From Our News Wires LANSING—Legislative leaders in both houses.planhed a summit conference with Gov. William G. Milliken this afternoon on the fate of further education reform ih 1369. Hie development came . as speaker William A. Ryan told colleagues on foe House floor today that they should ad-journ the 1969 session immediately unless they reach a bipartisan agreement to work seriously on education reform bills. Rykn asked for party caucuses on foe Issue as foe chamber recessed until midaftemoon. MiDiken’s educational reform program lay in serious Jeopardy after House rejection of proposals to finance next year’s .mammoth school aid bill. Defeated yesterday were measures to raise the state income tax and to repeal the property tax credit on the income tax, both to help pay for Milliken’s (1-biUion school-aid bill. The bill includes a (25-million allotment for lay teachers in non-public schools. * * . W •: lr Although the school aid bill is scheduled for a vote in foe House" later this week, many members publicly have said they would not.vote for it if tax measures Were not passed first to finance a (183-million increase from this year’s allocation. Defeat came first for House Speaker William A- Ryan’s proposed income tax -increase, which would have raised the personal income tax in Michigan from 2.6 per cent to 3 per cent, estimated to bring in (131 million annually in additional revenue. House members rejected the proposal on a 39-68 vote, with yes and no votes split evenly among Democrats and. Republicans. . * * * The lower chamber then debated Milliken’s proposed property-tax credit repeal more than two hours before handing it a crushing 24-84 defeat. The bill would' have raised (116 million' and would have been contingent, on voter acceptance next year of a constitutional . amendment limiting school ? property taxes to 12 mills. CLEARED BY SENATE Milliken’s property tax credit repeal proposal has already cleared the Senate. In the meantime, Senate Republican leader .Emil Lockwood of St. Louis said he has all but abandoned hopes of trying to push through the Senate the two constitutional amendments in the governor’s program. Lockwood said last night proposals to replace the present elective State Board of Education with foe appointed board and create a statewide property tax to finance education may have to wait until January.

A committee source said the conferees were “discussing” a cut in the oil depletion allowance to 22 per cent, but had made no hard, final decision. SOCIAL SECURITY BOOST Both House and Senate tax bills contain a 15 per cent boost in Social Security benefits across the board for all 25 million recipients, effective Jan/1. The Senate added another provision, subject to the conference committee negotia- tions, to raise the ininlmum n monthly payment from $55 to (100. President Nison has said he will veto a tax bill containing the Senate-approved features of a 15 per cent Social Security boost and an (800 personal tax exemption provision. The House tax relief generally takes the form of rate reductions averaging at least 5 per cent for all classes of taxpayers in two years, by 1072. 'Hie Senate's relief substitutes the rate reductions for a (700 personal exemption for all taxpayers and dependents in 1970, and (800 in 1971. A compromise was under discussion.

O’BRIEN Railroad Strike Threat Renewed WASHINGTON (AP) - The renewed threat of a nationwide railroad shutdown after New Year’s poses a postholiday hangover for the Nixon administration following union members’ rejection of the biggest wage proposal in their history, “Pm naturally disappointed,” Secretary of Labor George P. Shultz said yesterday. He had directed government efforts to reach the tentative settlement after three days of grueling, marathon bargaining two weeks ago. “The agreement was shot down by a vote of close to 2-1,” said Vice President J. W. O’Brien of the AFL-CIO Sheet Metal Workers with 8,000 members involved. Members of three other AFL-CIO shop craft unions in the dispute—Machinists, Electricians and Boilermakers—narrowly approved the proposal, but foe unions had agreed none would accept unless all did. Thus, about 5,000 sheet metal workers who voted “no” killed the settlement involving a total of 48,000 men. Machinists’ Vice President William W. Winpisinger, chief negotiator for the four unions, asked him to return to the bargaining table “some time after Jan. 6.” Chief industry negotiator John P.

