WPPTSPV, JANUARY 7. 17 LINCOLN, N5. JOUBNM. ID North- Hearings to resume Feb. 3 3 Budget fore the recent Democratic recapture of the Senate, said the Reagan budget was on Commonwealth appeals two years.

The vote defeated motion by Rep; Trent Lott, R-Miss, the deputy GOP leader, that would have written into House rules a ban on raising income taxes in 1987 or 1808. "Let's maintain the pledge made to the American people in the 1986 Tax Re form Act," Lott argued Although no one spoke on the House floor against such a commitment, House Speaker Jim Wright, D-Texas, has said a tax increase should be considered to re; duce the federal budget deficit By Unntd PrM htamatlorMI Hearings on. 283 appeals of rejected claims against insolvent Common a serious effort to trim the deficit and not "blue smoke and mirrors as some have suggested in the past" "You cant get there without some pala Anybody who thinks you can, you cant," Domenid said On Tuesday, in a largely symbolic vote, the House rejected 240-175 a GOP move to bar any tax increase in the next trade of arms for hostages and better relations with Iran. Committee Democrats contend that the release of hostages was the key aim Reagan first intended to use Israelis as middlemen. When the Pentagon said it would have to notify Congress since some of the arms had gone to Israel, the administration decided to use the CIA and American middlemen.

The White House and some Senate Republicans want the committee report released because they think it will absolve Reagan of wrongdoing in the affair. Senate Democrats have fought release of the report on the grounds that it is flawed and premature; they argue that much mere information is needed to reach any conclusions. White House officials disclosed some details of the chronology to underscore that North misrepresented some aspects of the secret dealings to others at the White SIGN JA3UA5Y 10-H WOMB SOW Application wtf ba aecaptad from tw janaral public lor tn Rural tariff turn fcoaa January IMS at Uncodvana, loft, Ntixuki City, and Btr1ct pott officaa for pwttxx throughout tha 563-MS zip codaa.

She said she was told that meeting the deadline was not absolutely essential and that it would be an right for her to file as soon afterward as she possibly could. She said that when she went in to file the claim, she was told that her name and correct address were on the computer and that it would not be necessary for her to sign a claim form. Among other claims slated for hearing Tuesday was that of Nancy and James Gillette, but neither they nor attorneys representing them appeared. Nancy Gillette is the daughter of Marvin Copple, a former Commonwealth officer, and the granddaughter of S.E.

The receivership denied claims primarily, it has alleged, because they were not filed by the Jaa 31, W8i deadline. Depositors appearing at the hearings have explained circumstances surrounding the reasons their claims either were not received by the deadline or not filed. Some have contended that the claims were mailed by the deadline though they were not received until after that date.

White House spokesman Larry Spcakes acknowledged that the testimony before the committee that there are errors in fact" in the chronology that North prepared He said White House officials "were suspicious" of the chronology and had talked to people who "have different recollections" of events. He said "the preponderance of evidence" supports what they said rather than what North said. But when asked whether North lied, Speakes answered, Tm not prepared to say that." Speakes said Wednesday that he did not believe that the president had read the North chronology and he himself, although he had looked at it, had not stud-led it But the spokesman added that White House Counsel Peter Wallison and members of bis staff had concluded it was inaccurate.

"Is it deliberate or was it not? Is it to the best of his recollection or was it not? We dont know that," he said. Speakes also said that an examination of a shredding machine in North's office after he left showed that no substantial amount of documentation had been destroyed. He said the White House believes it has an of the documents involved in the case. POSTAL EXAM WORKSHOP NO RISK QUAJUNTtli THE END OF THE WORKSHOP YOU DONT FEEL YOUR SCOflE WW.

Don McGinley opened the first session of the 90th Legislature at 10:01 am Wednesday by banging a wooden gavel that was used 50 years ago when the first unicameral Legislature met Historic gavel The gavel was given to the Nebraska State Historical Society by the wife of the late U.S. Sea George Norris. Norris was a major promoter of a one-house, non-partisan Legislature for Nebraska, -which was approved by voters in 1334 and began operating in 1937. Senators also reaffirmed their decision to revamp the structure of the standing committees, something that had not been changed substantially since the unicameral Legislature was instituted. Sea Ernie Chambers of Omaha failed to get enough votes to reverse the committee changes approved last year.

He said senators hadn't been fully aware of the consequences, but several other senators rose to say the matter had been carefully researched and While still chairman of the Rules Committee, Morehead warned senators that if they supported Chambers' motion they would be "adopting a personality-prone decision as opposed to a research-based decisioa" The Chambers motion failed on a 12-37 vote. As is traditional on the opening day of the Legislature, the balconies were fun of people and the aisles of the chamber were crammed with extra chairs for the mothers and fathers, sons and daughters and other relatives of state senators. Marsh wended her way through the chairs, handing heart-shaped sugar cookies to her colleagues. Clerk of the Legislature Patrick O'Donnell wore a red rose in his lapel Landis joked about wearing a three-piece suit, a change from his customarily more casual appearance. Ten new senators Ten new senators were sworn In: Brad Ashford of Omaha, a lawyer; George Coordsen of Hebroa a farmer; M.L "Cap" Dierks of Ewing, a veterinarian; Owen Elmer of Indianola, an agribusinessman; Frank Korsboj of Herman, a retail lumberman; Lorraine Langford of Kearney, a homemaker; Scott Moore of Stromsburg, a farmer and former legislative staffer; Stan Scbellpeper of Stanton, a farmer; Roger Wehrbein of Plattsmouth, a farmer; and John Weihing of Gering, a retired professor.
