Poverty areas
struck byri'sing
unemployment-
WASHINGTON () - The Labor Department reported yes-
terday that unemployment in the poorest neighborhoods of
the nation's 100 largest cities has climbed by more than 30
per cent in the past year.
The report, by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, said the
overall jobless rate climbed from 5.7 to 8.3 per cent of the to-
tal work force in the poverty neighborhoods over the year,
compared with a rise from 3.3 to 4.8 per cent for other big
city neighborhoods.
The 8.3 per cent jobless rate in the poor neighborhoods
compares with the nation's overall unemployment rate of 5.5
per cent at last report in September, the highest in nearly
seven years. The national jobless rate was 3.8 per cent a year
ago. The report said the climb
in unemployment in the poor "
neighborhoods was about in Guerrillas
line with the national rise.

rine Engineers Beneficial Association
was less candid. Its group listed a $2,-
000 donation only as going to: "Milton
Nottingham, treasurer."
The money showed up in a search
of the reports to Congress that national
political-groups, such as those for labor
unions and industry lobbies, must file,
itemizing all contributions.
A cable TV group reported a $1,000
contribution to an organization called
the "Committee for Effective Govern-
ment."
It was traced as a fund-raising body
for Rep. Torbert H. Macdonald, (D-
Mass). MacDonald is chairman of the
House, communications subcommittee
which has held hearings on cable TV.
These reports listed such names as

"D.C. Friends of karth," "D.C. Broy-
hill Boosters Committee, "D.C. O'Neill
Committee," and "Sparky's friends in
the District of Columbia."
Other contributions to various D.C.
committees came from such industry
groups as the highway lobby, savings
associations, real estate, automobile
dealers, restaurants, motels and coal
mining. Labor unions' political groups
were high on the list, also.
Incumbent congressmen aren't th e
only politicians with D.C. committees.
Two others cropped up bearing the
names of two non-incumbents-House
candidates Bruce Shine in Tennessee
and Virgil Musser in Ohio.
Still another D.C. committee bore the
name of a candidate for governor in the
Virgin Islands.

CHICAGO VP)--Vice President
Spiro T. Agnew suggested yes-
terday that a panel of govern-
ment officials "examine" news
commentators so that any pre-
judices the newsmen may have
could be brought before the
public.
"The people who are watching
that tube have a right to know
what your opinions are if you
happen to be a man who is tell-
ing the news every night," Ag-
new told two television inter-
viewers in Chicago.
The vice president said news-
men can select parts of the
news they wish to emphasize
and by their language "can
convey a point of view that is
not 'an editorial yet is colored
by their own viewpoint."
"It would be very interesting,"
Agnew said, "to have a show-

,tews me n
a panel type show where sen-
ators from either party, repre-
sentatives, I suppose maybe a
couple of governors-could sit
down with someone who has
a national reputation as a com-
mentator .. . and just examine
him in depth on where he stands
personally on the issues he talks
about every day."
Agnew particularly mentioned
Frank Reynolds and Howard K
Smith, anchormen on ABC eve-
ning news, and Eric Sevareid of
CBS and did not directly in-
clude print newsmen. But a
spokesman said later "you can
safely assume" Agnew meant
the print media too.
Agnew brought up the subject
during the taping of an inter-
view with Chicago newspaper-
man Irv Kupcinet and Charles
Roberts of Newsweek Magazine.

The situation was worst among
black teenagers, whose jobless
rate rose to nearly 35 per cent,
the report said.
"The number of unemployed
persons in poverty neighborhoods
averaged 510,000 in the t h i r d
quarter of 1970, up about 150,000
from the third quarter of 1969,"
it said.
"Jobless rates for both -whites
and blacks from poverty neigh-
borhoods were up sharply o v e r
the year. T h e jobless rate for
whites moved from 4.4 to 6.6 per
cent and that for blacks from 7.5
to 10.8 per cent," it said.
T h e national unemployment
rate among white workers is 5.1
per cent and the rate for blacks
is 9 per cent.
"Most of the increased jobless-
ness in poverty neighborhoods ov-
er the year t a o k place among
adult men, both white and black.
The jobless rate for black men
rose from 3.9 to 7.9 per cent while
the rate for white men rose from
2.8 to 5.1 per cent," the report
said.
The national jobless rate for all
men is 4 per cent.
The jobless rate for white teen-
agers in poverty neighborhoods
moved up from 17.2 to 17.7 per
cent and for black teenagers from
29.3 to 34.9 per cent, compared
with 16.8 per cent nationally for
all teenagers, the report said.
Unemployment climbed slightly
faster for whites in the p o or
neighborhoods, but blacks had
a continuing higher jobless rate.

battlearmy in
north Jordan
By The Associated Press
New fighting broke out yester-
day in'northern Jordan between
government troops and Palestinian
guerrillas. In Cairo, moderate
Mahmoud Fawzi was -named prime
minister and hard-liner Mohsen
Abul Nur secretary-general of
Egypt's only political party.
An Arab peace commission in
the Jordanian capital of Amman
issued an urgent call for a cease-
fire in new fighting at Ramtha,
near the Syrian border. Guerrilla
leader Yasir Arafat said govern-
ment forces also attacked at Al
Turrah village, close to the border.
In Cairo, the Central Commit-
tee of the ruling Arab Socialist
Union approved unanimously Sa-
dat's selection of Fawzi as the
new prime minister. Fawzi was one
of the late President Gamal Abdel
Nasser's chief foreign affairs ad-
visers for 18 years.
Sadat and the Central Commit
tee balanced appointment of the
moderate, 70-year-old Fawzi by
naming the hard-lining Abul Nur
to the powerful post of secretary-
general of the Socialist Union,
Egypt's only political party.
AbulNur, 49, whose influence
in the government could exceed
Fawzi's, is known to have strong
sympathies for -the Soviet Union.
