Expect Litton Boss To Head Hoover-Type Unit Continued from Page One McCracken said the fate of the surtax would depend on budget situation next year. Nixon said he wouldn't comment until after taking office on the possibility of convening a new international monetary conference to deal with currency and balance of payments wees that have afflicted the Western world. He said that to talk about that now "might precipitate worse crisis." McCracken cited inflation and global monetary problems as tiie major economic problems to be dealt with by the new admin- Doll Contest Winners Told Prize winners in the Christmas dress-a-doll contest conducted by the Gogebic National Bank of Ironwood were announced today.

Route Name Is Changed The route designation of 35 between Mass and Baraga will be changed in January, the State Highway Commission announced Tuesday. The portion of M-35 between Baraga and the junction of 26 near Mass will be listed as M38, a new number. The 35 designation will be eliminated along that oortion of the route between Negaunee and US-45. That part of the route will retain its US-41 and M28 designations. istration.

He labeled these "important imbalances and distortions" which he" said Nixon would inherit from the Johnson administration. During the campaign, Nixon often suggested tax incentives to private enterprise as an alternative to direct federal subsidies in dealing with domestic social problems such as poverty and slum problems. Asked for comment, McCracken said, "I don't take a doctrinaire approach either for or against tax incentives." Nixon is expected to name California industrialist Roy Ash, president of Litton Industries, to bead a new Hoover-type commission to recommend a broad reorganization of the federal government. Ash, president of Litton Industries, seemed to be Nixon's choice to direct "a searching, fundamental reappraisal of our whole structure of government." Even before receiving the Republican ipresidential nomination last August, Nixon said "one of the first tasks of the next president should be to set in motion" such a study, reminiscent of those conducted during the administration of former President Harry S. Truman by another former chief executive, Herbert Hoover.

In his prenomination statement, Nixon said the new group should have an even broader mandate than the one Truman gave Hoover. He said of the proposed new commission: "It would be charged with searching out every feasible means of decentralizing government, of getting it closer to the people, of transferring functions state and local governments, of creating new instrumentalities where appropriate to involve people at the community evel directly in the decisions hat affect theii own lives." He sad the group would represent the best of talent from he academic world. Ash, a 50-year-old native of Los Angeles and a financial sup- jorter of the Nixon campaign, las been with Litton since 1953, seeing it grow from a specialized electronics firm into a vast conglomerate enterprise. He las been president since 1961. Sarlier Ash was chief financial officer of Hughes Aircraft On Tuesday, Nixon announced second-tier appointments to his White House staff--one of the assignments going to a veteran assistant to Sen.

Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, a former Democrat who was an important and controversial Nixon supporter in the South. Named to the jobs of deputy counsel to the President-elect were Harry S. Dent, 38, of Columbia, S.C., who was GOP state chairman in his native state, and John P. Sears, 28, of iTalls Church, an employe of Nixon's former law firm and campaign liaison man between ftxon and Vice President-elect Spiro T. Agnew.

Both Dent and Sears will work under John D. Ehrlichman, newly named counsel to the President-elect. It was said they would perform general assignments. Appointed by Nixon to be a deputy assistant for congressional relations was William E. Timmons, 37, of Chattanooga, administrative assistant to Bill Brock, and director of congressional relations for the Nixon campaign.

He will work under President Assistant Bryce N. Harlow, representing the interests of the new administration among House members. ST. PAUL LIVESTOCK SOUTH ST. PAUL, Minn.

Mack, Ironwood. announced this morning that $75,000 has been released by the Michigan Natural Resource? Commission for construction of a fish ladder over Presque Isle Falls in Go- gibic County.

