"Certainly any additional controls placed on sulfur dioxide emissions should be done only if there is some certainty that it will result in demonstrable ecological and health improvments to justify the tremendous commitment of our resources." A subcommittee member. Rep. Thomas Luken, 0-Cincinnati, said, "There is no environmental crisis caused by acid rain." Luken called acid rain a "glamour issue" and an "overnight media sensation." "It's an incredibly expensive experiment in which Ohio is chief guinea fug," Luken said of proposed egislation co-sponsored by subcommittee chairman Rep. Henry A. Waxman of California, who is chairman of the subcommittee.

Cleveland Mayor George Voinovich, who also was representing the National League of Cities, said the league supports a reduction of acid rain levels but also believes the issue should be addressed prudently. CLEVELAND (AP) Gov. Richard Celeste said Friday he considers acid rain a serious environmental problem, but he would not support any solution that costs Ohioans'jobs. Celeste spoke here at a hearing by the Health and Environment Subcommittee of the House Energy Commerce Committee, which is considering legislation to reduce acid rain levels. While not embracing the proposed legislation, Celeste said the bill was a step forward in solving what be called a "national problem." "Action is needed soon to stop acid rain from endangering the fragile environment in vulnerable areas of this country and Canada," Celeste said.

Acid rain has been blamed for killing fish in lakes and streams in the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. Many scientists maintain acid rain is caused by sulfur dioxide emissions from coal-burning plants in the Midwest. Opponents of acid rain control legislation say it would result in skyrock "No. I haven't watched "Haven't watched any. any of it-haven't got a Don't have the time." TV."

Ohio Governor Richard Celeste presents the state's view on the proposed acid rain cleanup legislation in testimony before a House Environmental Subcommittee field hearing in Cleveland Friday. AP Patrol awaiting autopsy report pill close Zimmer office eting electric rates and lost jobs in the coal fields. The governor said Ohio emits more sulfur dioxide than any other state but should not be asked to take on a disproportionate share of an acid rain solution.

Celeste oulined the critieria Ohio will use to evaluate any acid rain proposal before Congress. First is job protection, he said, followed by fairness and affordability, funding of costs and the effectiveness in solving the acid rain problem. "As we meet today, a half million Ohioans are without jobs," he said. "I cannot support any program which compounds this problem." Others who testified disagreed on whether acid rain is a media creation or an issue that has been too long ignored by government officials. "American industry is in the process of its greatest restructuring since World War II," said William L.

I watched the American couple skate and that was about it." Kelly Crider, 16, Newark, student at NHS NRC to CINCINNATI (AP) A U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission official's visit Friday to the unfinished Zimmer power plant was to discuss shutting down the NRC's Zimmer inspection office, not to meet with utility executives, an agency spokesman said. James G. Keppler, the NRC's Chicago-region administrator, was meeting with the agency's resident inspectors at Zimmer to discuss closing the inspection office there in light of last month's announcement that the plant will be converted to use coal were slightly injured in the scuffle, the officials said.

Wilcox said Friday the full autopsy report from the Franklin County Coroner's Office may take two to three more weeks. "Right now, it's premature," he said, explaining the Patrol's refusal to disclose results. "We're going to have to find out first what the coroner finds." Once those results are in, the patrol will give the information to the Scioto County coroner; who will make the official report. The information may also be turned over to the county proseuctor. The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio, meanwhile, says it has asked for a federal investigation into the death.

It's very inter-esting to see the countries compete against each other." Scott Wolfe, Newark, student ject, Dayton Power Light Co. and the Columbus Southern Ohio Electric jointly announced Jan. 21 that they will convert the unfinished plant from nuclear to coal use. The utilities said they made the decision because of the uncertainties of obtaining a nuclear plant operating license and because of the soaring cost of completing Zimmer as a nuclear plant estimated to be at least $3.1 billion. Strasma said that although Keppler was going to the Zimmer site, he had not planned to meet with any officials.

"I suspect he may be met by a security guard at the gate, but there's no meeting," Strasma said.

WILLIAMSPORT, Ohio (AP) Two officials of federal banks that deal with farmers met with some 400 of the clients and possible clients Thursday night and predicted that farm financial conditions will improve during 1984. Allen J. Everist, vice president of the Federal Land Bank of Louisville told the farmers although they have been dealt a "one-two" punch from the environment and that the Land Bank has been caught in the wake of an unsettled economy, most farmers have made adjustments necessary to survive.

He said that Federal Land Bank re-authorized 425 loans in Ohio last year and foreclosed on 52 Ohio farms in 1982 and 39 more last year. Richard Carpenter, senior vice president of the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank, also spoke to the fanners who gathered at Westfall High School. COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -The Highway Patrol investigation into the death last week of an inmate at Ohio's top security prison is complete except for autopsy results, the director of patrol investigations said Friday. "We've completed our investigation," Capt. Dick Wilcox, commander of the investigation section, said.

"We're waiting for the results of the autopsy to be finalized." Wilcox wouldn't say what the patrol learned in its investigation into the death Feb. 9 of Jimmy J. Haynes, 25. Haynes had been under psychiatric observation at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville when he began acting violently self-destructive, prison officials said last week. Haynes developed breathing problems while alone in a medical cell after being subdued "Although we haven't met personally, I know that we are all here because we have a keen interest in agriculture and its future whether it's through your farming operations or our cooperative affiliations," Everist said.

Everist said 1983 was not a good year for farmers, but he expects 1984 to be better. "I think most of us will agree that we have just emerged a little wiser perhaps a little stronger from 1983, which marked our fourth consecutive year of a weakened economy. Although the financial forecasts indicate that 1984 will be brighter, the past 12 months were very, very difficult ones for many farmers and their cooperatives particularly in this area, "he said. Everist said some farmers have been unwilling to make some very difficult decisions to deal with their problems after recognizing them. Naval Station, said the plane had been returning to the base on Puerto Rico's east coast after doing practice take offs and landings on one of the carriers participating in the Navy's month-long training exercises.

The carriers Saratoga and America are among 33 Navy ships taking part in the exercises, which are to end Saturday. The crash was reported by the pilot of a second A4 Skyhawk returning to Roosevelt Roads with Merrill, Tull said. Both pilots were alone in their aircraft. The Navy initiated an immediate air-sea search of the area 15 miles south-southeast of Vieques, the Navy spokesman said, aided by the Coast Guard and Civil Defense units.The effort was called off after 21 hours. Merrill, a 1980 graduate of the Naval Academy at Annapolis, was attached to the Fleet Composite Squadron 10 at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

He was not married. The Navy lists the value of the A4 Skyhawk at $28.3 million.

However, more time has a direct correlation to more debt and more interest accumulation," he said. "There are some situations in which the risk of granting more time is too great for the lender to take. And, in reality, it is too much of a risk for the borrower to take.

But because we are a cooperative, we must react responsibly in regard to decisions affecting all borrowers," Everist said. Carpenter said that despite the adversity facing farmers in the past few years, the "vast majority of our farmers are in good financial standing" and that good farming records and a sound financial background are the biggest criteria for acquiring and retaining economic parity. "We are in a vastly different environment than we were five years ago," he said. "Tomorrow or next year may not be better than today but we do have to be optimistic in the agricultural business and good loan officers have to be responsive to your lending needs." "We look for substantially reduced losses in the months ahead," Carpenter continued, "But it is important for you and us that we work closely togetner.
