A Message From Unesco
Date: 05 December 1982
By Henry Giniger, Milt Freudenheim and Carlyle C Douglas
Henry Giniger
On paper at least, there will still be room for free-wheeling reporters to audit governments in the ''new world information order'' that was endorsed last week by Unesco. But the United States and other Western democracies were unable to stop the 158-nation organization from asserting its concerns about news - ''messages and what they say'' - in a program to help developing countries lessen their dependence on outsiders' reports.

UNESCO AGREES ON ITS PLAN FOR FUTURE
Date: 04 December 1982
By Henry Tanner, Special To the New York Times

Delegates from 158 member nations of Unesco wound up a two-week special conference here tonight by adopting a plan for the organization's future activities that included a divisive chapter on information and mass communications and another on collective rights as distinct from human rights. Agreement on the final resolutions for 13 programs - including activities in science, education, culture and development - was by consensus, without a vote. In their closing statements, delegations from the industrial nations and the third world, after clashing frequently during the debate, all voiced reservations about some aspects of the plan, as did the Soviet delegation, which by and large had sided with the third world. The texts adopted today will serve as the basis for efforts by Amadou-Mahtar M'Bow of Senegal, Unesco's Director General, to work out a precise program for 1984 and 1985. The program will have to be approved by Unesco's General Assembly next summer, and some of the arguments will undoubtedly be resumed then.

WILL BUY BOSTON PAPER
Date: 04 December 1982

Rupert Murdoch announced today that he had reached labor agreements enabling him to buy the ailing Boston Herald American from the Hearst Corporation and keep it on the newsstands. The agreement, which is still subject to formal ratification by some of the 11 unions, was reached only minutes before the paper was to have ceased publication. It will add the morning tabloid with its circulation of 250,000 to a Murdoch collection of publications in the United States, Britain and Australia. Mr. Murdoch is editor and publisher of The New York Post. The accord here, which came after a series of bargaining sessions that began Thursday morning and ended just before 5 P.M. today, is the first successful sale of a failing metropolitan daily in a 16-month period that has seen newspapers close in Washington, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Minneapolis and Buffalo. Mr. Murdoch had expressed interest in buying The Buffalo Courier-Express but was unable to reach agreement with the union's there.

Special Session Still Feeds on Small Rations
Special Still
The 97th Congress rolled into Washington last week for its last sitting, a three-week special session convened mostly to deal with money bills the lawmakers left hanging when they adjourned to campaign. It passed the week mostly doing other things, including setting the tone for the agenda of the 98th. Senate majority leader Howard H. Baker drew the line. ''We're never going to save our way out of the recession,'' Mr. Baker warned the White House, even as the White House budget office forecast that the Federal deficit would hit $200 billion in the mid-1980's unless more budget cuts were made or more taxes raised - recovery or no.

RATES DECLINE ON JOBLESS NEWS
Date: 04 December 1982

Short- and long-term interest rates declined yesterday as credit market participants grew more confident that a weak economy and rising unemployment would lead the Federal Reserve to encourage lower interest rates in coming weeks. The announcement yesterday morning of a larger-than-expected fourtenths of 1 percent increase in the unemployment rate for November, to 10.8 percent, touched off a sharp rally in the credit markets. In the late afternoon, the Federal Reserve lent further support to the view that interest rates would continue to decline by announcing a steep drop in business loan demand and a $1.3 billion drop in the nation's basic money supply. Concern about the health of the economy has already led the Fed to reduce short-term interest rates from more than 14 percent in early July to less than 9 percent in the two weeks ended Dec.1. However, the declines have come more slowly in the past month, leaving markets confused about the timing of future drops.

After agonizing over what to render to Caesar when Caesar is deploying nuclear arms, Archbishop Raymond G. Hunthausen of Seattle decided last April to hold back 50 percent of the Federal tax due on his $9,000 income. In making out his estimated return for 1982, the Roman Catholic prelate said he was sending $125 to the Internal Revenue Service for the first quarter and the $125 balance to an escrow account kept by a peace organization.