The falls are located near Lake Superior and have proved to be a potent obstacle, preventing steelhead trout and coho salmon from ascending the Big Presque Isle River to spawn. Senator Mack said, "In my judgement, the ladder can be built and natural obstacles overcome in time for next fall's spawning run." Area sportsmen have advocated the project, along with Senator Mack, after fisheries surveys showed the Big, Presque Isle River to have great potential as a spawning grounds for steelhead and coho, provided a successful ladder could be constructed over the falls. Some conservationists objected tohe ladder on the gounds that it might mar the natural scenic beauty of the site. Interested people on both sides recognized that the ladder would very likely prove an outstanding tourist attraction when large numbers of fish were making their spawning runs out of Lake Superior. U.S.

Seeking Cease-Fire? Continued from Page One munists in the South does not provide a basis for an effective cease-fire agreement. However, they do consider a cease-fire arrangement as practical if it is mad the first step of a plan for withdrawal of all foreign forces from South Vietnam. The United States, therefore, could make an early proposal for a troop withdrawal agreement with North Vietnam which could embrace a cease- fire arrangement. According to the U.S. view of the new phase of the Paris talks, the meetings are to be between two sides--with the U.S.

and South Vietnam on one side and North Vietnam and tlie NLF on the other. The North Vietnamese and NLF claim, however, that the talks are to be four-party discussions which, in their view, would give the NLF equal status with the Saigon delegation. Wrangling over this issue could tie up the opening weeks of the new phase to such a degree that very little may be accomplished before President-elect Richard Nixon takes office.

In Miami, Miss Guntin told a news conference today the hijacker identified himself as Eddie Canteras, a 33-year-old native of Havana. The gunman said that in Havana, "He had bis mother to look forward to. His mother was there, and she didn't want to come to the United States," the stewardess said. "He said he didn't care if they killed him," he still wanted to go back, she said. The big jet--substituted earlier in the day for a scheduled DCS flight from New York to Miami via Tampa--was seized while making its landing approach at Miami.

-The hijacker forced stewardesses to open the cockpit door and took commandj "The door flew open and he said he wanted to go to Havana," Capt. James W. Sims told newsmen. The pilot said he persuaded the gunman he needed more fuel, and got his permission to stop at Key West- only 90 miles from the Cuban coast. "He wasn't very happy about it, but we pointed to the gauges and tried to explain," Sims said.

At Key efforts were set in motion quickly to obtain jet fuel from a nerby Navy air station. Federal, city and county officers stood by--under orders not to intervene--as the plane and its impatient hijacker sat alone on the end of a runway. During the wait, Miss Guntin said, the gunman was "shaking and sweating. He held a gun right here on my neck and the grenade on my shoulder all the time we were in Key West." No one attempted to board the A National Airlines spokesman said, "As long as the ship is under the control of a hijacker with a lethal weapon, we automatically stay away." In Havana, Sims said, troops met the airliner and escorted the hijacker off the plane. "Two guys came aboard and took his gun," said Stewardess Mirta Fonollar.

Israel Unlikely To Accept Plan Continued from Page One was a key factor that led to the six-day war.

6. An East-West agreement to restrict arms supplies to the Middle East contenders. 7. Signatures of the two main parties on a peace treaty. Nasser's government has refused to contemplate a peace treaty with Israel.

The informants said Secretary of State Dean Rusk presumably discussed the plan with the Israeli and Egyptian foreign ministers, Abba Eban and Mahmoud Riad, at meetings in New York Nov. 3. The Americans have been trying to rally support for the plan from several major powers, including the Soviet Union, India and Britain, the informants said. Israeli reaction was not reported. But based on past Israeli pronouncements, the Jerusalem government likely would be cool to any proposition beginning with a surrender of the occupied territory.

Egypt was said to be skeptical. The sources said Egyptian leaders advised friendly governments they find it difficult to reconcile the U.S. peace program with President Johnson's decision last month to sell the Israelis Phantom jet fighter planes. The informants said the American proposal probably was discussed by Nasser aides and Robert Anderson who visited Cairo last month on a mission for President Johnson They added the plan also might be discussed when former Gov William Scranton, another high-level Nixon emissary, visits key Middle East capitals soon.
