The first test flights are scheduled for late 1972, with commercial use expected by 1978.

The $195 million in SST funds this fiscal year will allow construction to begin. The government approved this spring final design plans for the giant plane. James M. Beggs, un- This would rise to $314 million, in fiscal 1971, then progressively fall to $189 million in fiscal 1972, $48 million in fiscal 1973 and $15 million in fiscal 1974. To meet a major objection from some opponents, Secretary of Transportation John Volpe said the SST would not be allowed to fly over population areas until the noise factor comes within acceptable limits.

Volpe said government invest is going to be built." Nixon noted his decision on the 300 passenger airliner came after a "spirited debate within the administration." Opponents of the project have argued it is impractical, too expensive and too noisy.

In addition to the need for continued U.S. leadership in world aviation, Nixon said a further reason for going ahead with the SST the plane "would bring the world closer togethei in a physical sense and in time." Referring to the SST as a "massive stride forward in transportation," Nixon said it would bring Tokyo as close to Washington in travel time as London is now. Volpe listed further reasons for the a i i 1 1' at i favorable decision on the SST the need to protect the U.S. balance of payments, the great impact on industry, employment the SST will provide and the necessity to compete with existing Russian, British, and French SST programs. Sen.

Henry Jackson, present during the an nouncement, predicted a tough Senate battle over the SST appropriation. "It will be a real fight not unlike the battle over the ABM," said Jackson, one of the project's prime supporters. Backers of the SST had called for $200 million to keep the project going fullblast through next June 30. Opponents of the project contend much of the $600 million the government already has put out for research and design study has been wasted. They say sonic booms would make it impossible to fly the plane over inhabited areas and that the federal funds are needed to solve other domestic problems.

It is estimated another $600 million in government funds will be required before the first of two prototypes of the Boeing Corp. produced aircraft can be flight test- CU 111 491. The airplane, to carry 300 passengers, would be expected to go into commercial use in 1978. The U.S. government has accepted Boeing's revised, fixed, wing design and the company is ready to begin production this year.

Contact provisions provide the government would recover its investment after the sale of 300 planes. Boeing hopes to sell more than 500 SSTs by 1990, which would mean possibly a $1.1 billion royalty to the gov ernment. U.S. efforts to build a big supersonic jet have been spurred by similar projects in the Soviet Union and by a British-French combine. A Boeing official, complaining about the delay in the decision, said last month the sonic boom problem and other obstacles had been overstated.

Bob Withington, Boeing's SST program director, said the company had been working on the assumption the plane would be flown over land at subsonic speeds. And he said be thought the noise level for takeoffs and landings could be controlled. 'Black Monday' Held In 4 Cities By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS "Black Monday" was observed in four cities across the nation by Negroes protesting what they charge is job discrimination in the building trades. In Chicago, Oklahoma City and Seattle, parades and rallies were held. UNITED NATIONS, N.

Y. (AP) Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahmoud Riad asserted today U.S. military and political support of Israel violates provisions of the U.N. charter and is "against peace in the Middle East." In an attack on U.S. policy, similar to one made Monday by Jordan, Riad told the U.N.

General Assembly that the United States is capable of aiding in a settlement but is obstructing it by supplying Phantom jets and other aid to Israel. "The United States support to Israel, and its share of responsibility in the present state of aggression and denial of peace in the Middle East," he said, "acquires a more serious character when we recall that this runs contrary to the commitments which the United States has previously undertaken." Riad rejected Israel's demands for direct negotiations could be a continuation of aggression and the instrument for consolidating the results of aggression." Around The World Marshall Refuses To Delay Trial WASHINGTON (AP) Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall denied without comment today a request to put off the trial of eight demonstrators in the Democratic National Convention disturbances last summer. Lawyers for. the demonstrators had asked the court for a stay order pending further appeals of lower court decisions. The eight are set to go to trial Wednesday before U.S.

Curfew Lifted For 4 Hours BOMBAY, India (AP) Officials lifted a round-the-clock curfew for four hours in the city of Ahmedabad today to allow its one million citizens to buy essentials. Police had to intervene to keep some shops from being mobbed. The Bombay newspaper Janmabhoomi reported that 10 persons were killed within three hours of the lifting of the curfew. There was no official confirmation. Th curfew was imposed Saturday after savage communal rioting touched off by reports of Moslem insults to Hindu holy men and the cows held sacred by the Hindus.

