The day before Wednesday's announcement that food prices climbed 2.2 per cent in February, the administration issued a paper" and spokesmen forecast a gradually decreasing rise in food prices in the last half of the year. All-Out-War? Senate Republican Leader Hugh Scott, after meeting with President Nixon, had told newsmen the administration was waging "all-out on food prices. Agriculture Secretary Earl L.

Butz continued to say that food prices were not as high as they would be if a general freeze on food were ordered. There were hints that the news probably would get worse before it got better. But no official dared solid forecast of declining food prices. Rate To Decrease The closest attempt was a statement in the white paper that quite possibly the rate of increase would be near zero by the end of the year. That meant food costs could continue to rise through the and on Dec.

31 could be year, higher, possibly much higher, than now. One ray of hope came from Chicago. The American Meat Institute said the wholesale price of beef dropped $3 per hundredweight since last week, a change attributed to a slight supply increase and a drop in consumer demand. No Predictions An AMI spokesman said the decrease should be reflected in grocery stores within a week or sO, but he would not predict how much food bills would be affected.

United States farmers raise more than two and a half billion chickens a year. Herbert Stein, chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers, said Wednesday that higher food costs will be reflected in consumer price indices for March and April. although he joined in the forecast of a decreasing increase in food prices after midyear. Edgar R. Fielder.

assistant Treasury Secretary for economic policy. cautioned: "The fight against inflation is far from over. Retail food prices will be especially troublesome in the next few months." Doing All It Can Stein's and Fielder's were but two of several administration statements in the past week that stressed the same points: -The government is all it can to halt the rising spiral of food prices by encouraging an increase in the food supply. -Anything government is not doing. such as imposing a freeze food prices or encouraging consumer boycotts, wouldn't work.

-And really nobody is to blame for the increase in food prices. except perhaps the American consumer who is eatting more because he's earning more and thus eating up all the food. Presenting.

Gas Price Advertising Guidelines Established ed LANSING, Mich. (AP)-Atty.

Gen. Frank Kelley released today a set of guidelines for gasoline price advertising. Kelley said the action was based on a study two weeks ago by a consumers interest organization composed of students from several state universities called Public Interest Research Group in Michigan PIRGIM). Kelley also said shortly after the PIRGIM study was released, the Michigan Retail Gasoline Dealers Association contacted him, acknowledging deceptive gasoline price advertising "had been troublesome for years" and offering to help disseminate guidelines to association members. Kelley said the guidelines will be distributed to several thousand gasoline stations and no cease-and-desist orders will be issued for 21 days.

After that time, however, Kelley said he will take action against station operators "using false, misleading and deceptive advertising." The guidelines say that, in accordance with Michigan's Deceptive Advertising Act, retail gasoline dealers' advertise- Death Notices LENA LANDWHR DELLA SHARKEY MANISTIQUE Mrs. Louis Landwhr, 82, Rte. 1, Gulliver, died early Thursday morning at the Schoolcraft Memorial Hospital where she had been a patient since March 13.

Banks Against Cuts In Interest WASHINGTON (AP) Representatives of banks that raised their prime lending rate to per cent planned to try to convince the Nixon administration today that the credittightening move is justified. Seven banks, led by Manufacturers' Hanover Trust of New York, announced the half-point increase from per cent Tuesday, saying it was necessary because of rising demand for loans. Chairman Arthur F.

Burns of the administration's Committee on Interest and Dividends promptly indicated displeasure at the increase and asked the banks to send representatives to a meeting today in his office. Disaster Fund Plan Proposed LANSING, Mich. (AP) In the of last weekend's blizzard floods, a Michigan wake, lawmaker has introduced legislation to create a $500,000 aster contingency fund." Rep.

They also are illegal if the decimal portion of the price (for example the 9 in a 34.9- cent price) is not at least onehalf the height and width of numerals representing the whole cents. Kelley said prices of all grades of gasoline sold at stations must be advertised "with the same prominence." If the price of only two gasoline grades are advertised, the fact that one grade is "a subregular grade" must be clearly and conspicuously shown. The guidelines also state that conditions for special pricessuch as a certain island or pump--also must be advertised clearly and conspicuously. Kelley said "clear and conspicuous" means "lettering which can be easily read given the speed limits, the number of lanes on the road, the traffic congestion in the area, and the position of the station with respect to the road." The State Department of Agriculture, which now checks the accuracy of gasoline pump measuring devices, will add the guidelines to its checklist, Kelley said. Kelley said the guidelines were sent to Michigan Gasoline Dealers Association, Associated Petroleum Industries of Michigan, the Michigan Petroleum Association and the Private Brand Gasoline Marketers of Michigan.

Tougher Criminal Code Asked WASHINGTON (AP) President Nixon sent to Congress today his proposed blueprint for the first complete overhaul of federal criminal laws in the nation's history--a tough document that does away with insanity as a defense, tightens obscenity laws and hits at drug- pushers. Asks Death Penalty Results Due On Drug Study WASHINGTON (AP) The National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse today sends Congress and the President the results of a a two-year, $1-million study of America's drug problems. The 13-member commission already has produced one report, released a year ago, that focused on marijuana. It found the weed to be virtually harmless to casual users and to society, and urged repeal of all criminal penalties for smoking it or holding small quantities. That recommendation was rejected by President Nixon, and has been largely ignored by Congress.

Voters in California also rejected a substantially similar proposal in a statewide referendum last November. Today's report is to cover a far broader area, including use of heroin, alcohol. amphetamines, barbituates, tranquilizers and nonprescription sedatives. The commission is headed by former Gov. Raymond P.

Shafer of Pennsylvania, a Republican. He and eight other commissioners were appointed by Nixon. The remaining four were appointed by Congress.

Baur said he planned to continue working and said he had no idea what he would do with the money. The seven winners of $50,000 each were: Paul D. Fry, 52, of Dearborn Heights; Thaddeus Orlowski, 55, of Detroit; James B. Schwark, 32, of Three Oaks; Julia Rosochacki, 67, of Detroit; John R. of Troy; Louis Dockings, of Benton Harbor: and Penny L.

Even trafficking in marijuana is covered: a conviction for distributing less ounces could bring a sentence, of up to seven years, definition of obscenity, under the administration proposal, would no longer pivot around "redeeming social value" of the work. Under the proposed law obscene material would be forbidden unless it constituted "a minor portion of the whole product reasonably necessary and appropriate to fulfill an artistic, scientific or literary purpose." Maximum sentence and fine: three years and $25,000. Nixon said the standard for insanity defense "has become SO vague in some instances that it has led to unconscionable abuse by defendants."

John McClellan, already had submitted a similar code revision but hearings his Judiciary subcommittee were postponed indefinitely because of the fight over the nomination of L. Patrick Gray Ill to be FBI director. Nowhere is the administration's toughened stand more evident than in the sections on drug trafficking. For possession of more than four ounces of heroin, for example, the maximum sentence would be 30 years and a $100,000 fine. If there were a previous heroinrelated felony conviction, the maximum would be life in prison.

Tough Drug Law A sentence also would be mandatory on conviction--not "mental disease or defect" does not constitute a defense unless the defendant lacked the state of mind requird as an element of the crime. Experts say no general stiffening is planned in penalties for crimes, such as violation of antitrust laws. But the Justice Department, in its transmittal letter to Congress, said "the fine levels have been substantially increased in order that they may be felt not just by defendants without major financial resources but by those defendants, corporate and individual, who for too long have tended to view criminal fines as an insignificant potential addition to the cost of doing Thus, the section on fines provides money sentences up to twice the gross gain or twice the gross loss caused by the offense..
