By FORD BURKHART
Associated Press Writer
    UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) - A rebel chief from Africa says
he cherishes the heritage of Portugal - even while killing
Portuguese troops.
    Amilcar Cabral promises to proclaim a new nation in West Africa.
But Its foreign policy, he says, will be pro-Portugal.
    For 10 years, Cabral has fought for the independence of Portuguese
Guinea. Last year, he said, his troops killed 912 Portuguese
soldiers. He declares: ''The simple people of Portugal are
good. They are with us. The soldiers are just mercenaries
paid for each battle.''
    Cabral wants the area to achieve a status something like
Brazil - independent yet linked to Lisbon by Language and culture.
    ''I would never change my Portuguese name even though I renounced
Portuguese citizenship many years ago,'' he observes.
    Cabral made a propaganda splash here delivering an hour-long
plea for support for his revolutionary movement.
    But diplomats question whether it brought any closer the
end of guerrilla war in Guinea.
    The war seems to have reached a stalemate, observers here
say. Portugal controls cities, rebels control the forests.
Both sides appear to receive arms from outside, maintaning
a rough balance of power.
    Cabral's forest army is said to include 5,000 men in uniform
and 5,000 men and women peasant-soldiers. He asserts they
control two thirds of the territory of Portuguese Guinea - roughly
the size of New Jersey.
    Cabral's movement has seemed to follow a pro-Soviet line
in the split between China and Russia. But after a few days
of intense lobbying for support in the halls of the United
Nations, Cabral said: ''More than ever, we know we have to
be strictly nonaligned and independent. We don't like labels.
We are not Communist, or Socialist - we are African. Our nation
comes out of African historic conditions.''
    Cabral did achieve an historic first here. His was the first
appearance by a ''rebel observer'' with official U.N. status.
    He told the 132-member Trust Territories Committee his new
nation would include the 15 Cape Verde islands, 300 miles
northwest of Guinea.

UNITED NATIONS Take 2 Rebel: Guinea.
    From those islands came better educated, mixed-blood Africans
who helped Portugal administer its mainland colonies. Cabral,
born in Guinea, was educated is the islands and in Lisbon.
He returned to head a government agricultural experiment station.
    He is a mulatto. His father was a teacher, and his family
was always better off than the masses of peasants.
    ''We do not judge the capacity to exploit by the color of
the skin,'' Cabral said.
    ''We want to express the personality of our people. We want
the respect of the world, never more to have our condition
determined by other people, including other Africans.''
    The Portuguese play up foreign support for the rebels in seeking
aid and allies against them. West Germany and France provide
arms and the United States is giving Portugal $435 million
in economic aid. Standard Oil of New Jersey - now called Exxon -
is exploring Portuguese Guinea for oil. Czechoslavak and Soviet
antiaircraft guns reportedly fire from Cabral's rebel bases
at Portugal's Italian-made jet fighters. Chinese and Cubans
are active in the area.
    Cabral assets his movement has no favorites in the global
big power struggle, but wants to keep channels open to all
sides.
    Africans and Asians compare him to George Washington. The
Portuguese call him just another terrorist.
    But at the United Nations, Cabral has put his cause in the
spotlight as the symbol of a global movement for independence
in colonial lands.
    Almost as an afterthought Cabral observed that the nation
he will proclaim lacks a name.
    ''It's unimportant,'' he said. ''In the party, we do not
confuse the imporatnt with the secondary.''

    SAIGON (AP) - The South Vietnamese government is planning
for a postwar tourist boom. Americans may get a chance to
fish in B52 bomb craters.
    Le Thai Khuong, director of the national tourist office,
says he would like to turn the country into a vacation paradise
with the sandy beaches of Vung Tau becoming Southeast Asia's
answer to Acapulco.
    Foreign visitors would hunt tiger and elephant around Ban
Me Thuot and other areas of the jungled central highlands.
    The once thriving American air base at Cam Ranh Bay, now
a ghost city, and Phu Quoc Island in the Gulf of Siam, currently
home for more than 20,000 North Vietnamese prisoners of war,
would become seaside resorts.
    Visitors would cruise into Da Nang, the major port city and
military base in the north, and tour the former capital city
of Hue. Its 19th century Citadel, modeled on Peking's Forbidden
City, is now a military encampment.
    The government doesn't plan to bar tourists from the remains
of war.
    Khuong says:

of war - the bomb craters of the B52s. Some have fish in the

Aliens
    MONROVIA, Liberia (AP) - This country plans to revoke the
work permits of thousands of aliens next year in efforts to
''liberalize'' the economy.
    The Liberian Age, organ of the ruling True Whig party, says
the move is aimed at giving Liberians ''a chance to utilize
their talents.''
    The minister of labor and youth, J. Jenkins Peal, says: ''There
are thousands of aliens here who are occupying jobs which
Liberians can occupy and do more efficiently than aliens.''
    Africanization has become a major goal of most African nations
in recent years as they seek to gain control of their largely
foreign-dominated economies.
    The move in Lberia seems to be aimed mostly at the Lebanese
and Asian community in Monrovia. It controls an estimated
85 per cent of the retail trade. Lebanese traders in the capital
operate supermarkets, restaurants and clothing outlets.
    The government is also moving to promote greater employment
of management-level Liberians by the large foreign-run rubber
and iron ore companies in this West African nation.
    Peal, according to the Age, said his ministry had advised
several aliens that as of Dec. 31 work permits for aliens
will no longer be valid unless it is established that their
jobs can't be managed by Liberians.
    Unemployment and underemployment are chronic in this country
of 1 1/2-million. These problems are common to most West African
nations.

Campaign 280
    SAN JOSE, Costa Rica (AP) - There's no vote for president
here until 1974, but you'd never know it.
    Broadcast and newspaper advertisements are praising the virtues
of 10 announced or undeclared candidates for the election
14 months hence.
    The campaign has taken on added interest through the candidacy
of Jorge Gonzalez Marten. He made a fortune in the United
States, returned to Costa Rica and has formed the Partido
Nacional Independiente or Independent National party.
    This has put a shadow of unpredictability on the campaign.
It has almost become tradition in Costa Rica that one large
party in power loses the presidential election and the large
party out of power takes over. There have been only two strong
parties previously, Liberacion Nacional and Unificaccion Nacional.
Jose Figures rode the former's banner to a sweeping victory
and a four-year term, his third, in 1970, but he cannot succeed
himself.
    These two parties have still to name their 1974 candidates.
Daniel Oduber, president of Liberacion Nacional, may be its
man. Unificaccion is to name its candidate in December.
    Gonzalez Marten has spent freely in a U.S.-style campaign
blitz which has won him national renown and brought his party
success in some special elections.
    If he runs strong enough in the 1974 voting he could force
the election into a runoff. The winning candidate must muster
40 per cent of the total vote. If no one receives that percentage
the race is decided by a runoff between the two top candidates.
    Gonzalez Marten, is using his personal wealth, and that of
several wealthy backers, to support his campaign. Because
his party is new he is not eligible to receive campaign funds
from the government as other, more established, parties do.

 Indochina At a Glance
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    SAIGON - The United States rushed more warplanes to South Vietnam
today in the war's biggest military-aid effort - which, U.S. sources
said, would make the South Vietnamese air force the third largest in
the world with more than 2,000 aircraft.

    WASHINGTON - The Nixon administration is considering a five-year,
$7.5-billion program for postwar economic assistance to Indochina,
including $2.5 billion for North Vietnam, U.S. government sources
have revealed.

    HANOI - Radio Hanoi assailed the Nixon administration for the arms
buildup in South Vietnam, declaring: ''The acts definitely reject
Nixon and other U.S. officials' statements that peace in Vietnam is
within reach.''

    TOKYO - A broadcast by China's official Hsinhua news agency accused
the United States of attempting to prolong the war in Vietnam
by rushing war supplies to Saigon while delaying the signing of a
cease-fire agreement.

    PROVIDENCE, R.I. - President Nixon, on a campaign trip Friday, said
the peace agreement calls for a cease-fire not only in Vietnam, but
also in Laos and Cambodia.

    CHICAGO - Democratic presidential candidate George McGovern says
President Nixon has betrayed the nation's hopes for a Vietnam
settlement by pursuing a course that ''is not  a path to peace but

 Philippines press 360 2 takes total 610
By GIL SANTOS
    MANILA (AP) - The Philippine martial law administration has
started to organize an information arm which will include
the Department of Information, the presidential information
office, a national news service and a Bureau of Broadcast.
    Information Secretary Francisco S. Tatad, a former news agency
reporter and columnist of the now closed English-language Manila
Bulletin, is head of the whole setup.
    He has asked for the peso equivalent of about $17 million
for the entire operation, Tatad told newsmen today, but the
sum will have to be pruned because of a shortage of resources.
    President Ferdinand E. Marcos and his Cabinet consider the
Information Department a vital service to boost the administration's
efforts for reforms in the country.
    The expanded establishment for information has started absorbing
some reporters, editors and cameramen who worked for news
media which Marcos closed when he proclaimed martial law Sept.
22.
    About 10,000 employes of the news media have been affected
by martial law in the greater Manila area alone. Some of them may
be hired by the government at a better wage scale than before.
    The department initially will maintain three regional offices
in the country's island groups, Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao,
Tatad said. Eventually, there will be 11 regional offices
to disseminate information down to the grass-roots level.
    The department is now authorized to maintain attaches in New
York, Washington, San Francisco, London, Montreal, Bonn, Paris
and Tokyo. Their principal duties at the onset will be the
development of relations with news media in the United States,
Europe, Canada and Japan.
    Presently, these jobs are done by Foreign Office officials
or third secretaries in the Philippines diplomatic missions
abroad.
    The national news service will maintain domestic and foreign
correspondents and bureaus, Tatad said. The details of the
service, including its cost, are being studied, he added.
    ''It will be a two-way traffic of news between Manila and
the provinces, when the news service is operational,'' Tatad
said.
    In premartial law years, the major newspapers of Manila operated
the Philippines News Service, which gathered provincial news
mostly through moonlighting public officials or amateur
correspondents.

