violence
SALISBURY, Rhodesia -
Black guerrillas burned and
looted offices of a second Chris-
tian mission, the government
said yesterday, while security
forces searched rain - soaked
bush for raiders who killed sev-
en white missionaries Sunday.
No casualties were reported
in the raid on Nyashanu fnis-
sion 125 miles southeast of Sal-
isbury near the Mozambique
border. The government did not
say which church operated the
mission or when the attack took
place. It said the attackers took
about $5,400 and burned a mis-
sion workshop and office.
Three Jesuits and four Do-
minican nuns were lined up and
shot Sunday night in an attack
on St. Paul's Roman Catholic
Mission in the Musami tribal
area 26 miles northeast of Sal-
isbury and about 150 miles from
the Nyashanu mission.
Outlawed black guerrilla units
said agents of the white govern-
ment of Prime Minister Ian
Smith were behind the attack,
the largest group killing of
whites in four years of guer-
rilla war aimed at black rule.
The country has 270,000
whites and more than 5 million
blacks.-
There was no official resnonse
to the charge, but it was be-
lieved the government honed to
capturethe attackers alive to
refute the claims.
DIGEST
refrained from commenting on
the deaths.
The Vatican daily newspaper
L'Osservatore Romano said
yesterday the killings were a
crime that "no _civilized crea-
ture could approve."
The shootmgb were deplored
by Pope Paul on Monday and
Archbishop Patrick Chakaipa,
first black leader of the Church
in Rhodesia, said they "made a
mockery" of black nationalist
ideals.
Dissident appeal
MOSCOW - More than 200
Soviet dissidents have appeal-
ed for the release, because of
ill health, of Alexander Ginz-
burg, who disburses the funds
supplied by novelist Alexander
Solzhenitsyn to aid political
prisoners and their families.
In Washington, the U. S.
State Department said it was
"watching with concern" the
treatment of the 40-year-old hu-
man rights activist and has
made the Soviet government
aware of its views.'r
It was the third time since
President Carter took office
Tan. 20 that the United States
had warned a Soviet .Bloc gov-
ernment about. human rights.
Ginzburg's Soviet supporters
made their plea in a statement
addressed to the 35 govern-
ments that signed the 1975 Hel-
sinki Accords.
It said he was- released from
a hospital shortly before his ar-
rest last Thursday, although he,
was "still suffering from pneu-
monia with a tubercular infec-
tion . . . and should be treated
at a tuberculosis dispensary."
Jail is "certain death for a
man in his condition," Valen-
tin Turchin, head of the Soviet
branch of Amnesty Internation-
al, told Western correspondents.
Ginzburg is renorted being
held in prison in Kahiga, about
100 miles southwest of Moscow.
The charges against hint have
-ot been announced, but an of-
ficial pnblication accused him
last week of illegal currency
dealings.

legislation Monday. President
Ford vetoed strip mining legis-
lation twice in both 1975 and
1976.
Ford said the bills would add
to unemployment and drastic-
ally raise the price of energy.
But Andrus told a Senate sub-
committee that the legislation
would have little effect on
either coal production or unem-
ployment.
Andrus said he favors extend-
ing the proposed coal strip min-
ing standards to cover other
minerals.
But, while Andrus and sev-
eral members of a, Senate In-
terior subcommittee were in
general agreement on extend-
ing the standards, the emphasis
at the subcommittee hearing
was on swift passage of the ba-
sic coal strip mining control
legislation.

for Feb. 3-6, tabulated Monday,
showed no change.
Sindlinger said his firm has
conducted daily unemployment
surveys by telephonehin all 48
contiguous states at the rate of
110 calls per week for the past
20 years.
President Carter's Cabinet
was told Monday that the wea-
ther caused 1.8 million layoffs.
The Labor Department bases
its monthly reports on a sam-
ple week adjusted seasonally,
according to historical data
from the past five years.
Sindlinger does not use sea-
sonally adjusted figures and
claims the adjusted figures in
the government's reports can be
artificially low.

LANSING - The Michigan
League for Human Services
called yesterday for prompt
state action to prevent utility
cutoffs to the poor.
"State government has within
its power the means to avert
these cut-offs for welfare recipi-
ents and other low-income citi-
zens," said league President Al-
bert Dunmore.
As part of its recommended
action, the league suggested
that the state Department of
Social Services make the best
use of available federal dollars.
It also urged the state Public
Service Commission to review
its rules (regarding service cut-
offs.
The league, a statewide non-
partisan group funded through
the United Way, asked state
lawmakers to place "high pri-
ority" on increasing grants to
the poor for the fiscal years
through a .supplemental appro-
priation to the social services
department.

more Americans lost their jobs
in January than were reported
by the U. S. Labor Department,,
a private research firm says.
The Sindlinger & Co. also
said true unemployment for
last Wednesdaytwas 11.6 per
cent, or more than 11 million
persons out of work, and that
unemployment actually rose 1
per cent from December, while
the Labor Department reported
January unemployment had
dropped one-half of 1 per cent.
The government failed to ac-
count for those who lost jobs
due to the severe cold weather
because it used data taken be-
fore the harsh weather began,
Sindlinger & Co. said in a
newsletter.
Government calculating meth-
ods and the use of incomplete
data also contributed to the in-
accurate unemployment pic-
ture, Sindlinger said.
There was no immediate re-
'action from the Labor -Depart-
ment.-
Sindlinger'-s surveys for Jan.1
12 to Feb. 2 showed 3.3 millionI
But the edge of the shortage
was being softened this week as
'small additional supplies of na-
tural gas began flowing into in-
terstate pipelines under provi-
sions of the new emergency act
that President Carter signed
last Wednesday.
The Federal Power Commis-
sion (FPC) said Monday that
some 380 million cubic feet of
gas per day already was flow-
ing under new emergency ar-
rangements and another 175
million, cubic feet a day was
authorized and awaiting com-
pletion of connecting pipes.
The extra gas, transferred
from western areas with better
supplies or purchased tempor-
arily at prices above federally
regulated ceilings, represents
only about one per cent of the
gas required on a cold winter
day.
But it helps, and so does some
933 million cubic feet already
flowing daily under earlier FPC
emergency rules.

But have you ever considered what doing your
job just a little better might mean?
Money. Cold hard coin of the realm.
If each of us cared just a smidge more about
what we do for a living, we could actually turn that
inflationary spiral around..Better products, better
service and better management would mean savings
for all of us. Savings of much of the cash and frayed
nerves its costing-us now for repairs and inefficiency
Point two..By taking more pride in our work
we'll more than likely see America regaining its
strength inthe competitive world trade arena. When
the balance of payments swings our way again we'll
all be better off economically.
So you see-the only person who canreally
do what you do any better is you.
