of Kennebec Journal, Augusta, November 18, 1974 Ford's summit trip (Continued from Page 1) charges that nuclear weapons have been routinely brought into Japanese ports by U.S. warships. Sunday, police raided extremist hideouts in Tokyo and siezed iron staves and helmets intended for use in anti-Ford protests. At the same time, 2,600 helmeted students staged a zigzag five-mile march past government buildings and the U.S. Embassy.

In Japan, Ford will meet Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka, whose political position has been shaky. Questions about his wealth. and financial dealings as well as the nuclear controversy may lead to his political undoing. Ford and Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger will try to clear this hurdle by stressing the country-to-country relationship.

The visit to any country is to the government and not to any particular individual," the secretary of state told a news conference Friday. Ford's four-day visit, the first to Japan by an incumbent President, will cover security, nuclear nonproliferation and oil, although its primary purpose is to calm fears about U.S. overtures to mainland China and reassure Tokyo that it will be protected in any union of oilconsuming nations. The administration is keeping Ford's South Korea stop low key. A State Department report issued last month said "we do not approve of Korea's policies on human The government of President Chung Hee Park has arrested some of the country's most prominent citizens, including the only living former president, a Roman Catholic bishop, Protestant clergymen and dissident writers.

However, the United States considers South Korea important strategically. Stationed there are some 38,000 American troops and a large arsenal of nuclear weapons. The high point of the trip is expected to be the minisummit with Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev in Vladivostok Nov. 23-24.

HEWINS JR. With no reminder or prodding needed, every one has reason and should be glad to give thanks on the special day of Thanksgiving. Some people at times are inclined to measure appreciation of and for visible possessions, unmindful of intangibles for which thanks should be given. Actually, matter what individual circumstances may be, no one can truthfully say he or she has no reason to be thankful. It is our custom to associate food with Thanksgiving Day.

Fine. But a Divine Providence has bestowed countless other blessings upon us for which all of us should be thankful. For example, no matter what the state health, there should be gratitude for life itself. Whatever basic senses one has; sight, hearing, including the capability for fun and laughter are further reasons for thankfulness. As Americans all of us can be thankful for our freedoms guaranteed and protected by our Bill of Rights.

Next week we will submit a thought about the changing times concept of Thanksgiving Day. Watch for it. You should find it interesting. KNOWLTON HEWINS FUNERAL HOMES, AUGUSTA 623-8722, HALLOWELL 622-0021. 50.

However, his injuries were described as minor. The car abandoned by Knowles was unoccupied when found. Police said Knowles apparently didn't have the hostages with him when he checked into a motel in Macon, Saturday night and they had no idea where the hostages might be.

Howard. Kennebec Ice Arena burglarized HALLOWELL The Kennebec Ice Arena was broken into early Saturday morning, according to Chief of Police Robert G. Tims. Damage resulting from vandalism and burglary may total over $7,000. The principal loss was to the Pine State Vending Machines business, which operates six vending machines at the arena.

The machines had been cashed out the night before, Tims said, so there was less than $10 taken in cash, but the machines were smashed and to pieces. The vandals also wrecked the office of the Whitten Rd. establishment, and broke open a safe containing a sizable amount of money. Including a television which- was taken. total loss to the Kennebec Ice Arena was around $400, Tims said.

Entry was gained through a rear door, which was pried open with a sharp instrument. The damage was done between 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. when an employe arrived to open the arena, Tims added. Sergeant William Ellis of the Hallowell Police Department investigated, assisted by Chief Tims.

Representatives of the State Police aided in fingerprinting the area. Tims said the incident is under investigation.

Ford signed a proclamation Saturday setting quotas in order "to bring an end to the Canadian quotas" set last August, said a White House spokesman. "We believe the inflationary impact will be minimal," the spokesman said, adding: If Canada removes their quotas we will remove our restrictions." The Canadian meat restrictions violate the commitments of Canada made to the United States oppress commerce of the United States and prevent the expansion of trade on a mutually advantageous basis," the President said.

Later documents give some indication of what was done with the intelligence information. An October 1969 status report said, "As our file expanded, it soon revealed that in many instances the organizations were, for practical purposes, insolvent, while data being accumulated on their operations represented information relevant to tax matters of the individuals every file established represents potential for worthwhile IRS field effort." It is not clear from the newly released materials and others made public by the Senate Watergate Committee and similar investigative groups how many of the organizations and individuals identified later had tax problems. However, some of the organizations on the list of 99 later had their tax exempt status revoked by the revenue agency, and at least some of the people associated with one or more of the groups had their tax returns audited.

Robert M. Brandon, director of the Tax Reform Restarch Group, said the documents that the IRS went far afield of its mandate to collect taxes and enforce the nation's tax laws.
