necessary." Bergland replied.
Media members sought a response
from Bergland as to how a possible farm
program under a Kenpedy administration
would differ from the Carter administra-
tion program.
"Ted Kennedy won't run." Bergland
stated flatly. • don't know what the
Kennedy farm program is. but I know the
Caner farm program is working. Farm
income is up. exports are up. and the
livestock situation is straightened out and
we're rid of that Republican nonsense
about control of beef prices." he
continued, taking up the stride of an
apparent campaign trail for the
President.
In other comments, Bergland indicated
that the wheat target price will be raised,
with the calculation of a national average
increase while giving some cost-of-living
raise to the 22,000 bureaucrats and
federal judges whose salary is frozen at
$47,500 a year.

said St. Charles Parish Chief Deputy
Herb LeRay of the wreckage of a private
plane that crashed in a field, killing all
four aboard.
Officials had to dig eight feet into the
muddy soil to remove the bodies
Thursday.
There is nothing you can tell about that
plane except maybe the color." said
LeRay.
Tentative identifications of the victims
were made from personal belongings on
the plane, but were withheld pending
notification of relatives.
"The victims are from the central
Texas area, but that is all we can say right
now." said Ike Lucas, parish Civil
Defense director.
LeRay said they were tentatively
identified as two adult males and two
adult females.

instrument classing system" improves
cotton marketing.
So far, Bergland said, evaluations of
the instrument classing system have been
limited. State officials will measure the
impact on the entire marketing chain,
from producer to user.
Cotton is now classified by the human
eye and hand to determine grade and
fiber length. Bergland explained, while
fiber coarseness is determined by

Leal with the knife.
"The second time, he cut me on my

said.
Leal testified that he ran towards a
house next door and was chased by
Villarreal.
"Before I jumped over a fence
(between the two yards), he got me in the
back."
"What do you mean he 'got' you in the
back?" Saul asked.
"He stabbed me in the back." Leal
said.
“I fell over the fence. He tried to get
me in the heart, but I turned around.
When I fell, the knife was coming straight
for my heart. He hit me in the right
shoulder," he testified.
"Do you think he was trying to kill
you?" Saul asked.
"Yes," Leal responded.

both sides say the case may take years to
finish.
The initial trial, which ran just two
weeks short of a year long, ended
Thursday with U.S. District Judge
William Wayne Justice ordering that all
inmates who testified against the TDC be
moved to federal prisons at their
discretion.
It began Oct. 2, 1978. after Justice
consolidated several suits filed by TDC
inmates against the prison system
alleging it violated their civil rights
through brutality and poor housing, food
and medical care.
Attorneys said it probably would be
several months before Justice ruled in the
case. But they all agreed his decision, no
matter which side it favored, probably
would reach the U.S. Supreme Court.
David Vanderhoof, who was the head
attorney for the Justice Department, said
his agency intervened in the case after a
study of conditions in the Texas prison
system substantiated many of the
inmates' allegations.

"Limited test results that are available

"Did he put out his hand to shake
hands with you?" Langenenning then
asked.
Leal said that the two men had shaken
hands following the first of the two fights.
The prosecution rested following the
questioning of Leal, then the defense
called its only witness-the defendant,
who testified he. Leal and some relatives
had a barbeque at Villarreal's house at
206 Blevins before the fight.
Villarreal said that fter Leal pulled his
beard. "I slapped him and he got kinda
mad."
After Villarreal pulled out the knife,
“my mother told me to put it away. So I
put it in my back pocket. Me and Carlos
were still arguing. He called me words in
Spanish, nasty words. He was mad and
he came at me. He kicked me right
between the legs, so I got my knife out
and swung it at him.”
Villarreal said he did not realize he had
cut Leal on the chest.
Saul asked Villarreal why he stabbed
Leal in the back. “I was mad," Villarreal
responded.

questioning ensued:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Smarting from
three straight defeats. House supporters
of a congressional pay raise are gearing
up for an all-out shootout over the
politically-sensitive question.
House leaders strongly indicated the
showdown could come today.
The stage was set when the
Appropriations Committee voted Thurs-
day to report a new bill containing a
proposed 5.5 percent pay increase for
members of Congress and top level
bureaucrats.
That committee action came shortly
after the House rejected a 7 percent pay
hike by a 212-196 margin.
The Rules Committee, which sets the
ground rules for House action, has
decreed that any amendment anyone
wants to offer will be in order when the
latest pay raise proposal comes up on the
House floor.
That means opponents can try to kill
the pay raise outright or can try to
exclude Congress from any salary

WASHINGTON (AP) - The United
States and Mexico, after two years
of negotiations, have reached an
agreement for the sale of Mexican natural
gas to U.S. pipeline firms. State
Department officials said today.
The announcement of the agreement
was scheduled for this afternoon.
The initial price of the gas will be
$3,625 per thousand cubic feet, said the
sources, who declined to be identified.
The price will rise in the future, based on
an index tht ties it to the price of fuel oil.
Deputy Secretary of State Warren
Christopher reached the agreement in a
trip to Mexico City this week, spurred by
Carter administration desire to complete
it in time for the visit to Washington next
week of Mexican President Jose Lopez
Portillo.
The purchase price of the Mexican gas
is well above the current American
market price of about $2.25, but it is also
considerably below what Mexico
originally wanted.
However, the Mexicans did manage to
peg the price of gas to the ever-rising cost
of oil.
