The number of tanks and armored vehicles in Europe available for use by U.S. reinforcements in the event of war is less than 50% of authorized strength, according to Army Secretary Martin R. Hoffmann. However, he said, Army units in Europe are ready for immediate combat. Hoffmann was replying to a charge by Senator Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minnesota) that a government report showed that poor management and equipment shortages had impaired the units’ combat readiness. Hoffman said Humphrey’s charge was based on out-of-date information, but acknowledged that the military stockpile had been reduced by the dispatch of supplies to Israel during the 1973 Mideast war.
The new Spanish government of Premier Adolfo Suarez cleared its first big challenge when thousands of postal workers agreed to end a five-day strike.Thousands of striking postal workers who had tied up the mails through most of Spain this week returned to work today after a major change in Government labor policy led to an agreement. The only exception was in Barcelona where a majority of letter carriers decided during a meeting to continue their strike. Informal negotiations carried on yesterday in a cafe near the central post office in Madrid between Government officials and an illegal national commission of postal workers ended early this morning with a wage raise, and official recognition of the right of postal workers to organize and negotiate their terms of work. The government, on another front, faced growing demands for amnesty for an estimated 600 political prisoners. One woman was reported killed when police fired on a group of demonstrators in Santurce, a suburb of Bilbao. Additional mass rallies to demand freedom for political prisoners were scheduled in Madrid, Barcelona and other cities.
Prosecution authorities in Zurich have abandoned their case against Urs Peter Haemmerli, the Swiss physician who became a central figure in an international debate on mercy killing. The investigation began in January of last year when it became known that intravenous feeding of some terminally ill patients had been replaced by a method in which water containing no nutrients is fed into the veins. Haemmerli had been detained briefly and suspended from his post as head of a Zurich clinic, but no formal charges were filed and he was reinstated.
The administrator of West Berlin’s prisons resigned, attributing his action to the escape of four women prisoners earlier in the week. Hermann Oxfort, who simultaneously resigned as deputy mayor, said he personally was innocent of any failure “but the escape of the anarchists was such a shocking event with such great political impact that it demands action on my part.” The resignation of Oxfort, a Free Democrat, had been demanded by the opposition Christian Democratic Party and by some members of the Social Democratic Party, which runs the city in coalition with the Free Democrats. One of the four escapees, Inge Viett, was one of six Germans whose release was demanded by pro‐Palestinians who hijacked a jetliner from Israel to Entebbe, Uganda, on June 27.
Turkey freed a Lithuanian father and son who hijacked a Soviet airliner to Turkey in 1970, and an Interior Ministry spokesman said they could leave whenever they wanted. They had been freed under a general amnesty two years ago but placed under house arrest. Two weeks ago, they escaped from house arrest but surrendered to authorities after contacting the U.S. Embassy in Ankara. The Soviet Union strongly protested the release of Pragas and Algirdas Brazinskas, mentioning that its original request for extradition of the two had not been honored. No reason was given for the decision to free the two, for whose return the Soviet Union has been pressing since the hijacking. A stewardess was killed and two other people here injured when the Lithuanians took over the plane on a flight inside the Soviet Union.
After two years of revolutionary instability. Portugal is now endowed with new democratic institutions. The question is, will they work? Next Wednesday, the new democratically elected President will pledge to uphold the new Constitution before the new National Assembly and then name a new chief of government. The democratic powers will be faced with the enormous task of reconstructing Portuguese society, which has been disrupted at every level. The revolution of April 25, 1974, destroyed the social, political and economic structures of the right‐wing dictatorship that had ruled Portugal for nearly half a century, but it has been unable to replace them with a viable order.
Austria’s Parliament has approved controversial legislation to allow minority groups to use their own languages in government, business and schools and on signposts. The country’s three parliamentary parties agreed last, week to the minority‐rights package which has drawn strong opposition from groups of Slavic origin despite the promise of greater privileges. Slovene groups in the southern province of Carinthia, the area chiefly affected, specifically oppose a special census in November to determine the size of the minority population and have threatened to boycott it.
An explosion in Seveso, Italy, polluted a large area in the neighborhood of Milano with dioxin, with many evacuations and a large number of people affected by the toxic cloud. The industrial accident occurred around 12:37 PM on 10 July 1976, in a small chemical manufacturing plant approximately 20 kilometers (12 mi) north of Milan in the Lombardy region of Italy. It resulted in the highest known exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD) in residential populations, which gave rise to numerous scientific studies and standardized industrial safety regulations, including the European Union’s Seveso III Directive. This accident was ranked eighth in a list of the worst man-made environmental disasters by Time magazine in 2010.
