PACE 8 Elwood Call-Leader Thursday December 28, 1972 Deaths Funerals daily report Phase Three May See Some Changes years. Businessmen have argued that this base period is no longer realistic. More important, most observers concede that the rule encourages wasteful spending by companies who are bumping against their profit margin ceilings. The stubborn rise in food prices, spurred by heavy consumer demand and the fact that prices at the farm level are uncont rolled, has been the biggest headache for the economic controllers. Shult indicated the government would continue to explore ways to increase food supply, such as the recent decision to lift meat import quotas through 1973.

On the legislative side. Shultz said there was merit in asking Congress simply to extend the present stabilization act' one more year. Anything the administration expects to propose in the new control program could be carried out under provisions of the existing act. Shultz said Truman (Continued from Page 1 served under "Captain Harry" during World War I boomed a 21-gun salute. Many, mourners cried openly.

Those who grieved were of all generations. The very old. white-haired, leaned on canes. The very young, long-haired, stood tall and straight. Eight pallbearers carried the casket into the Truman Library lobby.

The casket was sealed permanently Tuesday, a few hours after Truman's battle against failing heart, kidneys and, lungs ended. Mrs. Truman, who made daily trips to Research Hospital during her husband's last three weeks, stayed at home and greeted Nixon and Johnson Wednesday. But as the cortege passed by the Truman home, a 17-room Victorian mansion built more than 100 years ago, she pulled open a single window shade and watched the casket of her husband pass. The Invited Guests Among the 220 guests invited to the private funeral in the small auditorium of the library were Truman's relatives, former White House advisers and friends, all of them a part of the Truman era.

A memorial service for Truman is planned in Washington Jan. 5 when national and world leaders will eulogize the 33rd president, whose decisions ended one war. put the United States in another one and marked the beginning of the nuclear age. President Nixon invited Mrs. Truman, the Truman's only daughter Margaret Daniel, and Mrs.

Daniel's family to stay in the Blair House for the Jan. 5 services at Washington's National Cathedral. The Trumans lived for a time in the Blair House while the White house was being remodeled in 1950. Economic Life Centers Around Airport Areas WASHINGTON (UPI) -Ad ministration officials indicate "Phase III" of President Nixon's economic program may see the dropping of rent controls next year and changes in the profit margin rule disliked by business. President Nixon has said he wants some form of continued stabilization authority when the present Economic Stabilization Act expires April 30.

and officials emphasized that Nixon will have the final word on the shape of the redesigned wage-price controls. The administration has been gathering suggestions from business, labor, consumers, congressmen and its own stabilization officials for the past two weeks. A sense of the thinking of most participants was revealed by the briefers. Herbert Stein, chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers, said prolonged rent controls have a "negative effect" on tenants as well as landlords. "We ought to be on the way out of the rent control Stein and Treasury Secretary George P.

Shultz also suggested that reducing coverage of the controls would improve the efficiency of the government stabilization program and eliminate essentially nonproductive paper work for many businesses. A senior official of the Cost of Living Council, who asked not to be identified, said the business profit margin rule "has got to change." This regulation, widely criticized in the business community, limits profit margins (profits as a percentage of sales) for companies who boost prices to the average of the best two of the last three fiscal KATHERINE (KATE) JONES Word has been recieved here of the death of a former Elwood woman.

LIFE STRIDE and HUG-TITE Pumps at MAHOUT'S Alexandria wmi Mill FE AEJEMHGIES tion lately has embarked on a nationwide study ot the economic importance of the airport to the local community. The program has been underway only a few months and it will take years to complete. It was begun in comparatively sparsely populated South Dakota but most surveys finished so far deal with the major cities. The South Dakota study was an eye opener! It revealed the presence of good airports had brought in factories that account for 12 per cent of all the manufacturing employment in South Dakota. Washington's National Airport was discovered to have 1.400 workers earning $78 million a year.

It was the third largest employer in Virginia at a single location. It generated $3 million in state and local taxes paid by its employees. Retail and service sales around the airport were $22 million a year and the greater part of Washington's half billion dollar a year convention business came through the airport. These figures look small compared with the $7 billion a year Kennedy. IGuardia and Newark airports generate for metropolitan New York.

