By The Associated Press Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher is expected to decide within the next 48 hours whether to abandon U.N. efforts to solve the Falkland Islands crisis and order a British invasion, Britains domestic news agency said today.

Unless there is an unexpected breakthrou^ at the United Nations ... the invasion now appears certain, the Press Association said.

On Sunday, Britains defense minister said Argentina had a week to reach a settlement at the United Nations or face an invasion of the South Atlantic islands by troops aboard the Royal Navy fleet of 82-plus ships.

. Press Association said Mrs. Thatcher and her advisers are convinced that Argentina will never agree to withdraw its forces from the Falklands until Britain agrees to

surrender sovereignty over the islands. Bbitain has refused to discuss sovereignty as a precondition for withdrawal.

The news agency did not identify sources for the report by political and defense correspondents. But they are regularly briefed by Defense Ministry, Foreign Office and other government officials on a non-attributable basis.

The Argentines are acting like someone playing a game of tennis and giving a precondition before the game that it is being played on the understanding that they win, Britains U N. Ambassador Anthony Parsons told reporters at Londons Heathrow airport today.

bargaining at the United Nations.

Parsons was recalled over the weekend to brief Mrs. Thatcher and her War Cabinet. British press reports said Parsons was instructed to give Argentina another 48 hours to reach agreement. After that, the papers said, Mrs. Thatcher would give British fleet commander Rear Adm. John Woodward, the go-ahead to retake the Falklands.

Britain tightened its blockade Sunday with air raids on the Stanley airfield and two Argentine sh^s, forcing the crew of one to abandon it.

evening meeting to decide.

In Buenos Aires, the U.S. Embassy strongly denied Ambassador Harry W. Schlaudeman was consorting with government dissidents in what newspapers called an effort to destabilize the ruling junta. The press accusations were seen as further indications of Argentine anger over U.S. support for the British.

Military sources reported today that Britain planned to step up its attacks on Argentine-held airfilds, radar installations and communications facilities on the islands in advance of an

It is not an acceptable basis to start a game and it is not an acceptable way to start negotiations. We should not prejudge the outcome of the talks, Parsons said before boarding a Concorde flight back to New York to resume

In Luxembourg, Britain pressured its European Economic Community partners to renew the one-month boycott of Argentine goods scheduled to expire tonight, warning that a show of weakness would encourage Argentina to stall a negotiated settlement. The 10-member bloc scheduled an

Argentina accused Britain of mounting Indiscriminate attacks on unarmed freighters carrying food, medicine and fuel to the people of the Faljdands and said it would take appropriate steps to protect the residents legitimate limits.

Nazi-Smuggiing

Probe Requested

By MADELYN MILLER Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., has called for a congressional investigation into reports that State Department officials secretly smuggled hundreds of Nazi war criminals into the United

States in exchange for Soviet intelligence information.

Frank, a member of the House subcommittee on investigations, called the reported Nazi recruitment operation the most appalling mixture of moral insensitivity and incompetence I have seen.

Baffle Is Over; No Safisfacfion

By The Associated Press

Although North Carolina and the federal government have ended their battle over over the states redistricting plans, some counties are far from satisfied with the negotiated settlement.

While new congressional and legislative districts have traditionally been forged along county lines, the General Assembly broke with tradition in cutting Watauga, Stokes, Alexander and Iredell counties along township lines.

Officials in some cwmties still bitterly oppose the divisions.

Alexander and Iredell were divided into three districts while Wataga and Stokes were each split into two districts. Alexander was perhaps the hardest hit.

If Alexander doesnt complain, nobody has room to complain, said Mildred Mullis, county elections supervisor, adding that no one from the county filed for any of the legislative races.

Weve just been eliminated, she said. Its the most ridiculous thing Ive ever seen. Theres no need for us to even have an election. The sad part is people dont even realize what theyve gotten into. The legislature must be up to someting to split us up like this.

In Alexander County, Millers Township was separated from the rest of the county to join three townships in Catawba County and five in Iredell County in what is now the 43rd House District.

I feel that were even more isolated now, said T. Wayne Payne, a farmer who served on the county board of elections for 10 years. Its like weve been shut off, and Im telling you it hurts.

State Rep. C..Robert Brawley Jr., a Mooresville Republican who is seeking re-election, said because of the twisted configuration of the 43rd District, he sees only two ways for a candidate to win.

Not having one major media source reaching through all three area, its going to either take a lot of money or a lot of shaking hands, he said. With five children to feed, Ill be shaking hands.

Instead of people thinking theyve lost their identity, think of the alternative of a huge, sprawling, three-member district and what assurance would an area have of feeling its interest represented, said Jerry F. Cohen, director of the legislatures Division of Bill Drafting.

Its causing a lot of hubbub and furor because its a change, but its a change in mind, not in county government, Cohen said.

MONUMENT SHOULD BE MOVED Theres a monument in front of the old Pitt County Fairgrounds that is dedicated to the veterans of World Wars from Pitt County. Until recently it was covered up by commercial sale signs. I think that monument should be moved to a more appropriate place now that the old fairgrounds is no longer for public use. W.S.

' Norman Wilkerson, vice president of the Pitt County American Legion Agricultural Fair Association, said the monument will be moved to the new Pitt County Fairgrounds soon, that arrangements are already underway.

Frank said Sunday that he was informed of the purported clandestine program by John Loftus, a former prosecutor with the Justice Departments Office of Special Investigation, the unit responsible for ferreting out war criminals.

Loftus, appearing on the CBS-TV program 60 Minutes Sunday, charged the smuggling program was run by the State Departments Office of Policy Coordination.

More than 300 Nazi war criminals still live in the United States and some of them work for the government, Loftus said.

