The current ceiling, under a law effective frun 1971 through 1973 crops, is I55.0UO a year per farmer for each of three crops wheat, feed grains and cotton A grower who produced the unusual combination of maximum eligible acreage of all three crops culd theoretically get a total of a year Under a new bill which cleared Congress last Friday, the ceiling for four years beginning in 1974 is lowered to per farmer for all three crops combined While reducing the ceiling, however.

Congress also Retained for cotton growers the right to sell or lease all or part of their planting allotments to other farmers This means cottm planters, who get most of the over $20,000 federal payments, could side-step the impact of the reduced ceiling by renting part of their allotments to growers who are small enough to fall below the payment ceiling Ordered the Agriculture Department to return to a regulation used in 1971 under which the agency, in figuring whether a farmer has reached his payment limit, ignores money paid to a farming corporation in less than a SO per rent interest. Under this 1971 rule for grower next year might operate his own farm and get $20,000 in cotton subsidy payments the legal ceiling. But in addition, he could own 49 per cent of the stock in a separate farming corporation in the next county which also drew $20,000 in cotton payments.

in the completion of 15 meeting. "The President acted as if he was hearing it for the first time, or if he had heard something, it was just the day before." Ousted White House Counsel John W. Dean III. in his testimony, said he met with Nixon in September and believed Nixon was aware the cover-up was going on in the White House. Kleindienst's version reportedly will say that Nixon said he met with Dean only once between the break-in and late March and at that one meeting Dean did not reveal the cover-up.

The story that Kleindienst took to Nixon was based largely on what Dean had told federal prosecutors. Dean, seeking immunity from prosecution at the time, has told prosecutors top White House aides H. R. Haldean and John D. Ehrlich-man were in on the cover-up and that several other top campaign and White House officials were involved in obstruction of justice.

Ordered Full Probe Kleindienst and Petersen reportedly will testify they were never ordered by Nixon to hold back on the Justice Department probe of Watergate. Kleindienst said he ordered a full probe "just as in any other case." But the source said Kleindienst told investigators that Ehrlichman at one point became involved in an attempt to prevent Maurice F. Stans, the head of the Finance Committee to Re-elect the President, from te i i before the Watergate grand jury. He was said to have received a telephone call from Ehrlichman complaining that Petersen would not stop insisting that Stans testify. Kleindienst told investigators that he instructed Ehrlichman never to call Petersen again, that Ehrlichman resisted and that the former attorney general had to threaten to go to the President before Ehrlichman backed down.

But there was no movement out of the city, and others caught in the fighting packed their belongings today and fled to Phnom Penh during the lull in combat, joining the thousands who had fled earlier. Today's heavy fighting left at least one village in smoldering ruins but field reports said Communist troops who at the height of the offensive had pushed to within one mile of the capital's southern edge retreated southward in mass disarray. A command spokesman said Highway 1, a vital lifeline to Phnom Penh, was now open all the way to Dey Eth. 13 miles away. In clearing the insurgents from the highway, field reports said Cambodian troops liberated the town of Veal Sbov, five miles southeast of Phnom Penh; Prek Eng.

two miles farther south; Koki. about 10 miles down the road from the capital, and many villages in between. Government troops, backed by heavy barrages of artillery and selective American air strikes, drove the rebels back Sunday night and early today, securing the road by daylight. About 80 per cent of Veal Sbov, the scene of heavy fighting Saturday and Sunday, was destroyed. Homes hit by artillery were left in piles of ashes that were still smoldering today.

The few remaining refugees at Veal Sbov picked through the debris, trying to salvage whatever they could. Water buffalo caught in the crossfire were scattered along the road. Field reports said the destruction started at Veal Sbov and extended far down the highway. In Phnom Penh, police sources said more caches of rebel supplies have been ucovered in the city. The sources said more than 50 040 rockets were seized.

A cache of 200 rockets and other arms and ammunition in the cellar of a house in the city's center was discovered Friday. Five persons were arrested. THE SUMMITVILLE Principal Robert Absher reports the Summitville School office will be open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. beginning August 15.

It was delayed until Saturday when motion sickness plagued the astronauts for the first five days. Another delay was called when the Apollo encountered its control rocket difficulty. Flight directors told the astronauts to erect the sunshade first, hoisting the white tarpaulin to the end of two 55-fmot long rods like raising a flag with its ends tight to two poles. Severe Short Circuit The nylon shade was ordered up because engineers fear the orange and silver umbrella raised by the Skylab 1 astronauts might deteriorate in the ultraviolent radiation from the sun. The new awning is protected with a solar reflective paint.

The 22 by 24 foot shade also is larger than the parasol and was expected to increase the shade over Skylab and reduce temperatures inside the space station's living quarters by 10 to 15 degrees. The new awning was expected to last well beyond January when the third crew is to leave the space station. Four telescopic cameras in the big observatory were emptied during the Skylab 1 flight and scientists were anxious to get them loaded with film for the ship's second round of sun watching. The film brought back during the first mission produced the best pictures of the sun ever taken. The solar physicists had a brief scare Saturday when the massive short circuit was recorded in the observatory.

Engineers said the short apparently burned through a bundle of wires in three seconds. A secondary sun-watching television system was knocked out but tests Sunday showed that the telescopes' delicate aiming gear and other observatory systems were not damaged. The short was traced to a wire junction box on the outside skin of the observatory and that was where the astronauts were asked to look for anything unusual.

"What we've done is take a throw-away fuel and turn it into some use," Michaels said, noting that one ton of refuse has about two-thirds the heating power of one ton of coal.

Unsorted plant waste will be trucked to a 26-foot-high hammer mill weighing 250,000 pounds. The mill will shred up to 60 tons of refuse an hour into random size pieces no larger than three inches in any one dimension.
