President Nixon Wekomes Japanese Prime Minister Monument Built for Rio’s

Founder Lacking His Body

By SPENCER DA VIS Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) — President Nixon welcomed Japan’s Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka as *an equal partner working for a cause to which we are equally devoted—peace for the whole world." The greeting amid the pomp and ceremony of an official welcome marked the start of two days of talks between the

two leaders.

Tanaka said that relations between Japan and the United States have “expanded greatly both in breadth and in depth." He said it is “all the more important for the peoples of our two countries, as partners, to develop a full grasp of the national characteristics and the social fabric of each other.” Tanaka omitted a reference to a “lack of understanding” between nations and peoples in his prepared arrival remarks

and substituted instead the need to “deepen understanding

among peoples.”

Nixon welcomed Tanaka with a prolonged handshake and exchange of remarks when the Japanese leader stepped from his limousine on the South Lawn of the White House. A 19-gun salute was fired and the Japanese and American an-

thems were played.

Mrs. Nixon was on hand for

AFNB Plans Tallest Building

INDIANAPOLIS (AP)—Plans for a new downtown office building, at least 50 stories high, have been announced by American Fletcher National Bank. The building, which would be the state's tallest, would be at the corner of Pennsylvania and Ohio streets. Frank E. McKinney Jr., bank chairman, said architects for the new building will be hired within a few months. He confirmed the general plans Monday following executive committee approval to buy

three of the four buildings now on the site. The three buildings to be purchased by the bank are the Hume Mansur Building, the Bankers Trust and Wilking Music Co., all on the same block where AFNB bank offices now are located. The site is across the comer from the Indiana National Bank building, the tallest in the city. The fourth building now houses Kittle’s Home Furnishings, which is opening a new store next month at a suburban shopping center, and McKinney said eventual purchase of the

downtown building is “very favorable.” McKinney said demolition of the existing buildings would start in late 1974 with construction to begin the first half of 1975. BANKS CONTINUE BOND ROLE WASHINGTON (AP) - More than $56 billion worth of U.S. savings bonds are currently outstanding, and Treasury officials expect at least 125 million new bonds will be issued this year.

the ceremony, with Secretary of State and Mrs. William P. Rogers and Adm. and Mrs. Thomas Moorer. Moorer is the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of

Staff.

Nixon and Tanaka, who met 11 months ago in Hawaii, are expected to talk about a proposed American-Japanese-So-viet oil and gas deal in Siberia, joint approaches to trade, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia and European security.

NOT A GOOD YEAR FOR BLIMP PILOTS AKRON, Ohio (AP) — The most difficult thing about flying a blimp is landing a job as its pilot. , _ . The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company regularly receives more applications from prospective blimp pilots than it can possibly use. Most recently, a record 150 persons applied for three pilot training jobs — one for each of the Goodyear blimps based in Miami, Houston and Los Angeles. The unusually heavy flow of blimp pilot applications has been attributed to the increased popularity of the flying balloons.

Resumption Of Program WASHINGTON (AP) — A U.S. District Court judge ordered the Nixon administration today to resume a program under which it subsidizes mortgage interest payments for lowincome people buying farm

homes.

Judge Charles R . Richey said an 18-month suspension of the program, imposed by' the Farmers Home Administration in January, was unconstitutional. There have been a series of court rulings in recent weeks denying the constitutionality of Nixon’s withholding of funds approved by Congress. □spending on the source, estimates of the amount the President has impounded range from $8.7 billion to $18 billion. Nixon has said he will withhold funds when necessary to fight inflation. Amtrok Hearings WASHINGTON (AP) - The Interstate Commerce Commission Tuesday announced it will hold public hearings in 21 cities in September to discuss Amtrak’s proposed discontinuance of the National Limited and the Floridian passenger trains.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — When Portuguese explorer Estacio de Sa founded lovely Rio in 1565, he never guessed that more than 400 years later the Brazilian government and the Roman Catholic Church would be feuding over his bones. The government built an expensive monument to Sa with a special place for the founder’s body. But when top officials assembled for the inauguration earlier this year, the body wasn’t there. Sa’s remains stayed in St. Sebastian Church here, in accordance with the hero’s final wish. The monument rapidly has become a city landmark. It faces Guanabara Bay and famous Sugarloaf Mountain, and tens of thousands of people go by it every day in cars and buses between residential Copacabana and downtown offices. Few, however, know about the behind-the-scenes fight over the body. “I want to be buried in the

