THE POST-STANDARD 2 July 21,1070 Hair from Donald FT. BRAGG, N.C. (UPI)Military authorities Monday stopped a car containing Army Capt. Jeffrey MacDonald and forcibly- took him into custody to obtain a hair sample for use in their investigation of the slaying of his wife and two daughters. Several newsmen who witnessed the incident said an Army Criminal Investigation Division (CID) agent shoved Defense Attorney Dennis Eisman to the ground and pushed Attorney Bernard Segal aside as he took MacDonald from the car.

The Ft, Bragg Public Information Office, issued a statement later which said Eisman i "stood as to block the military poftce from reaching MacDonald" and that before he was "Mr. Eisman wrenched himself violently and either fell or threwX himself to the ground." The Army said "there is. no evidence to show Mr. Segal was touched during the incident." Both the Philadelphia attorneys were driven to a nearby hospital, where Eisman complained he was shoved "10 feet from where I was standing" and that an old neck injury was aggravated by the fall. Both attorneys were later released from the hospital.

Files First Suit Charging Sex Bias An Upturn WASHINGTON (AP) President Nixon's top economic adviser told Congress Monday there are strong and increasing reasons to believe that the economic decline is about over and the country soon will see signs of an upturn. Paul W.

McCracken, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said "an evaluation of basic forces which will be shaping the course of the economy in the period ahead leads to cautious optimism" that business conditions will improve the second half of 1970, McCracken and George P. Shultz, director of the Office of Management and Budget, before the Joint House-Senate Economic Committee, which has been delving into the state (of the country's economy. The administration's top economists were challenged by Democrats on the committee- Reps. Wright Patman of Texas and Henry S. Reuss of Wisconsin and Sen.

A reporter for the Fayetteville Observer said the CID agent then approached the MacDonald car and Eisman got out and told him "Prn his attorney. Under what authority are you doing this?" The newsman said the MP House Ways and Means Committee has nearly finished work on a bill that would place shoes as well as textiles and also would forbid Nixon to substitute tariffs for current quotas on oil imports, as recommended by a presidential force.

"We feel for Congress to pass a limited bill dealing with textiles only and providing that mandatory quotas will come into effect and will remain in effect only if voluntary quotas are not negotiated, we believe that approach is acceptable," to ordered his companion "place Captain under protective custody," and the CID agent grabbed Eisman and threw him to the ground, then pushed Segal aside to reach the car.

That would set off a trade war.

The President said he would favor import quotas only on a "limited basis. I've always opposed quota legislation," he said, adding that they are not in the United States' interest "they deny us an export market" and are "highly inflationary, consequently." outlawed in 1964, the Justice Department Monday accused a company and its union of discriminating against women. It indicated more such suits would follow. The charge was made in U.S. District Court in Toledo, Ohio, against Libbey-0wens-Ford Inc.

of Toledo, the sole supplier of automobile safety glass for General Motors, and the United Glass and Ceramic Workers of North America. AFL-CIO, and its local. "If people don't start following the act, there will be more suits," said Robert T. Moore, assistant phief of the Justice Department's Employment Section. The company and the union were accused of restricting women production workers to one of five Toledo area plants, of assigning them to less desirable and poorer-paying jobs and of subjecting them to a high frequency of layoffs.

The government sought a court order against the company and the union requiring that they compensate the 200 women employed in Toledo for any loss of income i from discrimination. It also sought a court order enjoining them from any future discrimination and requiring compensation to any women refused employment because of sex. Moore said it would be up to the court to determine the amount of compensation and that the company and the union would have to decide between themselves which would pay it. The case was referred to the Justice Department by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which under the 1964 Civil Rights Act receives such complaints and seeks to settle them out of court. When voluntary compliance is impossible, the complaints are sent to the Justice Department for prosecution or back to the plaintiff for possible private action.

Proxmire said the two men obviously supported President Nixon's criticism of last Saturday that Congress is responsible for the deficit and should set an effective ceiling on expenditures "He is not-telling the truth by a long shot," Proxmire said- A Republican, Rep.

