EPA approves $3~648,150 Syracuse-Racine sewage grant

Two Americans implicated
in hostage rescue attempt
By Tbe Associated Press
Two American men have been
arrested In Iran in COMection with
the failed hostage-rescue mission
and are being held in prison In
Tehran, the prosecutor-general's of·
flee said today.
An official said the two
Americans, whose names were not
disclosed, were being held in Evin
prison - the same place Cynthia
Dwyer, an American free-lance
journalist from Buffalo, N.Y., is
being held. Revolutionary guards
who arrested her say they have
proof she is a CIA spy.
The Iranian government also an·
nounced that an international conference would be held In Tehran, the
Iranian capital, from June 2-5, to
deal with alleged American crimes
against Iran, including the rescue effort last month in which eight
American commandos were killed.
A leawng Iranian official said
today the newly elected Iranian
parliament will not consider the fate
of the American hostages for some
time after it meets, probably putting
off the issue beyond June.
"We have many more important
decisions," said Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti, head of the Justice
Ministry and a spokesman for Iran's
nominally ruling Revolutionary
Council.
Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini,
Iran's supreme revolutionary
leader, has said the parliament will
decide what to do about the SO
American hostages who spent their

I'
I

!92th day in captivity todsy.

But Beheshti told reporters the
parliament must first choose a
prime minister and Cabinet, and
also discuss "the plans of the new
government," including education
policy and the Islamic "cultural
revolution.''
" It doesn't mean that we want to
delay the discussion of the problem
of the hostages" he said.
"Parliament will discuss it at the first possible chance."
Beheshti earlier said the hostage
issue would not be debated in
parliament before mid-June.
In other developments today:
-The official Iranian news agency, Pars, said Iranian authorities
had arrested 1,135 persons on nar·
cotic smuggling charges and confiscated drugs weighing more than
five tons.
- An Iranian Oil Ministry
spokesman announced a new
agreement for Iran to sell oil to
China. He did not disclose terms.
- The former director of the
Iranian National Oil Co. predicted
during a news conference in Paris
that Khomeini would be overthrown.
He said there are elements in Iran's
armed forces ready to rebel.
- The Interior Ministry said Iran's
revolutionary regime will prosecute
foreign journalists involved in plots
and keep American travelers under
surveillance to guard against conspiracies.
A ministry spokesman said after a

· meeting of the ruling Revolutionary
Council Tuesdsy night the government will be on the lookout for journalists who come to Iran with press
cards issued abroad and
"sometimes take part in conspiracies," the official Pars news
agency reported.
"Our officials will be on the alert,
and those whose actions conflict
with their work as journalists will be
prosecuted, just as some have
already been detained." This was an
apparent reference to free-lance
jOW1lalist Cynthia Dwyer of Buffalo,
N.Y., arrested on charges of being a
CIA agent.
The / spokesman added that
"Americans, who are not journalists
and who have entered Iran will be
kept under surveillance until .the
reason for their trip to Iran has been
clarified and it has been proved that
they do not intend to conspire against Iran or take part in sabotage activlties."

Ayatollah Ruhollab Khomeini's
government has been taking extra·
precautions ever since President
Carter's attempt to rescue the 53
American hostages was aborted 200
miles east of Tehran April 25
because of equipment problems.
The revolutionary regime refers
to the U.S. Embassy as "the den of
spies," and has announced disper·
sing the hostages, held since
miljtant students seized. the embassy Nov. 4, to 13 cities to foil
another U.S. rescue attempt.

A high-ranking U.S. Defense

discuss Community's proposal for
reviving the U.S. Steel plants.
Community Steel was incorporated by United Steelworkers
leaders in Youngstown to try to buy
the mills, which employed 3,500
workers before U.S. Steel began
phasing them out in March. Its plan,
offered to the EDA several weeks
ago, proposes raising $60 million to
put the aging facilities back in
operation. Much of the plan would be
backed by federal loan guarantees.
Union leaders suggested the
possibility of buying part or all of the
Ohio Works and McDonald Works
shortly after the shutdowns were announced by U.S. Steel in November.
But so far, they have been unable to
convince the company to discuss the
proposal.
U.S. Steel Chairman David
Roderick has said he would not sell
to a "government subsidized competitor. "
Karras declined to speculate
about the availability of the plants in
view of the company's adamant
position. But he said it was decided
that certain matters "need to be explored" before the plan to acquire
the mills can be considered.
One question which was raised involved the "down time" of the closed
miJls and what this might mean to
the market for products which had
been turned out by U.S. Steel's
Youngstown district, Karras said.
Other questions involved the
availability of private financing and
"operating management," he added.
Some of the mills' management
personnel had "expressed an interest In participating," but this still

·WASHINGTON (AP) - Interest
rates on government-hacked mortgages are falling by the sharpest
amount ever, 1.5 percent, amid hints
the Federal Reserve Board may
sooo dismantle credlt controls It imposed In March.
The government announced Wednesday that Federal Housing Ad·
ministration and Veterans Ad·
ministration mortgage rates for
single-family homes will drop from
13 percent to 11.5 percent, effective
today.
Meanwhile, Federal Reserve
Board Chairman Paul Volcker said
monetary and credit conditions have
improved so much of late that the
board can begin to consider
eliminating some of the controls imposed In March.
"Money and credit growth have
slowed appreciably. Indeed, there is

Volcker said in a speech to the
Natiooal Association of Mutual
Savings Banks, meeting In Lake
Buena Vtsta, Fla.
The economy has slowed considerably, leading many analysts to
predict a recession as bad, If not
worse, than the 19'14-75 downturn.
Nobel Prize economist Milton
Friedman, in an inte;view Wed·
nesday, said, "It would be a miracle
if, with thia kind of start, the
recession ended up less severe than
the (1974-75) one."
He sharply criticized the credit
controls Volcker said may be
dismantled.
In recent weeks, the money supply
has declined sharply, while the
govenunent has reported a rapid
rise In unemployment and the
smallest increase In wholesale
prices in 11 months.

Exemption for small
oil royalty owners

Japanese auto industry. in right gear
ByD011Graff
It is not true that Japan exports Its
entire auto production.
With three million cars on the
streets, Tokyo is not only the world's
largest city but the perfect locale for
some of its more massive traffic
jams. ELsewhere in intensely urbanized JaPif. the sitilation is
similar only on a smaller scale.
The' Japanese, In short, are as
auto-obsessed as any people in the
Industrial world, which gives them a
lot in common with Americans.
Too much, in fact, In the opinion of
some Ame.ricans. For all their frantic mobWty at home, the Japanese
still do export a very high percentage of a large and growing auto
output, predicted to pass the
American this Yel!l' to take over
world leadership. And a very high
percentage of those exports are to
the United States.
Americans who are in the business
of producing and selling automobiles
are Wlderstandably not bappy that
so many other Americans prefer the
Japanese products. Hence the issue
that, refusing to remain one of
apolitical economics, is straining
relations between the two nations

. Because of the withering economy, farmers now face
: almost as much stress as their city cousins in large cor. porations, says a psychologist who specializes in
. agriculturalists' strain.
"For the full-time farmer, stress has increased in the
last 10 years for a number of reasons, most of them very
. obvious to anyone who knows anything about the
: economy," said Dr. George Thompson, who owns a 32~
- acre farm in Lucas County.
A:&gt; a result, farmers currently measure about five or six
on a stress scale -just behind corporate heads, he said.
Such pressure, exhibited by about 50 symptoms, vary for
: different types of farming, Thompson said. For example,
: fruit and vegetable farming, dependent on weather and
·labor, results in more mental strain than livestock farming.
More tension also is evident in those with larger farm
. operations, he said. But if current economic trends con: tinue, that soon may not be a problem, he added.
Farmers also are overextended financially, he said.
"A lot of the farmers are refinanced three Of four
times," he said. "A farmer tries to have fingers in several
different potS to spread the risk. Several things can happen
at once."
In addition, farmers often believe they must shoulder all
responsibility by themselves. "It's him alone ~ sink or
swim," he said.
That independence occasionally prevents farmers from
seeking help if necessary, Thompson said. '
"Farmers themselves are stubborn traditionalists," he
.said. "They want to take the risks and face the problems
themselves.
"It is as mucn of a stigma for farmers to admit they are
depressed as it is for addicts to admit they are hooked on
drugs."

