The National Transportation Safety board, concluding its report on the accident, praised the captain of Air Canada Flight 797 for landing the jetliner despite heavy smoke in the cockpit and damaged navigational instruments, enabling the other 23 people on board to escape. But the safety board in a draft report said the captain should have act ed at least three minutes sooner than he did to begin an emergency descent. It also said the crew members failed to analyze the severity of the fire and recognize its danger. Repeatedly, crew members advised the captain that the fire in a rear lavatory was being brought under control when in fact there was no reason to believe" that the fire was being controlled, one investigator told the board. Investigators said the fire aboard Flight 797 on June 2, 1983, apparently began from an (electrical short in a lavatory motor, although the precise source of the blaze could not be determined. A circuit breaker to a flush motor popped nine minutes before the fire was discovered. The DC-- 9 was on an early evening flight from Dallas to Toronto when the fire was discovered. Envoy to Vatican Admonished (UPI) tigation at the Vatican itself had been ' carried out and had exonerated Mr. Justice WASHINGTON A high-lev- el Department attorney has admonished William Wilson, U.S. ambassador to the Vatican, for trying to involve the attorney general in an international criminal case, an official said. Wilson, a longtime member of President Reagans California Kitchen Cabinet of close advisers, wrote a letter to Attorney General William French Smith in 1982 asking Smith to determine whether Vatican banker Archbishop Paul Marcinkus was under investigation by U.S. authorities and to vouch for his character, said the official familiar with the communications. an At the time, Marcinkus American-bor- n friend of Wilson was under investigation by Italian authorities for the role he and the Vatican bank, the Institute for Religious Works, played in Italys largest banking scandal, the 1982 collapse of the $1.2 billion Banco Ambrosiano. Ambassador Wilson communicated in writing indicating there had been misunderstandings about Mr. Marcinkus and that an internal inves Marcinkus of any wrongdoing, government official said. the Although there was no ongoing U.S. investigation of Marcinkus, The determination in the Justice Department was made that a communication should go back to Ambassador Wilson and indicate that any matters concerning Mr. Marcinkus would not be an appropriate matter for the attorney generals involvement, the official said. traveling from city to city and leaving a trail of death. Serial murders are different from mass murderers, who generally kill their victims at one spot at the same time, authorities say. n serial murderers in recent years are John Wayne Gacy, awaiting execution in Illinois in the slayings of 33 boys and young men; Wayne Williams, convicted of killing children in Atlanta; David Berkowitz, New Yorks "Son of Sam killer; and Angelo Buono Jr., convicted in nine Hillside Strangler slayings in Los Angeles. Roger Depue, head of the FBIs behavioral science unit at Quantico, said the center will have the use of both FBI investigators and psychology experts. Depue said the predominant characteristic of a "serial murderer is called an organized personality like Florida killer Theodore Bundy, a former law student now facing the death sentence for killing three young women. Authorities believe he may have been responsible for many other murders of young women and girls in other states. Depue said the organized personality is someone who is sophisticated, has social skills, functions well in society and is impossible to detect. He said everyone is surprised when that individual turns out to be a killer.

Clausen said there are 65 million couples in the developing world who do not want more children, but who do not use contraceptives. The report comes shortly before an August conference in Mexico City, where 60 nations are to take part in a World Population Conference. It challenges a view, held by some members of the Reagan administration, that population is no longer the world problem it once was because the rate of growth is slowing. In an article in the summer edition of Foreign '.Affairs, former World Bank president Robert McNamara also criticizes that view, calling it "totally in error. ' slowing population growth, the old-ag- Soar for Decades The bank and McNamara argue that, while the annual rate of growth of population in the Third World reached a peak of 2.4 percent in the 1960s and is now about 2 percent, the number of people will continue to soar for several decades. This is because increased numbers of young women, born in the population boom of recent decades, are of g age. child-bearin- Under the banks hypothetical standard projection, which assumes fertility in developing countries will gradually decline to the replacement rate of 2 children per couple in the first half of the next century, the present world population of 4.8 billion would grow to more than 11 billion by 2150 and then stabilize. The population of Africa, now 385 million, will double by the end of the century regardless of the measures governments take, the report said.

About 80 percent of food shipments have gone to developing countries, led by India, Egypt, Pakistan, South Korea, South Vietnam and Indonesia. Under the program, the U.S.' government underwrites food sales or giveaways to needy countries abroad. These countries can obtain loans from the U.S. government to buy American farm products. Alternatively, the government gives them free foodstuffs through charitable organizations which the government buys privately or takes from its surplus stocks.

May United Press International WASHINGTON Third World population will more than double by the middle of the next century, causing indescribable misery unless nations begin dealing with the problem now, the World Bank president predicted Wednesday. In a speech prepared for delivery in Nairobi, Kenya, and released here along with the banks annual World Development Report, A. W. Clausen said, Poverty and rapid population growth reinforce each other. Therefore the international community has no alternative but to cooperate, with a sense of urgency, in an effort to slow population growth if development is to be achieved. Take Steps Now The report said steps taken now at relatively small cost to governments could make all the difference later. It said the population of developing countries, now 3.5 billion, could increase to 6.5 billion or more by the year 2050 and that ill 1980 there were 600 million people in 40 poor countries earning less than $135 a year. Unless we confront this dilemma today, there will be poverty-stricke- n people in tomorrows developing world in increasing numbers and indescribable misery, Clausen said. He called on .rich nations to triple or quadruple their population assistance, which totaled only $500 million in 1981, and said the bank intends to double its own lending for population programs.

In a slip of the tongue during remarks at a White House ceremony, Reagan announced a major initiative to help the starving people of or Africa, I should say America and the world. He said he would propose legislation to create a $50 million fund to help deliver food more quickly to people in Africa and elsewhere who are suffering from famine. Reagan said food would be sent overseas in advance to areas where the requirements are the greatest, so food emergencies could be met more quickly.

William Proxmire gave his Golden Fleece award Monday to a federal agriculture program that spent $11 9 million on advertisements that congressional investigators said produced negligible results. T roxmire gave his monthly award, designed to dramatize the issue of waste in government, to the Federal Crop Insurance Corporations advertising program. The purpose of this lavish expenditure of millions of taxpayer dollars was to increase awareness of the federal crop insurance program and persuade farmers that it is a good investment, Proxmire said. But farmers ended up knowing no more about this program after the ad campaign than they did before." Proxmire said a General Accounting Office study of the corporation's fiscal year 1983 advertising program said it had a negligible effect on producer awareness of the program. To add insult to injury, the FCIC is also spending an additional $1.6 million on this ad campaign in crop year 1984, the Wisconsin Democrat said. J.W. Ellis, director of congressional and public affairs for the FCIC, said the agency is phasing down its advertising program, conducting it in cooperation with private companies which sell the insurance and concentrating on presentations such as slide shows.
