(UPI) A small army of grim townspeople and National Guardsmen pulled more bodies Sunday from the muddy ruins of the Rapid City flood and the death count in the disaster went past 200. Coroner George Behrens said there were 208 persons known dead treatment of burns and other injuries.

There were many stories of heroics. Barnette said he notified police when he got a call about 7 p.m. (EDT) Friday that the west wall of the Mountain View Nursing Home had collapsed. "Policeman John Roche f.nd a couple of volunteers somehow got through and were able to evacuate about 75 elderly persons, saving many lives," he said. Three persons at the home died.

(EDT) Friday night. For the next five hours, electricity went off and ruptured gas mains and tanks triggered explosions and fires that sent hundreds to hospitals for RESCUERS SAID they were re-covering bodies all along the course of Rapid Creek, which turned into a raging inferno Friday night. Thousands were homeless. Damage was estimated at $100 million. An estimated 2000 cars were swept away and left in heaps of twisted metal.

Three hundred houses were ripped from their foundations and deposited where the raging water receded. The area of the city that roughly parallels Rapid Creek was devastated. Officials said a whole subdivision will have to be rebuilt and a trailer court of 200 mobile homes was washed away. The searchers asked for aid from specially trained Army dogs, flown in from St. Louis, by scuba divers.

LITTLE WAS KNOWN of the thousands of vacationers and campers usually in the hills nearby at this time of year and officials had difficulty in knowing how to contact them. The fate of several small communities in the hills where the only access was by helicopter, was not yet clear. Newsmen who flew over one of them, Keystone, reported it was virtually wiped out. Thousands in Rapid City were being sheltered and fed by more fortunate neighbors and in Red Cross facilities. The city was hit by a four-foot wall of water after the earthen Canyon Lake Dam gave way under the weight of water from up to 12 inches of rain pouring out of the canyons of the Black Hills.

The dam, in a residential area of Rapid City's West Side, was built as a WPA project in the 30s. It impounded the waters of Rapid On Page 8: Wiped out newcomers vow to stay. What happened. Aerial view of devastation. in the torrents which rushed from a ruptured dam Friday night and Saturday and carved a path of utter destruction through Rapid City and surrounding areas.

DON BARNETTE, Rapid City's 29-year-old mayor, said, "I would estimate a combined death toll of 300 for the whole tragedy." Gov. Richard Kneip said, "we have in excess of 200 deaths and there's a long way to go yet. It's believed many bodies are below the mud and the mire. That part is bad." Aid poured into this devastated resort city. The Agriculture Department announced in Washington that the flood area was eligible for emergency free food stamps.

Representatives of almost every federal agency that could be involved met to make recovery and assistance plans. Civil Defense authorities feared "many, many more" victims would be found. Before dawn, it was estimated that 1500 persons were unaccounted for or unable to be contacted, but later Sunday officials said they could not make an accurate estimate of the number of missing. U.

Jets Wreck Power Station Flr fcsd 'ySwf i 3 Ifs Doomsday If This Thing Works By WILLIAM RASPBERRY (c) The Washington Post WASHINGTON Some people In Springfield, have developed a doomsday machine that could mean the end of capitalism, the American family, the jury system and maybe the world at least this world as we know now. I'm talking about Dektor Counterintelligence and Security, and the machine they call a "Psychological Stress Evaluator" (PSE). What it is, is a new kind of lie-detector that works by analyzing a speaker's voice. Even over television. The suspected liar needn't even know he's being checked.

YOU DON'T exactly have to be a genius to figure out the Implications for some of our most cherished traditions. Take a thing like the California primaries, now mercifully over. Suppose the voters had had their own psychological stress evalua-tors djring the campaigns, and particularly during the television debates. Every candidate lies. Some get caught right away and they lose.

Some, the winners, don't get caught until after the campaign is over, and then it doesn't matter much until the next election. But suppose the voters knew, immediately and irrefutably, when a candidate was lying. You would have voters stuck with choosing among proven liars, which means they might not bother to vote at all. Or you would have the candidates stuck with telling the truth, which means most of them couldn't campaign at all. Put PSEs in the hands of ordinary folk, and elective politics would be a thing of the past.

So, of course, would the family. Even Dear Abby knows that when it comes to marriage, truth is a greatly overrated commodity. There are some questions that husbands and wives ought not ask each other in the first place. But when they are asked, sometimes a lie is the only rational answer. It's one thing to know "in your heart" that your mate is lying; it's another to have it in black and white, or whatever color the PSE happens to be.

Silence is no solution, since that will certainly be interpreted in the worse possible light. The free enterprise system would vanish from the face of the earth if the PSE branded as outright lies all the claims made for new cars, breakfast cereals, antiperspirant deodorants, and vegetable slicers. Alan D. Bell Jr. who is president of Dektor, admitted to a reporter that his device could trigger "an overwhelming furor" as some of its potential uses became clear testing the veracity of government officials, for example.

Furor nothing: It could be positively devastating. ACCORDING TO BELL, whose company has gained some fame as developers of electronic bugging and antibugging devices, the PSE has one overwhelming advantage over the polygraph: You don't have to hook it up to the suspected liar; the suspect doesn't have to know he's suspected. Dektor says it tested the PSE by monitoring 25 segments of "To Tell the Truth." It picked the right person 94.7 of the time, which is both phenomenal and frightening. More frightening still, it has been used in at least four Ellicott City, trials, according to the New York Times. It works, according to Bell, by measuring the inaudible frequency modulations of the voice that are present (along with the audible frequencies) under normal circumstances but disappear under stress.

