THE STATE JOURNAL May 4, 1974 Already in Prison Edith Irving Seeks Divorce ZURICH, Switzerland (AP) Edith Irving walked out of a Swiss prison Friday and said she will seek a divorce from her husband Clifford, whose $650,000 Howard R. autobiography hoax put her there. After the diHushes, said, she will pursue a career as an artist to try and repay gigantic financial claims pending against her for her part in the 1972 hoax. She estimated that claims against her, her husband and Richard Susskind, Irving's associate, total $1,365,100. The 38-year-old blonde was paroled for good behavior 14 months after a Swiss judge sentserve two years for fraud and forgery convictions.

She served two months in 1972 in a county jail in New York. France Prepares for Election (AP) Candidates to France's wide-open presidential election race made their final appeals to the nation Friday night as the official campaign for Sunday's voting closed. Francois Mitterran, Socialist leader backed the large French Communist party and other leftists, and Finance Minister Valery Giscard d'Estaing, head of the junior coalition party in the Gaullist-run government, were the front runners in opinion polling. There was growing speculation that Mitterand could possibly win the election in the first ballot. He has been front-runner and steadily gaining support in opinion polls throughout the campaign since President Georges Pompidou's death April 2.

Cambodian Camp Besieged PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) Insurgent gunners forced government defenders to abandon part of the Longvek camp Friday, where 21,000 besieged refugees and 4,000 soldiers have dwindling supplies and little hope of rescue. Ten miles south of Longvek on Highway 5, government troops seeking to link up with the camp skirmished with some of the estimated 1,000 rebels blocking their way. But government sources have held out little hope for reinforcing or evacuating the camp, and observers say the defenders will have to fight the insurgents off or be overrun. After a long and intense insurgent rocket and artillery barrage, Longvek defenders pulled out of a recruit training center on the southwestern end of the sprawling camp 25 miles north of Phnom Penh. National News Roundup Nixons To Open Expo '74 SPOKANE, Wash.

(AP) The Expo '74 world's fair, the environmental exposition that almost wasn't, begins Saturday with President and Mrs. Nixon joining a predicted 50,000 visitors for opening-day activities. Commerce Secretary Frederick Dent and five ambassadors to the United States, including Russian Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin, are among other notables scheduled to attend the opening. The fair on a 100-acre island in the Spokane River has been controversial since it was proposed. At one point, lack of funding made it a question ever would start.

The fair will close in six months. Officials hope it will attract five million visitors. Sen. Long Forecasts Tax Cut WASHINGTON (AP) Chairman Russell B. Long, D- of the Senate Finance Committee said Friday he 1 believes Congress will vote for an income tax cut.

"What we are going to vote is a straight tax cut," said Long. Long, commenting in a television interview taped for constituents, said he though President Nixon "would be wise to go along with us on that tax cut." "There may be enough votes to override a veto if President vetoes it," said Long. The administration already has said it opposes any tax cut. Nixon has said a tax cut would create inflation. He also has said the economic could be considerably different by the time the full of a tax cut is felt.

picture, Gasoline Prices Go Up, Down NEW YORK (AP). Texaco, Inc. raised and Gulf Oil Co. lowered wholesale gasoline prices Friday, both citing changes in the cost of crude oil obtained from abroad. Texaco said it was boosting prices on all varieties of gasoline by three cents a gallon "to cover the higher costs of imported crude oil and petroleum products now coming into Texaco's system in greater volume." Gulf, noting lowered costs on imported crude, dropped prices 3.5 cents a gallon.

Earlier the week, citing higher costs, Marathon Oil raised wholesale gasoline prices 4.3 cents a gallon, Shell Oil 4.8 cents a gallon, Skelly Oil 3.2 a gallon, and Standard Oil of Ohio and BP Oil both 6 cents a gallon.

Michigan Roundup Murder Conviction Upheld DETROIT (AP) The first-degree murder conviction of a schoolteacher's son in the slaying of Wayne County Road Commission Chairman Michael Berry's wife has been upheld by a three-judge Michigan Court of Appeals panel. David Leroy Bennett, 19, is serving a life imprisonment sentence in Southern Michigan Prison after being convicted by a Wayne County Circuit Court jury in October 1972. His attorney appealed the verdict, arguing that blood-stained clothing taken from Bennett at a State Police crime laboratory should not have been used as evidence against him.

The attorney contended the clothing never was properly traced to Bennett. Appeals Judges Donald E. Holbrook, Glenn S. Allen Jr. and J.

J. Van Valkenburg, however, ruled that a chain of possession was established by State Police officers who took the clothing and initialed each item. Nixon Fares Poorly in Poll BATTLE CREEK (AP) President Nixon fared poorly in a newspaper poll on the question of whether his tape transcripts demonstrate his innocence or guilt in the Watergate coverup. The Battle Creek Enquirer and News reported that of 447 readers responding to the question, those believing the President guilty of involvement in the coverup outnumbered those believing him innocent by nearly 4-to-1. Readers phoned in their responses to the question: "Do you believe the transcripts of White House tape recordings made public by President Nixon Tuesday demonstrate his innocence or his guilt in the Watergate coverup?"

DEARBORN (AP) Ford Motor Co.
