Steel truckers continue strike
PITTSBURGH, Pa.—The leader of a dissident steel truckers' group vowed yesterday to continue a six-day die-strike, despite the announcement that the company has agreed to pay damages.
State police in Pennsylvania reported at least 16 violent incidents in that state, including the shooting of three trucks. However, both the Ohio Turnpike and Pennsylvania Turnpike, which are major trucking routes, were reported relatively calm.
At the Republic Steel plant in Cleveland, picket lines slowed the movement of trucks.
A spokesman for the Teamsters Union, which is bitterly opposed to the strike by the Fraternal Association of Steel Heaters, said major truck companies have agreed to cut costs.
FASH went on strike Friday to emphasize a series of demands, including the right to bargain collectively and independence from the Teamsters Union.

That was assured yesterday when the interim Committee on Llabor Laws voted to have drafted and introduced in the 1979 session two resolutions calling for a resolution.
One proposed amendment would totally remove from the state's Constitution the present prohibition against the "open saloon," leaving to the Legislature a provision that could be amended.
The other proposed amendment would remove the ban on the open saloon, but include a county-option provision. Under it, each county in the state would vote

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Carter said yesterday, "I do mean business" in sticking to the administration's new anti-inflation program despite what he termed a serious problem of rising complaints from special interests.
Carter firm on wage-price policy
Shrugging off suggestions that his get-tough economic policies might cost him political support, Carter said on the contrary that they not only were "necessary for the country" but also would prove to be "good politics."
At a breakfast meeting with reporters at the White House, the president declared that the alternative to his recent intensified attacks on the United States would dollar might be a recession or a depression.
General compliance with Carter's guidelines, Miller told the Senate Banking Committee, could reduce the inflation rate by 0.25 percent, with the 8.25 percent rate expected in 1978.
board's credit-tightening policies in curbing inflation.
"I INTEND to hold my course," Carter said. "I . . . meant and do mean business."
Across town, Federal Reserve Board Chairman G. William Miller said public cooperation with Carter's wage-pricing was just as important as the
Contradicting Carter, Miller said neither a depression nor a recession was likely. "If this plan doesn't work, we'll have another plan," he said.
THE FEDERAL RESERVE chairman said it might take five to seven years to reduce the inflation rate to where it belongs—below 2 percent—and the cost would be slower economic growth than is desirable.
The voluntary guidelines call for limiting wage increases, including fringe benefits, to 7 percent annually while restricting price under a complex formula to 5.75 percent.
In other economic developments yesterday:
- Reflecting public skepticism about Carter's anti-inflation program, a new Associated Press-NBC news poll, conducted in the fall, found that of every 10 Americans believed inflation would worsen in the next year. The solution was to reduce federal spending.
- THE FEDERAL RESERVE reported that the nation's factories operated at 85.3 percent of capacity in October, a slight increase over the previous month and the highest level since an identical level in September, 1974. Nonetheless, Miller said the economy had avoided excessive factory activity that fuels inflation.
- Foreign governments intervening to support the dollar increased their holdings of U.S. government securities in the July-September quarter by $4.5 billion, after a decline of $1.1 billion in the previous quarter. The Commerce Department reported.
Distrust seen as hindering pact
WASHINGTON (AP)—Disappointed with the slow pace of negotiations, President Carter said yesterday that it might be necessary, "in a few cases," to modify the Camp David agreements in order to wrap up peace treaty between Egypt and Israel.
In a meeting with reporters, Carter said the two sides did not trust each other and each was interpreting the September agreements to its own best advantage.
EGYPTIAN PRESIDENT Anwar Sadat's response was delivered to Carter at the White House by Hosin Mubarak, the Egyptian vice president. A spokesman said Mubarak "explained precisely the Egyptian view of the interrelationship" between the peace treaty and future negotiations for an agreement, including the status of the Palestinians.
The negotiations, now in their sixth week, are snagged over the Palestinian issue and several other disputes. In a move to regain lost momentum, the United States has proposed that within a year of the treaty's ratification, elections be held to set up a Palestinian authority on the West Bank of the Jordan River and in the Gaza Strip.
No details of Sadat's message were disclosed, including whether he had insisted on a return to Iran.
Over the past few days, a number of reports from the Middle East indicated that Sadat was proposing another formula for Israel's occupation. The Israeli question. This was said to be centered on immediate negotiations between Israel and Egypt over the island-occupied Gaza Strip, an enclave of 400,000 Palestinian territory, in 1967 Six Day War after 19 years of control.
