MADISON (AP) Predicting it could "make Nevada look like a piker," state Sen. Ronald G. Parys, D-Milwaukee, has asked I support of a referendum from the Senate Tudiciary Committee for legalizing Wisconsin gambling. Parys said gambling would be a shot in the arm for Wisconsin's resort industry. He appeared at a committee hearing Wednesday.

Rep. Ellsworth Gaulke, D-Lac du Flambeau, seconded Parys' contention, calling legalized gambling "essential to help alleviate our tax burden." Resorts and restaurants in the state benefitted from gambling before it was prohibited during World War II, Gaulke said. With legalized gambling, Parys said, "tourists could come to Wisconsin not only to enjoy hunting, fishing and snowmobiling, but to leave some of their money here in terms of tax dollars." Sen. Allen A. Busby, D-Milwaukee, committee chairman, said he has seen proposals for legalizing some forms of gambling introduced from session to session.

But none has been as sweeping as Parys' plan, he said. Parys told the committee that even if the constitutional prohibition on gambling were erased by a referendum, the Legislature could still determine which types of gambling to allow. Gambling would be permissible only on local option, he said. There was no opposition to the proposal. Street fight impedes traffic; police called vote on SST funds called crucial WASHINGTON (AP) The bill continuing federal support for a supersonic-transport plane reached the House today for a crucial vote so close SST backers said they could lose.

"It's going to be tough," said Speaker Carl Albert of Oklahoma, conceding some of the 20 votes by which the House approved continued SST funding last December wave been lost. The vote then was 205 to 185. Today's vote was on a motion by Rep. Sidney R. Yates, to cut $134 million and halt federal SST money March 30 when present spending authority expires.

The Senate may act on the spending cut next week. SST backers stressed during debate Wednesday that the two prototypes being developed will prove whether the plane can be a commercial success or a threat to the environment. Ending the federal subsidy now, they said, would cost 13,000 jobs and a loss of the $1-billion government investment, including termination costs.

Gerald Lorge, R-Bear Creek, said Wednesday he will press for early enactment of a bill to place strict limits on rock music festivals. Plans for another festival in Northern Wisconsin make it necessary for quick action, he said. "I may push for consideration of this bill in the Senate row," Lorge said upon learning that a Madison promoter was seeking a possible site for a June 25-27 rockfest. James R. Sitton, who promoted a rock festival at Iola last FDA misstated results of study on food additive WASHINGTON (AP) The Food and Drug Administration admits it misstated in formal testimony the results of a 1969 study on the misuse of a controversial meat and fish additive.

FDA officials also said Wednesday the government makes no attempt to seize smoked fish until the product contains 30 per cent more of the additive, nitrite, than is permitted by safety regulations. Commissioner Charles C. Edwards, appearing before the House operations subcommittee on intergovernmental relations, said a 1969 study of six plants making smoked salmon found only one sample with nitrite in excess of the government's 200 parts per million limit. Subcommittee staff members said, however, papers from FDA files showed the 1969 study found three of the six plants producing fish in violation of the nitrite standard. The FDA's chief counsel, William E.

Goodwrich, said the figures were correct but were deleted from the formal testimony "to shorten it. Large doses of nitrite can be delegated from the formal testifatal, especially to children, the infirm and persons, FDA officials testified. Some scientists contend lesser but still sizable doses of nitrite over long periods may cause cancer. Nitrite is a preservative that imparts the characteristic red color to such products as corned beef, luncheon meats, sausage, and smoked fish. It is said to prevent a type of food poisoning known as botulism.

Authorities said that if the incident had occurred two hours later, the commuter train would have been filled with passengers bound for the Chicago area.

Bus fares increased MILWAUKEE (AP) The Public Service Commission has approved fare increases for Wisconsin Coach Lines, which the firm requested to meet what it calls deficits in suburban bus runs. State has record jobless in Feb. of jobless Wisconsin residents in February totaled 123,300, an estimated 7,000 higher than in January, the State Employment Service reported today.

Unemployment in February was 6.5 per cent of the state work force up from 6.1 per cent in January. The number of unemployed last month established a record for February, the state agency said. The previous high was 117,400 in 1961. In February 1970 the jobless total was 84,900. The summary claimed much of the February increase was temporary, and followed a short term cutback in the transportation equipment industry.

These workers will be recalled to their jobs as production is resumed, the service predicted. The report noted that 71,094 claims for unemployment compensation were filed last week. A week earlier the total was 69,094. Wisconsin's civilian work force in February totaled 100. A year ago the same month the figure was 1,880,600, The January total this year was 1,905,700.

The drop in the work force from January to February was due, the service said, to a normal lag in outdoor jobs and production layoffs.

Sitton and other promoters of the event were subsequently fined $600 under a Department of Natural Resources order to clear litter from the fest site.

In the first year of operation, special revenue sharing money would be drawn from the highway and airport and airway trust funds and from general revenues in the same proportion as under the existing grant system. But the states would spend it as they see fit. Volpe said if the states want to put all of their money into airports, they could do so even though some of the money could come from the highway trust fund.
