MIAMI (AP) Hurricane Floyd built its winds to 100 mph Monday and pushed toward the rocky tourist island of Bermuda where 55,000 residents and 10.000 visitors were put under an emergency alert. All interests on Bermuda should take action to protect life and property, said Dr. Neil Frank, director of the National Hurricane Center in Miami. The hurricane is expected to be over or near the island Tuesday morning. Meanwhile, weakening Hurricane Emily was downgraded to tropical-storstatus and the hurricane center began monitoring a tropical disturbance about 250 miles of east of Martinique. Bermuda is the largest island in a chain of 20 inhabited islands more than 580 miles east of North Carolina in the Atlantic Ocean. While it is nearing the end of the tourist season, an estimated 5.000 to 10,000 visitors were in Bermuda, mostly Americans and Canadians. This is relatively a small hurricane, but the gale winds are extending farther and farther out, forecaster Bob Sheets said. They could start feeling it this evening. Sheets said officials didnt expect widespread evacuations. Most of Bermuda has fairly rocky type formations, so the residences are up a little bit, Sheets said. t, Floyd, shifting from north to was moving at 10 mph and more strengthening was possible during the night, forecasters said. Rapped By NATO By Henry Gottlieb Associated Press Writer The North BRUSSELS, Belgium Atlantic Treaty Organization said Monday the Soviet Union violated the spirit of East-Wepeace agreements by not telling the Western alliance how many troops are on maneuvers near Poland. st A NATO spokesman said there also was concern because Western observers had not been invited to the current nine days of Soviet war games, unlike previous years. Permanent representatives of the alliances 15 member nations discussed the maneuvers Monday, the spokesman said, and concluded that the failure of the Soviet Union to provide the number of participating forces raises serious concern. 100,000 Troops The official Soviet news agency Tass has said more than 100,000 troops have been taking part in sea, air and land exercises in the Baltic Sea, the Soviet Baltic states and the western Soviet republic of Byelorussia bordering Poland. Tass reported Monday that troops and naval forces staged small mock battles in preparation for larger engagements before the war games end Saturday. The Soviet reports indicate that the pace of the maneuvers has been gradually increasing. ncrth-northeas- --Associated Press Leserptwto Triplets for Actor LOS ANGELES Actor Richard Thomas is joined by his son, Richard, In a rare official comment, the NATO spokesman said the Soviet Union notified Western countries of the maneuvers Aug. 14 but did not say how many troops would be involved.

Plume Scientists Call Off Alert After St. Helens Erupts so. countries, including the Soviet Union, signed an agreement in Helsinki in 1975 to give formal notification of any maneuvers involving more than 25,000 troops. The NATO spokesman said that since the agreement the Soviet Union usually has supplied the exact number of troops participating. The publication by the Tass agency of a figure of 100,000 participating is not to be considered formal notification, In fact, the the spokesman said. magnitude and general location as specified by Tass give rise to legitimate questions. Similiar Protests NATO members Belgium, West Germany and the United States have made similar, separate protests recently. The U.S. State Department said Friday the maneuvers might be intended to intimidate the Polish labor movement. The independent union Solidarity is holding its first congress in Gdansk, near the Soviet border. The NATO spokesman was asked if the Soviet Union had violated the letter as well as the spirit of the Helsinki accords by not officially reporting the number of troops maneuvering. It is now almost impossible to tell since the Soviet Union developed the maneuvers in secrecy and has invited he replied. no observers, But all indications, including the Tass statements, would lead in that direction. The spokesman said the Soviet Union had been notified of all allied exercises this autumn, including those involving less than 25,000 troops. e Wash. (AP) Mount St. Helens latest eruption apparently ended Monday as scientists called off a volcanic alert and said the mountains restricted red zone will reopen. All the indicators are that the eruption appears to be over, said Dick Janda, geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey. USGS crews enSeveral three-ma- n tered the volcanos crater Monday, some spending several hours, Janda said. He said scientists were unsure if the dome-shape- d formation of hardened lava in the volcanos crater has VANCOUVER, stopped growing, though growth seems to have subsided. "Blowing and wind conditions are very severe, said Tom Casadevall of the USGS. Flew Over Volcano At daybreak Monday, a USGS crew flew 10,000 feet above the volcano and spotted incandescent rockfalls similar to those seen late Sunday on the eastern edge of the dome, said Holly Martinson of the USGS. A steam plume rose more than a half-mil- e above the crater rim at 3:45 a.m. Monday, said Janda. Earthquakes and other seismic activity then dropped off, spurring the USGS to end the alert at 5 p.m. Monday, J anda said. The alert had been called at 1 :30 p.m. Sunday. The restricted red zone around the At 6 p.m. EDT, the hurricane was centered near latitude 30.0 north, longitude 67.5 west, or about 225 miles southwest of Bermuda. Gales were extending 100 miles to the north and east and were expected to spread over Bermuda during the night. Residents of Bermuda were put on emergency alert at 3 p.m. as the storm moved closer and the government began broadcasting regular bulletins. People were told not go out in the streets unless strictly necessary, to keep all animals indoors and to fasten down all moveable objects. Floyd formed late Thursday north of the Virgin Islands and became thg third hurricane of the season Saturday- Far to the north, Emily was moving at erratically toward the 10 mph. Highest winds, sapped by chilly North Atlantic waters, were estimated at 65 mph. At 6 p.m., Emily was located about 345 miles of St. Johns, Newfoundland, near latitude 42.5 north, longitude 53.5 west. The hurricane brought rain and high east-northea- st volcano will be reopened Tuesday morning by the Forest Service, he added. Were still keeping a close eye on the situation, Janda said. Scientists were predicting more seismic events, reflecting continuing rockfalls and avalanches inside the crater, he said. Cables Destroyed Scientists also found that the latest round of volcanic activity destroyed some cables that carry signals from monitors to a transmitter. Replacing the cables will not be difficult, Janda said. He said scientists dont know how much the latest eruption increased the size of the dome, which had been 450 feet tall and 1,400 feet wide. The old dome was made up of five lobes of rock, and the new lobe added Sunday is less than half the size of the previous lobes, said Janda. Scientists say it is unlikely the volcano will give rise to a towering ash eruption like those during the summer of 1980. Instead, this latest eruption involved growth in the dome. Scientists still cannot pinpoint exactly when the eruption began, but Janda said the USGS and the University of Washington Geophysics Center have agreed to say it started at 2:15 p.m. the time earthquakes and Sunday avalanches started occurring most frequently. low-lev- el south-southwe- st Reduction in Rolls Planned i 1 In Costliest Welfare Program 11 B Continued From Page One are otherwise eligible. But Congress agreed to make age 18 a cutoff point for eligibility. This is expected to make 25,000 families ineligible and cut benefits of 6,000 families, saving $66 million. Among program changes for which the department was unable to provide estimates' of the number of people involved was one where the amount of allowable resources, besides a house and a car, would be reduced from $2,000 to $1,000. Savings from that change B would be relatively small: $16 million. Other changes include one where states would be required to count food stamps and housing subsidies in assessing family income, which is expected to save $100 million; and a change to prohibit aid to strikers, at a savings of $5 million. officials said their Departmental estimate of families affected by the various changes is a statistical estimate drawn from a sample of 23,000 cases nationwide.

