Canal treaty
Washington-President Carter predicts the Panama
Canal treaty will be ratified by the Senate and he intends
to hold a televised fireside chat soon to explain the terms
of the treaty to the American people.
In an interview released Saturday with a group of
editors, Carter said he thinks the "consequences would be
very severe" if the Senate rejects the treaty.
The President gave no details for his fireside chat.
U.S. rent bill
Kansas City-By building in downtown Omaha, the
U.S. government would cut its rental bill by at least
$650,000 a year.
Records in the General Services Administration office
in Kansas City show that seven years ago, the U.S. govern
ment was spending $65,066 a year on office rentals in the '
Omaha-Council Bluffs area.
Today, more than $900,000 is required to rent all the
office space needed, most of it for agencies squeezed out
of over-crowded federal bujjdings in downtown Omaha.
Not capitalism
Tokyo-The People's Republic of China called on its
people Saturday to help raise "enormous funds" to build
a modern Socialist state, but it insisted this was "entirely
different" from capitalism.
The call to "increase accumulation for the state" came
in an editorial in the People's Daily newspaper of Peking.
It gave further evidence that China's new pragmatic
. leadership docs not intend to let ideological purity stunt
, economic growth and prosperity.
CIA knew
' Washington-The CIA had reason to know as far back
as the early 1960's that Tongsun Park, a central figure in
investigations of South Korea influence-buying on Cajpitol
Hill, had ties with the Korean CIA.
An American CIA station chief in Seoul who met him
frequently said he regards Park as an important "agent of
influence."
In addition to- Park's official Korean role, he had at
least circumstantial ties with the American CIA through
his prominent membership in two groups.
Justice Dept. and congressional investigators, as part of
their inquiries into the Korean lobbying effort, have been
monday, august 29, 1977
trying to determine what the American CIA knew about
the campaign and what it told law enforcement
authorities about it.
'Bigger chunk'
Washington-The people who get food from the farm
to the consumers are continuing to get a bigger chunk of
what Americans spend to feed themselves, the Agriculture
Department srys. .
A family of three will spend an average $1,945 this
year for food produced on American farms, $50 more
than for the same 65 items last year, according to a
government analysis.
The farmers share of the hypothetical family's is down
$4, while middlemen have increased their share $54.
That's the same jump the processers, wholesalers and re
tailers experienced from 1975 and 1976.
The projection for this year said farmers-whose in
comes are dropping sharply-will receive $745 of what the
hypothetical family spends on food.
This is the second year in a row that their share will be
down. Last year, they received $35 less from the hypo
thetical family's spending than in 1975. Middlemen,
meanwhile, are expected to account for $1,200 of the
1977 budget.
