While we recognie differing views of this question among Americans in general, and in our own party, we affirm our support of a constitutional amendment to restore protection of the right to life for unborn children. We also support the Congressional efforts to restrict the use of taxpayers' dollars for abortion.

protest he Supreme 'V SACRAMENTO (AP) Environmental interests won a major victory Tuesday when the Assembly's money committee killed by one vote a bill that would have repealed the state's strict new pesticide regulations. The grower-backed bill, SB1404 by Sen. Ken Maddy, Fresno, was defeated 10-11 in the Ways and Means Committee. The measure's target was the Brown administration's new pesticide regulations, which are tougher than federal rules. Restrictions on new pesticides pro posed for use in California are already in effect, but new permit requirements for farmers don't take effect until next year.

Under the regulations, new pesticides would be subject to health and environmental tests tougher than federal standards. They also require manufacturers to disclose all known hazards, set new requirements for permits and supervision, and require use of non-chemical methods where they I AP wirephoto President Carter holds news conference in Detroit following talks with auto industry officials and union leaders.

The Senate-passed bill won the approval of the Assembly Agriculture Committee, and at Maddy's request, was sent straight to Ways and Means, bypassing the Resources, Land Use and Energy Committee.

Speaker Leo McCarthy of San Francisco had ordered the bill sent to Resources, where it faced a probable tough fight from environmentalists. An aide to Maddy said he had no plans to seek another vote in Ways and Means. President at services for Ohira TOKYO (AP) President Carter and representatives of more than 100 other nations attended a memorial service today for Prime Minister Masayoshi Ohira. who Carter said "will be sorely missed." It was the biggest diplomatic gathering in Japan since World War II and possibly the largest assemblage of foreign dignitaries in the country's history. More than 6.500 Japanese and foreign dignitaries attended the one hour memorial service at the Budokan.

Also among his listeners were Chinese Premier Hua Guofene. President Ziaur Rahman of Bangladesh and five other prime ministers.

Carter in a statement on his arrival at Haneda Airport said. "1 would be effective. Maddy bill would have blocked those rules and guarantee that the pro-farmer Food and Agriculture Department, not the environmental-minded Resources Agency, would supervise pesticide regu lation. "This (bill) takes farmers out from under having two directors, two departments, to monitor their activities," Maddy told committee members. "The agricultural community sees no necessity to have both directors looking down their throats." Norman Hill of the Resources Agency said Maddy's bill was unnecessary because the new regulations have already been certified by Resources Secretary Hues-Johnson and "are now under complete control of the Food and Aeri- Pope John Paul promises to aid Brazilian lepers BELEM, Brazil (AP) Pope John Paul II vow ed Tuesday to do everything in his power for Brazil's multitude of lepers, thus fueling church-state controversy over the government proposed extinction of leper colonies.

Regulatory changes that would save the industry $500 million in complying with federal antipollution standards. Other possible regulatory chances also will be considered. A program to provide at least $5) million next year to communities and firms hit by the auto industry slowdown. The money already is in the proposed 1981 budget.

Loan guarantees totalling beween $200 million and $400 million from the Small Business Administration to help auto dealers obtain needed cash for such things as financing their inventories of unsold automobiles. This would not involve any near-term additional expense by the government. A speed-up of Treasury Department consideration of changes in tax laws to allow automakers to take more rapid deductions from their taxes for depreciation of plant and equipment. Carter also said that his administration may later provide special tax relief for the auto industry. Carter said the changes in antipollution and other regulations "would not in any way violate our commitment" to cleaner air standards or auto fuel efficiency.

He described his plan as designed to help assist the auto industry through a difficult "transi- (Continued from A l) deal with the problems of the industry on a continuing basis." "I have great hope and expectations" that the domestic auto industry will eventually return to good health. Carter said. The president met for just over a half hour with auto industry and union leaders at the airport terminal and then announced his new program to the press. Within minutes, Carter was airborne again aboard Air Force One on a 15-hour flight to Tokyo where he will attend a memorial service for Masayoshi Ohira. the Japanese prime minister who died last month.

While Garter said his administration had "literally been working day and night" on its plan. Bill Brock, the chairman of the Republican national committee, said Carter "brought an empty platter to Detroit and tried to make something out of it." "A brief conference with auto executives and labor leaders is a sorry response to the problems of this industry," Brock said at a news conference. Carter's plan includes: An expedited hearing on a complaint by the United Auto Workers union that the U.S. industry is being hurt by imports of foreign cars, which accounted for about 27 percent of all cars sold in tion period" from large to small autos. He said that production of U.S.-made small fuel efficient autos should increase from 1.5 million this year to 7.5 million by 1983.

Fraser said Carter's plan is "a good first step." Thomas A. Murphy, chairman of General Motors, called it "an important first step. Philip Caldwell, president of the Ford Motor said that "the greatest lesson we can learn from the Japanese is to have government, industry and labor working together to solve our problems." Carter announced he planned to tour, within coming weeks. U.S. auto plants which manufacture small fuel-efficient autos.