(I) — A panel of three federal judges has ordered the Georgia Board of Education to terminate state funds to school districts which have not filed desegregation plans by March 1970. The far-reaching decision yesterday also: • Defines an integrated school system as one in which 75 per cent of all pupils of a minority race are enrolled in integrated facilities. • Requires the state board, frith the assistance of the D.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare,(HEW), to process and review all school desegregation plans in the state, before April .1,1970. Related Story, Page C-18 • Directs the state boards, in cases where desegregation plans are not in compliance wifi court standards, to insure compliance by May 1, 1970. • Orders each of the desegregation plans fully implemented by Sept. 1, 1970. f . The decision was believed tef be this first in the nation placing the\respon-sibility for school desegregation at the state level. In the past, such action has been directed at local boards with the possible cutoff of federal school funds' used as the prime method of enforcement. It also marked the first time a federal court has designated specific standards for school desegregation. 3-JUDGE VERDICT The decision by U.S. District Court" Judges Sidney O. Smith Jr/ Newell Edenfield and Albert Henderson Jr. came on a Justice Department suit filed last August. The suit, seeking state-enforced integration of all Georgia schools, was the first ever filed by the federal government against a state. It followed an announced shift in school desegregation enforcement from HEW to the Justice department. Earlier this week, the three judges denied motions by the state that the suit be dismissed, primarily on grounds the court lacked jurisdiction. In their final decision fie judges declared: “It should now be abundantly clear, toall save those who adamantly _ . refuse to see or hear, that the supreme pliance with HEW’s desegregation school law of these United States provides that guidelines. dual school systems must be completely abolished.” A,.''' ★ J ★ The order will affect 81 Georgia school districts.

Bloomfield Hills remains the virtual single oasis of trees, grass and open land on the building boom strip along Woodward between Detroit and Pontiac. k ' k ■ k, .. And the city’s main objective is how to. 'preserve that lone bastion of residential : flavor. . » I Standing between the retention of that residential flavor and more commercial exploitation are 14 parcels — ranging from three to 30 acres —• along Woodward in the city. These in the developer’s eye, could be ripe,,for pluck* lng. $1,600 A SQUARE FOOT Property abutting Woodward has been selling in the neighborhood of $1,000 per square foot in recent transactions, according to Robert Stadler, the city’s new city manager. ★ k k Stadler, who Uvea, at 4196 Grayton in Waterford Township, assumed the city manager's post in November following nearly 22 years' of service for the city. His responsibilities have ranged from city treasurer and clerk to safety director. Meanwhile, the wait continues on what action the city may take concerning its attitude toward changipg-the existing single-family residential zoning, which now applies to the vacant property, Stadler feels that the majority of the city comission members as well as most of .the city’s 3,509 residents want .future commercial exploitation held to a minimum. NO NEED FOR EXPANSION Stadler explained that residents do not have a need for further commercial expansion because of the city’s proximity to numerous shopping districts. “The people here want the city to remain . residential, and most of them realize that in order to do that, they have got to pay more taxes," he said. \ V.' , t* ij # *'■ it. ' Stadler pointed to the vacant Woodward Avenue land as a girowing problem because of the diversity of opinion concerning the disposition of the property and the possibility of more rezoning petitions, There are now three court suits pending on rezoning petitions to.change various parcels to corjamercia^ zoning, with the possibility Of a fourth coming up. FURTHER DIFFICULTIES Mf Stadler foresees further difficulties with the zoning problems unless the city fathers come up with a solution that would eliminate possibilities of extensive commercial development. “The members of the City Planning Board and the City Commission realize .the. Woodward situation is a problem. They are attempting to come up with a solution that would, prove beneficial to thecomfntmlty," Statilersald. ★ k -k “The desirability of building single-family residences along Woodward