EPA studies relaxation of clean-air standards WASHINGTON (AP) A government report says the ad- ministration's suggested retreat from clean-air stan- dards in some areas to help ease the energy crisis would set up an unplanned experiment in pollution effects on human health. The report by the Depart- ment of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) urged close scientific observation of the medical impact of increasing pollution if national sulfur oxide health standards are relaxed and communities are permitted to burn high-sulfur fuels. No communities have yet been granted such permission, but the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has an- nounced its willingness to grant "variances," at state request, from the national standards. The report itself did not spec- ify the proposed variances as the opportunity for the health effects study.

But its author, Dr. David P. Rail, director of the National Institute of Envi- ronmental Health Sciences, confirmed in an interview that it meant exactly that. "In view of the current short- age of low sulfur fuels a signifi- cant deterioration in regional air qualify is expected to devel- op this winter and to be repeat- ed for a number of years sub- sequently," the report said. It said "advantage should be taken of this situation by in- itiating a prospective study de- signed to document the health effects of these changes." It said the health of children, Mrs.

Raff en sparger, N. Y. Mills, dies Mrs. Alta Raffensparger, 74, a resident of the New York Mills community since 1935, died yesterday at St. Luke's Hospital, Fargo.

She was 74. Services will be held at the first United Church of Christ, New York Mills, Friday at 11 a.m. with the Rev. Herbert Zimmerman officiating. Burial will be at Swanville.

Mrs. Raffensparger was born at Swanville Feb. 28, 1899, and was married to Vern Raf- fensparger at Little Falls Se.pt. 16, 1916. She was a chatter member of Royal Neighbors and a member of the Woman's Fellowship of her church.

Surviving are a daughter, Mrs. Vera Herr, New York Mills, one grandson, a sister, Mrs. Loretta Rohling, Min- neapolis, and three brothers, Charles Buelow, Seattle; Merle Buelow, George, and Clinton Buelow, Mound. Her husband died last Aug. 25.

Arrangements by the Kampsula Funeral Home, New York Mills. normaladults and "special risk groups" should be studied and compared in areas where pollu- tion increases and where it de- creases. The studies would cost about $1 million a year for the first five years and smaller amounts for another ten years, the re- port estimated. The report also warned that airborne sulfuric acid mist and sulfates for which there are no federal standards may be even more hazardous to health than sulfur oxide. They develop from sulfur dioxide in the air through chemical reactions.

"Further information on this is urgent," the report said. It called for "better to suggest an appropriate stan- dard for sulfates." Prepared by HEW for the Of- fice of Management and Budg- et, the report proposed a total of 13 research projects on sulfur- related air pollution and health problems, to cost some $7 million to million a year. In releasing the report, OMB Director Roy L. Ash promised a portion of the administration's requested $115 million increase for energy research "will be earmarked for further examination of the health ef- fects of sulfates." Murder-suicide deaths reported GRAND MARAIS, Minn. (AP) The deaths of a Min- nesota Highway Patrol trooper and a Chicago man have been classified as a murder-suicide by Cook County authorities.

Coroner Dr. Roger Mac- Donald said Tuesday his in- vestigation had determined that George A. Aho, 48, Chicago, shot and killed Donald Ziesmer, 46, a trooper from Grand Marais, and then shot himself fatally following a confrontation on U.S. 61 at Tofte, Monday. Norris Hystad, Cook County attorney, said he would abide by MacDonald's recommenda- tion that no criminal charge be filed in connection with the deaths.

Aho's wife, who had been held in the Cook County Jail at Grand Marais since the shoot- ings about 2:30 p.m. Monday, was released late Tuesday afternoon, Hystad said. Dr. MacDonald said his find- ing was based on laboratory re- ports, a statement from Mrs. Aho and testimony by other witnesses.

"Testimony clearly pointed to the fact that Aho, for reasons unknown, shot Ziesmer and then committed suicide, appar- ently as he realized what he'd done," said MacDonald. The Ahos were on their way turned to his car, apparently to phone his patrol headquarters inDuluth. Witnesses testified, MaeDo- nald said, that Aho "grabbed a .22 caliber rifle, jumped from his van and started shooting" at Ziesmer as the trooper sat in his car. "Testimony was that, once he had shot Ziesmer, he then im- mediately took his own life," MacDonald said. 5th robbery is reported ST.

CLOUD, Minn. (AP) The fifth robbery in the past two weeks in St. Cloud occurred Tuesday night and police believe the robberies may be the work of one person. Police said a man brandish- ing a pistol escaped with $200 from the Sanitary market in St. Cloud Tuesday night.

Authorities said it was the second stickup of the market in the latest series of robberies. The first robbery loss was $300. Police said the description of the robber in all the cases is basically the same.