We would support corrective legislation that would
exempt the small oil well royalty owner from the
provisions of the windfall profits tax.
Southeastern Ohio has a number of small oil wells. Most
of these wells are worked by independent oil prOducers in
exchange for royalty payments to the property owner. In
many instances, the property owner is a small farmer or a
retired person who gets a limited percentage return from
the wells on their property.
The recently enacted windfall profits tax treats these
small royalty owners in the same manner as the
multinational oil companies. In our judgement, this is a
major defect in the law.
To correct the situation, legislation has been introduced
in the United States Congress that would exempt small
royalty owners from the windfall profits tax for up to a
total of tim barrels of oil per day.

By l\obertWalten
WASHINGTON (NEA)- The biggest financial scaildai in the history
of the federal govenunent could be
underway right now - but law- enforcement agents lack the resources
to stop the potential theft of billions
of dollars.
"It's a relatively new field," says
one Secret Service official in admitting that his agency can't cope with
the sophisticated criminal . technique. "You can safely say that
nobody's got a handle on it."
The stakes are truly enormous
because the amount of money
susceptible to fraud, embezzlement
and other fonns of unlawful conversion exceeds $500 billion per yearthe entire annual federal budget.
Although almost none of that
money Is in cash. Virtually all of the
funds are disbursed through conr
puter - generated Treasury checks,
highly negotiable financial . instruments that regularly authorize
siz· and seven-figure cash
payments.
The key to gaining illegal access to
that money Is computer fraud.
Although multiple safeguards are

built iiiio the federal system ID
prevent improper disbursements,
those measures already bave been
foiled in at least three instances.
A federal grand Jury In Baltimore
recently Indicted an employee of the
Social Security Administration on
charges of manipulating that agency's computer to pay herself and two
accomplices more than tooQ,OOO In
unauthorized disability benefits.
The accused government
employee worked at the agency's
headqua~rs in the Baltimore
suburb of Woodlawn, Md. Her office,
only a 8lllall part of the vast Social
Security bureaucracy, processed
more,/!"'" $1 billion in govenunent
dlsabl"ty payments every month.
In an earlier case, a supervisory
clerk in Chicago was accused of
feeding Into a govenunent computer
false claims for federal benefits,
producing approximately $100,000
worth ct unauthorized welfare
checks for herself and accomplices.
The most widely publicized of the
federal computer - fraud cases involved an employee of the Department of Transportation assigned to

the Washington headquarters of the
Urban Mass Transportation Ad-

ministration.
He devised a computer • fraud
scheme to divert Into his bank account more than $850,000 eannarked
for construction of Atlanta's new
subway system, then spent the
money on a dozen new cars, a new
home, a swimming pool and gambling junkets to Lall VegM.
Infonnation about those cases is
available because criminal charges
have been filed against the alleged
embezzlers In federal courts. The
Secret Service, responsible for protecting all Treasury funds, will not
discuss dozens of similar cases In
which Investigations still. are incomplete.
The government is neither the only target for computer thieves nor
the source of the largest known
embezzlements.
An employee of the Security
Pacific National BAnk has been convicted of defrauding · that Los
Angeles bank of $10.2 million by
manipulating a computer to transfer
the money to hl8 pei'IIOIIai bank accounts In other clti~.

In another Loa Angeles case, more
than a dozen officers and employees
of the Equity Fwxling Corporation
ct America have been convicted on
charges of using a computer 8cheme
to create $2 bW!CJO worth &lt;i
fraudulent life-Insurance policies.
But the government's computers
pose special problelils because so
much money is Involved and
because safeguards remain Inadequate. One General Accounting Of·
flee study found "serious
weaknesses" In security sys!em9
and "Increasing potential for fraud,
abuse ... and economic loss."

Exemption for small

Japanese auto industry. in right gear
ByD011Graff
It is not true that Japan exports Its
entire auto production.
With three million cars on the
streets, Tokyo is not only the world's
largest city but the perfect locale for
some of its more massive traffic
jams. ELsewhere in intensely urbanized JaPif. the sitilation is
similar only on a smaller scale.
The' Japanese, In short, are as
auto-obsessed as any people in the
Industrial world, which gives them a
lot in common with Americans.
Too much, in fact, In the opinion of
some Ame.ricans. For all their frantic mobWty at home, the Japanese
still do export a very high percentage of a large and growing auto
output, predicted to pass the
American this Yel!l' to take over
world leadership. And a very high
percentage of those exports are to
the United States.
Americans who are in the business
of producing and selling automobiles
are Wlderstandably not bappy that
so many other Americans prefer the
Japanese products. Hence the issue
that, refusing to remain one of
apolitical economics, is straining
relations between the two nations

. Because of the withering economy, farmers now face
: almost as much stress as their city cousins in large cor. porations, says a psychologist who specializes in
. agriculturalists' strain.
"For the full-time farmer, stress has increased in the
last 10 years for a number of reasons, most of them very
. obvious to anyone who knows anything about the
: economy," said Dr. George Thompson, who owns a 32~
- acre farm in Lucas County.
A:&gt; a result, farmers currently measure about five or six
on a stress scale -just behind corporate heads, he said.
Such pressure, exhibited by about 50 symptoms, vary for
: different types of farming, Thompson said. For example,
: fruit and vegetable farming, dependent on weather and
·labor, results in more mental strain than livestock farming.
More tension also is evident in those with larger farm
. operations, he said. But if current economic trends con: tinue, that soon may not be a problem, he added.
Farmers also are overextended financially, he said.
"A lot of the farmers are refinanced three Of four
times," he said. "A farmer tries to have fingers in several
different potS to spread the risk. Several things can happen
at once."
In addition, farmers often believe they must shoulder all
responsibility by themselves. "It's him alone ~ sink or
swim," he said.
That independence occasionally prevents farmers from
seeking help if necessary, Thompson said. '
"Farmers themselves are stubborn traditionalists," he
.said. "They want to take the risks and face the problems
themselves.
"It is as mucn of a stigma for farmers to admit they are
depressed as it is for addicts to admit they are hooked on
drugs."

We would support corrective legislation that would
exempt the small oil well royalty owner from the
provisions of the windfall profits tax.
Southeastern Ohio has a number of small oil wells. Most
of these wells are worked by independent oil prOducers in
exchange for royalty payments to the property owner. In
many instances, the property owner is a small farmer or a
retired person who gets a limited percentage return from
the wells on their property.
The recently enacted windfall profits tax treats these
small royalty owners in the same manner as the
multinational oil companies. In our judgement, this is a
major defect in the law.
To correct the situation, legislation has been introduced
in the United States Congress that would exempt small
royalty owners from the windfall profits tax for up to a
total of tim barrels of oil per day.

By l\obertWalten
WASHINGTON (NEA)- The biggest financial scaildai in the history
of the federal govenunent could be
underway right now - but law- enforcement agents lack the resources
to stop the potential theft of billions
of dollars.
"It's a relatively new field," says
one Secret Service official in admitting that his agency can't cope with
the sophisticated criminal . technique. "You can safely say that
nobody's got a handle on it."
The stakes are truly enormous
because the amount of money
susceptible to fraud, embezzlement
and other fonns of unlawful conversion exceeds $500 billion per yearthe entire annual federal budget.
Although almost none of that
money Is in cash. Virtually all of the
funds are disbursed through conr
puter - generated Treasury checks,
highly negotiable financial . instruments that regularly authorize
siz· and seven-figure cash
payments.
The key to gaining illegal access to
that money Is computer fraud.
Although multiple safeguards are

built iiiio the federal system ID
prevent improper disbursements,
those measures already bave been
foiled in at least three instances.
A federal grand Jury In Baltimore
recently Indicted an employee of the
Social Security Administration on
charges of manipulating that agency's computer to pay herself and two
accomplices more than tooQ,OOO In
unauthorized disability benefits.
The accused government
employee worked at the agency's
headqua~rs in the Baltimore
suburb of Woodlawn, Md. Her office,
only a 8lllall part of the vast Social
Security bureaucracy, processed
more,/!"'" $1 billion in govenunent
dlsabl"ty payments every month.
In an earlier case, a supervisory
clerk in Chicago was accused of
feeding Into a govenunent computer
false claims for federal benefits,
producing approximately $100,000
worth ct unauthorized welfare
checks for herself and accomplices.
The most widely publicized of the
federal computer - fraud cases involved an employee of the Department of Transportation assigned to

the Washington headquarters of the
Urban Mass Transportation Ad-

ministration.
He devised a computer • fraud
scheme to divert Into his bank account more than $850,000 eannarked
for construction of Atlanta's new
subway system, then spent the
money on a dozen new cars, a new
home, a swimming pool and gambling junkets to Lall VegM.
Infonnation about those cases is
available because criminal charges
have been filed against the alleged
embezzlers In federal courts. The
Secret Service, responsible for protecting all Treasury funds, will not
discuss dozens of similar cases In
which Investigations still. are incomplete.
The government is neither the only target for computer thieves nor
the source of the largest known
embezzlements.
An employee of the Security
Pacific National BAnk has been convicted of defrauding · that Los
Angeles bank of $10.2 million by
manipulating a computer to transfer
the money to hl8 pei'IIOIIai bank accounts In other clti~.