is low. This situation has prompted the planning commission to find out just what the best uses of the the land are while at the same time attempting to avoid a- commercially exploited lode," Stadler said. \ ■ - 1 . The city manager notes that most of the recent commercial expansion has\ been the construction of large office butidings in, and near the Woodward-East . Long Lake intersection. PRESTIGE OF ADDRESS’ Most of. the future development requests will probably be similar. The reason: Stadler can only believe that -its the prestige of having the Bloomfield Hilwaddress,/ • - / l' • ; He noted that the most recent building, a 28,000-square-foot structure now near completion on East Long Lake Road adjacent tb the city offiee building, has billed itself in a promotional brochure as “Bloomfield North," an address in a prestigious location near advertising agencies and other well-known firms. ★ -k k . Owners of the 14 vacant Woodward Avenue parcels naturally have .been sitting tight awaiting the outcome of the pending law suits on toe Tezqning requests. . ■’: * '' Decision on toe two-principle suits — one involving a parcel at Lone Pine and Woodward now pending in Circuit Court — will .undoubtedly serve as indicators concerning city government action on future zoning (Ranges, Stadler feels. DECISION APPEALED The other disputed prbperty problem concerns property on tLone VPiqe and Woodward which was directed to be rezoned to commercial by Oakland County Circuit Court. That decision has since been appealed to the Michigan Supreme Court. ★. k k Stadler said there has been increasing pressure from developers concerning the future of the vacant property, in the city. An example of this pressure' was recently felt in a hassle concerning prop- . erty on Hickory Grove at Lahser. The developer was attempting to double the housing density of the parcel in con- nection with plans for a condominium development. ★ k k Bloomfield Hills is by no means standing still in population. The total has jumped from 2,468 to 3,500 in just 10 years. The. city is gradually losing its character of many years ago when toe area was spotted with rambling estates stately houses, and rolling empty land. ; : ★ ? k k ' The trend in recent years has pointed to smaller residences and the dividing up of large estate-type properties. ---• —* ★ >k k • _, Stadler said the population saturation level in the city will top out at about; 6,500. However, hp does not expect population increase to reS6h a boom-type level that would cbme anywhere near; that figure. < ★ * * »' * Under present zoning regulations^ future construction of office buildings; and other nonsingle-famtiy residential structures would be 'minimal The city* now has only two parcels left thg$ are! zoned for apartments and one lot that (r zoned commercial. . .. • - * k k' . Zoning changes could, of course,, appreciably change the situation. .

FITZGERALD ARLO McCULLY THE PONTIAC PRESS Pontiac, Michigan 48058 THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1 Cease-Fires Backfire About the year 1000, several Cath- * olic Church councils in Southern France instituted what came to be known as the Truce of God. Under it, there was supposed to be no fighting from Thursday to Sunday, during Lent and on holy days — which left something less than two days a week for making war. Offenders were excommunicated. Times have changed. The war week In Vietnam is seven days and truces are honored in the breach. Last year, the allies reported 111 violations of a 24-hour Christmas stand-down. The Vietcong claimed a similar degree of bad faith on the part of the South. It was during another truce last year when North Vietnamese forces staged their heaviest assault of the war on Jan. 30— the Tet Offensive. A. four-day extension of the Tet, or lunar new year, pause in 1967 Was shattered when bombing was resumed to halt a North Vietnam buildup. The Communists have almost al- ways beaten South Vietnam to the punch by being first to announce a temporary truce. This year, however, South Vietnam was first, on Dec. 4, to announce 24-hour stand-downs beginning at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 24 and on New Year’s eve. The North responded by saying«it would observe three-day cease-fires beginning at 1 a.m. on Dec. 24, and Dec. .30. ' ★ ’★ ★ Presidential Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler has declined to say whether the United States will observe more than a 24-hour cease-fire. “This country has put forward a proposal for a general ceasefire and it has been rejected by the other side,” Ziegler told