Right‐wing Christians carrying new United States arms and riding in Soviet ve hicles, made assaults today on leftist positions from Beirut to Tripoli. Hospital officials said more than 200 people had been killed. The Damascus radio, monitored in Cyprus, said the death toll was 3,866 for the last three days, the highest in the 16‐month civil war that has taken 32,000 lives by Lebanese estimates. Palestinian guerrillas asserted today that Syrian forces had driven an armored wedge into two large Palestinian camps in northern Lebanon and were engaged in “savage combat” with guerrillas. The report could not be confirmed. The camps are on the coast just north of the port of Tripoli. A prominent politician called on guerrillas who control the western half of Beirut to execute thieves on the spot to end a wave of crime flourishing in the anarchy that has followed the collapse of Lebanon’s central government.
Christians with new American rifles drove Soviet‐made armored cars that had not previously been seen in Lebanon as they continued on the offensive in the north and in the capital. In eastern Beirut, several thousand Christian fighters, behind a barrage of mortar and recoilless rifle fire, assaulted guerrillas and leftist Muslims at Tall Zaatar, the besieged Palestinian refugee camp. The defenders repelled the attack and held out for a 19th day. Tall Zaatar once housed 20,000 refugees but most have fled the fighting. On the northern front, 50 miles or so from Beirut, Palestinians said Syria had strengthened its forces bombarding the port of Tripoli, Lebanon’s second largest city. Christians attacked south and east of the Palestinian‐leftist stronghold at the port. A fire at an American‐owned refinery near Saida in southern Lebanon continued out of control. Guerrillas said the fire had been started by Syrian shells fired last night from positions just outside the city, another Palestinian‐leftist stronghold.
Indian atomic-energy officials, worried over the uncertainty of a regular supply of enriched uranium from the United States for the American-built power plant at Tarapur, near here, are considering alternative sources. “We cannot afford a breakdown of the plant.” said J. C. Shah, chairman of the Atomic Power Commission “We have to consider all possible steps to insure its uninterrupted running.” He said he hoped the United States would get over the hurdles and resume regular supplies in accordance with a 1963 agreement. His hope was only partly realized when the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission authorized nine tons of enriched uranium, enough to last six months. The commission had been holding up permission for the shipment since December because of objections raised by a group of environmentalists, who asserted that the Tarapur plant had no safeguards against serious pollution. Other influential groups have maintained that India, misusing the fuel and know‐how provided by the United States, was making a nuclear bomb. India, exploded a nuclear device two years ago as “an experiment in peaceful use of nuclear energy.” Indian officials deny that they plutonium, a product of the spent uranium fuel used for the nuclear device, came from Tarapur.
The death toll from an earthquake two weeks ago in Indonesia’s West Irian province on New Guinea has been fixed at nearly 370 people, with another approximately 5,000 missing. the government reported. Social Welfare Minister Mintaredja earlier had said as many as 9,000 people were killed in the quake. No official explanation was given for the discrepancy in the casualty figures, but communication with the stricken region is difficult because of mountainous terrain. President Suharto of Indonesia declared a national disaster in the remote mountainous area stricken over the last two weeks, the provincial governor said.
Peru’s leftist military Government has put down its first revolt since taking power almost a year ago. Key military officers declared their loyalty to the Government of President Francisco Morales Bermudez after a generally known to support free enterprise staged a brief revolt yesterday with a few enlisted men. General Carlos Bobbio, head of Peru’s Military School of Instruction for enlisted men on the outskirts of Lima, barricaded himself in the school for about two hours before giving up, officials said. His fate was not known, but there were unconfirmed reports that he had been exiled. Informed sources said that General Bobbin, only recently promoted to his rank, had proposed a more capitalist approach to solving Peru’s economic problems and was told to resign.
At least 12 people were killed and 50 injured in tribal clashes early today in Djibouti. capital of the French Red Sea territory of the Mars and Issas, French sources there reported. The clashes between Issa and Afar tribesmen started shortly after midnight, the sources said. “Issa tribesmen attacked the Afar quarter just before 1 AM,” a French resident told Reuters by telephone. “A big battle resumed at dawn, with hundreds of Afar and Issa tribesmen in a bloody confrontation,” the resident said, adding: “At least 12 people were killed and 50 were seriously injured.” He said local police had difficulty in restoring order.
