380, American Legion. Soviet gain in livestock output noted WASHINGTON (AP) An Agriculture Department expert said today that the Soviet Union is making significant progress in turning out more meat, milk and poultry for consumers despite reduced grain harvests last year. The push by Moscow to put more of those products on Russian food tables has been watched closely by department officials for some time as a sign that the Soviet Union probably will continue as a buyer of U.S. corn and other livestock feeds. "The major bright spot in the Soviet farm scene last year was the good performance of the livestock sector, which continued to move ahead strongFletcher Pope specialist in the department's Economic Research Service, said.
Over-all Soviet farm production slipped 3 to 4 per cent below 1973's record as the result of grain harvests being smaller than expected, but Pope said those harvests still were the second largest in history. Pope's report, published in a weekly issue of "Foreign A Agriculture," did not speculate on what the surge in Soviet livestock production may hold for U.S. grain exports. USDA officials have indicated for several years that Russia's goals for upgrading consumer diets could lead to sustained sales of U.S. feed.

Chief Justice Burger calls for pay boost CHICAGO (AP) Chief Justice Warren E. Burger has assailed Congress for approving legislation that calls for speedier federal trials without providing enough money to meet the new law's requirements. "If we are not given the tools to meet the demands of the Speedy Trial Act.
we may well be confronted with a crisis, particularly in the larger districts," Burger said Sunday fifth State of the Judiciary message at the midyear convention of the American Bar Association. Burger estimated that $10 million, or twice the amount of the U.S. Supreme Court's annual budget, may be needed for additional equipment and personnel to meet the requirements of the act. The law, which was approved in December a and takes effect in July, provides that trials of all federal criminal defendants must begin within 100 days of the indictment. Under the current law, criminal cases must be disposed within 180 days after the indictment.
The act stipulates that the transition will be made i in stages over the next four years. Although Burger said. he agreed with the law's intentions, he charged that Congress failed to adequately investigate the proposal's impact on the federal judicial system. The chief justice said that the act only posed another burden on the federal court system, already strapped with an increased workload because of a rising crime rate and lack of personnel. During the past decade, federal, civil and criminal cases have increased 45 per cent in the courts, he said.
Federal appeals also have risen substantially from one-third of all persons convicted in 1964 to three-fourths in 1974. Burger called upon the ABA to lend its prestige behind a fight in Congress for pay increases for federal judges, who haven't received a pay hike for nearly six years. Burger also called for an immediate 20 per cent increase in federal judicial salaries and annual cost-of-living hikes after the pay reaches parity with wages of career federal personnel. Federal judges earn between $40,000 and $62,500 a year. Bridge collapses killing three SILOAM, N.

Hugh Atkinson who heard cries for help after the Siloam Road Bridge near their home collapsed about 10 p.m. Sunday night, according to State Trooper Ed Dew. When they went to investigate, the thick fog obscured the broken section and their car plunged into the river, Dew said. The third victim was identified as Mrs. Judy Brown Needham, 28, of Pinnacle.

We are specialists in what we do for over 50 years Ford expected to match GM pricetag cuts DETROIT (AP) Car rebate offers expire this week and Ford Motor Co. is expected to match General Motors' decision to lower the price tag on some compact models by eliminating some standard equipment. The $100 to $600 rebates, which went into effect in early January, boosted car sales and whittled away at new car inventories, but not nearly enough to force the car companies to increase production back workers. With 13 assembly lines closed this week, 255,000 of the industry's 683,000 blue-collar workforce are laid off. Ford President Lee Iacocca says Ford will step up production 50 per cent next month and begin calling back some of the 35,000 workers who are indefinitely laid off.
Eight of Ford's assembly lines are closed this week. Three are closed at GM and two at Chrysler. GM was able to reduce the sticker price on nine of its small cars by $104 to $313 by knocking off some standard equipment. However, the cost of its lowest -price model the Chevrolet Vega remained unchanged. Reports indicate Ford will match GM's pricing move, but the No.

4, unique the rebate other program U.S. out auto makers had to match or exceed the offers or lose sales. The same is expected to be true if GM's price cuts go unchallenged. The GM price cuts were accomplished by taking such features as steel-belted radial tires, day-night mirrors and custom trims and making them optional rather than standard equipment. Dealers said the price reduction should help sluggish sales somewhat by allowing the marginal car buyer to save money by not buying features that might not have been wanted in the first place.
Gurney jury selection starts today TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Jury selection begins today in the trial of former Sen. Edward Gurney on charges of bribery and conspiracy. U.S. District Court Judge Ben Krentzman has ordered a large pool of prospective jurors to be on hand to speed selection of a 12-member panel and five alternates.
The number of co-defendants on trial with Gurney has dwindled from 6 to 4, with two former campaign aides granted severances. All, including Gurney, are charged with conspiring to collect a $233,000 slush fund from builders who sought Gurney's influence in government-sponsored housing projects and mortgage insurance. Gurney is also charged with bribery, unlawful compensation and four counts of making false statements to the grand jury that indicted him last July after a year-long probe. He is the first incumbent senator to be indicted since 1924. After the indictment, he withdrew from a race for re-election under pressure from the Republican party, saying there was no "sensible or sound way" to conduct the race while facing a major trial.
Gurney, 60, was former President Richard M. Nixon's strongest ally on the Senate Watergate Committee. Facing trial with Gurney are: James L. Groot of Washington, Gurney's former administrative assistant; Joseph Bastien, former head of Gurney's Winter Park field office; K. Wayne Swiger, suspended Tampa Federal Housing Administration director, and Ralph Koontz, a former Jacksonville FHA official.

But some officials believe long-term sales are possible if Russia continues to invest as heavily in its livestock sector as now indicated. As of Jan.
1, Pope said, Soviet livestock inventories were at record levels. The total cattle herd, for example, was 109.1 million head, up from 106.3 a year earlier, and 104 million on Jan. 1, 1973. Pope said Soviet capital investment in agriculture was increased 9 per cent last year and that a similar boost is planned i in 1975. Narmington's CLEANING LAUNDERING ROUTE SPECIAL OFF J.
