New York gets reprieve
NEW YORK—Governor Hugh Carey and Mayor Abraham D. Beane yesterday that creation of the Municipal Assistance Corporation means New York City's cash crisis was over and the city could start putting its financial house in order.
Both men said there would be money to pay the city's $792 million in obligations due Wednesday.
Establishment of the corporation, dubbed "Big MAC" by Carey, gave the city only a temporary reprieve from its money woes.
Beame said the corporation, whose aim was to convert the city's short-term debt into long term obligations, wouldn't affect his proposed firing of city employees. Beame's $11.8 billion "crisis budget" called for the firing of 37,000 of 315,000 city employees.
Rabin arrives, talks peace
WASHINGTON—Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, who arrived here yesterday, told talks with his country Ford, said his country was prepared to do whatever it needed to achieve peace.
In a brief statement at Andrews Air Force Base in suburban Maryland, Rabin emphasized his government's faith in "special relations" with the United States. Rabin will talk with U.S. officials about Israel's $2.59 billion military and economic aid request as well as ways to resume peace negotiations.
At the welcoming ceremonies at the base, Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger twice told Rabin, "You are among friends here."
But Kissinger reminded the Israeli leader publicly that the two countries had problems to discuss including negotiations and relations between them.
In his talks with Ford, Rabin won't insist that an Egyptian pledge of non-belligerency be part of an际im Interim settlement, sources said.
Current Israeli thinking is to accept a promise not to use force as a starting point for negotiating a partial settlement, they said.
B.C. prison siege goes on
NEW WESTMINSTER, B.C.-Three life-term prisoners continued to hold in the afternoon a small storage vault at British Columbia Penitentiary, official said.
Two staff members and two intermediaries requested by the prisoners met with the inmates, who are demanding free passage to a foreign country, said Jim Lefkowitz.
There was no word on the progress of the negotiations to end the siege, which began Monday.
The prisoners had threatened to kill the hostages if their demands were not met. Meanwhile, Canadian Armed Forces engineers converted a helicopter to passenger use Tuesday evening in case it is needed to meet a demand by the prisoners that they be taken to an airport by helicopter and flown out of the country. A few hours earlier prison officials said they had not requested a helicopter.
Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau has been briefed on the prisoners' demands, officials said.
OPEC delays price hike
LIBREVILLE, Gabon (AP)—The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries has agreed to put off until September any final decision on raising oil prices, Venezuelan Oil Minister Valentin Hernandez Acosta said yesterday.
Hernandez Acosta, chairman of the 13-
nation oil cartel, told newmen "some
adjustment will be necessary" after the
U.S. DEP'R price expires expires on
September 30.
Oil producers said they needed a price to compensate for what they said were losses due to worldwide wifiation. But there is no solid evidence that inflation has eroded prices since 2015, and some producers now wish to raise prices, which have already quadrupled since 1973.
OPEC's current 40th ministerial conference postponed decisions on how large the increase should be, when it should go into effect and how it should be applied equally by all the OPEC members, Hernandez Acosta said.
"We want to be very responsible and make fair decisions," he said. "So we are going to leave the final decision until September."

OPEC sources said the proposal would raise the present price of $10.46 a barrel by 50 to 70 cents. Increases in this range would raise the price of gasoline in the United States by one to one and a half cents per gallon, petroleum experts in New York said.

A U.S. official said that Convay was being held on "unspecified political charges."
