(AP)--"'Boy, this place is like an oven!"' Mrs, Richard D, McCor- mick said Thursday that she returned home after a week's vacation with her two chil- dren and found her house baked to a turn. Mrs. McCormick blamed a faulty shut-off furnace valve for raising the temperature to 200 degrees for seven days, practically cooking every item in the home. Her hus- band was away with a golf team. The heat loosened glue in inflation and the 10-per-cent in- come tax cut announced in Mon- |day's budget would add to the | danger. | He called for tax concessions |to 'family firms" earning up to | $100,000 annually and to export- jers, More co-ordination was [needed between the federal and iprovincial governments and various departments to develop trade.

News of the battle coincided with a Washington announce- ment that two battalions of U.S. paratroopers were flown in to the San Isidro Air Base just out- side this capital city today. REINFORCE MARINES The complement of about 2,500 men from the 82nd Air- borne Division were flown to the Caribbean island to rein- force the some 1,550 marines al- ready landed.
