Ruling Favors Low-Paid Workers Washington A federal district judge in Washington issued a ruling that could exempt some 14 million relatively low-paid workers from wage control. Judge William Jones decided that the Cost of Living Council had violated the intent of Congress in setting a $1.90 an hour as the threshold of exemption figure. Organized labor and some Democrats have said this figure is far too low. (More on Page 6 Vets Against The War Indicted Tallahassee, Fla.

Foreign governments already own enough dollars to pay the expenses of the U.S. government for most of the year a form of spending that is unlikely to occur to them, especially in their present mood.

West Germany alone holds more than $24 billion, its Central Bank having bought $800 million Friday alone to keep the dollar from sinking below the floor of 3.15 marks. In Amsterdam, Brussels and Zurich the dollar also was at the bottom of the officially permitted range and only central bank buying support kept if from falling through. That would amount to devaluation of the dollar. $1.5 Billion In One Day All told, goverment banks in Europe bought an estimated 1.5 billion dollars, the highest figure for one day this year. The figure was reached even though Britain is not buying dollars and French exchanges were closed because of Bastille Day.

In London the pound rose above $2.46, its 'highest level since it was permitted to float June 23. It had been as low as $2.43 and was valued at $2,575 immediately before the float. Finance ministers from the 10 countries of the soon to-be-enlarged Common Market meet in London Monday and are expected to make it clear to one another just how much they dislike the present situation. Experts and speculators wondered as the week ended how long the dollar buying would go on. The speculators, and many conservative businessmen, are selling their dollars for what looks to them like safer currencies, Swiss francs, West rn.arks, Japanese yen.

They Promised Last December, the world's major trading nations met at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington and fixed new rates for their currencies. They promised faithfully to buy any money offered, at those rates. The speculators are betting that some countries will break the agreement, refuse to buy at the agreed prices and let their currencies 1 a on the open market. The price of the dollar would then drop. Probably it wouldn't drop far, but American tourists would get fewer marks or yen for their dollars.

A fall in the foreign price of the dollar would give U.S. businessmen new opportunities abroad. Their goods would be 4 (C) Washington Star Washington A federal judge enjoined the Cost cf Living Council Friday from setting $1.90 per hour as the cutoff point for wage controls. In the first ruling of its kind, U.S. District Judge William B.

Jones held that the council exceeded its authority in setting and enforcing the $1.90 an hour limit. Under current regulations, raises for wage-earners making more than that are limited to 5.5rf 20 Million Affected The ruling will affect nearly 20 million people throughout the country and, according to the Cost of Living Council, it will exempt more than 50 of the nensupervising working force from wage-price controls. While Jones did not spell out precisely how much money a person must make to come under the 5.5 a year limit, he suggested a figure of $3.35 per hour which he said figures out to roughly $7,000 a year fox a family of four would be reasonable. Using statistics from the Labor Department, Jones' ruling means that nearly 10 million workers now making less than hte $3.35 per hour will be able to bargain with their employers for raises to that limit. While the ruling does not automatically guarantee those making less than $7,000 a year salary increases to that level, it does entitle them to HOMEWARD-BOUND ore two youths.

Protesters Pack hash, Ihen Iheir Knapsacks profit. Markets Would Dry Up U.S. markets would tend to dry up for foreign Businessmen. Decause tneir goods would cost Americans more. American officials see this as the main reason whv foreign governments keep on buying dollars at the agreed figure: exporters don't like the prosipect ot losing Dusiness America, especially just now when Americans look like they have more money to spend.

Another reason for keeping the Smithsonian agreement is that foreign governments don't like the prospect of marking down the value of all the billions of dollars they own. They had to do that last year when the new rates knocked more than eight cents off the value of every dollar. More important, whenever a American government buys a dollar, it has to pay with its own currency. Sit another 3.15 marks or 301.10 yen go into the national supply of money. That makes for more money chasing the same quantity of goods the classic recipe for inflation.

Most European governments have plenty of their own inflation to worry about, without importing any more. So they have been tightening controls to keep the dollars away.

ing a complicated formula, the council said the $3,968 a year figure works out to about $1.90 per hour per wage-earner. The unions, however, argued that the $1.90 figure is unrealistic in determining who is poor and they asked the court to set a higher limit based on a study done by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That study says families of four in urban areas with an annual income cf less than $7,000 a year should be considered poor. Using the $7,000 a year figure, the unions said a $3,35 an hour wage should be the minimum amfai exempted from the 5.5 limit. Unions Win Jones agreed in principle with the unions, saying that the legislative history of the wage control act indicates that Congress "rejected the poverty level earnings as prescribed by the Office of Management and Budget as a yardstick for determining exemption from wage controls." Jones cited a statement by Rep.