THE SPEOKSMAN, George Sherman of the State Department, said Mubarak had presented "some new ideas" to flesh out the Camp David agreements. According to Sherman, the Egyptian emissary affirmed that he would work with the West Bank and Gaza together."
autonomy on the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip.
But the spokesman refused to say whether the imam Egypt wanted to negotiate over Gaza.
Israel has postponed considering changes in the treaty package conveyed by Secretary of State Cyrus R. Vance to Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin in New York on Tuesday that day was requested by the administration until Mubarak could deliver Sajat's message.
THE ISRAELI Cabin will consider the proposals Sunday. Defense Minister Ezeer
Two workers' bodies found in hotel debris
TENNIS SAID new information supplied Wednesday by Summers helped rescue workers pinpoint where the other two men were later found in the rubble.
JOPLIN, Mo. (AP)—The bodies of two workers trapped under tones of rubble when an old hotel collapsed Saturday were removed from the wreckage yesterday, less than 48 hours after another worker was found alive in the debris.
The body of Thomas E. Oakes, 45, Jenks, Okla. was removed from the rubble at midafternoon, about 90 minutes after it was found by a worker sitting through the debris. The body of Frederick C. Coe III, 29, of Topeka, was recovered yesterday morning, about two hours after it was spotted by a rescue worker.
"We believe everyone is accounted for," Dennis said.
MAJ. FRANK HARRIES said Oakes was found to 30 or 40 feet from the spot where Alfred "Butch" Summers, 30 of Joplin, was alive detected in a cramped tunnel of fire
He said the bodies were discovered with the help of a German shepherd search dog from St. Louis and Gas Service Co. equipment to depict gases given off by decaying flesh.
POLICE CHIEF Larry Tennis said oakes was a timekeeper for A&A Wrecking Co., and had records in his possession listing the workers involved in the project. Tennis said the records would be checked to make sure they have been in the building when it collapsed.
Coe's body was found about 60 feet from the tunnel, between two slabs of concrete. Jasper County Coroner Wendell Fuhr said Coe died instantly.
Authorities said Summers and Coe were working in the basement when the hotel collapsed. Oakes was believed to be working on the first floor of the building.
my orignals were to meet last night to determine what to do with the Connor Anness, a portion of the building that remained standing when the older part of the 70-year-old nine-story structure collapsed Saturday, a day before it was to be demolished.
The sources, who asked not to be identified, said Meany might have endorsed the guidelines if he could have met with Carter and his campaign. The incident would succeed in holding down prices.
Oakes apparently suffered massive head and chest injuries, police said. A coroner's report showed.
Searchers worked around the clock in
Summers was hospitalized with three broken ribs and a broken pelvis.
But AFL-CIO president George Meany, who already has rejected the wage-price guidelines as unfair and urged mandatory controls instead, was reported incensed by what union sourced its information to the program personally with Meany before it was announced Oct. 24.
--their efforts to find the three workers after the hotel collapsed, and the rescue of Summers spurred hopes that the others might have survived. Hopes dimmed after another day of digging when sensitive microphones lowered into chasms in the rubble Wednesday night picked up no sounds.
ONE ADMINISTRATION official, who also requested anonymity, said a personal meeting could not be fit into Carter's plan of brushing feudes' frustility. "If the AFI-CIO knew the program in advance and if positions on it were already locked, it would have been a real possibility."
Su Casa
The hotel once was on the National Register of Historic Places but was removed so it could be torn down to make room for a library. Some of the old furnishings from the hotel had been stored for display in the library.
IN HIS SESSION with reporters, Carter did not identify the special interests whose complaints about his anti-inflation program he said posed "a very serious problem."
Gift Shoppe
White House press secretary Jody Powell, meanwhile, sought to squelch a Washington Post report that the administration was attempting to force students allow for increased pension and other benefits costs, with the aim of averting a damaging confrontation with organized left-leaning groups.

Pope tells nuns to wear habits
Addressing about 600 mother superiors of religious orders, the pope said mugs should not permit any feminist claim to overthrow the church. She obedient life in the Roman Catholic Church.
USE YOUR PEOPLE BOOK
VATICAN CITY—Pope John Paul II yesterday urged nuns to look like nuns and always to wear their "simple and apt" habits to demonstrate their religious status. He warned them against being overly religious, in public opinion, including religious ones.
Weizman met with Mubarak after the Egyptian saw Carter. Weizman planned to fly to Egypt.
The appeal came four days after a gathering of American nuns and lady Catholics women in Baltimore demanded admission of women into the priesthood.
Before leaving, Weizman said he had had a fruitable meeting with Mobarak, adding that he hoped and believed the new Egyptians would be more patient, a stumbling block in concluding a treaty.
"I don't think there is going to be any basic change in what we've outlined." Powell said, adding that some of the proposals now being considered would result in tightening rather than loosening the guidelines.
