GEORGETOWN, . Guyana
·(UPI) - A suitcase stuffed

of the Rev . Jim Jones and tbe
mass suicide of his 908 blindly

another~ hit
By Bob Qoefllch
Santa . always a most popular fellow, scored another hit
Monday' night as Middleport ~elcomed in the Christmas
holiday season with the annual parade sponsored by
Middleport merchants.
,
A cold drizzling rain stopped, as if on cue, to aUow the
parade io move through the business section, lined with
hundreds of residents.
Headed by Miss Candy Ingels representing the Middleport
Chamber of C&lt;mmerce, the parade was led by the Middleport
Police Dept. and emergency units. It featured the Me1gs
and Kyger Creek bands and lots of pretty girls including Mar;:
Mora Meigs Junior Fair Queen; Cindy Patterson and Lon
Chap.:Oan, the new Junior Miss Program winners; Judy Hall,
Meigs Homecoming queen; Jarus Carnahan, Southern
H&lt;mec&lt;ming queen, and Meigs High cheerleaders.
The Glo-&lt;!ttes and the Royal-&lt;!ttes baton groups were on hand

.
There were entries by the Me1gs County Humane Soc1ety,
the WeStern Boot C.B. Club, the Gallia-Meigs Community
Action Agency Headstart, the Big Bend C.B. Club. In addition

Bringtk up the rear was Santa who again .made his
' appearance on a lighted float complete w1th re1ndeer,
artificial- and live ·elves.

COLUMBUS (UPI) - Howard Cummins has sent a letter
to Gov. James A. Rhodes and speculation is that it contains his
resignation from the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.
Cummins was appointed to the PUCO by Rhodes and has
been serving on it since Sept. 12. However, his credentials as a
Democrat and his beliefs about utility regulation came under
fire during Legislative hearings on confirming his appointment.

advance of August and the 0.5 percent increase of September .
Grocery prices jumped 0.9 percent after leveling off during the
sununer, prlmarly because of large increases in meat costs.
- Housing costs rdse I percent, also the largest since J une,
as home prices and mortgage interest rates continued to
climb.
- Medical ca re costs rose 1.1 percent, the biggest increase of
1978.
- Entertainment costs doubled from the prev1ous month ,
rising 0.8 per cent.
The Labor Department said the overall 0.8 percent increase
last month meant prices were 8.9 percent higher than in
October 1977. If prices rose over the next year at the same rate
they did last month it would mean an annual inflation rate of
9.6 percent.
President Carter's anti-infl ation program has a goal of
bringing inflation down to between 6 and 6.5 percent in 1979, a
developmen t which most private economists believe is highly
unlikely.
The increase ln grocery prices - 0.9 percent - was more
than double September 's 0.4 percent gain. Grocery prices were
unchanged in August and bad actually declined in July.
The main culprit was meat, which rose 2.1 oercent after

By JAMES HILDRE'l11
WASHINGTON ( UPI) - Led bY sharp climbs in food and
housing costs, consumer prices surged 0.8 percent in October
and have now more than doubled in the past 11 years, the
government reported today.
The hefty increase last month matched the September advance and offered a vivid demonstration that inflation remains
deeply embedded in the nation's economy despite government
efforts to bring it under control.
The Labor Department said its consumer price index for all
urban consumers, which covers about 60 percent of the
population, stood at 200.9 last month.
That statistic means goods and services which cost Americans $100 in 1967- the base year for such calculations -cost
$200.90 in October. Or put another way, $100 today would buy
less than hall of what it did 11 years ago.
1rt another bit of discouraging news , t!)e department also
reported that individual purchasing pbwer in October slipped
below year-ago levels for the fiftli consecutive month.
The newest inflation report contained these price developments for October :
-Food and beverage costs jumped 0.8 percent, the largest
gain since June and considerably ·above the 0.2 percent