Ethiopia hanged 18 military leaders and merchants who had been convicted of “crimes ranging from plotting a coup to food hoarding.” The most prominent deaths were those of Ethiopian Air Force Major Sisay Harte, who was the third-ranking member of the governing Provisional Military Administrative Council, and General Getachew Nadew, the Ethiopian Military Governor of Eritrea.
Four foreign mercenary soldiers, one American and three British, were executed by firing squad in Angola, following their trial in Luanda. Daniel Gearhart of Kensington, Maryland, had quit a low-paying job at the U.S. National Institutes of Health five months earlier after having advertised his services in Soldier of Fortune magazine, had left “on the promise of a $300-a-week salary and a $1,000 bonus as a mercenary”, and left behind a wife and four children. He had been captured only four days after arriving in Angola before participating in Canada. Costas Georgiou, a native of Cyprus and British Army veteran who called himself “Colonel Tony Callan”, died along with Britons John Derek Barker and Andrew McKenzie. Angola’s president Agostinho Neto rejected pleas for clemency and commented “Every Angolan remembers the vile and cruel behavior of the mercenaries who have sown death and despair in African countries in return for pay, trying in this way to put a brake on the higher interests of a people for a few coins.”
A gunfight between troops of Rhodesia and Mozambique erupted across the border, a Rhodesian military communique said today. One Mozambique soldier was reported killed. The incident, in the southeastern corner of Mozambique, took place when Mozambique soldiers were seen setting up an ambush just before a Rhodesian patrol was to pass nearby, the communique said. Shots have been exchanged almost daily for two months in the area, but this was the first reported casualty. Mozambique, a former Portuguese colony, has been providing sanctuary for black nationalist guerrillas trying to overthrow the white minority Government of Prime Minister Ian D. Smith of Rhodesia.
Police officials in South Africa have rejected demands for the release of several dozen black juveniles arrested during the rioting in the Johannesburg area three weeks ago. They were among a total of 1,298 people detained during the rioting. Some of the adults arrested have since been discharged or released on bail, but police investigations into the juveniles will fail to appear in court, have refused to let them go. “What do you think would happen if we left them to run around the streets?” said Brig. J. F. Roos, the officer heading police investigations into the riots. “We would never find them again.” The continued imprisonment of the youths became an issue after a local reporter glimpsed several of them in cells at John Vorster Square, the central police complex here. The reporter said that those he saw were raggedly dressed, mostly shoeless and included one boy who appeared to be about 8 years old.
Jimmy Carter arrived in New York for the Democratic National Convention and was greeted by thousands of supporters at his hotel. With the same meticulous planning that they gave to his primary campaign, Mr. Carter’s managers had all the elements in place for his nomination as president on the first ballot Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden. The only unknown major factor was his choice of a running mate.
President Ford won four convention votes in Colorado, one more than he had been counting on in his neck-and-neck race with Ronald Reagan for the Republican presidential nomination. Mr. Reagan ended up with 26 of Colorado’s 31 convention votes, leaving him 24 delegates short of President Ford, according to the New York Times’ tabulation. John Sears, the Reagan campaign manager, said the loss of one more delegate to President Ford in the at-large voting “doesn’t mean much. We always thought it would be difficult to defeat former Governor Love.” The Colorado result could be construed as the slimmest of moral victories for President Ford.
President Ford went to Plattsburgh, in upstate New York near the Canadian border, to greet and give good wishes to the first of the 425 Americans who will participate in the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal. There was still a question of whether the games would be held because of the dispute over the admission of Taiwanese athletes to Canada. But there were reports of a possible compromise by the Canadian government, which said that the Taiwanese must not compete in the name of the Republic of China. The American athletes were going through their final workout at Plattsburgh State University College.
Americans participating in a program of the Foreign Policy Association called “Great Decisions ’76” approve the Ford Administration’s policy of détente with the Soviet Union, favor establishment of full relations with China and recognize the “right” of Palestinian Arabs to an independent state in the Middle East, the association reported last week. Détente with Moscow, the association found, was favored by 71 to 16 percent. At the same time, sentiment was equally strong on three other questions —maintaining present American commitments to the Atlantic alliance, pressing Europear allies to work for a united Europe and strengthening the United Nations and making it a major instrument of American foreign policy.