    The Bureau of Broadcast will merge the facilities and staff
of the government-owned and operated Philippine Broadcasting
System and the Voice of the Philippines.
    The Information Department will maintain the national media
production center, equipped with both black and white and
color movie production facilities to serve broadcast needs.
    The government also is organizing a three-man mass media
council which will license news media every six months, Tatad
said.
    Members of the council include Tatad and Defenes Secretary
Juan Ponce Enrile. Tatad said he has recommended columnist
Teodoro Valencia of the Manila Times as the third member.
    Asked whether the council will also issue clearances to reopen
newspapers and radio and television stations closed when martial
law was proclaimed, Tatad said that will be ''an intelligence
matter.''
    Marcos shut 15 privately owned newspapers, seven television
networks and more than 260 radio stations.
    Three English-language daily newspapers, three television
stations and 91 radio stations have been allowed to operate.
    Marcos had accused the news media of having ''participated
willingly or unwillingly, consciously or unconciously,'' in
subversion against the government.

    He told the assembly ''no power on earth'' would in future

    NEW ORLEANS, La. (AP) - A fire that destroyed a section of stadium
bleachers at Louisiana's Grambling College was under investigation
today as black legislators met with students who have taken over
Southern University's New Orleans branch.
    The Grambling fire Friday night broke out about an hour before a
9 p.m. curfew was to go into effect on that north Louisiana campus 
in the wake of disturbances Thursday night which led to the arrest
24 students on property destruction charges.
    School security guards said they believed the stadium fire had been
set because it flamed up so quickly.
    At Southern, the New Orleans-area black legislators met Friday
night with school administrators and later with students to discuss
their grievances. They planned another meeting later today.
    Emmett W. Bashful, the Southern University system vice president
who heads the New Orleans branch, opened ''peace'' negotiations with
the students Friday. He said ''some accord was reached'' on the
students' demands but declined to elaborate, saying administrators
''hope to continue these discussions.''
    His appearance at the school marked the first time he had been on
campus since students burned the American flag last Wednesday,
hoisted a ''black liberation'' flag, ordered the faculty to leave
and occupied the administration building.
    At Southern University in Baton Rouge, the third predominantly
black Louisiana school hit by recent student unrest, officials
imposed seven new rules - including a ban on unauthorized group
meetings.
    At all schools, the student demands include the dismissal of top
administrators and more student control.

    WARSAW, Poland (AP) - The first American ''shop window''
in Communist Europe, designed to promote the sale of U.S.
industrial goods, was opened in Warsaw today.
    Earlier this week, Washington achieved another ''first''
in the Moscow-led bloc by signing with Poland a pact to cooperate
in science and technology.
    Called the U.S. Trade Development and Technical Information
Office, its main role will be to promote contacts between
American and Polish firms.
    ''U.S. businessmen will be able to make this place their
base for doing deals with police enterprises,'' said American
Robert E. Day Jr., who will head the center - located not far
from the Communist party's stone-gray Central Committee
headquarters.
    The office consists of four small rooms, the largest containing
a varied selection of business catalogues. With the limitd
space available, and only one American and a Polish staff
of three, some were wondering whether the tiny center would
be able to cope effectively in the event of a flood of inquiries
from both sides.
    Participating in the opening ceremony was Poland's deputy
foreign trade minister, Ryszard Karski, the U.S. Embassy's
charge d'affaires Davis E. E. Boster, and Marinqs Van Gessel
of the U.S. Bureau of International Commerce.

 Soviet Harvest 430
By STEPHENS BROENING
Associated Press Writer
    MOSCOW (AP) - The Soviet minister of agriculture reporting
a ''once in a century'' crop failure, suggested today that
the 1972 grain harvest was at least 30 million tons short of
the planned target.
    He didn't give a precise figure, nor would he pin down the
cost to the economy, which unofficial reports had put at around
$20 billion.
    At a rare news conference, Agriculture Minister Vladimir
V. Matskevich blamed a stubborn high-pressure system which
kept rain from European Russia during the growing season and
stunted the grain.
    Calling it a ''once in a century'' phenomenon, Matskevich
outlined on a map of the vast area afflicted by drought. It
extended from the Black Sea to the White Sea, from Kiev to
the Urals.
    Reporting on the harvest, he said: ''The crop this year will
be roughly at the average of the years of the eighth five-year
plan (1966-70). The crop is considerably higher than any crop
before the March (1956) plenum.
    ''We haven't accumulated all the data yet,'' he added.
    The average grain harvest in the last five-year plan was 167.6
million tons. The best crop before the March 1965 Central
Committee plenum was 152.2 million tons in 1964.
    Matskevich seemed to confirm the best outside estimates that
the 1972 harvest would be about 157 million tons, more than
30 million tons lower than the target of 190 million.
    Matskevich made no mention of the Soviet Union's record grain
imports this year, totaling more than a billion dollars worth
from the United States and lesser amounts from Canada, Australia,
France and Sweden.
    Matskevich said the ''bad crop'' was the cause of additional
expenditure: ''I don't know how much, but it was more than
usual. We will count it all up and make it public.''
    The most important figure - which will be kept secret - is the
amount of usable grain that survived the harvest, bone dry
in European Russia but soaking wet in key areas in the Urals.
The normally high-quality food grain grown in the eastern
part of the country was stored with mositure content as high
as 30-35 per cent. This wet grain rots quickly and within
a few weeks is fit only for low-qality animal feed or for
making industrial alcohol.
    The acceptable average level of moissture is 14 per cent,
and according to data published in the Soviet press, drying
facilities are not abundant enough to bring the grain down
to this level in time.
    Therefore, experts are prepared to subtract a minumum of
25 per cent from the total grain production claim when it
is published, to get a workable figure.
    If the harvest claimed by the authorities is, as expected,
around 157 million tons, the total of usable grain - and the
figure circulated within the ministry itself - would be about
118 million tons.

    NEW YORK (AP) - The manner in which the government is promoting
a planned sale of three million silver dollars from the defunct
Carson City, Nev., mint soon may lead to a showdown with coin
dealers and, perhaps, investment bankers.
    Nobody's reaching for the guns, as they used to in the 1880s,
when the dollars were minted. But tempers are flaring, and
some critics think the marshal, so to speak, should step in.
    That would be William Casey, chairman of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, which is empowered to regulate investments
and their promotion. The offender, the critics claim, is the
General Services Administration.
    The GSA, say both coin and stock dealers, is using huckster tactics
that, if used by a private promoter, would cause the SEC to issue
a cease and desist order.
    ''What they're saying could never be put into a prospectus,''
said Milton Fisher, an investment banker. Said Harvey Stack,
who claims to be the country's biggest coin dealer, ''I'm
writing to Casey and many senators.''
    In seeking to sell the uncirculated coins for a minimum of $30
each, the GSA has issued a flier bearing the headline, ''The Great
Silver Sale,'' beneath which is a statement from President Nixon
about these ''most valued reminders.''
    In smaller type are such statements as: ''Excellent for investments
or gifts. They are sound investments.''
    Said Joel Coen, a coin dealer. ''I ran a coin ad in the newspaper
and used the word 'investment,' and the SEC jumped all over me. They
told me to cease and desist, and I did, of course.''
    Now, he said, ''Lo and behold comes the government itself using the
word.'' He and many other dealers are irritated, he said. ''The
government is not an investment adviser.''
    Some underwriters who decline to become involved by name scorn
what they feel is an abundance of romance versus facts. ''How
would you like to have stock sold this way,'' said Fisher,
running his finger over certain phrases:
    -Collector's item. ''Who said so?'' he questioned.
    -Mined from the Comstock Lode. ''Prove it.''
    -Excellent for investments or gifts. ''They pay no interest
or dividends. And you'd have to pay for insurance on them.''

Crisis 330
    ANKARA (AP) - The leftist Republican Peoples' party withdrew from
Turkey's army-backed coalition government today, raising the
possibility of a political crisis.
    The party decided to withdraw its five cabinet ministers, saying
the government of Premier Ferit Melen is a ''right-wing coalition''
which has not taken into account its leftist policies.
    The Melen government is the fourth coalition government to be
formed since the armed forces toppled the conservative Justice party
regime of Premier Suleyman Demirel in March 1971 in a ''coup by
communique.''
    The armed forces leader had threatened a full military takeover if
a ''strong and respected new government'' were not formed ''above
xarty politics to make progressive reforms and end civil
disruption.''
    The disruption largely was controlled after proclamation of martial
law in 11 provinces including the large cities and a crackdown on
the extreme left. The reform issue never has been solved.
    Spotlighting the continuing threat of military intervention, Melen
met today with Gen. Faruk Gurler, chief of the general staff, after
receiving news of the Republican pullout.
    There is fear that the military's patience with political
infighting could be near exhaustion. There are reports of increasing
restlessness among younger officers.
    Melen still has the backing of the Justice party, which has 226
members in the 450-seat assembly and his centrist Reliance party
with 16 seats. He also could command the support of other splinter
parties and independents.
    The Republicans have 123 seats in the assembly. Their cabinet
pullout came over the issue of radical reforms demanded by the
soldiers.
    Such reforms were proposed by previous coalition governments under
Premier Nihat Erim. But they were watered down or delayed by the
conservative-dominated parliament.

By MICHAEL PUTZEL
Associated Press Writer
    SAIGON (AP) - The Viet Cong and North Vietnamese accused
the Nixon administration Saturday of trying to undermine a
draft peace agreement by rushing military supplies to South
Vietnam and setting up a civilian advisory corps to replace
American troops.
    The Viet Cong delegation to the Paris peace talks said the
United States is setting up a ''permanent corps of military
advisers disguised as civilians to take command of the Saigon
army.'' The statement also denounced American efforts to build
up South Vietnam's military inventory as ''acts of war.''
    ''These are acts of extreme gravity which uncover the intention
of the Nixon administration to decieve American and world
public opinion with words of peace while undermining efforts
to achieve a peaceful settlement,'' the statement said.
    North Vietnam, in a broadcast from Hanoi, said the urgent
buildup of war supplies ''definitely rejects Nixon's and other
U.S. officials' statements that peace in Vietnam is within
reach.''
    U.S. military sources here say the United States is secretly
making plans to substitute civiian advisers for American troops
who would have to be withdrawn if the draft agreement made
last month is signed.
    The Pentagon confirmed reports that it hastily is shipping
warplanes and other equipment into South Vietnam, even asking
some U.S. allies to supply F5 Freedom Fighter jets that are
in short supply in the United States.
    Although Defense Department spokesmen refused to discuss figures,
U.S. military sources here said the South Vietnamese air force
will have received as many as 400 new aircraft by the middle
of this month.
    The increase will make Saigon's air force the third largest
in the world with more than 2,000 planes and helicopters,
the informants said.
    Hundreds of armored vehicles, including tanks and armored
personnel carriers, also are being flown into South Vietnam
in the massive airlift.
    The still-unsigned draft agreement worked out by Hanoi and
Washington last month would cut off any further buildup of
the armed forces already in Vietnam and would require the
withdrawal of all American troops here within 60 days.
    In war action, U.S. B52 bombers dumped nearly 100 tons of
explosives in the southern panhandle of North Vietnam in an
effort to smash enemy troops and supplies in position to move
South before a cease-fire.
    The Saigon command reported that ground action tapered off
somewhat with 99 enemy attacks reported throughout the country.
It was the first time in 10 days that enemy-initiated incidents
dropped below the 100 mark.