PRICE FIFTEEN CENTS

falling in the previous three months .
Pork prices rose 3. 7 percent, the first gain in five months.
Beef prices climbed l.B percent following an 0.4 percent gain in
the prev1ous month and poultry prices, which declined in both
August and September, rose 2.5 percent.
.
Prices also increased for fruits and vegetables, eggs, dairy
products and cereal and bakery products.
On the other hand , prices for sugar and sweets fell for the
fir st time this year and the downtrend in coffee prices - which
began in mid-1977 ..., continued .
In the housing category , home prices rose 1.4 percent and
mortgage interest rates jumped 0.7 percent, about the same as
in September. However, the measurements were compiled
before the government's Nov. 1 dollar-rescue pian was
announced. Since then, mortgage rates have soared
dramatically.
Heme maintenance and repairs were considera bly more
expensive in. October than in recent monl.hs while fuels and
other utilities rose 0.7 percent, more than in each of the three
preceding months.
The 1.1 percent rise in medical care costs was almost double
September's 0.6 percent gain as increased charges by doctors,
dentists and hospitals were near double-digit annual levels.

Iength for the third time a
proposed rate increase by the
PoinTView Cable Television
Co . It turned down the first
reading of an ordinance
which would have put the

vote.
Paul Gerard, company
representative, discussed the
rate hike and services which
the company plans to offer
the village.
Under the plan, Channel 4,
Columbus, will be removed
from the stations, two local
type stations will be com·
bined and the village would
be offered (wo 24·hour
stations, one a Christian
Broadcasting Station. and
Channel 17 out of Atlanta
The company had asked to
· increase the rates from $6 a

month to $7 a month and from
$4.50 to $5.25 a month for
disabled and senior citizens.
In a letter to coWJcil members, the company pointed
out that while the increase
was more than the recommended percentage by
President Carter, when
figured on the basis of one
year the overall increases the
company has had in Middleport over the years would
amount to only less than fiv~
percent.
Councilman Charles
Mullen said he fel t the
television cable company is
like any other business and
that COWlCil should not have
the control over its rates.
However, COWlCilman Dewey

Dear Helen :
Now that I'm back from visiting you and our sister, Cindy,
in New York City, I want to U!ank you for your hospitality and
-for taking me to tl!e bookstore in New Haven.
I was really pleased witl! tl!e bargains we were able to fmd
for tl!e libraries : The Dieter's Guide to Weight Loss During
Sex, a paperback copy of Robert's Rules of Order, The Official
Guide to Disco Dance Steps, The Women's Room, U!ree
science fiction paperbacks, The New York Times Book of
House Plant.'!, The Prophet, and others. And !think we picked
some good records too - Rita Coolidge's l.AlVe Me Again, the
soundtrack from Grease, and tl!ree Sesame Street and Muppet
albums f&lt;r tl!e children.
We've had a waiting list for The Women's Room because
tl!e suppliers, for unknown reasons, have .not yet shipped an
order we placed in August. And I know U!ere will be someone
who will want to hear Grease.
Right now I'm reaDy excited because the bookmobile is
getting a .new librarian- Jeanne Robbana. She and her son, T.
J. will be living witl! us until tl!ey find a place to live. Evidently
two-bedroom apartments must be scarce.
Thanks again for everytl!ing. We real:i enjoyed tl!e visit
and are looking f&lt;rward to seeing you and Tracy and the
children here sometime next swruner.

Steelers
romp 24-7
SAN FRANCISCO (UP!)Any notion U!at Pit!.'lburgh's
offense has gone into eclipse
has been dispeUed. And, as
for the Steelers' " Iron
Curtain" defense, it remains
impregnable.
Befoce a national television
audience Monday night, the
Steelers became tl!e NFL's
winningest team at 11-2 by
pounding the San Francisco
49ers into submission, 24-7.
Their recently criticized offense, which could muster
only a pair touchdowns in
tl!eir last two games, showed
improvement as quarterback
Terry Bradshaw tl!rew tl!ree
touchdown passes - 23 and 25
yards to Lynn Swann in the
second quarter and an 11yarder to John Stallworth
late in UJe game - and J:(oy
Gerela added an opening
period field goal to account
for the points.
True, the aUack faltered
badly in tl!e second half, but
tl!at was witl! Franco Harris
sitting out most of U!e game
with a not-so&lt;1erious pinched
nerve in his left arm.
Harrill, a I,OOO.yard rusher
for live of his six NFL
seasons, carried U!e baU 12
times for 61 yards in U!e first
hall to raise his season total
to 907.
Bradshaw completed 13 of
21 passes fa- 195 yards. His
TD
· passes,
three
incidentally, put him in the
Pittsburgh record book with
22 fer tl!e season.
Defensively, U!e Steelers
were indeed impressive. In
fact, good enough for Coach
O&gt;Uck Noll to consider the
victory a whitewash .
' 'As far as I'm concerned, it

