Social security bill, Budig and OPEC in the news over break
From staff and wire reports
While KU students vacationed, Chancellor Gene A. Budg spent a night at the University of Kansas Medical Center, OPEC agreed to reduce its oil prices and social security and jobs bills were discussed in Congress.
Here is a summary of those and other stories;
*Budig spent last Tuesday at the Med Center, Kansas City, Kan., with an aliment his wife called a minor problem.
Budig went to the Med Center that day for a checkup and was advised to spend the night.
- A 1800 KU graduate now living in Los Angeles was one of four Californiaians who last week received fines and suspended sentences in Thailand along with James "Bo" Gritz for illegal possession of a radio transmitter.
Lynn Standermick, who earned a business degree at KU, accompanied Gritz to Laos in an unsuccessful attempt to find U.S. prisoners of war.
Standermick's father, Robert, was an
Air Force pilot shot down over Laos in 1972.
After the fines and suspended sentence were levied, Grifz said he would pay them.
- In international affairs, the OPEC agreed last week to cut $6 from its $34 per barrel oil price and to curb exports in an attempt to avert a price war.
The price and production reductions were the first such reductions made by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries in its 22-year history.
*In an interview with London's Sunday Times, President Reagan said he could foresee a meeting between the two presidents to oppose and himself sometime this year.
Reagan also said he was optimistic that negotiations would begin soon on his Middle East peace plan, which calls for a Palestinian entity in the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip in cooperation with Jordan.
- The U.S. Marine commander in Beirut charged yesterday that Israeli troops had indiscriminately fired their weapons near Marine positions during
the past two months and that rieocheting fire had often penetrated Marine ranks.
Marine Commander Col James
Mead called the Isaac action a "gross
error" by the military.
An Israeli military spokesman in Tel Aviv said, "Israel is used to baseless charges by the Marines, including Col. Mead."
- Meanwhile, the U.S. government was optimistic about its latest inflation figures, and Social Security and jobs bills progressed in Congress.
Government sources said wholesale prices rose only 0.1 percent in February. The steepest food price jump in the past decade declines in gasoline and fuel oil costs
The small rise in the Labor Department's Producer Price Index for finished goods bolstered economists' predictions that the wholesale inflation rate might be down substantially from last year's moderate 3.5 percent. In January, the index dropped a record 1 percent.
0. 1 percent, which would be the economy's best showing since the 0.2 percent decline in 1963.
- The Senate is expected to pass a Social Security bill this week that relies on higher taxes, a six-month benefits freeze and a first-time tax on upper- earners as pensioners to ensure the system's solventy over the next 75 years.
The Senate bill would raise the retirement age for full benefits from 65 to 66 by the year 2015 and cut the basic retirement age retires 5 percent early next century.
Once the Senate approves the bill, as expected, a compromise version will be hammered out in conference. Congress hopes to hope to send Reagan a bill by Easter.
- In another politically pressured situation, Congress this week is expected to pass an emergency bill to provide jobs and recession relief that most lawmakers on both sides of the issue agree will do little good.
Many members think the recovering economy will provide more jobs than
the bill does, and at no cost to the taxmovers
Members of the House and Senate Appropriations committees meet today to resolve differences between their two multibillion dollar bills, and Reagan is likely to sign the compromise.
And despite the political urgency of creating new jobs, the Congressional Budget Office estimated that 40 percent of jobs would not be available until 1985 at the earliest.
“All we have provided is a politician's cormorcus of special problems that will not dent unemployment,” said Rick R-Uah, R-Uah, who voted against the bill.
No one know how many jobs will be created by the projects in the bill, but best estimates are between 200,000 and 500,000.
- On Wednesday, the National Center for Health Statistics released figures indicating that the number of American divorces in 1982 fell for the first time in 20 years and that the number of marriages continued to increase.
The 1.18 million divorces that were
recorded represented a 3 .percent reduction from 1981, and the 2.5 million marriages represented a 2 percent rise from 1981.
*Arthur Godfrey, the ukulele strummer whose gift for gab made him a radio and television favorite, died Wednesday at age 79 after being hospitalized 13 days for emphysema and pneumonia.
in the 1950s, Godfrey had a weekday daytime show, a Monday evening show called "Talent Scouts" and a Wednesday show called "Godfrey and His Friends."
- Cathy Evelyn Smith, the show business group facing murder and drug charges in the death of comedian Danny Sheddar did she was being used as a scapegoat.
Smith surrendered to Toronto poes-
friday after authorities had issued an
admission for a book tour.
The Canadian warrant charged Smith with one charge of second-degree murder and 13 counts of furnishing and administering cocaine and heroin, stemming from the March 5, 1982, death of Belushi.

By United Press International
WASHINGTON — The United States has about 150 intelligence technicians in Central America tracking Soviet and Cuban aid to guerrillas in EI Salvador, the New York Times reported yesterday.
The Times said the undercover network of U.S. spies was in addition to the 55-person limit for military trainers.
SENIOR REAGAN administration officials were quoted as saying the intelligence gatherers, some of whom conduct low-altitude flights over guerilla territory, were in greater danger among military trainers based in El Salvador.

The spy network was put in place in 1981 by the Reagan administration
About 150 administrators, faculty, student leaders and Lawrence residents gathered yesterday in the Satellite Union, now named Frank R. Burge Union, to honor Burge, former director of the Kansas Union.
The ceremony was in the center obby of the Union, and was followed by a reception featuring the Chuck Berg Band.
DAVID AMBLER, vice chancellor for student affairs, presided over the
ceremony. Chancellor Gene A. Budig,
Charles Haverty, president of the Memorial Corporation, Francis Heller.
Roy A. Roberts distinguished professor of law and political science, and Blair Browning, president of Union Activities, spoke about the various areas of the University in which Burge was involved.
The building now has Burge's name on its north side, and on the inside there is a plaque calling him the "Master builder of friendship, hospitality and
the Kansas Union," and a photograph of Burge.
Burge's friends have also contributed to a scholarship fund in his name with the Kansas University Endowment Association. Two scholarships will be awarded annually to SUA student leaders.
BURGE SERVED as director of the Kansas Union from 1962 to January of this year. During that time, the Kansas Union was installed and the Satellite Union was built.
An insurance settlement of $154,400 will allow radio station KANU-FM to resume operating at full power within three months, Al Berman, director of development for the station, said Friday.
"We should be receiving an answer
BUT STILL IN dispute is whether the company will pay an additional $5,000 to cover the cost of cleaning up the site, he said.
from the insurance company about the $5,000 very soon." Berman said.
KANU's insurance company, the Insurance Company of North America, notified the station of the settlement last week. It will cover the cost of repairing the tower and antenna, Berman said.
The tower fell when vandals cut three of its 24 support cables Dec. 11. As a result, the station has been operating at its normal power instead of its normal 110 kilowatts.
Berman said that the partial settlement would cover the cost of repairing the 605-foot tower, but that the additional $5,950 was needed to pay for such tasks as putting back fences and picking up pieces of the tower.
Berman said he thought the station's insurance policy should cover the incident.
"WE FEEL that with the cost of the
insurance policy it should cover the area surrounding the tower too," he said.
The station will likely select a contractor for the work as early as tomorrow, Berman said. The station has been accepting bids since January.
as KANU receives its money, he sati-
Berman would not reveal the names of
the companies involved or the amo-
nies involved. He said the bids were for about $155,000.
Construction should be complete within three months the parts are shipped on time and the weather is cooperative, he said.