In another Loa Angeles case, more
than a dozen officers and employees
of the Equity Fwxling Corporation
ct America have been convicted on
charges of using a computer 8cheme
to create $2 bW!CJO worth &lt;i
fraudulent life-Insurance policies.
But the government's computers
pose special problelils because so
much money is Involved and
because safeguards remain Inadequate. One General Accounting Of·
flee study found "serious
weaknesses" In security sys!em9
and "Increasing potential for fraud,
abuse ... and economic loss."

electric power. This power may only be sold at wholesale to municipalities. If excess power is generated, it may be sold to any other electric
utility, public or private, with Ohio utilities given first preference.
The legislature will decide the methods by which these political subdivisions will be formed and the rules under which they wlll operate.
The amendment would authorize passage of laws that provide for these
political subdivisions to issue bonds and other· securitie• to finance,

pay some or all of the obligation.
The amendment prohibits these political subdivisions from using the
authority of the state to take over any property of existing electric
companies.
Certain constitutional limitations regarding public debt and the use of
public funds would not apply to such political subdivisions.

ARGUMENT FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
NEW ENERGY FOR OHIO THROUGH COOPERATIVE ACTION
State Issue One offers every Ohioan the opportunity to do something
positive about the energy crisis.
In order to maintain the health of Ohio's business climate, attract new
industry, protect our tax base and provide new jobs, Ohio must double its
capacity to generate electricity by the year 2000.
That means all segments of the state's power industry must cooperate
to meet our current and future energy needs.
• State Issue One ... wlll permit Ohio's 83 municipal electric IJYiteiDII
to do what investor-owned utilities, rural electric cooperatives and
cities in more than 30 other states can do ... to iolnlly build electric
facilities.
.
• State Issue One . .. will Increase the use of Ohio coal by at least
2.5-million tons per year . .. will aid Ohio in attracting and keeping
industry through competitive electric costs.
• State Issue One ... wlll contribute to stabilization of elecll'lc rates
by financing new plant construction with tax-exempt revenue bonds
and delaying the need for investor-owned plant expansiOn.
• State Issue One ... willaave an expected $1-bllllon in electric rates
for the citizens of Ohio during the next 25 years.
• State Issue One ... will NOT Increase taxes ... will NOT add new
taxes .•. will NOT Increase the debt of the State or any Ohio
municipality.
• State Issue One . .. will NOT add to the bureaucracy of the State.
The Ohio General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to place Issue One
on the June Primary ballot. Issue On_e is bei~g supported ~~ a non-~art!san,

PROPOSED .AIUIDMENT
TO- THE OHIO COISTITUTION

EXPLANATION OF ISSUE No. 2 Ia• prepared by the Ohio Ballot Board)
1. The purpose of this amendment would be to allow a method of making
lower cost loans available for the acquisition, construction and improvement of privately owned housing in Ohio. A three-step procedure Is
involved:
a. The state, counties, cities, and villages would be permitted 1o borrow
money and issue bonds or other obligations.
b. This money could then be loaned only to residential mortgage lenders
or brokers (such as banks, savings and loan associations, and mortgage companies).
c. The mortgage lenders or brokers may thim loan the money for
acquisition, fmprovement and construction of privately owned housing for persons of low and moderate incomes.
2. The amendment permits the legislature to pass laws regulating the
method by which the state, counties, cities, and villages may borrow
money and issue tax-exempt bonds and other obligations to raise funds
to achieve these 1&gt;ur'poses.
3. Moneys raised by taxation may not be legally pledged for payment of
the bonds or guarantees. The amendment does not prohibit the use of
tax moneys to assist repayment of the governmental unit's obligations.
ARGUMENT FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
Ohio's citizens deserve a positive, aggressive approach by its state gov·
ernment to ensure housing for its low and moderate income residents.
Witness today's housing market:
-Mortgage rates are over 16%
-New home loans in Ohio are down $500 million over a year ago
-The Housing construction industry, which means jobs for our citizens,
is depressed.
The net effect of all this is that most Ohioans cannot afford to buy a new
home.
Issue 2 would alter Ohio's Constitution to permit Ohio to use its credit
resources to extend mortgage arrangements to its citizens at a cost lower
thu private-lending institutions.
The need for the passage of Issue 2 is evident. In 1979, the average house
was selling at the inflated price of $63,800, and this translates into a sober.
ing monthly mortgage payment of $637, based on a 13 percent interest rate
that is no longer available. The terms of today's mortgage rates are clearly
unaffordable and unacceptable to average-income Ohioans.
The overall effect of this situation is staggering. As inflation saps pur·
chasing power, Americans must continue to draw down their savings.
Saving for a home, which ideally is the first priority of many people,
realistically has given way to meeting everyday living costs.
Interest rates charged by private lenders are a discouragement 1o prospective home-buyers. The impact of these interest rates is felt not only by
the poor and near poor, but also by moderate income families. At the
same time, there is a substantial stock of housing available, particularly in
central cities, that can be re-introduced into the housing market. What Is
needed is a mechanism to provide financial assistance.
In 1977, forty-one states had bona fide state housing finance agencies.
Ohio and Ohioans deserve no less.
Vote tor Issue 2.
Committee For the Amendment: William Bowen, Richard Maier,
Kinsey Milleson, Edward Orlett and
Paul Pfeifer
ARGUMENT AGAWST THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
It is not a function of the government of the State of Ohio 1o provide
low cost financing for the purchase or remodeling of homes by low and
middle income families. Making low interest money available 1o those
regularly engaged in the residential mortgage loan business will simply
create another level of government bureaucracy to hinder more than help
the free market place.
Intervention into the free market place by the government in the manner
prescribed by this proposal Is another step closer to total government con·
trol of the economy and one step closer to Socialism.
Owning a home is a desirable goal for every American. This goal can
best be achieved by creating incentives in the private sector through inter·
est incom~ exemption to those who finance homes for low and middle
income persops. Interest income from home mortgages could be treated
the same as income from municipal and state bonds in order to bring
about lower interest rates.
In11ation can only be controlled when government limits its power and
authority to spend-:this constitutional amendment would not be c.onslltent
with this philosophy.
·
.
This plan is nothing more than a ruse to take advantage of exist!Jlg
internal revenue laws by using the state or local governmental unit to
provide low interest tax free bond money for housing.
The voters have recently expressed their distaste for this type of proposal on the part of the state. The potential for abuse is staggering, not
only due to political. currents, but also due to sheer lack of experience in
this type of venture.
The proposed changes to the Constitution spring from well Intentioned
motives held by a great many citizens of this state who recognize the need
for the revitalization and constuction of housing, but this method of doing
so is ill-advised.
·
Committee Against the Amendment: Larry Manahan

EXPLANATION OF ISSUE No.3 (u prepaz !cLbY the Ohlo Ballot Board)
l. This amendment would allow the leglslat Ire to authorize the issuance
of bonds and notes for the construction, •rl toratlon, or other permanent
improvements of bridges, highways, ·roajf.'. streets, and highway rest
areas, for the elimination of railroad grade crossings, and for the related
acquisition and permanent improvement , f real estate.
2. The amendment would impose two limita "ons on the amount of bonds
and notes that could be issued. The llrst.~mitation would prevent the
issuance of more than two hundred ml!~on dollars ($200,000,000) of
bonds and notes in any fiscal year, not eluding any bonds or notes
issued to refund or retire bonds or notes' hat had been issued earlier.
The second limitation would prevent .the issuance of more bonds and
notes than could be paid from the follo~jng sources: (A) the existing
gasoline tax levied by section 5728.16 of t~ Ohio Revised Code, (B) the
existing tax levied on commercial vehicl s with three or more axles,
and (C) any federal grants or subsidies for the payment of any highway
bonds and notes. Previously issued.bonds r notes which are to be paid
from moneys or securities earmarked for . eir payment are not subject
1o this limitation.
3. These bonds shall have a maturity based on· the life usefulness of the
improvements, up to a maximum of thir~ (30) years. The authority 1o
issue such bonds does not expire.
4. The proposed amendment exempts these · onds and notes from certain
CO!IBtitutional restrictions on debt. Thesecbonds and notes will be gen·
er•l ohlig.otlons hAolu&gt;d by tha eradit and venues of the state.

