Anderson eligible for campaign funds
Independent presidential candidate John Anderson yesterday was ruled eligible for millions of dollars in post-election federal campaign funds, and he immediately prepared to borrow against that money to finance badly-needed television commercials.
The Federal Election Commission ruled that Anderson could collect the money as long as he gets at least 5 percent of the popular vote on Nov. 4. The exact amount would be determined by the percentage he receives.
The decision is one of two developments that observers say. Anderson needs to give his campaign the credibility required to mount a serious drive for the White House. The other is inclusion in the presidential debates, if they are held.
Meanwhile, President Jimmy Carter received the endorsement of the 13.6 million-member AFL-CIO, and Republican presidential nominee Ronald Reagan campaigned in Carter's southern homeland—Jacksonville, Fla., and New Orleans.
While thanking the AFL-CIO for its endorsement, Carter said he had received a call from Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin expressing his satisfaction at the success of Carter's efforts to resume the stalled Egyptian-Iranian peace talks.
Carter also invited Begin to the White House Nov. 11—seven days after the election—and got a quick acceptance, announced by Begin's office in Israel.
Ronald Reagan, meanwhile, criticized Carter for announcing development of a "Stealth" aircraft invisible to radar of jeopardy in the skies. He also pushed KGB in the process.
Defense Secretary Harold Brown had confirmed the existence of the top-secret aircraft at an Aug. 21 news conference after news reports about the technological breakthrough had begun to appear—including an article in Armed Services Journal.
Israel. Egvpt agree to future summit
CAIRO, Egypt—U.S. Middle East Envoy Sol Linowitz said yesterday that a summit meeting between Israel, Egypt and the United States to resolve difficulties obstructing a Palestinian autonomy settlement would be held before the end of the year.
Linowitz, who worked out an agreement between Egypt and Israel to resume the suspended autonomy talks, implied that the summit could be held before the Nov. 4 U.S. elections. However, Egyptian officials, said they expected the summit to take place after the presidential elections.
On the second day of his visit to Egypt, which followed a trip to Israel, Linowitz discussed with officials practical arrangements to implement the two-part agreement. The two countries agreed to resume the autonomy talks at a mutually agreed date and consult about a future summit.
Linowski conferred separately with Egyptian State Minister for Foreign Affairs Hutros Ghall and Deputy Premier Foud Mohlededin before heading for Paris.
Ghali said bilateral talks with the United States may be held in New York or Washington "as a first step" toward tripartite negotiations. He said the negotiations with Israel would cover "a mixture of preparations for the summit and the autonomy question."
Billy case, news leak get Senate eve
WASHINGTON—A Senate panel studied a report yesterday that said Attorney General Benjamin Civiletti may have delayed Justice Department action on its investigation of Billy Carter in order to first talk with President Jimmy Carter about the case.
The Senate judiciary subcommittee probing Billy Carter's financial misconduct met in private session to determine who leaked the report to the New York Times.
At issue is a report put together by Robert Kelley, a publican counsel for the committee, concerning apparent conflicts in statements from Civiliett and Joel Lisker, head of the Justice Department's foreign agent registration unit.
According to the Kelley report, Liskeer told investigators that on June 11, he had informed Civitelli that Billy Carter had admitted taking money from his employer.
The Times said Civiliiett told the panel he did not recall issuing such instructions.
The newspaper also quoted Kelly's report as saying that if Civitetti had issued such a delaying instruction, such action "amounts to circumstantial evidence that Civitetti wanted time to talk to the president to see whether he could be arrested and sent for libya for Libya, thus avoiding criminal prosecution for refusing to do so."
Civiletti is scheduled to appear before the Senate panel today.
Polish plan fails to halt all strikes
WARSA, Poland—Thousands of Polish coal miners yesterday refused to join other strikers in returning to work, but the government proceeded with the arrests and imprisonment of them.
The first details of a proposed new set of price regulations on 100 items, from food to television repairs, were announced in the capital.
Despite a return to the pits for the first time in a week by tens of thousands of coal workers, an estimated 15,000 men kept three mines in Silsilea shut, demanding management changes and assurances that they also would be granted the rights won by other strikers earlier this week.
Several smaller walkouts also were reported around the country. In Białskoy, 110 miles northwest of Warsaw, bus drivers struck, seeking benefits won by their colleagues in Warsaw. Another new strike was reported from the southwestern health spa of Busko Zdroi.