In his first public comment on Jimmy Carter’s foreign policy views, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said that the policy outlined so far by Mr. Carter was “fairly consistent” with the policy of the Ford administration. He made the statement at a news conference at the State Department and it was similar to what he has previously told some reporters. But this time there was the implication that since the policies were similar, he and Mr. Ford could do a better job on foreign affairs than Mr. Carter because they had more experience. He also said that became of the compatibility of the Carter and Ford policies there was no reason for the administration to have a moratorium on diplomatic activity during the election campaign.
Representative Otto Passman, Democrat of Louisiana, is under investigation by Agriculture Department agents for allegedly using his congressional powers to coerce foreign aid recipients to hire a favored shipping agency. Government sources said that Mr. Passman recently went to the White House on the agency’s behalf after the Agriculture Department delayed approval of one of the company’s contracts. Mr. Passman said in an interview that he had recommended the Washington-based St. John Maritime Company to the South Korean government, but denied using coercion. He is chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Foreign Operations and has virtual veto power over aid allotments.
Queen Elizabeth entertained President and Mrs. Ford, Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, Vice President Rockefeller and other official guests at a dinner tonight aboard her 5.600-ton yacht, Britannia, at the United States naval base at Newport, Rhode Island. Queen Elizabeth II, continuing her bicentennial tour that began in Philadelphia Tuesday went to the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. The Queen presented the Commonwealth of Virginia with the “devisal of arms” certifying that the heraldic arms used by the Virginia Company of London and later by the Royal Colony and Dominion of Virginia were genuine. Tomorrow, the Queen and her husband, Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, will go to Boston, the last city on the tour. They will depart for Canada Sunday night on the royal yacht Britannia.
The Federal Communications Commission, after a four-year study, has rejected a plea that it restrict television network reruns to no more than 25% of total prime time hours in any year. The FCC also refused to require on-the-air identification of reruns, saying it would add to “clutter” on television. The request for rule changes was made in 1972 by Bernard A. Balmuth, a Hollywood film editor, who was supported by more than 35 Hollywood unions.
Farmers are expected to harvest a record corn crop this year, and this could help ease grocery price increases for consumers through 1977, a Department of Agriculture economist said. The department warned that even with a record corn crop, food prices probably would continue to rise because of higher costs in moving commodities from farm to consumer. A consumer group, the Community Nutrition Institute, said that retail food prices would likely rise more than the 2% to 5% the department predicts for this year.
The Seneca Nation of Indians has concluded a historic agreement with the state of New York that permits the construction of a new road through the Seneca reservation at Salamanca in the western part of the state. For the first time in modern history, representatives of a New York tribe of Indians bargained with state officials as equals. A federal court order removed the state’s power of eminent domain as a factor in the negotiations. The state will receive an easement on — but not title to — 795 acres of the 30,000-acre reservation for the right-of-way for a section of the Southern Tier Expressway. In return, the Seneca Nation and individual members of the tribe will be paid nearly $2 million and will get back 795 acres from the adjoining Allegany State Park and be given other considerations.
Doctors treating Pat Nixon said today that she remained in serious condition but was “stable and doing as well as can be expected” after her stroke last Wednesday. “We are quite satisfied,” Dr. Jack Mosier, a neurological specialist, told reporters this morning after examining the 64‐year‐old wife of former President Richard M. Nixon. The Nixon family arrived earlier at the hospital. Mr. Nixon, looking somber, was accompanied by his daughters, Julie Nixon Eisenhower and Tricia Nixon Cox. Mrs. Nixon suffered the stroke at her San Clemente home and was taken to Memorial Hospital here Thursday.
Sandra Dupree, a white Free Will Baptist minister’s wife charged with murdering a black man, was acquitted by a jury in Henderson, North Carolina. During the week-long trial, the 34-year-old mother of four admitted shooting Harry Lee Dickens, 21, in the front yard of his home but said she shot in self-defense. Mrs. Dupree said blacks had harassed her son, Mark, 14, on his paper route, and while checking his route one day she found Dickens, an ex-paratrooper, beating him. She shot him, she said, when he turned on her. A neighbor, however, testified that Dickens was shot as he fled toward his house. The case attracted national attention when blacks demonstrated outside the courtroom, demanding her conviction.
The resident director of Castle Bank & Trust Co. of the Bahamas and seven other men were indicted on 16 counts of mail fraud in an alleged scheme to bilk U.S. investors in the silver market. A sealed federal indictment opened in Dallas said banker H. Michael Wolstencroft and others fraudulently induced persons to buy silver options and refining contracts in Texas. The indictment grew out of a continuing probe by the Justice Department and Internal Revenue Service of Castle Bank’s activities as a tax shelter.