    Field reports said government troops blocked an enemy attempt
to sabotage the ammunition depot at the U.S. Army's Long Binh
post, 12 miles northeast of Saigon. One infiltrator was killed
and another was captured before they could touch off explosives
they had carried into the base, the reports said. A third
was said to have escaped.
    Far to the north, the district town of Que Son was reported
to have changed hands for the sixth time in three months with
government troops now occupying the district headquarters compound.
Que Son was destroyed in earlier fighting, and the government
has established a temporary district seat in a more secure
area a few miles away.
    In Laos four North Vietnamese battalions, led by tanks, launched
a major attack on government positions south of the Plain
of Jars, military sources reported in Vientiane.
    The North Vietnamese force, which may number as many as 3,000
troops, drove government defenders off a ridge line 12 miles
from the big Lao-American base of Long Cheng on Friday.
    Military authorities said the ridge line was the first line
of defense for Long Cheng and the attack may herald the start
of another North Vietnamese effort to capture the base which
is the headquarters of Gen. Vang Pao and his clandestine army,
supported by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency.
    Air strikes were sent in as the North Vietnamese moved forward
in the rough mountain terrain.
    Laotian government forces sifting through ruined houses in
Kengkok, 205 miles southeast of Vientiane, found more bodies,
including one of a Lao Christian said to have been executed
by North Vietnamese forces because he helped American missionaries,
two of whom burned to death and two of whom are still missing
following the seizure of the town a week ago.
    An American official who flew into Kengkok shortly after
it was secured Thursday said the Lao man had been shot through
the chest and laid out on the ground, his arms spread in the
form of a cross. Lao villages said the man had helped Samnuel
Mattix and Lloyd Oppel, two young missionaries captured.
    Two bodies, tentatively identified as those of Evelyn Anderson,
25, and Beatrice Kosin, 35, also missionaries, were found
in a burned out house, tied with wire to a stake.
    The American who entered the town said it was not possible
to say whether the fire that killed the missionaries and burned
down a large part of the town was started deliberately.

 Negotiations Bjt 400
By MORRIS W. ROSENBERG
Associated Press Writer
    PARIS (AP) - Negotiations are now going on behind the scenes
through third countries to try to clarify points in the draft
peace agreement drawn up by the United States and North Vietnam,
a source close to the South Vietnamese delegation at the Paris
peace talks said Saturday.
    ''This does not exclude the possibility of direct contacts
between the parties,'' he added.
    France and the Soviet Union were indicated as among the likely
third party go-betweens.
    The source said that in its present form the draft agreement
''is unworkable.''
    The South Vietnamese sources commented: ''Before we can proceed
further in the negotiations we must know exactly what North
Vietnam has in mind and understands by many points of the
draft agreement.''
    Among the issues in the agreement which the source said must
be clarified are:
    1. The presence of North Vietnamese forces in South Vietnam.
''There are ways this problem can be resolved but we want
to know what the North Vietnamese have in mind,'' he said.
    2. The composition and role of the proposed National Council
of National Counciliation and Concord. ''Why did the North
Vietnamese use the Vietnamese word for power structure or
government to describe this and yet say in English it is an
administrative structure?'' he asked.
    3. Elections. ''The agreement does not say what kind of elections
are to be held and when,'' he commented.
    4. The cease-fire. ''There must be provisions for supervisory
and control teams to be in place when a cease-fire goes into
effect. This is not specified,'' he noted.
    5. Control of military equipment and personnel in South Vietnam.
''There are specific measures to reduce allied aid and reduce
armed forces in South Vietnam. But no measures are specified
for North Vietnam. If there is no commitment on the side of
Hanoi, this could lead to a big disequilibrium between the
military forces,'' he said. He added that he felt the ''big
powers'' have a special responsibility to act in his area.
    The source said the agreement should also clearly recognize
that there are four states in Indochina - the two Vietnams,
Cambodia and Laos - and pointed out that there was no specific
mention in the draft agreement of the demilitarized zone dividing
North and South Vietnam.
    Nevertheless, this informant commented that he was ''optimistic''
that ''solutions can be found.'' ''We have covered lots of
ground and we should be able to bring about a cease-fire to
the satisfaction of all sides.''
    ''But first,'' he insisted, ''we must know what the intentions
of the other side are, what Hanoi has in mind.''

 Chile Bjt NL 430
By BRUCE HANDLER
Associated Press Writer
    SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) - President Salvador Allende's leftist
government and leaders of striking labor groups continued
negotiations this weekend in hope of ending walkouts, business
closures and food shortages that have plagued Chile for nearly a
month.
Both sides were optimistic that a solution could be found
by Monday.
    ''We should have an answer, possibly today, and we'll be
most happy to talk things over,'' Leon Vilarin, spokesman
for the strikers' unified labor command, said Saturday.
    The key man in the give-and-take was Chile's new interior
minister, Gen. Carlos Prats. Allende, a Marxist-Socialist,
named the nonpartisan former army commander to the Cabinet
Thursday night.
    Labor leaders who earlier had maintained the government as
being ''intransigent'' in not accepting strikers' demands changed
their tune as soon as Prats took the job.
    ''I think the new Cabinet is doing well,'' said Rafael Cumsille,
president of Chile's Small Business Confederation.
    The strikers - truckers, shop owners, doctors, lawyers, engineers,
white collar workers, students, small farmers and even airline
pilots - are opposed to Allende's rapid drive to socialize this
South American nation of 10 million residents.
    ''I think the strike will end by Monday,'' the president
told well wishers Friday night in a courtyard inside La Moneda
Palace, Chile's White House. ''It must end because of the
tremendous harm it has done to Chile!''
    Surrounded by an overwhelmingly progovernment crowd, Allende
labeled the work stoppages ''a pseudo strike . . . a political
strike.''
    Friday marked Allende's second anniversary in office. But
because of a state of emergency in 20 of Chile's 25 provinces,
ordered because of the strike and subsequent street fighting
and occasional bombings, there were no parades or celebrations.
    ''I am the first one who must obey the emergency decrees,''
Allende said. ''Therefore, there cannot be any public acts.''
    Soldiers in the southern city of Temuco shot and killed a
government employed truck driver Friday night when he failed
to stop, as ordered, after the midnight curfew. Eduardo Jara,
23, was the fourth victim of postcurfew run-ins with military
authorities since Chile's current troubles began Oct. 10.
    In San Bernardo, a working-class suburb of Santiago, Soldiers
shot Yolanda Munoz, 28, in the back when she did not stop
for an after-curfew check. Seriously wounded, Miss Munoz told
newsmen she thought the people following her were muggers - not
soldiers.
    In lieu of parades, pro-Allende organizations planned a day
of ''voluntary work'' Saturday to celebrate the government
anniversary.A group of Santiago phone company workers belonging
to the Communist party helped nearby farmers plant melons,
for example.

Fragging Trial Bjt 420 Two Takes Total 840
By WILLIAM HELTON
Associated Press Writer
    FT. ORD, Calif. (AP) - A military jury of seven white officers
is expected to decide this week the fate of a black soldier
accused of murder in a Vietnam ''fragging'' incident that
killed two young Army lieutenants.
    Although there have been numerous fragging incidents in the
war - 96 reported in 1969 and 209 in 1970, resulting in 101
deaths - the fragging court-martial of Pvt. Billy D. Smith is
the first to be conducted in the United States.
    It also has provided a focus on issues that have haunted America's
involvement in the Vietnam war - racism, antiwar feelings among some
troops and the use of drugs.
    The trial has been protested by the Vietnam Veterans Against the
War and other groups. ''Under the Uniform Military Code of Justice,
you're guilty until proven innocent and if you're black, you're
automatically guilty,'' Black Panther minister of education
Masai Hewitt told one rally.
    Smith, a 24-year-old mustachioed, soft-spoken black from the
Watts area of Los Angeles, is charged with killing 1st Lts. Thomas
Dellwo of Choteau, Mont., and Richard Harlan of Dallas, Tex.
    Both died shortly after midnight March 15, 1971, at the Bien
Hoa Army base near Saigon, when a fragmentation grenade rolled
into their quarters and exploded. A third officer, Peter B.
Hoggins, 25, of Harrison, N.J., was injured.
    The Army contends that Smith, who was arrested within two
hours after the explosion, rolled the grenade into the building
hoping to kill his commanding officer, Capt. Randall L. Rigby,
and 1st Sgt. Billie E. Willis. Neither Rigby, who was described by
Smith as prejudiced, nor Willis was present.
    In addition to murder, Smith is charged with attempted murder
and with resisting arrest.
    Following the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling on captial
punishment, military judge Col. Rawls H. Frazier has ruled that
Smith cannot receive the death penalty. But a guilty verdict could
mean life imprisonment for Smith, a former bus driver, car salesman
and machinist who, according to his lawyers, was drafted reluctantly
into the Army in 1969.
    Smith, testifying as the final defense witness Wednesday,
denied any guilt on his part. Instead, he told the court he
was smoking marijuana with two other blacks when he heard
the explosion in which the officers died.
    ''I got rid of my marijuana and joined formation,'' Smith
said when asked about his reaction.
    Another soldier, Henry McClay, 22, of Chicago, corroborated
the testimony. ''I was smoking dope with him,'' McClay said.
''I was in the bunker getting high when the explosion went off.''