Under the new price regulations, aimed at curbing the runaway living costs in large part responsible for the present round of strikes, there will be price controls on meat, fish and 45 other food items plus 56 industrial articles.
Parliament was scheduled to meet today, and Premier Jozef Pinkowski appointed in a government shakeup at the height of the recent labor crisis, was expected to present official plans for "a fundamental remodeling of the government's work." No details of the plan have been disclosed.
Cubans in Afghanistan, rebel claims
ISLAAMABAD, Pakistan-An Afghan rebel spokesman said yesterday that 100 Cuban troops and advisers had been sent to Afghanistan. Western diplomatic forces were also present.
In Washington, the State Department said it had "no information" about any foreign troops other than the Soviets being in Afghanistan.
He said the rebels had killed several Cuban soldiers in recent fighting and discovered who they were by examining their uniforms and identity cards.
Hussain said Bulgarian, Czech and Romanian contingents also had arrived in Afghanistan since June.
assault, the commandant, a spokesman for the Islamic Front guerrilla group, said that Cuban troops had arrived to help subdue rebel resistance to the government.
In New Delhi, India, western diplomats following the Afghan crisis said they could not confirm or deny the rebel report but were highly skeptical of the evidence.
In Washington, a State Department spokesman said, "I can state quite accurately that the Department is not providing any notification that many of our past occupations, other than the Soybeans, are in Afghanistan."
A State Department source said that moving 10,000 troops from bases in Cuba or Africa to Afghanistan would be a logistical feat that could not easily escape detection.
A story on page 5 of yesterday's University Daily Kansan stated incorrectly that Anschutz scholarships awarded this fall to 83 students totaled $127,300. The correct figure was $27,300.

Hoffman surrenders, released without bail
NEW YORK (UPI)—Abbie Hoffman, the fugitive former "Wipple" leader who got "tired of looking over his shoulder," yesterday ended six years of hiding to face drug and hull-jumping charges. He was freed quickly without
Prosecutor Sterling Johnson had requested that a bail of $100,000 bond or $10,000 cash be set for Hoffman. Hoffman's lawyer requested that no bail be set. The case was adjourned until Sept. 15.
Hoffman, 43, a former "Chicago Seven" defendant, made a V-for-victory sign with his hand as he left Crimipal Court.
Hoffman surrendered at the office of the special state narcotics prosecutor to face the charges which could-but probewon't-bring him a life sentence.
Hoffman entered the prosecutor's office at 8:52 a.m. EDT, accompanied by his brother, his sister and Johanna Lawrenton, the former model who had shared his secret life as "Barry Freed," television writer and ecology activist, on an island in upstate New York.

"I glad to be back in New York. I love New York," a smiling Hoffman told reporters as police escorted him from the prosecutor's office to the Criminal Courts building "Everyday, I worried I be caught."
The former anti-war activist and political prankster, wearing a beard and with his nose reshaped by plastic bandage, was one of the pounds of cocaine to undercover agents on Aug. 28, 1973, and further charges of skipping out on $10,000 bail.
Jack Hoffman said his brother had been ready to turn himself in two years ago.
"He was tired of looking over his shoulder," Hoffman's brother, Jack, said. "Deep down, there was always that fear."
"The time wasn't right," he said. "The politics weren't there. The time is right now."
Hoffman, who interrupted his underground existence to testify in disguise before congressional committees, said he was surrendering to the Justice Department after stopping dredging of the St. Lawrence River in update New York.
"The battle to save the river became more important than my own personal safety," the Hoffman said, this week. "I didn't have it, of meaning for me. I really didn't have
any identity. I really sort of needed the struggle."
Hoffman was a member of the Chicago Seven, a group of radicals charged with masterminding violent demonstrations at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. The group members were convicted in an apportionment that turned the violations. Hoffmann went into hiding after his arrest on the drug charges.
Even as a fugitive, Hoffman remained in politics. Not only did he testify before congressional committees, but he also was appointed to a federal commission and received memoranda from New York Gov. Hugh Carney.
Jack Hoffman said that during the past six years the two brothers had met in "alleyways, in bus terminals, at baseball games and at football games." They also met in Mexico; San Antonio, Texas; Arizona; and Canada.
