Carter concludesj travels,
to meet economic heads
BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) —
Pres. Carter ends his current
seven-nation tour today with a
bow in Brussels to the group of
countries that underpins U.S.
foreign policy — Western Europe.
"The commitment of the Ameri
can government and people to the
security of Europe is absolute," he
said in Paris.
In Brussels he scheduled six
and a half hours for visits to head
quarters of the European Com
mon Market and the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization, along with
talks with King Baudouin and Bel
gian officiate.
He will be the first American
president to visit Beriaymont, the
13-story steel and glass head
quarters of the European Com
mission, which runs the Common
Market. He will confer for nearly
one and a half hours with Pres.
Roy Jenkins and the 12 other
commissioners in their offices on
the top floor.

House ethics panel
seeks Tongsun Park
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
House ethics committee is seek
ing a voluntary agreement for
Tongsun Park to testify before it,
but is not withdrawing plans to
subpoena him if necessary, Spe
cial Counsel Leon Jaworski said
today.
Park, the businessman-host
accused of trying to buy congres
sional favors for South Korea, has
agreed to questioning in Seoul
and to return to Washington to tes
tify in Justice Department pro
ceedings. But he did not agree to
answer questions in the parallel
inquiry being conducted by the
committee.
The South Korean foreign
ministry said plans for Park’s tes
timony to the Justice Department
might be jeopardized if the com
mittee insisted on its subpoena.
Foreign Minister Park Tongjin,
no relation to Tongsun Park, said
in Seoul that he did not consider
the congressional subpeona a
subject for new negotiations be
tween the two governments.
Nuke challenge rejected
CONDON (AP) — Gilliam
County commissioners have re
jected a challenge to Portland
General Electric Co.’s conditional
land-use permit for two nuclear
reactors near Arlington.
The commissioners Wednes
day afternoon upheld the County
Planning Commission s earlier
approval of the Pebble Springs
nuclear power plants on land that
was zoned for agricultural use.
The Planning Commission ac
tion had been appealed by 17
area residents. They argued at a
hearing last month that adequate
consideration had not been given
to social and economic impacts or
to prepayment of taxes. They also
contended that groundwater
studies were needed.

those who appealed the decision
were "simply opposing Pebble

joint economic interests of nine
countries with a total population
bigger than the United States: Bri
tain, Ireland, France, West Ger
many, Italy, Belgium, Holland,
Denmark and Luxembourg. Three
others have asked to join:
Greece, Spain and Portugal.
‘The United States,” he prom
ised the French, “will give its un
qualified support to what you and
your partners in the nine are doing
to strengthen European coopera
tion — for we see European
strength and unity as a boon and
not as a threat to us."
On Wednesday the U.S. Gov
ernment announced it would act to
support the price of the dollar,
which had been dropping sharply
in Western Europe and Japan.
Until that announcement, the Ber
laymont meeting promised to be
uncomfortable.
Europeans had been pressing
U.S. authorities to do something
because the situation was making
American goods cheaper and
more competitive, contributing to
unemployment and recession in
Europe.
Now the visit will give Jenkins, a
former British chancellor of the
exchequer, more of a chance to
air his pet plan for bringing the
Europeans closer together and
stabilizing currency exchanges: a
pooling of pounds, marks, francs
and others into a single West
European currency.

Rainstorms drown drought
SAN FRANCISCO — Gale-driven rain and snow showers
pounded California again Thursday, further swelling hopes that
the two-year drought may have lost its clutch on the state.
“We are looking good,” said Alex Cunningham, deputy direc
tor of Gov. Edmund Brown Jr.’s Drought Emergency Task Force.
“This storm has dropped significant amounts of rain in northern
California and snow in the Sierra. But we are not out of the woods
yet."
He said reservoirs remain drier than last year despite the
parade of Pacific storms that have marched through California
this winter.
Dollar snaps out of slump
LONDON—The dollar made a dramatic comeback in world
money markets Thursday after the United States government
bought dollars on the open market to snap the currency out of its
year-long decline.
But some foreign exchange dealers called the dollar’s revival
a “knee-jerk” reaction to U.S. intervention in the markets and said
it could be short-lived.
They said the causes of the dollar's troubles, such as a
foreign trade deficit that could total $27 billion for 1977, still
remain to be dealt iwith.

Hays may stage comeback
ST. CLAIRSVILLE, Ohio — Former Rep. Wayne Hays said
Thursday he’ll “run for something” in 1978, two years after leav
ing his seat in Congress in the midst of a sex scandal.
The 66-year-old politician, whose career in politics began in
1939, said he will “make an announcement around the first of
February.
“But what office it will be I have not made a firm decision yet,”
he said.
Hays, who resigned from Congress Sept. 1,1976, said he
may run for the Ohio Legislature, in which he served as senator
1941-42. He said he also is considering a race for the Belmont
County commissioner’s job in his native eastern Ohio.
