And he said the curb on shipments on U.S. hides abroad would be carried out through an export ticket system which win avoid Tnewinafallprofits for exporters or foreign buyers. Inflationary Pressure Peterson, at a news conference, said inflationary pressure has developed on cattle hide prices because demand is exceeding supply.

He said hides which used to average 14 cents a pound by last week had climbed to an historic high! of 29.79 cents a pound.

The Commerce secretary also avuiucu any tiaiu-auu-iaai iuic- cast about the future effect on shoes and meat prices. "We believe it will result in a reduction in the price of American-made shoes," he said.

Other officials told newsmen that shoes would be going up i 1 .1 .1 less in pnwc uiau uicjr wuum without the export limitation on hides. They said shoes have gone up 1 per cent i i since January, and that a further 10 per cent had been forecast by this fall in the absence of a cost curb action.

Peterson said the limitations on hide be administered through an export ticket arrangement superior, to what he termed the "chaotic and unfair" system used for hide export controls in 1966. i.

"It's going to be a real bloody mess," predicted one AFL-CIO headquarters source of next Wednesday's meeting of the labor federation's 35-man ruling executive council to de cide the issue The 77-year-old Meany and the- once-vaunted political strategists of the AFL-CIO's Committee on Political Educa tion (COPE) left the Democratic National Convention in bitter disarray after badly losing their effort to block McGovern's 'I never saw such a con fused, unrealistic group in my life," said one labor official who disagreed with COPE's ef forts to push Sens.

Meany and the AFL-CIO had said before, the convention they would never help Alabama Gov.

George Wallace's bid for the nomination, labeling him "anti-labw" and a "racist." Wurf has few visible allies on the AFL-CIO executive council long ruled by Meany, but one insider said the council would split down the middle in a di rect vote on whether to endorse McGovern. If the vote is simply on a de cisioiv not to make any endorse ment this Meany probably would win against a handful of opponents on the council, leaving it up to the AFL-CIO's ir9hdivTduallabor unions whether to make their own presidential endorsements. It would be the first time in the history of the AFL-CIO that it did not endorse a Democratic presidential candidate.

The 50-page document, pre pared before the convention in Meany's eighth-floor AFL-CIO headquarters offices over looking the White House a block away, accused McGovern of being antilabor, against some civil rights issues and public transit, environmental protection" and other needs. Gun Control McGovern says he favors "a complete outlawing of these little handguns these so-called Saturday night specials." But "there is, no need for further restrictions on the iong guns that are used for sporting purposes." Military Draft The senator is a leading proponent of replacing the draft with an all-volunteer Army. He also favors increasing servicemen's wages "until they are comparable with civilian standards." Health Care McGovern favors considerably greater government Involvement in financing and delivering, health care to all Americans, including a federally funded National Health Care Plan and medical study of malnutrition.

Catholics Evacuate Belfast BELFAST (AP) More than 1,000 women and children fled Roman Catholic areas of Bel fast on Saturday and took trains for Ireland, fearing an upsurge in Northern Ireland's violence.

Their exit followed hours of shooting in which two soldiers and two supposed gunmen died. Almost 5,000 now have headed south to escape the continuing violence- in Belfast and other centers. I he evacuation was organ ized by politicians who have Irish Republican Army, fight ing to merge mainly Protestant Nortnern Ireland with pre dominantly Catholic Ireland. The departure brought charges from Protestants that the IRA would be organizing a weekend push against the Brit ish army. Catholics, by contrast, contended that the Brit ish were planning sweeps through Catholic areas which had become IRA strongholds.

One of the dead soldiers was a bomb disposal expert killed as he sought to defuse a milk churn packed with explosives on a country road near the border with Ireland. The other was a soldier shot dead in the Suffolk district of western where troops have battled IRA gunmen over the past five days. i. In Londonderry, Northern Ireland's second city, gunfights and riots forced the army to stop building permanent barri cades around their controlled Bogside and Creggan districts. As troops moved in to build the barricades, Catholic women staged a sit-down protest and youngsters pitched in with rocks and bottles.

Within minutes the troops came under sniper attack but none were injured. Special Economy The Democratic candidate has sponsored legislation to assist with economic conversion of U.S. private industry from production of military-related goods to civilian goods and services. The bill, among other things, requires that part of the profits U.S. companies earn on military, space and atomic energy contracts be used as benefits to workers whose work weeks have been shortened or jobs eliminated due to cuts In military spending.

It also offers an Incentive to employers to plan for the transfer of their workers to civilian production.

An Associated McGovern Approach Has Broadened Press Roundtable By GREGG HERRINGTON Associated Press Writer MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) -George McGovern started the long road from small-state senator to presidential nominee armed with a single major issue: opposition to the Vietnam war. But as the South Dakotan developed into a major candidate, he broadened his approach by programming stands on a major reduction in military spending and serious reforms in welfare and taxes. Here, briefly, are the Issues McGovern will be using in his fight against President Nixon: Vietnam McGovern considers the conflict a Vietnamese civil war In which the United Slates never should have become Involved, even though the Soviets and Chlneie are supplying the North with arms.

On his Inauguration day, McGovern also favors re-establishment of diplomatic relations with Cuba. It could begin "by inviting Castro or some designated person to Washington, or vice versa." Middle East "We have an obligation to furnish Israel the advanced aircraft and other equipment necessary to prevent attack It should be an ongoing commitment, based solely on the military requirements of the day." McGovern also says that It is a thousand-in-one situation but "if It were necessary to save Israel I would, without question," commit U.S. forces there. By making it clear to the Arabs and their Soviet allies "thuty we're going to back the state1 of Israel, you head off the possibility" of World War III erupting over the Mideast. i III I I I 111 DISCUSS PLANS Robbie Walker, 19, (left) candidacy of Dan Walker, an Independent and her mother, Mrs.
