Meat Price Freeze Asked
WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep. Benjamin S. Rosenthal, D-N.Y., and 23 co-sponsors introduced a measure to today freeze meat prices for 45 days at April 1971 retail levels. Rosenthal said the roll back to April 1971 would reduce retail beef prices an average of about 8 cents a pound and pork prices about 10 cents a pound. About one-fourth of the typical consumer's food dollar is spent for meat.
Seed-Spitting Sanctioned
NEOSHO, Mo. (AP)—Neosho has received official sanction for a world championship watermelon seed-speining contest July 8. Jim Morris, news director of KBTN radio, said Wednesday the event was sanctioned by Frank Spencer, editor of the Pawshuka Journal Capital, Pawshuka, Okla., and owner of International Seed-Spitting Institution, Ltd. In a letter to the radio station, Spencer said the $10,000 sanctioning fee would be waived due to “the excellent relationship between Missouri and Oklahoma.”
New Fuel Source Seen
DENVER (AP)—Fuel from oil shale will be on the market by 1982, Interior Secretary Rogers C. B. Morton said Wednesday. He added, however, there was no single answer to the nation's energy crisis. Some oil shale leases already have been made in Colorado, but Morton said signatures of those leases would be required by the 1986. He noted the vast oil shale reserves in Colorado, Wyoming and Utah, and said, "If I am convinced that all the environmental objections can be resolved, we will proceed with lease offerings later this year."
Economic Slowdown Hinted
WASHINGTON (AP) — The government's leading economic indicators for May gained only slightly, pointing to a possible slowdown in economic activity, a Commerce Department report showed Wednesday. A Commerce Department analyst said no one was likely to be affected by the increase. The composite index of leading indicators increased by 0.12 per cent over April, the worst performance in a year.

Supplies Now Flooding Disaster-Stricken East
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The United States senate has come to the aid of flood victims in New York and Florida, but she has a violinist in Oklahoma City. So overwhelming has been the national good will that some Americans have said yesterday—this time by supplies.
"The problem has become a storage and distribution," said an official of the National Civil Defense in Albany. "We have tons of supplies coming into the country."
store the material and no way to distribute it unless people come to us."
Instead of food, clothing and the like, the American Red Cross suggested cash donations for flood victims—the money's easier to distribute and enables families to buy what they need
In line with this, the Senate voted on Wednesday $200 million in emergency flood aid—including a President Nixon had requested.

BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) — The petticoat of peacemakers of Northern Ireland claim to have done what the U.K. did to protect its years of violence—force guerrilla outlaws to lay down their guns.
The provisional wing of the outlawed Irish Republican Army in Northern Ireland came a few days before following a peace protest led by war-weary women. The peace revolt among the Ulster nationalist staunch IRA strongholds of Belfast and Londonderry was a major reason for the guerrilla's success.

Planes using lasers are able to veer off immediately upon releasing their bombs but TV guidance requires the aircraft to keep the target on screen for up to 20 seconds of the bombs hit home, said Miller.

He said the Air Force has been using "smart" bombs for up to two years against tanks, trucks and military targets in Vietnam.
City Prepares For Trouble At Convention
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Beach City Council gave police Cherry Rocky Poverence power Wednesday to declare states of emergency and curfews during the presidential re-election contests before retained the right to veto his actions.
The emergency ordinance provided that if Pomerance should proclaim a state of emergency, the mayor or city manager would call the council into session to determine if his action was justified. If not, he reserved the power to terminate it.
The action came after the council listened to a long procession of fearful citizens. Most pleaded for more power and respect against an anticipated invasion by thousands of protesters.
One other ordinance, permitting the formation of police committees and associations, was adopted but the council threw out eight additional proposed statutes. The vote on such ordinance was a manual 60%
