WASHINGTON (AP) President Nixon has told congressional leaders that his fiscal 1974 budget will total $268.7 billion, an increase of about $19 billion over spending for the current fiscal year which ends June 30.

The budget goes to Congress Monday. Mansfield said the new budget would carry a deficit of about $12 billion, less than half of the current projected red-ink total of $25 billion.

Dunn Gives Outline History OfCodorus Creek Hassle BY AL SCHWARTZ Staff Reporter Reed Dunn, executive director of the York County Planning Commission, presented a fresh but technical review of the Codorus Creek wastewater management controversy to a Hanover audience Friday. Dunn, speaking at a Hanover Area Chamber of Commerce governmental affairs committee luncheon at the Heritage Barn, reviewed the Codorus study and the Army Corps of four recommendations for im- ulementation of the project. One of the recommendations an all-land spray irrigation idea has drawn virtually unanimous opposition throughout York County. Dunn traced the study from its genesis at a public hearing in the York County Courthouse in July of 1971, to the present time when York Countians, especially those in the townships to be most affected by the watershed project, await the Corps of Engineers choice of plans to handle the wastewater treatment At no time did he give any indication which way the planning commission leans.

Dunn then traced the progress of the study which has now reached a turn in the road where one of four recommendations before the Corps of Army Engineers must be chosen a plan to meet current standards, eater plan, the basic all-land plan (one which has stirred growing controversy in this area) and the December plan. The plan to meet current standards, Dunn explained, provides for upgrading and expansion of existing wastewater treatment plans necessary to achieve the current performance criteria established by the commonwealth for Codorus Creek Basin The basic all-water plan stipulates for advanced process treatment of all municipal wastewater generated in the study area. Under this plan three advanced process treatment plants would be constructed in addition to the expansion and upgrading of existing plants and only 87 acres of land would be required for the new plants and associated facilities. THE BASIC all-land plan, the one which was created mounting opposition, would provide for treatment of all municipal wastewater generated in the study area by spray irrigation. Before application to the ground, Dunn pointed out, the wastewater would receive secondary treatment either through existing treatment plans or aerated lagoons.

The water w'ould then be applied to the ground at a rate of two inches per week. The plan, Dunn said, would require approximately 16,950 acres, meaning the relocation of 330 residences and 200 farmsteads. Dunn also pointed out that if the basic all-land plan would get successful recommendation and were it implemented it would require about 2,400 acres of Penn Twp. and Hanover. a chunk of real he noted.

(AP) Americans who have waited to see Vietnam prisoners of war return to home soil may not see much when it actually happens. Military officials who have been preparing for months said Friday they plan to keep the public, newsmen and photographers at a distance from the freed war prisoners who will be brought here.

En route from Vietnam to one of 31 military hospitals near their homes, the POWs will stop at this sprawling air base 50 miles northeast of San FYancisco for varying lengths of time. The first are expected within two weeks. Newsmen were shown Friday how the POWs will be taken from the giant C141 medical evacuation jets that will bring them home from Communist captivity.

Naval Hospital in South Philadelphia and Patterson Army Hospital in Monmouth, N.J., have been designated sites for the special planned by the State and Defense departments. The protocols cover the release of prisoners, the operation of the four-nation control commission of Canada, Indonesia, Poland and Hungary and the operation of the temporary Joint Military Commission to be set up by the four parties to the agreements. The documents set aside for Rogers and Trinh were three protocols plus a fourth covering U.S. removal of American mines dropped in North Vietnamese waters. The only difference in the documents in the morning and afternoon session is in the preamble and the designation of the signatories.

The agreement signed by all four parties refers only to parties participating in the Paris conference on The U.S.-North Vietnamese documents formally designate the four parties by name, including the Republic of Vietnam, meaning South Vietnam, and the provisional revolutionary government, meaning the Viet Cong. This complex procedure was a compromise avoiding any mutual recognition by the two rival South Vietnamese governments. The signing ends for the United States a war that saw its first soldier killed in action in Since then 45,931 Americans have died in action and 303,605 have been wounded. Rogers met for an hour in the morning with French President Georges Pompidou to express President appreciation for help in concluding the Vietnam peace agreement. France has hosted Vietnam peace talks since May 1968.

Woman Escapes Assailant A 21-year-old Hanover woman today was resting at her home after a terrifying experience Friday night, climaxed by a split-second escape from a knife-wielding assailant. The woman, whose identity has been withheld by police, left her place of employment at a local factory about 10:30 p.m. and when she got into her car was confronted by a man lying in the back of the vehicle. Flashing a knife, the man told the woman to start the car and follow his directions. The woman was told to drive north on Broadway and as she approached an intersection she noticed a car waiting to pull out.

Out of sheer desperation, police said, the woman drove in front of the other car, jammed the brakes and threw her assailant, still in the back seat, off balance. The woman leaped from the car and her assailant made a grab for her but missed, police said they were told. Hysterical, the woman ran to the other motorist for aid. At the same moment the man leaped from her car and fled on foot. Marathon Dance Of Planned STATE COLLEGE, Pa.
