Citibank's cut will be effective Monday and Morgan Guaranty's on Tuesday. Earlier Friday, Ohij's largest bank, Cleveland Trust announced it would cut the prime rate from 10 per cent to I 'i per cent, effective Tuesday. The slash by the two New York banks could trigger general reduction across the country. Citibank's reduction was anticipated since both it and Chase Manhattan, New York's other giant commercial bank, have intimated in the past week that their economists believed interest rates soon would start dropping. The prime rate is that charged larger customers with the best credit ratings.

Early this year a two-tier interest system was set up at the request of the federal government under which a somewhat lower prime rate is charged smaller businesses by most banks. The fluctuations of the prime rate eventually affect all interest rates but there may be a considerable time lag before that happens and rates on some kinds of consumer loans are little affected for various reasons, partly because this business generates much of its ow 'm through monthly installment collections. yj m0 1 1 Daylight Saving May Go On Ail-Year-Round Basis cartel proves it can be done Look! No hands! How's this On Mandatory Retirement: Mr. Nader Has Some Starry New Raiders Does Ability End at Age for a switch goat ties Van chap happiness before they get back to running the mill. To a large extent Americans have bought the retirement laws without objection, and in fact with pleasure.

Those in jobs requiring little creativity, or jobs where physical stamina is necessary, look forward to retirement at least until it comes. "I can't wait to get up and just go fishin'." But there are others, probably a minority, for whom retirement is like a sentence of death. Indeed, the metaphor is not outlandish. Geriatric authorities say that when some people are forced to leave their jobs, told by society they can no longer frform, the drop-out is the irst step to the grave. Many of these forced retirees do restructure their lives, certainly, and find new interests or outlets; but many others, as anthropologist Margaret Mead says, 'are like the admiral who can't, in retirement, find a substitute for the fleet." But though the problem has been well known for years it is only recently gaining serious attention.

A number of civil libertarians, senior citizen groups and geriatric students are talking now about changing the system. "Mandatory retirement," says Dr. Eric Pfeiffer of Duke University's Medical School, "is just not very bright' More than that, says a spokesman for the American Association of Retired Persons: "It's clearly discriminatory. The 14th Amendment prohibits age discrimination. Forced retirement is outdated." The courts, however, have not agreed.

The one big case (This is another in a series of articles about America's elderly which will appear throughout 1973). By Tom Tiede WASHINGTON NEA) -Gandhi was 78 when he led the struggle for India's independence. Disraeli was prime minister of England at 76. Clemenceau was 75 when France called him during World War I. Webster was 70 when he wrote the American Dictionary of English Language.

Grandma Moses did not begin painting until she was 72, Learned Hand was on the bench at 79, and Pablo Casals, now in the ninth decade of his life, is still making music for the world. Who was it that said ability ended at 65? Probably Otto von Bismarck, who, after organizing the German Empire, established a mandatory retirement age for his countrymen. (He, by the way, was excluded; he did not leave office until 75). Bismarck, of course, oper-ated in an age when longevity meant something different than today. His gesture was entirely humanitarian.

Yet a century later, though both age and occupation have taken on new significance, the United States and much of the industrialized world still follow the Bismarck example. Sixty-five, sometimes earlier, is by law the age when workers' are told their services are no longer required. Actually, the milestone is not usually so harsh as this. Rather, an exiting employe is told that he's earned his rest." Then comes the gold watch, maybe a party and everybody wishes the old f-jf Sadar. which has been tested, that involving noted philosopher Paul Weiss, was not successful.

Weiss, now 72, says he had been offered the Albert Schweitzer chair on humanities at Fordham University in New York. "But there was a delay and in the end they said they didn't want me." Actually it was the state of New York which nixed the Weiss appointment because, as he and his lawyers grumble, he was a few years too old. Weiss sued and lost. A federal district court said that his denial was "not Constitutionally infirm." A court of appeals upheld the decision. The Supreme Court, giving no reason, as is its policy, refused to hear the matter.

(Five of the justices are in their 60s' William Douglas is 75), Weiss, of course, still believes the courts were Orem Crash Injures Two Two people were injured and one was admitted to Utah Valley Hospital following an accident about 10 p.m. Thursday, Orem Police reported.

