RALEIGH Insurance Commissioner
John R. Ingram labeled an auto insurance
industry substitute for his plan to eliminate
age discrimination in auto liability insurance
rates a smoke screen.
Ingram, in a meeting with reporters, called
the industry's substitute a final attempt to
cloud the issue.
Legislation backed by Ingram is before the
General Assembly to eliminate age as a
consideration in setting auto liability rates
and base rates on a driver's record. It would

second blackbird kill
United Press International
PADUCAH, Ky. (U PI) With about
200.000 blackbirds dead but thousands more
still swarming, a city official said Monday
another attempt may be made to rid the town
of its feathered menace.
"We need to more thoroughly assess the
results before we go ahead," said City
Manager William Howerton. However, he
did not rule out a bird kill under favorable
weather conditions Monday night.
Due to poor visibility, a plane flying at
tree-top level Saturday night was only able
to spray 60 per cent of a 25-acre blackbird
roost that had been estimated to contain 1. 5
million birds.
The soapy chemical spray, tergitol,
removes the protective oil from the birds
feathers, causing many to die from exposure
to freezing rain.
"It is possible if the prediction is far more
rain and hopefully colder temperatures we
will spray again," said Howerton. "We
would like for it to be in the upper or lower
30s for the best results. Then it would depend
on the visibility for flying."
Meanwhile, 80 miles to the southeast,
Hopkinsville Mayor George Atkins was
awaiting word from the Army whether it was
going to go ahead and spray the chemical on
birds roosting on the Ft. Campbell Army
Post.
Army officials in Washington have been ,
hesitant to order the extermination
following an appeals court decision last
week. The decision gave them the go-ahead
but suggested the Army further consult with

the House Monday night by Rep. Craig

drivers.
Industry representatives, in appearances
before house and Senate committees, said
their plan would provide lower rates for safe
drivers but Ingram's would cost safe drivers
more and levy heavy surcharges on poor
dpfevers.
This insurance company smoke screen
will increase the rates of two million vehicles
even though the owners may have perfect
driving records, " said Ingram.
"The farm rate will be substantially
increased. It increases the rates of farmers,
school teachers, factory workers and
secretaries in spite of the fact that they have
safe driving records."
Ingram is expected to appear today before
a house insurance subcommittee and
Thursday before the Senate Insurance
Committee to present his projections of rates
under the industry's plan.
The industry, which submitted its plan to
Ingram one day before a public hearing on
the age issue by a joint legislative committee,
has titled its plan the fair plan, claiming that
in additiong to providing progressively
lower rates to youthful drivers, it would give
elderly drivers discounts.
Split comes over Mideast solution

UPI Foreign Editor
LONDON Secretary of State Henry A.
Kissinger and Soviet Foreign Minister
Andrei A. Gromyko split Monday over how
to reach Middle East peace. But they began
work on the . next strategic arms treaty
between the United States and Russia.
In the talks Sunday night and Monday in
Geneva, Kissinger put forward for the first
time the American proposals for carrying
out the agreement between President Ford
and Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev on the
next stage of limiting nuclear arms.
A senior official with Kissinger said he
believed it could be completed in two or
three months in time for a Brezhnev visit to
the United States sometime this summer.
As expected, the split occurred over the
Middle East, where Kissinger's step-by-step

diplomacy has frozen Moscow out of the
negotiations.
Even on that issue, the final communique
showed perhaps a slight relaxation in
Russia's insistence on an immediate return
to the Geneva peace conference. It said the
sessions should resume at an early date.
And, basically, the two men agreed to
continue detente.
After more than five hours of talks with
Gromyko, Kissinger flew to London
Monday night for a dinner with Prime
Minister Harold Wilson, who arrived from
Moscow himself shortly after Kissinger's
blue and silver air force jet landed.
Although there were a few stiff exchanges,
the Kissinger-Gromyko talks in Geneva did
not develop into a tense confrontation as
some American officials expected. The
senior official said they were slightly more

formal than usual but on the whole jovial.
Standing side by side in the lobby of the
Geneva Inter-Continental hotel after their
final meeting, both Kissinger and Gromyko
agreed the talks were fruitful.
Gromyko added there were some points
on which they did not agree. The major point
was the Middle East.
But the senior American official said
Kissinger believed there was less chance than
before the talks that the Soviets would carry
out a determined campaign to block the new
interim agreement between Egypt and Israel
that Kissinger will try to arrange when he
returns to the Middle East in March.
The communique covered most of the
points of the talks held at the end of
Kissinger's exploratory mission to the
Middle East but it contained no new
positions.

MAAP MOBILE TESTING SYSTEM
Texan sets
presidential
bid moving
by Steve Gerstel
United Press International
WASHINGTON Texas Sen. Lloyd
Bentson Monday joined the growing brigade
of" candidates for the Democratic
presidential nomination and claimed strong
support in most of the major states.
Bentson. 54. promised to run an energetic,
national campaign but added it would be
physically and financially impossible to
enter all the primaries leading to the 1976
convention.
Bentsen is the fifth Democrat to formally
declare his candidacy for 1976. The others
are Sen. Henry M. Jackson of Washington.
Rep. Morris K. Udall of Arizona, former
Oklahoma Sen Fred Harris and former
Georgia Gov. Jimmy Carter.
Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace and
possibly former North Carolina Gov. Terry
Sanford are also expected to jump into the
race.
Bentsen. a millionaire former business
magnate, said he was in the campaign for the
duration and told a large crowd of well
wishers in the Senate caucus room. "I
wouldn't have entered the race unless I
thought I could win."
Asked whether he would accent the vice
presidential nomination. Bentsen replied: I
should say not."
In a news conference following his
announcement, the senator said his strongest
support was in Texas.
But Bentsen. who has toured 30 states in
the last year testing his prospects, added "I
found strong support in almost all the major
states I've gone into."
Bentsen's announcement mixed the goals
of his candidacy w ith strong criticism of the
Nixon-Ford administrations.
For too long we have been adrift."
Bentsen said.
"This administration, which has been in
office since 1969. has failed to govern with
either wisdom or foresight. It has bounced
from crisis to crisis. It has reacted to the
problems of the moment. It is without
specific goals. It is without sensible plans."
Bentsen rejected President Ford's
proposed 1 million barrel a day cutback in
imported oil as an ill-conceived program and
said he was absolutely opposed to Ford's
requcsti tur an auumunai jjuu nmiiun in aiu
