Page 2--Daily Messenger, Canandaigna, N.Y.--Friday, March 22, 1974 Handicapped Will Get Fuel Permits ALBANY, N.Y."(UPI) The state's Emergency Fuel Office says it has set up the procedures to enable the physically handicapped to exempt themselves from the mandatory odd- even gasoline sales system. The announcement was made in a news release Thursday. A spokesman for the office, however, said he did not know when the procedures would be implemented. The exemption for handicapped persons is the second to be granted. Monday, bona-fide salesmen were able to pick up stickers exempting them from the plan.

A spokesman for the Stale Department of Motor Vehicles said 4,000 permits were picked up the first day they were available. Applicants for the physically handicapped exemptions are to document their inability to use public transportation for required daily activities in a signed application. The application must also be signed by a physician. O'Hara said the forms will be available in doctors' offices. The applicant then must pre- Mariner To Zip Near Mercury PASADENA, Calif.

(UPI) -Mariner 10's final course change, made last Saturday, was so accurate the space explorer will come within at least 415 miles of the surface of Mercury, and perhaps less than 400 miles. A spokesman for Cal Tech's Jet Propulsion Laboratory said Thursday that it was originally planned to send Mariner 10 to within 540 miles of the planet's surface, but the course change had improved the trajectory more than had been hoped. The probe's cameras will be turned on Saturday, while it is still 3 million miles from Mercury, but pictures will probably be poor until March 27, he said. Mariner, launched last November, will make its closest approach March 29. It will give scientists their first good look at Mercury, closest planet to the sun, which is hard to see from the earth because it is usually hidden in the solar glare.

New Yorkers, meanwhile, could look forward to the first weekend of Sunday gasoline sales since President Nixon lifted his prohibition. A survey by the Automobile Club of New York Thursday showed that the outlook on gasoline availability in the New York City area was the brightest it has been last five months. According to an automobile club survey of 160 service stations, 96 per cent say they will be selling gas on Saturday. Of those, only 15 per cent will close by 3 p.m.

or earlier. Fifty per cent predict they will close between 3 and 6 p.m., leaving the remaining stations open beyond 6 p.m. This is a 10 per cent improvement over last Saturday, when only 86 per cent of the stations were selling gas. The Sunday situation has also improved, with 55 of the stations polled saying they would pump gas. A week ago, only 31 said they would open their stations on Sunday.

The majority of the stations polled said that they feel that gas supplies for the last week' of March will be the same or better than current supplies indicating that there will be no end of the month shortage. Motel Fire Fatal To Two DULUTH, Minn. (UPI) -Some jumped nude from windows. Others were snatched from smoke filled perches by firemen. The lucky ones were away.

"It was a tragedy, but it could have been worse," said policewoman Beverly Young early today. "Everyone pitched in to help." Witnesses said an explosion rocked the Crossroads Inn Motor Hotel late Thursday before a fire raced through the three-story brick building remodeled five years ago. Two persons were dead and two more remained in critical condition. At least 10 others, including two firemen, were injured. JL Jttc rfc A A 1 A Phone 394-4141 U.S.

Ends Security For Prince SAN DIEGO, Calif. (UPI) -Prince Charles, heir to the British throne, was back at sea on a Royal Navy frigate today, ending the worries of security men following the gunfin attack in London on his sister, Princess Anne. HMS Jupiter, carrying the young prince as communications officer, set sail Thursday amid tightenedsecruity precautions by the U.S. and British navies. There were conflicting reports on its destination.

The Jupiter's officers said they had received orders from London Wednesday, the day of the attack on the princess, to join war games in the Pacific by U.S., Canadian and British ships. A spokesman for the 3rd fleet headquarters in Honolulu said later, however, that the Jupiter would not take part "in any war games with the U.S. Navy." The Jupiter was scheduled to stop at Acapulco, Mexico on its way to the Panama Canal and back to England. The ship was docked here for a week while the crew engaged in training with the U.S. Navv.

