Natural Gas Autos MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet Union announced it will produce cars to burn compressed natural gas, a fuel that burns clean and is in abundant supply in Siberian underground depots. The compressed gas cars will help relieve pollution problems as Soviet auto production rises.

Similar cars have been tested successfully in the United States, but the lack of abundant natural gas fuel made their wide use impractical. Paper Prices to Rise WASHINGTON (AP) Wage and price controls were removed Friday from most of the $31-billion paper industry, including products ranging from toilet paper to newsprint, in a major action of the Cost of Living Council to decontrol the economy. Council Director John T.

The Yard said further tests would be made before identification was complete, "but at this stage "it is highly probable that the piece of canvas was taken from the painting," by 17th century Dutch Artist Jan Vermeer. The sliver of canvas, cut from the side of the picture stretcher and not from painting itself, was received by the London Times on Thursday with a typewritten note demanding the transfer to Belfast prisons of two Irish girls sentenced to life imprisonment after being convicted of injuring more than 200 persons in bomb attacks here a year ago. The Irish Republican Army, has denied involvement in the theft. cept the compromise.

The union chiefs were to meet again Saturday morning. About 120,000 workers will remain off their jobs until both the council and Prime Minister Endalkachew Makonnen approve, union spokesmen said. Calling off the nationwide walkout, which has crippled industry and public transport, would be a victory for Endalka-chew's five-day-old government and could end a two-week civil crisis triggered by a military revolt. "On all matters there is a meeting of minds between the negotiating committee and the government Fisseha Tsion Takie, the labor federation's secretary-general said. He did not disclose details of the formula.

Unions had pressed for 16 points, including a minimum wage, freedom to strike, free schools, cost of living raises and the right to publish a labor newspaper banned by the government. A 15-man parliamentary delegation told labor leaders they would give priority to legislation putting the agreement into effect.

Department stores, banks and some factories were closed. Big farms were idle, and government newspapers failed to appear.