That was welcomed by Caldwell, who said, "I think it's time for Americans to be proud of products built in America by Americans, and I think it's appropriate for the president to lead the parade." Also at the meeting were the top executives of American Motors, Chrysler and Volkswagen of America, plus other UAW leaders. If the U.S. International Trade Commission, which is processing the UAW complaint against foreign auto imports, recommends that action should be taken to stem imports, that would put pressure on Carter. The commission's ruling now could come in August or September, and Carter would have to respond within B0 days after that. have come to Japan to convey my personal condolences to Mrs.

"I beg you not to do it." The Kennedy delegates argued the rule would prohibit delegates from exercising any choice in their vote on the presidential nomination and would turn the convention into an assembly of robots. But Don Fowler.

Carter's floor leader in the rules fight, said the Kennedy objections were purely political. "No one raised the question until it was clear who was winning and who was losing the fight for the Democratic nomination for the presidency," Fowler said. Fowler argued that binding delegates to the candidates was only fair to the 20 million Democrats who participated in primaries and caucuses. but Carter appeared to have sufficient delegate support to assure that acceptance. The final vote came at the end of a day in which Carter supporters overw helmed Kennedy forces on a number of issues.

In one earlier vote, the committee rejected a motion by former Rep. James O'Hara. hich would have kept the 197(i rules essentially intact for this year. O'Hara said a minority report ould he prepared and he would take the issue to the convention floor. Tuesday's committee debate was long and harsh, eclipsing the more polite, if equally deepseated, disagreements at the platform committee meetings last month.

Mayor Dianne F'einstein of San Francisco, a Carter delegate, said at one point the party was tearing itself beyond repair in the strife between Carter and Kennedy By DON McLEOD Political Writer WASHINGTON (AP) President Carter won a bitter preliminary fight Tuesday to force loyalty from his delegates to the Democratic National Convention, but the issue still appeared certain to create a brawl on the convention floor. Voting by a show of hands, the party's rules committee adopted a package of convention rules including a provision that would allow removal of any delegate who fails to stand by the presidential candidate he was elected to support. It was a setback for Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, who opposes Carter for the party's presidential nomination and who cannot succeed unless he converts some of Carter's delegates to the Aug.

IIP HOMES THAT Wait for taxi proves costly erships out of a $500 million fund reserved for businesses owned by women, minority and handicapped people. Dietsch said The Labor Department, using funds left over from its 1980 budget, has been given approval to launch experimental programs in 15 cities four of them in areas of high auto industry unemployment. The programs are designed to find out how best to help laid off factory workers find other jobs.

The department had proposed last year that such a program start up in B'81, but Carter's budget managers rejected it during their spring drive to cut spending and balance the budget. The department has since found a way to run the program without seeking additional money. Carter also announced changes in regulations that would save the industry hundreds of millions of dollars in compliance costs. The regulatory agencies said plans to change some of those rules already were under review however. Carter said the Occupational Safety and Health Administration had agreed to a less costly approach for the industry to protect auto workers from toxic lead and arsenic exposure, and that the Environmental Protection Agency would ask Congress to relax a more stringent air pollution rule affecting cars at high altitudes.

Leroy Resnick, an OSHA official, said the industry had applied for changes in the arsenic and lead standards in the fall of 1978. He said the agency's actions were unaffected by the president's recent efforts to put together an industry aid package. Relaxation of the EPA emissions rule, which was to go into effect in tho fall of would save the industry around $500 million. EPA spokesman Gary Fields said while the agency already had been studying such a change. Carter's decision to offer an auto-aid package had "expedited" the review Carter also called for a speed-up of two on going investigations: an International Trade Commission probe of union charges that imports are hurting the domestic auto industry, and a Treasury Department review of a proposal to let automakers take more rapid tax deductions for depreciation of their plants and equipment.

The tax change could save the industry almost $700 million, according to some estimates. WASHINGTON AP' The Carter administrations aid package for the auto industry was forged from spending programs and regulatory relief proposals already in the works, interviews with government officials revealed Tuesday. "At the outset, the guiding principle was that the industry aid plan would not increase total li'Hl ouilavs. although there could be some redistribution of funds." said one administration official involved in assembling the package. "The president was firm about not flip flopping on the spending side." said the official, who did not want to lie named.

Treasury Secretary G. William Miller conceded that the package "tails for no new program money." lie said the administration is focusing "existing resourc es" on the ailing industry. However. Miller said the package included a number of regulatory changes benefiting the industry that "would not have happened" had the administration noi acknowledged industry pleas for urgent help. President Carter's plan, announced in Detroit on Tuesday, would provide at least $50 million in federal funds 1o aid communities and businesses hurt by the auto industry slump.

$200 million to $400 million in loan guarantees to help auto dealers finance their inventories of unsold cars, and $10 million or more to help retrain laid off auto workers and other factory workers for other jobs. Money to finance these programs already is in Carter's Hiiil proposed budget, and much of it would have been earmarked for the auto industry it hout a special aid package because of its severe downturn, officials said. Aid for depressed towns and companies dependent on the auto industry would come out of the Commerce Department's Feonomic Development Administration budget, whic provides business loans and community development giants. The loan guarantees to auto dealers would come from a $.15 billion program operated by the Small Buiness Administration, which suggested to field managers throe weeks ago that car dealers be given priority on loans. "No new money is involv ed," said SBA spokesman Robert Dietsch.

The SBA also would provide $12 million in direct, low interest loans to minority-owned deal first.