After the attempted kidnap- ing of the Princess, the guard on the naval station gate was doubled, passes were given closer scrutiny, visitors were no longer allowed into the area where the Jupiter was docked. The Prince remained out of sight until the ship was pulling away from the dock, when he gave a brief goodbye wave to photographers. The Prince appeared to enjoy some of the many social opportunities that came his way before the kidnap attempt sealed him away on board ship. He spent the weekend golfing at the elegant Palm Springs estate of Walter Annenberg, U.S. ambassador to Great Britain, and toured Hollywood, meeting movie stars such as Barbara Streisand, with whom he shared a cup of tea.

Unhappy With Egypt By Japan Impressed Ambassador; upt ure Ends BY RAY MOSELEY MOSCOW (UPI) The Soviet Union is unhappy about Egypt's efforts to arrange a Middle East settlement with Israel through American Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger without Russian help, diplomatic sources said Thursday. The sources said the Russian displeasure over Egypt's independence in foreign affairs was conveyed to Egyptian President Anwar Sadat by Soviet Foreisn Minister Andrei A. Gromyko during his visit to Cairo earlier this month--a visit that followed hard on the heels of Kissinger's last trip there. They said it appeared Gromyko left Cairo dissatisfied with his talk with Sadat for shortly thereafter Gromyko in an address to a group of Egyptian workers in a Soviet-built steel plant told them that Egypt's friendship for the Soviet Union must be shown by deeds, not by words.

The Soviets, according to the diplomats, are displeased with the Egyptians on two counts- Egypt's rapprochement with the United States and Sadat's willingness to negotiate indirectly with Israel through Kissinger. "The Soviets want the action transferred to the Geneva conference where they feel they can have a more effective voice," the sources said. Moscow's irritation with Cairo has surfaced twice recently, the diplomats believe, in a broadcast by Moscow Radio to the Middle East and in a Pravda commentary. The radio broadcast chided "Arab leaders (who) are ready to surrender in the face of American pressure and lift the ban on oil" before the demand for Israeli withdrawal from all occupied lands is fulfilled. The Pravda commentary belittled Kissinger's diplomacy in the Middle East, saying, "it turns out that the mountain has given birth to a mouse." Diplomats said the Soviet leadership sent Gromyko to Cairo because of dissatisfaction with assurances of continued friendship received from Egyptian Foreign Minister Ismail Fahmi when he came here in late January.

The sources said they believed Gromyko had tried to dissuade Syrian leaders during his visit to Damascus early this month 'from participating in indirect'negotiations over troop withdrawals on the Israel front under Kissinger's auspices.

TOKYO (UPI) The American general who opened the for the U.S.

destruction of Tokyo during World War II said' today he was "amazed" at the Japanese success in recovering from the war. Lt. Gen. (Ret.) James H. Doolittle gave his impression of Tokyo during a luncheon meeting with his American friends and three former Japanese naval aviators who took part in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec.

7, 1941. Doolittle led a squadron of B25 bombers in the first American air raid on Tokyo on April 18, 1942, only four months after the start of the war. The attack on the Japanese capital by Doolittle and his men, who later became known as the "Doolittle Raiders," did not major damage to the Japanese capital but it paved the way for future raids. the U.S. air attacks were so destructive Tokyo virtually lay in ruins.

Doolittle, 77, is now vice chairman of a U.S. insurance company. He is in Japan for the first time in 15 years. Doolittle said he plans to visit Taiwan next week before going back to the United States for a reunion with the "Doolittle Raiders" in California next month.

By KMIL SVEILIS STOCKHOLM (UPI) The Swedish government confirmed its new ambassador to Washington today in a mood of satisfaction at the U.S. decision to forget its hard feelings caused by Vietnam and exchange envoys with Sweden again. The decision ended a near diplomatic rupture that began 15 months ago when Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme called President Nixon's orders to bomb Hanoi "an In the ensuing political feud the United States recalled its chief of mission from Stockholm and informed Sweden its new ambassador was not welcome.

