WASHINGTON (UPI) President Nixon proposed to Congress today a federal economy act to eliminate or scale down nonessential, "sacred cow" government programs. He said the saving would run as high as $2.5 billion in fiscal 1971. spokesman called "increasing police repression aimed at stifling student dissent." One demonstrator identifying himself as Kevin McEl-hinny, 17, San Jose, said the bank was under siege "because it was there, it was the biggest capitalist establishment thing around." The outbreak of fires and window smashing followed a campus speech Wednesday afternoon by William M. a defense attorney in the Chicago riot trial. All the windows of the same bank branch were smashed in the start of the trouble Tuesday afternoon.

Sheriff James W. Webster had described the situation as "completely out of hand" Wednesday evening. He asked Gov. Ronald Reagan for Na-tional Guard troops, but Guardsmen were not mobilized. The bank fire was set by several protesters who rolled a gasoline-soaked trash bin in through a smashed window, and set it ablaze against a wall, deputies said.

Students from a nearby fraternity put out the blaze, but protesters fired it up again just before midnight. BEFORE the sweep of the area, helicopter officers using a bullhorn and a powerful spotlight ordered the demonstrators to disperse, but very few did. Shortly before the bank fire, demonstrators overturned and burned a patrol car after the two outnumbered deputies fled.

RIKE WILL continue as a director of Federated Department Stores, as a member of its executive committee and as a Federated vice president. Rike's is part of the Federated chain. The grandson of Rike's founder said he made his decision out of a desire to "take life a little easier." Ralph Lazarus, Federated chairman, had this reaction: "David Rike has, for many years, rendered a truly distinguished service, both to the Dayton community and to Federated.

We can certainly understand why he wants to be relieved of day-to-day operating responsibilities, but we can't help wishing that we could continue to have his full-time participation in the division that bears his name." EBERHARD, who became president in 1967, said he has planned his early retirement for some time in order to pursue personal interests. He said: "Retailing is an exciting business and Rike's is a great Welfare senior Republican on the committee, told newsmen the family allowance plan has been approved.

Brooks began by i i Brooklyn-based Abraham Straus as an executive trainee. After six years he left, to return to the chain in 1958 at Burdine's in Miami.

In a special message to the House and Senate, Mr.

Nixon said: "NEVER HAS the need to curtail unnecessary spending been as vital as it is now. The rising cost of living, which causes so much hardship to so many of our people, must be arrested; a balanced budget is needed to hold the line on rising prices and i rates." The savings invisioned by the President were included in 1971 budget totals, which he submitted to Congress about a month ago.