    The prosecution contended that Smith was arrested after Bradley
W. Curtis, 20, of Thousand Oaks, Calif., saw someone resembling
Smith running from the explosion.
    But under questioning by defense attorney Luke McKissack, Curtis
said he ''couldn't recognize the person clearly,'' and that he was
''reading and smoking heroin . . . doing smack'' at the time.
    The Army has based its case on two main contentions - that
arresting officers found a grenade pin on Smith matching a
grenade lever found near the scene of the explosion, and that
Smith hated Rigby and Willis enough to try to kill them.
    In turn, the defense brought in witnesses to show that resentment
against Rigby and Willis was widespread among the troops.
    ''People would talk about fragging all the time, anytime''
said Spec. 4 Carl W. McClung, 23, of Tyler, Tex. McClung testified
that Smith had asked him where he could obtain a fragmentation
grenade, an accusation later denied by Smith.
    One witness testified he had heard Smith say he ''wouldn't
mind'' fragging his commanding officer but said Smith probably
didn't mean it. ''It was common for enlisted men to talk this
way,'' said Darius E. Headen, 21, of Greensboro, N.C.
    When he took the stand, Smith said he had several encounters
with Rigby ''over some minor infractions including possession
of marijuana and failing to make a troop movement.''
    Asked by Army prosecutor Craig Casey if Rigby had a reputation for
being prejudiced against blacks, Smith replied, ''Yes, depending on
his mood.'' But asked if he heared anyone seriously threaten to
kill Rigby, Smith said, ''No one hated him enough to my knowledge.''
    The defense presented three witnesses who disputed prosecution
contentions that the grenade pin allegedly found on Smith
matched the safety lever found near the scene. ''I could take
two different pins from different parts of the world and make
a better match,'' said Lindberg Miller of the Institute of
Forensic Science.
    But WO Otis Hensley Jr. of the Army Crime Laboratory, Ft.
Gordon, Ga., stuck with his testimony linking the grenade
pin with the grenade level.
    The prosecution also called a witness who shared a cell with
Smith in Vietnam and testified that he overhead Smith tell
another prisoner he had killed two Army lieutenants.
    Samuel Bailey Jr., a janitor from Philadelphia, said another
prisoner asked if he had ''done it,'' and Smith answered, ''Yes.''
Under cross-examination Bailey admitted receiving three undesirable
discharges and being arrested twice on heroin charges.

 China policy bjt 470 Two Takes total 820
By ARTHUR L. GAVSHON
Associated Press Writer
    PEKING (AP) - China today is winning new friends and influencing
more people abroad with the dual aim of smashing the Soviet-American
superpower syndrome and thwarting any Kremlin dreams of conquest.
    Peking's leaders consider, after years of isolated contemplation,
that the process of restricturing the world's power system
requires them to work closely with Japan and Western Europe.
As they see it, too, the sympathetic backing of Third World
countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America would help.
    This grand design of a multipolar world dominating China's
developing foreign policy therefore envisions:
    -Functional Chinese-Japanese cooperation and understandings
to counterbalance the supremacy of the superpowers in the Far
East.
    -Functional Chinese-West European cooperation and understandings
to counterbalance the supremacy of the superpowers in Europe.
    None of these objectives figure in the published works of
Chairman Mao Tse-tung. They do, nevertheless, emerge in
conversations with responsible Chinese authorities who these days
seem readier than at any time since the Communist takeover of power
in 1949 to discuss their woes and worries, their wants and wishes
with newfound friends from the West.
    It is clear from days of intensive talks in Peking that the
new diplomatic offensive fashioned by the Chinese is in full
flight.
    The evidence includes:
    -A normalization of relations with Japan, coupled with a big
push for ever greater trade. In the view of some Chinese experts,
the significance of this development, ending 78 years of hostility,
transcends even President Nixon's journey to Peking. At the
same time they dismiss, almost pityingly, the idea that this
could lead to a Chinese-Japanese power bloc in its own right.
    -A normalization of relations with seven of the nine members
of the bigger Common Market and with other key nations of
non-Communist Europe. In this sector, Chinese authorities
seem to be giving a special place to Britain, believing the
British share their skepticism toward the purposes that lie
behind Russia's talk of East-West accommodation in Europe.
Beware, Deputy Foreign Minister Chiao Kuan-hua warned the United
Nations in New York recently, lest Moscow's project for a
pan-European security conference does not turn into ''an insecurity
conference.''
    To the Chinese striving to transform their ''economically
backward'' land - Chiao's words - into a thriving, industrialized
state in tune with the 20th century, the dominance of the
Americans and the Russians they have endured and still are
enduring.
    First, as they put it, China was contained and encircled
since 1949 by successive American administrations unable to
come to terms with any form of communisms.
    Then, again as they argue it, China has had to face the menace
of a Soviet invasion from the north and to them that threat
today is so great that it precedes any danger they profess
to detect from America.
    It is this almost obsessive preoccupation with the peril of
some swift and sudden Soviet nuclear strike that is impelling
the Chinese into the search for a new world power system.

    Idealn five principles providing for:
    -Mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity.
    -Nonaggression.
    -Noninterference in the internal affairs of other countries.
    -Equality between all states big and small.
    -Peaceful coexistence.
    There are, of course, quite a few countries, such as India
and Russia, which would argue that Peking does not not practice
the principles it preaches.
    Equally, the Chinese insist the superpowers and their friends,
by bullying and subversion and intervention, subvert those
principles. They cite the American role in Vietnam, Russia's
invasion of Czechoslovakia, the dismemberment of Pakistan.
    And so, from the starting point of the five principles, the
Chinese are arguing that several things follow.
    They say they do not try to export revolutions, for instance.
Some critics might retort they tried, for a time in Africa,
but failed.
    They insist they are four-square behind the North Vietnamese
and Viet Cong on the battlefield and off it. But they do not
especially want a role in peacemaking or peacekeeping, believing
it is up to the Vietnamese, Laotians, and Cambodians to settle
their own affairs themselves.
    The Chinese claim they vetoed the admission of Bangladesh
into the United Nations not because they really have anything
against the East Bengali people but because Russia cornered
them into doing it. If only India and Bangladesh would move
toward meeting the Pakistanis - 'our good friends - the situation
would soon be settled. For that to happen, the Chinese say,
Pakistani war prisoners should be released and India should
respect U.N. resolutions on Kashmir.
    To questioners who remind their Chinese hosts how all this
sort of reasonable sounding talk squares with other Maoist
teachings - such as: ''Power grows out of the barrel of a
gun'' -  the response is standard: that is the philosophy of
revolution as they experienced it.
    In other words, a truism for others to take or leave.
    ''It's not relevant to our foreign policy,'' one Chinese
observed.

Riding High Bjt 350
With Wirephoto MH2
    WINTER BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Sharon Steele, a petite blonde, says she
has developed a healthy set of muscles hauling Florida fruit to
market in New York behind the wheel of a 73,000-pound truck.
    Miss Steele, 21, and her father, William, take 33 hours to drive
their 1956 semirig from Florida's citrus belt along the East Coast
to New York.
    ''I used to drive timidly in the heavy traffic of New Jersey
and New York,'' Miss Steele said. ''But my father told me
I had to learn to drive aggressively like the rest of the
folks in those Northern cities. So now I do.''
    Miss Steele, barely five feet tall and weighing 125 pounds, says
she has to ''sort of stretch'' to reach the pedals on the floor
board of the truck.
    Just handling the steering wheel and changing tires has helped
develop muscles in her arms, she says.
    As for Steele, he finds advantages in having a girl as his driving
mate.
    Once when they had a flat tire at a truck stop, he says, ''about
eight or nine truck drivers crowded around to help change the
tire. So I just stood off in the shadows and watched.'' 
    One time in Virginia, Miss Steele said, she had a blowout but
''fortunately I was only doing 40 miles per hour so I was
able to keep it under control.''
    They were robbed once in Philadelphia, and another time two men
jumped their rig and flung open the rear doors. Steele said they
fled as he jumped out of the cab with a gun in his hand.
    Miss Steele said she first drove the truck when she was 13 and had
to quickly take the wheel when her father became ill on a trip. 
    She got her operator's license at 16 and says the day she went to
get her chauffeur's license the state trooper refused to get in
the cab with her.
    ''He said he wasn't going to climb in that thing with
me behind the wheel, and he handed me the license.''
    During the winter months, when they are not hauling citrus
from Florida, Miss Steele and her father live in Delaware.

    SEOUL (AP) - North and South Korea took a long step toward
reconciliation Saturday with an agreement for joint projects
and a ban on the hostile propaganda that has inflamed their
relations for a quarter of a century.
    The new steps were announced by representatives of the two
Koreas after their third conference since the July 4 start
toward a declared goal of peaceful reunification.
    A joint statement from Pyongyang, capital of Communist North
Korea, said the meeting was held in an earnest and brotherly
atmosphere with a strong desire for improved relations and
early reunification.
    The statement followed three days of talks and said agreement
was reached to stop hostile propaganda against each other
by radio, loudspeakers along the border and leaflets.
    The two sides also reported agreement on wide-ranging political,
economic and cultural exchanges and consultation in international
matters.
    Lee Hu-rak, head of the South Korean Central Intelligence
Agency, stopped off in Panmunjom on his way back to Seoul
and said the program could cover joint fishery and tourist
development and joint teams in international sports competition.
    The two sides further agreed to avoid military confrontation
and defined the composition and work of the coordinating committee
headed by Lee and Kim Young-joo, younger brother of North
Korean Premier Kim Il-sung.
    The committee is to consist of five members from each side,
including a cochairman and ''executive committeeman.'' All
committee members are to rank higher than deputy minister
in their respective governments.
    The full committee is to meet every two or three months and
''executive committeeman'' meetings are to be convened monthly.
    The next committee meeting was scheduled for Nov. 30 in Seoul,
continuing the pattern of alternating meetings between the
capitals of the two Koreas.
    The Pyongyang meeting opened Thursday and was originally
scheduled to last only one day. It was extended through Friday
and a final session was held early Saturday to approve wording
of the joint announcement.
    In addition to the committee sessions, Lee said he met for
more than four hours with Premier Kim for an
exchange of views on a wide range of subjects. He declined
to disclose the topics, but said the talk was held in a warm
stmosphere.

 Harris Poll 110
    NEW YORK (AP) - The Harris Poll said Saturday that Americans,
49 to 42 per cent, believe President Nixon ''has kept his
pledge to end U.S. involvement in the Vietnam war.''
    Louis Harris, said 1,520 likely voters were polled face to
face last Tuesday.
    He noted that the new figures contrast with a previous poll,
taken in mid-October, which showed that voters, 52 to 38 per
cent, did not believe Nixon had kept his 1968 pledge. Terms
of a draft peace between Washington and Hanoi were announced Oct
19.
    The poll, said Americans 61 to 20 per cent, believed that
if ''the final peace agreement is not signed until after the
election, Nixon will go ahead and abide by the terms as they
have been described by Dr. Henry Kissinger.''
    It said Americans felt, 49 to 37 per cent, that Nixon could
not have obtained the same terms four years ago.