newsmen on Dec. 5. On the other hand, South Vietnam refused to honor a three-day stand-down called for by the Communists to honor Ho Chi Mlnh following his death on Sept. 3. Again this year, the chances for peace on earth are non-existent or slim. Fate Plays Gruesome Role Fate plays many tricks—some of them tragic and beyond mortal understanding. Troy patrolman Charles E Smetana was a recent victim of an irony of life. Answering an accident call, his car skidded into a bridge abutment on 1-75. The officer suffered injuries of which he died hours later. The 33-year-old policeman, a former U.S. Marine and Detroit patrolman for three years, had been on the Troy force for a like period. ★ ★ ★ Lost to the community is a dedicated public servant who gave his life in performance of duty. Pesticide Ban Pest Boon ? The days are numbered not only for DDT. A government crackdown is expected on a wide, variety of “hard” pesticides and herbicides as a consequence of recommendations recently made by the Commission on Pesticides and their Relationship to Environmental Health. The commission, which reports to the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, has asked for severe restrictions on such familiar bug and weed killers as Aldrin, Dieldrin, Chlordane and 2,4-1). These and other compounds, it has been determined, “are persistent and cause or can cause contamination to the environment and damage to various life forms within it.” In the case of DDT, that persistence is on the order of 35 years. This is how long scientists estimate it may take before the last traces of the chemical disappear from the life chain after the Federal ban on its use becomes effective in 1971. Long before 35 years, however, science must reach into its magic hat and come up with effective replacements for the persistent, pesticides. For if the earth cannot continue to absorb chemical pollution, neither could its agriculture support the present human population of 3.5 billion—-let alone the 6 billion who will be here by the year 2000— without the aid of chemicals. New Federal Pay Raise Is in Works By LOUIS CASSELS WASHINGTON (UPI) -Congress is preparing to give government workers another pay raise. — If it survives a possible presidential veto, it will be the seventh pay boost federal employes have received in five years and the second in the past six months. The most recent previous Increase took effect last July 1. It boosted pay scales for 2.3 million civil service workers and 3.5 million members of the armed forces by an averaged of 9 per cent. The ndw increase, authorized in a bill which the Senate Post Office and Civil Service committee hopes to steer to passage this week, would be effective Jan. 1, and ' would apply to white-collar v civil service employes, postal workers and members Of the armdd' forces. >' Tho Associated toss Is dotMod exclusively te the use far republication of oil lecal newt printed in, Hti* naunpapsr as wall as all AP Tha Pontiac Pratt It doHvorad by carrior lor 60c o waafc; t* jjj Those now earning less than $10,000 a year would get a 4 per cent increase. The raise would be 3 per cent for those■ in the $10,000 to $15,000 bracket, 2 per cent for those earning $15,000 to $20,000 bracket, 1 per cent for those now being paid above $20,000. The average government worker would get an increase of $389, bringing his salary to $10,116 a year. ★ ★ ★ Hie bill also Would guarantee g overnment workers another pay raise of at least 3 per cent next July i: The July raise could be higher than 3 per cent if the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Civil Service Commission should determine, on the basis of a national survey, that a larger increase is necessary to keep federal pay scales “comparable” to those prevailing in private industry. Eveii if 'the1 July raise is only 3 per bent, three across-the-board pay increases in 12 months will boost the federal payroll by about $6 billion a; year to an all-time high of $52.2 billion in, the coming fiscal year. EXPECTED TO PA8S The Senate is expected to pass the pay bill, and the House may accept it as a substitute for its own pay "Don't Shoot Until You See The Whites Of Their Eyes!' U.S. Mideast Plan Merits Study By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign News Analyst The United1 States has for the first time publicly enunciated.its peace proposals for the Mideast. It may be, as Secretary of State William P. Rogers said, that both the Arabs and the Israelis will find certain of the conditions unpalatable. The plan has already been summarily rejected by Israel, but in a situation moving