End Expected On Embargo QUITO, Ecuador (AP) The Organization of American States is expected to write an official end to its 12-year-old embargo against Cuba at a foreign ministers' meeting opening today.

A two-thirds vote 14 of the 21 nations meeting is needed to put an official end to the diplomatic and economic sanctions against Fidel Castro's Communist regime. Twelve of the governments already are on record in favor of repeal, and diplomats arriving for the five-day meeting anticipated that at least two more would come out on the side of the majority. Heated debate is expected, however, with the conservative military regimes in Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay waging a determined battle to maintain the official quarantine even though it has become ineffective. The United States delegation, headed by Undersecretary of State Robert Ingersoll, is likely to abstain on the vote in an attempt to avoid angering both the Latin-American majority opposed to the embargo and conservative circles in the United States that still want nothing to do with the Castro regime. As delegates to the meeting were arriving Thursday, a bomb exploded outside the Congress building where the conference is being held, injuring a watchman and his wife.

Vehicle Recovered A 1974 Ford Ranchero truck, stolen from Don Tilley on Thursday night, was recovered early today in a field near the Airport Road. Tilley reported he was working at his motorcycle shop on the Hickory Highway and the truck was taken between 11 p.m. Thursday and 4 a.m. today. Jack Deal spotted the truck in a field and called sheriff's deputies today at 7:54 a.m.

The vehicle was minus the back wheels and a tape player. Detective Cecil Cook said the hood latch was loose, two lug nuts had been removed from the front wheels, and indications were that someone had interrupted the stripping of the vehicle. Tilley: also reported a .38 caliber pistol had been stolen from the truck. Cook estimated value of the vehicle at $3,800. Cook said he had reason to believe the persons responsible for the theft of Tilley's truck were also responsible for the theft of four wheels taken from a truck parked at Little's Service Station on the Kyles Crossroads.

Cook said the vehicle belonged to Michael Sherrill of route 10, Statesville, and had been parked at the facility early Thursday night. Sherrill returned to his vehicle and discovered the theft at 12:27 a.m. today.

They added that the Israelis want the negotiations held in Washington. Informed sources said Premier Yitzhak Rabin also told Kissinger that his government would not negotiate with the Palestine Liberation Organization under any circumstances. The Arab summit conference last week recognized the PLO a as the government of a future Palestinian state on the occupied West Bank of the Jordan River, and King Hussein of Jordan said that ended his participation in negotiations for the end of the Israeli occupation there.

The Israelis feared American pressure to drive them to the table with the PLO after President Ford said this week that Israel should be negotiating with either Jordan or the guerrillas to settle the future of the West Bank. Kissinger, on his arrival from Damascus Thursday night, tried to quiet those fears by saying "there is no change in American policy on any of the issues." But this was not sufficient to reassure the Israelis, sources said. With his planned trip to Turkey canceled by the Turkish government, Kissinger planned to leave Israel before nightfall. He plans to stop in Tunisia for an overnight visit with President Habib Bourguiba on his way back to the United States. Federal Tax Liens Settled TAYLORSVILLE Both Tarlton Rinaldo Land Co.

and the Emerald Inn in Taylorsville will have to be sold to settle federal tax liens, according to John Tarlton, who owns both establishments. Federal tax liens totaling more than $18,000 have been filed in Iredell County Superior Court against the Tarlton Rinaldo Land and although the Emerald Inn has no liens against it, it, too, will have to be sold to pay off uncollected federal taxes. Tarlton said he does not plan to file for bankruptcy, but does hope to sell the property. Settlement of federal tax liens varies according to circumstances, but in some cases property may be seized to settle the claim. Asthmatic Child Helped LOUISVILLE, Ky.

(AP) Twoyear -old Chris Winninger is in Phoenix today, the beneficiary of a crosscountry campaign launched by two newspapers to get the asthmatic child to the dry climate of Arizona. "Tell everyone we said thank you," Mrs. Robert Winninger said as she, her husband and Chris boarded the jetliner at Standiford Field. The journey was conceived when a doctor told Winninger and his wife, Beverley, that Chris' severe asthma could endanger their daughter's life unless she got to a dry climate. Winninger, an unemployed laborer, had no way to move his family west until a couple of weeks ago, when the Louisville Courier -Journal ran a story about Chris' plight.

