The new way of life also meant increased buying due to affluence, Dr. Probe Slated Into Credit Card Impact divorce rate.

Dr. Frances Cottington said in a recent report that the building of luxury hotels and the influx of visitors changed the traditionally farm-oriented lives of the local population. Farm wives hiring out as waitresses and maids at the hotels can make up to $1,000 a month in salary and tips, she said, while their husbands make only half that back on the farm. "Husbands frequently become suspicious of their wives' improved grooming and dress and accuse them of interest in other men," Dr. Cottington said.

The stresses in the new way of life also cause ulcers in the women, she said. She said the divorce rate on the island of Hawaii increased 180 per cent since 1963, compared to a 52 per cent increase for the state as a whole. Cottington said. "Finance loan companies opened offices locally and many couples overspent to the point of having wages garnished." The traditional family structure with the man as boss and the woman staying home with the kids is changing, she said. "Many women now expect to be taken out to local bars.

and if the husbands refuse, may stop for a drink on the way home with friends." Dr. Cottington said industry must assume some of the responsibility of preventing further social deterioration. She urged psychiatric counseling provided by hotels to heir) the farm people cope with changes brought by tourists, and preventive measures such as help with budgeting and family attitudes before new hotel are opened. because of moves on military and diplomatic sense of impending almost vanished in attacks in the countryside to bear out intelligence that Hanoi has decided, the moment at least, any lightning thrust at Penh.

Two persons were treated a a hospital for shock after one of the blasts. Two more bombs, one containing 30 sticks of dynamite and the other 11, were discovered later in the day and were dismantled by bomb disposal experts. Police said the incidents apparently were a resurgence of terrorist bombings in the Mont. real area.

Three other bomb explosions have occurred in Montreal during the past week. Estimate Given Westmount safety director Ed Harper estimated that there have been a total of 27 bombings in the suburb since 1961 Some of Montrears wealthiest English-speaking citizens live in the district. He said many of Montreal's DO bombings were attributed to the Quebec Liberation Front, a clandestine organization with the declared aim of winning independence for the French-speaking province through violence. The five explosions damaged two homes, An office building and a vacant house. New Saint Proclaimed at Vatican VATICAN CITY (AP) A' Ifith century Spanish priest Sunday was proclaimed a saint by Pope-Paul VI, who cited him as I an example for Roman Catholic priests of modern times.

Speaking at the canonization! ceremony of the Blessed Juan de Avila in St. Peter's Basilica, the Pope said the new saint's life offered a lesson for priests living in this "deconsecrated society." lie declared the new saint warned about a thing "that some priests and student priestst today no longer understand as a duty and specific part of their ministerial qualification in the church." He defined the i qualification as the priests segregation from life to spread the gospel. The new saint was spiritual adviser to several contemporary Spanish saints, including 1St. Teresa of Avila. IWhile several thousand performs attended the canonization ceremony, about 300 Italian fol, lowers of a former French priest who calls himself Pope Clement XV demonstrated in downtown Rome.

Evins, announced Sunday. lie said a subcommittee headed by Rep. Neal Smith, D-lowa, will conduct hearings on June 8, 9, and 10. "Credit cards have ecome an accepted method of transacting business," Evins said in a statement, "and many feel that the increased use of these cards has made the availability of them an economic necessity for many small businesses." Evins said representatives of major credit-card concerns would testify and in addition there would be testimony by various federal agencies.

The hearings, he said, will examine the cost to the small businessman participating in credit card operations, the economic impact of plastic credit, merchant and consumer liability, types of plans offered, organization structure of the various plans, conditions placed on par. ticipating small businessmen, 1 problems related to lost or stollen credit cards and the extent of state regulation.

Haack, president of the New York Stock Exchange, said Sunday that White House reassurances on the course of the Indochina war probably helped spark the strong three-day market rally last week. IIaack declared last week that "the war is probably one of the single most important factors as far as the market is concerned." His comments were aired on a televisionradio news program. Referring to President Nix. on's private dinner Wednesday night with some 45 business and financial leaders, Haack said the President's "intentions to get out of Cambodia on time, and also possibly to get out of Vietnam ahead of schedule has been reflected in the marketplace." Market Rises A record rise Wednesday preceded the dinner meeting but Thursday and Friday also produced substantial advances. Asked if he thinks the war's effect on the market is psychological or business-related, Haack replied: "It is psychological, but I also think it relates to the economy, the inflation, the nonproductive use of our economy, so far as a war is concerned." Haack said "there are some strong indications that the economy might be significantly better in the next six months, assuming some of the things that are on the drawing board can come to pass." W.

Germans Know Little About NATO TUEBINGEN, Germany (AP) A public opinion institute said Sunday 52 per cent of West Germans questioned in a recent survey had no idea of what NATO was and another 17 per cent thought it was something like a chemical formula, a stomach preparation, a girl's name or a book title. The Wickert Public Opinion Institute said that of 1,068 West Germans questioned at random, only 31 per cent said NATO represented the initials of an international organization. Of these, 7 per cent correctly identified it as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The institute said the 31 per cent replied they knew what the initials stood for, but when questioned for specifics gave wrong answers. institute said the survey was conducted over the last three daysas West German newspapers and newscasts were devoting extensive coverage to the meetings in Italy of NATO foreign ministers.

