Post Office, Arizona A I I I FRIDAY, JULY 7, 1972 Pollution tax plan in trouble No House GOP backing the Sierra Club, Friends of the Earth, Environmental Action, the Wilderness Society and the Federation of American Scientists. Some 50 state and local emlronniental groups around the country are associated with the In a recent statement, the coalMon declared that the President seemed to be using the sulfur tax "to spice up his environmental rhetoric, yet action to see that a sulfur fax bill is indeed introduced has been negligible." The President's bill ties the tax into provisions of the Clean Air Act setting up air quality standards. There would be no tax until 1976 and then it would apply only in areas where there is a sulfur oxide pollution problem. The charge would be 15 cents a pound on sulfur going into the air in parts of the country where levels are so high as to endanger health, and 10 cents a pound in areas where levels are not so high as to be considered a health menace but are high enough to damage property and vege- tation.

The tax would not apply in regions where the air is cleaner than what is required by the federal standards. A dirty industry in a clean air region, such as Arizona's copper smelters, would escape the tax entirely while an industry that had done everything it could to reduce pollution in a dirty area would have to pay. Nixon said that the charges, combined 1 with existing regulatory authority, "would constitute a strong economic incentive to achieve the sulfur oxides standards necessary to protect health, and then further to reduce emissions to levels which protect welfare and aesthetics." The coalition disagrees, contending that the tax is too low that it would be cheaper to pay the tax than to abate pollution and that the exemption would encourage industries to locate in clean ah' regions where they would dirty the air.

Rogers seeks ties to Hungary BUDAPEST (AP) U.S. Secretary of State William Rogers says his visit to Communist-ruled Hungary '-represents a desire on our part for a broader relationship with a country and a people with whom we share many ties." Rogers came to Budapest yesterday from Bucharest during an eight-nation tour. He made the remarks about American-Hungarian relations during a dinner in his honor last night.

Hungary is a close ally of the Soviet Union, but it also is regarded to have a more liberal domestic policy than most other East Bloc countries. the Boeing 727 OK the runway at Oakland Airport. It was the second hijacking of a PSA plane in two days. The FBI killed two gunmen in Wednesday's hijacking at San Francisco International Airport. Turner, of Sacramento, had been a passenger in plainclothes aboard the plane when it was seized over northern California.

After a stop at San Diego where PSA turned over the ransom, the hijacker released all but two of the 57 passengers and forced the plane's crew to fly to Oakland. "I talked to him about family and said it was going to hurt his mother and it would not be over today or tomorrow but would be a long term thing," said Turner. One of the guns Goodell turned over was Turner's service revolver which the patrolman had taken from its holster and placed in a coat pocket. Turner said he had not been frisked when he got on the aircraft at Sacramento. "I could have shot him several times but there were women and children on the plane and it could have ruptured the skin of the aircraft," Turner said.

Turner said Goodell told him he was a Vietnam war veteran and complained the Army wouldn't let Mm marry a girl in Southeast Asia. Once on the ground in Oakland, the hijacker, who had signed the passenger list with the alias of Goodwin M. Harrison, apparently lost his nerve. Turner talked him into surrendering, and he walked down the rear stairs of the plane with his hands raised over his head. FBI agents seized him as soon as he stepped to the ground.

He was wearing a khaki jacket, white shirt and dark pants. "The guy was afraid," and airport spokesman said. "He seemed to realize he had made a mistake." Robert Gebhardt, special agent in charge of the San Francisco FBI office, said Goodell had been absent for two days from Ft. Riley, Kan. The hijacker had a German- mads automatic pistol when he took over control of the plane.

Bond for the hiajcker was set at $100,000, and the U.S. Attorney authorized the filing of a chairge of air piracy. Turner talked to the bespectacled Goodell for two and a half hours before the young man decided to give himself up. Paratroops South Viets enter Tri center uan SAIGON (UPI) A 500- man South Vietnamese paratroop battalion pushed all the way into the center of Quang Tri City to the edge of the walled citadel today the first sizeable government force to enter the city since the Communists overran it May 1. UPI camerman Tran Dai Minh reported the troops of the 7th airborne battalion brought tanks in with them and encountered little resistance in their house-to-house, urban guerrilla-style advance.

The paratroopers seized two strategic areas near the city yesterday, then waited for 13,000 troop support reinforcements. A military spokesman in Saigon said another airborne battalion, the llth, was advancing into the city from the southern suburbs and the 8th South Vietnamese marine battalion was pushing in a mile east of the citadel, where North Vietnamese snipers in sizeable numbers are believed dug in. A 30-man South Vietnamese reconnaissance company moved into the center of Quang Tri City by helicopter Unemployment drops Food prices push wholesale index up WASHINGTON (AP) A renewed surge in livestock and meat prices led an overall rise of five-tenths of one per cent in wholesale prices of food and industrial products in June, the government said today. The unemployment rate dropped during the month. It was the second straight substantial monthly price increase, following a three-fifths of one per cent hike in May for the largest two-month increase since last January and February.

The Labor Department also reported that the nation's unemployment rate dropped from 5.9 to 5.5 per cent of the work force last month for the lowest figure in more than a year and a half. The improvement was entirely due to seasonal factors. But the actual total of jobless Americans climbed 1.1 million to 5.4 million in the annual summer flood of school youngsters seeking work. Because the rise in the work force was not as large as expected, the department's Bureau of Labor Statistics figured it as a decline in the jobless rate on a seasonal basis. Livestock prices climbed 4.7 per cent, poultry rose 6.9 per cent and processed meats, poultry and fish rose 3.6 per cent, the report on wholesale prices said.

Industrial raw materials rose three-tenths of one per cent and consumer-finished goods those ready for retail markets increased five- tenths of one per cent. The increases pushed the government's Wholesale Price Index up to 118.8 of its 1967 base, meaning that it cost wholesalers S118.80 in June for every S100 worth of goods five years ago. The index was 3.9 per cent above a year ago. The report listed increases for gasoline, electric power and some other fuels; wood products: motor vehicle parts; machinery; textiles, clothing and shoes; paper products; rubber and plastics; drags and paint. There were price declines for natural gas; major household appliances; television sets; chemicals and glass.

The price of fruits and vegetables increased nine-tenths of one per cent; eggs were up 1.4 per cent and sugar rose four- tenths. There were declines of seven-tenths of one per cent for milk; 1.8 per cent for over-all dairy products and seven- tenths of one per cent for vegetable oils. The report on unemployment said the jobless rate for men declined from 4.3 to 4 per cent with a total of 1.9 million. The rate for women dropped from 5.9 to 5.5 per cent with a total of 1.8 million and the rate for teen-agers declined from 15.7 to 14.5 per cent with a total of 1.9 million. It said the total number of employed Americans declined about 170,000 to 88.7 million, but seasonal factors changed this to a rise of more than 2 million because the total usually drops much more in June.

The report also said that wages of some 50 million rank-and-file workers increased one-cent per hour to and average weekly earnings increased $2.18 to $135.39. This was up or 6.1 per cent in the past year, After deduction for the 3.2 per cent rise in consumer prices over the year, the average worker was still about per week ahead. i SOMEPLACE ELSE' 1239 NORTH 6th AVENUE Large Group Added To Free Bus Rides Downtown Today Tomorrow!
