WHEELER XUAN QUE, Vietnam (AP) -Neither the 1st Air Cavalry soldiers nor the band of refugees were in a good mood when the old woman began to stumble and stagger on the hike down the trail toward the district headquarters. It quickly became obvious that she wouldn't make it under her own power. The company commander called a halt to rc' group the refugees and to let the 80 oldsters and children rest. An American medic looked at the woman and said she would have to be carried. The Vietnamese interpreter was instructed: Tell the refugees the Americans will rig a litter and then the strongest refugees will have to carry the woman the final three miles.

By STERLING F. GREEN WASHINGTON (AP) Virtually all the 86 major industries surveyed annually by the Commerce Department foresee business gains in 1968 reversing, in many cases, declines suffered in 1967. The department's report, "U.S. Industrial Outlook 1968," issued Sunday discloses in 257 pages of industryby-industry analysis that nearly two-thirds expect increases of 5 per cent or more. Seven industries look for gains of more than 10 per cent.

Automobiles expect 13 per cent, civilian aircraft 45 per cent, motels 15 per cent, photographic equipment 10 per cent, construction machinery 13.7 per cent, and copper (brass mill) products, 15 per cent. Only one industry, railroad-'car building, anticipates a decline. But the transportation equipment industry as a whole will gain 13 per cent, the study indicates, because auto and truck output are rebounding from the long Ford strike of 1967. An 8.4-million-car year is expected, compared with 1967's output of 7.4 million. Glamor performances are expected of some smaller segments of major industries.

The photocopying equipment boom is a bit less buoyant, for exam ple, but still should produce a 20 per cent climb in sales. Use of aluminum cans should double in 1968; their output has soared 400 per cent in five years while steel-can production has risen Jess than 10 per cent. NEW CONSTRUCTION Construction is staging a comeback, built on an unexpectedly rapid reversal of the depression in housing. New construction will rise 8 per cent to a record $83.5 billion, the survey reports. However, cost increases will account for 3 percentage points; the physical increase will be about 5 per cent.

That volume, coupled with rising repair and maintenance building, will make construction a $100-billion sector of the economy. Builders thus will contribute more than one-fifth of the entire national output, estimated officially at a record $485 billion in 1968. All the estimates assume that Congress will enact the 10 per cent tax surcharge proposed by President Johnson. Failure to do so, the department could cause a serious tightening of mortgage credit and a slow- Police Report Reveals Dies at 75 RINGGOLD E. B.

Motorist Hits Insurance Office GULFPORT, Miss. (AP) A motorist on his way to renew his auto insurance policy recently rammed across the point.

"They say no," the interpreter said. "They no carry old woman." The sergeant shrugged and said: "Well, we aren't going to do it either. She either makes it or we leave her." Despite the interpreter, nei ther the GIs nor the refugees really understood each other Both were acting out of convic tions drawn from their cultural backgrounds. To both the issue was clearcut. To the Americans the woman's friends and fellow villagers had a moral obligation to help their own.

To the Vietnamese, aiding the woman meant accepting responsibility for her welfare for the rest of her life. And so she was left, panting and whimpering along the trail.

"The result could be a possible loss in expenditures of as much as $3 billion from the level in this outlook," the construction report says. Population shifts also are reshaping some business trends, the department reports.

The declining birthrate is reducing the demand for baby food and other infants' products. "In contrast, the numbers of school-age children and young adults are growing rapidly, with a consequent expansion in the markets for books, candy, soft drinks, toys, games, shoes, and high fashion apparel," the report goes on.

But political opposition was brewing in West Germany against the U.S. request for Bonn to pay the full local costs of stationing Ameri can troops here. Karl Heinrich Knappstein, West German ambassador to Washington, flew home on what the Foreign Office described as a routine consultation visit though it appeared obvious the new U.S. economic measure would dominate his talks Knappstein is expected to re turn to Washington next week, end. Kiesinger said in a Saturday night speech at Bochum that West Germany would be able to cope with the loss of tourist dol lars and investments brought by the dollar-saving program, and would back Washington meas ures "to the extent that our fi nancial resources permit." LESS POSITIVE The chancellor was loss posi- costs of American troops in Ger many.

U.S. Undersecretary of s'ale Nicholas Katzenbach is understood to have made the re quest during his visit to Bonn last week. Kiesinger said U.S. proposals on troop costs would be studied "with all care" and with consideration to West Germany's own economy. A harder line was developing in the West German Bundestag, where members of all three parties cautioned against undertak ing obligations that would hurt the German economy.

Hans Dietrich Genscher, parliamentary leader of the opposition Free Democratic party, said in a statement that satisfying the U.S. demands would be impossible without causing severe damage to the finances and economy of this country. He demanded that Kicsinger's coalition government "start by pouring some clear wine and stop clouding the issues." Two influential members of the Bundestag's finance committee said in interviews published in the nationally circulate cd Sunday Newspaper Welt' Am Sonntag that a new offset agreement with the United States would pose serious economic difficulties for West Germany. Dr. Wolfgang Pohle, a member of the Bavarian wing of Kie-singer's Christian Democratic party, went so far as to say that a new agreement was impossible.
