Marie Krieg, 64, 705 Fourth Mosinee, died at Corrected copy SPORTS It was incorrectly reported in Wednesday's Daily Herald that the Wausau West High School girls doubles tennis team of Dina Rasmussen and Connie Knapp lost a first-round match to a team from Stevens Point.

Rasmussen and Knapp won that match, defeating Point's Kim Walhood and Beth Wimme-6-4, 6-1. The West team later lost to the Wisconsin Rapids doubles team of Cheryl Jagodzinsky and Laura Meeks 6-3, 2-6, 6-3. It also was earlier reported Wausau West had defeated Wausau East 5-4 in a dual meet last week. That final score has since been changed to 6-3, due to an ineligible player for Wausau East at No. 3 singles.

CHANGED NAME Ruth and Gary Koch, 320 N. Seventh Wausau, are the parents of a son, Daniel Richard, born at Wausau Hospital Center Wednesday. The family changed Daniel's name after it was reported to the Herald. Wis. -Thursday, October 1, 1981 Congress votes itself tax breaks, pay hikes By CLIFF HAAS Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) Congress, stopping the clock on the new fiscal year, granted itself virtually automatic pay raises liberalized tax breaks today as part of an emergency spending bill.

Final action, however, came too late to keep the government from technically running out of money. The lapse, even if lasts no more than a few hours, also apparently will mean an unintended pay raise for federal judges. The Senate completed congressional action on the measure with clocks in the chamber stopped at 11:50 p.m. Wednesday, a legislative maneuver invoked by Majority Leader Howard H. Baker because "the whole government of the United States stops functioning if we don't pass this bill." Theoretically, it didn't work.

Passage actually came about 30 minutes into the 1982 fiscal year, which began at midnight. That was too late for President Reagan, whose signature was required to make the bill law and the government legitimate. White House spokesman David Prosperi 18 vetoes null and void: La Follette MADISON, Wis. (AP) Eighteen of Gov. Lee Dreyfus' item vetoes of the state budget bill are null and void, Attorney General Bronson La Follette said today.

La Follette said Dreyfus did not state his reasons for vetoing the budget items, which include a provision directing the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to establish rules regulating the home insulation industry. In an opinion to Assembly. Speaker Edward Jackamonis, D-Waukesha, La Follette cited a 1978 state Supreme Court decision that said governor's must explain their vetoes "with sufficient completeness that the Legislature knows the nature and scope of the governor's Dreyfus did not mention the home insulation rules in his veto message. He said Dreyfus' attempt to submit an amended veto message was ineffective because the bill was out of his hands and the constitutional deadline for acting on legislation had expired. Office open for hunters The Marathon County Clerk's office will be open until 9 p.m.

said Reagan had agreed to wait until midnight and, that deadline missed, was expected to sign the measure around breakfast-time today. The effect of the delay was certain to be minimal, if noticeable at all. The stopgap legislation funds federal agencies and departments through Nov. 20, when Congress hopes to complete action on permanent appropriations bills. It also repeals the limit on the tax deductions members of Congress may claim for living expenses in Washington, ties future congressional pay raises to increases granted white-collar federal workers and allows senators to earn unlimited income from outside speaking engagements.

The Senate passed the measure 64-28 after approving the congressional pay raise and tax provisions on separate 48-44 votes. The House approved it by voice vote earlier as Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill brushed aside moves for on-the-record roll calls. A proposal for an immediate 4.8 percent pay increase for legislators was rejected earlier by House and Senate negotiators, along with a Senatepassed provision that would have granted pay raises to several thousand federal workers whose salaries have been capped for four years. Congressional officials said federal judges would receive a pay raise because a cap on judicial salaries expired automatically with the beginning of the new fiscal year and courts have ruled previously that action to reimpose the ceiling is unconstitutional.

Pay for district court judges would rise from $67,100 to $70,300. The eight Supreme Court associate justices would go from $88,700 to $93,000, and Chief Justice Warren Burger would qualify for an increase from $92,400 to $96,800. The compromises on financial benefits for members of Congress called for: Repealing the $3,000 limit on the tax deduction for living expenses in Washington, estimated by Congress' Joint Committee on Taxation to cost the Treasury $3 million a year and provide an average deduction of $13,500 for 535 representatives and senators. Lifting the $25,000 limit on outside earned income that senators may collect in a year. House members would continue to be restricted to 15 percent of their salary, Cuts kill poverty agency WASHINGTON (AP) The Community Services Administration, which once directed the nation's war on poverty, died today.

At age 17, it had been in ill fiscal health for years, never quite recuperating from the dismembering it took from the Nixon administration in 1973. Death came at midnight, the result of budget cutbacks from a federal government intent on transferring many of the agency's functions to the state and local level. It was the first major federal agency to die since World War II. But it may not be the last. President Reagan has served notice he will attempt to kill off the departments of Energy and Education, both given life by the previous Carter administration.

Termination of the agency almost passed unnoticed. Its closing orders were part of the budget bill passed by Congress last summer at Reagan's insistence. Although once the centerpiece of Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society war on poverty, the agency had played a lesser role in recent years. It provided money for the energy conservation and weatherization program for the poor, development funds for industrial parks, some funds to combat Lower priced homes felt tax bite most (From Page 1) By 1976, owners of the former $10,000 houses were paying about $480 in property taxes up about 31 percent.

