Rabin now heads a caretaker cabinet which must by law stay in office until the May 17 gen- eral elections. But he may be able to take a leave of absence and thus effectively retire from his post. Castro-Arafat Kremlin talks MOSCOW -- Cuban President Fidel Castro flew home yester- day after a behind-the-scenes meeting with Palestinian lead- er Yasser Arafat and detailed Kremlin talks which apparently concentrated on Soviet bloc guarantees the workers an automatic $1.50 bonus with a new settlement and no less than a 3 per cent pay hike in each of the three years of a new contract, plus cost of living ad- justments.

Castro, who also had a pri- vate meeting yesterday with ex- iled Chilean Communist Luis Corvalan, was seen off by Brezh- nev, President Nikolai Podgor- ny, Premier Alexei Kosygin and Foreign Minister Andrei Gromy- ko. Castro and Corvalan, who was released from a Chilean prison last December in exchange for Soviet dissident Vladimir Bukov- sky, would probably have dis- cussed what Cuba can do to help Chilean Communists oppose the miliitary junta of President Au- gusto Pinochet, observers said. Rabin RABIN'S resignation announce- ment, made while jubilant Is- raelis were celebrating Maccabi Tel Aviv's win in the European Cup basketball finals in Bel- grade Thursday night, caught politicians by surprise. The newly-formed Democratic Movement for Change (DMC) headed by Professor Yigal Ya- din said it received the news with shock and consternation. But one of the leaders of the Likud right - wing opposition, Simma Erlich, said it was "a final and compelling proof of corruption through the country as a result of extended Labor leadership.", ALTHOUGH Rabin himself was not a prime target, his res- ignation came amid increasing' public anger at evidence of brib- ery and corruption in high places. The issue of the bank account first came to light about three weeks ago and Rabin's wife said it then contained 2,000 dollars. Israelis are banned from hold- ing foreign currency abroad. Several Israeli newspapers re- ported today that there was 18,000 dollars in the account on the date in 1974 when it should have been closed according to Israeli law. UP TO A DOZEN members of the top Israeli establishment have been convicted on corrup- tion charges, including Asher Yadlzn, governor - designate of the Bank of Israel, who receiv- ed a five-year jail term' in Feb- ruary for bribery and tax eva- sion. Housing Minister Avraham Of- er, a leading supporter of Mr. Rabin, committed suicide three months ago after being accused. The Bob Woodward-Carl Bern- stein story in the Washington National Steel talks plod along WASHINGTON - Negotiators for the United Steelworkers un- ion and the nation's 10 biggest steel manufacturers reported slow, steady progress yester- day toward a new contract set- tlement for nearly 340,000 work- ers. "We're making progress - still fighting," said a union negotiator who sat at the bar- gaining table with President I. W. Abel 'and the industry's top man, J. Bruce Johnston of United States Steel Corp. BUT THEY remained at odds over the, exact shape and size of the job security and income guarantees at the core of the union's demands. Under a no-strike agreement that -has existed between the union and the basic steel com- panies since 1974, all major un- resolved economic issues must be submitted to binding arbi- tration before April 20. Neither side wanted to resort to arbi- tration. The key stumbling block was Abel's dream of achieving "lifetime job, security" for his members before he retires in June. He was building on ex- isting security provisions in-. eluding supplemental unem- ployment benefits, extended vacations, a 32-hour pay guar- antee for each work week and short-term income maintenance for disabled workers. The no-strike agreement also cost of uranium. IN ANNOUNCING an end Thursday to U. S. gov- ernment support for plutonium processing, Carter said he will' seek agreements with foreign governments to restrict access to plutonium, which can used to make nuclear weapon Several major U. S. allies- Japan, West Germany, Britain and France - already are com- mitted to using plutonium in nu- clear power plants, and to re- processing spent nuclear fuel to recover more plutonium. Carter said, "I hope they will join with us, and I believe they 'will, to limit the spread of plu- tonium reprocessing technolo- gy. BUT WEST