Saudia Arabia Cuts Oil Output BEIRUT (UPI) -Saudi Arabia, largest of the Middle East oil suppliers, cut its oil production Thursday by 10 per cent and threatened a total cutoff of U.S. shipments unless the United States halts military aid to Israel. "The government of King Faisal decided to reduce ts production by 10 per cent immeHiately begining today and until the end of November," said Saudi Arabia's Riyadh Radio, monitored in Beirut. Cutting Traffic PROVO, Utah (UPI) -Traffic fatalities couid be reduced 40 per cent if American motorists used lap and shoulder belts at all times, reports a Brigham Young University researcher. Dr.

Charles Werner based his conclusion on studies made during his two years as acting chief of the driver-passenger protection division of the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration. i But Scott Martin 65? wrong. He says the idea of retirement is fine for people who want it, he says those people should be allowed to retire at a fixed age. "But retirement should be based on an individual rather than a wholesale basis. Why should I be denied employment if I want it and can handle it?" Under these conditions, he argues, denying him employment because of age is little different from denying blacks employment because of color.

Actually, Weiss is not out in the cold. When Fordham refused him, Catholic Univer-' sity hired him for a "special" post. He says he's carrying a stiff teaching load, has two books at the printers and is writing two more. "I may not have as many ideas popping out today, but the ones I have are good." He says he's not slowed down and still works "all day long." To be sure, Weiss could handle the Schweitzer chair or any other. So too could many people retiring today work on into their 70s with no ioss of production or strain.

In fact, numerous studies have disproved the image of older workers as falling asleep at their desks, or ever ready for a coronary when the boss is pushing something. To the contrary: experts say older people, being less prone to distraction, are often better workers than the young, and certainly more experienced. Yet a change in the retirement laws does not appear an immediate possibility. American business has operated too long under the out-at-65 principle. The older fellows, tor one thing, earn larger salaries than their younger replacements.

But critics of the status quo are not giving up. "Weiss has started something that can't stop," says a lawyer lamiliar with his case. "There'll be another test, and another, and a thousand more. You just can't kick the old people around anymore." (NEWSPAPER ENTERPRISE ASSN.) WORLD ALMANAC FACTS New Amsterdam's (New York) citizens aided the poor by a lottery, awarding Bibles to the winners in 1655. In colonial America public lotteries often replaced taxation as a means to raise money for schools, roads, canals and other public causes, The World Almanac notes.

Most colonial lawmakers, however, regarded private lotteries as pernicious. By ROBERT BUCKHORN WASHINGTON (UPI) -The energy crisis could resurrect ail-year-round daylight saving time just when its opponents were convinced it was in the legislative dustbin to stay. Twice before, in World War and World War II, the nation resorted to 12-month daylight saving time. But once the fighting stopped so did the "fast" clock. Britain has been on permanent "Summer Time" for several years.

Now with the energy shortage plaguing the United States, proponents of permanent daylight saving time offer the fast clock as a way to save electrical energy. The logic behind the idea is simple: Longer hours of daylight would cut the use of electrical energy needed for Wreckage Of Plane Discovered SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (UPI) -The Civil Air Patrol and a sheriff's search party have found the wreckage of a light plane which disappeared nearly 17 years ago with four persons aboard. What was left of the single-engine Cessna 170 which left Los Angeles International Airport March 2, 1957, bound for Palm Desert, was discovered at the level on the east slope of Mt. San Goronio, near Barton Flats.

A sheriff's search party reached the almost inaccessible spot after the plane was sighted by Civil Air Patrol pilot searching for another light craft missing since Oct. 8 on a flight from Nfesa, Ariz, to Sacramento, Calif. Sheriff's Inspector Willard Farquahr, who led both the original search in 1957 and Thursday's ground party, said no one could have survived the crash in the area. "It looks to me like the plane hit hard and was torn to pieces," Farquahr said. "It appeared to have caught fire, but you are looking at something 17 years old and it's hard to tell." Bits of what appeared to be a human skull and a deteriorated wallet were found at the scene, authorities said.

They noted there are many bears in the area. Aboard the plane when it took off were the pilot, Manorie King, 35. Los Angeles, her mother, Marjorie Kumler, La Jolla, and Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Wierdsma, of Kent, England.