 Love Thine Enemy 260 3 takes
    Editor's Note - Yaaqov Rothblitt, a young Israeli who was
seriously wounded in the 1967 Middle East war, is visiting
the United States as a correspondent for the Israeli newspaper
Haaretz. He filed the following story to his newspaper.
    ---
    JERUSALEM (AP) - It was another dull, routine meeting of
the U.N. committee on racism, human rights and so forth. The
Dutch delegate was grinding out his speech when our man at
the United Nations and our correspondent - that is, me - marched
in and sat down.
    The bored Costa Rican delegate cleaned his fingernails. Others
were writing letters home. Within five minutes I was yawning.
    And then she came in.
    She was young and good-looking, wearing a red dress that
exposed nice knees and long legs. She made her way to her
desk and sat down near our correspondent, pulled out some
papers and spread them out . . . I watched with great interest.
The little name-plaque on her desk said: ''The Arab Republic
of . . .''
    ''Is that their representative?'' I asked, nudging our man.
    ''Probably one of their secretaries,'' he said.
    ''Do you have any contact with them?'' I asked. ''After all,
you work in the same place.''
    ''Oh no, said our man severely, almost offended. ''Nothing
at all.''
    ''Do you mind if I make contact?'' I asked.
    ''Go ahead,'' said our man. ''She's just a secretary. She
won't talk to you.''
    I tapped her shoulder. She turned and smiled.
    ''I'd like to talk to you,'' I said without getting into
details. ''How about a cup of coffee in the cafeteria?''

    She looked at me hesitantly and replied in the tone of a
girl who has to finish homework before going out to play:
''I'd like to, but now its my turn to speak. In 15 minutes,
okay?''
    The Dutch delegate finished his speech and my little girl
in red took the floor. She sipped a little water and began
in a shy, excited voice: ''Mr. Chairman, my government . . .
bla bla bla.''
    I listened, enchanted. I was probably the only one in the
hall paying the slightest attention. The other delegates went
on writing home, while my girl went on reading from her papers
in fluent, Arabic-accented English.
    She got around to Israel very fast, after a few opening lines
about Rhodesia and South Africa, and boy, did she let us have
it. She compared us Israelis with every villain in history.
At home, our newspapers would have called it ''a diatribe.''
Our man looked at me triumphantly and whispered: ''Well, really,
who can one talk peace with?''
    I sat entranced. She was . . . doing her utmost to read clearly
and emotionally the language that was alien to her. Here and
there she got confused over big words, missed a comma or pushed
a curl from her face . . . and no-one but our correspondent
paid the slightest attention to her honest efforts.
    She finished . . . met my glance, and we stepped outside.
    ''What did you want to discuss?'' she asked.
    ''Everything,'' I replied. ''Was that your first speech?''
    ''My second,'' she giggled nervously. ''How was it?''
    ''Marvelous,'' I said. ''Absolutely marvelous.''
    ''Really?'' she laughed. ''Did you really think so?'' She
was charming.
    ''Honestly,'' I said. ''Congratulations.''

very much to talk to you.''
    ''Israeli?'' she asked, disbelievingly. But she accepted my
invitation to coffee.
    She was so nice. On the way to the cafeteria she apologized
for her speech. She assured me she didn't mean all those terrible
things, but that's how it is . . . politics. She represented
a government. Surely I knew how it is. I said I knew exactly
and that it was quite all right with me.
    We sat in the cafeteria of the delegates of the world . . .
two youngsters from the Middle East meeting at the United
Nations, N.Y. Excited as children, thirsty to tell, thirstier
to listen. Her ignorance about Israel astounded me. My ignorance
about the Arabs astounded her.
    She asked me if there was any truth in her speech. I asked
her how she joined the delegation. I have difficulty remembering
the questions and answers. It was my first encounter with
a young female ''enemy,'' her first with a male ''enemy,'' and most
of all it was like love at first glance. . .
    We sat for an hour - one of the most encouraging, enchanting
hours I can remember . . . We talked mostly politics, and, without
anyone having to surrender, degrade their honor or relinquish
their principles. We could have signed a secure and durable
peace on the napkin, if only it were up to us . . .
    She knew I worked for an Israeli newspaper and wanted to
know what I would write. I promised not to mention her name
or delegation . . .
    The next day we talked on the phone. Someone from her delegation
had found out I was Israeli, and she had been forbidden to
meet me.
    But I'm not giving up.
    I'm not Moshe Dayan who's been waiting five years for a phone
call from the Arab leaders.
    When I want something, I'm not ashamed to phone and ask for
it.

 Hanrahan-Carey Bjt 490
By JOSEPH R. TYBOR
Associated Press Writer
    CHICAGO (AP) - The state's attorney's job, considered critical to
the smooth running of Mayor Richard J. Daley's Democratic
organization in Cook County, is up for grabs in Tuesday's election.
    The contestants are Democratic incumbent Edward V. Hanrahan, who
bills himself as a law and order candidate, and Republican
challenger Bernard C. Carey, who claims Hanrahan has failed to
halt crime in the county.
    The usually reliable Chicago Sun-Times straw poll gives Carey a
slight edge over Hanrahan and rates the race a tossup.
    Political observers, however, concede Hanrahan a slight lead,
primarily because of his recent acquittal on charges stemming
from a 1969 raid in which two Black Panthers were slain and
his intense popularity with the hundreds of Daley precinct workers.
    ''It's a question of survival - of saving the life of the
organization,'' one assistant precinct captain said.
    The state's attorney is similar to the district attorney elsewhere
and as the chief prosecutor for Cook County has broad investigatory
powers. A Republican in the post almost surely would pose unwelcome
opposition for Daley's organization.
    The recent efforts of Republican-appointed federal prosecutor,
James R. Thompson, secured alleged vote-fraud indictments against
75 persons and other indictments against policemen and top
Democratic politicians.
    Hanrahan, 51, a former U.S. attorney, is something of a folk hero
to party regulars and white ethnic groups attracted by his law and
order rhetoric.
    He was raised in the organization under Daley's tutelage and
observers view him as a possible successor to the mayor.
    Hanrahan was dumped by the regular Democrats while under indictment
in the Panther case but was reinstated in official party favor
after an overwhelming primary victory in March.
    He captivates audiences with an urgent call for a return
to old virtues and discipline and scathing criticism of the
press he says is irresponsible and out ''to get'' him.
    Carey, 37, was an FBI agent for five years and is former
undersheriff of Cost the 1970 election for sheriff
by 10,000 votes.
    Carey was instrumental in establishing the Illinois Bureau of
Investigation - an agency often described as the mini-FBI. Hanrahan,
however, attacks Carey's lack of experience as a practicing lawyer.
    Carey has been endorsed by the five daily Chicago newspapers
and the Chicago Bar Association which said Hanrahan is unfit
for the office because of what it called an unstable temperament.
    ''I'm fighting a phony, arrogant martyr whose bluster belies
his record,'' Carey said recently. ''His bungling of the Panther
raid is only a part of his over-all dismal record and his acquittal
does not alter the facts in any way. He is inept.''
    Carey says he is banking victory, in part, on the coattails
of President Nixon. Hanrahan is relying on final campaign blitzing
efforts in the closing days of the campaign by every
regular-organization Democrat from Daley on down.

 Cease-Fire in Danger? Bjt 250 Two Takes, Total 630
An AP News Analysis
By WILLIAM L. RYAN
AP Special Correspondent
    Hopes for an Indochina cease-fire depend upon bridging a wide
chasm of noncomprehension between the Communists and the United
States.
    North Vietnam - echoed by China and the Soviet Union - insists
that Uncle Sam is an incorrigible colonialist-imperialist
and that this is why progress toward signing a cease-fire has
been stalled.
    If Uncle Sam were that, he would be the world's most inept.
The Communist countries themselves could spot him cards and
spades in that department.
    North Vietnam, China and Russia just cannot understand why
the Americans should not be able to handle Nguyen Van Thieu.
After all, said Hanoi radio, the Americans made Thieu president
of South Vietnam and he ''would not take a single decision''
without U.S. permission.
    But the Americans have demonstrated many times that they
don't rate when it comes to handling client states. In a case
like Thieu's any Communist regime would know precisely what
to do, and do it. In the case of the Americans, though, it
seemed to become a case of ''well, back to the old drawing
board.''
    Hanoi handled its ally. There were aspects in the draft cease-fire
that the Viet Cong's provisional revolutionary government
could not have welcomed. But the first sign of disagreement
came only after the schedule of the draft agreement was stalled.
Then the Viet Cong in Paris resurrected its demand that all
U.S. military installations in South Vietnam be dismantled.
There had been no mention of that in the text of the draft
as broadcast by Hanoi.

 UNDATED Cease-Fire Bjt take 2: Hanoi. 340

    Whatever their differences with and apprehensions about the
North might be, the Viet Cong recognized that Hanoi was their
only source of support and never openly disagreed with their
sponsors.
    The Communists see Thieu as purely and simply a puppet. They
equate the other side's situation with their own and find
it incredible that Thieu would dare disagree with the Americans.
Thus, they scent trickery.
    ''The U.S. cheating has created a very serious situation,
threatened the signing of the agreement and reduced the possibility
of restoring peace to Vietnam,'' said the official Communist
newspaper Nhan Dan.
    ''Thieu will certainly be toppled,'' it went on. ''The urban
compatriots of all walks of life and the forces opposing Thieu
are stepping up their coalition action to get rid of him and
to smash the obstacle on the path t to peace and national
concord.''
    That, in fact is probably what worries Thieu - that ''coalition''
efforts might spell his end. He balks at the agreement possibly
because he lacks confidence that his regime can hang on as
just one segment of a three-part interim coalition in advance
of elections.
    From here on, the hypothesis - and it is only hypothesis - might
go thus:
    The United States, it seems appaent enough, is anxious to
leave Thieu and his regime to their own devices, if there
was no imminent danger that it would cave in.
    If, after the cease-fire agreement was worked out with Hanoi,
it should appear that the Saigon regime remained unready to
defend itself, it would have to be provided with muscle, despite
all that was given it up to this time.
    Under the agreement hammered out by North Vietnam and Henry
A. Kissinger, the signing was to have been Oct. 31. Just 24
hours later the United States would have had to halt all bombing
and acts of war, and after 60 days no more war materiel could
be introduced into South Vietnam.
    The problem on the American side may have been mostly logistics.
It takes time to shift gears, time to introduce what Thieu
might need in terms of military insurance. For example, big
troop transports for his forces' use didnt' arrive until Nov.
1, and on Nov. 3 the Pentagon disclosed a hurry-up call on
South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand to lend South Vietnam some
F5 Freedom fighter planes.
    The Americans have been rushing other equipment to South
Vietnam including artillery and armored equipment. It takes
time.
    Had the agreement been signed Oct. 31 as Hanoi demanded,
the North Vietnamese could have used the 60 days to truck
tons of materiel into the South for its forces with no fear
of interdiction. The end of the U.S. mining of North Vietnam's
waters would mean easy replacement.