But the taxes on the houses that had been at $20,000 before the reassessment now were about $756 an increase of only about 4 percent. And taxes on former $30,000 houses were at $1,150 up about 13 percent. So by 1981, the owner of 1971's $10,000 house was paying about $652 in gross property taxes, or nearly 78 percent more than a decade earlier. Taxes on the former $20,000 house were at $1,024, up almost 40 percent. And those on the former $30,000 house were $1,558, up about 42 percent.

Why the discrepancy? It's a matter of housing market economics, according to Tom Kienbaum, deputy city assessor. More Wausau people could afford a $10,000 house in 1971 than a $20,000 house, or a $30,000 one. There were more people bidding up prices on the lower scale homes than the expensive ones. As the market made the value of $10,000 houses rise faster than $20,000 or $30,000 houses, their assessed value followed along. And so did taxes.

During the last half of the decade, there hasn't been such a big disparity in the increase in value between homes on the low end of the scale and those at the top, Kienbaum said. What's a $10,000 house of 1971 worth on the market today? If the assessment ratios are in sync like they should be, it would sell for about $32,000 to $34,000. A $20,000 house would go for about $50,000 to $52,000. And the former $30,000 house would cost about $70,000 to $72,000. That's the difference a decade makes.

Beginning in a year, granting congressional pay raises equal to those recommended annually by presidential commission for white federal workers. Congress still could reject the raise, but Rep. Vic Fazio, said the plan would provide "automatic appropriations" for congressional pay raises once they were recommended.

Members of Congress now earn $60,662.50 a year. Dropping a Senate plan to lift the existing pay ceiling for an estimated 46,000 federal workers from $50,112 $57,500. That happened after House negotiators insisted that members of Congress get a 4.8 percent increase as part of the provision and Senate committee members rejected the proposal, 10-5. Earlier, the negotiators agreed to spend $125 million to help operate a Middle East peacekeeping force in the Sinai Desert but barred stationing any American troops there without prior approval of Congress. The final package also raised the pay of the Senate chaplain, the Rev.

Richard C. Halverson, from $40,000 to $52,750, the same as the House chaplain. New fiscal year brings cutbacks (From Page 1) And that may be just the start. Congress and Reagan, searching for billions of dollars more to balance the federal budget by 1984, are considering further cuts whose cost and impact cannot yet be predicted accurately. Many government agencies are revamping their programs on the assumption that there will be less money to spend.

There will be fewer government fellowships for painters and sculptors, and grants for biomedical research will decline. The government has reversed a ruling that mass transit systems must gradually rebuild their buses and subways to accommodate the handicapped, and it may abandon a proposal that all new large automobiles be equipped with automatic seatbelts or protective airbags. The Consumer Product Safety Commission will have fewer regional centers open to handle citizens' complaints, and is halting its study of hazardous lawn mowers, light fixtures and playground equipment for toddlers. The Community Services Administration, which once directed the war on poverty, went out of business altogether today. The Energy Department, which Reagan wants to abolish along with the Education Department, has targeted 200 of its nearly 300 regulations for modification or repeal.

Dairy prices subsidies jump (from Page 1) hunger and malnutrition among the poor and helped finance state economic opportunity offices to assist governors. Budget adjustment bill introduced MADISON, Wis. (AP) Republican Gov. Lee Dreyfus' proposed state budget adjustment bill was introduced Wednesday by the Legislature's Democratic-controlled Joint Finance Committee. The panel met shortly before legislators gathered in both houses to begin the one-month fall session.

The panel voted 12-2 to send the measure to the Assembly. It is expected to be set for committee hearing in two weeks, Norquist said. A key feature of the measure proposes that local aid payments this fall be juggled to keep 370 communities from losing more than 8 percent in revenue sharing payments. The proposal essentially borrows money from municipalities which would gain aid and lends it communities who would lose aid. Aid borrowed this year would be repaid in 1982, and communities getting "loans" would be required to reimburse the If you don't receive your DAILY HERALD Call only at these times: WAUSAU Ph.

Even though the new farm bill is expected to return dairy supports to the old level, its failure to clear Congress triggered an earlier law requiring dairy subsidies to be increased. An attempt to use preferential procedures to block the increase was stalled in the House late Wednesday by Democratic Reps. Robert Kastenmeier and David Obey from Wisconsin, a leading milk-producer.

They argued that dairy farmers deserve at least some increase, even if it is temporary, since supports have not been adjusted for a year. It was much the same argument that Sen. William Proxmire, used to justify stalling the effort a week earlier. The increase pushed price supports from $13.10 a hundred pounds to about $13.49, the equivalent of 75 percent of parity, and will cost the government up to $10 million a week more than it would otherwise have to pay to support dairy prices. The higher subsidies represent the first setback on the dairy front for Reagan since he launched his campaign for cuts in supports.

One way that our culture has devised to help us overcome our disbelief is the funeral, wake, or visitation. Seeing our deceased loved one, we begin to understand that life has changed, that the person is gone. We come home to an empty house, we set one less place at the table, we no longer have friends to enjoy. These are painful and slow reminders that our loved one is gone. By going to the visitation and by calling on survivors, even after the funeral helps to lessen the pain.