Germany already has agreed to sell a reprocess- ing plant to Brazil and France is selling one to Pakistan. It is just this type of deal, which spreads plutonium technology, that Carter wants to stop. Carter enunciated seven poli- cies that the United States will follow, including a slowdown of development of the nuclear breeder reactor, which can cre- ate plutonium from'an other- wise useless form of uranium. The President also proposed legislation to assure foreign countries of a supply of nu- clear fuel from the United States. This would allow other countries to make use of nu- clear energy without possessing the material or technology to manufacture bomb-grade fuel. Rep. Barry Goldwater, (R- Ariz.), said, "he's whistling Dixie through a peanut shell if he thinks other nations will follow suit." But.. Sen. John Glenn, (D- Ohio), said he is in basic ac- cord with Carter's decision, call- ing it "the first step on the energy path toward 'benefit- without-bombs."' Veterans clear records OVERLAND, Mo. -Vietnam- era veterans who received less than honorable discharges - including deserters - ar e swamping the government's Joint Liaison Office here with more than 3,000 telephone calls a day seeking to have dis- charges upgraded to honorable status. "At first we thought we would be able to handle about 500 a day," said Brig. Gen. Robert S. Young, commander of the Military Personnel Re- cords Center here. "But it ap- pears now that, each telephone interview is taking longer than we expected and our limit is probably between 3,000 and 4,004. } AFTER THE initial call, ap- plicants are advised by mail that they may submit addition- al data within 30 days for con- sideration. The .program, initiated by President Carter to fulfill cam- paign promises, applies to per- sons who served in the armed forces from Aug. 4, 1964, to March 28, 1973. Bad conduct discharges and dishonorable discharges, which reflect court- martial convictions, are not considered for review, but general, undesirable and clem- ency discharges may - be up- graded, depending on the cir- cumstances. The office's toll-free number in the continental United States, other than Missouri, is 80 32- 404. Persons in Missouri, Alas- ka, Hawaii and Puerto Rico can call collect to 314 428-3500.

Royal reproduction LONDON - Princess Anne is expecting a baby in Novem- ber, Buckingham Palace an- nounced yesterday. It will be the first grandchild for the Princess's mother Queen Elizabeth, who this year is celebrating her Silver Jubi- lee, marking 25 years on the throne. THE PRINCESS, who will be 27 on August 15, is fourth in line to the throne. She was married on November 14, 1973, at Westminster Abbey. A Buckingham Palace spokes- man said "naturally the Prin- cess and (her husband) Cap- tain Mark Phillips are delight- ed, as are other members of the royal family." State Riegle wheels anid deals?{ DETROIT - An insurance man with Teamster connections was identified yesterday as a go-between for political contribu- tions to Sen. Donald Riegle (D- Mich.), from Polish-American businessmen who want Marvin Stempien nominated for "U.S. attorney. The Detroit News reported that the funds were funneled through Richard Mazur, 44, of Bloomfield Hills, a business leader in Detroit's, Polish community who also is the operator of a Teamsters Union severance fund under federal investigation. A top aide to Riegle ack- nowledged that Stempien, -a Liv- onia attorney who once served as Democratic floor leader in the Michigan House, was one of a dozen or more applicants for the post. But the aide, Doug- las Dibbert, denied that Mazur wields any "major" influence with Riegle. He described the relationship between the two mer' as "casual." End of botulismj PONTIAC - The outbreak of botulism that struck 45 patrons of a Mexican restaurant appar- ently has ended. No new cases were reported yesterday. Oakland County Health Direc- tor Dr. Robert Locey said the last confirmed case was admit- ted to St. Joseph Mercy Hos- pital Wednesday. Despite its se- verity, the botulism caused no deaths. The botulism, the most potent toxin known to man, was traced to improperly home - canned green peppers at Trini and. Carmen's Mexican Restaurant.. The tainted peppers, used in almost every item served at the establishment, were served' between March 28 and March 31. The brightest steady artificial light sources are "laser" beams.
