wounded.
Wood was shot and killed
Monday by a bank security

gunman.
Police said the guard, alerted
as the gunman fled, followed
Wood and fired one shot after
commands to halt were ignored.

|I«GIA
IWjjENF.
Wednesday when the construc
tion ditch in which they were
working caved in, burying them
under dirt and rock.

Atlanta.
They were working near the

plex. DeKalb County rescue un

Social Security
increase seen
ATLANTA (UPI) - Sen. Ed
ward J. Gurney, R-Fla., told a
meeting of senior citizens Wed
nesday night he had “every
confidence” Congress would
soon approve a 10 per cent ip
crease in Social Security bene
fits.
Gurney said the increase had
already passed the Senate but
the House refused to go along.
“But I have every confidence
that early in this new Congress,
we will have action on this in
crease and we will make it
retroactive to January 1,” he
said.
Gurney, speaking to about
1,500 older persons at a confer
ence sponsored by the American
Association of Retired Persons
and the National Retired Teach
ers Association, said other pro
posed changes in the Social Se
curity system would be revived
and “hopefully approved in
short order.”
President Nixon has proposed
the 10 per cent figure be cut
to six per cent and Bernard E.
Nash, executive director of the
two associations, attacked that
reduction as an example of
“brutal insensitivity.”
Nash said a minimum in
crease of 15 per cent was neces
sary to keep elderly persons in
what was “already an unaccept
able life style.”

jacking occurred about 30 min
utes after the plane, a DC9, left
Chicago’s O’Hare Airport at
9:02 a.m. EST enroute to Nash
ville, Tenn.
“We know only that a pas
senger ordered it flown to Ha
vana,” the Delta spokesman
said.
The jet, on Delta’s Flight 379,
carried 23 passengers and a
crew of six.
HUNTER’S STORY
SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. (UPI)
—Frederick Augustin, 29, was
stopped by a trooper for a
routine traffic check Wednes
day. When he opened his truck
there were 236 dead ducks and
121 dead pheasants.
Augustin told authorities he
wanted to deliver the dead
birds to the Suffolk County
work farm at Yaphank, for
which he would receive a total
of $1,660 in federal tax
deductions for charitable dona
tions.
He was released in his own
recognizance pending a trial on
charges of illegal shooting and
transportation of game.
Fire ant
spraying
defended
ATLANTA (UPI)-State and
federal agriculture officials ap
pear before a special legislative
subcommittee today to defend
the use of an elaborate aerial
spraying program to wipe out
the fire ant.
The legislative committee has
before it a request for another
$1.5 million in state funds to
continue the controversial oper
ation which has drawn criticism
from environmentalists.
Theinsecticidemir ex—related
to DDT—is the center of the
controversy. Critics claim the
chemical is harmful to marine
life and may even be damaging
to humans who eat infected
shrimp, oysters and other sea
food.
Agriculturists argue that the
pesky ant delivers a poisonous
sting, has caused several
deaths, and could spread
throughout the country if efforts
to eliminate it in the South are
abandoned.
So far the fire ant has been
eradicated on several million
acres in Georgia by spraying
the insecticude from a convert
ed World War II bomber. A
spokesman for the state agri
culture department said there
has been no evidence of the in
secticide in food, but he admit
ted scientists are still uncertain
about some aspects of the
chemical—such as how long it
remains in the environment.
Three environmental or
ganizations Wednesday asked a
federal court to halt Georgia’s
fire and eradication program,
arguing that the program
violates the U. S. Constitution.
Attorney Michael Padnos,
who filed the suit in U. S. Dis
trict Court in Atlanta, said the
governments of Canada and
Mexico may be invited to join
in the action.
Padnos contends the aerial
applications of large quantities
of a pesticide aimed at killing
the ants has resulted in viola
tions of the Migratory Bird
Treaty among the United
States, Mexico and Canada.
The organizations in the suit
are the Georgia Sportsmen’s
Federation, the Coastal Georgia
Audubon Society, and the Save
America’s Vital Environment
(SAVE).

Prince Charles
rumples tailors
LONDON (UPI) -Ice cubs
tinkled in glasses. A few feet
shuffled. Otherwise silence.
That was the greeting Prince
Charles received from 460
immaculately dressed master
tailors and fashion critics
Wednesday night when he
arrived at a gala dinner
wearing a rumpled old sports
jacket.
“I don’t know whether it was
just stiff upper lip or not, but
nobody batted an eyelid when
he walked into the dining
suite,” said Capt. lan Shiell,
general secretary of the Master
Tailors Benevolent Association.
It was the 22-year-old prince’s
way of replying to criticism in
the trade magazine Tailor and

Cutter, which said last week he
followed the “cult of studied
shabbiness” in his dressing
habits.
While the king-to-be’s tailor
hit the roof over the article, the
prince maintained a regal
silence.
“I can’t resist taking the
mickey out of people occasion
ally,” Charles told the audience
after taking off the five-year
old sports jacket he wears
while hunting and changing it
for tails.
Underneath the jacket he
wore a white dress shirt and
the blue sash of the Order of
the Garter. A white tie, black
trousers, and black shoes
completed his formal attire.