The FBI, the Army and the State Department were all involved in enlisting Nazi help to spy on the Soviets in exchange for American citizenship and jobs, Loftus said.

They knew that the entire Nazi government of Byelorussia, the president, the vice presidents, cabinet ministers, governors and mayors, police chiefs were all living in America, Loftus said. The FBI, Army Counter Intelligence, Army Foreign Intelligence, the Department of State they knew and recruited them because they were Nazis.

Loftus said that classified information indicated that a number of these pro^ams were approved at the highest level.

Justice Department spokesman Dean St. Dennis said Sunday that the department is aware of the allegations and is looking into them, but would not elaborate.

State Department spokeswoman Carolyn Johnson on Sunday declined to comment on Loftus charges. Spokesmen for the FBI and the Army both said they had no information on the report.

The State Department began recruiting Nazis for espionage work shortly after World War II, Loftus said, in a program run by the late Frank Wisner, the postwar chief of operations for the CIA.

The alleged espionage program was a failure, Loftus said.'Tt was worse than a botch, he said. Many of the Byelorussians were later identified as having been double agents.

The purported clandestine recruitment contravened the orders of Presidents Roosevelt and Truman. '

We had one unit of the government out trying to prosecute the Nazis and other units of. the government trying to secret the information. We later established that the files pertaining to the Nazi immigration had been withheld from Congress, from the courts, from the CIA and from the local agents of the Immigration Service, Loftus said.

12-Year-Old Boy Gets

His Degree At College

By JOHN KENNEDY Associated Press Writer

BOISE, Idaho (AP) - The father of a shy, solemn 12-year-old who became the youngest college graduate in U.S. history says his two other children show promise of matching their brothers academic feats.

Jay Luo, son of immigrants from Taiwan, joined about 1,460 other Boise State University students at graduation ceremonies Sunday. The young Luo earned a degree in mathematics.

He will enter graduate school at Stanford University as early as this summer, says his father, ZongLuo.

The elder Luo, who plans take his family to California to be with Jay, told reporters at a news conference that his 9-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son already show academic talents.

He said Kay studies in a program for talented and gifted children and her teachers say she needs more attention.

Bobby, the youngest Luo, may be the smartest of the lot, said the father. He has every chance of chalenging Jay, he said.

The elder Luo is an engineer for a computer comphny. His wife, Judy, graduated at the top of her class at Providence College, he said.

The two youngest Luos will have to work

hard to match brother Jay, who spent less than three years in college and skipped high school and junior high entirely. He maintained a B-plus average while carrying more than a full college class schedule.

William Mech, the boys adviser and a past president of the National Collegiate Honors Council, helped Luo enroll in part-time classes at age 9.

Jay was obviously-nervous at the news conference before the ceremony, sweating and slumping down in his chair while he gave short responses to reporters questions.

The family had prohibited interviews before graduation, channeling inquiries through school officials.

Mech said he is attempting to compile the experiences of those who have taught academically gifted children to provide future prodigies with advice.

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the youngest college graduate in the United States before Luo was Merrill K. Wolf of Qeveland, who got his degree in music from Yale University in September 1945 in the month of his 14th birthday. The book lists the youngest graduate as William Thomson, later Lord Kelvin, who graduated from Glasgow (Scotland) University in November 1834 at the age of 10.

ByROBERTFURLOW Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -Factory use by U.S. manufacturers fell to 71.1 percent of capacity in April, matching the lowest rate since^ the severe 1974-75 recession, the Federal Reserve Board ^ reported today.

The new figures, coupled with other reports showing industrial production dropping and unemployment rising in April, indicated strongly that the recession was still worsening as the spring quarter got underway.

The new report said manufacturers had also operated at 71.1 percent of capacity in January, but many economists believe that figure was held down by unusually bad weather.

The last time the rate was lower was in May 1975, when it was at 70.3 percent.

On a more hopeful note, the new Fed report said that during March and April the manufacturing and materials operating rates declined less rapidly than they did from September 1981 through January 1982.

The new drop of 0.4 percentage point compared with declines of one percentage point or more in September, October. November, December and January. The operating rate had risen to 72.1 percent of capacity in February - a gain that was possibly overstated in comparison with Januarys big weather-related drop before declining to 71.5 percent in March,

End A Lawsuit

By Ex-Soldier

Supreme Court Guards

WASHINGTON (AP) -The Supreme Court today ended a lawsuit filed by an ex-soldier who said he contracted cancer because he was forced to witness an atomic bohib test blast at close range 19 years ago.

The court, without comment, let stand a ruling that Stanley Jaffee cannot sue his former Army superiors and other government officials for $13 million.

Jaffee, of River Edge, N.J^ said he was one of a number of servicemen forced to witness the outdoor explosion at Camp Desert Rock in Nevada in 1953.

ees

In late 1980, former Attorney General Benjamin CivUetti received a report on the reported operation from Allan J. Ryan Jr., who headed the Justice D^art-ment unit, Loftus said.

Ryan could not be reached at home Sunday night fof comment.

Frank said he hoped Congress would investigate the matter.

WASHINGTON (AP) -The Washington Post cannot obtain government information which the State Department had said could have jeopardized, if published, the safety of two Iranian officials, the Supreme Court ruled today.

By a unanimous vote, the justices refused to let the newspaper obtain official ^vernment documents to find out whether the two officials are U.S. citizens.

Since the case reached^the Supreme Court, it has lost much of its impact because of the disclosure that one of the officials now lives in Michigan and the other is

indeed a U.S. citizen.

In an opinion by Justice William H. Rehnquist, the high court ruled that the official government information can be Withheld despite the Freedom of Information Act, a federal law aimed at curbing government secrecy.

