Plan aims to build up fund
WASHINGTON—President Carter yesterday proposed using $14.1 billion in general tax revenues to keep the Social Security fund solvent, and will seek institutional reforms that are consistent with his agenda.
Faced with a report that showed Social Security's cash reserves could be depleted by the early 1980s, Carter suggested the unprecedented use of general revenues to ensure the nation's 33.4 million elderly and disabled continue receiving payments.
Carter, in a message sent to Congress by aide while he is in London, also proposed that employers pay Social Security taxes on all workers beginning employment.
Califano said Carter also plans to ask Congress to increase Social Security taxes on workers.
That would cost business and industry an estimated $34.0 billion by 1982, the White House said, but HWE Secretary Joseph Califano told reporters "There's a lot of work that needs to be done."
Leaders discuss Mideast
GENEVA, Switzerland—President Carter met yesterday with Syrian President Hafez azez to search for ways to end the decades-old Arab-Iraeli conflict. A Syrian source said Assad presented Carter with an Arab consensus plan for creation of a Palestinian state.
A government source in Damascus, Jordan, told reporters the plan had the approval of Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Palestine Liberation Organization
The source indicated the proposal called for a Palestinian homeland on the West Bank of the Jordan River and the Gaza Strip, Israel-occupied territories. He said Arab leaders had resolved their differences over the links the new state would have to the world, but he gave no details. There was no immediate comment from either party.
Hearst receives probation
LOS ANGELES—Newspaper *Beirat Patricia Hearst* was sentenced yesterday to five years' probation for two charges stemming from a 1974 crime spree. The newspaper described the assault as a "piercing" attack.
Miss Heiser, 23, flanked by her two attorneys, stood and faced the judge to hear the sentence that could have been life in prison.
She had pleaded no contest April 18 to charges of assault with a deadly weapon and robbery while a member of the Symbionese Liberation Army. Nine other charges, including assault, robbery and kidnaping, were dismissed at the time of sentencing.
Judge E. Talbot Calltier sentenced her to five years probation on each of two counts with several conditions, including financial restitution to the owner of a building in which she was working.
Plutonium use to continue
SALZBURG, Austria—The Soviet Union yesterday rejected President Carter's bid to forego the plutonium economy and its threatened spread of atomic weapons. A Russian official, Vladimir Schmidt, told an international nuclear power conference here that plutonium must be used. The Soviet Union, he said, will press on with its fast-breeder reactors that create more plutonium than they use up as fuel.
His statement came as no surprise to U.S. officials here. They said, however, it was the first time that Moscow had responded in public to the President's example. Carter last month announced that the U.S. would postpone indefinitely compulsory military service until 2034 and reinforce the premium. At the same time he warned the world of the dangers from a plutonium edge.
Plutium is an element created in nuclear reactors, and it is one of the fissionable or splittable materials from which an atomic bomb can be made easily. Fast breeders are attractive to nations concerned about the limited supply of uranium, the vital element in conventional nuclear plants.
Young to leave for Africa
WASHINGTON - Ambassador Andrew Young prepared to leave yesterday for a two-week tour of Africa at the State Department waited for word on whether the United States would send him.
Young and several U.S. ambassadors to African nations are to meet at Abidjan, Ivory Coast, today. He then will visit Ghana and Nigeria before going to Maputo, Mozambique, for a United Nations conference supporting the blacks of Rhodesia and Namibia.
Oil spill
He said he understood that no substantial damage was done by the spilled oil.
HE SAID that he didn't know what permutations could be assessed against the
Chancellor Dykes did the oil spill was untorture, but that it was obviously unsafe.
From page one
Andy Finrock, past president of the Jayhawk Audubon Society, said officers of the society had inspected the affected area yesterday evening.
"KU HAS done a reasonably good job of cleaning up," he said, "but they still have a lot to do."
He said that a quarter-inch to half-inch layer of oil covered some backwater pools along the drainage canal, and that a sheen spread over the water. In the Wakarusa, some oil was still free and was coating the banks.
The members of the society were dismayed that KU apparently had no preventative measures, he said, and that a letter campaign to officials would begin.
"A different kind of bar featuring seclusion and quiet."
