GREGORY NOKES Associated Press Writer LONDON (AP) - President Carter’s first venture into inter national diplomacy has been a smashing success. Carter was ebullient after the conclusion Sunday of his con ference with the heads of gov ernment of West Germany, France, Britain, Japan, Italy and Canada. The president was especially pleased over the decision to un dertake a detailed study — which Carter said he proposed —of ways to expand the use of nuclear power around the world without also putting the raw materials for nuclear weapons in the hands of more nations. “It was the most divisive and the most difficult question that we addressed,” he said. The president added that he is aware that agreements are one thing and carrying them out is another.He said the experts who will make the study “will follow up to be sure that our conference has not been an idle H KM *»-:r *« gESM - - ~ ifefe ■ ""L™.- ?

YOU’LL LOVE IT. Call In And Carry Out. Girl’s state discussion.” The nuclear study was just one of the results of the summit that the Americans could claim as a success. Carter said there were no disappointments for the United States, and it appeared that he was right. Carter wanted a commitment to progress in world trade ne gotiations, and he got that. Carter also wanted a declara tion against corruption in inter national trade. He got a state ment calling for elimination of “irregular trade practices and improper conduct in inter national trade,” which U.S. of ficials said could help put teeth in anti-bribery legislation cur rently before the U.S. Congress. American officials also praised the decision of the seven key industrial nations to commit themselves to economic growth rates that will “provide a basis for sustained non-in flationary growth, in our coun tries and worldwide.” There also was Carter’s per sonal success in putting his per sonal imprint on the summit and in apparently winning the respect of two leaders he had not met before, President Vale ry Giscard d’Estaing of France and Chancellor Helmut Schmidt of West Germany. Giscard d’Estaing said he liked Carter because “he is a simple man, open, and I think a very determined person.” Schmidt, who supported President Ford in the election and was reported miffed because Carter had not invited him to Washington, had a long breakfast session with the president and pronounced their first meeting “excellent.” Later it was disclosed the chancellor will visit Washington July 13-14. Antonio’s ‘bicreative’ Lou Antonio calls himself “bicreative.” He recently produced the special about former Heisman Trophy winner John Cappelletti and his brother with leukemia, “Something for Joey.” And he’s acting, as the “Dog” in the new TV series, “Dog and Cat.” He also writes scripts and he directs. Antonio recently told TV Scout that there is a dearth of good directors. “But then there is a dearth of good cooks, of good gardeners. To be of high quality in America in any field is rare. Everybody is too busy looking at his watch or a checkbook.” Langford, Cindy Bevil, (second) Tresa Jones, Elizabeth Jinks, Jennifer Chappell, Alicia Jamison, Belinda Jordan, Kim Gillespie, Rochelle Weems, Margaret Reynolds (third) Norma Jones, Dorinda Dowis, Janet Drake, Lona Triplett, Ann Barker, Sylvia Bell and Mrs. Preston Newton, representative of American Legion Auxiliary Post 15. ~ X** Has poor view of two-timing old-timer By Abigail Van Buren C 01977 by The Chicago Tribune N.Y News Synd. Inc. DEAR ABBY: I am a Vietnamese refugee living in Cleveland, Ohio, for two years. From my window I see a man about 75 come to see this lady friend often. I heard from the neighbors that this friendship is over 20 years old. My girlfriend lives in another apartment, and visiting her I saw the same old guy visiting an older woman, every day of the month. I heard that this woman, now in her 80s, was in show business many years ago and has been married five times. I know we have a lot to learn in our new country about customs, habits, etc., but how can parents complain if their children’s morals are bad if the senior citizens act this way? I feel very sorry to see my neighbor fooled by this old wolf. In our country, we respect old people, and they are very respectable. I cannot understand the behavior of your senior citizens. I think this is rather unusual. Please reply. FROM VIETNAM DEAR FROM: It is not possible to know all the facts merely by what you see from your window or hear from your friends. Besides, in this country people of all ages are entitled to privacy. I don’t know what religious beliefs you hold, but The New Testament says: ‘Judge not, that ye be not judged.” Think about it. DEAR ABBY: Up until the last few years we were a very close and happy family. My brother married a nice Jewish girl (we are Catholic). There were married by a judge, which hurt my mom quite a bit because she wanted my brother to be married by a priest. Now my mother found out that my brother is wearing a Star of David on a chain around his neck, and it is just about killing her because before he was married, he always wore a crucifix around his neck. I see no reason why he can’t wear both, do you? It would keep my poor mother from eating her heart out. I would like your opinion. NEWSDAY READERS DEAR READERS: As far as I am concerned there is no reason why your brother can’t wear symbols of both the Jewish and Catholic faith. Many do. Tell your brother how your mother feels, and from then on, it’s his decision. DEAR ABBY: Someone wrote to ask if she should send a gift to a mother who had given birth to a child born with Down’s Syndrome. Thank you for saying yes. I know your advice was sound because I gave birth to such a child. Friends called. They stopped by. They even gave me a surprise shower when my baby was a month old. Here is the message on one card that meant so much to me: God gave this child to you to guide, To love, to walk thru life beside. A little child so full of charms, To fill a pair of loving arms. God picked you out because he knew How safe His child would be with you. God bless friends like that.
