'Sick-out' at Pan Am enas
NEW YORK—Pan American World Airways said yesterday that operations were back to normal after a four-day "stock-out" by flight attendants ended. The airline also said it would be preparing for the next quarter.
As many as half of the airline's 3,000 flight attendants began calling in sick because their protest failure to reach an agreement on a new contract and their
On Monday, the Independent Union of Flight Attendants, which said it never endorsed the sick-call, asked members to return to work.
Strike hits Iranian refineries
HEBRAN, Iran - A strike by 37,000 refinery workers threatened to cripple Iran's huge petroleum industry yesterday. So far, the strike in the riot-torn country has reduced oil exports to the United States and other world markets by 40 percent, a government official said.
The oil workers' demands include higher pay and the repeal of martial law. U.S. energy officials in Washington said it was too early to determine what impact the strike would have on the United States, which imports up to 9.16 million barrels of oil a day.
But State Department spokesman Hodding Carter said the strike would have no immediate effect on the United States because transport of oil from Iran to Iraq is not feasible.
Iran, which produces about 10 percent of the in noncommunist world, is second to Saudi Arabia as a U.S. oil supplier. The United States imports 419,200 barrels per year. Iran's main exports are fuel and iron.

Farm product prices up 1%
WASHINGTON—Prices for raw farm product roe 1 percent in October, the second consecutive monthly increase, the Agriculture Department said.
the department's Crop Reporting board higher prices for cattle, hogs, milk, soybeans and wheat contributed the most to the overall gain in the farm
However, lower prices were reported for citrus fruit, broilers, potatoes and apples, which partially offset the increases for the other commodities.
Compared with one year ago, farm prices in October were up 23 percent, the report said.
Court to wait on liquor ruling
the district All that is important
Attorneys and newsmen had expected the ruling for weeks
TOPEKA—The Kansas Supreme Court will not rule on the constitutionality of a proposed liquor-in-drink law until sometime after Tuesday's election, Judge Eddie R. Moore said on Wednesday.
Voters in 45 of the state's 105 counties will vote whether to legalize the sale of mixed drinks in restaurants that do at least 50 percent of their business in food centers.
Attorney General Curt Schneider brought a legal challenge to the law, contending it was an illegal circumvention of the state Constitution's prohibition

Schroeder said the court probably would honor a request by the state Alcoholic Beverage Control Division that a ruling be announced by Dec. 1, the judge's decision.

OLATHE — A Johnson County District Court judge refused yesterday to hear the case of seven physicians who filed suit against Bill Roy, Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, in an attempt to keep Roy from claiming the endorsed medical Society and the American Medical Association.

Brock files suit charging libel
TOPEKA-Former Kansas Democratic Party Chairman Robert Brock filed a libel suit yesterday against Kansas GOP Chairman Jack Ransom concerning a news release on Brock's alleged contributions to the 1974 campaign of Democratic Senate candidate Bill Roy.
The suit, filed in Shawnee County District Court, says a news release issued september 27 by Ranson is untrue and libelous because the release allegedly accused Benson of stealing the suit.
Brock, president of Topeka Inn Management Inc. and chairman of Roy's second U.S. Senate bid, is seeking at least $30,000 in actual, punitive and compensatory damages in his suit, which was filed Monday and became public yesterday.
In Wichita, Ranson, head of an investments firm, said he would have a complete statement today after conferring with his attorney, Darry Barry, of
Republicans top state spending
TOPEKA–Campaign finance reports yesterday indicated that Republicans outspent their Democratic opponents in each contested state office race in the last two years.
Govern. Robert F. Bennett spent $64,440 more than his Democratic challenger. House Speaker John Carlin. Bennett reported expenditures of $23,185,169 since the beginning of the year.
Republican dominance in campaign spending carried down the ranks to include races for attorney general, secretary of state and state treasurer.
Carlin reported expenditures of $158,720 since the primary and receipts of $161,024.
In those races, the report indicated Robert Stephan had outspent Democrat incumbent Carl Schinneler in the attorney general context; Secretary of State Kerry had spent almost twice as much as Betty Paxson, his Democratic nominee; and Senator Jim Unger had spent more than Democratic incumbent Joan Finney.

Labor rejects inflation plan
The labor federation's decision came as the administration began trying to implement its anti-inflation plan with more detailed explanations of the voluntary restraints it is asking of workers and businessmen.
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Carter's anti-inflation program was rejected in inequitable and unfair yesterday by the AFI-CIO, which called for a special session of Congress to impose wage and price controls.
Meanwhile, the world's money managers continued to show little confidence in the administration's ability to bring the economy under control. The dollar fell to new lows in several countries, and the New York stock exchange
MEANWILE, THE Council on Wage and Price Stability told the nation's workers that compensations such as wages, insurance, sick leave and vacation must be combined. The program provides voluntary ceiling on pay increases the program includes.
The AFI-CIO's decision, announced after a meeting of its executive council here, was a sharp rebuke to the administration, which needs the cooperation of millions of workers to make its program work.
The labor union said Carter's program of voluntary controls on wages and prices did not "meet the principles of equity and fairness." They said that in practice it would hold down only wages, not prices.
The union called for mandatory controls on wages, prices, dividends, profit margins and interest rates as the only way to ensure everyone carried a fair share of the burden.
The only exception for the wage-earner is increased overtime pay, the council said, and that applies only "as far as possible."
Price increases would be held to 0.5 percentage points below the increases of the previous year, but the council said businesses could raise prices by more if they showed evidence of a decline in prices. In certain rates, raw materials, crude petroleum and natural gas
- In New York, the stock market continued to drop. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 19.40 points to 792.48 by closing yesterday, and analysts continued to place the blame on weak demand and the administration would be unable to cope with inflation.
- The director of the Council on Wage and Price Stability said in New York that a recession was "absolutely inevitable" unless the administration could demonstrate economic contraction to a year that it could bring inflation under control.
OTHER ECONOMIC news was mixed:
BARRY BOSWORTH, the director, said the administration would have to ignore unemployment for now and turn its attention to cutting spending. If it fails to do so, Bosworth said, the country will face the worst recession of all.
- In a bit of good news, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development reported in Paris that U.S. energy imports fell 12.5 percent in the first eight months of 1978 compared with the same period in 1977.
THAT IN good news because the gluttonous U.S. appetite for foreign energy contributes heavily to a negative climate trend.
In other economic news:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Thirty members of Congress raised more than $1.7 million and spent over $1 million defending their seats in a bid to stay in power in either the primary or general election.
Candidates still spend despite no opposition
THE 30 congressmen include four from Virginia, which selects its general election candidates at a convention of party leaders; the four have no general election opposition.
Another 26 candidates who faced minor opposition—they won with more than 70 percent of the vote in the primary or faced the general election. The general election—raised nearly $1.7 million and spent $1.4 million in their races, according to the latest figures from the Election Bureau.
THE FIGURES show that running for Congress can be an expensive proposition—but it can also be a powerful tool.
Rep. Edward R. Roybal, D-Calf, has said, "I always run scared, even when I'm unposposed." This election, however, Roybal faces opposition.
There is nothing illegal about such fundraising and, in fact, a well-stocked campaign chest often can aid a congressman's opposition by discouraging oppression.
The FEC figures show that nearly half of the campaign funds were raised and almost all of the donations received were after the congressmen knew, or at least suspected, that they might not be

- The General Accounting Office reported that the federal government had done a poor job of collecting about $15 billion owed to it by the public. The government charges such a low interest rate on delinquent accounts that it often unfavorable for donors to take government money and invest it elsewhere rather than paying it back, the GAO said.
