Citypo lce
still search
for arsoni~st,
City police are still seeking an Ann
Arbor man who has been charged with
murder and arson in a summer fire
which killed one city resident and
severely burned another.
A criminal warrant has been issued
for Jerry Lee Edwards, 24, in connec-
tion with the tragic Aug. 18 fire at 607 E.
Ann St.
EDWARDS allegedly set the fire af-
ter an argument between Edwards and
first floor residents over a small
amount of stolen marijuana, police
said.
Ann Arbor Fire Marshall Wesley
Prater said his department has
definitely ruled out natural causes for
the blaze, which started on the front
porch of the house.
M.L. Hargrow, who lived in the
second floor of the building, was killed
in the fire. His son, Jessie Hargrow, is
presently listed in critical condition at
the University Burn Center.
The Ann Arbor Fire Department said
it has enough positive information to
take to the county court for Edwards'
prosecution.

In Brief
Compiled from Associated Press and
United Press international reports
Argentina seeks loan money
TORONTO- Argentina, following the lead of financially strapped Mexico,
has asked the International Monetary Fund for emergency help in paying its
debts, the IMF disclosed yesterday.
Argentina is believed to owe foreign lenders $36 billion, one of the largest
external debts of any developing nation. Mexico has the largest, at $80
billion.
Fund Managing Director Jacques de Larosiere told reporters at the con-
clusion of the IMF's annual meeting that Argentine officials approached him
during the meeting "and explained to me the thrust of their economic objec-
tives and economic strategy ... aimed at the regularization of their external
payments and external debts."
,He said he agreed to dispatch an IMF team to Buenos Aires when asked by
the Argentines to negotiate a possible loan.
The 146-nation IMF provides short-term loans to troubled countries unable
to obtain private financing. But the fund ties its loans to strict changes in
economic policies designed to put the country's finances back on track.
Mexico is negotiating a $4 billion to $5 billion emergency IMF loan to tide it
over until it can make longer-term arrangements to pay its lenders.
State to consider change
in Chrysler loan repayment
LANSING- Legislators were seriously considering yesterday a plan to
ease the state's fiscal crisis by arranging refinancing of Michigan's two-
year-old $150 million loan to the Chrysler Corp.
Under the plan, the loan made to Chrysler in April 1980-in the depth of the
giant automaker's money °problems-could be transferred to another
creditor, with the original $150 million repaid to the state's common cash
fund.
An independent state agency, possibly the Michigan State Housing
Development Authority or State Accident Fund, might then assume the role
of Chrysler's creditor.
Banks and other private investors might also be considered in the transac-
tion. Chrysler might also be asked to pay back the state, using its remaining
credit with the federal government.
Prison crowding relieved
LANSING- A second sentence-slashing order and the usual August lull in
court action have helped shrink Michigan's prison population enough to end
the four-month-old crowding emergency, officials said yesterday.
The Corrections Commission formally asked Gov. William Milliken to
rescind the emergency declaration he issued May 19, citing figures showing
the prison population was below the target level-95 percent of capacity.
A spokesman said the governor is expected to act in a day or so, as soon as
legal staff work on the matter is complete.
Corrections Director Perry Johnson does not expect any more emergency
declarations to be needed this year. More declarations and sentence reduc-
tions are "inevitable" in 1983, however, and probably will occur early in the
year, he said.
When Milliken formally rescinds the state of emergency, the current prac-
tice of reducing the sentences of all newly admitted inmates will be ceased.
Sentence reductions already ordered will not be affected, however.
British ship pipeline supplies
to Soviets, defying Reagan
LONDON - Britain yesterday joined France and Italy in defying the U.S.
embargo on supplies for the Siberian natural gas pipeline, sending six tur-
bines off to Leningrad aboard a Soviet freighter.
Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger returned to Washington after a
three-day visit, including talks with Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in
which neither side yielded, British officials reported.
The Soviet news agency Tass praised Britain's shipment of the turbines
"despite Washington's campaign of blackmail and intimidation designed to
frustrate the participation of West European countries in this project."
The 4,000-ton Soviet freighter Stakhanovets Yermolenko left Glasgow,
Scotland, on a seven-day voyage to Leningrad. The turbines, packed into 500
crates, took 10 days to load.
UAW proposes contract
DETROIT - The United Auto Workers proposed yesterday a two-part
contract with Chrysler Corp. - a one-year section featuring wage increases
and restored benefits and a longer commitment on non-paycheck issues.
UAW President Douglar Fraser told reporters the union asked for the
unusual 12-month clause on economic issues because of the Chrysler's un-
certain financial future.
Chrysler workers last year gave up cost-of-living allowances and agreed to
a wage freeze to help the company avoid bandruptcy. Fraser said the
proposed one-year pact would restore COLA and include a pay jike.
The second part of the contract would run for no more than three years and
could possibly go for three years in order to run concurrently with contracts
at General Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co.
Fraser said there is "an awful lot of work to do" before the 12:01 a.m.
Wednesday expiration of the current contract. The biggest hangup is still
Chrysler's insistence on workers paying part of their own medical bills.