In September 1979, two months before the American hostages were seized in Tehran, the Post filed a request seeking information telling whether Ibrahim Yazdi and Ali Behzadnia held valid U.S. passports and thus were U.S. citizens.

Yazdi left his position as an Iranian foreign minister

shortly after the takeover of the American embassy in Tehran. He subsequently was elected to the Iranian Revolutionary Parliament.

These servicemen were subject to military discipline, and the government has conceded that they Were compelled to attend the atomic blast and were not volunteers, Jaffees lawyers said.

Behzadnia had been a senior officer in the Iranian Ministry of National Guidance. Government lawyers said of the Posts request that disclosure of such in-formtion, if it exists, (likely) would residt in physical harm to the two men.

The lawyers added:

At the test site itself, the soldiers were exposed to massive doses of dangerous radiation when the atomic

bomb was exploded only 2,000 or 3,000 yards away from where they were ordered to stand.

They were provided with no protective devices or clothing to shield them from the bombs harmful radiation. Thereafter, they were exposed to additional radiation w'hen they were immediately ordered to leave their trenches and march toward the very' site of the atomic explosion itself,

Jaffee contended that his superiors were aware of the risks involved.

The former enlisted man contracted breast cancer in Jaffees lawyers said after performing sur-doctors determined That his cancer had spread and was inoperable. He is now undergoing chemotherapy.

Jaffee and his wife filed a lawsuit against more than a dozen present and former Army officers. Department of Defense employees, and officials of what was then the Atomic Energy Commission.

Summer Session Starts

Lower courts ruled that the information the Post sought did not fall .within an exemption to theFreedom of Information Act and therefore had to be released.

Registration for students, undergraduates and graduates planning to attend the first summer session at East Carolina University is being held today on the ECU campus.

Classes for the first summer session begin tomorrow, with the session to end June 22, date of final exams.

An estimate of the number expected to register for the first summer session was not available this morning.

Week Of Stormy Budget Fights Seen For Senate

By CLIFF HAAS Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -Divisions within the ranks of both Republicans and Democrats promise stormy fights on Capitol Hill this week as the 1983 budget is taken up by the full Senate and House.

The Republican-controlled Senate acts first, resuming consideration today of a

$779.1 billion 1983 budget blueprint drafted hy the GOP majority on the Senate Budget Committee and embraced by President Reagan. It includes a controversial provision for $40 billion in unspecified savings from the Social Security system over three years.

A $780.5 billion package fashioned by the Democratic

majority on the House Budget Committee goes to the full House on Friday. It leaves Social Security untouched and calls for $52 billion more in taxes and $25 billion less in military spending than the Senate plan over three years.

Both plans project 1983 deficits of just over $100 billion

Dogwoods Suffer From Scale Insects Plague

Dogwood trees in eastern North Carolina are suffering from a heavy infestation of scale insects this year, according to Sam Uzzell, Pitt extension agent.

Scale insects can attack many different types of plants but the treatment and control is similar, he explained. Dogwoods are afflicted with two types of scales, he added. A cottony scale on the underside of the leaves and aften a

Two Requests Are On Agenda

Two requests for rezoning are on the agenda for Tuesdays 7:30 p.m. meeting of the Greenville Planning and Zoning Commission at city hall.

The requests were submitted by; Eula G. Cannon to rezone two acres at 956 E. 10th St. from R-9 (residential) to office and institutional; and by Judson H, Blount Jr. to rezone 11.096 acres located north of Airport Road, east of Highway 11/13, south of Gum Road, and adjacent to the airport and the National Guard Armory, from unoffensive industry to highway commercial.

The planning board will also consider an ordinance amendment to the City Code regarding changing of street names, and review the administrative portion of the proposed Zoning Ordinance.

small scale on twigs and branches.

Trees or perennial plants with scales appear stunted with distorted leaves, explained the farm agent. Often a blackening of the leaves or twigs occurs also, due to sooty mold which results from the feeding of the scales on the plant sap and the excretion of honeydew, a sugary substance that drips on lower leaves and branches. This honeydew, he said, allows the growth of mildews and molds in it which form a blackish appearance.

Spraying scale insects must be done so as to get them when the young crawlers are moving around, explained Uzzell. The adult scale insects are the ones you notice first and are covered with a waxy

AGRICULTURE MISSION BANGKOK, ThaUand (AP) A seven-member team of American agriculture experts began a 12-day tour of discussions and field trips today in Thailand, the U.S. Embassy announced.

In remarks prepared for delivery on the Senate floor today, Senate Budget Committee (^airman Pete V. Domenici, R-N.M., told his colleagues that the elec-tion-year decisions he is asking them to make are unpleasant but, nonetheless, must be made.

You cannot hide from the precarious nature of our national economy now and the prospects for even more serious problems in the future, unless we act boldly, Domenici said.

Domenici also told senators they cannot hide from the impending bankruptcy of Social Security, adding that in order to buy the good things this Congress wants to buy for America, we must raise taxes during the next three years.

protective coating that they secrete after settling into a feeding site.

Once the eggs laid underneath the scales begin to hatch and the crawlers begin to move around, spray with a mixture of one gallon water, five tablesspoons summer oil (Volck oil) and two teaspoons malathion, said,Uzzell. He recommended spraying the entire tree thoroughly and said two sprays may be necessary in order to kill all the crawlers.

To determine when the crawlers are moving, a clear plastic bag can be placed around an Infested twig in the shade and observed for a few weeks, noted the farm agent. When the tiny crawlers are active they can be seen on the insides of the bag and can be assumed to be moving on the rest of the tree. May 15-June 15 is a good time for spraying, he added.