The strike of New York-area hospital workers became the largest hospital labor dispute in U.S. history, spreading to 14 private nursing homes and 10 city-run hospitals. Spokesmen for the National Union of Hospital and Health Care Employes and the 57 institutions being struck agreed it was unlikely that a settlement in the four-day-old walkout could be reached before the Democratic National Convention opens on Monday. A union spokesman said the strike could be ended if hospitals agreed to binding arbitration of all issues. Hospital managements have rejected such proposals in the past. Wages are the key issue in the dispute. Forty thousand workers are on strike.
The plight of black teenagers, whose unemployment rates were not only the highest during the recession but have also proved the most unyielding, is viewed as a permanent part of the country’s economic system. These black youths are regarded as part of a secondary labor class, with little chance of moving out of the perpetual state of joblessness or of escaping the vicious cycle of low-paying jobs that lack security or chances for advancement.
The number of Americans with high school diplomas has more than doubled in the last 25 years, the Census Bureau reported. But the report’s authors said they were not sure if this is good news for workers. “Employees with more education are expected to be more productive and to require a shorter period of on-the-job training.” the study said. “On the other hand, some of the workers who have spent 12 years or more in formal schooling may become dissatisfied with employment in jobs which require few skills.”
British Open Men’s Golf, Royal Birkdale GC: American Johnny Miller wins his only Open championship, 6 strokes clear of Seve Ballesteros and Jack Nicklaus; Miller’s second and last major title.

Swinging at the first pitch thrown to him in the eighth inning, Craig Kusick slammed a homer to break a 2–2 tie and lift the Twins to a 4–2 victory over the Red Sox. After Kusick’s clout, Butch Wynegar drove in another run with a single in the same stanza to clinch the outcome.
Jim Palmer, who was not selected for the A. L. All-Star team, posted his 11th victory of the season as the Orioles defeated the Angels, 5–2. However, Mark Belanger, who was named to the All-Star squad, led the Orioles at bat, driving in two runs with a single and double.

Bobby Murcer homered with two aboard for the Giants’ initial runs. Trillo connected for the circuit with a man on base in the third. Madlock hit his homer to break a 6–6 tie in the eighth. Pete LaCock then singled and Trillo tripled for his third extra-base hit of the game to provide the Cubs with an insurance tally.
The Pirates, after scoring once in the first inning, exploded for five runs in the second and breezed to a 7–1 victory over the Reds to the disappointment of the Cincinnati crowd of 50,756. John Candelaria hurled the route for the Pirates, holding the Reds to six hits. In the first, the Pirates’ initial run came on a triple by Frank Taveras and infield out by Ed Kirkpatrick. The outburst in the second included two walks and singles by Manny Sanguillen and Tommy Helms for two runs. Candelaria bunted safely, but Taveras grounded into a double play. That did not stop the Pirates, who added their three other runs in the inning on a walk and a triple by Al Oliver.
George Brett had three hits or more in one game for the 20th time this season and Hal McRae drove in four runs as the Royals rapped the Tigers, 7–1. The Tigers collected four hits and just one off Al Fitzmorris, who pitched the first five innings before wilting in the high heat and humidity. McRae accounted for his RBIs with a homer and double. Brett had two singles and a triple and drove in a pair of runs with his three-bagger in the seventh.
Pitching the last 1 ⅓ innings in relief of J.R. Richard (9–9), Ken Forsch received credit for his 15th save of the season when the Astros defeated the Expos, 4–2. The Astros, picking up a run at a time, were ahead, 3–0, before the Expos rallied for their pair in the eighth. A double by Pepe Mangual, walk to Jerry White and two infield outs accounted for the initial tally. After Richard hit Larry Parrish with a pitched ball, Forsch took over. Pete Mackanin greeted Forsch with a run-scoring single, but the Astros’ ace reliever clamped down the rest of the way.
Bill Travers (10–6) pitched eight innings in 96-degree heat before surrendering the mound to Danny Frisella, who completed pitching the Brewers to a 3–1 victory over the Rangers. Of course the heat was just as tough on Gaylord Perry, who was the Rangers’ loser in a bid for his 10th victory. Tom Grieve homered for the Rangers’ lone tally, while Don Money batted in two runs for the Brewers with a homer in the first inning and a grounder in the third.
