(UPI) Jury selection starts in 3rd Donalsonville trial DONALSONVILLE, Ga. (UPI) —Jury selection for confessed killer Wayne Carl Coleman, 26, the last of three men to be tried for the mass murder of a quiet south Georgia farm family, be gan Monday in the aging Semi nole County courthouse. Attorneys for the Parkville, Md., prison escapee planned to question each juror at length about his knowledge of the first two trials in which Carl Isaacs, 19, and George Dungee, 35, each were convicted and sen tenced to death. “I think it will be more diffi cult to get a jury now than it was for the other two trials,” one defense lawyer said. “They already have two jury verdicts behind them. If a jury turned this man loose, they would come in for criticism from their own community.” Coleman confessed last May to the murder of a Pennsylvan ia youth, killed several days be fore the five men and a woman were found shot in the back near this tiny community only a few miles from the Georgia- Florida line. Sources close to the defense said Coleman signed a confes sion admitting he alone killed all of the Georgia victims, but they promised to fight any pros cution attempts to introduce the confession as evidence. Isaacs, Coleman and Dungee all escaped from a Maryland prison camp last May. They picked up 16-year-old Billy Isaacs, a runaway from a re formatory, before allegedly driv ing south in a stolen car and ending up here. Billy, Carl’s brother and a half-brother to Coleman, turned state’s evidence after murder charges against him were dropped.

(UPI)-A police dragnet in the Tampa area paid off when convicted hit-and-run killer Raymond McMahon was recaptured Sunday night a day after escaping from a state men tal hospital in Chattahoochee. McMahon, who once begged to be executed rather than sent to jail, was arrested by Hills borough County deputies at 9:45 p. m. while making a phone call fromUniversityCommunity Hos pital. He was taken to Tampa and offered no resistance, said po police. The Florida and Georgia alert for the scaper centered in the Tampa Bay area where police said McMahon might attempt to visit one of his two wives. McMahon, 32, was convicted of last summer’s hit-and - run deaths of two young Tampa sis ters. He was in the prison ward at the north Florida Mental Hospital in Chattahoochee until his escape Saturday night. Police said he staged a fight to expedite his escape. BRRRRrrr WEST IAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPI) — Six of 43 hardy Purdue University men braved 7 degree below zero tempera tures during the weekend to win the Fourth Annual Cary Quadrangle Nude Winter Olym pics here. They were clad only in tennis shoes and hats. Forty three runners entered the three-mile contest—which began in 1970 as a prank between residence halls on the men’s quadrangle. The winners completed the race this year in 59 minutes, compared to one hour and 15 minutes last year. The wind may have proven a factor in the small number of finishers. The wind chill index at the time of the race was 36 degrees below zero. The six winners shared a total purse of $52. rey, 57, and his three sons, Jer ry, 35, Chester, 32, and Jimmy, 25. Billy said all three men tor tured and raped Jerry’s petite young wife, Mary, 25, before Dungee shot her in the back and left her nude body in a woods. Sources said Coleman con fessed to all six murders to “save his brother and half brother.” The four men were captured May 18 near Welch, W.Va., The FBI agent who questioned Cole man, Robert D. Warden of Blue field, W.Va., aid he was a “cool customer who showed no emo tion” as he admitted killing Richard W. Miller, 19, of Mc- Connellsburg, Pa. Miller disappeared after he jumped into his car to chase the “strangers” who stole a neighbor’s truck. His car was found next to Mary Alday’s body. Coleman went with police to Hancock, Md., to show them where he left Miller’s body, but it was not until several weeks later that the body finally was found. Ask IRS This column of questions and answers on federal tax matters is provided by the local office of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and is published as a public service to taxpayers. The column answers questions most frequently asked by taxpayers. Q. Has the IRS made any changes in the 1973 income tax returns? A. Yes, the following major improvements to the 1973 forms have been made: Elimination of Schedule B for reporting details of divi dends and interest; Elimination of the require ment to list contributions for which the taxpayer has can celled checks or receipts; Elimination of the require ment to list names and dates for claiming payments to doc tors, dentists and hospitals; Reduction in the number of revenue sharing questions to a single item; Placement of two items re lating to the 1976 Presidential Election Campaign Fund check off; one giving taxpayers an opportunity to check off for 1973 and the other providing taxpayers who failed to check Medvedevs vs. Solzhenitsyn Which way to freer Russia? (EDITOR s NOTE: The handful of Soviet dissidents who still remain at liberty are arguing bitterly with each other about the right way to