a Reagan Defends Economic Program To Conservatives WASHINGTON (AP) President Reagan acknowledged on Friday night that he isn't sure where his economic program will lead, but he insisted again it is better than following the course of his predecessors. speech to about 1,200 ard.ca conservatives of the American Conservative Union and Young Americans for Freedom, Reagan diverged from his text to explain why he is determined to stick to his economic course despite pressures, even from some loyalists, to raise taxes or cut defense spending. Repeating a story he said he had heard during dinner from Rep. Mickey Edwards, the president said, "If you are sliding downhill on a snowy hill, and you know there's a cliff down there ahead of you at the bottom. and suddenly there's a road that turns off to the right you don't know where that road to the right goes, but you take it.

You know where that other one goes." are standing by our program," Reagan said. "We will not turn back or sound retreat." Some of those in attendance at the $100-a-plate dinner have complained that Reagan has abandoned the social issues dear to their hearts, such as anti-abortion crusade and the fight for prayers in schools. Reagan only mentioned those issues in passing in his speech. But the president was interrupted by applause nearly two dozen times as he chided those who have doubted their faith in the face of recession and rising deficits. "We have proposed budget cuts for 1983, and our proposals have met with cries of anguish," Reagan said.

"And. those who utter those cries equally anguished because there will be a budget deficit. Well, they are a little like a dog sitting on a sharp rock howling with pain when all he has to do is get up and move." president called those who challenge his budget cuts attack on the poor "sob sisters," and said some of his critics are "those who have a vested interest in a permanent welfare constituency and in government programs that reinforce the dependency of our people." have already come a long way Reagan told the conservatives, who were among his earliest and staunchest supporters before his election. And he urged them to "join me in a new effort, a new crusade." "We will press for further cuts in federal spending," he pledged. "We will protect the tax reductions already passed; we will spend on defense what is necessary for our national security.

I have no intention of leading the Republican Party into next fall's election on a platform of higher taxes and cut-rate defense. our opponents want to go to the American people next fall and say: "We're the party that refused to cut spending: we're the party ed to take away your tax cuts; we're the party that wanted bargain basement military and held a fire sale on national security, let's give 'em all the running room they want."

That's their Boys' Deaths Ruled Accident Waukesha County Coroner Donald J.

Eggum has reiterated his belief that the deaths of three boys found in the closet of a vacant apartment last July were accidential. Eggum told relatives of the three boys that the youngsters had not been murdered. "We have ruled this an accidental death, and that's what it was," he told relatives of Benjamin McDonald, 11; Timothy Eman, 7, and Eddy Saycocie, 4. Norbert Kurczewski, a private investigator hired by Frederick Eman, of Plymouth, last July 18 to investigate the death of his son and the boy's playmates, said last November that he had found two witnesses who said they saw boys with a man the day they disappeared. Eggum told Kurczewski, who also attended the meeting, that it was not the coroner's job to comment on possible witnesses and told him it was a matter for the police to pursue.

"Martial law creates indispensible conditions for The 460-member Sejm is in principle Poland's government authority, but has always enacted policies of the Communist Party, which has ruled the country since the end of World War II. The party's policy-making Central Committee, once noted for stormy clashes between reform- minded delegates and hard-liners, spoke with a. unified, orthodox Communist voice Thursday in approving its resolution supporting martial law.

These decisions were undertaken in the name of the most vital interests of the working class and the nation in the face of a threat to the fundamentals of an independent existence of the socialist Polish state," said the resolution, which was released Friday by the official PAP news agency. The 200-member committee, elected in an unprecedent secret ballot at a party congress last July, also ousted two delegates, one of them a Solidarity unionist who refused to renounce his union membership. Since Jan Malanowski was the only one of more than 40 committee members belonging to Solidarity who was ousted, it appeared the other delegates had quit the union. Solidarity, formed in August 1980, reportedly had 9.5 million members before the crackdown and the Communist Party had 3 million. The committee also moved to strengthen the hand of Jaruzelski the party chief, premier, defense minister and head of the ruling military council by naming Gen.

