With those funds lost, he said, local governments working with foundations and the private sector still can provide' Americans with "decent safe and clean housing." Jaalce Rettman, St Paul's housing information director and a long-time advocate for more low-income housing downtown, said yesterday that she hoped the American Beauty project was the first step In an ongoing effort to replace razed low-income units. The American Beauty project Is not a part of the $2.7 million, low-Income bousing program announced earlier this month by Minneapolis, St Paul and Hennepin and Ramsey counties, although it is representative of the types of housing that will be created under that program, said Ken Johnson, housing director for the city's Department of Planning and Economic Development Asset Development Services Is lend Partly cloudy through Wednesday.

Lucas Deszamp, 66, 3617 Morgan Av.

learned that Kohut and Ana My-kola will be allowed to come to the United States, apparently as a result of a letter written by San Francisco Mayor Dianne Felnsteln to Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev last April asking him to "end the pain of separation" for 160 Soviet citizens with families In the United States. The letter was co-signed by mayors from several other cities, including Minneapolis Mayor Don Fraser. Felnsteln was notified Just before Christmas that the Soviets would allow the emigration Deszamp, who immigrated from the Soviet Union in 1950, said yesterday that he has been trying to get his brother out since 1956. His efforts Included letters to the late Vice President Hubert Humphrey and other national leaders. "You've got to be persistent" he said.

His brother is 57, and a retired engineer living In the Ukraine, Deszamp said. He said his sister-in-law Is 48. "I am grateful to the United States and President Reagan and the Soviet authorities, somewhat although (the Soviet people) cannot be free no matter who Is premier," he said. Deszamp said he believes the emigrations were allowed "In the Interest of peace," but said he doesn't know when his relatives will be leaving the Soviet Union. Material from Associated Press was used In this story.

MIVf-AWar FMAMONO ml ami The river crested 13 to 15 Inches above flood stage Sunday, said Mayor Jim Steinmetz. Water In the basements of some houses had reached "halfway to the floor Joists," Steinmetz said. He said that a southwest wind blowing at 20 to 25 miles per hour was slowing the St Clair's flow by about one-third, and that lee forming offshore from Algonac forced water over the banks. "The ice begins about a half-mile north of Algonac, and It apparently continues all the way down to the Detroit Rifer," said J. Robert Johnson, St, Clair County emergency services coordinator.

"The water gets on shore and freezes and it doesn't go back," P.M. time shown In dark face type Weather data from U.S. Weather Service page IB ing $702,000 for the project Other funding will Include loans of $680,000 from the city's Rental Rehab Loan Program; $250,000 from the Minneapolis-St. Paul Family Housing Program with funds from the McKnlght Foundation; $150,000 from the St Paul Companies, and $97,500 from Rafferty, Rafferty, Mi-kotowskl, Roney and Associates. The partners have made a 10-year commitment to the project Limited-partner investors will benefit from the 25 percent historic preservation tax credits.

Jan Golden, housing director for the Wilder Foundation, said applications for the rooms will be available after Feb. 1. Victims of downtown displacement will get first priority, she said. Staff writer Richard Meryhew contributed to this report Zlegenhagen said that In the future, disciplinary actions against physicians will be made public soon after they are taken. The Board of Medical Examiners disciplinary actions are public Information.

An Individual who wants to know whether actions have been taken against a specific doctor may find out by calling the board's office. Until Saturday, that number is 623-5147. The number will be changed Saturday to 642-0538. Majority of cases involved chemical dependency jams re The St Clair County Sheriffs Department warned that high river levels and Ice, following by spring thawing, could extend the flood threat into May or June. Around Ontario, Malheur County officials and about a dozen National Guardsmen helped seven families leave farm homes flooded by up to i feet of water south of the city, said County Corrections Officer E.J.

Mackey. Flooding was minor on the Idaho side of the river but two families left homes In a low-lying area near Payette. Others stayed put for the time being. Weeks of freezing temperatures have created about 35 miles of ice Jams on the Snake River along the Idaho-Oregon border. Other cases involving chemical abuse resulted In restrictions on the licenses of the physicians.

Although the restrictions differ, they generally require abstinence from drugs and liquor, enrollment In chemical dependency treatment andor participation in Alcoholics Anonymous or similar program, regular meetings with board members and, in many cases, periodic uryie testing. Some of doctors also are prohibited from prescribing or having access to certain drugs. Most or all, of the physicians functioning under such conditions are complying, and some already have been free of chemicals for several years. At least one case Involves a doctor who had a chemical dependency problem during her medical training but underwent treatment and became an AA member. She admitted those facts when she applied for a license, and probably will be allowed an unrestricted license in a few years if she remains free of chemicals, Zlegenhagen said.