Uzzell cautioned that label instructions should be following carefully before applying any pesticides and recommended spraying in the evening rather than the morning.

LEWISTON, N.C. (AP) .-A tip provided by a woman who spotted an unfamiliar pickup truck parked by-a warehouse complex as she was walking her dog in the this Bertie County town led to the arrest of three men on charges of conspiracy to bum the warehouses.

The warehouses, owned by state Sen. J.J. Monk Harrington, were destroyed by fire that day. Three men, including state Rep. G. Ronald Taylor of Bladen, were arrested more than two weeks after the woman contacted the Bertie County Sheriffs Department.

The woman,, who was not identified, used a little jingle to help her memorize the license number of the truck. She also gave authorities a description of the vehicle and its occupants.

If we didnt have that we would not have had anything, said Lewiston Police Chief Charles E. Jenkins.

Jenkins said the womans clues led State Bureau of Investigation more than 100 miles away.

Also arrested on multiple charges of conspiracy and soliciting in the incident were Sandy White Jr., 46, and Graham Franklin Bridgers, 43, both of Clarkton.

White is a former tobacco farm manager and tobacco warehouse worker for Lt. Gov. James C- Green. Green said Sunday that White worked for him about five or six years ago.

Solar Fraction

Greenvilles solar fraction calculated by the department of physics of East Carolina University was 76 yesterday, which means that a solar water heater could have provided 76 percent of your hot water.

Senate GOP leaders are facing an uphill struggle in gaining acceptance of the outline drawn up by the Senate budget writers.

While Republicans are pushing for savings in the politically popular Social Security program. Senate Democrats are' demanding bigger tax increases than the $95 billion over three years that the president and GOP leaders are willing to approve.

Senate Republican leaders insist that the $40 billion in Social Security savings spread over three years is the minimum required to maintain the solvency of the pension system.

But outnumbered Democrats, and at least eight Republicans - including sbc running for re-election have served notice they will attempt to knock the $40 billion provision from the bill, raising the prospect of a bitter floor fight.

We do not believe Congress should require major changes in the Social Security system in the context of a debate about the budget, said Sen. John Chafee, R-R.I., a leader of the move by dissident Republicans to drop the Social Security issue this year.

In addition, many Senate Democrats and a few Republicans will be offering amendments to increase the $22 billion cutback in Reagans defense buildup over three years, to increase spending for Medicare and Medicaid, student loans and 'aid to disadvantaged students. A Democratic proposal for an anti-recession jobs program also is being drafted.

In the House, where all members will face voters in November, Republicans also are reluctant to tamper with Social Security before the election.

The Social Security issue is clouding the whole budget process, House Republican

L(X:AL ELECTIONS MANILA, Philippines (AP) Filipinos vote today in local council elections expected to strengthen the grassroots base of President Ferdinand E. Marcos, who has been in power for 16 years.

Whip Trent Lott of Mississippi said Sunday. Its been jumped on and politicized in the most fallacious manner ... and it makes it almost impossible to deal with the budget as the budget itself.

Lott, interviewed wi NBCs Meet the Press, disag^ with his Senate Republican colleagues on the ur^ncy of Social Securitys financial problems and said (ingress does not need to act on them before the elections.

We can still act this fall or early next year and it will be in time to deal with the problems that are involved in their insolvency, he said.

Meanwhile, majority Democrats are facing challenges from within their ranks aver the budget outline that House Budget Committee Chairman James R. Jones. D-Okla., is bringing to

the floor.

Liberal Democrats have served notice that they will draft an alternative package in iH^ of restoring more to domestic spending and cutting more from defense ending than under Jones package. At the same time, conservative Democrats have said they will work with Republican leaders, as they did last year, to find a plan more to their liking.

In the middle are the

House members who have. -yet to decide what they want todo.

With all of the undecideds in the House, theres not a majority to support anything, Jones said.

- After waiting for three months, 1 asked Jack s mother for her guest list and she said there was plenty of time. Finally 1 told her that 1 could afford to have no more than 150 at the reception, which meant 75 from her side and 75 from ours.

Well, the invitations are ready to be mailed, the wedding is eight weeks away and Jacks mother now informs me that she must invite 85 guests or a lot of people will never speak to her again.

What can 1 do? 1 hate to start my marriage off with bad feelings between Jacks mother and me, but all I can afford is 75 from her side. Also, we arei short 10 wedding invitations and its too late to order any more. Please help me.

: BITING MY TONGUE

DEAR BITING: Tell your inother-in-Iaw that if she needs 10 extra guests she will have to pay for them. And if youre short 10 wedding invitations and its too late to re-order, 10 guests (on Jacks side) will have to settle for handwritten invitations or a telephone call.

DEAR ABBY: Our politicians toss the term billions of Jollars around so casually that it might interest your readers to know how much a billion dollars really is. To ' illustrate:

A man gave his wife a million dollars and told her to spend $1000 every day and come hack when she ran out of money. She did so, and returned, broke, after about three years.

He then gave her a billion dollars. After spending $1000 a day, she returned after about 2,740 years!

FELIX IN LA.

DEAR FELIX: Thanks for explaining in understandable terms how much a billion dollars really is.

Now let me explain it in terms of todays economy: Lets say Mohammed Khalid Ibn Jamal (not his real name) gave his wife a billion dollars and told her to go shopping on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and buy whatever she wanted. She started on Monday and came back on Friday. Broke.

CONFIDENTIAL TO TEARS ON MY PILLOW IN CLEARWATER, FLA.: Regret is the cancer of life. Although its too late for you to give your own mother pleasure, others can profit by your sins of omission. There are nursing homes filled with elderly people who would so enjoy a little regular attention. Drop in with a few flowers from your garden, magazines you would have thrown away, some homemade goodies, etc. One day a week take one or two or as many as you can for a little ride. Bring the children along on occasion. Old folks love children.