ARGUMENT AGAINST THE PROPOSED · AMENDMENT
Iasile 3, a proposal allowing the state to tell bonds for highway construe·
Uon must be defeated! This proposal jeopardi2es the financial well-being
of the state treasury by overextending cun'ent revenues.
Too many unanswered questions surround this. issue for it to be passed
by the vot~rs and included In our state ConstitutiOn. For Instance:
• Js!;ue proponents assume that gas tax revenues will remain constant
for the next ten years so that bonds can. be- repaid by a combination
of axle-mile tax and 1' of the state gas -ta«. Gas consumption and
gas tax revenues, however, have been · deClining due to high gas
prices, supply shortages, and more "fJiiclent .cars. It Is irresponsible
to base the state's ability to pay back t4i! bonds on a declining
revenue source.
•·
• Ohio's bond rating has been lowetfld: This means higher interest
rates on bond sales. It is foolish to!:exfeet bond rates to remain
stable and thus affordable in this tllrn! o . ·excessive inflation.
• U gas tax revenues decline and bond rates ,c ontinue to increase, this
proposal will cut even deeper into tbe dollai"II needed by the Ohio
Department of Transportation for lt!J daily operations.
• Ohio's roads need massive repair work. ..This proposal would not
solve the problems of repair and reslli'facing affecting our highways.
• Among the assumptions surrounding .Issu11 3, one fact stands out:
this proposal costs too much for what it .is worth. Ohioans would
pay a total $2.6 billion for only $1.2·.billion.Jn actual road improvements!
•
·
• Issue 3 must be defeated because it;ls financially unsound. Long·
term debt increases long-term costs:r Thia. is a price that Ohioans
cannot alford to pay.
···
,,
• Vote against Issue 3.

BALLOT LANGUAGE, EXPLANATIONS, ARGUMENTS, AND
RESOLUTIONS FOR AMENDMENTS TO THE OHIO
CONSTITUTION PROPOSED BY .THE GENERAL
ASSEMBLY TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE VOTERS AT
THE PRIMARY ELECTION, JUNE 3, 1980

PROPOSED AMENDMENT
TO THE OHIO CONSTITUTION
1

PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
To adopt Section 14 of Arti cle VIII of the Ohio Constitution

THIS PROPOSED AMENDMENT:
I. ALLOWS PUBLIC FINANCING OF ELECTRIC GENERATING

FACILITIES BY ALLOWING, THROUGH LEGISLATIVE ACTION,
NON-PROFIT CORPORATIONS TO BECOME POLITICAL SUB·
DIVISIONS OF THE STATE TO OPERATE ELECTRIC UTILITIES.
THE ELECTRIC POWER PRODUCED BY SUCH POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS SHALL BE SOLD AT WHOLESALE RAT!lS TO
MUNICIPALITIES FOR THEIR OWN USE OR FOR SALE AT
i{ETAIL. EXCESS POWER MAY BE SOLD TO ANY OTHER
ELECTRIC UTILITY AT WHOLESALE, WITH OHIO UTILITIES
GIVEN FIRST PREFERENCE.
2. PERMITS THE LEGISLATURE TO PASS LAWS: (AL'ElEGULAT·
lNG SUCH POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS AND THEIR OPERA·
TIONS, (B) LIMITING ADVERSE EFFECTS UPON OTHER
ELECTRIC UTILITIES AND PRESERVING FAIR COMPETITIVE
RELATIONSHIPS. AND (C) ALLOWING SUCH A POLITICAL
SUBDIVISION TO BE TAXED.
3. ALLOWS SUCH POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS TO ISSUE BONDS
TO FINANCE. ACQUIRE. AND OPERATE THEIR F AGILITIES.
TAX MONEY SHALL NOT BE PLEDGED. BUT MAY BE USED.
FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS.

facilities require huge investments an.d wise management; nothing ln Issue
I convinces Ohioans that such expenditures are prudent or that the public
sec~or can effectively manage a modern electric generating project. Ex·
per1ence has taught us that when government operates a servite monopoly,
for example, the U. S. Postal Service, good service at a low cost Is anything
but the result
:For these reasons the defeat of Issue I is urged.
Committee Against the Amendment: Helen Fix and John Wargo

Section 14 (or 15) of Article VIII of the Ohio Constitution
THIS PROPOSED AMENDMENT:
I. ALLOWS THE STATE, CITIES. VILLAGES, AND COUNTIES TO

BORROW MONEY FOR THE PURPOSE OF MAKING AVAILABLE
LOWER COST FINANCING OF PRIVATELY OWNED HOUSING
FOR PERSONS OF LOW AND MODERATE INCOME, BY LEND·
lNG THE MONEY TO RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE LENDERS OR
BROKERS.
2. ALLOWS THE LEGISLATURE TO PASS LAWS AUTHORIZING
SUCH BORROWING AND LENDING AND PROVIDING FOR THE
ISSUANCE OF BONDS FOR THIS PURPOSE.
3. PROVIDES THAT TAX MONEY SHALL NOT BE PLEDGED. BUT
MAY BE USED. FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS.
4. EXEMPTS TH;E BONDS, OBLIGATIONS. AND LOANS FROM

EXPLANATION OF ISSUE No. I (as prepared by the Ohio Ballot Board)

1. This amendment would allow non-profit corporations, through legis-

lative action, to become political subdivisions of the state to generate
electric power. This power may only be sold at wholesale to municipalities. If excess power is generated, it may be sold to any other electric
utility, public or private, with Ohio utilities given first preference.
The legislature will decide the methods by which these political subdivisions will be formed and the rules under which they wlll operate.
The amendment would authorize passage of laws that provide for these
political subdivisions to issue bonds and other· securitie• to finance,
acquire, and operate their facilities. While taxes may not be pledged to
secure the bonds, the amendment does not prohibit the use of taxes to
pay some or all of the obligation.
The amendment prohibits these political subdivisions from using the
authority of the state to take over any property of existing electric
companies.
Certain constitutional limitations regarding public debt and the use of
public funds would not apply to such political subdivisions.

ARGUMENT FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
NEW ENERGY FOR OHIO THROUGH COOPERATIVE ACTION
State Issue One offers every Ohioan the opportunity to do something
positive about the energy crisis.
In order to maintain the health of Ohio's business climate, attract new
industry, protect our tax base and provide new jobs, Ohio must double its
capacity to generate electricity by the year 2000.
That means all segments of the state's power industry must cooperate
to meet our current and future energy needs.
• State Issue One ... wlll permit Ohio's 83 municipal electric IJYiteiDII
to do what investor-owned utilities, rural electric cooperatives and
cities in more than 30 other states can do ... to iolnlly build electric
facilities.
.
• State Issue One . .. will Increase the use of Ohio coal by at least
2.5-million tons per year . .. will aid Ohio in attracting and keeping
industry through competitive electric costs.
• State Issue One ... wlll contribute to stabilization of elecll'lc rates

ARGUMENT AGAINST THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
Tli.e passage of Issue I would promote yet another unwi~e go':e~nmental
intrusion into an already over-regulated sector of economic actiVlty- the
provision of electric utility service.
.
.,.
The idea of citizen-owned and operat~d el'7tr!c utihtles to )the -extent
to which that _practice currently operates m Ohw, 1s sounj. ancy:s not under .
attack by the opponents of Issue I.
.
But Issue I proposes over-ambitiously, by the creation of a quas~·publlc
corporation to permit Ohio municipalities- in cooperatio!' With. one
another- 'to launch into multi-million dollar po~er generating proJects.
And that corporation would have the/ower to Issue bonds and assume
massive debt which would be require to build and operate an electric
enerating facility. Such an arran~ement would ~e an unwise_ ~ep~rture
from a current constitutional prohibition to proh1b1t any mumctpality to
"loan its credit to" ·any company or corporation.
.
On at least two ~aunts Issue I .provides no satisfying answers. The Ian·
gu ge of Issue I provides no mechanism for the people, by referendum! to
re·~t a Ian by their municipal government to. embark upon a proJect