steadily toward the point of NEWSOM no return, it would seem worthy of serious study by both sides. * fart The secretary caUed-for: • Israeli withdrawal from territories occupied in the 1967 war. “Insubstantial” border changes should be negotiated by both sides. • Arab agreement to a binding peace. These negotiations should be carried out under procedures employed in 1949 under the Rhodes formula of indirect talks through the United Nations representative, Gunfar Jarring. • Jerusalem to become a unified city open to all faiths measure approved earlier In the session. The original House bill provided for more generous increases, including an extra boost for postal 'wbrkers retroactive to last Oct. 1. ... President Nixon let it be known that he would veto the House bill. Whether he would veto the somewhat less costly Senate version is not yet known, but there is a good chance that he would. Unless there is a hue and ery from the taxpayers, however, there also is a good chance that Congress would enact the Senate bill over a presidential veto. That requires a two-thirds majority. But federal pay raise bills have an enormously effective lobby working for them, since the outcome affects the pocket-book of every member of every congressman's staff. ■ \ * \ *' .* i '• ; Proponents of the pay bdost say it is needed to offset the sharp , rise in living costs which has occurred In the past year. Opponents say that the increase in government spending which the „pay / boost would entail would further feed the fires of inflation and drive everyone’s living costs even higher Bob Considine Possible Space Shuttles No NASA Boondoggle HOUSTON — The National Space Agency has asked Boeing, Lockheed and TWA Jo whip up what might be called a giant econonpy-sized manned spacecraft. Its purpose would be to shuttle astronauts from Cape Kennedy to the space stations that NASA proposes to put in earth orbit after the Apollo series ends. * * * The companies have been Issued some arresting specifications. All the hardware used in the shuttle must be recoverable in good condition. The basic booster, possibly the size of a Saturn, must be constructed ko that its crew — the first chauffeurs of the cosmos — will be able to bring it back and CONSDDINE land it like an airplane, once the payload section of the shuttle has been inserted in proper orbit. The task of the payload will be even more involyed. Its crew must, first of all, find the space station and dock. Then they must restock the station with food, fresh oxygen and other life supports...= CHANGE PLACES If the space station’s crew has completed Its SOday tour it will change places with the crew of the shuttle and guide the vehicle through reentry and to an airplane-type landing. Another type of shuttle service might involve a shuttle vehicle’s piaking the rounds of several space stations, like a milkman or mailman tends to his .route. Indeed, milk and mail delivery could become routine services hi the particular portion of the space age that lies just beyond the Apollo moonshots. and nationalities. Presumably this-would mean some kind of international control. • Special safeguards for the area of Sharm El Sheikh which controls access to the Gulf of Aqaba add which was the trigger of the 1987 war, and demilitarized zones in the Sinai Desert. PRESSING REASONS Both sides have pressing reasons to come to some kind of terms. As Premier Golda Melr begins her new terra in office, Israel is facing an ecoddmic crisis which by the end of the year is expected to see foreign reserves fall to below $500 million. ★ It Spending not included In Israel's regular budget this year will come close to $400 million and may go well over it. All this means heavy added taxes for the Israeli people, along with an austerity program leading to arrested development and uniemployment. CHIEF ANTAGONIST On the Arab side the chief antagonist is Egypt. President Gamal Abdel Nasser’s government exists on subsidies from its oil-rich . neighbors, mostly Kuwait and . Saudi Arabia, and gets its arms from the- Soviet Union to which it his mortgaged much of its economy. > ' . ★ * * The Suez Canal, which Once earned more than $200 million a year for Egypt, remains closed and in an age of oil pipelines, and super tankers may never again regain Its old importance. ...... All of the above provides valid reason for agreement. ★ * ★ But when emotion comes in reason goes out the door. The Israelis say they never will give up Jerusalem. And in the emotional state to which Nasser has whipped the Arabs, it is doubtful if he could agree to peace and still keep his job.

