Government officials said an all-out strike by the 269,000 miners would be a disastrous blow for British industry, already hard hit by a slowdown by the miners and by the cut in Arab oil supplies. Rail traffic has also been disrupted by a union job action. Officials said a strike now probably would end government plans to relax the three-day work week and would mean more power cuts and more mass layoffs of workers. Miner leaders ordered a strike ballot and added a recommendation for an all-out walkout. Mineworkers president Joe Gormley said I expect a 70 per cent vote for a strike." Gormley said balloting would begin Jan. 3 1 or Feb. 1 and the result known less than a week afterwards. Prime Minister Edward Heath sent a personal letter to Gormley as the 27-man miners executive met Thursday. Double Feature Lata Show Fri. & Sat. 11:15 PM SAMTANA . r.TE1 AHT r e vMW'M'T ALSO T.

Henry M. Jackson, D-Wash., Thursday proposed a rollback of prices for crude oil and other petroleum products, along with controls that would keep them from rising except on the basis of legitimate cost increases. Jackson's legislative proposal came as Senate Democrats, persuaded by oil-state members, backed away from a resolution by Sen. Walter F. Mondale, D-Minn., which would have put them on record as favoring a price rollback to Nov. 1 levels. The Jackson bill would set no specific level for a rollback, but would wipe out any increases that could not be fully justified by he oil industry as a determinant of higher -osts. Federal energy director William E. Simon called As prime minister I urge most strongly that at your meeting your executive should consider the position as it affects the rest of the country. Heath said, and he offered fresh peace talks. Gormley said the union would be willing to meet Heath but only if he promises more money will be offered. The National Coal Board, with government backing, has offered a 16.5 per cent pay hike. The miners demanded 30-35 per cent. Heath and his cabinet met in emergency session Thursday at No. 10 Downing St. Government officials said it probably would take only four to five weeks of an all out strike before power stations would have to shut down. Pointing up the extent of Britains crisis, the government announced more than two and a quarter million Britons were registered as jobless on Jan. 14. It said 1,657,800 were temporarily laid off because of the three-day week and 636,558 were listed as unemployed. The mid December total was 513,463. 5 f'Tf7?1 f ml - t vl ST Cr. c mS If Itt 'II I s4 r Return of: (1 ; I j ii nv:7 Mil I I -Tvl HI" hi I r-'i n a I) U U - 9 &'!: U fr I opposed Jackson's proposal, and took issue with some provisions in a tax and import measure offered by Sen. Mike Gravel, D- Alaska. For his part. Gravel opposed the Mci'.'-.I resolution presented at a Democratic caucus, saying: "We can pass all the laws we want to rolling prices back all we'd do is give the American people no gas to buy. You can't repeal the law of supply and demand. Krogh gets jail term WASHINGTON Egil "Bud" Krogh, former head of the White House plumbers unit, said Thursday after being sentenced to a minimum of six months in jail that he received no instructions from President Nixon to break into the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist. Krogh, 34, who pleaded guilty Nov. 30 to one count of violating the civil' rights of psychiatrist Lewis J. Fielding, said he was authorized to "engage in cover activity" by Nixon's former adviser, John D. Erlichman. Although Krogh could have been sentenced to a maximum 10 years in jail and a $10,000 fine, U.S. District Judge Gerhard A. Gesell said he took into consideration Krogh's deep sense of remorse and that his "wholly improper, illegal task was assigned ...by a higher authority." Senate puts off tax cut WASHINGTON The Senate approved an across-the-board reduction in income taxes Thursday, but then reversed itself and killed the bill. Chairman Russell B. Long, D-La., of the Senate Finance Committee, prevailed upon the Senate to send the bill back to his committee for reconsideration of two controversial amendments. One would ' have raised the personal exemption each tax-payer is entitled to claim for himself and each of his dependents to $850 from its existing $75Q. La wa 14 mi i f mm"m&2 T?

Franklin In prepared remarks on his legislation. Jackson said whereas the oil industry was saying a year ago that crude oil prices of $4.35 to $4.55 a barrel would be suf ficient to spur development toward self-sufficiency, crude oil from older wells has gone to S5.25 and "new oil" from fresh drilling is now at $10.35. "No one in the administration has offered any serious justification for either the jump in old oil prices or for decontrolling new oil," he said. "What seems to be at work is a continuing conviction that the way to eliminate the fuel shortage is to increase prices by taxes or otherwise high enough to limit demand by pricing gasoline and fuel oil beyond the reach of many Americans." Simon, appearing with Jackson earlier on the CBS Morning News program, said cf the proposal: "1 want reasonable prices, absolutely. But a rollback didn't we learn in the food area last year the drowning of baby chicks, etcetera what an uneconomic price that is for long run objectives of self sufficiency in this country? "We can keep oil and gas at reasonable levels in this country and still give the incentives for additional production and exploration to bring on the ability for sel sufficiency. And the alternative is to subject ourselves to the Khadafys of the world who charge us $10, $15 and $20 a barrel." The other would have sharply increased the "minimum tax a tax paid mostly by millionaires and corporations who benefit from tax preferences often called "loopholes." The administration opposed both amendments. Both amendments were offered as riders to a bill offering tax relief for the families of servicemen who had been PO Ws in Vietnam. The bill itself had become a vehicle for a number of minor riders decried by liberals. m B Lub.kMkw Tf i ri r e-z wider. We're the original high quality, slow burning paper of double width.