The response to the story was "unbelievable," Winninger said. Donations ranging from $1 to $100 amounted to about $1,900 in all enough to pay the little girl's medical expenses and the family's moving expenses. Mayor Harvey Sloane called the city managers of Phoenix and Tucson to ask about getting Winninger a job. Job possibilities were mentioned by a wide range of organizations. Then columnist Paul Dean of the Arizona Republic in Phoenix wrote a follow -up column that brought a swift and generous reponse in Arizona.

"People have offered the father jobs in body shops, auto shops, places like that," he said. "A hospital wanted to employ both parents. An allergy specialist and a pediatrician offered free care. offered them homes in summer cabins, guest houses, apartments and mobile homes." 2 Page Continued One From scheduled to go into effect January 1, 1975, in Social Security taxes, is beginning to bear heavily on the taxpayers, especially those in the brackets. For them, Social Security taxes will climb to $824.85 when the base is raised from the present $13,200 to $14,100 January 1.

Although the rate will remain at 5.85 per cent, the boost in the base represents an actual increase of 6.8 per cent for the employes affected and must be matched by their employers. That in itself represents a hidden increase of 13.6 per cent in the cost of doing business, which inevitably must be passed on to the customers. While the movement out in Michigan does not cover federal taxes, it is an indication that the people are beginning to figure out ways to get back at their government. And maybe it's not too soon.

Continued from Page One The only testimony Thursday was given by former White House lobbyist Powell Moore. Watergate prosecutors, meanwhile, are planning to play a small 1 portion of Haldeman's videotaped testimony before the Senate Watergate committee in the summer of 1973. The former White House chief of staff is accused in one of the counts of the indictment against him of lying in sworn testimony before the Senate, but there are conflicts in the official transcription of his words as published by the committee.

The prosecutors, side-stepping technical conflicts over the printed word, are planning on using videotape, a procedure Sirica has indicated he will probably allow. As expected Thursday, Sirica dismissed objections from defense lawyers to the admission of 26 White House tapes that prosecutors plan to play for the jury beginning Monday. Although none of the participatns in the conversations on the 26 tapes are to testify, the judge ruled that the prosecutors had done enough to prove that the tapes are accurate recordings of actual meetings Nixon had with his aides. The first of them to be played Monday records a June 23, 1972, meeting at which Nixon approves a plan to use the Central Intelligence Agency to thwart the initial FBI investigation into the break-in. Neal said Thursday that the live testimony of former CIA Director Vernon Walters and former acting FBI Director L.

Patrick Gray III will be used to support the evidence in the tapes. In his testimony, Moore described attempts to get the Watergate burglars out of jail on the day of the break-in, June 17, 1972.

WASHINGTON (AP) The key to Republican party setbacks in Tuesday's elections was the party's failure to attract votes from those who consider themselves independents, the political director of the GOP National Committee says. Normally they vote 60 to 40 for Republican candidates, but "this time they went 60-40 against us," Edward Mahe said Thursday during a panel discussion at the Washington Press Club. He said that in 1972 "they gave the Republicans a chance." But Mahe said that in the past two years "they've been giving the other side a chance." He also said that he has such faith in what the Democrats will do now, that he is certain "we'll recover in 1976." Mahe's Democratic counterpart, Robert Keefe, recalled a sales pitch from the early days of television and said the voters "have given us a 30-day home trial" and will decide in 1976 whether it's worth keeping the Democrats on further. "We've got a big opportunity but we're going to have to deliver," Keefe declared.

He predicted that "we will get some leadership in the House and the Senate" to enable the Democrats to deliver, adding "that will be a truly determining factor whether (President) Ford has a future." Mahe said he is confident that if Ford runs in 1976 "he would be accorded the nomination and he would win." Keefe said the election results were approximately what Democratic leaders had anticipated. But Mahe said, "We were surprised and somewhat shocked at the extent of our losses in the House." The GOP lost a net total of 43 House seats. Most Republican leaders had hoped to hold losses to about 25 and some had talked of keeping them as low as five. Mahe said it would have been even worse, except that "we did hold the Republican vote." Classified Ads Too Late To Classify FAT BOYS RESTAURANT CHRISTMAS PARTIES Call now for choice night.
