CD 3 Nearly 2,000 In County Missing Welfare Checks By PAUL REICH ART Close to 2,000 Warren County residents dependent on welfare income for their livelihood will soon be in desperate straits, according to Anthony Angelotti, director of the Warren County Board of Assistance office at 117 Market st. "The public assistance checks were due July 3, but none of the 885 local recipients received checks" Angelotti said. He explained the 885 cases, which includes all nursing home residents currently on the welfare rolls, involve 1,936 persons. Payment of welfare and state salary checks stopped all across the state shortly before the Independence Day holiday when state legislators failed to support a new budget and closed up shop for the long weekend. The state lost its power to spend money at midnight Friday when the 1971 72 budget expired.

The state has been unable to write some $38,000 in daily welfare checks many of which were scheduled to go to flood victims. "The situation is getting very bad," Angelotti explained. "We've received a lot of requests from people that say they have no money and no food and there's nothing we can do." He pointed out that food coupons, used by many welfare recipients, are based on real income. "They need money to get coupons." A public assistance emergency fund does exist, Angelotti said, but the fund has been frozen since the budget ran out last week. The Legislature was scheduled to go into evening session Thursday in an effort to resolve the budget logjam.

3 CJ a a 75 1 a Co vf CO si to Police Seeking Car Owned By Stabbing Victim State police continue to search for a car owned by the victim of a stabbing last Saturday, July miles west of Garland. The car is one of the slender dues to the stabbing in the neck and chest of Frank Martin, 24 of 58 Cottage Columbus. Martin remains in the Corry Memorial Hospital listed in satisfactory condition. The car has been missing nce the victim was found on Rt. 77 east of the Deerhead Inn.

It is a light blue Ford station wagon with rusted fenders and bearing a temporary plate. The victim was found by a passerby. Police estimate there was a two hour time lapse from the time Martin was last seen until he was found bleeding, lying on the road. Cpl. William Kattner of the Warren substation is heading the investigation.

He said the search for the car could be a long one, since the vehicle may have been driven into a wooded area and would be difficult to spot from the road. While the search for the missing vehicle proceeds, Cpl. Kattner is trying to jog the victim's memory for even the slightest clue. So far, he has not been able to establish a motive for the attack.

Subsequently, Moscow's Tass news agency said "all demands of the Soviet delegation have been satisfied." It was announced that the first game would be played Tuesday.

Fischer, the American challenger, and Spassky, the Soviet world champion, met Thursday night to draw for the first move in the $300,000 series of 24 games. Fischer drew the black pawn, giving Spassky the first move with white and a slight advantage. The draw was done the same way park bench chess players would do it. Spassky took two pawns, one white, one black, juggled them behind his back then extended his closed hands to Fischer. Without hesitation, Fischer hunched forward and pointed a finger to Spassky's right hand.

SAVE NOW ON YOUR 1973 FASHION Air Ticket Tax Causing Uproar Deaths SAN FRANCISCO (AP) The FBI agent who ordered his men to rush a captive jetliner, an order that resulted in the deaths of two hijackers and a passenger, said Thursday he hopes "it will be a lesson" to future hijackers. The airline's president supported the FBI's action but said he was upset that the passenger had been killed and two other passengers wounded. "The FBI had a well thought out plan and it is obvious to me that it would have succeeded except for the one hijacker going berserk," said J. Floyd Andrews, president of Pacific Southwest Airlines.

Meanwhile, one passenger complained of lack of security measures at the airport where the flight began, although the airline said security measures were taken. FBI agent in charge Robert Gebhardt, who is described by the the FBI in San Francisco as having made the decision to rush the plane, said: "I hope this will be a lesson. We intended to stop this hijack, and stop it we did." After failing in six hours of negotiations to win release of 81 passengers and a crew of five, FBI agents stormed the plane Wednesday and opened fire on a hijacker who had been holding a gun at the pilot's head in the cockpit. The hijacker in the rear of the plane began firing wildly, wounding two passengers and killing another before he was shot dead by agents, the FBI said. The hijackers were described Thursday as two Bulgarian natives.

They had demanded $800,000 ransom and wanted to be taken to Siberia. The two were identified as Dimitr K. Alexiev and Michael D. Azmanoff. Both were 28 and had bleached their dark hair blond.

Immigration authorities in San Francisco said both es caped across the Iron Curtain in 1968 and had been living in California, The dead passenger was Ca nadian Stanley Carter, 66, a re tired railroad conductor DOWVSTJLWRS at perhaps $27,500 each. In his letter to Spassky, who demanded a written apology for Fischer conduct before he would sit down at the chess board, the American champion called his attempt to grab a share of the gate as "my petty dispute over money." Nevertheless, he took issue with a demand by the Soviet Chess Federation that he be penalized with the loss of the first game for his tardy arrival. "If this forfeit demand were respected," Fischer wrote, "it would place me at a tremendous handicap." Described Wednesday as being "very upset" by the tangled prelude to the match, Spassky appeared calm and fit Thursday as he played his daily round of tennis. Fischer remained out of view at one of the hideaways provided him by the organizers.

More prize money was donated, but Spassky then demanded a written apology for Fischer's conduct before the champion would play. In his letter to Spassky, Fischer called his attempt to grab a share of gate receipts "my petty dispute over money," and asked the Russian to accept his "sincerest apology." Harry Golombek, an official ation FIDE announced that both players had agreed to begin play on Tuesday.

Hie brief ceremony Thursday night was the first face to face meeting between the two contenders in the pre game preparations. Like everything else it started late. Fischer showed up 22 minutes late.

He decided to come arriving Tuesday only after British fin revised version which became effective Thursday advises the passenger that if he fails to pay the Philadelphia tax he is subject to a fine of $100 to $300 or 30 to 90 days in jail.

"Let's face it," the Allegheny spokesman said. "The airlines don't want to collect this damn tax. It's costing us money and our people are taking all kinds of abuse. The people resent the payment ana tne tirst person they can take it out on is the ticket agent. "Our man in Philadelphia tells me that there have been some very ugly scenes there over the tax," the official added.

"As for cost, we have had to double our ticket counter staffs in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh to handle the situation. A customer comes up to buy a ticket, we have to tell him about the tax, he gets mad or decides to fill out the card and that backs up the lines. "We are permitted to keep two per cent of the taxes col lected, but that would hardly pay for the extra people we have to put on," the airlines spokesman said.

After calling police he went back and found the car gone, Gilson stated. Hie Bear Lake man went to Corry Memorial Hospital where he was treated for injuries to the left leg and back and released.

The two airlines flying to Philadelphia from Greater Pittsburgh International AirportTWA and Allegheny say they have been collecting the tax as customers purchase their tickets at tne local terminal. "If you're just flying to Philadelphia we're supposed to collect $2 from you, but if it's a round trip, then we ask for $4," said a spokesman for Allegheny Airlines Thursday. Philadelphia was among several American cities to enact such a tax on the use of its airport, but most charge only a departure fee.

Philadelphia demands an arrival and departure fee of $2 each way. "There's really nothing we can do," said the Allegheny spokesman. "The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld that the tax is legal and we are bound to ask our customers to pay it." However, he said, the airlines could not force the customers to pay the Philadelphia tax nor could it keep passengers from boarding if they fail to pay the tax. "All we do is ask them to fill out card, stating that they do not msh to pay the tax," the official said.