Do this, at first, in reparation, and in time it will become a labor of love. True, of course, we can only have one mother, but in the family of God we are all one: He loves us, he forgives us.

Turning On Taiwan?

A GRIM ANSWER IN THE PLACE OF REASON!

Recent Chinese diplomacy has been marked by a lot of talk about U.S. arms sales to Taiwan as though that was a major obstacle to any ties of friendship between Peking and Washington. China misses few occasion to convey that theme.

The sale of mostly replacement parts to Taiwan and the possibility of future arms sales would appear to be very much on their minds; so much so they warn Sino-American friendship is at stake.

Or is that what they want us to think? One can never be too sure about pronouncements of a communist leadership.

Friendship and mutual trust are valued things in this world. Mavbe

they are testing the value American friendship. After all, we have looked on the Chinese who fled to Taiwan as friends since before World War II. Extending an olive branch to Peking was of recent vintage. China cannot really fear a military threat from tiny Taiwan, but being realists they could want to test the reliability of American friendship. If we were to turn our backs on Taiw'an, would China have any feeling of security in being friends of the U.S.?

We can visualize future benefits in Sino-American friendship, but it would be of uncertain value if American alliances are viewed as subject to rupture as a result of veiled threats or future payoffs.

No New Money?

Bottoming-Out Watch

By FAULT, OCONNOR

RALEIGH - Gov. Jim Hunt may be out the extra $20 million he planned on having for the states Highway Fund next year.

When Hunt asked the Legislature to bail out the troubled Hi^way Fund last year, he didnt get everything he wanted. The Legislature approved a 3-cent gasoline tax increase and increases in vehicle registration fees. But the Senate refused to move on a House-passed bill to increase alcohol taxes and Hunts proposals to implement taxes on mining operations and vacation lodging fizzled. At the end of the 1981 session, however, legislative leaders told Hunt theyd get him an extra $20 million this year. The Senate even passed a resolution saying theyd give the question of additional highway funding a top priority this June.

Hunt wants to direct the sales taxes collected from purchases of auto-related items which now go to the General Fund - into the Highway Fund. In the 1981-83 budget bill, the Legislature said this couldnt be done until a way was found to make up money lost to the General Fund. That would mean a tax increase.

But in interviews over the past several weeks, several powerful members of the Legislature say they dont see any way Hunt will get any new money when the Legislature re-convenes in June. House Speaaker Liston Ramsey and Senate President Pro Tern Craig Lawing say they cant imagine passage of any tax increase this June not with the economy the way it is and a

primary scheduled for June 29. ' '

With the General Fund budget so tight now, there appears to be, little chance the Legislature would transfer any money to highways, either. Hunt is scraping around .for every penny he can find to keep state employee salaries at their current level and still keep the budget in balance. So he isnt likely to even suggest a transfer out of the

committee studying DOTS operations. Total cost was $24.7 million. Add to that. Rose said, $13 million worth of items on this years budget that are not funded for 1982-83. In all, DOT wants $37.7 million, more than it is currently budgeted.

Now the good news. Gas tax collections were higher than anticipated this year. And by cutting the number of budgeted jobs, DOT has saved some money. In all, DOT has about $20 million of that $37 million.

If there is no tax increase, the Legislature will have to cut $17 million. The

All the President's men keep saying the recession will bottom out very soon. It is an act of faith with them that, if the people would just have patience, Mr. Reagans economic plans will work. I was skeptical until I spoke to one of Reagans advisers. He was in a deep pit and I leaned over the edge and yelled down to him, What do you see?

It seems to be bottoming out, he yelled up.

How do you know?

I can see a light at the end of the tunnel.

What do they indicate? Unemployment is going up, which means that inflation is going down. One infla

Still, Hunt says he expects to get the road money. We were promised wed get the money so weve been leaving it up the the le^slative leadership to find it. Hunt says he doesnt know all their options but added that failure to raise the money means well have to cut some very important projects.

Other Editors Say Progress For State

(The Henderson Dispatch)

Another academic milestone has been attained at East Carolina University, and university authorities are proud of the achievement. Their pride is indeed justified.

The masters degree program in the East Carolina School of Nursing has been awarded full accreditation for six years by the National League for Nursing, ^

The masters program in nursing at the Greenville institution is the only such program in Eastern N.C. and currently has 130 students enrolled.

With accreditation of the masters program, all the professional nursing education programs offered by East Carolinas School of Nursing are now accredited at both the state and national levels, according to Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Robert M. Maier.

The school also offers a generic baccalaureate degree program in nursing with a curriculum track for registered nurses returning for the bachelor of'science degree. Full- and part-time study is offered, and most classes and clinical experience are available in late afternoons and evenings to accommodate working nurses.

A somewhate similar achievement by the School of Nursing at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro was the subject of comments in this space several days ago. The Greensboro school had just been reaccredited for another five years by the N.C. Board of Nursing.

With a shortage of qualified registered nurses causing problems in some areas of the state and considering the troubles some schools have been experiencing with their academic programs,. it is heartening to learn of the acliievements of both the Greenville and Greensboro institutions. . .

Accreditation does not automatically follow when a school submits its application. To reach the goal requires cooperation, hard work and dedication with meticulous attention to complex requirements.

The fact that both universities reached the goals is a tribute to administrations, faculties and students.

ture. The new tax cuts will go into effect in July and then well see a complete change. Once we can clear out these inventories, the factories will start humming again, and with the new tax credits and business confidence, well get , the economy on its feet. Where is the economy now? I shouted.

