The 111 .national General Assembly was certain to give final approval to a compli cated financial formula which was accepted by its budgetary committee Tuesday. The com mitlee consists of all members of the assembly. Soviet, France Opposed The overwhelming commit tee approval left the Soviet bloc and France in isolated opposition to the plan for financing peace operations. The assembly is scheduled to act on the program Thursday, ending a six-week special ses sion called to find means to erase a $100 million deficit and improve the fiscal system. The budgetary committee winds up its business today. Thant's authoriza t i o n to spend money on the Congo and Middle East operations expires June 30. The 11 Soviet YjIoc coun tries and France found vir tually no support in the com mittee vote for their constitu tional position that peace keeping costs must be levied by the Security Council and not by the assembly as was done in the case of operations in the Congo and the Middle East. ' Reduction Granted The plan authorizes Thant lo spend S42.5 million for the Congo and Middle East oper ations through the end of this year. The first S5.5 million is lo be assessed on the regular budgetary scale. For the re mainder. 85 "underdevelop ed" countries will be granted a 55 per cent reduction on their assessments. The result ing S3. 66 million deficit is to be met by voluntary contributions.

It does make sense to study and handle in advance the actual bills and coins and to become familiar with the look, feel, denominations and value of the currencies you will be using in the countries you are visiting.

No More Progress Likely in Airport Noise Abatement Washington - IUPU - A top iooi enmmittee of aeronau tical exDerts said today the aviation industry had gone as far as it could to reduce me airport noise problem. The committee, a special study group established by the Radio Technical commission for Aeronautics, said noise abatement procedures already were affecting the efficiency and "to some degree" the safe ty of the nation's air traffic control system. The RTCA group, composed of experts from the airlines, various government agencies, pilots' union and virtually every segment of the aviation industry, said: "Insofar as re-routing, pilot ing techniques and air traffic flow procedures are concern ed, maximum relief to per- ill y - i ft s vivv tu. ..vv' I ,iw't ft i 1- 4 L :,:MJ&:!xk WWW li li'Hs sons on the ground from air craft noise has been achieved at New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and other areas where aircraft noise has been noted as a problem." The committee s report said the public's "misunderstand ing of the art of flying and what can be done with an airplane results in more and more requests for additional relief which, if eranted. would only further inhibit the safe j and efficient use of aircraft. The present practice of deny ing the use of airport facili ties, such as runways, for noise abatement consideration should be discouraged." The committee 5aid even the present procedures too often took planes away from the most efficient routes, di luted aircraft perform a n c c and contributed to air traffic control problems.