1

lit~e m ore than usual,". he '

sa &gt;d.. " We pretty much
accomplished everything we
worked on"this week.''
And
Swann,
who
e mbarrassed
San
Francisco's left cornerback
Vern Roberson on both TD
catches , wasn 't about to pinpoint a · glaring weakness in
the 49ers ' secondary. " There

wasn 't any set plan to pick on
anyone person,'' hesaid. ''He
just happened to be there. It's

my opinion tl!at he's still
adjusting to a starting
role."

Three days ago, tl!e 49ers
waived Anthony Leonard,
who was blamed fa- the
team's last second loss to Los
· Angeles last week.

had terrible field position
because of fumbles and

usual, the guys came

POLLY'S PROBLEM .
DEAR POLLY - I would
surely like to know what will
dissolve burned oil that has
accwnulated on the outside of
frying pans and electric corn
poppers. I have tried several
products and they help a lillie
but take a lot of time and rubbing. I would like to use
something that will · cut
through it quickly. -IRMA
DEAR IRMA - I realize
that to do it quickly is what
we are all looking for today,
but !hal is not always possi·
ble. You might try sprinkling
baking soda over the burned
oil. let it stand for 10 minutes
or so, rub with a damp
sponge, rinse and dry . Baking
soda emulsifies grease as it
cleans.- POLLY
DEAR POL!. Y - I want to
tell Ruth the easy way I clean
burned-on food from pans.
Just spray the pan with oven
cleaner and let ii stand for a
few hours. This cleans it like
magic. -EVELYN .
DEAR POLLY .:. A dirty

clean. It must be the type of
oven that cleans with high
heat. The skillet will come out
beautifully clean but will
have to be re-seasoned.
I save the tops from cotton

worn out and use them as
wrist bands to wear while
washing walls and windows.
They keep the water from

I reach up over my head.

DEAR POLLY - When I
am preparing to freeze
severa l pieces of meat such
as pork chops, or meat I may
want to use as single servings, I put the pieces in my
freezer compartment until
they are frosted through.
Then I wrap them in' familysize packages. They do not

pieces can be removed if need

A
prepared by the American
Cancer Society, to help save
your life from cancer.
A factory worker writers :
' "What is our government
doing to protect people who
work with materials that may
cause cancer? "
ANSWERline: Given the
size of our Federal Govern·
ment, and the size of the
problem - some 700 new
chemical compounds are
created each year - it is no
surprise that different
agencies have different
responsibilities in this
matter. In 1970, the Oc·
cupational Safety and Health
Agency
(OSHA )
was
established wtthin the U. S.
Department of Labor. This
agency has the power to set
and enforce health and safety
standards in the workplace.
And in 1970, too, the National
Institute of Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH)
was established within the U.
S. Department of Health,
Education and Welfare to
conduct research and to
recommend new standards to
OSHA. The National Cancer
Institute (NCI), the Federal
Government's agency
devoted to cancer research,
makes its findings and
scientific expertise available
to NIOSH. The National
Institutes of Health (NIH)
' also is working on the
problem of job-related
ca ncer. There are two
aspects to this problem (1)
identificaiion of hazards
(2)
through research;
regulation and enforcement
of standards to protect
workers. Since we have so
many different kinds of in·
dustries, there also are highly
specialized agencies aimed at
protecting workers. For
example, the Mining En·
forcement and Safety Ad·
ministration (MESA) an
agency of the U. S. Depart·
ment of the Interior, sets
standards of safety and en·
forces them through in·
spection.
A reader explains: "Last
year's ·Great American.
Smokeout' prompted me to'
quit cigarettes for three
months. Thls time, I'd like-io
quit for good. Will there be
another .smokeout?' "
.ANSWERline : The
American Cancer Society's
"Great American Smokeout"
will be held on November 16,
1978 as a on&lt;Hlay special
event to convince people that
they can do without
cigarettes at least for 24
hours. Local ACS units will
provide further help through
smoking withdrawal clinics
and other means. You can
become involved in the
"Smokeout" as a volunteer.
If you need help in quitting,
why wait until November?
·Your local ACS unit is eager
to help. y0u nqw!

the lining of the body of the
uterus. Most cases of en·
dometrlal cancer occ ur
among women in the 50-64,year age group. Vaginal
discharge or bleeding are
early r.igns of endometrial
cancer which can be treated
successfully .when diagnosed
early enough. Your local
American Cancer Society
Unit l\lls a new pamphlet of
infofrnation about both kinds
of uterine cancer. It is
available free to the public.