Its stagnated down here in the muck and mire, because Congress wont pass the budget the President wants.

Can you see it?

I cant see it. But I can smell it, he yelled up. Its slippery as all get-out. What are you going to do about the deficits in the

budget?

We can live with them, providing there is an upturn in the economy, and the consumer gets back his confidence, and we have a good recovery in the second half of the year.

How do you know all those things if youre down there in the dark? I shouted.

We know what were doing. We didnt make this recession. Carter did. The only thing that has surprised us is how deep it is,

Isnt it politically dangerous for you to be down there so long?

Its no fun, because poor people keep falling on you all the time. But the President wants us to report when it bottoms out down here, and then he can go on television and announce it to the people.

He said something else but I couldnt hear it.

Are you all right? I shouted.

Finally he yelled up, Yeh, I just slipped another 10 feet down. We may have to shore up this place with some excise taxes and $40 billion in Social Security cuts.

A Rival For Jerry Brown

By ROWLAND EVANS

and ROBERT NOVAK

LOS ANGELES - Mayor Pete WUson of San Diego, heir to Californias moderate Republican tradition, was visibly displeased by what he heard at the end of a candidates night at Sportsmens Lodge in the San Fernando Valley.

Rep. Robert Doman, the fire-eating conservative in the seven-candidate Republican field to oppose (iov. Edmund G. Brown Jr. for the Senate, assailed Wilson on grounds that weve tried moderates against Jerry Brown, and they dont work. Wilson later grumbled that Doman had misrepresented his record on abortion. But had he not actually supported public funding of abortions as Doman claimed? Yes, he told us, but that was 1978. What happened since then? I changed my mind.

That Wilson has changed his mind about many things the last four years is interpreted by right-wing foes as a ploy for the Republican nomination. The tmth is less conspiratorial: The switch signifies rightward movement of the whole Republican spectrum. Pete Wilson, moderate of the 80s, sounds a lot like conservatives of the 70s a similarity beneficial to Wilson and possibly Republican prospects here and elsewhere this year.

Wilson cannot equal Dor: nan as a conservative ideologue and cannot match the free-enterprise innovations. of the presidents daughter, Maureen Reagan. Both are incomparably more dynamic candidates than the mayor. But empty treasuries doom Doman and Reagan in astate where the alternative to paid television is anonymity. The contest is essentially a two-man deadheat between Wilson and Rep. Barry Goldwater Jr.

That seems to break the rule that Republicans in the Earl Warren liberal mold no longer win California primaries, particularly against so famous a name as Goldwater. But Wilson has pulled even in the polls, reflecting not only a perception that he is better able to beat Brown but that there is not all that much ideological difference between him and Goldwater.

It was not always so. In 1976, Wilson traveled to New Hampshire to campaign against Ronald Reagan for president. In 1978, he opposed Proposition 13 while running fourth in the governors primary. (It has worked better than I thought, Wilson now says of the tax-cutting initiative.)

Wilsons early endorsement of President Reagan in 1980 has not erased his 1976 sin of joining what Dornan calls a lying untmth squad against Reagan. Such eminent Reaganites as State Senate minority leader Bill Campbell have neither forgiven nor forgotten. To

compensate, radio ads flaunt presidential brother Neil Reagans endorsement and television ads declare, The president needs him.

Those same TV spots depict Wilson as a shirt-sleeved mayor limiting crime and public-employee strikes. Be has abandoned the left to Rep. Pete McOoskey (running a poor third in the polls). The government shwild not be Americas growth industry, Wilson says on one TV spot. And when Im elected senator it wMit be. This shift is obviously dictated by political realities but also by what seems a genuine mid-life political correction by the 48-year-old Wilson. Experience is a pretty good teacher, he told us.

Wilson only occasionally displays the Republican moderates propensity to straddle issues (he opposed the House version of the Saudi Arabian AWACS deal, favored the only slightly different Senate version). Except for continued opposition to an antirabortion constitutional amendment, there is little about wilson today that would bother Jerry Falwell.

He opposes gun registration and the Kennedy-Hatfield nuclear freeze. He favors school prayer and the B-1 bomber. He would vote against big defense cuts and any change in the critical third year of the Reagan tax cut. Not merely coming-out for the balanced-budget constitutional amendment, he wants to stiffen it with a spending limitation.

Wilsons television spots explicitly claim he can wn (the one candidate Jerry Brown hopes he never has to run against) and impliqitly that Goldwater cant. The implicit will become explicit before the June 8 primary if Wilson uses anti-Goldwater ads now in the can. Still, he would have no chance for the 'nomination were it not for the fact that Earl Warrens legatee echoes the Barry Goldwater of 1964 as much as his own son.

All-Saver Sales Fail Forecast

By JIM LUTHER Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -Millions of Americans waited in line last October to buy the new All Savers Certificate, jumping at the chance to make a tax-free investment advertised as a boon to the economy.

But after that $32.6-billion start in 'October, monthly sales of All Savers plunged a low of $1.6 billion, in February. And latest figures from the Federal Reserve Board show that sales in October through March totaled $49.1 billion - far below the forecast.

Average monthly sales for the six months were $8.18 billion. But excluding October, sales have averaged $3.3 billion a month a rate that if sustained would result in less than $80 billion in total sales over the 15-month life of the program. Thats less than one-third the volume predicted by backers when All Savers was approved.

Ecorromists blame competition from liberalized tax--deferred Individual Retirement Accounts and the

brought tax-free interest oi 12.61 percent. In less than two months, the payoff dropped to 8.34 percent; it is back up to 9.87 percent starting today.

All Savers is attractive mainly to taxpayers in the 30-percent or higher brackets (single persons with taxable income above about. $15,000 and couples above $25,000). Those paying a lower rate of tax are better off with taxable investments.

