The experts base their pre dictions on expectations of the Commerce Department’s “flash” projection of the rate of growth of gross national pro duct in the current April-June quarter The projection is based on incomplete data and is designed to be used only as an internal departmental yardstick. Yet it is the first fairly reliable indication of the dimensions of the re covery. Until recent weeks the econo mic improvement under way since December was generally viewed as a modest turnaround that was not up to the 7 percent burst of speed that is the average for other post-World War II re coveries. Economist Michael Evans, head of a forecasting firm in Washington, thinks the GNP now is actually doing better than the recovery average. “Eight percent,” he pre dicted. “It’s unbelievable, a com plete shock relative to what peo ple were thinking.” Commerce Department chief economist Robert Ortner gener ally agrees, although saying the pace could be quite a bit better than 6 percent. The department also is revis ing its first-quarter measure which last set the GNP pace at a 2.5 percent annual growth rate from January through March. The GNP acts as a speedometer for economic progress or retreat with a certain speed, between 3 percent and 5 percent, neces sary to reverse the growth of un employment, most economists say. The strong statistics for nar row sectors of the economy, especially housing and factory production, suggest the econo mic recovery is hitting the high side of its potential right now, with analysts looking for a rate of growth of around 7 percent. The latest strong statistic was Monday’s 1.2 percent growth in personal income in May, the best income report since July 1981. Personal spending was up 1.4 percent. Only two of the last five quarters have shown any posi tive growth. The previous surge of any size was the 7.9 percent growth rate in the first quarter of 1981, a recovery from the 1980 recession that died before it could make up for that period’s economic damage. When the next n gan soon after, in the nier of 1981, it pulM nomy below the deptl 1980. If the GNP exceed! cent it will establish! high, the fastest growth! second quarter of the rate was 11 percent The New York change, having pi to record heights rumors Paul Yolcker renamed head of Reserve Board, wash Monday to his weektis pointment. theS The Dow Jones indi were off 3.01 todoseatij Manpower Inc,,alt porary service firm,! ployers nationwide ard mg hiring increasesd:- coming three montk Texan resigns law post United Press International WASHINGTON — Assistant Attorney General Carol Dink ins, one of the highest ranking women in the Justice Depart ment, is resigning as head of the division that enforces the na tion’s environmental laws. Dinkins, 37, a native Texan, has commuted between Washington and Houston, where her family lives, for the last 2*/2 years. Dinkins said Mon day she is leaving because she has “completed the job I came to do.” She said she is particularly proud of the division’s record in criminal enforcement. So far this year, she said, more indict ments have been brought against more people than in any other fiscal year. “I think we’ve been pushing the expansion of the law and seeing some real progress,” Dinkins said. She said her July 1 departure had nothing to do with the re cent Environmental Protection Agency controversy involving former EPA administrator Anne Burford. the House subcommittee on making the material available. Dinkins and her staff also were responsible for filing one of the biggest hazardous waste enforcement cases ever, seeking millions of dollars to finance the cleanup of the Stringfellow Acid Pits in California. Dinkins was immersed in the dispute over Burford’s refusal, on grounds of executive pri vilege, to turn subpoenaed documents over to a House sub committee investigating the EPA’s management of the Su perfund program. Dinkins and lawyers on her staff were involved in screening which EPA enforcement files would be turned over to Con gress. She also was involved in working out a settlement with Stringfellow, one of the na tion’s worst toxic waste dumps, has been at the center of charges that the administration manipu lated cleanup financing to influ ence last fall’s Senate election campaign in California. The decision by the former EPA administrator last year to put off announcing a cleanup grant for the site led to allega tions the fund was being used for political purposes. Dinkins has always denied allegations of politicals lation. ‘Tve instructed tml from the beginning here to litigate anditsp done in a professionals she said. “This is ana very professional plact! f“ tice law."

Ambush sparks Syrian violence^ ■ndt -v irtns 1 lor United Press International Seven Syrian soldiers were kil led in an ambush on a military convoy near Tripoli, sparking a new round of street fighting Tuesday in Lebanon’s second largest city between rival Mos lem militiamen. Syrian troops sealed off Tripoli, a port city 42 miles north of Beirut, after the Monday ambush by closing roads leading to the city. The violence, pitting pro- Syrian Alawite Moslem militia men against anti-Syrian Sunni Moslem gunmen, broke out Monday evening and gained in tensity through the night into early Tuesday. The rightist Pha- langist Radio said “columns of smoke rise in the city while mor tar shells, rockets and machine- gun fire rock the night.” The Syrian convoy came under attack 8 miles south of Tripoli, apparently in retalia tion for the massacre of 16 peo ple in Tripoli last week by Ala wite militiamen. Police said seven Syrian soldiers were killed but security sources said as many as 20 soldiers may have died in the attack. Earlier Monday, three Syrian soldiers were wounded when machine-gun fire raked their ammunition truck. The ambush was the latest incident in grow ing militia violence in Tripoli, Lebanon’s second largest city with a population of 400,000. In Washington, U.S. officials were pressing Syria to withdraw its troops from Lebanon before Israel takes action that could jeopardize the negotiations to rid Lebanon of all foreign forces. Syria has refused to leave Lebanon and denounced the Lebanese-Israeli troop with drawal pact. U.S. officials said Lebanese President Amin Gemayel would visit Washington next month to meet with President Reagan, presumably to discuss the con tinued presence of Syrian and Israeli troops in his country. Five days later, Reagan is ex pected to see Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin in Washington. State Department officials also said U.S. Middle East envoy Philip Habib was considering leaving his post, but White House spokesman Larry Speakes said the president “knows of no plans for him to leave. The president would like for him to remain as a Mideast negotiator. He has the utmost confidence in him.” In Damascus, Yasser Arafat met Tuesday with top Palesti nian leaders in hopes of putting down a bloody m threatening his leadersl Palestine Liberation lion.
