Revised Technique Peterson Still Seeks Tax Reform CONCORD, N.H. (AP) -Gov. Walter Peterson has revised his technique for seeking approval of his income tax program as well as changing the program itself. "We don't want to rush in with a proposal and say take it or leave it," said Daniel Hoik, a Peterson aide, Monday. "The last time, the governor felt it was important to present it to the legislature first." The last time--during the regular legislative session ear- lier this year, Peterson's 3 per cent income tax package was resoundingly defeated in the 400-seat House which traditionally has rejected proposals for a general sales or income tax in this, the only state with neither.

are a lot more flexible than we were, or than we appeared, then," Hoik said. "We really want something to happen." "We are not going to go rolling in with it until we confer with a lot of people," Hoike said. "We're willing to play pull and tug with it." The governor's staff presently is using a computer to test various plans, and the percentage mentioned has ranged from 2 per cent to 2Vz per cent with various forms oi exemptions, mostly in the range of $5,000 for a family of four. The percentage figure is far from settled and may wind up at the 3 per cent mark again. No final decision is expected until January, and the special legislative session probably will begin during the latter part of January if Peterson can call it while the lawmakers technically are in recess.

An advisory opinion from the attorney general on this issue is pending.

A copy of an "underground" newspaper in Portsmouth, The Strawberry Grenade, a brought to the Council floor by Councilman Edmund Scarponi. Scarponi suggested the city attorney i i a the publication, known for its strong views and stronger language, to "see somehow if we can't put a stop to this publication." Scarponi said he was "very upset" and "embarrassed" by the publication, which he said called local policemen and was otherwise "obscene. He said he felt it was the responsibility of the Council to "do something" about the publication.

Councilman William F. Keefe said he agreed with Scarponi on the assessment of the paper, but said he believed the city marshal has powers to do some- no part of this' stop the paper. "We may not like what they say, but they have a right to say it," McEachern said. He pointed out he didn't at all like what the Grenade called him, but defended-its it. McEachern said if any statements were libelous, then there are adequate laws of libel to deal with that.

Sea. Daniel K. Inouye of Hawaii, an American of Japanese descent who was decorated for in Europe during World War II, speaks at sunset memorial services being held at the white memorial constructed atop the sunken battle- ship Arizona.

The Arizona is a watery tomb for the 1,102 men who were trapped in the battlewagon when she went to the bottom.

Parts of the ship can still be seen below the surface of the clear water and occasionally oil from the Arizona bubbles to the surface. The start of another memorial is also scheduled today.

Oil Barge Under Tow By Active PORTLAND Two crewmen aboard a drifting oil barge carrying 210,000 gallons of fuel are safe.

The Coast Guard managed to prevent the barge from breaking up on the rocky Maine coast and spilling thousands of gallons of oil into the sea. The tow line to the barge snapped in five-foot seas last nigh', and the vessel began drifting northerly in 30-knot winds. The crewmen were aboard the barge when the line snapped some 12 miles from shore. This morning the Coast Guard Cutter Active, out of New Castle, had the barge in tow and was scheduled to take it to Portland Light Ship. The Moran Towing Co.

was to pick up the barge at the Light Ship at noon and bring it into Portland, according to the coast guard here. The Coast Guard in Boston said the 250-foot oil barge was intercepted by the Active about eight miles out to sea, where the barge had been adrift for several hours. The fuel oil is for the USS Dale at Bath, according to the Coast Guard. Christmas 'Countdown 4 118 more shopping days 3 more mailing days lor local packages and out-of-town caros fc.