A congressional economist, who asked not to be named, offered this explanation for All Saversproblems:

The program was written to lure the high-bracket saver, but then they put a limit on how much such a saver could invest. There just arent enough people in the 30-percent bracket or higher to buy the number of All Savers Certificates that. would be required to make the program a success.

An individual is limited to a one-time exemption for $1,000 of All Savers interest; a couple gets $2,000. Depending on the interest rate at the' time, that limits a persons investment to about

drop in AH Savers yields. Aiy.? >8,000 ($16,000 for a couple).

Liy.>f >8,1

All Savers Certificate f The Treasury Department purchased in early October had predicted Al) Savers

would cost the government $5.2 billion in lost taxes. That assumed $120 billion worth would be sold. The U.S. League of Savings Associations, which originated the plan, predicted^ billion of sales at a revenue loss of $4.1 billion.

The congressional Joint Committee on Taxation, in a forecast that now appears close to the mark, said sales would not top $65 billion, for a tax loss of $3.3 billion.

Congress approved All Savers principally to prop up the savings and loan industry, which was being squeezed by paying record-high interest to get funds while holding a portfolio of old low-rate mortgages. Helping the savings and loan industry would also yield dividends for the economy by creating a new pool of mortgage money. Congress contended.

The government now doubts either of those goals is being reached.

In a report last week, John E. Chapoton, assistant secretary of the treasury, wrote: We have seen no evidence that they (investments in All Savers) come from new saving, but merely represent money withdrawn from other

financial investments, prb-ably municipal bonds (because of their tax-exempt status) and passbook accounts in particular.

In other words, most people are not increasing their savings through All Savers but are just moving money from a taxable, lower-paying account to one yielding a higher, tax-free rate.

James Christian, chief economist for the U.S. League of Savings Association, says that organization is about to complete a study that may show some rather surprising figures in terms of pure savings effect and for the economy as a whole.

The study will show a direct connection between declining All Savers sal^ and action by federal regulators in removing the interest ceiling from a competing investment, 30-month small-saver certificates, Christian said. That action diverted $30 billion in All Savers money that would have gone to the savings and loan industry, he estimated.

As for any benefit to the homebuyers, none is visible, authorities say. The housing indus^ expects to start only 1 million homes in 1982 - the lowest on rernrrt

Tar Heel Republicans Setting Ambitious Goals

ByWIllIAMM. WELCH : Associled Press Writer : RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -Unbowed by national economic problems that could haunt their party, Republicans are setting some ambitious goals for the 1982 elections in North Carolina.

Richard Richards, the Republican National Committee chairman who visited the state to pump up party faithful last week, said he considers North Carolina fertile ground for the GOP this year - as much or more so than any southern state.

I dont believe theres a state in the South with greater opportunity for us than North Carolina, be said. I think this has to be as good a place in this party of the country as anywhere.Buchwald Col....

(Continued from page 4) money away from the people.

It sounds like youre between a rock and hard place. Can I throw you a rope for safety? '

No, if I ^t in trouble I have the Laffer curve to hold onto.

I yelled down something, but once again there was nothing but silence. Hoover, are you all right?

A voice came up from the dark: Yeh, I just hit a slight depression.

Are we in a depression? I screamed fearfully.

No, 1 thought I had stepped on a place that was bottoming out and I didnt see the hole. Im okay now. Im holding on to a price indicator which shows we are on very solid footing.

Thank God. No recession is worth the loss of a Reagan economist.

Why?

You do have some good prospects in the congressional races, he said. The attention will be focused on congressional races and the state legislature you havent got a Senate race, you havent got a gi^matorial race. Its something we can focus in on, put money in and additional time and effort in, and really get a big payoff for it.

Richards told state Republicans he and David Flaherty, the state party chairman, are negotiating now about which congressional races will get national party help.

In an interview, Richards said the GOP thinks it can win two, perhaps three congressional seats in North Carolina. Democrats now hold seven seats, after losing two incumbents in Ronald Reagans 1980 sweep.

We know enough down here that we think we can pick up two or three seats in North Carolina - realistically we can pick up a couple of seats here, he said.

Richards, like other party officials, shies from pointing in public to his targets. And, he says, districts targeted for extra help money - can change as the campaign develops.

But pressed to name where the GOP is most optimistic, Richards mentioned the 3rd, 4th and 5th districts.

The 3rd, a massive piece from the middle of N(th Carolinas coastal plain, has been considered a safe Democratic district held by Charles Whitley. GOP hopes there are pinned largely on the name of their ch^en^r - Eugene Red McDaniel, a former prisoner of war in North Vietnam who recently gained publicity for writing to former president Nbcon that he still regards Nixon has a personal hero.

The 4th, with liberal Chapel Hill, government-oriented Ralei^ and Republican-voting Randolph County, is held by Democrat Ike Andrews. Although the GOP has a primary, the GOP establishment candidate is William Cobey, the former UNC athletic director who is figm^ to have heavy-duty help from Sen. Jesse Helms organization, the National Congressional Oub.

The 5th is held by Democrat Steve Neal, a frequent GOP target, who barely won re-election in 1980 over Anne Bagnal. She and WaUace Vanhoy lead a four-person field of GOP challengers, but

Democrats believe theyve improved Neals standing with redistricting and that the GOPs best chance there - with Reagan on the ticket -came two years ap).

We can point to the third, fourth and fifth districts that look especially good to us, and as we get down the road some of the others may look better, he said.

Richards said the party will target 50 districts nationally, and that North Carolina v!^l have at least two of them.