An air and ground search was abandoned after 62 days in 1957 when rescuers failed to find the wreckage. The plane the CAP was looking for is a Beechcraft 33 piloted by John Morrison, believed to be from Sacramento. He was last heard from Oct. 8, when he radioed for weather information while over Lake Havasu City, Ariz. Hunting Fatalities SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -Hunter casualties in California in 1972 totaled 79 with 10 fatalities, according to the State Department of Fish and Game.

lighting homes, offices and streets. Turning the clock ahead could be more easily implemented than any of the other fuel-saving suggestions, its backers argue. So far, the only real support for the idea has come from Rep. Craig Hosmer, who has urged Congress for years to approve the idea, but tie has stirred little or no interest. The Transportation Department, which enforces the Uniform Time Act, admits it has been investigating the prroosal, but it shows no signs of producing legislation to put all-year-round daylight saving time into effect.

Backers of the idea claim that a saving in electrical energy would be only one of the benefits from their proposal. Longer hours of daylight could cut crime in the streets since burglars and muggers use the cover of darkness. The time change aiso might cut the number of highway deaths. According to this argument, most home wardbound commuting is done in darkness. This increases the chances of accidents.

Another added factor is drunk driving. The Transportation Department's own studies claim alcohol is involved in one-half of the nation's 56,000 highway deaths. Backers of year-round daylight saving time claim that most of this drinking and driving is done after dark. Extend daylight in the homeward bound hours, and the accident total wilT drop, they argue. Opponents are quick to point out that the change would mean more hours of darkness for early morning commuters.

Supporters counter that drivers in the morning are lets fatigued, a factor which lowers the accident rate. Critics contend that the lack of enthusiasm on the government's part stems from fear of another all-out fight over a time change. Until 1965, when the Uniform Time Act was passed, the U.S. was a crazy quilt of time zones. Two-time-zone states were common.

So were dual-zone counties. Even after passage of the Uniform Time Act, some counties and states continued to ignore the federal legislation and faced the threat of U.S. marshals being dispatched to set clocks on government ordered time. Even today, seven years after passage of the Uniform Time Act, three states, Arizona, Hawaii, and parts of Indiana exercising an option provided by the law, do not observe daylight time. One official put it this way: "the government has no taste for another time fight." 3 Guerillas Are Hanged In Rhodesia SALISBURY (UPI).

Rhodesia has hanged three, convicted guerillas, a government statement said. They were Richard Robinson, a man of mixed descent, and two Africans, Christopher Gum-borinotaya and Amon Sibanda. All three were convicted July 17 of murdering white police reservist David Stacey, who died March 9 during a clash with guerillas. time as the B'Nai B'Rith hon- ored Paramount's Frank Yablans, as its Man of the Year. Jack Lemmon was the MC for the evening and started the festivities off right by saying, "This is more than a thrill it's a damned inconvenience." Another Lemmon-quip I enjoyed was this remark: "I think Spiro Agnew will go down in history as a man of many gifts." Eddie Albert is a man of many parts.

He's always been in the forefront of the ecology war and now he's doing somthing about it which might make him some money, too. He behind a company manufacturing glass fiber chambers for controlled gardening. These are like small hothouses, designed so people can grow their own vegetables at home, organically and in unpolluted air. Rumors of a Frank Sinatra-Milton Berle feud are exagerrated. The story is this: There will be a 60th anniversary-in-show-business dinner for Berle and Sinatra agreed to be the toastmaster.

Then ABC contracted to telecast the dinner later (on Nov. 27) and that changed things. Sinatra's lawyers made him bow out of the deal because of a possible sponsor conflict between that show and his own coming special. But the two men are still good friends.

By Dick Kleiner HOLLYWOOD (NEA) -Hollywood stars, who used to be justly pictured as being almost exclusively self-centered, are more and more becoming interested in the world around them. Witness SINATRA: No Berle Feud. the crowd who showed up at Irving Wallace's house to meet Ralph Nader and help establish a new California Citizen Action Group to combat all the modern ailments. Among those present: Polly Bergen, Carroll O'Connor, Jean Stapleton, Steve and Jayne Allen, Martin Landau and Barbara Bain, Carl and Rob Reiner, Ray Bradbury (wearing a "Male Chauvinist Pig" button) and Norman Lear. For Martin Landau and Barbara Bain, the party was their last Hollywood appearance for some time.

Marty is off to England, Barbara and their daughters will follow soon, where he'll star in a science-ficiion series for Sir Lew Grade. He says it will be shown on network TV here, probably next year. Barbara was a little nervous She said she realized the move would change their whole lives "my 13-year-old daughter, assuming the series lasts a few years, could conceivably wind up marrying an Englishman. Nancy O'Connor, Carroll's wife, was wearing a neck brace. She said it was just a pinched nerve but it was painful.