PROPOSED .AIUIDMENT
TO- THE OHIO COISTITUTION

EXPLANATION OF ISSUE No. 2 Ia• prepared by the Ohio Ballot Board)
1. The purpose of this amendment would be to allow a method of making
lower cost loans available for the acquisition, construction and improvement of privately owned housing in Ohio. A three-step procedure Is
involved:
a. The state, counties, cities, and villages would be permitted 1o borrow
money and issue bonds or other obligations.
b. This money could then be loaned only to residential mortgage lenders
or brokers (such as banks, savings and loan associations, and mortgage companies).
c. The mortgage lenders or brokers may thim loan the money for
acquisition, fmprovement and construction of privately owned housing for persons of low and moderate incomes.
2. The amendment permits the legislature to pass laws regulating the
method by which the state, counties, cities, and villages may borrow
money and issue tax-exempt bonds and other obligations to raise funds
to achieve these 1&gt;ur'poses.
3. Moneys raised by taxation may not be legally pledged for payment of
the bonds or guarantees. The amendment does not prohibit the use of
tax moneys to assist repayment of the governmental unit's obligations.
ARGUMENT FOR THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
Ohio's citizens deserve a positive, aggressive approach by its state gov·
ernment to ensure housing for its low and moderate income residents.
Witness today's housing market:
-Mortgage rates are over 16%
-New home loans in Ohio are down $500 million over a year ago
-The Housing construction industry, which means jobs for our citizens,
is depressed.
The net effect of all this is that most Ohioans cannot afford to buy a new
home.
Issue 2 would alter Ohio's Constitution to permit Ohio to use its credit
resources to extend mortgage arrangements to its citizens at a cost lower
thu private-lending institutions.
The need for the passage of Issue 2 is evident. In 1979, the average house
was selling at the inflated price of $63,800, and this translates into a sober.
ing monthly mortgage payment of $637, based on a 13 percent interest rate
that is no longer available. The terms of today's mortgage rates are clearly
unaffordable and unacceptable to average-income Ohioans.
The overall effect of this situation is staggering. As inflation saps pur·
chasing power, Americans must continue to draw down their savings.
Saving for a home, which ideally is the first priority of many people,
realistically has given way to meeting everyday living costs.
Interest rates charged by private lenders are a discouragement 1o prospective home-buyers. The impact of these interest rates is felt not only by
the poor and near poor, but also by moderate income families. At the
same time, there is a substantial stock of housing available, particularly in
central cities, that can be re-introduced into the housing market. What Is
needed is a mechanism to provide financial assistance.
In 1977, forty-one states had bona fide state housing finance agencies.
Ohio and Ohioans deserve no less.
Vote tor Issue 2.
Committee For the Amendment: William Bowen, Richard Maier,
Kinsey Milleson, Edward Orlett and
Paul Pfeifer
ARGUMENT AGAWST THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT
It is not a function of the government of the State of Ohio 1o provide
low cost financing for the purchase or remodeling of homes by low and
middle income families. Making low interest money available 1o those
regularly engaged in the residential mortgage loan business will simply
create another level of government bureaucracy to hinder more than help
the free market place.
Intervention into the free market place by the government in the manner
prescribed by this proposal Is another step closer to total government con·
trol of the economy and one step closer to Socialism.
Owning a home is a desirable goal for every American. This goal can
best be achieved by creating incentives in the private sector through inter·
est incom~ exemption to those who finance homes for low and middle
income persops. Interest income from home mortgages could be treated
the same as income from municipal and state bonds in order to bring
about lower interest rates.
In11ation can only be controlled when government limits its power and
authority to spend-:this constitutional amendment would not be c.onslltent
with this philosophy.
·
.
This plan is nothing more than a ruse to take advantage of exist!Jlg
internal revenue laws by using the state or local governmental unit to
provide low interest tax free bond money for housing.
The voters have recently expressed their distaste for this type of proposal on the part of the state. The potential for abuse is staggering, not
only due to political. currents, but also due to sheer lack of experience in
this type of venture.
The proposed changes to the Constitution spring from well Intentioned
motives held by a great many citizens of this state who recognize the need
for the revitalization and constuction of housing, but this method of doing
so is ill-advised.
·
Committee Against the Amendment: Larry Manahan

EXPLANATION OF ISSUE No.3 (u prepaz !cLbY the Ohlo Ballot Board)
l. This amendment would allow the leglslat Ire to authorize the issuance
of bonds and notes for the construction, •rl toratlon, or other permanent
improvements of bridges, highways, ·roajf.'. streets, and highway rest
areas, for the elimination of railroad grade crossings, and for the related
acquisition and permanent improvement , f real estate.
2. The amendment would impose two limita "ons on the amount of bonds
and notes that could be issued. The llrst.~mitation would prevent the
issuance of more than two hundred ml!~on dollars ($200,000,000) of
bonds and notes in any fiscal year, not eluding any bonds or notes
issued to refund or retire bonds or notes' hat had been issued earlier.
The second limitation would prevent .the issuance of more bonds and
notes than could be paid from the follo~jng sources: (A) the existing
gasoline tax levied by section 5728.16 of t~ Ohio Revised Code, (B) the
existing tax levied on commercial vehicl s with three or more axles,
and (C) any federal grants or subsidies for the payment of any highway
bonds and notes. Previously issued.bonds r notes which are to be paid
from moneys or securities earmarked for . eir payment are not subject
1o this limitation.
3. These bonds shall have a maturity based on· the life usefulness of the
improvements, up to a maximum of thir~ (30) years. The authority 1o
issue such bonds does not expire.
4. The proposed amendment exempts these · onds and notes from certain
CO!IBtitutional restrictions on debt. Thesecbonds and notes will be gen·
er•l ohlig.otlons hAolu&gt;d by tha eradit and venues of the state.

the legislative authority (usually the board of county comm1sswners
or elected charter commission to mail or distribute a copy of any proposed charter or amendment to each of the registered voters in the
county.
.
4. The proposed amendment would "bhange these methods so tdhaht only onbee
copy of the proposed charter. or c~arter a~e~dment wou1 ave 1o,
delivered to each household m which an eligible voter resides.

ARGUMENT AGAINST THE PROPOSED · AMENDMENT
Iasile 3, a proposal allowing the state to tell bonds for highway construe·
Uon must be defeated! This proposal jeopardi2es the financial well-being
of the state treasury by overextending cun'ent revenues.
Too many unanswered questions surround this. issue for it to be passed
by the vot~rs and included In our state ConstitutiOn. For Instance:
• Js!;ue proponents assume that gas tax revenues will remain constant
for the next ten years so that bonds can. be- repaid by a combination
of axle-mile tax and 1' of the state gas -ta«. Gas consumption and
gas tax revenues, however, have been · deClining due to high gas
prices, supply shortages, and more "fJiiclent .cars. It Is irresponsible
to base the state's ability to pay back t4i! bonds on a declining
revenue source.
•·
• Ohio's bond rating has been lowetfld: This means higher interest
rates on bond sales. It is foolish to!:exfeet bond rates to remain
stable and thus affordable in this tllrn! o . ·excessive inflation.
• U gas tax revenues decline and bond rates ,c ontinue to increase, this
proposal will cut even deeper into tbe dollai"II needed by the Ohio
Department of Transportation for lt!J daily operations.
• Ohio's roads need massive repair work. ..This proposal would not
solve the problems of repair and reslli'facing affecting our highways.
• Among the assumptions surrounding .Issu11 3, one fact stands out:
this proposal costs too much for what it .is worth. Ohioans would
pay a total $2.6 billion for only $1.2·.billion.Jn actual road improvements!
•
·
• Issue 3 must be defeated because it;ls financially unsound. Long·
term debt increases long-term costs:r Thia. is a price that Ohioans
cannot alford to pay.

Lakers can
LOS ANGELES .(AP) - The Los
Angeles Lakers need just one more
victory to wrap up the National
Basketball Association championship, but if Kareem Abdul·
Jabbar's hurting, they may be, too.
1be Lakers won 108-103 Wednesday night to take a three ga:mes
to two edge over the Philadelphia
76ers in the best-of-seven championship series, but Abdul.Jabbar
suffered a sprained left ankle which
may limit his playing time - or ef·
flclency.

wraP up NBA title --maybe

Answers to Abdul-Jabbar 's
avaUabllty for Friday night's sixth
game in Philadelphia - and to a
possible seventh in Los Angeles Sunday - are expected Friday mor·
ning. Team physician Dr. Robert
Kerlan said that an evaluation would
be made then to judge "what the
pain and discomfort is."
Abdul.Jabbar hurt the ankle when
he came down on it awkwardly after
a. shot late in the third quarter. He
left the game, but returned in the
fourth guarter. Although limping,

the 7-foot-2 center scored H of his 40
points in the final period and tallied
a key three-point play that broke a
103-103 tie with33 seconds left.
Before being whisked away to a
nearby hospital !Or-precautionary X·
rays after the game, AbduJ..Jabbar
said, " It really hurts, but I felt I had
to come back."
Playing his finest game of the
series, Abdul.Jabbar hit 16 of 24
floor shots and eight of nine from the
free throw line, and also had 15
rebounds and four blocked shots.