W. J. ‘Why* an Uproar Over Possible Mistakes?’ We don’t hear much of an uproar about the massacres by the Communists in Russia, Eastern Europe, Asia, Cuba, Vietnam, etc., yet estimates of these murders run 70 to 80 million. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were blasted by our atom bombs. Dresden, Germany, was blasted by our bombs at the insistence of Russia. Biafran women and children are starving fet the rate of thousands per month. These are blacks. Too many of our Senators, Congressmen and black leaders don’t seem to care about these atrocities.

A CONCERNED WIFE AND MOTHER ‘Christmas Giving Is Motivated by Love’ The Press recently had a cartoon depicting a wheelbarrow loaded to the limit with Christmas boxes, pushed by a dis-gusted-looking clerk. Also, Sidney Harris says Christmas has become a “mess.” One does not have to be a Pollyanna to remember that this mess is motivated by tha strongest power on earth—love and kindness to our fellow men.

Write them for THJE PONTIAC PRESS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1969 House of Herod and Jesus—4 Insane King Greets the Magi •' By GEORGE W. CORNELL AP Religion Writer In a alow, steady rhythm, the bare-chested slaves swung the long fans of peacock feathers above King Herod’s' head keeping off the flies. He*sat propped on pillows, paring an .apple, mouthing it off the blade. His hands shook. His breath came haltingly, in short gasps. * * ★ His red-lined eyes shifted warily' about the reception hall scrutinizing the Syrian cooks with their laden platters, the mail-coated bodyguards, spears at their sides, the dusky hounds sprawling on the floor. • Thin whisps of smoke curled from the three-legged engraved brazier, A water clock dripped monotonously. . HEARS FOOTSTEPS Outside, along the cbvered pergola, he heard the sandalled footsteps, and at once, a sentry stepped through the doorway drapes to announce th • presence of * the . e a s t e r n travelers who had stirred up the city with their inquiries. Herod, the knife still in his hand, motioned for their admission. They came forward, a stately looking delegation, sashed robes, salaaming before him In the Oriental manner. ★ 4 ★ So these were the Magi, the sages of the hoary metaphysical books and celestial signs, the strangers who had been asking about a newborn king, “Wonderful Counsellor ”1 “Prince of iPeace," who would reveal “the glory of the Lord’ and whose government would have no end. To Herod, it was sheer treason. * Long journey They Had reached Jerusalem after a long overland journey, apparently from Persia, looking for the illustrious child, manifestation of the Omnipotent, foretold in their recondite tomes and signalled by culminating phenomenon in the stars. Herod, disease-ridden, often delirious, already obsessed with phobias about suspected plots against him, raised himself stiffly on the cushions, a frosty smile forming on his lips. ★ ★ ★ “The king greets thee,” he said, coughing. He ran the back of .his hand across his mouth, and leaned forward, forcing a tone of congratulatory solicitude into his voice. “Say on now, when didst thou behold this marvel in the firmament. It is a subject Of our most’ .eager desire.” * \ The bearded chief Magus cited the day and hour, along with details about a series of planetar^ conjunctions in 7 C., climaxed- by a triple conjunction of Jupiter, Saturn and Mars. ( CYCLE COMPLETE “The cycle is complete,” he said firmly. “It was the supreme fravishi!” with an “everlasting dominion,’ the Jewish seer, Daniel, had envisioned in the courts Persia itself, the homeland of thege.visitipg mystics. And the prophet Micah, 600, years past, had, written that the mighty one' would be born in Bethlehem. ’GO AND SEARCH’ Herod, after diciting the time interval since the Magi saw their “star,” directed them to the village south of the capital, adding breathily, “Go and search diligently, for the child, and When you have found him bring me word, that I, too, may come and worship him.” He settled back in. his seat, his thumb stroking the knife edge, as the visitors disappeared through the damask curtains. The child would be under 2. Herod muttered to himself, reaching for a slab or roasted venison on a sidestand. He Swallowed several bites and thr^w the rest to the hounds. They gulped it down and stood there, tongues lolling, greedy for more. “Jackals, parasites, demons!’’ he screamed at them, as if they represented the whole world around him, ready to pounce. Some had tried it once, the worse for them. He had ripped them to shreds, but he still kept these beasts around to prove his nerve, dar-ing them, these circling devils, with their beady, excited eyes, like bis entire royal retinue, the ■ talking lot of them. 