rMuJSEE N S APPQE ( AAL fAD Statement If you chanced to pass by artist Charles Ginnever's "Daedalus" sculpture shortly after it was installed on the Art Museum lawn last week, you may have seen another type of artistic statement - a price tag plaed by Lionel Biron on the giant metal edifice. "The price tag is a poetic metaphor," said Biron, "and should not be taken at face value alone." In a news release handed out on the spot Biron informed the public that the $500,000 price tag - a figure arrived at partially by adding labor and material costs - was not a criticism of the unusual sculpture. "What shocks most people in my assertion is not the rela- tive aesthetic worth of the two works of art," Biron said, referring to "Daedalus" and the price tag, "but the genuine challenge it presents to economic assumptions upon which our society rests. In other words, if I were given 'a half million dollars for the price tag and the sculptor only received 10 per cent of this amount, this would seriously upset generally held beliefs as to what constitutes the apparently logical distribution of moneyin our society."

Carter WASHINGTON (AP) - The Carter administration opened a new round of Middle East diplomacy yesterday with Israeli Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan and said it would be willing to talk with the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) if the group accepts United Na- tions resolutions recognizing Israel. Dayan carried to President Carter and Secretary of State Cyrus Vance proposals for a settlement that would return some territories to the Arab countries but maintain Israel military control over the west bank of the Jor- dan River. Administration officials, while not optimistic about a breakthrough in negotiations, emphasized a determina- tion to get the Palestinians admitted to the peace table. THE ADMINISTRATION said the ,Dayan United States "would be wi ing to talk them." with the PLO if they accept 242 and Thed 338," the 1967 and 1973 Security Council sponseI resolutions implying acceptance of Is- briefing rael's existence and promoting peace- by refer ful settlement of the Arab-Israeli con- Dayar flict. surroun But a State Department spokesman, After b( in making the statement, said the Brussels United States "is not in the business of went to] imposing our views" and that all par- to Israe ties to the dispute must agree on who Minister can participate at the Geneva confer- "I tho ence the administration hopes to have to himc reconvened by the end of the year. way," D THROUGHOUT the summer the ad- went ba ministration invited the PLO to accept ministe the U.N. resolutions.

PALESTINIAN sympathizers releas- ed three documents obtained from the Central Intelligence Agency that they said showed Dayan deliberately or- dered the strafing by air and sea at- tack. Dayan, responding to a questiop, said, "We didn't know at the time that it was an American ship. It was close to the shore. We just were mistaken. Ky. club s fire exists were routinely locked Vance h I. CINCINNATI (AP) - A waitress working in the Beverly Hills Supper Club the night a fire killed 164 people told a congressional hearing yesterday that fire doors at the supper club rour tinely were kept locked. Janetta John- son, who was injured trying to get out of the overcrowded Cabaret Room, also said aisles leading to the room's single exit were blocked by tables and chairs. "It was like trying to get an egg into a Coke bottle," she said of the jam up at the door. "I just knew that smoke was going to kill me. People were screaming and pushing trying to get through that sin- gle exit door." JOHNSON SAID she had seen the fire doors unlocked "perhaps eight times" in the;two years she worked there. She testified she saw an employe unlock back fire doors the night of the May 28 fire. She was one of a series of witnesses testifying about the fire before the sub- committee on Consumer Protection and Finance of the House Committee on In- terstate and Foreign Commerce. KENTUCKY GOV. Julian Carroll predicted yesterday morning that the owners of the club and former state Fire Marshal John Calvert might be in- dicted for "clearly illegal and malici- ous" activities and for their total dis- regard for the safety of Beverly Hills patrons. He charged that Richard Schilling and his sons, owners of the club, had en- gaged in a "conspiracy" with archi- tects and electrical workers to violate state building codes. Carroll, the first to testify yesterday, told the committee he was going to place the fire marshal's office "in such order that there are no more tragedies it is within the power of the agency to prevent."