Amazingly, he even dominated the
game by his absence when he went
out to have the ankle examined and
taped.
The contest had been tight all the
way, and Los Angeles WIIB ahead 6~
67 when Abdul..Jahhar hobbled off.
The fired-up Lakers then ran off a
12~ string to go into the fourth quar·
ter with an 81-73 lead. Tbe 76ers
began closing the gap in the final
five minutes of the contest, tying the
game before Abdjil.Jabbar's layln
and free throw ami Norm Nixon's

Watson has sights
set for Colonial
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) Tom Watson, riding the hottest
streak in golf, had his sights today
on the ~.000 Colonial National Invitation and a jackpot only he can

claim.
And lf his capitalistic colleagues
are correct, Watson may just pull it
off.

"The odds are against it of course," said former Masters champion
Charles Cood:y, "but if any guy can
do it, he's the one."
Watson, 30, ·said he would like
nothing better than to erlend his
current victory streak to four, which
would give him the $54,000 Colonial
prize plus an additional $200,000
bonus.
Called the "Texas Bonanza,"

sponsors of the Byron Nelson and the
Colonial offered golf's greatest cash
prize to anyone who could win both
tournaments.
."Tom's on such a streak now it
doesn't make any difference if he's
piliyJng for l600,000, f60,000 or $60,"
said Ray Floyd.
"l'd.say .the odds really are in his
favor ... His chipping and putting
covers up a lot of sina," said Ben
Crenshaw.
Watson captured the Nelson crown
and $5-1,000 last week in Dallas and
extended to 12 the number of consecutive rounds in which he has

Ali-Holmes fight will
take place·in U, S.
NEW YORK (AP) - The
promoter of the Muhanunad All·
Larry Holmes World Boxing Council
heavyweight title. fight says the
bout, which will mark AU's return to
the ring from retirement, will take
place in this country sometime in
August.
Murad Muhammad said Wednesday that the undefeated Holmes
and All will meet in the United
States in late summer rather than in
BrazU on July 11. The 165,000
Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janiero
was to be the site but was ruled out
because or several problems, one of
which was complaints by the
stadium executive that conatruction
of the ring and seats would damage
the grass at the height of the soccer
season.
"We feel that the United States is
the best place for the fight," Murad
Muhammad said. "It was our investors' decision to bring it here, but
the July II th date was too soon.

PTO discusses improvements,

The puzzle editor lor "Inside AlP"
is Ethel Brsuer. She professes not to

enjoy pll%1les particularly, except
lor crossword pilzzles, at which she
is a whlz.
Only once in her memory, she
said, and it happened just last week,
has she printed a bum puzzle.
"Can't be done," an irate physicist
wrote her. "Neither Joe nor Ted nor
Sam nor Sue could have won the
French prize." Just so. Apologies
will be made nerl issue.
" Inside AlP" is chock full of
erudite infonnatlon of special interest to physicists in various branches - optics, acoustics, rheology
("things that flow," a rheologist explained, " think of catsup"),
astronomy, crystallography - but
the pUZ2le, according to editor
Liltely, is a favorite feature of all of
them.
"Some of them phone us to confir.m their answers because they
can't wait until the next issue," she
said.
"One physicist, a l(ice president at
Douglas Aircraft, sent his answer in
the form of a limerick. I guess the
message is that physicists like to
have fun, too."
All right, end of suspense. Here
come the answers.
It takes Tim, a slowpoke, 24 days
to dig a hole alone.
The wrong letter, obviously, is the

course, be a W. The sum, clearly, is

LOS ANGELES .(AP) - The Los
Angeles Lakers need just one more
victory to wrap up the National
Basketball Association championship, but if Kareem Abdul·
Jabbar's hurting, they may be, too.
1be Lakers won 108-103 Wednesday night to take a three ga:mes
to two edge over the Philadelphia
76ers in the best-of-seven championship series, but Abdul.Jabbar
suffered a sprained left ankle which
may limit his playing time - or ef·

Answers to Abdul-Jabbar 's
avaUabllty for Friday night's sixth
game in Philadelphia - and to a
possible seventh in Los Angeles Sunday - are expected Friday mor·
ning. Team physician Dr. Robert
Kerlan said that an evaluation would
be made then to judge "what the
pain and discomfort is."
Abdul.Jabbar hurt the ankle when
he came down on it awkwardly after
a. shot late in the third quarter. He
left the game, but returned in the
fourth guarter. Although limping,

the 7-foot-2 center scored H of his 40
points in the final period and tallied
a key three-point play that broke a
103-103 tie with33 seconds left.
Before being whisked away to a
nearby hospital !Or-precautionary X·
rays after the game, AbduJ..Jabbar
said, " It really hurts, but I felt I had
to come back."
Playing his finest game of the
series, Abdul.Jabbar hit 16 of 24
floor shots and eight of nine from the
free throw line, and also had 15
rebounds and four blocked shots.

Amazingly, he even dominated the
game by his absence when he went
out to have the ankle examined and
taped.
The contest had been tight all the
way, and Los Angeles WIIB ahead 6~
67 when Abdul..Jahhar hobbled off.
The fired-up Lakers then ran off a
12~ string to go into the fourth quar·
ter with an 81-73 lead. Tbe 76ers
began closing the gap in the final
five minutes of the contest, tying the
game before Abdjil.Jabbar's layln

Watson has sights
set for Colonial
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) Tom Watson, riding the hottest
streak in golf, had his sights today
on the ~.000 Colonial National Invitation and a jackpot only he can

claim.
And lf his capitalistic colleagues
are correct, Watson may just pull it
off.

"The odds are against it of course," said former Masters champion
Charles Cood:y, "but if any guy can
do it, he's the one."
Watson, 30, ·said he would like
nothing better than to erlend his
current victory streak to four, which
would give him the $54,000 Colonial
prize plus an additional $200,000
bonus.
Called the "Texas Bonanza,"

sponsors of the Byron Nelson and the
Colonial offered golf's greatest cash
prize to anyone who could win both
tournaments.
."Tom's on such a streak now it
doesn't make any difference if he's
piliyJng for l600,000, f60,000 or $60,"
said Ray Floyd.
"l'd.say .the odds really are in his
favor ... His chipping and putting
covers up a lot of sina," said Ben
Crenshaw.
Watson captured the Nelson crown
and $5-1,000 last week in Dallas and
extended to 12 the number of consecutive rounds in which he has

bout, which will mark AU's return to
the ring from retirement, will take
place in this country sometime in
August.
Murad Muhammad said Wednesday that the undefeated Holmes
and All will meet in the United
States in late summer rather than in
BrazU on July 11. The 165,000
Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janiero
was to be the site but was ruled out
because or several problems, one of
which was complaints by the
stadium executive that conatruction
of the ring and seats would damage
the grass at the height of the soccer
season.
"We feel that the United States is
the best place for the fight," Murad
Muhammad said. "It was our investors' decision to bring it here, but

PTO discusses improvements,

The puzzle editor lor "Inside AlP"
is Ethel Brsuer. She professes not to

enjoy pll%1les particularly, except
lor crossword pilzzles, at which she
is a whlz.
Only once in her memory, she
said, and it happened just last week,
has she printed a bum puzzle.
"Can't be done," an irate physicist
wrote her. "Neither Joe nor Ted nor
Sam nor Sue could have won the
French prize." Just so. Apologies
will be made nerl issue.
" Inside AlP" is chock full of
erudite infonnatlon of special interest to physicists in various branches - optics, acoustics, rheology
("things that flow," a rheologist explained, " think of catsup"),
astronomy, crystallography - but
the pUZ2le, according to editor
Liltely, is a favorite feature of all of
them.
"Some of them phone us to confir.m their answers because they
can't wait until the next issue," she
said.
"One physicist, a l(ice president at
Douglas Aircraft, sent his answer in
the form of a limerick. I guess the
message is that physicists like to
have fun, too."
All right, end of suspense. Here
come the answers.
It takes Tim, a slowpoke, 24 days
to dig a hole alone.
The wrong letter, obviously, is the
first X in the anawer. It should, of
course, be a W. The sum, clearly, is