Dr. Richard Tompkins, president of the Board of Medical Examiners, said the board was reluctant to release names of physicians who are "dealing adequately" with chemical dependency, but he added that it has no qualms about Identifying dependent doctors who refuse to seek recovery. "They are a hazard to the public," he said. Tompkins, an Internist and rheuma-tologlst at the Mayo Clinic in Roches "'Associated Press One of the worst ice jams on the Snake River in 25 years backed up ftater and forced several Oregon 'families off low-lying farms Monday, find lee jams and high wind caused flooding that forced 20 to 25 families from their homes along the St. Clair River in Michigan.

The lce-)am flooding around Ontario, was 50 to 60 miles from Boise, -Idaho, which had a record low temperature yesterday of 6 below zero, the city's fourth day of record lows its 20th consecutive day of lows al or below zero. Flooding at Algonac, about 40 miles northeast of Detroit, was caused by a combination of Ice, high wind and high water In the river connecting lakes Huron and St Clair. DOCTORS: Continued from page IB pendent physicians who wrote preemptions to obtain drugs for themselves. Dr. Ceferino B.S.

Padilla, a North St Paul specialist in Internal medicine, was the only physician to have his license revoked during the period covered by the board's report. Padilla, whose case has received wide news coverage, was accused of having sexual relations with three of his patients and of exchanging diet pill prescriptions for sexual favors. Padilla Is appealing the revocation. One of the most unusual actions involved Joy Bennett a Mound, woman who counsels women suffering from premenstrual syndrome. Bennett was accused of practicing medicine without a license.

Her case was settled when she agreed to stop 'diagnosing premenstrual syndrome and estrogen-progesterone Imbalance and to refrain from prescribing or administering medications for the treatment of those maladies. Another settlement Involved Dr. Roy B. Parke of Northome, Minn. Parke Is an advocate of chelation, a controversial chemical treatment for hardening of the arteries.

Although the treatment Is not Illegal, the Board of Medical Examiners has taken the position that it is "not appropriate," at least until further study of the therapy has been made. Parke agreed to refrain from using the therapy in his practice. The board limited the type of surgery that may be conducted by Dr. Ronald W. Taintor of Marshall, ter, said that physicians who are prohibited from prescribing or dispensing addictive drugs generally are people who have been conned or pressured by patients, If they are not themselves dependent If such doctors are found to be competent In other respects, the restrictions prevent them from being used as drug sources, he said.

Zlegenhagen said none of the doctors disciplined for prescription problems was Involved In dispensing drugs for street distribution. Such cases would be turned over to police, he said. The number of disciplinary actions against physicians over the past 18 months Is relatively small, given that almost 10,000 medical doctors are practicing in the state. In fact compilations of such actions by the Federation of State Medical Boards show that Minnesota Is 35th among the states In disciplinary actions per 1,000 doctors. Martin and Tompkins said it Is too early to tell If the changes In state law which became effective Aug.

1 will result In an Increase in disciplinary actions. The changes Include more stringent requirements for reporting malpractice by doctors, hospitals, clinics and other Institutions. It also clarifies the board's powers to Impose discipline. "If there is more out there than we know about, there will be an Increase In actions," Martin said. "Anything we find out, we're not going to sweep under the rug, that's for sure." Minn.

Taintor was prohibited from performing abdominal Burgery except surgery of the abdominal wall and was also ordered to have quarterly meetings with a board member. The official complaint against him was "unprofessional conduct relating to surgical practices, but no other information about his case could be obtained yesterday. Two of the physicians whose licenses were suspended by the board live In other states. One Is John C. Wohlrabe of Port Charlotte, who was said to have violated terms of a restricted license to practice medicine.

The other was Benjamin A. Dvorak Phoenix, whose Minnesota license was suspended after his Arizona license was suspended, but no further details were available yesterday. Dr. Charles H. Bloom, Hinckley, also was suspended.

The board charged he violated terms of a restricted license Imposed because of chemical dependency. Bloom's file Indicates that the restrictions on his license, Imposed In January of this year, required him to refrain from drug use and to submit to weekly urine tests. The board said that In November he was found to have taken codeine without a prescription from another doctor and to have submitted a urine sample from someone else when he was to produce his weekly sample. Contacted at home yesterday, Bloom said he had not received word of the suspension from the Board of Medical Examiners and refused to answer any further questions. mmmisi 1986 BUICK CENTURY CUSTOM SEDANS I Equipped with: timed glass, air, engine block heater, tilt, wsw, steel belted radisis.