Lying produces stress. Bell says an operator has only to learn how to tell whether the stress is due to lying or to other pressures. I don't understand any of this, but I don't doubt that It works or that it is a bad thing. The question isn't simply one of efficiency (that 94.7 on "To Tell the Truth" means that the machine goofed 5.3 of the time, which is fine for a TV show but potentially disastrous for a man on trial for his life) if they made it 100 accurate, it might frighten me even more. As long as there's any doubt as to the PSE's accuracy, it can be taken as something of a joke.

Perfect it, and Allan D. Bell Jr. will go down in history as the man who invented Big Brother. a U. S.

adviser was killed in an enemy shelling attack around An Loc and two other Americans were wounded in a mortar attack near Da Nang. Air Force officers said 2000-pound bombs guided by laser beams were used against the Lang Chi plant, 63 miles northwest of Hanoi, to insure that the dam, 300 feet away, would be spared. Informants said the attack on the plant was approved by Washington but the dam was declared off limits. The surprise strike, carried out by fewer than 10 Air Force F4 Phantoms, marked the first attack against hydroelectric power plants since the United States started the bombing of North Vietnam in 1965, the U. S.

command said. The plant supplied considerable electricity to the Hanoi-Haiphong area, one officer added. -AP Wirephoto President Joseph Belrne, said that "the leadership of both unions must seize upon this opportunity to ensure that we do not become pawns in what others might call progress." The recent move to defederalize the American postal system and the trend toward Industrial conglomerates "both warn us that we must be prepared and able to display and utilize our strength to Its maximum effectiveness," the leadership said. When Mother Goes To Work When the children get old enough to tale care of themselves, many mothers feel the need to find a job for financial or other reasons. Some who have gone through this transition from stay-at-home wife and mother to working woman tell their stories in a new series "When Mom Goes Back To Work," by Sandra Pessman.

The five-part series will also discuss the job market, the dangers of the new lifestyle, what to do with the "new" money, and how to get ready to go back to work. Mothers and fathers, too, will find the series interesting reading.

against Hanoi's hydroelectric installation. The strikes were aimed at the strategic Red River Valley. More special air raids were carried out Sunday by Air Force fighter-bombers against scores of railroad cars isolated by cuts along North Vietnam's northeast and northwest rail lines to China, informants disclosed. The sources described the raids as "successful." They were the first strikes reported against cars themselves since the resumption of bombing April 6. The informants estimated that as many as 600 railroad cars trying to move south from China with war materials were strung out along the network, severed by weeks of U.S.

air strikes. Most were reported on sidings. Earlier, Air Force F4 Phantoms cut the Lang Dang railroad bridge and the Tam Dan highway bridge along the northeast rail line about 60 miles above Hanoi, spokesmen A broadcast dispatch of Hanoi's official Vietnam News Agency said three U. S. aircraft were shot down and several pilots captured Sunday.

ON THE GROUND in the South, "Our narcotics antagonists are going to be available within a matter of months," Jaffe said. "We are going to have medicines equivalent to immunizing agents. They are not narcotics themselves. They prevent people from feeling the effect of narcotics. "We have been pushing on that literally handcarrylng drugs from the manufacturers to the experimenter and back again.

We think by September we will have a no-slde-effect narcotic antagonist that you can give to somebody like you give quinine to a soldier in a malarisi A SPOKESMAN for the special action office said Dr. Jaffe's testimony should not be taken to mean that by September the new drug would be in full production and ready for general distribution. He said the director was referring to one of a number of "antagonists" that have been in experimental use and that, he meant it should have been tested and proven by that target date. JJ. S.

First step toward the merger will be taken at the AFL-CIO Communications Workers of America's 34th annual convention which opens here today. The 2000 delegates will -be asked to approve a resolution authorizing CWA officers to work out terms for a formal merger agreement with the AFL-CIO American Postal Workers Union. The CWA has 550,000 members and the APWU has more than 300.

000 members. The latter consists almost entirely of post office employees. Approval is expected both by the CWA delegates this week and by the postal workers at their national convention In August. The merger will not only strengthen both unions in their dealings with management, the merger resolution says, but unification is also needed because of "our rapidly changing technology." "Today's technology shows us that there are differences in the methods of transmitting, handling and receiving messages, but these differences will soon be a thing of the past," the resolution says. Post offices, the CWA officials noted, are already transmitting communications which originate orally, are transmitted electronically and finally delivered in written form.

Western Union, the union said, ther the "antagonist" drugs nor the controversial heroin substitute methadone, nor any other single treatment or method, could be viewed as "the answer" to the drug abuse problem. "There is no one answer," he said. However, he expressed optimism about the possible use of which other agancy sources said would be considered especially helpful in avoiding addiction among youths still experimenting with drugs. WASHINGTON (UPI) Government drug fighters hope to have ready for use in September a narcotics "antagonist" that will block heroin highs and discourage addiction, according to congressional testimony published Sunday. "Take a pill a day and you can't get strung out," said Dr.

Jerome II. Jaffe in explaining to a House Appropriations subcommittee how the medication works. Jaffe, director of the Special Action Office for Drug Abuse Prevention, testified April 19 in support of his agency's request for $6.8 million for use in the 12 months starting July 1. HE SAID development of non-addictive "antagonist" drugs was the agency's No. 2 priority goal, second only to provision of treatment of some kind for every addict who wants it.

Next on the priority list is development of an easily used early detection system for identification of users.
