The medal was awarded in 1903 to William Cremer, an early union leader, member of Parliament and founder of several peace organizations. The New York Times NEW YORK Interior Secretary Donald P.

Hodel reactivated a long-dormant federal advisory commission on the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island on Friday and called on it to help decide how more than 20 acres of Ellis Island should be restored. The issue is the last important policy decision concerning the rehabilitation of the statue and Ellis Island. It has led to nearly three years friction among National Park Service officials, proponents of various development plans for Ellis Island and Lee A. Iacocca, the chairman of the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation, a private organization that is shepherding the rehabilitation effort. Mr.

lacocca, the chairman Chrysler is also chairman of the reactivated panel, the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Centennial Commission. At a meeting of the commission Friday at New York University, Mr. Iacocca said that more than $185.6 million had been raised for the project, which has been budgeted at $230 million. He said construction work was on schedule both for the statue, which is scheduled to be rededicated by President Reagan next July 4, and for the Great Hall of Ellis Island, which is scheduled to reopen in July 1987. He emphasized that of all the questions confronting the 47-member commission, "the big one would be what do we do with- the other two-thirds of the island" apart from the restored Great Hall, which will include a museum and the grounds and cluster of buildings around it.

In brief opening remarks, Mr. Hodel thanked the members for participating and asked them to advise department on next year's Statue of Liberty celebration and several other issues, including the Ellis Island question. As reorganized by Mr. Hodel, the commission includes two retired Army generals, Matthew B. Ridgeway and William C.

Westmoreland; several corporate chairmen and presidents; private citizens who have long been active in the restoration of the island; and several celebrities, including Bob Hope and Lionel Hampton. Much of the contention surrounding the project has centered on the commission itself, which met three times before the terms of its original members expired in 1984, and a decision about what to do with more than two-dozen buildings on the southern two-thirds of the island. Farm bill dragging in Senate Continued from Page D-1 in 1987. As long as both a one-year and a four. freeze are in the bill, it will be up to Senate conferees to decide which freeze to go with.

But because Republicans will hold the edge among the Senate conferees, because of their 53-47 majority in the full Senate, it's expected that the Senate position in conference will be for the one-year freeze. The House farm bill contains an effective five-year freeze on target prices. For wheat, Mr. Dole included a program under which farmers could get a higher target price if they agreed to idle more of their land. In other words, the less they plant, the higher the target price.

For example, if they reduce their wheat crop 25 percent next, year, their target price would $4.60 a bushel, but if they cut plantings 35 percent, the target price would be $5.15. These levels, however, would be reduced over the years. Among the other highlights: Mandatory acreage reductions of 15 percent for corn, 20 percent cotton and 15 percent for rice for farmers who want to participate in the government programs in 1986-88. A five-year program under which the secretary of agriculture could idle up to 40 million acres of fragile land in a conservation reserve. Payments of $35 an acre to soybean growers if they repaid their 1985 government loans instead of forfeiting crops used as collate Beginning next year, support prices for soybeans would be reduced.

Mr. Dole's proposal won Senate approval earlier this week on a 56- 41 vote. Shortly afterward, the Senate rejected, 55-42, a move by Iowa Democrat Tom Harkin to strike the one-year freeze part of the measure, leaving only the four-year freeze. Then, it turned down 50-46 a move by Montana Democrat John Melcher to make his own cuts in the Dole measure. In an effort to get the measure out of the Senate, Mr.

Dole has kept senators in late sessions this week in an attempt to wind up that chamber's action on the measure before senators leave on their weeklong Thanksgiving break. He even brought them back for three hours of debate, until after 1 a.m., after President Reagan's address Thursday night to a joint session of Congress. Mr. Dole says his compromise would save $10.1 billion to billion over the projected cost of the farm commodity parts of the Senate Agriculture Committee's bill. That cost over three years is estimated at $65 billion.

The agriculture committee estimated the three-year cost of the entire bill at $117 billion. After a meeting earlier this week with James C. Miller III, the director of the Office of Management and Budget, Mr. Reagan administration was willing to go up to $50 billion over three years, $15 billion above the $35 billion baseline approved earlier in the congressional budget resolution. During consideration of amendments to the Dole plan, the Senate killed a proposal by Sen.

Jesse Helms, a North Carolina Republican who heads the agriculture committee, to change the federal food stamp program into a block grant. But it approved an amendment to prohibit low-income energy assistance from being used in calculating an individual's eligibility for the food stamp program.

Concerning electricity, the chairman and chief executive officer of the Detroit Edison Walter J. McCarthy said Wednesday that power shortages loomed in the future if utility regulators continue to question the "prudence" of utilities that have built nuclear power plants. When asked about the KCC's Wolf Creek decision, Mr. McCarthy said it was "incredibly unfair" to penalize utilities because they have an unexpected surplus of power on hand after completing a nuclear plant. The KCC in September slashed rate increases sought by the owners of Wolf Creek.

The commission ruled that imprudent management had added $283 million to the cost of the $3.05 billion plant. The owners were barred from recovering the $283 million. The Kansas City Power Light Co. and the Kansas Gas and Electric Co. of Wichita each own 47 percent of the plant.

Amory Lovins, the director of research for the Rocky Mountain Institute, a non-profit group based Old Snowmass, told the commissioners that utilities must more aggressively promote conservation. "Today, the average U.S. utility is still spending about a dollar per household per day to build power plants that it won't need," Mr. Lovins said. But John R.