(AP Wlrephoto by radio from Beirut) President meets with Arab foreign ministers WASHINGTON (AP) President Nixon today met with four Arab foreign ministers and said that while they had "dif- ferences" with the United States he believes "a fair and just and peaceful settlement" can be reached in the Arab-Is- raeli war.

Standing in bf ight sunshine in the White House rose garden, Nixon said "the foreign minis- ters and I have had a very good talk." In a similar calm mood, Umar al-Saqqaf of Saudi Arabia speaking for the Arabs, said he and the other ministers "have been received well." Meeting with Nixon at their request, "to discuss the current situation in the Middle East," were the foreign ministers of Algeria, Kuwait, Morocco and Saudi Arabia. Before going into the Oval Of- LvisRmg'raa- ttves, to their lake cabin near Ely, MacDonald said, when Ziesmer stopped their van in Tofte. According to testimony from witnesses, MacDonald said, other motorists had reported seeing the Ahos' van weaving for a distance of six to eight miles north of Tofte. Ziesmer hailed the van, with Mrs. Aho in the drivers' seat, when it reached the Lake Supe- rior hamlet.

He talked with the Ahos for some time and re- ished 1873 Charles Underwood, Publisher George Marotteck, Business Gray, News Ed. Glenn E. Olson, Advertising Mgr. Published by Fergus Journal Co. at 111 E.

Kissinger, who also partici- pated in the session with Nixon. The White House conference came amid reports of stepped- up fighting in the Middle East, increasing U.S. efforts to resupply Israel, fears of Arab oil cutoffs and a 17 per cent in- crease in the price of crude oil by six Persian countries. Saudi Arabia's foreign minis- ter, Umar al-Saqqaf, had the seat of honor beside the Presi- dent while the others arranged themselves on two sofas. Making small talk while news photographers recorded the start of the meeting, Nixon re- called he had planned to visit Saudi Arab! as a private citizen in 1967 but had to cancel those plans because of the six-day Arab-Israeli war that year.

"I'll come back again," Nix- on the 'Before the meeting began six oil states on the Persian Gulf raised the price of their crude oil 17 per cent. The increase was agreed to by Iran, the only non-Arab state on the Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar. The six said the increase brought their prices in line with that charged for North African and Venezue- lan oil and was an economic matter not related to the Mideast war. However, the six countries later held a closed door meeting with Libya, Algeria, Egypt, Syria and Bahrein to consider "the role of oil in the Middle East conflict." Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Ku- wait, Abu Dhabi and Qatar pro- duced about 40 per cent of the oil produced in the non- Communist world. Most of it goes to Western Europe and "Your Car's Best Friend" Minnesota Motor Co.

Government sources in Washington said that a 17 per cent increase in crude oil prices from the Arab producers would have a small impact on U.S. gasoline prices. One source es- timated it at less than one-tenth of a cent.

The United States now proc- esses about 13 million barrels of crude oil a day. Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield is urging Nixon to convene a six-nation summit conference to seek an imme- diate cease-fire. Mansfield suggested Tuesday that Nixon issue an urgent in- vitation to the leaders of the Soviet Union, France, England, West Germany and Japan to try to bring Israel and the Arab nations together to end the fighting. "The time, Mr. President, is MansfieW saidr Mi- llie foreign ministers Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Kuwait and Morocco sent word from New York, where they were at- tending United Nations ses- sions, that they wanted to talk with Nixon.

There were reports they had a personal message to deliver from King Faisal of Saudi Arabia, who has been under pressure from other Arab lead- ers to withhold oil supplies from the United States as a lever in the war. White House Deputy Press Secretary Gerald L. Warren said the foreign ministers "asked to see the President to discuss the current situation in the Middle East." A spokesman for one Arab delegation said the subject was not oil but "U.S. involvement in the war." Ferfis Falls (Mi.) 'Joirul Oct. 17,1973 2 Leo College assets are under review MANKATO, Minn.

(AP) There is apparently a very slight chance for distribution of assets to tea College's hun- dreds of creditors according to court-appointed trustee James Pfau. He made the observation after Tuesday's conclusion of a U.S. District Court hearing on the defunct college's assets and debts. Dale Matson, treasurer of the corporation, said there are few unencumbered assets. The cor- poration has no funds and all land and property has been se- cured by one of the school's largest contributors, the Anderson Foundation, and a number of financial institutions on the land and buildings.

One former student, Law- rence Myer, said he had been told that student room deposits would be returned if the college failed to reopen, but that the deposits were not kept in a sep- arate account as had been promised. Dr. Fred Glassburner, for- mer president of the Albert Lea college, said when he took the post he learned that the room deposits had been placed in the general fund with all the other money. The college owes about $1 million to secured and unse- cured creditors.
