The plan is to register the foundation in the United States as a tax-free charity organization. Heads of the main Holy Land churches Catholic, Greek Orthodox and Protestant -have agreed to join its board, and a succession of visiting U.S. dignitaries has promised to help. At Least 19 Killed In Mine Explosion WEIRTON, W. Va.
(UPI) Nineteen workers were killed and at least eight others injured Friday following an explosion and fire that ripped through a new co*ke plant on an island in the middle of the Ohio River. Officials of the Weirton Steel which owns the plant, said the death toll could rise to as many as 20 persons. Most of the victims were burned beyond recognition. A 100-yard area of the plant was sealed off after the blast, of undetermined origin, ruptured a gas line leading from the plant to a co*ke facility. The plant was built by Koppers of Pittsburgh, for National Steel the parent firm.
It is located on Brown's Island in the middle of the Ohio River and across the river from Steubenville, Ohio. Ralph Cox, a Weirton spokesman, said there might be additional victims trapped under the rubble. "There is still gas in Cox said. "'The area is sealed off.

Mrs. Daniel, who had originally planned to leave for Washington to rejoin her family for Christmas, said she had postponed her trip for "a day or two."

Thomas Exchange Store. Pay Increase Continued from Page Al Last January, civilian government workers were granted a 5.5 per cent pay boost and military personnel a 7.2 per cent hike, costing a total of $2.2 billion. The military increase, which will come in the basic pay of all men and women in uniform, based on comparability of was salaries for civilian government workers. The larger percentage increase for military personnel does not mean they will receive more of a cash increase than federal civilian employes. Because the increase applies only to a serviceman's base pay -which is roughly 70 per cent of his total compensation it had to be a higher percentage to make the total military pay increase equal to that for civilian workers.
Both appeared to be within the 5.5 per cent guidelines the Pay Board set for wage increases during Phase II of Nixon's economic stabilization program. Nixon, in a message to Congress, said "the American of career civil service is system based on the principle of rewarding merit. As President, I have a special appreciation of the contribution that the service makes to the nation. And I am pledged to continue striving to make it an even more effective, responsive part of our government. One of achieving this is to way maintain a salary scale that is just and comparable to that received by equivalent individuals in the private sector." Elder J.
Briggs a Defending his decision not to order extra pay to make up for the 0 ct be postponement, Nixon said that result in paying federal employes more than their counterparts in private industry were earning.

S.
E. Morgart, Steubenville, was the only victim identified. The plant was regarded as the world's most advanced in terms of production and pollution abatement equipment. A Koppers spokesman in Pittsburgh said about 590 men were working throughout the island when the explosion occurred. "The first problem was the presence of gas in the area.
We to bathe the area in nitrogen to purge the the spokesman said. by police to move to another area. A city police spokesman said Kopec was later arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, refusing to move on police orders and resisting arrest. He was released on his own recognizance, authorities said. Mike Grim, a Richmond Times-Dispatch reporter, said he saw Kopec filming the accident when police told him to move.
Grim said Kopec stopped filming and moved to another location. Kopec was approached again by police, Grim said, and told to move.