place where St. Sebastian is kept,” Sa said as he lay dying in 1567 from an arrow wound he received in a battle against FYench explorers who also wanted Brazil. Sa had brought a statue of St. Sebastian with him from Portugal to give him spiritual guidance on his mission to the New World. St. Sebastian eventually became Rio’s patron saint, and a church was built in his honor. Over the centuries the St. Sebastian Church here moved several times. Each time the statue and the body went with it. But now that Rio has an offipal monument to its founder, where will Sa finally repose? Few people were willing to talk. ‘T’m not commenting,” The Rev. Andre Vital of the current St. Sebastian Church told a reporter. “We haven’t been contacted officially by the state about any of this.” The Roman Catholic archbishop of Rio, Eugenio Cardinal Salles, also had nothing to say. 'Die archdiocese press office noted that the Sa affair was ‘‘under study.” “The government does not intend to move Sa’s body now, but it will at some opportune

time in the future,” Guanabara State Culture Secretary Fernando Barata said. “The new monument is an act of gratitude to Sa.” Brazilian history is on the Church’s side. Both Emperor Pedro II and President Epitacio Pessoa, Brazilian leaders of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, issued decrees saying Sa’s body belonged in Rio’s St. Sebastian Church. When a St. Sebastian Church was demolished in 1922 for a downtown expansion program, the government moved the body to another chapel for safekeeping. When the present church was finished in 1931, the government made sure Sa was returned to his proper resting place. This church also has a mural above the main door depicting the founding of the city. The new monument to Sa is,a graceful bayfront pyramid designed by Lucio Costa, the famous planner of Brazil’s inland capital, Brasilia. It faces across an inlet to the place where Sa fell in battle. Events are at an impasse now, but observers say the Church has a slight edge in the dispute because it has the

RIO FOUNDER Estacio de Sa is buried in St Sebastian Catholic Church, where a mural depicts the Portuguese explorer’s arrival in Rio in 1565. Electric Truck Will Be Tested

By BOB COOPER Associated Press Writer LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Modern technology will be used to dredge up a century-old dream when Kentucky Utilities Co. puts its first electric truck on the streets here about the first of next year. The silent, pollution-free truck is designed to carry two or three men and about 1,000 pounds of equipment, although no decision has been made on its specific use yet. It will be one of about 100 vehicles to be tested, in regular use, as a part of an industrywide program where privately owned electric companies are assuming a large share in research. Electric vehicles were contemplated before the turn of the century and were manufactured in the early 1900s, but finally faded when they couldn’t compete with the internal combustion engine. Those cars could travel only about 20 miles an hour and had a range of only 20 miles before they needed an eight to 12-hour recharge. However, increased awareness of pollution and the immin e n t fuel shortage has prompted another try at electronic travel, this time with ranges and speeds comparable to other modern vehicles. The Kentucky Utilities truck will have a range of 68 miles at 20 miles an hour, 42 miles at 30 miles an hour and 30 miles at 40 miles an hour. A company spokesman said this range is suitable for use as a service truck. It can be recharged at night. Kentucky Utilities is getting the truck through its participation in the Electric Vehicle Council, a conglomerate of electric companies, which made a survey showing some

55 million Americans would be interested in buying electric cars. Such a car, the council said, would have a top speed of 40 miles an hour and a range of about 150 miles, to be used for in-town driving in most cases. The Federal Power Commission has predicted 38 million electric cars will be on the streets within less than 20 years. Although such an upsurge in electric vehicles would help alleviate the gasoline shortage, fears have been expressed about a possible strain on the nation’s supply of electricity. But members of the council said studies indicate most of the cars would be recharged at night, when demands for electricity are low, and would have little effect on the supply. Anderson Duo Sought For There Robbery WILDWOOD Fla. (AP)Sumter County sheriffs deputies said two men from Anderson, Ind., who reported they had escaped from kidnapers were wanted for robbery in Anderson. The identities of the men were not released immediately. A sheriffs office spokesman in this city 60 miles northeast of Orlando said, “We’re not treating this as a kidnaping. We called in the FBI and won’t release anything more until we learn more about it, but we confirmed that they are wanted for robbery in Anderson." The spokesman said the pair called police from a Wildwood truckstop Monday night and reported they had been kidnaped in Indiana but had managed to escape from their abductors.