(AP) A circuit court judge's ruling that struck down an 11- linois law requiring water fluoridation will be appealed, state officials say. by this," said hard W. not exactly, pleased Cosby, first assistant Illinois attorney general. He said Friday the attorney general's office will appeal Judge Ronald Niemann's decision, which says the fluoridation law amounts to "an unreasonable exercise, violates of police power" the state Constitution. Niemann told state officials to stop enforcing the statute, which requires fluoridation of public drinking water, and ordered the Alton water company to halt fluoridation.

The ruling came in a 14- year-old local case against the city of Alton. Cosby and Mary Huck, a spokeswoman for state's Public Health Department, said Unidentified Gives Two NEW YORK (AP) An unidentified donor whose blood infected two babies with malaria has carried a dormant form of the disease for years, doctors in Boston say. Last week, a newborn child came down with malaria after receiving a blood transfusion. On Friday, the doctors said a second baby had contracted the disease. The two babies have been treated and are suffering no ill effects, according to Dr.

Lawrence Wolfe, assistant director of the Children's Hospital blood bank in Boston. Three babies received blood from the donor, but the third baby does not appear to have contracted the disease, doctors said Friday. They said they are trying to decide whether that baby should be given anti-malaria drugs to prevent the disease from developing. Tests in Boston did not detect the malaria in the donor's blood, but a sample of it immediately was flown to the national Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta. On Friday, the CDC, using a more sensitive malaria test than those done in Boston, confirmed the donor did have the ruling was the first of its kind in the state.

Cosby said his office also would go to court Monday to seek a delay in enforcement of the judge's order. Cosby said the decision might apply statewide. The judge said it did. But Cosby noted the attorney general's office has not had to go to court recently to force any communities to comply with the law and predicted the ruling probably would have no immediate effect outside Alton. "We don't expect the city of Chicago, for instance, to stop fluoridating its water tomorrow." Cosby said.

Niemann's ruling, dated Wednesday, was not filed in circuit court in Edwardsville until Friday. The decision came years after a trial before Niemann on a lawsuit filed against the state. and Alton's water company by fluoridation opponents. The fluoridation law. Niemann said, violates the due process section of the 11- linois Constitution.

"In view of the plaintiffs' evidence, even though it has long been recognized that artificial fluoridation of public water supplies helps fight tooth decay, a risk exists of serious health hazards." Niemann wrote. He said there was insufficient evidence to support the state's claim that fluoridation is a safe means of promoting dental health. "'The court is not satisfied that the state has taken a hard enough look at the longterm effects on humans of artificial fluoride when added to the public water supply," the judge said. The suit challenging the state's 1967 fluoridation law was filed in 1968 by the Illinois Pure Water Committee, based in Alton Donor's Blood Babies Malaria med well, space agency officials said.

The compartmentalized external tank was drained of the liquified hydrogen and oxygen, which were pumped in under pressure for Friday's test. The tank was being purged of any residue today. Astronauts Jack Lousma and Gordon Fullerton did not participate in Friday's exercise, but the upcoming voyage was on their minds. At a news conference at Johnson Space Center in Houston, flight commander Lousma said, not just another ride." "It's a very ambitious and challenging flight plan.

We will have more things to do for a two-man crew than any of the flights for a while," he said. The two joked that they plan to carry a fly-swatter aboard because of an experiment to learn the weightless flying characteristics of moths and honeybees. The test is among almost a dozen planned scientific experiments. Lousma said the astronauts would be occupied with further verification of Colum- From Page 1.