Helen Help Us

Small girls ' club has
big 'club' over head
By Helen aDd Sue Bone!
Special correspoodeata
DEAR HELEN AND SUE :
We are a small club with about 15
members, and one problem: All of
us get along except for one girl. She
tells lies and gets us in trouble with
parents. She's always causing
fights. She's only 11, but curses like
·she was 50.
But the club is held in her basement and her brother and sister say
If we put her out, they'll see that the
club breaks up.
I'm the president and try to
smooth things over, but this is gettin8 bad. What can we do next? SINKING FAST
DEARS.F.:
First: find another meeting place.
You can't deal with a problem unW
you stop owing her gratitude for the
basement room.
Next: lay it on the line. Tell this
girl, as sympathetically as possible,
how the others feel, and offer help in
smothlng out her personality. .
Last: If she won't listen, call a
vote on ousting her. This might be
the shock she needs. - HELEN
AND SUE
DEAR RAP :
I don 'I know Lisa very well, but
I'm worried about her. She's 18,
seven months pregnant and bas
never seen a doctor for prenatal
care. She lives with her family, who

Audrey Brewer of Stiversville celebrated her 81st birthday
onMay9.
Calling during the day were Mr.
and Mrs. Harold Brewer and Mrs
Jone Fitch, Long Bottom, who
brought gifts, a cake and ice cream.
On Friday evening Mrs. Brewer
was surprised with a visit from Mr.
and Mrs. VIrgil Bogard and Mr. and
Mrs. James Pauley, Patricia and
James, who spent the evening. They
also brought ice cream, cake, gifts
and cards from the Hazel Community Church. Mrs. Virginia
Newlun sent a card and gift from her
family, and on Sunday Mrs. Brewer
received flowers from her church
and several telephone calls.
Visitors on Sunday were Mrs.
Marllyn Beall and son, Mark,

show.
Helen and Sue, she is starving
herself - she eats almost nothing.
Perhaps she feels she can hide her
pregnancy unW she goes to the
hospital (under a false name) and
gives the baby up for adoption. Actually, I don't believe she's thinking
ahead atall.
·
I'm concerned for her health and
for the baby's too. I've tried talking
to her, but she's like a wall, though I
know she's overwhelmed with fear.
You've heard of mothers delivering
and abandoning their babies in rest
rooms, and she might.
Would it be terrible of me to tell
her parents?- PAT
DEAR PAT:
Why not instead tell a childwelfare counselor, or a representative from Birthright, a non-profit
organization dedicated to assisting
troubled pregnant women. U you
can offer Lisa solid information on
how she can be helped, much of her
unreasoning fear may dissolve. HELEN
PAT:
Lisa needS a friend who can break
through that wall of fear. Even
thoough you don't know her very·
well, insist that she doesn't close you
out. She'lllisten If you show you truly care - and ·she'll be forever
grateful that you directed her
toward expert counseling. -SUE

RAP :
Phooey to those militants who yell
"sexual harassment" at the drop of
a pat. I come-from an office of fanny
patters. I don't feel insulted, degraded or misused. Rather I'm complimented that someone would take
the time to show they like what I
have (which isn't much. I'm afraid).
· In our office, patting is done with
good hwnor and respect and if a
female (or male ) worker said ''No,"
it wouldn't happen again. -FANNY
PATI'ED AND APPREClATED

Helen Help Us

Small girls ' club has
big 'club' over head
By Helen aDd Sue Bone!
Special correspoodeata
DEAR HELEN AND SUE :
We are a small club with about 15
members, and one problem: All of
us get along except for one girl. She
tells lies and gets us in trouble with
parents. She's always causing
fights. She's only 11, but curses like
·she was 50.
But the club is held in her basement and her brother and sister say
If we put her out, they'll see that the
club breaks up.
I'm the president and try to
smooth things over, but this is gettin8 bad. What can we do next? SINKING FAST
DEARS.F.:
First: find another meeting place.
You can't deal with a problem unW
you stop owing her gratitude for the
basement room.
Next: lay it on the line. Tell this
girl, as sympathetically as possible,
how the others feel, and offer help in
smothlng out her personality. .
Last: If she won't listen, call a
vote on ousting her. This might be
the shock she needs. - HELEN
AND SUE
DEAR RAP :
I don 'I know Lisa very well, but
I'm worried about her. She's 18,
seven months pregnant and bas
never seen a doctor for prenatal
care. She lives with her family, who
aren't aware, as she still doesn't

Audrey Brewer of Stiversville celebrated her 81st birthday
onMay9.
Calling during the day were Mr.
and Mrs. Harold Brewer and Mrs
Jone Fitch, Long Bottom, who
brought gifts, a cake and ice cream.
On Friday evening Mrs. Brewer
was surprised with a visit from Mr.
and Mrs. VIrgil Bogard and Mr. and
Mrs. James Pauley, Patricia and
James, who spent the evening. They
also brought ice cream, cake, gifts
and cards from the Hazel Community Church. Mrs. Virginia
Newlun sent a card and gift from her
family, and on Sunday Mrs. Brewer
received flowers from her church
and several telephone calls.

show.
Helen and Sue, she is starving
herself - she eats almost nothing.
Perhaps she feels she can hide her
pregnancy unW she goes to the
hospital (under a false name) and
gives the baby up for adoption. Actually, I don't believe she's thinking
ahead atall.
·
I'm concerned for her health and
for the baby's too. I've tried talking
to her, but she's like a wall, though I
know she's overwhelmed with fear.
You've heard of mothers delivering
and abandoning their babies in rest
rooms, and she might.
Would it be terrible of me to tell
her parents?- PAT
DEAR PAT:
Why not instead tell a childwelfare counselor, or a representative from Birthright, a non-profit
organization dedicated to assisting
troubled pregnant women. U you
can offer Lisa solid information on
how she can be helped, much of her
unreasoning fear may dissolve. HELEN
PAT:
Lisa needS a friend who can break
through that wall of fear. Even
thoough you don't know her very·
well, insist that she doesn't close you
out. She'lllisten If you show you truly care - and ·she'll be forever
grateful that you directed her
toward expert counseling. -SUE

RAP :
Phooey to those militants who yell
"sexual harassment" at the drop of
a pat. I come-from an office of fanny
patters. I don't feel insulted, degraded or misused. Rather I'm complimented that someone would take
the time to show they like what I
have (which isn't much. I'm afraid).
· In our office, patting is done with
good hwnor and respect and if a
female (or male ) worker said ''No,"
it wouldn't happen again. -FANNY
PATI'ED AND APPREClATED

Readers reveal secrets

Secret."

Other readers sent letters that
were shorter though not necessarily
less dramatic or conflict-ridden.
Here are some excerpts:
DEAR DR. BLAKER - I wrote a
letter to you about my secret - that
I was a heavy drinker before I met
my wife - but never mailed it.
When I re-read the letter after getting everything down on paper, I
decided to tell my wife the whole
story. It was such a relief!
But the amazing thtng was that
she already knew. A friend of mine
had told her about my drtnktng problem 22 years ago, but she kept the
revelation from me so as not to hurt
my feelings.
DEAR READER- You cleared
up that kind of "family secret" that
everyone knows but doesn't know
that everyone else knows. I hope this
exchange of confidences helps your
marriage grow.
DEAR DR. BLAKER - I am male

but often wear nylon stockings and a
garter belt.
I do not consider myself a
tranvestite, although by strict
definition I probably am. I wear
these garments not because I like to
wear clothing of the opposite sex but
for practical reasons.
Some years ago, my job required
that I be outdoors on many cold
nights. My wife told me how warm
nylon stockings are, and I tried
them. I liked the warmth and the
smooth, tault feel of the stockings
under my suits.
I tried men's tights, but they didn't
feel as comfortable.
I wear nylons almost every day in
winter and on cool eventngs during
the rest of the year.
Of course, I can't tell anyone except my wife. She thtnks it is quite a
sensible thing to do.
DEAR READER - By "strict
definitiOn," a transvestite is a
heterosexual man who wears
women's clothes because that is his
preferred - and often his only way to become sexually excited.
Now that your misconceptions
about transvestites are cleared up,
you may or may not continue to keep
your secret. Whatever you decide, I
hope you will feel less guilty and less
disturbed.
Mter all, women wear men's
clothes because they are often more

practical. That is perfectly acceptable.

