Flood Aftermath Still Holdout Play Tuesday Fischer, Told to REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Bobby Fischer was given a Tuesday noon deadline on Sunday to appear for the world chess championship or forfeit his chance for the title The ultimatum, announced by Dr. Max Euwe, president of the International Chess Federation, meant a two-day postponement of Fischer's encounter with world champion ness. They said the American was suffering fatigue. The rules require that a postponement for illness must be certified by a doctor that the host organization choses.

Typical of confusion surrounding preparations for the match, the federation doctor, Ulfar Thor-darson, left for his house early Sunday morning. At a late afternoon news conference where he announced the decision on the postponement, Euwe said: "I think there will be no play at all. That is my personal opinion." Euwe had said earlier that cancellation would be "a great loss in many respects for the Icelandic organizers who have a great investment at stake and for the game of chess itself."

The economics and- finance minister, Karl Schiller had threatened resignation because he opposes controls. He later he would stay on. The West Germans also pleased Paris by agreeing with other Common Market finance ministers at Luxembourg last Monday to hold to existing exchange rates during the uncertainty over Britain's floating of the pound. Sources said the West Germans have also sought to reconcile differences with the French by agreeing to postpone summit discussion of granting Common Market trade preferences for U.S. farm exports which France opposes.

But the wider question of U.S.-Common Market relations remains a bone -of contention between Brandt and Pompidou. The French generally see the of a unified Europe as more independent of America, while the West Germans want to balance European unity with existing transatlantic ties.

(AP) The state committee of the Conservative party of New York, at a meeting here this weekend, continued to mark time on one of the major questions facing the party whether to support President Nixon in the November election. The Conservatives suspended their backing of Nixon earlier this year because of objections to the President's overtures to Communist China and its admission to the United Nations.

Party Chairman J.

This alone was 10 times greater than any prize money ever paid to a chess player.

Fischer wants an additional 30 per cent of the gate receipts.

Fischer's representatives here had asked for a postponement on the basis, of ill i l5 after the national nominating conventions. Until then, Mahoney said, "the party's position is that we have suspended support from President Nixon." Four years ago, the Con- servative party was blocked by the Republicans from making a joint endorsement of Nixon's presidential bid because the GOP refused to form a joint slate of presidential electors with the Conservatives. But Mahoney said such a joint slate was more likely this year because the Conservatives showed their political muscle in 1970 by electing James L.

Prezioso noted in particular the completed consolidation of the towns of Highmarket and West Turin in Lewis County and the dissolution of the Steuben County village of Prattsburgh into the larger town of Pratt-sburg.

Hospital Dreves said Truman chatted with hospital employes as he was taken to his room in a wheelchair.

Dr. Graham said the ailment was related to the intestinal problem which sent Truman to the same hospital for 12 days in early 1971. Dreves said there was no definite indication how long Truman would be hospitalized. The former president had been at Research briefly last Wednesday, when his back was X-rayed for possible injuries after he slipped at his home. The X-rays were negative, Dreves said at the time.
