Liquor Prices To Increase HARRISBURG (UPI) -Beginning Wednesday, Pennsylvanians will be paying more for most liquor purchases while sometimes receiving less as the state Liquor Control Board launches another round of price hikes.

Along with the increases, the LCB will reduce the size, proof and age of certain items. LCB chairman Henry B. Kaplan said the increases were "simply a matter of inflation hitting the liquor industry with the same impact as the food, auto and other industries." The LCB said the hikes were approved only "where suppliers provided affidavits declaring that only actual cost increases were covered." Suppliers profits will remain the same, but LCB profits will approximately double. As an example, Canadian Club, a popular brand of whiskey which is among 350 state store items going up this week, will increase from to per fifth. That figure includes a 48 per cent mark up, a six per cent sales tax and an 18 per cent lax which went into effect in 1936 as a 10 per cent tax to raise a temporary relief fund for flood schools.

The whole sale price for Canadian Club rose from $4.16 to $4.33, approximately half the retail mark up. FUNERALS Frederkk Ehrhorn Services for Frederick W. Ehrhorn, husband of Evelyn D.

Congress May Sit On Vetoes Invite Public To Debate Republicans will boM a "Meet WASHINGTON (UPI) Congress may decide to sit on one of President Ford's vetoes to make sure he keeps a promise to postpone additional increases in oil import fees. In January, Ford announced a $3 increase in oil import fees, a step taken to increase the price estimated 10 to 15 cents at the gasoline pump and conserve energy. The first $1 increase took effect Feb. 1 and the other two were to go into effect on March 1 and April 1.

Congress passed a 90-day delay on his increases and Ford vetoed it. With the results of a vote to sustain the veto uncertain, Ford promised to delay for 60 days $2 of the increase and to delay for 30 days his intention to lift controls on the price of "old oil." The vote on the veto is set for Tuesday. Instead of a vote, Rep. Al Ullman, D-Ore, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, plans to offer a motion to refer the measure to his committee for 60 days make sure Ford keeps his promise. There is no time limit on congressional response to a veto.

There may be a battle. House Republicans, charging that to do so would be like holding a sword of Damocles over the President, insisted on a vote now or a promise never tp vote on the override. 4 Field Fires Sunday County fire companies investigated four calls yesterday afternoon which turned out to be field fires. Annville's Union Hose and Rescue fire companies investigated two field fires: one at the residence of Richard Eshleman, 331 W. Sheridan Annville, and one at the Lee R.

Folk residence, 1402 Center Annville. A half-acre of field burned on Eshleman's property, apparently caused by sparks from a trash fire. Details on the field fire at 1402 Cedar St. were not immediately available. About 30 men from both companies were reportedly on each call, which lasted 30 minutes each.

The Ono Fire Co. was dispatched to a fire along Yorty's Bridge Road, behind the O'Yes Hotel, Ono, which had apparently been started by a tossed cigarette, according to Assistant Chief Darryl Emrich. A 12-by-12 foot area of grass burned, and 12 firemen were on the call for less than 20 minutes. A quarter-acre of open field in the Fredericksburg RD 1 area, on Mill Road just east of Route 343, burned, according to Chief Lee Rentschler, Fredericksburg Fire Co. The fire was apparently spread by a trash fire at a nearby residence.

Rentschler reported eight men on the call for seven minutes. Other action on the economy may come if the $21 billion tax cut bill clears the Senate Finance Committee as expected by the end of the week. The measure, passed by the House to offer rebates to low-income persons this year and reduced taxes next year still has a long row to hoe. Senate Finance faces a variety of taxing alternatives within the Democrats, the majority party. Even if it reports a bill, there may be a floor battle over ending the oil depletion allowance.

The House ended the controversial $2 billion loophole for oil companies in its version of the measure. Senate 'Democratic leader Mike Mansfield said "we are in difficulty with the House that passed the depletion allowance In an effort to reach a compromise, Sens. Edward Kennedy, and Ernest Boilings, plan an amendment to end depletions on foreign produced oil and phase out domestic oil produced by small companies over a ive-year period. The Senate plans a two-week recess beginning March 21. Unless the tax-cut bill is nearing completion by that time the recess will not be delayed or canceled.

Thus, a tax-cut bill may not be sent to the White House before mid- April. 13 Guilty Pleas To Be Given About 13 guilty pleas were scheduled to be entered before Judge G.