 Indochina-at-a-Glance 200
    By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    SAIGON: The Viet Cong and North Vietnamese accused the Nixon
administration of trying to undermine the draft peace agreement by
rushing military supplies to South Vietnam and setting up a
civilian advisory corps to replace American troops.

    GREENSBORO, N.C.: Presidential adviser Henry A. Kissinger said he
was confident a cease-fire for all of Indochina ''will emerge in
a series of steps'' and dismissed as nonsense the charge that the
United States was delaying settlement to build up the South
Vietnamese military.

    PARIS: A source close to the South Vietnamese delegation at the
Paris peace talks said negotiations now are going on behind the
scenes through third countries to try to clarify points in the
draft agreement.

    WASHINGTON: Pentagon sources reported the North Vietnamese command
has sent several thousand additional troops into South Vietnam in
recent days.

    SAIGON: U.S. B52 bombers dumped nearly 100 tons of explosives in
the southern panhandle of North Vietnam in an effort to smash enemy
troops and supplies in a position to move south before a
cease-fire.

into the station house, leveling the structure.
    Two persons inside the building received slight injuries. A third
person jumped to safety through a window just before the building
collapsed around him.
    ''It knocked down the whole building,'' said David Weinreb, a
ticket seller for the Penn Central Railroad, which shares
the Elizabeth station with the Jersey Central Railroad.
    ''I felt this rumbling and then I saw the cars falling sideways
into the Jersey Central station,'' he said. ''If it had been a

 QE2 NL (Precede Southampton day) 370
    PARIS (AP) - American tourists temporarily stranded in Paris
by delays to the British liner Queen Elizabeth 2 complained
Saturday that the ship's owners, the Cunard Line, had given
them a ''virtual ultimatum'' - fly home Sunday or they were
on their own in Europe.
    Edward Landis of Springfield, Mass., acting as spokesman
for a tour group of nearly 50 persons, said some of his group
were unable or unwilling to fly to the United States. He reported
that Cunard had informed their tour manager hotel accommodation
was being provided only until Monday morning.
    ''No one can guarantee us when the ship will sail and there
is no assurance that there will in fact be cabins for us,''
Landis added.
    He said no Paris representative of Cunard would talk directly
to members of the group and they were unable to get any specific
information about the nature of the delay.
    A Cunard spokesman in Southampton said the QE2 was delayed
because of faulty wiring and equipment in newly refitted kitchens
and restaurants. He said the ship might not sail until Wednesday
or Thursday and that a decision might be made Monday as to whether
it would make its scheduled stop at the French port of Cherbourg.
    Between 100 and 150 tourists, mostly Americans, were informed
when they arrived at a Paris railroad station to catch the
Saturday afternoon boat train to Cherbourg that the voyage
was delayed. Some are believed to have accepted Cunard's offer
of flights back to the United States and to have left already.
    One other tour party in Paris reported difficulties in getting
firm information on whether they would be able to get aboard
the QE2 if she finally did make the Cherbourg stop. It also
included persons unwilling to fly home.
    Other tourists said they had been offered the possibility
to joining the Italian liner Michelangelo at the Riviera port
of Cannes on Nov. 13, but were told by Cunard that their expenses
between Monday morning and boarding the vessel, and any difference
between the cost of the QE2 passage and that of the longer
Michelangelo cruise, would be their own responsibility.
    No officials of the French Transatlantic Line, which handles
Cunard affairs in France, were available for comment.

 Germanys NL 400 Two Takes Total 600
    BERLIN (AP) - Break-throughs were made Saturday in parallel
East-West talks on divided Germany and a four power communique
said Big Four envoys will hold a final session Sunday.
    The communique said: ''Considerable progress was made in
the meeting, and the ambassadors agreed that a final session
would be held at 1300GMT (8 a.m. EST), Sunday, Nov. 5.''
    The envoys of the United States, Britain and France to West
Germany and the Soviet ambassador to East Germany are discussing
particularly procedures for entry into the United Nations
by both East and West Germany.
    The Western aim is to safeguard four power rights and
responsibilities in Germany.
    As they emerged from their meeting, the second of the day,
all four ambassadors made optimistic comments.
    Michail Yefremov, Soviet envoy to East Germany and chairman
for the day, spoke to newsmen for the first time in two weeks
of four power talks, saying the single word: ''Positive.''
    Sir Nicholas Henderson of Britain described the meetings
as ''a good weekend's work.''
    The ambassadors' talks parallel those between East and West
Germany in which negotiators for both sides reported progress
toward a basic agreement and an end to long-standing hostile
relations.
    West German television reported that the four power ambassadors
were working on a statement that would comprise only two sentences.
The television account also said East-West German negotiators
were close to final agreement and that a solution had been
found for the West German demands to represent West Berliners.
There was no elaboration.
    West Germany's ties to West Berlin have been disputed by
the Communist side. The western Big Three are reliably understood
to have been concerned about their rights and responsibilities,
especially in Berlin, should East Germany claim full sovereignty
after it enters the United Nations.
    Chancellor Willy Brandt, campaigning in West Germany, told
newsmen ''again remarkable progress'' had been made in the
Berlin talks by State Secretary Egon Bahr and East German
State Secretary Michael Kohl.
    Bahr and Kohl also spoke of progress following their Saturday
session and the word was used for the first time in the joint
communique.

    Later, Cunard said it had sent telegrams that stopped 600

traveling to Southampton to board the 65,000-ton liner.
    But many arrived without receiving word of the delay. All
passengers were offered flights to the United States at Cunard's
expense, and about 200 were reported to have accepted the
offer rather than wait until the ship is ready to sail.
    Cunard Chairman Victor Matthews estimated the cost of the
delay at about $240,000. He called it a disaster ''because
it means that the company has let down passengers.''
    Matthews said he wanted the QE2 ready to leave for New York

    JERUSALEM (AP) - In a move likely to cement even further Israel's
annexation of Arab East Jerusalem, the city's overloaded Arab
electricity company announced Saturday it will start
buying Israeli current.
    The decision came after the Jordan Arab Electricity Co. was
unable to satisfy needs of its consumers in East Jerusalem
and surrounding towns.
    Israel captured the Arab sector of Jerusalem from Jordan
in the 1967 Mideast war and annexed it. Since then it has
worked to make the two sectors one Israeli-dominated city
despite U.N., American and Arab protests.
    An Arab company spokesman said the deal was reached in negotiations
with the Israel Electric Corp. on Friday. It stipulates that the
Arab firm will maintain its name and sovereignty.
    Until now the Jordan company has refused to link up with
the Israeli corporation because it did not recognize Jewish
rule of East Jerusalem.
    The linkup can be regarded as politically important, but
government officials declined to comment on this. They said the
interconnection, common in Europe, ''was a practical necessity.''
    In recent weeks, 100,000 Arabs have suffered power failures
because the company's two generators are old and provide
only 17 megawatts daily.
    Another clause of the agreement says the Arab company may
sell power to the Israeli firm, even in Jewish Jerusalem,
if it improves its facilities.
    Only a few villages in occupied Jordan have agreed so far
to ignore politics and link up with the Israeli power grid.

    UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) - The United States proposed Saturday
that the U.N. General Assembly call for further efforts to
have Israel either give money or a home to 1 1/2 million Palestine
Arab refugees.
    The Arabs lost their homeland with the creation of Israel
in 1948. Israel has barred all but a small number of them
from returning on grounds that they would be security risks.
    The U.S. resolution was presented for consideration in the
assembly's 132-nation special political committee. The wording
was similar to that of other such U.S. resolutions put through
the assembly annually for more than 12 years.
    The proposal noted ''with deep regret that repatriation or
compensation of the refugees'' had not been accomplished. Israel's
occasional offers of compensation have not been accepted, apparently
because many of the refugees do not want to bargain away their
claimed right to return.

Canada 400 two takes total 780
An AP News Analysis
By WILLIAM L. RYAN
AP Special Correspondent
    A socialist leader who has scornfully attacked Pierre Elliott
Trudeau's policies holds the power now to determine whether and
when Canada's Liberal prime minister should be tossed out of office.
    David Lewis and his New Democratic party socialists pose
big pstinging rebuke from the
voters in last Monday's election reflected dissatisfaction with his
performance over four years while he had a comfortable House of
Commons majority.
    But if he is to attack unemployment, for example, he must worry
about Lewis' attitude toward such proposed measures as tax
incentives to corporations. In theorate welfare bums'' had far too much special treatment
already.
    If Trudeau wants to continue treading warily on the issue
of U.S. ownership of Canadian resources and industries, he
must be mindful of Lewis' demand for ''much more effective
legislation to limit foreign ownership.''
    Trudeau would be in trouble quickly except for one thing: money.
Lewis may give the Liberal government a fair amount of time before
using a newly-won balance of power to bring it down.
    The fall of the government would require another election,
and election campaigns are expensive.
    It would seem that Canada is due to rock along uncertaequal number of seats.
    Lewis' NDP emerged from the election with 30 seats, which is only
11 per cent of the House membership of 264. He got less than a
fifth of the popular vote. But all the same he now holds the
balance of power without which neither big party could govern.
Trudeau has decided to try governing with Lewis' sufferance.
    In the campaign the socialists couldn't spend the way the
big parties did, but they managed a twin-engine turboprop
plane for Lewis. Looking like a rumpled and amiable farmer,
Lewis barnstormed across the country in an old-style campaign.
    Hatless, his gray hair blown crazily by the wind, Lewis
charged up to factory gates with old-fashioned man-to-man
haranguing against the corporations.
    It was popular in the prairies, where they don't trust city
slickers of any sort.

