Kissinger brought Israel new Syrian proposals Sunday for a military disengagement in the Golan Heights following a meeting in Damascus he said produced "some progress but no agreement." Leaving Damascus after a 4 '-4 -hour meeting with Syrian President Hafez Assad, Kissinger said he was taking back to Israel what he called "detailed Syrian considerations" on the compromise proposals which Israel put forward last week. A high-ranking American official aboard Kissinger's plane said the Syrian reaction was "very concrete'' and indicated it concerned the issue of where the cease fire line will be drawn. Two hours after his arrival in Israel, Kissinger met with Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir and her key ministers to report on his talks.

One of Kissinger's aides carried a case of maps. After Kissinger's meeting with Mrs. Meir, authoritative Israeli sources said the gaps between the Israeli and Syrian positions were as wide as before. The sources said Kissinger during the meeting dwelled on "the alternatives to disengagement," Interpreted to mean another full-scale war. United Nations, as well as a prisoner of war exchange will tend to fall into place.

Kissinger's shuttle to Damascus Sunday began the third and almost certainly the final week of his efforts to bring about the military separation of forces In the Golan Heights. Assad brought several officers into the meeting with Kissinger Sunday Minister of Defense Gen. Mistafa Tlas, Air Force Gen. Naji Jamil and military intelligence chief Gen. Hikmat O'hehabi.

Chchabi was present at Kissinger's last meeting but it was the first time for the others. In addition to the military men, Foreign Minister Abdel Halim Khaddem attended. American officials said Assad apparently was trying to build a consensus among his supporters. In his public statement in Damascus, Kissinger said, "We have passed from a general stage of considerations to a detailed and complete examination of all the elements of disengagement. "We made some progress but no agreement was reached.

I am leaving now for Israel carrying Syrian considerations and I expect to be back here Tuesday." After the meeting Israeli Information Minister Shimon Peres said Israel v.as not prepared to ease its terms for a settlement. "I don't think that any change is needed in Israel's basic attitude," he said. The high-ranking American official said there was nothing more Kissinger could do until he took "something back" to Damascus on Tuesday. He postponed his return until then to give both Syria and Israel more time for reflection. In effect, Syria appeared to have thrown the ball back to Israel.

Kissinger's words in a departure statement at Damascus indicated there had been no breakthrough toward immediate agreement on a military disengagement along the Golan Heights. The official aboard his plane said Kissinger still did not know whether he could pull it off this week. The official said Kissinger knows what concessions Israel and Syria must make to get an agreement, but he Is still not sure whether they can do it. The official said that once that is settled the other details of the agreement a buffer zone, a thinnlng-out of forces and a role for the 4M Savs Aide Of Attacks On Nixon i4 i 1 In other Developments: Bolstered in spirit by the eclio of cheers from the nation's midland, President Nixon spent a quiet, rainy day at the White House office. Mr.

Nixon canceled a trip to his mountaintop retreat at Camp David, because of the inclement weather. Teamsters Union President Frank E. Fltzsimmons said Sunday he remained a staunch supporter of President Nixon although his union membership is divided on the subject. "I think that Mr. Nixon is no different than any other individual," Fltzsimmons said.

"He should have his day in court, if it is necessary to have one, and at this moment I still support him." Fitzsimmons rejected a statement made Thursday by AFL-CIO President George Meany that the economy would be bolstered if Mr. Nixon left the White House. "I do not like to even think (of it) on the basis of a change In the economy of this country," he said. "I like to look at our country as it is. I don't think that George Meany or any other labor leader has any part to play" in a switch of presidents." AP Wirephoto Tornado Death Scene In Michigan From Enquirer Wires WASHINGTON President Nixon's special counsel said Sunday that the media has embarked on a "malicious, vicious attempt to poison the public mind against the President by any means" since the release of the Watergate transcripts.

J. Fred Buzhardt said there was nothing In the tape recordings themselves which he would consider ethnic slurs, and discounted reports that President Nixon referred to "Wops" and "Jewboys" In places where the term "expletive deleted" or "characterization deleted" appeared in the transcripts. Buzhardt said he had listened to most of the tapes of Mr. Nixon's conversations from which the transcripts were taken and "I have heard nothing that I would consider ethnic slurs." "And let me say this," he added, "for a number of days now, we have been literally besieged by rumors, that there were ethnic slurs In the tapes. Some language which I wouldn't think of repeating here or in private has been suggested as being on the tapes, and I find It Just totally unbelievable.

