Show Federal Reserve Discusses Market for Paper DIPLOMATIC POUCH The following letters were recently answered by the Department of State: Could you recapitulate for me what the U.S. Government did to secure the release of the four U.S airmen who were abducted on March 4 last in Ankara, Turkey? L.T. Stamford, Conn. Dear L.T.: Throughout the period of the airmen's captivity the American Embassy in Ankara maintained the closest contact with the government of Turkey and the U.S. government, in turn, with the families of all the men, who were kept fully informed of all developments on a very timely basis. The release unharmed of the four airmen on the night of March 8 was the culmination of five days of the most intensive search effort in Turkish history. It is clear that many thousands of men of Turkeys security force were committed to an around the clock effort. During the course of the search of a university near Ankara, where the armed leftists were known to have taken refuge, three Turks were killed and nearly 20 were wounded. The prestige of the government of Turkey was imperiled in this effort and it took considerable political risks in mounting the extraordinary effort to secure the release of the airmen. The firm position of the government of Turkey that it will not meet the demands of the terrorists, of which ransom was one was a decision taken by it alone. Any other course of action probably would have been political suicide for that government as it would have been viewed as bowing to those elements which have so disrupted Turkeys ur ban areas. However, we did make our views known to the government of Turkey on the question of ransoming; namely, that it would be unwise and be likely to lead to further acts of the same nature. The recent resignation of the government of Turkey was precipitated by dissatisfaction with the internal security situation. Despite the vigorous action taken to recover the airmen, the very fact that the abduction can take place was regarded as an indication that the government was unable to restore order in Turkeys larger cities. Although the manner in which the governments resignation was brought about, through an ultimatum of Turkeys military leadership may be a harbinger of further difficulty in Turkey, it is reassuring that the first priority of any successor government will be the restoration of domestic tranquility. to communicate with a citizen of the Soviet Union without permission?

The commercial paper market is discussed in a recent issue of the Monthly Re view of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. Between early 1966 and mid 1970 commercial paper became an important source of corporate funds as outstandings jumped from $10 billion to almost $40 billion, helped along by the entrance of bank holding companies into the field after mid 1969. Then last spring, outstandings fell by almost $6 billion within four mouths' time, ond fluctuated between $32 and $34 billion for the rest of 1970. Commercial paper is short term unsecured corporate debt with a maturity of under nine months. As a money market instrument, commercial paper is designed to meet the demand of investors (such as the corporate treasurers and bankers) for a safe, liquid asset, but the Penn Central bankruptcy action last year seriously affected the market, as Penn Central had $82 million in paper outstanding at that time. Even so, certain reforms, including tighter credit standards for commercial paper came out of the incident, giving the market a firmer base for more gradual, but a sounder future growth. The civil air transport Industry now sees its passengers and its profits all but disappearing, according to another article in the same issue of the Review. This is in sharp contrast to past years of congested airports and clamoring passengers, and is causing the industry to concentrate on ways of improving efficiency. Between 1966 and 1970 the air liens load factor, the number of revenue passengers as a percent of the number of available seats dropped from 58 to 48 persent and the net income statement for the major trunk lines shifted from a $239 million profit in 1966 to a $75 million loses in 1970. The air lines initial reaction to the drop in capacity use was to call on the Civil Aero naurtics Board to raise fares but by year end they tried to help themselves through major cost reduction campaigns. How can parents of entering freshmen find out more about the University of Utah? What academic and extra curricular activities await their children? What kind of vocational counseling services are available? What about financial aids or scholarships? Such questions have been on the minds of parents whose children will attend the U of U this fall for the first time. The answers will be provided at a new Parent Orientation program, to be held on Wednesday evenings for six weeks. Parents need to become more involved with their childrens uinversity experiences and that is exactly what the Parent Orientation program sets out to do, said William D. Fowler, coordinator of the program. U personnel will discuss with parents the various University services and facilities and answer questions on academic and vocational counseling services. The parents program is being held in conjunction with freshman student orientation. Incoming freshmen will attend a full day of academic counseling, registration and campus tours a week or two before their parents meet with school personnel. At the Wednesday sessions, scheduled 7 to 9 p.m., parents will hear from Dr. R. Edward Packard, director of the Counseling Center and assistant professor of educational psychology The British are coming! The British are coming! The resounding cry of Paul Reveres warning will echo in the streets and homes of Salt Lake City and the listening area of KALL radio on July 20, when the British Overseas Airways Corporation presents British Radio Day. Early risers will be awakened by God Save the Queen and the chimes of Big Ben. They may think they are in a dream, but theyll discover, as the day progresses, that the radio hours will be filled with a little bit of Britain, right in Salt Lake. The British Consul General plans to offer an official greeting to Mayor J. Bracken Lee, KALL and the people of Salt Lake City. KALL's normal sound will remain the same, but all sounds will take on a British accent, including the morning and evening traffic reports (done by an Irishman). From marching bands to mood music to the rollocking pub songs of England as well as a bit of British rock all will be featured. who will discuss career development. A panel discussion will follow with representatives from the administration, Registrars Office, Financial Aids and Scholarships Office, Counseling Center and the studentbody. An open question and answer period will conclude the meetings. CLEAN WASH OR CLEAN WATER? Ecology-Minde- Women d Want Both On Washday NEW YORK (ED) Theres a new crisis looming on the pollution front.