    Known for his ability in rough, tough debate, Lewis was most of
the time in complete charge of his temper. But he did explode once,
on one of those open-line telephone radio shows. A woman who called
noted his Polish birth and asked if he was Communist-inspired.
He abhorred communism, he snapped.
    ''In Europe, the Communist party is the weakest in countries
that are governned by socialists, and if you don't know that
and haven't been listening for the past 20 years,'' he growled,
''that's your problem, ma'am.''
    Lewis, 63, has been a socialist all his adult life. So are
his wife of 37 years, Sophie, and his two sons and two daughtres.
The left wing of his party, called the ''Waffles,'' grump
that he's not really socialist at all, but a sort of ''radish,''
red on the outside and white on the inside.
    He can sound socialist enough, however, to raise corporate hackles.
    A favorite anecdote about him concerns his application as
a young man for a Rhodes scholarship. One of the examiners,
the head of the Canadian Pacific Railway, asked Lewis what
he would do if he ever became prime minister of Canada.
    ''I'd nationalise the CPR, sir,'' he replied without hesitation.
He got the scholarship anyway and went to Oxford after graduation
from McGill University.
    The Canadian Pacific, incidentally, is still a private enterprise.
But the government controls the other transcontinental railway,
the Canadian National. Between them the provincial and federal
governments run a lot of businesses.
    Lewis' Jewish family emigrated to Canada with him in 1912. He
became a lawyer and made four unsuccessful tries at running for
the House of Commons before before finally being elected from a
Toronto district. He became the party's leader last April. His
leadership was largely credited with an NDP provincial victory - 
British Columbia got its first socialist government in August.
    ''The socialist hordes are at the gates,'' the opposition cried
during that campaign. The socialists cheerfully accepted the role
and began wearing buttons: ''I am a member of the socialist
hordes.''
    Before long, the hordes were inside the gates in a position
of power.

Common Market 320 Two Takes Total 490
By NEL SLIS
Associated Press Writer
    BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - Foreign ministers of the enlarged
Common Market open a debate Monday on the shape of their future
free trade area in the Mediterranean - a project that has President
Nixon's administration worried.
    The United States favors any trade help that the more prosperous
Europeans can give the poorer countries to the south - from Greece
to Morocco - such as reduced tariffs on their exports. But it is
against the poor countries granting similar concessions
to the Europeans.
    In the U.S. view, that amounts to discrimination against U.S.
exports and makes it harder for the President to get a broad
mandate from Congress for the big international trade
talks scheduled for 1973.
    In a busy week for the Common Market, there will also be a meeting
Monday and Tuesday of transport ministers. They will talk about how
much weight heavy trucks should be allowed to carry, so as to limit
the chances of their shaking both roads and ancient buildings.
    On Thursday ministers of social affairs will discuss how
best to spend their new social fund. Much of the money is
expected to go for retraining workers from declining trades.
    The Mediterranean plan is for the Common Market countries
eventually to accept manufactured goods from the poorer countries
as freely as they take them from wealthier lands, despite the lower
production costs in the Mediterranean. There would be no import
quotas, only tariffs. That would mean stiffer competition for
industry in Britain, France and West Germany, which pay higher
wages.
    Eventually, too, the Common Market would make tariff concessions on
80 per cent of farm exports from the Mediterranean countries, and
give them financial and technical aid as well. This would mean more
competition for fruit and vegetable farms in France
and Italy, for example.

    In return, the poorer countries would lower their tariffs on
imports from central and northern Europe. This is the point at which
the United States raises the cry of unfair competition, though the
actual effect on trade has been small where the practice
already exists.
    The foreign ministers will also discuss what kind of free
trade agreement to offer Norway, which turned down membership
in the Common Market in a referendum in September.
    At a dinner Monday night the transport ministers of the old
Common Market will try to persuade Transport Minister John
Peyton of Britain and his colleagues from Denmark and Ireland
that 11 tons per axle weight is the right maximum for trucks.
The three countries want to keep it down to 10 1/2 tons.
    They will also talk about a fund for payments to skippers
on the Rhine and Moselle rivers during slack periods when
their barges are laid up. This requires negotiations with
Switzerland, which is not a Common Market member.

Chinese Physicians 440 Four takes Total 1,370
By ALTON BLAKESLEE
AP Science Editor
    NEW YORK (AP) - In China, ''the man once was considered to
be all of the sky. Now the woman is half the sky.''
    This is Dr. Lin Ch'iao-chih's way of saying ''women's lib''
has come to China, as one of the great social upheavals under
the People's Republic of China.
    Dr. Lin, 71, a gynecologist, diminutive, spry, grayhaired, almost
mischievous, was one of 12 Chinese physicians who last week
completed a three-week tour of the United States to learn
about American medicine.
    They did. But their American colleagues also learned about China's
approaches to and solutions for one great common problem - how
best to serve a people's health needs.
kmore about acupuncture, about Chinese methods of
birth control and about abbreviated training of new doctors to meet
the challenge of providing better health care in rural areas
where 80 to 85 per cent of China's 800 million people work and live.
    They found common cause, too, in personal friendship, with
strong emotion apparent in sincere banquet toasts exchanged
at journey's end in San Francisco last week.
    They laughed with and at each other, in repartee disclosing
a rivalry between surgeons and internists in both countries,
in Dr. Lin commenting that ''if men were more concerned about
birth control, the problem would be answered more easily.''
    Dr. Hsu Chia-yu, an internist and the group's only cigarette
smoker, might have been some American doctor when he said,
''I know smoking is not too good, but maybe it doesn't do
too much harm, either. Of course when I talk with my patients,
I advise them not to smoke.''
    And the lighter moments included Dr. Lin pointing her finger at a
tall security officer giving a ''let's go'' hand signal for the
delegation to leave a conference room, and saying ''Big Boss!''
    Day by day, weekends included, the delegation whipped along
a busy scheduled of learning about American techniques of
medicine and surgery and health care, of heart and cancer
research, at medical institutions and health centers in Washington,
New York, Boston, Chicago, Kansas City and San Francisco.
    The vistors were especially interested in cancer and heart
troubles, which have become primary killer diseases in China
as longevity has increased.
    They watched heart surgery at Montefiore Hospital in New
York bringing a new blood supply to a man's heart crippled
by a clogged artery, and talked at Stanford University Medical
Center in Palo Alto with three men who had received transplanted
hearts - both types of surgery not yet being performed in China.

    They said they were impressed with Stanford's great accelerators
producing pinpoint radiation to treat cancers; the use of
computers at Beth Israel Hospital in Boston to help diagnose
and prescribe treatments for diseases; an electronic device,
the Ophthalmatron, at Mr. Sinai Hospital in New York which
can automatically test human eyes for eyeglass prescriptions.
On hearing that the device cost $15,000, Dr. Wu Wei-jan, leader
of the delegation, remarked, ''That's not quite for us yet.''
    They went to a circus in Chicago and rode cable cars in San
Francisco. They ate hambrugers and hot dogs, and some liked them.
Twice they had Chinese food from American restuarants, and one
visitor said it was ''similar'' to that at home. Dr.
Li Yen-san, a cardiologist, summed up New York as ''many, many
cars, tall, tall buildings.''
    Usually wearing Mao tunics, but sometimes in western dress,
the visitors drew gazes from Americans. And the Chinese had
some impressions, too.
    By the time he reached Boston, Dr. Wu said he had three main
impressions: ''First, people seem to be eating something all the
time. Many are fat. There are too many cars, a lack for a chance for
exercise, especially in New York. And there must be mental stress.
You must be careful, otherwise you will get killed by an
automobile.''
    Everywhere, Americans inquired about acupunture, and 800
medical and dental students and doctors at the University
of Missouri in Kansas City were wowed by a Chinese movie showing
operations under acupunture, with one man having part of his
lung removed with the anesthesia consisting only of one needle
inserted into his arm, then twirled during the surgery. The
man was awake, smiling, and apparently not in pain.
    ''We haven't the least intention to try to popularize this
technique in the United States,'' Dr. Wu said. The technique doesn't
always work well, said Dr. Chou Kuan-han, 36, an anesthesiologist
from Peking.
    ''We consider it has a promising future prospect, but we
have a lot of arduous work to perfect it,'' and figure out
how it works, Dr. Chou added.
    Others said acupunture had been used successfully sometimes to
relieve the heart pain of angina pectoris, but that it ''is not
impressive'' against pain from cancer. It's not used for childbirth
because in China most babies are born through natural childbirth,
with excessive pain not expected if the woman has been properly
prepared.

    The Chinese doctors, the first to come here in 22 years, were
guests of the American Medical Association and the Institute of
Medicine in the National Academy of Sciences, a non-governmental
agency.
    ''The gate for friendly exchanges between us now is open,
and we have reason to believe they will expand,'' Dr. Wu said.
    Besides a small shower of gifts and mementoes, the Chinese took
home knowledge of ''a lot of good things,'' many of which could be
adapted to China's special conditions and needs, he added.
    China has 400,000 doctors, of all types, for 800 million
people, one per 2,000, while the United States has about the
same number for 200 million people.
    To meet the need for more doctors, Dr. Wu said, men and women
can win medical degrees 3 to 3 1/2 years after finishing high
school, compared with seven to eight years in this country.
Clinical training is stressed, with the idea that refresher
courses can be taken later. Some go on for training in research.
    Dr. Wu said this may be changed in time, for ''we've not
made a final settlement of the educational system yet.'' At
another point he said ''we've made great progress. But our
medical equipment is still inadequate.''
    Doctors are paid by the government, and their income can be a bit
higher than the average for other kinds of work, he said.
    More than 100,000 doctors and health workers have moved from
cities to the countryside, he continued.
    Asked at a news conference whether it was difficult to persuade
them to do so, Dr. Wu replied in Chinese. Dr. Hsu, who often acted
as interpreter, translated ''we cannot push them to rural areas.''
Dr. Wu, in his excellent English, interjected: ''push them by
force.''

