OPEC studies price increases
GENEVA, Switzerland—The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries probably will raise oil prices considerably, sources said yesterday.
OPEC is meeting in Geneva to discuss the effects of oil shortages caused by the Iranian revolution and other factors affecting world oil supply.
An Iranian delegate said that Iran had received support from Iraq, Algeria and Libya for a 29 percent increase, which would raise the American retail sector. The Iranian delegation also said it
Algeria denied that it was supporting such a large increase, but said it did want a price hike.
Opposition to the hike is expected to come from Saudi Arabia and Kuwait because officials from both countries said they wanted the market to determine
Gasoline deregulation urged
WASHINGTON - The deregulation of gasoline prices was urged yesterday by a ton official in the Federal Trade Commission.
The official, William S. Comanor, director of the FTCs bureau of economics, told a Senate subcommittee the present regulations were incredibly complex, and it would be easier to make them clearer.
The Carter administration had considered lifting the regulations this year, but the Iranian revolution and tight oil supplies changed the plans.
Although the prices would rise immediately after the deregulation, Corman said, the consumer would end up paying less for gasoline because of the return.
H-bomb story barred by judge
MIL.WAUKEE-A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction yesterday barring The Progressive magazine from publishing a story on hydrogen bombs. The injunction was issued after the magazine declined an offer by the judge to appoint mediators in its dispute with the federal government.
The government had asked U.S. District Judge Robert W. Warren to block publication on grounds that the article would reveal secret information that was published.
The magazine contended that the information in the story was readily available and that the article was about secrecy in the nuclear weapons industry, not about the making of a bomb. It also argued that the injunction was a threat to the freedom of the press provision of the First Amendment.
Evidence against Hart disputed
PREYHO, Okla — a chiristmic testifying for the defense yesterday disputed the state's evidence against Gene Lorey Hart, suspected in the murders of three women.
Herbert Maxey, a former chemist for the state health department, said the tests could show similarities, "but that's about as far as it goes." Maxey also added that the results were likely to be accurate.
After examining hair samples from Hart and one of the three Girl Scouts found bludgeoned to death. June 13, 1977, Maxye said the samples looked similar but could only give a clue as to the race of the person. They did not, he said, give a clue to one particular person.
A technician for the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation earlier testified the "microscopic characteristics of both samples were consistent and they either came from Gene Leroy Hart or someone with exactly the same microscopic characterism."
Utility tax removal endorsed
TOPEKA-Legislation to remove a 3 percent sales tax from residential utility bills was endorsed by the Kansas Senate Assessment and Taxation Committee yearly.
The committee endorsed the House bill, 9-2, after eliminating from the exemption any residential bills for telephone and telegraph service. The committee also removed a House provision that would have exempted utility service for agricultural use.
The bill would remove the 3 percent tax from home utility bills beginning July 1 at an estimated cost of $18 million...
The bill received slight opposition when State Sen. Charlie Angell, R-Plans attempted to remove the utility exemption and reduce the 3 percent state sales tax to 2.7 percent. Angell's attempts were foiled when the committee voted against that action.
Committee OKs spending lid bill
TOPEKA—A state spending bill endorsed by a Kansas Senate committee yesterday should be more acceptable to Gov. John Carlin than he vetoed last month.
The bill would establish a 7 % per cent limit on increased appropriations from the general fund and the federal revenue sharing fund. It also would require that a year-end general fund balance be maintained of at least 8 percent of the state budget.
The Senate Ways and Means Committee endorsed the bill after they deleted a House provision that would have provided a $14 million property tax cut.
A provision was added by Senate Minority Leader Staceen Steiger, D-Kansas City, to exempt from the lid state aid for local school districts as tax relief.
The change to the House plan was the only thing that made the spending plan different from the measure Carlin vetoed.
End to dry flights proposed
TOPEKA-A A bill that would allow airlines to serve liquor on flights over Kansas without a license was introduced yesterday in the Kansas Senate.
While the bill, introduced by the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee, does not address the question of serving liquor when on the ground, presumably the airlines serving Kansas would have to keep their bottles corked while loading and unloading passengers.
Earlier in the 1970s, Vern Miller, who then attorney general, maintained that airlines could not legally sell liquor by the drink even while in the air over California.
House votes to drow primaru
TOPEKA-Kansas House members voted yesterday to cancel the state's first presidential primary, scheduled for April, 1980, saving the taxpayers $1.13.
Legislators tentatively approved, 63-54, a bill repealing the state's one-year law that set up a Kansas primary to nominate candidates for president of the state.
Under current law, every voter in the state who declared a party affiliation would be able to vote in that party's primary.
State Rep. James Gillmore, R-Newton, argued legislators to maintain the state's current convention of electing national party convention delegates in the House.
But supporters of the bill said a primary would offer more people a chance to nominate delegates and presidential candidates.
Bill could give pot to patients
TOPEKA - The Kansas House yesterday tentatively approved a bill that would allow cancer and glaucoma patients to use marijuana as part of their treatment.
The bill's sponsor, State Rep. Mike Glover, D-Lawrence, said it would remove criminal penalties for possessing marijuana only for patients certified by their doctors.
Glover said research had indicated marijuana greatly eased nausea and other unpleasant side effects caused by chemotherapy.
The bill would permit the use of marjuanja to help ease nausea caused by chemotherapy. It also could be used to treat glaucoma, an aeve disease.
During committee hearings on the plan, medical authorities testified that a third of the cancer patients in a University of Kansas Medical Center experiment thought marijuana eliminated nausea after chemotherapy treatments.
Skies will be partly cloudy today and highs will be in the mid-50s, according to the Weather Service. Temperatures will be in the 30s tonight. It will be partly cloudy tomorrow.

In Cairo, millions of Egyptians watched their televisions, tuned in their radios or simply listened for the pealing of bells announcing the birth of peace for their land.
TEI, AVIV, Israel (AP)-Tens of schools of Israelis gathered in cold, rainy weather yesterday to dance, cheer, cry and pray as they hailed the peace with peace.
Blast mars treaty festivity
SPOKESMEN AT three hospitals said none of those injured was in serious condition and one American tourist was hurt. None of the vietnamized was identified by name.
The festive mood was shattered in Jerusalem, where a terrorist grenade inside the building exploded.
The grenade exploded in Jerusalem a one- city 10 minutes before the treaty was signed in Washington. It injured four American tourists, one French tourist and five other persons who were not identified by nationality.