If a district is targeted by the national party, it means the nominee will receive the maximum legal contribution the party can give - about $28,000. Moreover, it will mean assistance from the

party in strategy and tactics.

I think the most significant thing well do here really is a joint project on party building with the state party to b^d legislative seats, Richards said. "Voter identification, regis-tration^ get-out-the-vote campaigjis, all (tesigned to benefit diir state legislators.

Flaherty, who boasted last year that R^ublicans could capture state Senate this year, has retreated a bit from that prediction. He told

Republicans last week that the party still hopes to capture one chamber of the legislature, but said Republicans would be quite happy just to increase their numbers enou^ to make their votes significant \1ien joined with conservative Democrats.

The GOP wily holds 20 percent of the 120 state House and 50 state Senate seats now. The Senate has been the GOPs target because it means fewer seats are needed to control.

But with the close of filing last week, it is clear the

*GOPs task will be great. Of the 40 seats now held by Democrats, the GOP is conceding 16 - not even putting up a candidate. That means to control the Senate the GOP would have to hang on to its 10 and win 16 of 24 challenged Democrat seats quite a feat.EAST CAROLINA INSURANCE AGENCY, INC.

At Branch Banking and Trust, we believe that saving money is sound economic policy.

Weve maintained that simple

Dhilosophy even through times of ligh inflationwhen the popular

wisdom said spend, not save. And today, we believe saving makes more sense than ever.

Saving is the one way you can be sure of having the money you need for the things you want. And with some help from BB&T, you can protect your savings from inflation to a greater degree than you might have expected.

For some people, saving money means a savings account-andthats always a very good way to save.

BB&T also offers a number of alternatives to regular savings ac-counts-altematives that can earn you higher interest.

Consider, for example, our Certificatesof Deposit*, which allow you to choose a maturity from 30 days to 8 years and a corresponding interest rate on deposits as low as

$500. Or high-yield Money Market Certificates for deposits of $10,000 and more.**

With these and other savings plans, BB&T can help you put together a comprehensive savings program that will give you the best rate of return on your money and the kind of flexibility you need.

Study ConcentratlonOf Spotted Fever In NX.

GREENSBORO. N.C.,I .\P) - .Although aware of wty ticks canning Rocky Mount spotted fever congregate in North Carolinas Piedmont, scientists still dont know why the oganisim producing the deadly disease is found in some ticks but not others.

An organism called rickettsia rickeltsia neither a virus nor a bacteria is always found in affected individuals and is commonly believed to be carried by ticks, said Dr J N. Mac-Cormack, chief of the communicable disease section of the N C. Department of Human Resources.

.Although ticks are known to transmit the disease, rickettsia rickettsia was found in only one of the 2.000

Name Listed Among Dead

SOUTH P.ASADENA. Calif. (.AP) - Bob Barry, who heads a consulting and management engineering company. had a bit of a shock when he attended a reunion for alumni of South Pasadena High School.

Barry, class of '33, found his name on a bronze plaque to honor graduates who died in World War II

Just one of those mistakes. said Barry, not too perturbed.

The reunion had a more pleasant surprise for 94-year-old Emma Faye Munger Goldman. She was named homecoming queen at the festivities.

i never dreamed of such a thing, said Mrs. Goldman, a member of the schools first graduating class in 1907, now living in Phoenix, Ariz. We didnt even have homecoming In my day,

Mrs. Goldman was the only person out of her six-member class to attend, so, there was no competition, she stated modestly, a bouquet of red and white flowers on her lap.

"Im never going to be the same again, she said.

The reunion Saturday, attended by about 5,000 South Pasadena graduates, was the brainchild of -Mary Ida Phair, class of 38, who became the schools librarian in 1963. Graduates came from as far away as Indonesia to honor the old school, gossip and sing the fight song.

Pitt Employee New Treasurer

Pitt'S assistant county manager, Don Davenport, has been elected treasurer of the North Carolina Association of County Clerks to the Boards of County Commissioners.

Davenport, who is also clerk to the board and acting county planner, was elected to the post at the associations annual spring con-frence at Maggie Valley earlier this month.

A Creswell native, Davenport received his undergraduate degree in political science and sociology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1976 and a masters degree in public affairs management from N.C. State University in 1978, before becoming Pitts assistant county manager in January 1979.

ticks collected and studied in North Carolina.

The question is, why is it difficult to find the agent in an area like North Carolina* says Dr. Willy Burgdorfer, a tick specialist at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Rocky Mountain Laboratory in Hamilton, Mont.

Researchers are studying the Piedmont region in an effort to discover the biological and geographical origins of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, which strikes more often there than anywhere in the nation.

Of 1.165 cases of the disease reported across the nation last year, 301 were in North Carolina, where at least three victims died of the malady this year. Only seven deaths due to spotted fever were reported nationwide in 1981.

The reason the ticks congregate in parts of North Carolina is believed to stem from the preponderance of areas called transition zones in the state. Those areas lie between cultivated farms\ suburbs and small towns and

the denser vegetation of surrounding woods, said Dr. Dan Sonenshine, a biolo^t at Old Dominion University in Norfolk. Va.

Ticks live in the transition zones in dense, low vegetation such as honeysuckles, which provides cover for mice, rats and squirrels upon which the ticks first prey, he said. Dogs, which tend to forage along the edges of transition zones, are more likely to pick up the parasitic ticks there.

Sonenshines research is borne out by history. The first documented case of Rocky Mountain spotted fever was in those rqountains in 1932, when developers first began cutting a fresh swath through wooded areas.

The failure to find active forms of the organism outside human hosts has led some researchers to speculate that other forms may undergo a deadly "change once inside the human body, he said.

Nothing is known as yet that would support this speculation, Burgdorfer added.
