Pledge Efforts Against Racism VATICAN CITir (AP) The directing council of the Roman Catholic World Laymen's Or ganization pledged today to make special efforts to fight racism. Ending an eight-day plenary session, the council said Catho lic organizations working with U.N. agencies would give spe cial support to the International Human Rights Year now being observed. The council cited a call to fight racism by the third World Congress of the Lay Apostolate in Rome last October.

Fnmesti Be fussy-we are But it does not make travel arrangements it merely gives the returning volunteer the cash to buy a tourist-class airline ticket home. The volunteer can travel as he pleases. A Peace Corps official said the agency had made no study of how its volunteers return or where they spend the money. The Public Health Service and National Institutes of Health together provide several hundred fellowships or other grants each year for training of Americans abroad and for training of foreign students and scientists in the United States. These agencies reimburse foreigners eight cents an air mile for travel, and do not require them to ride with U.S.

carriers although, a spokesman claimed, "most of them seem to." Americans traveling abroad with such financing also get eight cents a mile and buy their own tickets. The National Science Foundation paid out $100,000 in 1967 for foundation fellows to travel abroad. It, too, furnished eight cents an air mile and the traveler purchased his own ticket. Fellows are told to take American carriers where possible. They must reiwrt on a form their method of travel and give a reason If they did not use an American carrier.

The Department of Defense does not restrict its contractors' choice of carriers for air passenger travel abroad. U.S. law requires government contractors to use U.S. carriers for ocean shipping and for air shipment of household goods and personal effects, but there is no mention of air passenger travel. The Defense Department awarded $2.8 billion for prime contract work abroad during fiscal 1967.

A spokesman said a breakdown of costs showing how much was devoted to contractor travel Is not available. A spokesman for the State Department's cultural exchange programs said he would "be surprised if a vast majority" of travelers under the programs don't travel on U.S. carriers. A breakdown of travel costs under the $45 million exchange program is not available, he aid. "No one ever asked for one." Rail Rate Hike Made Permanent WASHINGTON (AP) The Interstate Commerce Commis sion made permanent today a $300 million annual Increase in railway freight rates.

The commission approved the hikes on a temporary basis last July 31 after the railroads asked for them as emergency meis ures designed primarily to meet higher labor costs. In Its 148 page decision, the ICC said today the interest of the public "and that of the national defense, in a sound, adequate and efficient transportation system will be adversely affected" unless the higher rates are continued. The three per cent Increase Is the first general freight rate hike granted the railroads since I960, the ICC said. The railroads had sought In creases estimated at $327.6 mil lion annually. There have been reports In the industry that the railroad will soon seek another general rate rise possibly as much as five per cent.

WASHINGTON (AP) The government, which wants to tax American tourists to stem the dollar drain, is financing millions of dollars wortli of travel abroad without safeguards against foreign carriers getting the money. Precisely how much money Is involved is a mystery, even to the government. Officials of the Treasury Department and the Bureau of the Budget conceded they don't know how much the government spends on foreign travel, directly and indirectly. Thus, they have no way of knowing how many dollars may be draining into the pockets of foreign airlines instead of staying home with American carriers. Government employes are required to use U.S.

airlines wherever possible for foreign travel and congressional travelers try to do the same so transportation dollars won't flow abroad. But requirements and enforcement are spotty in some areas of government-financed travel and nonexistent in others, such as returning Peace Corps-men, government contractors and fellowships winners. The Peace Corps alone spends $3 million a year to get its volunteers back to the United Stales at the end of duty tours. Warn Public Of Missing Heir Scheme MADISON (AP)-Atty. Gen.

Bronson La Follette today warned Wisconsin residents against falling prey to the "missing heir scheme," a well-devised, legal way of bilking unsuspecting persons. In a letter to local law enforcement officers, La Follette warned of the racket, which works like this: A promoter searches the records of probate courts In his area until he finds a fairly large estate lying idle with no known heirs. Letters are then sent to every persons in the United States with the same last name, obtained from telephone books, urging them to investigate the possibility of inheriting the estate. Copies of all documents can be mailed, the letter Informs tlie reader, for only $6 or $8, from which they can determine if the money Is rightfully theirs. The documents are sent as promised, but at a huge profit to the promoter.

"This scheme breaks no laws," La Follette said. He added, however, that there Is no evidence the scheme has ever located a single missing heir although 17 such firms are known to be operating in the country. SBA Program Coming To Wausau MADISON The Small Business Administration's "Circuit rider" assistance program, which began last October on a bi-monthly basis, will again be held in Wausau on Feb. 21.

Nixon has brought the strike of sanitation workers in New York City into his presidential campaign, declaring that breaking the law "cannot and must not be rewarded." Twice his statements about the strike touched off thunderous applause as he campaigned in New Hampshire for its March 12 presidential primary, the earliest in the nation. Nixon Is in Boston today for a $500 per ticket fund-raising event, a meeting with Massachusetts Gov.

John A. Volpe and an address to the 101st annual Middlesex Club Lincoln Day dinner. He told a tightly packed audience of 1,480 at a Republican rally in Derry, N.H., Wednesday, "there is no protest that justifies the use of lawlessness or violence to accomplish its end." Earlier at the University of New Hampshire in Durham Nixon said of the New York strike, "breaking of the laws of the state of New York, or any other state cannot and must not be rewarded by giving those who break the law what they are asking for." Mayor John V. Lindsay was correct, he said, in asking Gov. Nelson A.

Rockefeller to send the National Guard into the city. Rockefeller turned down Lindsay's request for guard aid and ended the nine-day strike with a plan for a temporary state take-over of the city sanitation department with wage payments higher than the mayor would accept. But the legislature balked at approving the plan and tossed the ball back to the mayor for further negotiations. In supiiorting the mayor, Nixon impliedly threw the barbs at Rockefeller. Thb New York governor says he is not a candidate for the presidency, but some Republicans remain skeptical.

Wesley Powell. lie has not endorsed the candidacies of cither Nixon or the for mer vice president's chief opponent in the New Hampshire pri Party KOSTO IN A LThe Negro Priests At Chicago Accuse Church CHICAGO (AP) Seven Ne gro priests of the Chicago Roman Catholic archdiocese have accused the church nationally of following rather than leading the black people's demands to fulfill legitimate aspirations. The charge was part of a statement released Wednesday which the priests presented at a closed meeting Monday of some 300 priests who discussed plans to form a national federation of priest councils. The Negro priests called it a great mistake" for the church to disdain the "militant elements in the black communities." The militants for the most part are the intellectual, educated, middle class black leaders, they said.

The white power structure in the church and in secular society, they said, "has found it easier to deal only with docile, agreeable, middle-aged black leaders" and "has failed to realize that the power center has moved away from these men" in Negro life. If the church continues to treat the agsiiessive activists with disdain, the militants will remain alienated from its influ ence, they warned. In their statement, the seven priests also said the Chicago archdiocese administration's dealings with Negroes in the past had been marked by "enlightened paternalism." Signers of the statement were the Reverends Kenneth Brig- ham, Louis Burrell, Victor But ler, George Clements, Rollins Lambert, Lawrence Thornton and Richard Wlieatley. The paper was released Wed nesday by the Society of the Divine Word at Techny. Three of the signers are members of that religious community.