struggle for the freer Russian they all say they want Some, like Alexander Solzhenitsyn, whose indictment of the Soviet labor camp system was published re cently, see head-on confrontation with the Soviet system as the only way Others want to go about it more circumspectly This is the first of two articles prepared by The Economist) By NEA/London Economist News Service LONDON - (LENS) - The civil war among the Soviet Union's dissidents was touched off by an appeal which the physicist Professor Andrei Sakharov addressed to western governments in August. At a press conference in his Moscow flat he urged the west to use economic pressure to compel the Soviet government to allow free emigration for any of its citizens who want to leave the country. Sakharov specifically en dorsed Senator Henry Jackson's campaign to make American trade concessions to Russia conditional on Leonid Brezhnev’s allowing more emigration. He said that detente could be very dangerous to the west unless it opened Russia’s gates: it would amount to the “the west’s surrender to Russia’s real or imaginary might’’. And it would mean the per petuation of the Soviet peo ple’s subjugation. Predictably, the Soviet press took sharp exception to Sakharov’s remarks. It also attacked Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s observation Auto color of year: blue By NEA/London Economist News Service DETROIT - (LENS) - America's assembly lines churned out 9,668,164 cars last year. That is not a figure that will be repeated in 1974, 1975 or any year as far as can be seen through the gloom that has descended on Detroit. Things got off to a wretched start this year when the American motor in dustry announced that it was laying off 290,000 workers, or almost 40 percent of its labor force. The original estimates that production this year would drop by only off on their 1972 returns a chance to do so; and Elimination of limitations on amount of dividend or interest NEED TAX HELP.’ CALL IRS TOLL FREE IN METRO ATLANTA CALL 522-0050 ALL OTHERS IN GEORGIA CALL 1-SOO-222-1010 income received for filing the 1040A short form. Q. I’ve hired a private nurse to take care of my sick wife, and I’ll have to pay social secu rity taxes on the wages I pay her. Can I deduct the social security taxes I pay on the nurse’s wages as a medical ex pense? A. Yes. Under such circum stances, the social security taxes may be deducted as a medical expense. Q. I’m thinking of becoming a tenant-stockholder in a coop erative apartment. If I do, does this mean I’ll be able to deduct my mortgage interest and real estate taxes? A. Yes. A tenant-stockholder in a cooperative apartment may deduct his portion of the interest payments on the co operative housing corporation’s indebtedness and his share of the real estate taxes on the co operative. However, this is only the case when no more than 20 percent of the gross income of the cooperative comes from sources other than tenant-stockholders. Q. Is it true that I can make a no-charge long distance call to that liberal opinion in the west was too preoccupied with petty tyrannies in the non-communist world to notice the bigger one in Russia. Rather less predictably, Sakharov and to a lesser ex tent Solzhenitsyn came under fire from some of their fellow-dissidents. Roy Med vedev, whose book on Stalin ism appeared in the under ground publication network two years before it reached the west in 1971, was one of the critics. Medvedev, unlike Sakharov, says he is a Marx ist-Leninist, and he voiced his misgivings about the Sakharov thesis in Novem ber in the Hamburg weekly Die Zeit. They were closely echoed in a lecture his geneticist twin brother, Zhores, gave in London in November. Zhores Medvedev was allowed to travel to Britain last Janu ary for a research appoint ment. but was deprived of his Soviet passport on August 7 and banned from reentering Russia. The Medvedevs' case against Sakharov and Solzhenitsyn rests on the charge that they have ig nored one of the basic realities of the Soviet situa tion: the fact that the liberals in Russia are too weak to bring about liberalization by their own efforts. The mass of ordinary people — in dustrial workers, collective farmers, and the rest of the rank and file of Soviet life — are passive and apathetic. So any move towards liberaliza tion. say the Medvedevs, around 8 per cent are al ready looking absurdly op timistic. The fall from 1973’s pinna cle will be sharp. More than 20 assembly plants have al ready been shut around the country. Few of the big 1974 models are selling, and these are the staple fare of Detroit; more popular, but less prof itable. small cars are mainly manufactured outside the city. The men now laid off can expect no more than two weeks' work this month or in February, and more than 50,000 men have already King center drive opens ATLANTA (UPl)—Civic lead ers began their drive today to raise $1.5 million for a down town office and recreation com plex dedicated to slain civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Mayor Maynard Jackson, At lanta’s first black mayor, pre sided at a luncheon where the money goals were outlined.