Rakoff said neither he nor Dr. John J. Willens, the University Hospital physician who delivered the baby on Aug. 18, had ever heard of birth by a woman with a case of premature ovarian failure.

Any other proposals are unlikely to go to Congress for at least another month, and it is uncertain whether any would have much impact on the budget before fiscal 1983. Supporting tax increases could be politically embarrassing for a president whose central economic theme has been one of cutting taxes to stimulate the economy. However, tax increases may be the only way for Reagan to balance the federal budget, which most economists outside the administration predict is headed for ever widening deficits. Growing deficits could keep interest tax-raisi- defense budgets - has serious implications for the ability of the United States to defend its national interests during the rest of this century, Tower said. Administration officials have indicated privately they may be asking Congress for cuts in such popular programs as aid to education, agricultural subsidies and medical assistance. The administration is studying where cuts can be made and no final decisions are expected until later in the week, at the earliest. Congress has not finished work on any of the 13 appropriations bill that provide the money every year for the federal government. Also this week, confirmation hearings begin Wednesday for Sandra Day OConnor, nominated by Reagan to be the first female member of the Supreme Court. The depression, located in the Atlantic about 120 miles east of Martinique at 6 p.m., was moving toward the west at about 14 mph. Winds were estimated at 35 mph with higher gusts in squalls. The medications are commonly given women after menopause to ease uncomfortable symptoms and to help keep bones strong. But they also act as contraceptives, said Rakoff. If I had wanted children, I could have tried years ago but I wasnt mentally ready, the new mother said. Besides, I didnt think it would be the right thing for me to have a baby, being a single person. Rakoff said there is no medical therapy to reverse premature ovarian failure. He said he and Willens believe an egg may have been left after the ovaries shut down. Beyond the Point said pediatricians pronounced the baby healthy. He noted that at the time the pregnancy was discovered, the mother was beyond the point where anything could have been done if she had opted to terminate her pregnancy. But he said she wanted no tests to determine if the fetus was normal because she was going to carry through with the pregnancy irrespective of anything. And she did. Willens rates at historic highs for the indefinite future. Position of Reagan Reagan has vowed to keep trimming federal spending. But it is questionable whether he can get enough cuts through Congress to offset rising interest rates, which drive up government borrowing costs, and to offset the recently approved tax cut, which will slash revenues by an estimated $750 billion in the next five years. McNamar emphasized that except for the user fees, no decisions on new tax proposals have been made either by top officials at his department or at the White House. He said the search for increased taxes is a Treasury-initiate- d project in its preliminary stages. The department is looking at a catalogue, a menu, from which we will pick and choose after more study, said McNamar, the No. 2 treasury official. It is understood that adoption of all the proiosals the department is considering would increase revenues by more than $50 billion in fist, al 1983. But Treasury officials said there is no way the whole list will be approved. Cigarettes, Alcohol One proposal would raise excise taxes on cigarettes and alcohol by $7 billion. Another would limit the amount of interest costs that could be deducted from income taxes. McNamar said the administration is considering many ideas for dealing with tax abuses such as the growing in which underground economy, people avoid taxes by unreported cash transactions. The administration may try to get g proposals through Congress before the end of the year and go back next spring with tax-cu- t proposals that Congress could enact in time for 1982 the elections, he said. revenue-raisin- See You At STAR VALLEY RANCH in beautiful Western Wyoming Lake City, Utah 84110.