Pilots Delay One-Day Strike LONDON (AP) The international airline pilots' organization has indefinitely delayed a one-day strike to protest plane hijacking while the group's leaders work to bring the problem before the United Nations. Basil Edwards, administrative secretary of the International Federation of Airlines Pilots Associations, warned: "If nothing is done soon, all members of IFALPA could get a 15-day warning which would bring them out on strike in October." S. Korean Activate Phantom Jets TAEGU, Korea (AP) The South Korean air force activated its first F4D Phantom fighter-bomber squadron at this air base 140 miles southeast of Seoul today. South Korea recently received 18 Phantoms from the United States under a special $100-million military aid program approved after the Pueblo incident early last year. The modern, multimillion-dollar jets are expected to increase South Korea's air defense against the numerically superior North Korean air force.

The United States must go ahead with the plane called the SST "to maintain its leadership" in the world aircraft industry, Nixon said. "I want the United States to continue to lead the world in air transport," he declared at a White House brief. "The SST Blount Postal Plan Rejected By House Unit WASHINGTON (AP) President Nixon's postal corporation proposal was voted down by the House Post Office Committee today under a confused parliamentary procedure that left in doubt any prospect for revival.

The vote, which was recorded unanimously by the 26-member committee, was to accept an alternate reform plan by Chairman Thaddeus J. Dulski, as the basic approach to be followed. That vote was expected. But under procedure approved last week, there was supposed to be a second vote on whether to rewrite the chairman's plan into a corporation bill. But objections were raised and the second vote was not taken.

Dulski said he will call a new meeting, possibly next week. But he indicated that as far as he is concerned for the present the committee has chosen his bill over the administration's proposal to turn the nation's mail system over to a government-owned corporation. Postmaster General Winton M. Blount pressed the effort for the administration plan. Blount reportedly personally visited wavering House Post Office Committee members on the eve of today's vote to secure their support for the plan while union officials applied pressure to vote it down.

The challenge to the corporation concept came from an alternate postal reform bill, favored by the unions, introduced by committee Chairman Thaddeus J. Dulski, The corporation would put the nation's mails under a board of directors who would be responsible for all business operations, including setting of postal rates subject to congressional veto. Dulski's plan would keep the Post Office Deaprtment intact and leave postal employes in civil service with wages set by Congress but would give the department more businesslike control over its operations. The outcome of the vote was in doubt up to the start of today's session with the major issue the administration plan's labor-management provisions: The unions had insisted on the right to strike, otherwise, they say they would be at the self-supporting, government-owned postal corporation's mercy. Blount stood by the proposed corporation machinery for compulsory arbitration, in lieu of the right to strike, when major contract disputes had reached an empasse.

Moscow Parley MOSCOW (AP) Leonid I. Brezhnev, general secretary ot the Soviet Communist party, met today with Czechoslovak Ambassador Vladimir Koucky. An announcement said they had a conversation in a "friendly atmosphere." The purpose of the meeting was kept secret. SumiTiet's Gone Did you feel the chill against your backbone when you awoke this morning? Old Reb did! It's getting cold and today's the first day of fall, 1969, if you didn't know it Fall came in at 12:07 this morning, and it brought a chilly breeze with it We don't need the weather bureau to tell us a cold front is headed this way; for all the signs of autumn, maybe it's here already. UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.

(AP) The Kremlin has sent word that it will reply "soon" to President Nixon's bid to begin U.S.-Soviet talks on curbing the nuclear arms race. This message from Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko to Secretary of State William P. Rogers Monday night fell short of U.S. hopes.

It meant indefinite further delay on the already much-delayed disarmament parley the two superpowers agreed long ago to hold. Gromyko did not specify what he meant by "soon." State Department press officer Robert J. McCloskey commented: "We were satisfied that what was said was meant, and we accepted it." Rogers and Gromyko held a Haynsworth Colleague Differs On Stock Buy AP Wfrepbolo meeting with his Soviet counterpart since Nixon took office avowing "negotiation rather than confrontation" with the Communist camp. Gromyko hosts a follow-up meeting Friday night. On SALT The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks which Nixon had publicly hoped to get under way by mid-August in Vienna or Geneva Gromyko told reporters only that "the time will come" for a Soviet statement.