Czech's Rap Signs PRAGUE (AP) The Prague city government has threatened to ban from the streets all cars that have "for sale" signs. It described them as a nuisance and an obstacle to traffic. Consumer groups such as the American Patients Association have complained that. the first time many People find out what their health insurance covers is after they receive a hospital bill. For example, said APA presi dent Theodore Cron Sunday, insttrance plans cover.

maternity care but costs resulting from prenatal or postnatal complica tions frequently are not covered. '40 Years Too Late' As for Ribicoff's proposal, Cron said "It's 40 years too late. Today the consumer has no choice among health plans. They're all about the same. They're all obsolete and irrevel.

ant to the niition's health care needs." Instead of a comparison of insurance plans, Cron said, "the Country needs national health insurance to underwrite the cost of maintaining good health." He said health insurance plans have contributed to many of the problems besetting the health services industry from shortages of physicians to a lack of change in the way health care is delivered.

The Ivy League school canceled the Nassau Hall sing, a "Beer and Steer" gala and the senior prom. A student spokesman said the money savedestimatee, at more than would be used for antiwar funds. Princeton officials also made the wearing of black robes optional. Brandeis University in Waltham, planned an "Educational Weekend" to involve parents in workshops and political action groups during commencement weekend. The seniors also voted to eliminate caps and gowns, wear peace armbands and replace the tradition.

Edwin Young announced that for the Safety Award to California WASHINGTON (AP) California was cited Sunday by the American Automobile Association for outstanding achievement in 1969 in reduction of deaths and fatalities among pedestrians. San Diego, for the second straight year, won the AAA's grand award among cities over 500,000 population. Madison, was the winner among intermediate-sized cities and Garfield Heights, Ohio, among smaller cities.

Among states, Connecticut and Kansas won awards of excellence. Ulcer Kills Whale BRISBANE, Australia (AP) An I8-foot killer whale, brought from the United States two months ago at a cost of 822,400, has died.

Young suggested students donate the rental fee $5.50 per cap and gownto a university fund for disadvantaged students.

A group called the Peace I Commencement Fund, with headquarters at Yale University, urged students to put cap and gown rental fees into political campaigns. The University of California at Berkeley announced there would be no university-wide commencement. "Because the traditional single commencement ceremony appears to be inappropriate this year," said chancellor Roger W. Heyns, "I have discussed the matter with the deans and they have agreed to consult with their students and faculty about alternative graduation events in their schools and colleges." Speeches on Vietnam Many colleges featured speakers dealing with the Vietnam war. Yale University President I Kingman Brewster speak.

At Reed College in Portland.1 only about half of the 2571 graduates showed up for commencement and some of those! who did attend handed the col- I lege president flowers in ex-1, change for their diplomas. And at Windham College in Putney, Vt. almost one-half the men in the senior class an-1 flounced they would not serve the military in the war in South-! east Asia. A statement signed' by 56 of the 131 men in the 161-1 member graduating class and read at commencement termed the war "illegal and immoral." Equipment since 1922 golCERTIFIED 411ESCO SALES IL SERVICE I I Associated Press Princeton University seniors won't gather on the steps of Nassau Hall this year to sing the old campus songs.

The graduating class at Brandeis University will listen to poetry instead of a valedictory address. University of Wisconsin students won't march in caps and gowns in the traditional procession to receive their diplomas. These are a few of the ways some colleges and universities are modifying commencement exercises because of recent campus dissent over the Indochina war and urban problems. Many Changes Planned An Associated Press spot check of almost 100 colleges in 30 states showed about one-third most on the East or West coastsplanned changes in the traditional format of commencement activities. Among the innovations: Abandonment of caps and gowns, with the money usually used to rent these items being donated to peace funds or the disadvantaged.

Seminars and speeches on the war instead of convocations. Wearing of black armbands or peace symbols on graduation robes. Elimination of Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) commissioning ceremonies as part of commencement. Almost all schools, however, with the exception of a few that closed early because of violent demonstrations, scheduled some form of graduation exercise. Others Unchanged Officials at colleges and universities in many states, including Colorado, Kansas, Washington, Michigan, Texas, Arizona, Arkansas, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, North and South Dakota, and Hawaii, reported the traditional pomp and ceremony would go unchanged.

Campus protests reignited when President Nixon sent U.S. troops into Cambodia and were stepped up after four Kent State University students were killed in a confrontation with National Guardsmen on the Ohio campus. Demonstrators also protested death of six blacks in racial rioting in Augusta, and the fatal shooting of two Negro youths on the campus of Jackson State College in Mississippi. Kent State officials announced late last week commencement exercises would be held June 13, although the school closed for the semester May 4 after the shootings.