"There have been fabrications, there have been attempts to portray remarks that are on the tapes as racial slurs and they are not. "And I wonder, you know. It's clear that a concerted campaign has been made to cause these to be publicized. And that Is one of the problems that bothers many of us. Obviously this type of material is not relevant to the question of whether the President has committed treason, bribery or high crimes or misdemeanors.

I can only characterize this as malicious and vicious attempts to poison the public mind against the Presiden by any means." Buzhardt was interviewed on TV. The New York Times reported Sunday that Mr. Nixon referred to U.S. District Court Judge John Sirica as a "Wop" and made references to "Jewboys" on the Securities and Exchange Commission. Buzhardt denied both accusations, but added that he could not pinpoint the source of these reports.

Fred Buzhardt "there have been fabrications" Asked how the Teamsters rank-and-file feel about Mr. Nixon, Fltzsimmons replied that "They are the same as the rest of the American public." "There are divided opinions as far as our membership is concerned," he said.

But he added that almost all the members "want the man to have a fair shake and his side of the story to be told to maintain the well-being of this country." Fltzsimmons said he blamed some of the country's economic ills on "bad legislation" that originated in the Congress. Retiring Sen. Norris Cotton, said that President Nixon should not resign but should be impeached by the House of Representatives. "The scandal against the President has reached such proportions that he has been charged with some rather grave charges," he said.

High Cost Of Driving '74 Car Costs $15,893 By 84 Nixon Shouldn't Quit, Rusk Says, Decries Clamor $1618, $1960 for garaging, parking and tolls, and $1509 for taxes gas, oil, registrations. All costs were based on conditions in suburban Maryland, and were not national averages.

Over the 10-year period, the cars will wear out their original five tires and require 11 replacements. But if the owner of the standard-size car were to use radial tires he probably would need only five replacements, and would save gasoline, the Transportation Department said. On a per-mile cost, the owner of the standard-size car would pay 15.8 cents a mile to operate the car. A compact would cost 12.8 cents a mile, and a subcompact 11.1 cents a mile. According to the" booklet, 94 of the standard-size and compact cars are being sold with automatic transmissions, 90 have power steering and radios, and 85 of the standard-size cars have air conditioners.

But only 57 of the subcompacts have automatic transmissions, and only 27 have air conditioners. WASHINGTON (UPI)-The 10-year trip from the showroom to the Junkyard for a standard 1974 model car cost the owner $15,893, the government said Sunday. A compact car driven over the same average 10-year, period would cost the owner $12,875. But the lubcompact car owner would pay only $11,153.10.

said depreciation is "the greatest single cost of owning and operating a standard-size car, but for compacts and subcompacts, the total cost of gasoline has taken over "as the number one cost." For the standard-size car, the depreciated cost plus accessories was listed as $4258. Gasoline for the 10-year period came to $2026, maintenance cost $3521, insurance M.1H By RANDY ALLEN Enquirer Reporter Former Secretary of State Dean Rusk counseled President Nixon Sunday against resigning under current pressures. Rusk, in an Interview before delivering the commencement address at Northern Kentucky State College, suggested the proper way to remove a President would be by impeachment or election. The secretary of State under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson decried the "clamor and tumult" he attributed to the press and the public asking the President to resign because of the Watergate scandal. Rusk, however, defended the rights of the press and the public to criticize.

Now an international law professor at the University of Georgia, Rusk blamed the press for what he termed "McCartnyism by silence." The media, he added, has failed to point out that 99.9 of government officials are honest and decent while two dozen men smear them in reference to those officials under scrutiny In the Watergate case. On foreign policy, the veteran statesman gave Mr. Nixon "satisfactory. (and) very good" marks and said he generally was pleased with and supported most of the President's moves in international relations. Rusk said he would never accept another government position and added that his present life in Georgia "is an incredible relief from the pressures of decision making to the world of luxurious opinion." A five-part series on a possible Democratic presidential candidate for 1976, Ted Kennedy, begins today In The Enquirer.