McCloskey reported Gromyko told Rogers: "We will give you a reply on a time and place for preliminary talks soon." U.S. officials said the term preliminary talks meant discussion of the mechanics methods of conducting the talks, agenda, use of interpreters, place, time and similar details. It has been three years, according to the U.S. version, since the United States first proposed the talks. Neither Washington nor Moscow has backed down from its professed desire to hold discussions aimed at restraining their spiraling atomic arms rivalry.

U.S. officials doubt that Gro-myko's "soon" means an answer before Rogers leaves the U.N. General Assembly session early in October. But they still expect Moscow's reply will come in a matter of weeks rather than months. Barry Favors Baker In Race WASHINGTON (AP) Sen.

Barry Goldwater endorsed Sen. Howard H. Baker today in the race for Senate Republican leader, saying the party needs younger leadership. Baker, of Tennessee, is 43. Sen.

Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania, the acting GOP leader or whip, is 68. "I merely think that the generation represented by men like Sen. Scott and me must come to realize that the future of the United States and of the entire Free World depends on the young leaders who are coming up today," the Arizona senator explained. With Scott claiming he is the favorite in Wednesday's election of GOP leader, campaign activity is increasing among contenders for the Pennsylvanian's current job. Baker is one of several GOP senators for the post three-hour dine-and-talk session at Rogers hotel suite.

The Middle East, the United Nations, Germany-Berlin and the treaty to outlaw the spread of nuclear weapons but not Vietnam or Red China also were discussed. Neither Gromyko, who said "we had a very good dinner," nor the Americans claimed progress on these issues. U.S. sources did say the discussion provided a clearer understanding of the opposing views on the (Middle East and the two sides agreed to continue the talks between Assistant Secretary of State Joseph Sisco and Soviet Ambassador Anatoly F. Dobryn-in on this crisis.

Sogers apparently found the going slow in his first private He added, however, that he did not think he would have been legally disqualified since the case had been decided and it did not involve a matter that would affect the value of the stock. Sen. Birch Bayh, raised questions about the purchase. The 4th U.S. Court of Appeals, which Haynsworth's heads, publicly announced a decision in favor of Brunswick Feb.

2, 1968. But the Justice Department, in a letter to committee Chairman Sen. James O. Eastland, supported Haynsworth last weekend with a letter saying the case had been "substantially decided" on Nov. 10, 1967.

The Justice Department letter said the case involved competitive liens on used bowling alley fixtures in Charleston, S.C., and it would not appear that the outcome "could conceivably have affected the market value of Brunswick stock." After the letter was made public, Bayh asked Eastland to request a list of all of Haynsworth's stock transactions since his appointment to the federal court in 1967. Haynsworth previously disclosed his current stock holdings. Bayh's administrative assistant, Robert Keefe, said the senator wanted to check on whether Haynsworth owned any Chesapeake Ohio Railroad stock at the time that he sat on cases involving that firm. Libya Freezes Bank Accounts WASHINGTON (AP) Judge Harrison L. Winter of the 4th U.S.

Circuit Court of Appeals testified today he would have avoided a stock purchase made by his colleague, Judge Clement F. Haynsworth Jr. under the circumstances at the time. However, Winter told the Senate Judiciary Committee that Haynsworth's purchase of $16,000 worth of Brunswick Corp. Stock on Dec.

20, 1967, had not in the slightest degree impaired his belief in his fellow jurist's integrity and ability. Winter said the appellate court had decided a case in favor of Brunswick for closure of a chattel mortgage on used bowling alley equipment before Haynsworth bought the stock but the decision was sot filed publicly until Feb. 2, 1968. Winter was the first witness as the committee began a second week of hearings on President Nixon's nomination of Haynsworth, chief judge of the 4th Circuit Court, to fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court. Sen.

Philip A. Hart, asked Winter if he would have regarded it as proper to purchase Brunswick stock before the decision in the case involving the company was publicly announced. "I think if I'd been in that situation," Winter replied, "I'd have avoided buying the stock until after the opinion had been filed and the matter disposed of." Gov. Brewer says he was unable to present Ms anti-busing case to President Nixon. Page 11.