At least two Nationalist bases were involved in the expansion, but U.S. diplomats said they did not promote the projects--and did not ask the government of Chiang them. State Kai-shek to explain Department and military officials said there are no American plans to base the big warplanes on Taiwan.

"My guess is they may be just doing it on a contingency basis," the U.S. ambassador, Walter McConaughy, told a Senate Foreign relations subcommittee. "They probably think that someday we might need to station our planes there, and they might be able to accommodate us. But they have not asked us to station any B52s there." A State Department specialist on China said the base projects probably would raise apprehensions in Communist China. Thomas P.

Shoesmith acknowledged that Peking might very well view the expansion as an act of potential aggression. McConaughy testified in hearings before a Senate Foreign Relations Committee in November 1969. In censored testimony made public Monday, McConaughy said Nationalist China began in 1968 "to expand a number of air bases, apparently with the objective of (deleted) capable of accommodating U.S. military aircraft as large as the B52," One of the expanded. installations is Hsinchu Air Base; references to the others deleted.

(AP) man suspected of robbing the First National Bank of West- Chester of $15,130 at gunpoint Monday was captured at his home in Putnam Lake by county sheriff's officers and state police after an intensive manhunt, the Putnam County sheriff's office reported. The money was recovered. The suspect was identified as Anthony Granata, 53, who for- ty Secretary David Packard and Nixon's chief national security adviser, Dr. Henry A.

Kissinger. There will also be a look at domestic- policy with the presidential domestic council, and a focus particularly on problems of the 1972 budget. The goal is a balanced budget then, Nixon said, and he thinks it can be achieved when the economy is at full employment, with an expected upturn in the economy in the last half of this year. As for a suggestion by Caspar Weinberger, deputy director of the White House Management and Budget office, that any cuts in defense spending be applied to reduce taxes, Nixon said that: "I do not think it would be fair to the American people to say we can have a tax reduction in 1971 or 1972." worked in and charged Danbury, with rob- in erly bery.

"We could see the key inside the door and that seemed odd. We finally called the manager, who came and opened the door.

Then he called police." Mariann Acunto, 40, another employe, said she arrived shortly before the manager was called. "When the manager got the door open, everything was neat and the safes were closed," Mrs. Acunto said, "but when he opened them, the money was gone." "I just feel like the robber! had to be someone who had been watching the office, because as soon as Dolores comes in' she locks the door behind her," Mrs. Acunto said. "If anybody came to the door before 8 o'clock she wouldn't open it unless they worked there." "About the time a -passing motorist spotted him, the two agents who were on their way to work arrived," said Ralph Paige, police public information officer.

"The officers gave him first aid, then ran into the field and found the women, who were both dead at the scene," Pagie continued. He said Reitz' discovery was the first word Dade County police had of the robbery. NEW YORK (UPI)--Mrs. Thomas E. Dewey, wife of the two-time Republican presidential candidate and former first lady of New York, died Sunday night of cancer at Memorial Hospital at the age of 67.

A pretty, gracious woman, Mrs. Dewey was as a result of her husband's nation-wide campaign i when he ran unsuccessfully against President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1944 and President Harry S. Truman in 1948. She did not, however, take a role in public life, preferring to remain a homemaker.

Hutt of Sapulpa, had just come to New York to pursue vocal studies when she met Dewey, a Columbia University law school student from Owosso, who was also studying voice. After she had a brief career as conceit singer, understudy in a national road company, and leading lady in a musical production for Paramount theaters, the couple was married in Manhattan in 1928. Dewey came to public attention as a crime-busting special attorney and later had a distinguished career as district attorney of New York County.

Mrs. Dewey is survived by her husband, who is 70, two sons, Thomas E. Jr. and John two grandchildren, and a brother, Dr. Harold D.

Hutt of Holly, Mich. A funeral service will be held at St. James Protestant Episcopal Church on Wednesday at 2 p.m. Burial will be made in Pawling, N.Y,, where the Deweys have long maintained a country home. 'vtt AP Wirnnhoto MRS, THOMAS E.
