not exactly a major fear now, but the words remain in Article One: "All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives." The Reagan tax measure approved last week originated in the Republican-led Senate, though sponsors there took the precaution of grafting it onto a House-passed bill that was actually a tax-cut measure.

None of the provisions of the House tested the provision over the centuries, and deputy Senate legal counsel Elizabeth Culbreth lamented that "I doubt there is anyone alive who has litigated it before." But the spirit behind the provision remains valid today, according to Paul, even though both houses of Congress now are elected by the people. "This tax bill could not have been written in the House, because it would not have passed the House," said Paul. "House members are closer to the people." The House did eventually pass it, but only after intensive presidential lobbying. Both Senate and House leaders are named in the suits, and the Justice Department may become involved once the law becomes official. Lawyers for those bodies, which have 60 days to respond to the actions, have declined comment so far.

But they are expected to assert in court that judges should not decide "internal matters" of procedure between houses of Congress. Additionally, they may argue that the Senate met the constitutional standard by using the House bill as a shell and that the House, by ultimately approving the measure, may have forfeited its right to object. Police call stocks soar, pace nears all-time high NEW YORK (AP) The stock market steamrolled over some mid-session hesitation and rallied sharply again Monday as the Dow Jones industrial average rose to an eight-month high and trading volume on the New York Stock Exchange soared above 100 million shares for the second time in history. More banks lower prime rate to 133 percent; 4C. Retail, aerospace, technology and oil issues were among the big gainers as 237 NYSE-listed stocks rose to new 52-week highs.

The Dow Jones average of 30 industrials, which rose 30.72 points Friday to push its gain for the week to a record 81.24 points, shot up another 21.88 to 891.17, its highest level since DecTIO, 1981, when it closed at 892.03. NYSE gainers led losers 4 to 1, and the NYSE composite index climbed 1.71 to 66.36. NYSE volume swelled to 110.31 million shares, second only to the record 132.69 million shares traded last Wednesday. The third-highest NYSE volume, 95.89 million, was set last Friday. Nationwide turnover in NYSE-listed issues Monday, including trades in those stocks on regional exchanges and in the over-the-counter market, totaled 129.31 million shares.

Prices opened mixed, moved higher in pre-noon activity as trading accelerated and then paused. But in afternoon trading, particularly in the session's final hour, prices again turned up again and "the market ran over all the profit-takers and everybody else," said Eldon Grimm, senior vice president of Birr, Wilson Co. Much of the market's recent surge has been attributed to sharp declines in interest rates, and expectations those declines will continue. Analysts also said the sustained high volume reflected rising participation by investors previously wary that the rally would continue. "There still is an enormous amount of cash on the sidelines waiting for something to happen," Grimm said, and many Investors "don't want to be left at the dock when the boat leaves." Hot weather increases fire danger to extreme prime Eyerly suspect Hot, dry weather has boosted forest-fire danger to the highest levels of the summer in Central and Southern Oregon, state Department of Forestry officials said Monday.

Department spokesman Jim Fisher said fire danger is considered extreme on the eastern slope of Mount Hood, in parts of Central Oregon and in Jackson and Josephine counties. Smoking in forests is allowed only in enclosed vehicles in those areas and in Douglas, Coos, eastern Lane and northern Klamath counties, he said. Restrictions on afternoon use of power equipment In forests also apply in some areas, he said. Continued dry weather and By ANDY McIVOR Of ike SMMamaa-jMraal Darrell Jay Wilson, the man who authorities say hanged himself after being questioned about Sherry Eyer-ly's diappearance, was the prime suspect in the case, Marion County District Attorney Chris Van Dyke said Monday. Van Dyke said police detectives had talked to the 30-year-old Wilson at least three times before his death Saturday.

The district attorney said he did not know what first led them to Wilson, and Sgt. Will Hingston, in charge of the investigation for the Marion County Sheriff's Department, would not say. A woman who described herself as a friend of Wilson's called the Statesman-Journal Monday and said police had been questioning him for the i.