Nonetheless, the government reported Friday that a $1.8 billion increase in the nation's oil-import bill pushed the U.S. trade deficit in January to $5.13 billion. Meanwhile, New York state Superintendent of Banking Muriel A. Siebert reported Friday that 97 of 99 statechartered savings banks lost money in 1981, largely because they had to pay more for money than they could charge on loans. Of the 443 mutual savings banks in the United States, those in New York hold about one-half of the industry's total assets.

Nationwide, about twothirds of the members of the National Association of Mutual Savings Banks operated in the red last year, said George Hanc, the trade group's chief economist. Also Friday, in the nation's money markets, interest rates rose as the Federal Reserve Board reported a $1.2 billion increase in the basic money supply. The Federal Reserve has sought to hold down the growth of money as a way of curbing inflation. The latest increase in money readily available for spending by the public raised concerns that the Federal Reserve would tighten its grip on the amount of credit available in the banking system.

The arm will be used later to deploy and retrieve satellites. If the spacecraft's March mission is successful, only one more test flight remains, in July. The first operational mission is set for November, with two communications satellites as Columbia's first commercial cargo. A second shuttle, the Challenger, is to begin commercial flights next January. Fullerton said looking forward to his first space flight, calling it, "the ultimate experience for a test pilot." Lousma spent a then-record 59 days in orbit aboard the Skylab space station in 1973.

In Friday's exercise, the fuel tank was filled with about 141,000 gallons of liquid oxygen. About 383,000 gallons of liquid hydrogen was then pumped into another compartment in the tank. The propellants are loaded under pressure at an extremely cold temperature to keep them liquid. The silo-like tank has the 122-foot orbiter strapped to its back. The external tank feeds Columbia's three main engines through the first few minutes of ascent.

The donor was born in a malaria- infested area, and had been carrying a dormant form of the disease, Wolfe said. Donors are routinely asked about exposure to malaria before they give blood, but they cannot all be tested for malaria because the test is too time-consuming and expensive. The donor had not been in a region infested wth malaria for years, so his blood was accepted, Wolfe said.

The donor, whose name was not released, carried a mild form of malaria that can remain inactive for long periods of time, and he apparently was unaware he had the disease, doctors explained. In the case reported last week, a baby boy named Stephen McDonald had developed malaria. At that time, doctors were reasonably certain the malaria was caused by a blood transfusion because that is virtually the only way to get the disease in this country. But they could not be sure until they found a blood donor with malaria.

Authorities said the 1977 Toyota pickup truck that Gohr was driving had been reported as stolen from Maricopa County, Ariz.

No further information was available concerning the theft of the truck, but authorities said Lenard would be questioned in regard to the vehicle theft. The accident happened about 5:30 p.m. Thursday on Interstate 40, in the eastbound lane. Authorities said driver lost control of the truck which overturned times after he brought it back onto the highway. Both occupants of the vehicle were ejected onto the highway.

Funeral service arrangements for Gohr are pending at Ballhorn Funeral Chapels and will be announced Monday. A spokesman for the funeral home noted that Gohr was returning to Sheboygan from California when the accident occurred. Richer Families Gain Most From Tax Cuts WASHINGTON (AP) A Congressional Budget Office analysis released today said about 85 percent of estimated tax savings in 1983 under President Reagan's economic program would benefit American households with annual incomes over $20,000. The analysis also concluded that households with incomes below $20,000 would have to absorb about two-thirds of $17 billion worth of cuts in federal social programs expected next year. Overall, Reagan's economic program will mean a net loss averaging $240 for households with income of less than 000 in 1983, compared with a net gain averaging $15,130 for the 1.2 percent of U.S.

households that have incomes of $80,000 or more, the study said.

Early this week, the second case of malaria was discovered, and doctors found that both babies received blood from the same donor. Doctors at the Children's Hospital blood bank immediately obtained a blood sample from the donor. Wolfe said the exercise of finding the donor demonstrated effectiveness of the hospital's record-keeping system in resolving such problems. "The paper work was done right the donor found," Wolfe told The Associated Press by telephone from Boston.