'Miriamne,” he murmured, his head sagging. “Bring her! Bring her — my Miriamne GORGES HIMSELF Then he gorged himself on more'food, trying to sooth the ulcers scalding his insides. He also suffered from dropsy, which puffed his tissue with excess fluids, from fevers, convulsions, fierce head pains, burning bddy rash and festering tumors , op his abdomen and feet. The glandular abnormalities and ulcers produced a ravening appetite, and his gluttony only worsened the infections. He had difficulty breathing, and as the surplus liquids clogged his lungs, could do so only when sitting upright. ★ * ★ There was an odor about him, a foulness of breath. And his mind reeled with guilts, horrors mid illusions, imagining his own sons swooping down on him, swords In hand, his murdered wife Mariamne wailing in the night, his guards abandoning him, the hounds, at his throat. At the urging of physicians, 9 spent long hours in the hot baths of Callirrhoe on the Dead and then more baths in warm oil at his palace. But the medications gave only temporary relief, and his disorders increased. WHETS RUMORS Occasionally, he broke into wild lamentations over friends Augustus in Bierut, where the emperor effected a reconciliation. ■*/ * ★ But a rival son, Antipater, by wife of Idumean rather than Jewish stock, revived suspicions against the two. Herod had 200 courtiers confined for questioning. Some, died from the lash, ■refusing to confess anything. But two tall, muscular guards, Jacundus and Tyrannus, who often had ridden with Alexander after Herod cast them off, confessed under torture that his son wanted them to kill the king, saying afterward he had fallen on his own sword. ORDERS BEHEADINGS Adding to Herod’s mounting, feverish alarms, his barber, Trypho, whispered to him that an old soldier, Tero, who had served with Herod in past wars, had urged the barber — in Alexander’s behalf — to slit the king’s throat while trimming his beard. Whipping off the apron, Herod lunged to his feet, shouting for his Galatian guards to lock the barber in irons and also the old comrade-at-arms, Tero, and his son. the Information against Mariamne’s sons? True, true; he remebered, so it was, and Salome now had evidence that the case had been fabricated by deceit, forged confessions and brided accusers in a criminal alliance with Antipater. ★ ★ ★ Where was he? At the Herodium near the Dead Seal for the executions. Herod! lurched to his feet and bolted for the door, yelling for guards. Then he stopped stonily, realizing they already stood there, constantly in his chamber vestibule, and THE NEW- NEW J ^ pii FURNITURE SALE before, likely more than a year, with the intervening period re-quieed for their trip. .. „ ii .Herod previously had in-terogated Judaism’s scholars, learning of their own Scriptural allusions to a coming Deliverer, a “light to the nations” of the earth. „ “One like the Son of Man’ It had been several months he had .doomed at random, and then in. opposite fashion, he would rage violently against them. | , - At the same time, his nabated investigations a tfd enveloping espionage system kept whetting rumors treachery fry his own sons of Mariamne, Alexander and Aristobulus. At one point, Herod put them on trial before Caesar 1q his hsyteria, he ordered them all beheaded, and also the 20(N>fficers In custody. As for Alexander and Aristobulus, he had them bound and taken to his fortified palace in Sebaste and strangled to death there, the place where other members of the Hasmonean dynasty had been executed-That was the last of them, as the deranged Herqd counted it, the end of the royal Jewish clan that had beset and badgered him, threatened andfought him, slandered his own ancestry, the last of that impudent, manageable brood. NOBLER PRINCE He had beat them, finally, he gloated furiously, purged his kingdom of them exterminated them all, his challengers, his comrades ... his cherished Mariamne ... his own sons and hers. However, a still nobler prince, of David’s line, now tented in that realm. 4 Trembling, his sagging body dry with fevers and inflamed with itching. Herod threw off his clothes and shut himself in the steaming palace tepidarium, demanding oils, unguents, toweling, the strigilis on his back, in no orderly sequence, gulping milk and tonics, railing incoherently at frightened| slaves. He staggered to his bed, calling for powders on his flesh, choking»for breath when he tried to lie down, perspiring and dummy .now, huddling < under downy quilts In a chair, his sensibilities drained, oblivious at one moment and starkly alert the next, rigid with un-nameable, skulking perils, then dropping off again into blurred vacuity. SALOME’S WARNING Through watery eyes, croaked the command to seize' Antipater. ’ Shortly, he also rec.eived word! that the Magi, those alien fomenters of treason about an almighty new descendant ofj David to take the throne of the: world, had tricked him, out-| maneuvered him. They had quit ! the country secretly, without leading him to the child.

