A twister destroyed three homes and damaged 12 others about eight miles west of Douglasville, early Sunday evening, according to Douglas County authorities.

"All the people in the worst-hit houses are accounted for, and we don't know of any injuries so far," said Det. Larry Lambert of the sheriff's department. Power lines were downed by the tornado as well as damaging the homes when it hit between the communities of Winston and Villa Rica shortly before 6 p.m., he said.

Thelma Hill, 23, of Tuscaloosa died when the twister slammed into a motel, according to a Druid City Hospital spokesman. Forty-six persons were treated with only three actually admitted to the facility, I.O. McCIusky, hospital spokesman said. Their names were not immediately available. "There were at least 100 homes that received some damage some destroyed with roofs being torn off and trees falling or at least partially hit," Trooper Robert Parker told The Advertiser.

Among the businesses demolished into rubble were a brand new Scottish Inn, a Holiday Inn and a large shoe store, Parker said. "There were some cases of looting," he said. "Some people would come over to the Holiday Inn and start trying to find things to take but we caught most of them." Work of rescue people was made much harder because "of the thousands and "thousands of spectators there, trying to see what damage had been done," he said.

"This has placed on federal trial judges an enormous additional burden in terms of guiding a large proportion of both the prosecutors and the defense counsel on how to try a case. urge all state and local bar associations to cooperate with the courts to establish a screening process so that no lawyer appears in federal court unless certain minimal standards of training and experience are met." Burger that along with the lack of training and experience of many lawyers appearing in federal courts "is the absence of adequate education in standards of professional ethics and conduct. "This is not confined by any means to the trial of cases it is pervasive throuhout our profession and it is a subject we have treated with a mixture of apathy and inertia," he said. Burger, in his fifth State of the Judiciary Message to the ABA, appealed to the lawyers' group to lend its prestige behind a fight to Congress for additional funds and personnel for the courts. Specifically, he asked for an immediate 20 per cent increase in federal judicial salaries and placing future salary adjustment scales on an automatic annual cost-of-living basis once equitable standards have been achieved with career federal personnel.

The Chief Justice said that during the past decade civil and criminal cases together have increased 45 per cent in federal courts. He added that more persons are going to trial and these legal proceedings are lasting longer than ever before. "Well, it's an hour earlier here today.

Burger of the U.S. Supreme Court said The large turnover rates on staffs of U.S. attorneys and public defenders' offices, coupled with increasing crime and added caseloads have outstripped the capacities of the federal court system, he said. "The standards for selection of the these lawyers on whom the system of justice must depend should be made sufficiently attractive so that the federal courts will not continue to be used as a 'bush league' facility to train trial lawyers for private practice," Burger said. Burger's remarks were prepared for delivery to a midyear meeting of the American Bar Association.

Tax Gut Bill Labor Group Proposes Waits Action reakup of Oil Companies House By Inside Today Page Amusements 17 Bridge 17 Classified Comics 18 Crossword 17 Editorial 4 Lcgals 18 Second Front 13 Sports n-16 Today's Living 10-11 TV Log 17 Weather Map 2 Emergency Hospital JACKSON From 7 a.m. Monday To 7 a.m. Tuesday HELP-A-CRISIS 265-9576 MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) The AFL-CIO proposed on Sunday new antitrust legislation to break up the giant oil companies and place them under strict government regulation. The hardships suffered a year ago during the Arab oil embargo "pales into insignificance compared to what looms ahead unless immediate and drastic action is taken," said the labor organization's executive council.

In a statement approved by the council at its winter meeting, the AFL-CIO blamed multinational oil companies for the energy crisis and recommended "a comprehensive energy policy" which would reduce imports, cut consumption and increase domestic energy supplies. "We believe that the energy emergency was a result of policy decisions made by the multinational oil companies to squeeze the consumers, force them to pay higher prices and fatten the profits of the oil companies," the union chiefs said.

HANS WALDER, former Swiss federal attorney, firmed he had received a call from the U.S. Embassy in Bern about Robert Vesco the day after the American financier was jailed in Switzerland, but said he didn't act on the request to release him because the crime Vesco was accused of committing was outside his jurisdiction. SUSAN FORD has applied, for a job as a summer intern photographer with the Washington Post, the newspaper that help propel her father into the White House by exposing the Nixon Watergate, scandal. SEN. GEORGE 'MCGOVERN, who was denied a chance to address Congress as President when he was defeated in his bid for the White House, published his State of the Union Message in Rolling Stone magazine.