Milton J. Shapp said Sunday a scheduled shutdown by independent truckers appeared unlikely after he was informed that a majority of trucks voted not to strike. SHAPP SAID THAT "fewer than 20 of the 300" independent truckers that met in Breezewood, voted to shutdown at midnight Sunday unless an extension was granted for renewing their licenses. The renewal deadline Is May 31. Shapp, said he would introduce legislation to allow the drivers another 60 days to renew their Associated Press Ohio truckers said Sunday they couldn't afford to join another protest shutdown over high fuel prices and lower speed limits.

But, said one driver, "We sure can't afford to keep funning either." 'The plight of the driver-owners in Ohio, a center of earlier protests, was typical of the situation among Independents elsewhere. Militants among the truckers have urged a strike at 12:01 a.m. today, but most drivers surveyed by The Associated Press said they Would ignore the strike call by Overdrive Magazine, one of the leaders of earlier shutdowns. "Absolutely no shutdown," said Jim Kirk of the Council of Independent Truckers, which claims a nationwide membership of 22,000 drivers. "The government is working on proposals we made in February.

We're not satisfied, but we know they're working." Some truckers said they didn't think anything would be accomplished; others said they were in sympathy with the shutdown but had not recovered financially from earlier work stoppages. The drivers pulled otr tne roacis twice during the winter, tying up traffic, blocking fuel stops and sparking scattered violence. They wanted more diesel fuel at lower prices, standardized trucking regulation and speed limits above the current 55 mph. Don Mulder of Lincoln, president of the Independent Truckers of Nebraska, said, "This is not the right time to strike." He said the independent driver-owners lacked communications to co-ordinate a national walkout. In Washington, D.C., spokesmen for the Department of Transportation said they did not expect any disruptions.

Frank Fltzsimmons, president of the Teamsters Union, which opposed the winter shutdowns, asked federal, state and local officials to make sure that truckers INDEX FOUR SECTIONS Action line 9 Horoscope 9 Bridge 60 Horse Sense 60 Business 56-57 Jumble 48 Classified 30-47 People 3 Columnists 5 Races 56 Comics 58 Society 21 Crossword 29 Sports 49-56 Dear Abby 20 TV-Radio 59 Deaths 30 VanDellen 26 Editorials 4 Weikel 17 Entertainment 14,15 Women's 20-26 Graham 8 Word Game 22 Scientists Find The World's Cooling Off NEW YORK (AP) Weather satellites sweeping across the sity. Their research did not determine the reason for tne Kennedy Scries Page 12 Local and Area News Pages 17,18,19 For the northeastern third of the country, Hare said, it was the coldest year on record, in many places coldest bya wide margaln. In many areas, he continued, there were as frjany as 19 consecutive months of below-normal temperatures. In the United States, the leading proponent of the changing climate theory is Reid A. Bryson, director of the Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin.

"The evidence is now abundantly clear," Bryson has said, "that the climate of the earth if changing, and is changing in a-direction that is not promising in terms of our ability to feed the world." The fear is that the climate changes are acting to push the subtropical deserts of North Africa and Asia southward toward the equator and to suppress the monsoons that provide needed water for agriculture. Northern Hemisphere have come up with a surprise: The permanent snow and ice cap has Increased sharply. The finding Is cited as one more Indication of what some cllmatologlsts believe to be a basic change In the world's climate, a cooling trend. trend could affect weather and rainfall patterns, perhaps impairing the world's ability to produce enough food for the expanding population, according to a number of authorities. A recently completed study of weekly maps of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration states that the snow and Ice increased by 12 in the Northern Hemisphere in 1971 and has remained at the new level.

The study was done by George and Helen Kukla of the Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory of Columbia Univer-. suuueu increase in ine permanent snow and ice cap. THE KUKLAS' STUDY arrived at the 12 figure by determining that snow and ice now is found year-round In the coastal mountains of British Columbia, and In various Asian ranges: the Himalayas, Tien-Shan, Hindu Kush. "The location and duration of snow and pack-ice fields constitute the most important seasonal variable In the earth's heat balance," the two scientists wrote In Science, Journal of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The Kukla report is cited by Dr.

F. Kenneth Hare of the University of Toronto, a leading cllmatologlst, who says the big Ice expansion preceded the coldest Canadian winter yet recorded. "In the winter of 1972," Hare said in an "temperatures were below normal for the entire year over the entire country. This never happened before."
