Guilty of Theft
DALLAS (AP) — A 76-year-old
civic leader and arts patron has been
found guilty of theft and three counts
of misapplying funds entrusted to him
by the Dallas Independent School
District.
James H Bond, the former presi-
dent of the Foundation for Quality
Education, faces a maximum
sentence of 20 years in prison and
$40,000 in fines for stealing about
$4,000 and misapplying monies that
were paid to a contractor, pledged as
collateral on an $80,000 loan, and used
for an employee’s car loan
Bond was acquitted of a fourth fund
misapplication charge.
Jurors are set to begin hearing
testimony Wednesday on the punish-
ment phase of the trial.
"It’s not over yet," Bond said after
Monday's verdict. "I have to be guid-
ed by my attorneys."
Bond was indicted March 5 on
charges that he stole $25,000 by forg-

NEW YORK (API - One
week before the presidential
election, millions of
Americans are still wavering
on the question of whom to
support, with tonight's debate
between Jimmy Carter and
Ronald Reagan holding the
key for many, an Associated
Press-NBC News poll says.
Not only are 25 percent of
likely voters undecided, the
survey found, but many of
those who have made a ten-
tative choice also said they
may change their minds
before actually casting votes
next Tuesday.
The latest AP-NBC News
poll says Reagan leads
Carter by 6 percentage
points. Other published polls
say the race is closer, with
some making it a dead heat.
Generally, comparable
results from all these polls
fall within the error margins
of such surveys, meaning the
race is really too close to call.
The AP-NBC News poll,
taken Wednesday through
Friday, is based on telephone
interviews with 1,574 likely
voters nationwide.
When likely voters were
asked whom they would vote
for if the election were held
now, 42 percent said Reagan,
and 36 percent named Carter.
Independent candidate John
Anderson was the choice of 10

Millions of Americans Remain

efforts to monitor foreign in-
vestment are so "inadequate,
disjointed and poorly im-
plemented that we’re just
guessing.
It’s become a wry joke in
Hawaii to say that "Japanese
who could not conquer Pearl
Harbor - have now bought it
instead."
Of course it works both
ways. Generations of
Americans have done a lot of
investing overseas; some
left, so confused that they personal, most corporate.
Multinational corporations
get so spread around that
they know no national
allegiance.
But what well might worry
us is that buying abroad more
than we are selling abroad
means that we are "expor-
ting jobs" also.
Recent widespread layoffs
in our automobile and steel
industries are directly
traceable to imports. Unions
in these trades demand that
government "do something.”
The logical "something” is
tariffs on imports, but that
could result in upward
pressure on prices - com-
pounding the hurt.
A bitter bumper sticker

response to competition from
abroad would be to
reestablish a business
climate which encourages

States.

HOUSTON AP) — Conservative
and moderate factions are squaring
off for another round in their ongoing
fight over Biblical interpretations as
an expected record number of Texas
Baptists convene here today.
The annual 3-day session of the
Baptist General Convention of Texas
could be a battleground for opposing
forces debating the issue of Biblical
■ inerrancy" - acceptance of the Bi-
ble as the exact word of God.
Conservative forces backing the in-
errancy concept, led by Paige Patter-
son of Dallas, and Paul Pressler, a
civil appeals judge from Houston,
have vowed to take over the Southern
Baptist Convention, a 13.7 milbon-
member Protestant denomination.
At the heart of the controversy are
Baptist institutions in Texas, where
the state convention owns and
operates 23 children's homes,
hospitals and colleges.

EPA regulations would have that foreigners own $350

cost of building and operating
the drying pits by requiring,
among other things, that ex-
tensive fencing be installed
and that numerous test holes
be drilled around the
perimeter of each pit.