SEN. LLOYD BENTSEN, who recently announced a bid to run for President, told of support for a "fully rebateable" gasoline tax starting at five cents a gallon and reaching 20 cents a gallon after four years. "JEAN GIBBONEY, whose husband drew national attention when he offered to sell an eye to pay for her medical care, died of cancer. EDWARD GURNEY, a former Republican senator from Florida, who gained national prominence on the Senate Watergate Committee, goes on trial on charges of bribery and making false statements to a grand jury. Among measures proposed by the council was legislation to: Prohibit a single company from owning competing sources of energy.

A number of the major coal, natural gas and uranium producers are owned by the major oil companies, a practice which the AFL-CIO said has hampered the development of alternative energy sources. Require the oil giants to divest themselves of their marketing operations so as to separate the sale of petroleum products from the production and refining of crude oil. -Treat the oil companies as-public utilities subject to stringent federal regulation. -Remove the importation of oil from private hands and place it under government authority. "The government should determine the amount of oil imported, negotiate its price and provide for its internal allocation," the AFL-CIO said.

Arabs to Review Boycott on Firms CAIRO (AP) Calling the economic boycott of Israel one of the "most strategic weapons" in the Arab arsenal, Commissioner General Mohammed Mahgoub opened a 10-day conference of the Boycott of Israel organization on Sunday to review requests from 60 firms to be removed from the blacklist. The blacklist includes Ford Motor Revlon lipsticks and Coca Cola. Ford President Lee Iacocca recently made a two-week fact-finding visit to the Middle East and said in a copyright article in Sunday's Detroit News he was hopeful the 12-year boycott of Ford products would be eased. But he said Ford would continue to do business with Israel. Iacocca also urged the United States to use "all the resources at its command" to break the Arab oil cartel that has sent oil prices skyrocketing.

"Cartels are vicious and exist only long enough to be broken," he said. "That should be our final objective." In addition to companies, the Arab boycott list includes movie actors such as Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor and singers Frank Sinatra and Harry Belafonte all taboo because of the help they have given Israeli causes such as bond drives in the United States. In a keynote speech at Arab League headquarters to representatives from 17 states with boycott offices, Mahgoub said the recent furor over Arab exclusion of Jewish-owned banks from international money market deals was a demonstration of the organization's strength. The semi-official Cairo newspaper Al Ahram said before dealing with its agenda the conference would consider issuing a statement clarifying its stand on the banking issue. According to diplomatic sources, conservative Arab states that have moved their oil money around freely in these capital markets are concerned by the new Arab assertion of economic power and want ground rules made clearer.

WASHINGTON (AP) A $21.28 billion tax cut bill to combat recession awaits action in the House this week while Democrats argue over whether to use it to kill the depletion allowance worth $2.5 billion a year to oilmen. Energy tax hearings open March 3 but some anti-oil forces are demanding the 22 per cent petroleum depletion allowance be killed immediately as part of the urgent tax cut bill congressional Democrats want to rush to President Ford to help pull the nation out of economic quicksand. In the Senate, liberals plan a new effort, possibly Tuesday, to make it easier to cut off filibusters. Sloppy parliamentary work foiled them last Thursday when they appeared to be nearing success. At present, the Senate is at an impasse with the filibuster fight blocking action on a House-passed bill to keep the Penn Central and other Northeast railroads in operation.

A new effort to pass the rail bill is expected Monday. If it fails, Senate leaders may try to put that measure aside and return to the effort to permit three-fifths of the Senate, rather than two-thirds, to limit debate. The Penn Central railroad trustees, meanwhile, meet Monday to decide whether to shut down or continue operating in hopes of getting more federal money. The latest threatened closure is prompted by $16.4 million in bills due Feb. 25, including some payroll checks.

The sprawling railroad serves 16 Eastern and Midwestern states, two Canadian provinces and the District of Columbia. Its 40,000 miles of track, 4,200 locomotives and 200,000 pieces of rolling stock are the backbone of the economic well-being-of a region which produces about half the nation's goods. The emergency tax measure carries cuts of $16.21 billion for chiefly low to moderate income persons and $5.07 billion for businesses. While approving this, the House Ways and Means Committee refused to attach a petroleum depletion allowance repeal proposal. But the caucus of all 289 House Democrats meets Tuesday in special session to consider instructing the 11 of them who control the Rules Committee to send the tax cut bill to the full House Thursday under terms making repeal of this controversial oil tax break eligible for action as an amendment.

For individual taxpayers, the tax cut bill provides for a quick economic boost by a distributing more than $8.1 billion in lump-sum refunds of a general 10 per cent of 1974 tax liability up to a top rebate of $200. Anybody who paid under $100 in income taxes last year would get it all back. All other taxpayers would get a minimum $100 to a maximum $200. At the same time, the bill would give taxpayers another roughly $8.1 billion in additional take-home pay through lower tax withholding this year. This would reflect the bill's boosts in minimum standard deductions which benefit lower-income persons and in the maximum and percentage of the standard deduction used by those who do not itemize.
