Middle East fighting widens with Israeli raids and Arab push
Cairo and Tel Aviv dispatches report combined air sea and land fighting on both sides of the Suez Canal. An Israeli spokesman said a large task force crossed to the east bank and struck antiaircraft batteries while Egyptian forces claimed to destroy several tanks and pursue others. Sadat warned of missiles against Israel but sought a cease-fire with conditions. Meir stated no cease-fire offer had been received as fierce battles continued in Sinai and the Golan Heights amid reports of Syrian and Iraqi advances and Uganda's Idi Amin offering troops to aid Syria and Egypt.

Love warns oil supply could drop 10 percent if Arab output stalls
White House energy policy director John A. Love told the National Press Club that a complete Arab oil shutdown could cut U S supplies by about ten percent. He noted Europe and Japan would suffer more, as their oil reliance from Middle East and North Africa is high, and warned the shortage could worsen before improving. He opposed end use rationing and any bureaucratic limits on personal car use while suggesting private cars and recreational vehicles would be lowest priority. State Department spokesman McCloskey said no official Saudi or other Arab oil cut has been received.

Sex film unit gets tax break in California vote
SACRAMENTO The California Board of Equalization voted 2-1 in favor of a property tax exemption for a religious organization that produces sex films. The advisory decision could be reversed by the San Francisco County tax assessor. The Genesis Church and Ecumenical Center of San Francisco argued the exemption supports religious and educational offerings to the public through several church programs.
