U.S. vetoes UN resolution
UNITED NATIONS—The United States vetoed yesterday a Security Council resolution endorsing a report that asks Israel to withdraw from all occupied Arab territory.
certification by the state to issue Albert W. Shereer Jr. said the resolution was "totally devoid of balance," stressing the right that residents one party to the Middle East dispute be represented in the case.
The vote in the 15-nation council was 10-1 with Britain, France, Italy and Sweden abstaining.
It was the 14th U.S. veto in the council and the second in less than a week. Last Wednesday, the United States vowed Angola's application for UN membership.
Wednesday, the United States vetoed Angola's application for UN membership. Under the vetoed Israeli-Arab resolution, sponsored by Guyana, Pakistan, Panama and Tanzania, the council would have taken note of a report by a 20-nation Palestine Rights Committee that was dominated by Third World countries.
office search constitutional
WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled yesterday that authorities may constitutionally search a person's office, seize his business records and use them
The court said, in its 7-2 decision, that this does not require the person to give testimony against himself because he is "not required to aid" in obtaining the evidence.
The dissenters said the decision made a hollow guarantee of the constitutional promise that "no person" shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witch.
Economy growing steadily
WASHINGTON - The government index that foreshadows developments in the economy climbed by the biggest margin in 10 months during May, signaling steady growth.
The Commerce Department said yesterday the composite index of leading indicators rose 1.4 per cent in May, compared to seventenals of 1 per cent rise in the previous year.
The index is composed of a dozen individual statistics selected for their ability to move in advance of general economic trends.
Steady expansion of the economy means more job opportunities, increased revenue for business and more money available for paychecks. But the signal from the leading indicators was somewhat at odds with expectation for a slower growth rate in the current quarter.
Carter to ease paperwork
MILWAUKEE—Jimmy Carter said yesterday that if elected president he did mim the dawn that drowned city officials by consolidating the federal programs as possible.
In a speech before more than 300 members of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, Carter said categorical funding—money earmarked for specific problems—should be combined in block grants wherever possible. He said certain conditions would assure the money is properly spent.
Carter made no specific recommendations but said he intends to create an advisory panel this year to "determine in what instances consolidation of the bank's assets is necessary."
President Ford has proposed a controversial program of block grants under which nearly all federal social welfare funds would be distributed with minimum benefit.
State phone network causes billing change
The Kansas Agency Network telephone system (KANS-A-N), rented to the state by the Southwestern Bell Telephone Company, will adopt a new bill and budgeting system.
Under the new KANS-A N-system, which replaced the Foreign Exchange (FX) and US dollar exchange systems in Topeka and Kansas City April 1, all long distance calls are billed to the departments and extensions on which they are made. Craig McCoy, KU comptroller, said
Four long-distance lines to Topaka, five to Kobe and two lines used by the athletic department. The GX lines. This system was often used for highways. Wide Area Telephone Services (WAIS) line.
UNDER THE KANS-A-N system, each department is required to keep a log of all the calls that are made. The log must include the name of the person making the call, the party contacted and the purpose of the call
The department then checks the log with each runout's long-distance billing.
If the department can't identify calls listed on the billing, the department still must report.
Each department authorizes the entire bill and sends a notice of unidentified calls to the insurance company.
EACH BILL is taken out of the department's expense account. After the system has been in use for a while, departments will have a rough estimate of how much of their funds should be allotted for long distance calls.
"Before April 1, WATS users didn't have to worry about paying the bills from
department funds because the University paid for the entire system. Susan Sitton, chair of the finance department, said:
Now each individual call is cleaner, but department are billed for a greater number of calls.
All departments must pay three bills this month since April and May bills were late.
THE PAYMENTS must be made this month so the state can clear its bills by June 30.
'The biggest problem my department is having is the slowness of other departments in returning confirmation sheets,' McCoy said.
The system was designed to give the state more efficient service at a lower cost per call than was available when each state agency leased its own service.
Inventory...
From page one
"We have everything from hockey pucks and jerseys to typewriters and karate mitts."
He said the Senate has 105 different organizations to inventory.
The University of Kansas and Kansas State University have joined in an effort to predict Soviet needs of United States grains the Soviet's role in the agricultural market.
Previously each organization had been accountable for property it bought with Senate funds and the Senate sent a letter to each organization each organization at the end of the year.
William C. Fletcher, director of Slavic and Soviet area studies, and Roy D. Laird, professor of political science, have organized a program with two K-State faculty members to research Soviet and U.S. grain production.
Now each organization will be asked to certify its property at the beginning of the year—describing its condition and location. These items will occur at the end of the year.
Predicting how many and what varieties of grain the Soviet Union will need from the United States is derived from studying American and Soviet farm machinery markets.
"OUR OVERRIDING goal is to give us a better advanced knowledge of Russia's role in the agriculture market," Fletcher said yesterday.
"I don't like surprises," he said. "What happened two years ago when the Soviets needed more grain than we had expected." He pointed to a program we're hoping it won't happen again."

The Hesston Foundation, supported by the largest manufacturer of farm machinery in Kansas, donated $15,000 to the study.

"We consider this grant as 'seed money,'" Fletcher said. "It's great for putting people through the state. The grant demonstrates that we're out for other donations and that we are in a position to be an influential company if it must useful in generating future funding."

FLETCHER SAID the $15,000 wouldn't cover expected costs.
"Just guessing, I would say that our total package of funds will amount to about $250,000," he said, $90,000 for a future student exchange program, $75,000 for the university research, and $20,000 to $30,000 for conferences with the Soviet programs.
"We're getting contributions from local businesses, the government and the Soviet Union," he said. "Our main project now is getting local businessmen interested in agriculture and starting seminars to explain our program."
An exchange of 10 students from each country sponsored by the program is expected to start in about a year, Fletcher said.
The program is now in an advanced stage of negotiations with the University of New York.
"Up until now it has been under quasification. Now we are changing and restudying students." Fletcher said.
STUDENTS FROM KU and K-State will be required to have studied Russian for three years, Fletcher said. They will be free to design their course of study he said.
"All we're aiming for now is to get the people of Kansas to develop better international relations," he said. "Later on we hope to have developed an interest in the program where students who are interested in the English language will speak Russian will want to take part."
By developing the exchange system with K-State, Fletcher said, he hoped to break down the isolation barrier between KU and K-State.
Fletcher said he hoped the community and the entire state would approve of the plan.
"WE'RE ALL a state," he said, "and the weaker one is a chance for us to grow and benefit."