Wright Patman, chairman of the House Banking Committee which drew up the wage-price bill. It said: "It is the clear intention of Congress that the authority of this act should not be used to penalize wage-earners by retarding progress toward achievement of an adequate standard cf living. Certainly that standard of adequacy cannot begin much before the $7,000 a year income level is reached." Prevent Luggage the hijacker and criminal ex-torionist." Tipton, in reply, said he agrees in principle with Shaffer's proposal and would see that the matter has priority on the agenda on forthcoming airline conferences. Tipton pointed out that his association's newly formed working group of airline baggage and security officers held its first meeting here this week, shortly after receipt of Shaffer's proposal, and already has the matter under consideration. An airline industry official who declined use of his name said quick action to restrict carry-on baggage could be expected.

The wide expanse of lawn inside the park was brown and trampled from the foot traffic of 1,500 protesters who lived there for a week and thousands of tourists who strolled through to watch the antics. "It'll be back in form in no time with a little fertilizer and cultivation," said Kenneth Bethel, a parks department foreman. Senior citizens already were streaming back into the sprawling park for a go at shuffleboard, a game of cards or just to sit in the shade. "I'm sorry to see those hippies go," said Sol Steinberg, 76. "They livened up the Beach.

Measures Proposed To Weapons In Carry-On Miami Beach, Fla. As shirtless convention protesters rolled up their sleeping bags to hitchhike home Friday, city cleanup crews moved in with dump trucks to turn Flamingo Park back into a tree-shaded haven for Miami Beach's elderly. "I've got to hand it to these kids, they really know how to clean up," said Edward Hope, a truck driver for the city parks department. "They've been asking for rakes and other tools so they can help us." Groups of youths helped fill more than 60 large trash dumpsters fcr loading onto the trucks, while other non-delegates stuffed al belongings in back packs, folded up tents, gave frisbees a final fling and said goodbye to new-found friends.

"We've found that all that's needed is a reminder to pick up after yourself," said Shari Whitehead, spokeswoman for Miami Conventions Coalition, one of eight major protest groups which came here to demonstrate during the Democratic National Convention. Signs posted in the 36-acre park urged 'Eco Freaks This Is Your Chance To Take Charge" and "Pick Up After Yourself You're a Pig If You Don't." Homeward-bound youths clustered at the entrance of Lt. Calley's Father, 57, Dies Fighting At Saigon Severe fighting raged around Quang Tri Friday and South Vietnamese troops advancing from the northeast were reported within 500 yards of the provincial capital. Military sources said North Vietnamese gunners shot down a helicopter, killing Col. Nguyan Trong Bas, chief of staff of the airborne division making the advance from the northeast.

Eight South Vietnamese also were wounded when the helicopter crashed outside Quang Tri. Associated Press Correspondent Richard Blystone reported from the task force headquarters that government marines fought a series of engagements less than three miles from the city. The marines claimed they killed 69 enemy and found the bodies of 48 killed by air strikes. They reported one enemy tank, four trucks and a captured U.S.-make 105mm howitzer were destroyed.

The case arose from a suit filed by AFL-CIO President George Meany and a number of other unions against the Cost of Living Council shortly after President Nixon announced his 90-day wage-price freeze last Aug.

15. The unions objected to the council's determination that it was Congress' intent to limit exemptions to a 5.5 maximum yearly salary increase to persons making $1.90 an hour or less. What's Substandard? The principal issue in the case was a provision in the wage-price act which states that no salary increase limitations whatsoever shall be placed on persons "whose earnings are substandard or who are members of the working poor." The council adopted the $1.90 an hour figure based on a study by the Office Management and Budget which said that those urban familes are poor whose yearly income is less than $3,968.

And several airlines have taken some steps to do so. Citing the alarming number of hijackings carried out with arms or explosives concealed in hand-carried luggage, FAA Administrator John H. Shaffer asked the airlines to consider a "voluntary program to bring about a very significant reduction in such baggage." "If a passenger insists on carrying baggage into the cabin, it should be searched," Shaffer said in a letter to Stuart G.
