(AP) "Okies" have received minority stature in a new course offered at Sonoma State College near here.

Part of the course will include researching the his tory of the "Okies," literature, music and folklre. NEW YORK (AP) Treasury Secretary William E. Simon says Arab nations are mistaken if they believe their unrealistic oil prices have the United States in a "perilous, unbreakable hammerlock." Simon said the nation needs only to allow its economic system real freedom to avoid surrender "to a small band of blackmailers." In a speech Tuesday to the American Petroleum Institute, Simon said the answer to Arab oil pricing is energy conservation and increased domestic production.

"LET US HAVE a sound conservation program, but let us pursue it in tandem with an equally sound and vigorous program of greater energy production," Simon said. Forecasting an eventual lowering of petroleum prices, Simon said Arab nations cannot expect to remain aloof from the dangers of of social unrest and political instability their policies have created around the world. "I believe economic and political realities will even- down," he said. "Oil diplomacy is particularly delicate, and there may even be some further efforts to increase prices, but, over the long run, the question is no longer whether oil prices will come down but when they will come down." CHARLES E. Spahr, chairman of both the Institute and Standard Oil Co.

of Ohio, earlier told the oilmen they probably can expect Congress to enact punitive tax legislation against the industry. Waterloo police cars and cars from Evansdale joined in the chase.

County Attorney David Dut-ton, representing the complainant. Judge Carroll Engelkes, produced evidence at the hearing indicating that Bazan had been suspended from the practice of law by the Missouri Supreme Court in 1950 and had formally surrendered his license in 1952, 23 years after he had been admitted to the Missouri bar. Dutton also produced an application by Bazan for a position as judicial magistrate in Black Hawk County.

Dutton called as a witness Waterloo attorney John W. Rathert, who represented the defendant in one of the civil cases in which Bazan was involved. Rathert testified that Bazan had represented himself as the attorney for the plaintiff in the civil case, and said he was a practicing lawyer in the State of Missouri.

CHICAGO (AP) The president of the National Farmers Organization called on Congress Tuesday for a 2 billion authorization to buy uneconomical live meat and dairy products for distribution to starving foreign peoples, and urged members to stop killing calves. Referring to recent slaughter and burial in trenches of calves by farmers, Oren Lee Staley told a news conference: "The fair and equitable way to end this waste of food in the world where people are dying of starvation is for our government, using funds paid in by all of us, to buy up excess production at a fair price, process them and send them to the people in need." "Accordingly, NFO has called on its members and all livestock raisers and feeders to end the destruction of their uneconomical, excess animals until Congress has had an opportunity to authorize and direct the Commodity Credit Corp.

to spend $2 billion buying excess and uneconomical calves and "This will include pork and dairy products," Staley said. Staley said approval by Congress may mean a hike in prices of beef, pork and milk but added that at current prices, farmers "cannot continue to produce food we have taken for granted. ers fired under the continuing contract law "do not have a meaningful opportunity to present their case to a fair and impartial tribunal as required under the constitutional concept of procedural due process."