A thought for the day:

President George .
Washington said, "The basis
of our political system Is the
right of people to make and
alter
their form
of
govenunent."

The World Today

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UP!) - It appears comedian George
Kirby , who once allegedly boasted that show business was a
good covedor narcotics dealing, will have a captive audience
for some years tD come.
Kirby, already appealing a Ill-year federal prison term for
selling narcotics, pleaded guilty In September to state charges
of selling cocaine and giving heroin to an undercover agent.

The deficit also contributes
to domestic inflation by
increasing the cost of imports
for American consumers
which also gave domestic
businessmen an opportunity
to raise their prices.
Carter has vowed tD trim
the deficit and administration
officials have optimistically
projected a substantial
reduction next year .
The
Commer c e
Department report said
imports rose by 0.1 percent
last month while exports fell
by 3.1 percent, the largest
decline since a 9 percent drop
in January.
Food exports fell by $106.9
million, mostly because of
declines in rice, . corn and
meat sales. Chemicals and
related products declined by
$108 million , the department
said .
The administration
launched
an
exportpromotion program two
months ago ID help American
businessmen find foreign
markets for their products.
On the import side, oil
purchases dropped by $125.7
mUlion from the September
level. However, several other
categories increased,
incl~ding food and machinery·
and transportation
equipment.
The main drawback to any
possible future improvement
in the trade ledger next year
is oil.

WASHINGTON (UPI ) The United States trade
deficit, one of the nation's
most trouble .s ome
international problems, grew
by $2.13 billion in October as
imports surged to a new
record, the government an·
nounced U&gt;day.
Americ.ans's sold $13.01 bil·
lion worth of products to their
trading partners last month
while buying a record $15.14
billion. The resulting $2.13
billion deficit was the largest
since July and considerably
above the average $1.65
billion deficit of the past two
months.
Oil imports, a principal
cause of the large string of
monthly deficits, totaled $3.49
billion last month, a drop
from September, but still
high by historical standards.
October w·as the 29th
· consecutive montll that the
U.S. trade ledger has ·been in
the red.
The size of the merchandise
trade deficit- $24.79 billion
during the first 10 months of
tllis year and $28.5 billion
·during 1977 - has caused the
United States some serious

PITISBURGH (UPI) Failure by U.S. authorities to
perform autopsies on the
Guyana mass death victims
will result in hundreds of
lawsuits; a medical expert
predicts.
Dr. Cyril Wecht , the
Allegheny County coroner,
said Tuesday the autopsies
should have heen carried out
to determine whether the
victims committed suicide or
were murdered .
"! predict many lawsuits
will be filed ," he said. "They
will be filed again st the
federal government, the state
of California and the Peoples
Temple."
He said the litig ations
likely would be brought by
relatives of the victims who
died in the jungles of Guyana
earlier this month.
Wecht said, as far as he
knows, no autopsies have .
been done by medical
authoriti es a t Dover Air
Force Base in Delaware,

where the bodies were
transported from Guyana .
"These people, the 900 plus
members of the Peoples
Temple who died in Guyana,
represent many pot ential
lawsuit s ·through their

will be a question of life
insuran ce poli cies . Some
in surers pay nothing for
suicides. I'm not predicting
the outcome of these potential
legal battles, but you bet that
there will be lawsuits."
Wecht said it also is
necessary to know from a
moral viewpoint how the
victim died.
" Feelings of survivors
from psycholog ical and
religious standpoints must be
taken into consideration , ~~ he
said . "These people have the
right to know. I'd like to know
if I had lost a member of my
family , whether he was
murdered or committed
suicide .
"They (the federal government) ma y cha nge their
mind now. But it is too late .
Once you embalm, you
destroy tile ability to detect
cyanide. The tests are made
much more complex, much

meaningful scientifically.