The direct payroll alone is $1 billion for 78.000 workers. Airlines spend $2 billion a year on services and supplies at New York. The hotel and other tourist service sales come to another $1 billion. And this $4 billion generates another $3 billion of various kinds of business throughout the metropolitan area, the ATA calculated; (Continued from Page 1 over North Vietnam in the eight days ending Christmas Day. It also said B52s carried out 147 missions during the same period.

It did not report on raids carried out since Nixon ordered resumption of the bombing Tuesday after a 36-hour Christmas pause. The command also furnished a list of 68 "significant" targets hit so far in what Hanoi earlier described as the most fierce aerial bombardment of the war. In line with official policy. American military spokesmen did not give any details of the raids Wednesday. But reports from Hanoi.

Moscow and elsewhere said U.S. planes inflicted heavy damage on civilian and military targets. The official Hungarian news agency MTI reported a mass exodus from Hanoi in the wake of continued bombing. "Tens of thousands of inhabitants with every conceivable means of conveyance are fleeing from the operation scene of the new barbarous attacks." the MTI correspondent in Hanoi said. The U.S.

command said warplanes had struck railvards. shipyards, warehouses, vehicle repair shops, power plants, railroad bridges, military air bases, radar sites and other supply and maintenance targets. All were described as military. Hanoi Radio said it shot dow another American warplane. but gave no details.

It raised the total Hanoi claims downed since Dec. 18 to 66. WE WILL "December 26th NKW YORK (UPI) For a century the economic life of the average American community revolved around the railroad depot and the freight yard. Today it revolves around the airport to a far greater degree than is generally realized. The railway freight yard still is important but often as not the passenger depot is deserted most of the day.

Hut the airport is a bustling community that provides jobs, merchandise and service sales and pulses with vitality around the clock. In the larger metropolitan areas, the airport is surrounded by motels, restaurants, movie theaters, service businesses, and small to medium sized industries dependent in some way on aviation. There also are banks, supermarkets, customs brokers and other sophisticated businesses. The Air Transport Assoeia- weapons compared to the defenses of the Western European countries. Under the reductions which may be negotiated, a sizable number of U.S.

troops would be pulled back tp the United States. This would presumably please Sen. Mike Maasfield. D- who has been agitating for a reduction in the 300,000 troops which the United States maintains in Europe. But Soviet forces, at best, would be pulled back behind the Soviet borders which are only a few hundred miles from the center of Europe.

Policing Impossible It would be virtually impossible to police any force reduction agreement which the Russians might undertake. And it would be an illusion to think, the French are saying, that Soviet forces could not sweep across Europe in a well coordinated drive In the French thinking, the general guarantee of European peace still appears to be the American commitment symbolized by the 300.000 U.S. troops. With that force in Europe, the United States can hardly be indifferent to a deterioration in the politico-military situation. The French do not appear to feel there is any inconsistency in the fact that in the 1960s they oblige- NATO to move its European headquarters out of France to Brussels and required the departure of U.S.

forces which had been stationed in France France seems to appreciate the American contribution while at the same time feeling that without U.S. troops on its soil it has more independence in making its own defense decisions. U.S. diplomats acknowledge that the projected talks on force reductions are bound to be extremely complicated because of the different weapons used by the Atlantic Alliance and its Communist opponents. But with pressure emanating from Congress, the Nixon administration feels it is politically expedient to reduce "American forces in RTrope.

WASHINGTON (UPI) As the United States prepares for talks on military reductions in Europe, one of its oldest allies. France, is highly skeptical that any good can come from such discussions. France will not be participating in the talks among the United States, the Soviet Union and their allies, expected to begin in Geneva Jan.

31. France, while still a member of NATO, has opted out of the military activities of the Atlantic alliance. But the government in Paris has strong opinions which it has not propounded very loudly so far. The French thinking runs along these lines: The strategic arms limitation treaty (SALT) reached between the United States and the Soviet Union at the Moscow summit meeting last May is a virtual guarantee that the two countries will not engage in war with strategic-nuclear weapons. The agreement has rekindled the hopes of diplomats for a substantial detente in Europe This hope is being further fired by the projected talks in Geneva on mutual and balanced force reductions (which diplomats call MBFR).
