Utility Rates Frozen By JERRY BROWN Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) Ac- knowledging that its previous regulations were too vague, the Price Commission has tempo- rarily frozen all private utility rates while it develops new guidelines for rate increases. The commission said Thurs- day it will announce the new guidelines by March 10. In the meantime, rates charged by privately owned utilities are frozen for up to 30 days at the rates that were in effect at midnight Wednesday. The ruling temporarily blocks about 900 requests for increases totaling billions of dollars, the commission said.

It affects vir- tually all electric, gas, tele- phone, telegraph, railroad, air- line, intercity bus and trucking, barge and pipeline rates. Publicly owned utilities, such as public mass transit systems and municipal water oper- ations, are not affected. Their rates may go up during the freeze period. Price Commission chairman C. Jackson Grayson Jr.

said the commission will hold four days of public hearings begin- ning Feb. 22. Grayson said the commission also wants to hear views of the general public. He said nearly 40 per cent of the commission's mail has concerned utility rate increases. The freeze will remain in ef- fect until the new guidelines are announced, Grayson said.

At the same time, the com- mission has extended its dead- line for a final decision on many newly instituted rate in- creases until March 25, or 15 days after new regulations are issued, whichever is sooner. This means that virtually all utility rate increases put into effect since the price freeze ended Nov. 14 remain subject to a possible rollback by the Price Commission until then. Earl Wells Earl C.

Any police officer serving on the task force would not be able to take part in other police activities outside of that assign- ment, which would be limited to organized or extra local crime or emergency situations.

The committee also reported out favorably a bill providing for a five-day temporary motor vehicle sticker to give the owner more time to get necessary repairs in order to meet vehicle inspection requirements. The House Education Com- mittee also reported out favor- ably Senate Bill 36, which would set up a separate bureau for exceptional children in the state Education Department. Mrs. Robert Reagan, Louis- ville, told the committee the state Education Department for years has been unresponsive to the needs of exceptional chil- dren except for some work with slow learners. Exceptional chil- dren also would include those who are unusually bright as well as physically handicapped.

Jim Martin of Louisville said he now has to take his deaf child to a special school in Nashville because there is no facility that can help him in Kentucky. He said he knew of 100 other Kentucky families with similar problems, some of whom leave children in St. 'Louis to attend such schools. The Nashville school is feder- ally funded, he said, but no one in Frankfort now can apply for such help or understands the problem. The committee also reported favorably en a bill which would keep a school counselor from being required to divulge infor- mation told him in confidence by a student he was counseling.

Provisions of the bill would not apply in cases of "a clear and present danger to person or property." The bill had been reported out by the same committee earlier but was returned for revision along the lines of the measure reported out Thursday. Delivery of mail by air was demonstrated in the United States and England in 1911. with the first regular U.S. civilian service beginning in 1918. Vitus Bering and Aleksandr Chirikov first reached Alaska from Russia in 1741.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Los Angeles Times said today that author Clifford Irv- ing and his research aide have admitted to federal authorities that they never met industrial- ist Howard Hughes, subject of Irving's purported "autobiogra- phy." Meanwhile, The New York Times reported that Irving was seeking to exchange his cooper- ation in the federal fraud inves- tigation for legal protection for his wife against prosecution in the tangled case in the United States and Switzerland. Asked for comment, Irving's attorney, Maurice Nessen, said, "I deny the accuracy of both stories, and I am much con- cerned that such stories should be given headlines." He added, "I feel there shouldn't be any further comments." The Los Angeles Times said sources close to the federal grand jury probe of Irving's sale of the "autobiography" said Thursday that Irving and Richard Suskind, his research- er, told authorities the book wasn't written under the cir- cumstances they had earlier claimed. Irving has said he recorded material for the book in face-to- face interviews with Hughes in motels, and parked cars throughout the western hemi- sphere, but that Hughes insisted on keeping the tapes after the interviews were transcribed. Irving and Suskind reportedly refused to spell out details of how they created the word manuscript until they get assurances that Irving's wife, Edith, won't be prosecuted by either U.S. or Swiss authorities, the Times said.

In a story from New York by John Goldman and Robert L. Jackson, the Los Angeles Times said it was understood that no promises were made by U.S. officials. Mrs. Irving is the acknowl- edged "Helga R.

Hughes" who deposited and then withdrew from a Swiss bank account $650,000 McGraw-Hill Publish- ing Co. gave Irving for payment to Howard R. Hughes for his "autobiography." The checks were made out to "H.R. Hughes." The Times said the admis- sions by Irving and Suskind were said to Have been made during a closed-door session in New York Wednesday with U.S. Atty.

Whitney North Seymour Jr. and top members of Sey- mour's staff. Attorneys for Irv- ing and Suskind also were present, the newspaper said. The New York Times, quoting "sources close to the case," said that under the still tenta- tive deal Suskind would testify under immunity from prose- cution and Irving "would plead guilty to predetermined charges." Neither Irving nor Seymour was available for immediate comment on the reports. A combined federal-state in- vestigation has been probing possible perjury, forgery and mail fraud violations in the case.

Meanwhile there were these other developments: --The Manhattan district at- torney's office announced that a second large-scale investigation of the case would begin today before a special New York County grand jury. --Baroness Nina van Pal- landt, the Danish folksinger and sometime travel companion of Irving, flew to New York to testify before the federal grand jury. She smiled prettily but had no comment for newsmen. --Another reported traveling companion of Irving's, blonde scuba diving instructor Ann Baxter, was subpoenaed in Miami, Fla. to testify before the grand jury in New York.

--In Los Angeles, Robert A. Maheu, who once headed Hughes' Nevada operations, filed a $17.5 million libel and slander suit claiming the bil- lionaire told newsmen Maheu was "a no good, dishonest son of a bitch and he stole me blind." Court sources in New York saw the county grand jury probe as reflecting disapproval with the federal government's apparent willingness to cooper- ate in a possible deal. The federal grand jury is in recess until next week when Mrs. van Pallandt, Maheu and his son, Peter, are expected to be witnesses. Mrs.

van Pallandt, a neighbor of the Irvings on the Spanish island of Ibiza, has said she accompanied Irving to Mexico last year. Maheu has previously sued Hughes for $50 million in Ne- vada state court over his firing as the head of the industrialist's $300 million holdings. In his suit Thursday in Los Angeles, Maheu did not name Hughes as a defendant but named the Hughes Tool a public firm and the firm's executive who handles the Hughes Tool account. todays FUNNY A LA MODE IS SNOW Negotiation Bill Clears Committee (Continued From Page 1) school boards, as part 01 any agreement, to establish a procedure for resolving griev- ances. An amendment, by Downing, however, changed an original provision which would- have imposed a single-griev- ance procedure on all school districts and which would have provided for binding abritration as a final means of resolving conflicts.

As amended the bill would permit arbitration only where it was agreed to in advance by teachers and school board offi- cials. Downing said he thought the amendment would improve the bill's chances of passing and make it more acceptable to school boards. "As in most things in life you must crawl before you can walk," he said. Downing noted that previous PN bills in 1968 and 1970 made no provisions for settling grievances. On the final vote, Sens.

Downing; Middleton; Lacey Smith, D-Louisville; and Wil- liam Quinlan, D-Louisville, voted to report the bill. Sens. Gene Huff, R-London, and Luther Plummer, R-Van- ceburg, voted against it while Sen. Damon Majors, D-Caney- ville, abstained. WCTT PROGRAMS Southeastern Kentucky's Most Powerful Fulltime Station FRIDAY P.M.
