Even before Andy Young's venture, there were a number of U.S.-P.L.O. contacts, most notably by Milton Wolf, a leader of the Cleveland Jewish community and currently U.S. Ambassador in Austria, who met with Issam Sartawi, a Vienna-based P.L.O. official. Coming on top of the other contacts, Young's meeting with the P.L.O. set off alarms in Jerusalem. It seemed to confirm a shift in U.S. policy and clearly raised the level of contact; as U.N.

RUDIGER DORNBUSCH, 37. While the Keynesians can flaunt the master's classic, General Theory, and the monetarists can flourish Milton Friedman's A Monetary History of the United States, the closest that the new economists have to such a tome is a 651-page text, Macroeconomics, by Dornbusch and Stanley Fischer, 35, both professors at M.I.T.

...center of the trouble is the rivalry between supporters and opponents of former President Milton Obote, who was ousted by Amin in 1971 and has lived in exile in Tanzania ever since. Obote has remained there since Amin's overthrow, presumably because Lule and his colleagues felt that the ex-President's presence would have a disruptive effect on the new government. A week ago, Tanzania's President Julius Nyerere, godfather of sorts to the new regime in Kampala, called its leaders to Tanzania to talk over their differences. One result of the meeting is that Obote...
Carter planned to fly with Rosalynn and Amy to Vienna on Thursday. He will relax at U.S. Ambassador Milton Wolfs elegant white villa during much of the following day, then pay a courtesy call with Brezhnev on Austrian President Rudolf Kirchschl...