LOSE A POUND A DAY AND MORE New Vitamin “E” Plus “C” Diet Gives Fast Weight Loss LOS ANGELES (SpeciaD- New scientific discoveries have now produced a Vitamin E Plus “C” diet that quickly works wonders on overweight people, and reportedly is gain ing great popularity across the country with glowing reports of easy weight loss “while still eating almost as much as you want.” Those who follow the simple Vitamin E diet report an aver age loss of at least a pound a day and even more without exercise or starvation. Nutri tionists files are bulging with happy testimonials from for merly overweight people who are now trim and slim again. Best of all. you can still eat almost as much as you want of the "forbidden foods” like steak, chicken, fish, sauces, gravies, bacon and eggs and still lose weight.

Kings Rd. • Los Angeles, CA 90048 must come from the top: from the Russian leaders themselves. Pressure from the outside world can help, but only up to a point. The argument for caution and restraint by the west is spelled out. Brezhnev, for ex ample, is keen to get econom ic help from the west, and appears to be ready to make some concessions to western opinion in order to get it. But too much foreign pressure, and especially anything that looks like an ultimatum, would in the Medvedevs' view only upset the ap plecart. Roy Medvedev specifically claims in his Die Zeit article that Senator Jackson’s suc cess in attaching political strings to the trade bill before Congress would make emigration from the Soviet Union more difficult, not less. He also argues that Sakharov and Solzhenitsyn are unwise to accept the sup port of western anti-commu nists whose main concern is not to encourage “socialism with a human face’’ but to undermine the whole Marx ist idea. The history of Russia before and after 1917 pro vides a good many examples to back the Medvedev thesis that moves towards liberalization in Russia have to come from the man at the top, whether he is the cxar or the Communist party’s gen eral secretary. One of the most recent ex amples of this was Khrushchev’s personal deci sion in 1962 to allow’ the publication of Solzhenitsyn’s been sacked outright. Since Detroit ranks among America's most violent cities even when the motor indus try is thriving, as last year, the social cost of the slump and widespread unemploy ment is likely to be high. Much of the blame for this reversal must be aimed at Detroit's motor bosses, who created for the 1974 year many new models that were heavier and consumed more fuel than ever before. These cars are now failing to sell despite the massive dis counts offered by traders. To add to its troubles General He would have been 45 Tues day.

The publication of that book had a profound impact on public opinion in Russia and subse quently helped to stiffen resistance to the neo-stalinist methods adopted by Khrushchev's successors. The trouble is not just that it is hard to get a Russian leader into a mood of want ing to be liberal; it is even harder to keep him there. There is also some validity in the Medvedevs' argument that the vast majority of Rus sians have remained aloof from the dissidents’ civil rights campaign. They have not enrolled themselves in the struggle for more freedom of expression. Even the manager class, which some people in the west re garded in the 1960 s as the likeliest engine of a push to wards liberalization, has re mained relatively passive. So far the dissidents have failed to find the Soviet equivalent of that slogan, “No taxation without repre sentat-onl”, which the Amer ican revolutionaries launched in the eighteenth century to rally their people against British power. Os course, it is desperately hard for the dissidents to get their argument across inside the Soviet Union when the Communist party keeps its monopoly of control over ev ery form of legal com munication in Russia.