At a meeting today, presided over by King Carl XVI Gustaf, the government confirmed the nomination of Count Wilhelm Wachtmeister, 50, as the new Swedish ambassador to the United States. Swedish Foreign Ministry sources said the new ambassadors named Thursday should be in their new posts by May, sooner. In Washington White House press secretary Gerald L. Warren said Nixon, had now decided it was in the: best interests of the Unitedi States to restore full diplomatic! relationswithSweden. In Stockholm, Palme responded, "It has always been our desire that normal diplomatic relations 'shall be maintained between Sweden and the United" States.

Therefore, we greet with satisfaction the U.S. decision to appoint a new ambassador to Sweden."

embassy in. Stockholm and the Swedish embassy in have been without high level representation since 1973, after Palme called the stepped up U.S. bombing of Hanoi in late 1972 as "a form of torture." Palme's statement upset Nixon and he withdrew from Stockholm his chief of mission, John C. Guthrie, and placed the embassy under the number three man, Arthur J. Olsen.

The U.S. State Department said shortly after that'Yngve Moeller, then Swedish Ambassador designate to the United States, was not welcome.

I expect to deal politely, stating views of my government, conveying their views to my government and do so conscientiously." New Ambassador Is Intellectual Type By United Press International To repair the damage that Vietnam did to Swedish-American relations, President Nixon has chosen an aging intellectual with a reputation as an academician. But Robert Strausz-Hupe, the. newU.S. ambassador-designate to Stockholm, shrugs off suggestions that there is an unbridgeable ideological gap between him and Olaf Palme, the neutralist prime minister of Sweden. "I've dealt for 35 years with academic colleagues whose views were very far apart from my own," he said today.

McElwee Son 200 Buffalo St. place to distinction in investment banking (between 1927 to 1937), in academic life (19371970) and in diplomacy, as ambassador to Ceylon and Belgium, since then. His reputation as a hard-liner, in foreign affairs was built in a' series of books written since World War II. In "A Forward Strategy for America," published in 1961, Strausz-Hupe stated' an uncompromising creed toward Communism. "Our policy must be based upon the premise that we cannot tolerate the survival of a political system which has both the growing capability and the ruthless will to destroy us." Calling for hard choices, he- said American policy must seek "the preservation and enhancement of our political system, rather than the maintenance of; i "Our lot is conflict.

History brings us not peace but a sword. Will our hands grasp it?" He has mellowed little since then. As recently as last year, he was defending in private conversations with Europeans not only U.S. policy in Vietnam but earlier escalation of the fighting--a position stronger than the one which the Nixon administration held at the time. But there is more to Strausz- Hupe than a lifelong anti- Communism.

Although he admits that "I'm not an expert on Scandinavia," he has written approvingly of Swedish neutrality and especially of Sweden's aid to the Third World. He is a small, dapper man, barely 5-foot-S, trim, with a deeply lined, kindly face. He dresses impeccably. No wrinkle or smudge blemish his three- piece pin-striped suits and glistening black shoes and not one white hair is out of place. Strausz-Hupe said he did not know when he would go to Stockholm.

He said this depended on speed of his confirmation by Congress, and predicted that he would have to go before congressional hearings before he is confirmed. 'Embargo Unlikely To Return' WASHINGTON (UPI) --'Because a unanimous vote is needed, Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger says he doesn't believe the Mideast oil embargo will be reimposed when the Arab states meet later this spring to reassess the situation. seems to be that what the Arabs will do on June 1 is to review the decision and that it would require a new decision to reimpose the presumably that decision would have to be unanmimous," Kissinger told a news conference Thursday. "So, we do not believe that it is probable that the embargo will be re imposed." The Arabs clamped the embargo because of the U.S.

policy toward Israel, and could be expected to restore it should they disprove of U.S. attempts to settle the dispute along the. Israeli-Syrian border. Kissinger also said that said recent statements by President Nixon and himself critical of European cooperation with the United States was not an attempt to blackmail the Western allies. He said the United Slates is not seeking domination of its European friends, but is concerned about growing isolationism in America.

"In all statements we have made to Europe we attempted to explain that the danger that concerned us was American isolationism, not a quest for domination," Kissinger said. John C. Johnson Funeral Home Inc. 47 No. Main, Cdga.