He! descended to the dungeon cells, and back again, searching the kitchens and storerooms, scattering the domestics in panic. *! ★ ★ . He climbed again to the lofty ornate apartments and roof gardens, in view of the tower named for her, striking out with his sceptej' at wall hangings and jeweled furnishings, panting for air, at times falling to his hands and knees and crawling along the corridors, the hounds behind | him. ★ ★ . ★ “Mariamne. . .

Officials said S. Sgt Dewey Risner was relieved from his managerial assignment at Thule Air Force Base on Sept. 20 as a result of a check made by the Air Fdtce’s auditor general. k ★ * So far It Is the first known Instance of the service acting against an individual in a current crackdown on irregularities In officer and NCO club operations. Secretary of the Air Force Robert. C. Seams'Jr. announced a week ago that the Air Force, like the Arfoy, bad been conducting a probe of club activities and found such irregularities as alleged money kickbacks at clubs In Thailand. WORLDWIDE PROBE The latest disclosure indicates the Ah' Force investigation ranges worldwide. Officials said audits were begun 18 months ago. ' jk ?: A No legal action has yet been taken against Risner pending i review of the auditor general’! report by (he commander of the base, Col. Nat D.

But in general the allegations Involve .sales' of club property such as furniture the charging of long-distance telephone calls and gasoline a in the United States to the club. Military clubs fall in a category referred to as “nonappro-priated-fund activities,” meaning no tax money is involved. But club managers deal in substantial amounts of revenue generated by club sales and services. say that It will be “not only a program to catch up, but an ongoing program” to prevent future pollution. NEED-FOR PREVENTION Ogilvie agreed that the need )a for prevention, rather than merely “punishing polluters.” Knowles expressed support of a “total national program,” but also urged immediate implementation of the present $800-million federal grant program for antipollution construction. Wisconsin, he said, already has scheduled projects that will require all that state’s $17-mil-lion-a-year share. ■* * k Whitcomb and Kellog also said that their states fully support a nationwide program and Whitcomb predicted “gen ‘ accomplishments in the next few years.” : y1 ISS $6-$8 values!

PRIME SATISFACTION Having joined the department at a time of rapid area population growth, he has seen it more than double in size. One of Ms prime points of satisfaction is the development and construction of ths South Oakland Health Center at 27725 Greenfield in Southfield. That building was opened to the public in 1967............. Another-satellite-health center is being considered for the western portion of the county and Berman also feels this to be' of importance. ■ • ★ k k 1 ml M Two of the greatest needs the doctor visualizes for the future of Oakland County are the control of land and water pollution and the provision of health services to the poor and drug and alcoholic victims who are now largely ignored in the medical scheme.

He sees new classifications of medical, aides educated to perform routine doctor functions and augmented by specialists “who have enabled us to reach Imedir-al heights -unique ln the OFFICIALS REACTION 1 His announcement yesterday caught county officials largely unprepared.
