Settergren-Carey Funeral Home has charge of Convict I FROM fAClT) Bozemen officials found the car at the airport, just as the letter said with keys and full tank of gas and impounded it until Ecklund could retrieve it. Authorities believe Walker took a flight from Bozeman to Seattle.

From Washington there is no further sign of Walker and his family. Meeks said he was holding back the routine request to federal authorities for a "Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution" warrant. Such a warrant would allow federal agents to join the hunt for Walker. Meeks said "I think we can find him first before going to any federal action." For Meeks, Walker's disappearance was particularly disquieting, since he had spent a great deal of time and effort working with Walker and encouraging him in school. Walker was the second work-release prisoner within a month to walk away from the jail.

On Feb- 29, a state prison work-release inmate, Loren E. Carding, 37, studying at the Billings Business College, walked away. He later surrendered to authorities in Hardin. Walker had pleaded guilty to the felony charge of "grand larceny by bailee" on Jan. 7 and was sentenced to spend 18 months in jail on the condition he support his family by working and continue his education.

At the end of the jail term he was to serve six months additional time on probation. Walker had been arrested in Nebraska Nov. 30, 1971. He was charged with taking a rental car from Billings and charging his way across the country with two credit cards stolen from D. W.

Fruschour of Fort Morgan, Colo. He had been making restitution to both credit card companies from earnings of his work-release job. Walker is described as 260 pounds, white, brown hair and eyes. His wife is young, dark hair and of medium build. The sheriff's basketball team, composed of deputies and a few jail inmates, had played in a city league and Walker had been a valuable player, authorities said.

FREE instruction with purchase always. THE THREADED NEEDLE Level 3 104 Nader fiipllligflll "after three years of neglect." The consumers, he said, will have to pay for at least some of this policy. THE ECONOMIST FROM Harvard said that the price commission's policies, in effect, gave big companies a free hand to raise prices whenever market conditions warrant.

He urged that the price commission, with the assistance of the Securities and Exchange Commission, begin as soon as possible to audit the first-quearter profit reports of the big "tier one" companies with sales of $100 million a year or more. Eckstein also charged that the Cost of Living Council, instead of trying to enforce Phase Two rules, is seeking to place the blame for inflation "as far from the government's doorstep as possible." Rep. Parren J. Mitchell, a Democrat from Baltimore, urged the commission to take action to prevent the gouging of inner city ghetto dwellers by merchants and landlords. MITCHELL, WHO IS black, said that the exemptions of small retail stores and many rented houses "militates against the poor, the black and the aged in particular." He called on the commission to establish a volunteer "price-watcher corps." Most of the other witnesses at Wednesday's hearings were representatives of trade associations who said that their industries were special cases and asked the price commission to exempt their sector from controls or provide other special considerations: Nader took the commission to task for "declining to take the profits out of price He noted that under current regulations, increased costs of materials and labors were not simply passed on to consumers.

Instead, he noted, "the manufacturer makes his profit before passing the cost along to the consumer." As an example, he said that if General Motors incurred a $100 cost increase, "it may apply, say, a 14 per cent profit margin. The consumer pays $114." NADER CONCLUDED that companies stand only to make more profits if costs increase and therefore there is less incentive to hold down costs. Nader insisted that if a corporation wanted added profits during the controls period, it must achieve those profits through increased productivity. He said that the commission's present rules allow a "profit surcharge" that will cost American consumers $750 million this year. One member of the commission, Robert Lanzillotti, expressed some agreement with Nader's position on profits and said that there was divided opinion within the commission on that issue.

Nader also criticized the secrecy surrounding the Price Commission's deliberations, saying they provided for "arbitrary, unchecked, unilateral, unmonitored secretive price decisions whose violations are almost impossible for consumers to FORECASTS Today's PPI HARDIN-BILLINGS Varia- Ventilation will be good ble cloudiness with a few snow Thursday, flurries and little temperature change through Friday.

Study on tax gets OK CHEYENNE, Wyo. (ap) -Legislative leaders gave approval Wednesday for an interim committee to proceed with a study on the possibility of an income tax in Wyoming. But the management council of the legislative Service Agency gave the study a low priority on drawing staff research and assistance that might be requested by the Interim Revenue Committee. The revenue committee chairman, State Rep. William Budd, wrote the management council that it was thought a good idea to make a study of a possible income tax in case there was a need.

He referred specifically to federal legislation pending in Congress to remove the 37 per cent mineral royalties that come to the state from the federal government. State officials fear that if that income is lost, the state might have to impose an income tax. The management council members said other research projects have caused commitments of much of the staff time available prior to the 1973 session. Sen. John Patton of Sheridan, outgoing management council chairman said there was a possibility that the automatic bill drafting system might not be ready for the 1973 legislative session.

He said time is becoming a critical factor in the project. Patton and other legislators said the delay has been caused by renovation work at the computer center needed before a new $2 million computer can be installed.