had spent all her free time for 17
days typing out the intricacies of her

I read every word. And I would
have made an exception to my nopersonal-replies policy In her case If
she had glven a return address. But
she said she only wanted "someone

Dear Peggy:
I'm just about ready for Patty Asbeck's OVAL and library·
sponsored PI'OIII'am Saturday on how to make books and what to write
In them. It's called "Be a Publisher, Be an Author'' and takes ~Ia~!!
this Saturday, May 17 at Middleport Ubrary at 1 p.m. Patty says aU
children kindergarten through sixth grade are welcome. My two boys
are coming, T. J. Robbana will be there, and I hope your girls will
come too. (Patty is bopingfor~25 children, I thtnk.)
Another program coming up is more than a one-shot thing. Mrs.
Kathy Manlcke of Tuppers Plains, a mother with two young children
and a reading specialist, has volunteered to do a pre-school story hour
for children, 2~ to 6 years old. I don't remember whether Billy has
reaclted the "Terrible Two's" yet; but if he qualifies, be sure you call
IJ92.5813 in advance to register and plan to stay with him at least the
first few weeks. Mrs. ·Manicke will start Story Hour Thursday, June
5th at 10:45 a.m. The odd time Is because the library doesn't ODen till
10:30 p.m. and I don't want any children standing out in the rain I've
been praying for .
Ruth is busy making arrangements for swnrner programs for
children. When you and I ialked about your doing a program on
tracing your ancestors, that's what I had in mind. But at least one
adult heard you're planning a genealogy program and wants to be
there. Can I persuade you to do two versions, one for adults and one for
children?
We can talk about that on :.aturoay .
Sincerely yours,
Ellen Bell, Ubrarian

Pomeroy, Ohio 45769
Dear Peggy:
I'm just about ready for Patty Asbeck's OVAL and library·
sponsored PI'OIII'am Saturday on how to make books and what to write
In them. It's called "Be a Publisher, Be an Author'' and takes ~Ia~!!
this Saturday, May 17 at Middleport Ubrary at 1 p.m. Patty says aU
children kindergarten through sixth grade are welcome. My two boys
are coming, T. J. Robbana will be there, and I hope your girls will
come too. (Patty is bopingfor~25 children, I thtnk.)
Another program coming up is more than a one-shot thing. Mrs.
Kathy Manlcke of Tuppers Plains, a mother with two young children
and a reading specialist, has volunteered to do a pre-school story hour
for children, 2~ to 6 years old. I don't remember whether Billy has
reaclted the "Terrible Two's" yet; but if he qualifies, be sure you call
IJ92.5813 in advance to register and plan to stay with him at least the
first few weeks. Mrs. ·Manicke will start Story Hour Thursday, June
5th at 10:45 a.m. The odd time Is because the library doesn't ODen till
10:30 p.m. and I don't want any children standing out in the rain I've
been praying for .
Ruth is busy making arrangements for swnrner programs for
children. When you and I ialked about your doing a program on
tracing your ancestors, that's what I had in mind. But at least one
adult heard you're planning a genealogy program and wants to be
there. Can I persuade you to do two versions, one for adults and one for
children?
We can talk about that on :.aturoay .
Sincerely yours,
Ellen Bell, Ubrarian

MAPS RECYCLED
ROANOKE, Va. (AP) - Don't be
surprised if a map of Long Island,
N.Y., or Marblehead, Mass., turns
up inside a government letter.
With an eye on paper conservation, the U.S. Geological Survey is making envelopes from its old
maps. They are cut, folded and the
government address is printed at an
envelope company here.
The firm bas filled an order for
50,000 envelopes, and is working on a
second batch of 30,000. They are
used for general correspondence.
'It's kind of a pleasant surprise to
see the government conserving
paper," said Dalton Miller, the
firm 's vice president. " As a taxpayer, I'm delighted."

TOKYO (AP) - Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party suffered
a surprise defeat in a no-confidence vote today that will force Prbne
Minister Masayoshi Ohira to resign or call for new parliamentary
elections. It was the first time since 1953 that a ruling party in Japan
bad lost a no-confidence vote.
Ohira, who expected to weather the balloting by a sbnple majority,
looked stunned by tbe 243-187 vote against him and his 17-month-old
cabinet.

U. S. Energy Secretary Charles DwK:an says he is considering
halting work until the 1986 fiscal year on the gas, centrifuge uranlwn
enrichment plant which is under construction at Piketon, Ohio.
The department originally planned to have the plant in operation
by 1989. Nearly $300 million of the facility's projected~ million cost
bas been spent. Duncan raised the possibility of delayillg work at the
plant in an article in the weekly Washington newsletter ''Inside DOE.''
Duncan is expected to make a decision on tbe plant before the DOE's
fiscal 1!182 budget is submitted to the federal Office of Management
and Budget.
Some department officials think delaying consiruction could bait
work on tbe plant entirely, since it would give the department more
time to learn whether new technology could produce enriched
uranium for less money.

Congress approves food stamp program
food stamp money was not appropriated by Thursday.
A Senate - House conference committee acknowledged that the $2.56
billion in emergency relief it even·
tually agreed on abnost certainly
will not be enough to pay for food
subsidies through the summer.
But House conferees, led by Rep.
Jamie L. Whitten, D-Miss., rejected
a Senate proposal to increase the
supplemental appropriation by $440
million, to $3 billion.
In a compromise, the conference
conunittee approved a non-binding
pledge that said Congress is likely to
provide the extra money before the
end of the fiscal year.
But proponents of stricter spen·
ding controls on food stamps got the
conference to also agree that
Congress does not intend to go

food ·stamp program in doubt by
rejecting additional funds supporters insist will be needed to keep
the program in business through

Iran suffers from political woes
By Tbe Associated l'rells
Reports from Tehran tell of lines

and that things could get worse if the
Common Market countries go along
with President Carter's call for the
bnposition of sanctions. The nine
nations pledged last month to impose sanctions if no significant
progress had been made toward the
release of the U.S. hostages had
been made by May 17.
,
Japan bas indicated it will follow
Western Europe's lead, but another
U.S. ally, Canada, bas taken a waitand-see attitude until the Conunon
Market countries announce details
of any boycott after their Naples

outside food stores and skyrocketing
unemployment - indications that
Iran is suffering from months of
political and economic conflict with
the United States and its allies.
Yet these reports say that few observers in Tehran ·believe that any
economic sanctions by the European
Common Market - a question
scheduled to be decided this
weekend by the nine member
nations meeting in Naples, Italy would have an bnmediate bnpact.
Iran's revolutionary government
draws most of its support from the
working classes and peasants +
people less affected by the economic
downturn than the middle class.
The Iranian revolution is still a
political and religious phenomenon
despite an unemployment rate of
about 30 percent and an inflati~n
rate officially reported at 20 percent
and unofficially estimated at 50 percent.
Iranian leaders are described in
the Tehran accounts as looking for
new otl customers and trading partners. Emissaries from Soviet-bloc
countries are Dying into Tehran with
trade offers; the government bas
reached oil agreements with Poland
and Czechoslovakia, and is talking
about oil and natural gas sales to the
Soviet Union. China also is increasing oil bnports from Iran.
But Iranian leaders bave been

already feeling the economic pinch,

"Yes, ·there will be some difficulties caused by these sanctions,"
Ayatollah Mohammad Beheshti told
reporters in Tehran last Wednesday,
but he added that the sanctions
would help Iran stand on its own feet
economically.

Walkout
hurts
economy
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - A
week-long walkout by members of
the construction trades has halted
millions of dollars worth of private
and public construction projects in
the state.
Talks to end the walkout were to
continue today between labor officials and the Ohio Contractors
Association.
A spokesman for the association
said talks are scheduled with
representatives of laborers, Teamsters, finishers and carpenters
unions.
The contract being negotiated
covers some 20,000 laborers who are
members of 88 locals in Ohio and
four in northeastern Kentucky.
Contracts will also be negotiated
for 1,000 to 1,200 teamsters and. an
undetermined nwnber of finishers
and contractors.
The spokesman said it would be
difficult to estimate the nwnber of
construction jobs baited or slowed
by the dispute.
But tbe work stoppage is delaying
major road bnprovment and construction projects in southwest Ohio,
a highway engineer in the Department of Transportation's district 8
said.
"Among the projects that are at a
standstill right now is one of tbe
biggest in the state," said Doug Rlddiough, acting construction engineer
in Lebanon. "That's a hill
stabilization job on Interstate 471
near CinclrmaU that includes some
tunneling work and concrete pilings
90 feet into the ground.''