    The push ''can only be done through education, so the doctor
considers the profit of all the people, not only his own.'' That,
Dr. Wu added, ''is easy to say, but not too easy to carry out.''
    ''It is not enough to say that the goal of medicine is to
serve people. It is to serve them whole-heartedly,'' he commented.
    While the ebullient Dr. Lin says the woman now is half the sky, the
visitors agreed women account not for half but about one-third of
all doctors serving civilians, and 15 per cent of doctors in the
military forces. And there is some discrimination, with fewer women
becoming surgeons, but also fewer men becoming gynecologists or
obstetricians.
    Ninety per cent of women want to work or study, Dr. Lin said,
and that is one reason for partial success so far in lowering
China's birth rate.
    The visitors, unfailingly courteous and smiling, ran an arduous
schedule, perhaps none individually more than Dr. Hsu who
spent hour after hour translating remarks larded with all
kinds of technical terms.
    Asked if this were not very fatiguing, Dr. Hsu said: ''When

there; and South Vietnam needs to have that kind of strength

    ''One of the major reasons that the public, I believe, has rejected

Soviet Jews 390 two takes total 850

    NORFOLK, Va. (AP)-Victor Fairmark was a physical chemist in Moscow
when he and his wife asked permission to emigrate to Israel, but
today, still in Russia, he cleans test tubes and pushes a broom.
    His face is permanently marred from beatings while under arrest
by Soviet police.
    Grigori Teitelbaum was once a well-to-do Soviet photographer.
Now, after applying three times for permission to leave Russia,
he lives only on a small pension. His son has been barred
from the university and will be forced to enter the army,
stalling any further efforts to leave for five years.
    Victor Fairmark and Grigori Teitelbaum are real names taken
from a list of 58 families who have given American Jews permission
to identify them in a last chance effort to secure their freedom,
according to Richard Krieger, who smuggled the list out of
Russia two weeks ago.
    Krieger, executive director of the United Jewish Federation here,
led a group of 12 American Jews to the Soviet Union in an effort to
contact Soviet Jews. The other 11 Americans are stopping over in
Israel en route to the United States.
    American Jews, he said in an interview here, plan to contact
U.S. congressmen in an effort to get the 58 families out of
Russia before the United States moves to grant the Soviet Union
''favored nation'' status to aid in trade between the two countries.
    Regardless of Soviet claims, he charged, the 58 families
are among thousands of Russian Jews undergoing daily persecution.
    Kreiger said he knows that his release of the list will permanently
bar him from re-entering the Soviet Union and that there could
be repercussions for the 58 families on the list.
    ''They just don't care,'' he said. ''This is their only hope.
They hope the world will become aware of their names and the
world will become concerned for them. They said their only
salvation is for the world to cry out and ask why they are
not permitted to come out and live as free people.''
    Along with the names, Krieger brought case histories of some
of the Soviet Jews listed, their stories scrawled in red ink
in a tiny memo book he said he smuggled out of Russia.
    As an example of what is happening to Soviet Jews who want
out of the country, he recounted the story of Fairmark, the
31-year-old chemist turned janitor.

presidential campaign to this sprawling Army base Saturday after the
U.S. Supreme Court denied a government application to keep the
former baby doctor and three other minor party candidates off the
post.
    He was joined at the outdoor rally by Linda Jenness, the Socialist
Workers party presidential candidate.
    The crowd was estimated at 150 persons - about 100 supporters who
arrived on chartered buses and about 50 newsmen.
    Newsmen said they saw only a handful of soldiers in the area.
    A post spokesman said it was a ''payday weekend'' and most of the
trainees had left the post for outside recreation. This was ''the
reason there's no one here,'' the spokesman said.
    Spock told the crowd, ''I was not born a radical, obviously my
clothes would tell you that, but I was radicalized by the war in
Vietnam.''
    He added, ''It took something like the war to lift the blinders
from my eyes. I now see that our government takes on only small
defenseless nations.'' He cited the Mexican War and the
''mini-invasion of the Dominican Republican.''
    Mrs. Jenness said Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern
''wants to cut the Department of Defense's budget by one-third,
Spock wants to cut it by two-thirds, but we want it abolished
completely.''
    On Sept. 9, Spock, Mrs. Jenness and their vice presidential running
mates were barred from entering the pcampaign.
    They took the case to U.S. District Court Judge Clarkson Fisher who
upheld the Army's action. However, Judge John Gibbons of the U.S.
3rd Circuit Court in Philadelphia last month reversed Fisher's
decision, saying that Ft. Dix has a long tradition of free access.k appealed the ruling to the Supreme Court, where
Solicitor General Erwin N. Griswold argued that campaigning on the
post could undermine ''the fundamental principle that the Army must
not become involved in or even appear to be involved in politics.''
The high court, in a 5 to 3 ruling on Friday, upheld Judge Gibbons'
decision to permit Spock and the others to campaign on the post.

    NEW YORK (AP) - When Sebastian Cabot, urbane host of the
TV show ''Ghost Story,'' feels restless, he goes into his kitchen
and whips up a batch of volcanic curry.
    ''I make the hot, East Indian type, that isn't good unless it
brings tears to your eyes,'' he said during a luncheon interview.
    Cabot's fondness for hot things became apparent when he ordered
a pre-lunch Bloody Mary.
    ''Spice it well,'' he instructed the waiter, ''then bring
me a bottle of worcestershire and one of tabasco.''
    When the drink had been fixed to Cabot's satisfaction, it
was the color of old teakwood.
    ''Drink this and you know you've had something,'' he said
contentedly. ''It singes your throat.''
    For years Cabot has been projecting the image of an elegant
intellectual in keeping with the impeccable characters he
usually plays. His smooth manner and Edwardian beard have
become his trademark, bespeaking a background of playing fields
and ivy halls. But actually his beginnings were quite different.
    ''I was supposed to go to Eton and Oxford - the whole bit,''
he said, ''but my father went broke when I was 14 and I quit
school and began to work in a garage. For the next 12 months
I did various odd jobs in the auto shop, none very pleasant.''
    At that point, his father asked the boy if he had ever thought
about becoming a chef. Sebastian who had already developed a
keen interest in food, agreed to give it a try.
    ''You see, I had become persona non grata in the garage.
I tried to move one of the cars and what I thought was the
brake proved to be the accelerator. As a result I drove the
car straight through the fire exit doors which happened to
be closed at the time. It made my position somewhat untenable.''
    Cabot got a job at a London restaurant at $2.50 a week, plus
all he could eat. By the time he was 16 he was second assistant
soup chef and weighed 285 pounds; somewhat excessive for his
5 foot 9 inch frame.
    Two years later Cabot asked to be changed from soups to pastries.
In the ensuing argument he was fired.
    At this point he turned to acting and to improve his appearance,
he managed to slim down to 215 pounds. Over the years he played
in many British movies and tried his hand at Shakespearean
roles on the stage. He became well known to American TV audiences
as Dr. Hyatt, the criminologist in ''Checkmate.''

    His interest in cooking remained with him and he spent his
spare time trying out various dishes in his kitchen while
his wife, Kay, watched apprehensively. Today he is known as
a connoisseur of good food and fine wines, in keeping with
his role of Winston Essex, the wealthy owner of Mansfield
House, who spins the supernatural tales of ''Ghost Story.''
    Cabot shuns pasta dishes for obvious reasons, but loves other
Italian dishes, including risoneri - ''rice cooked with squid
and its ink.''
    ''When I am on the road I find little time or opportunity
to cook,'' he said, ''but I make up for it when I am at home
in Los Angeles or at our summer place near Victoria, British
Columbia.''
    At one point in his career, Cabot came into contact with
a group of students from Ceylon and acquired a passion for
the fiery curries they used to cook. He has been making them
ever since.
    ''I prefer curry made from lamb or pork but the latter has
quite a bit of fat on it,'' he said. ''I also make a curry
from canned mackerel to the horror of many of my more fastidious
friends.''
    Cabot uses two heaping teaspoons of curry powder per pound
of meat up to six pounds and after that he tapers it down.
Here is his recipe for lamb curry.
    2 pounds stewing lamb
    2 medium-sized onions, chopped
    4 cloves garlic, cut up
    6 dried chili peppers
    4 heaping teaspoons curry powder
    1 teaspoon powdered ginger
     1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    2 ounces shortening
    2 cups beef stock
    In a heavy Dutch oven melt the shortening. When hot, add lamb
cut into 1 inch cubes and turn heat high. Toss meat with wooden
spoon till seared. Add onions, and toss till soft. Add curry
powder and toss again till mixture is saturated with shortening.
Add 2 cloves, garlic and the chili peppers. Toss one more minute,
Add stock, stirring till curry powder is blended in. Add cinnamon,
ginger and remaining garlic. Place lid on oven and let come
to a boil, then turn heat down to gentle simmer. Simmer about
1 hour stirring every now and then. Salt to taste and serve
over plain boiled white rice. Good with a chilled beer or ale.

Campaign '72
Calif Chicanos 420 Three Takes Total 950
By BILL STALL
Associated Press Writer
    LOS ANGELES (AP) - ''Unidos Con McGovern,'' reads a bumper
sticker - United for McGovern.
    ''Al fin, un amigo en la Casa Blanca,'' appeals a form letter
from President Nixon's campaign committee - At last, a friend
in the White House.
    An important part of the presidential race in California is
being fought in the Spanish language as Nixon and Sen. George
McGovern of South Dakota bid for the votes of an estimated one
million Spanish-speaking Californians.
    From the crowded barrios of East Los Angeles to the dusty farm
towns in California's Central Valley, a new political awareness is
emerging among the state's 3.5-million Spanish-speaking citizens.
    The issue of the Spanish-speaking voter arose anew on Friday when
McGovern's campaign headquarters in Washington released a memo
written last June by the head of Nixon's drive among
Spanish-speaking voters. The memo was generally pessimistic about
Nixon's chances with Spanish-speaking residents of Los Angeles, San
Antonio, Chicago and New York and recommended a negative,
don't-get-out-the-vote approach.
    A spokesman for the Nixon campaign acknowledged the authenticity
of the memo, but said it was ''an internal document, a thesis
draffted by our man on hiw own initiative. It's been gathering
dust in our files.''
    Alex Armendariz, author of the memo, was unavailable for comment.
    Now, however, the Nixon administration is making an unprecedented
appeal for the votes of this key ethnic bloc - always considered
a loyal part of the Democratic coalition.
    The California Poll issued on Oct. 18 indicated the Nixon effort
was making headway. The poll showed Nixon winning 35 per cent of the
Mexican-American vote to 52 per cent for McGovern, the Democratic
presidential nominee.
    That was an increase of five per cent by Nixon since May
and a drop of eight per cent for McGovern.
    The Mexican-American vote accounts for a potential 10 per
cent of the California turnout at the polls on Nov. 7.
    As Republicans campaign in East Los Angeles and suburbs with
heavy Mexican-American pockets, they point to the help Richard
Nixon has given Spanish-speaking Californians.
    They tick off 51 appointments of Mexican-Americans to important
federal jobs, led by Romana Banuelos, treasurer of the United
States, and Philip Sanchez, director of the Office of Economic
Opportunity.

    The word comes in the direct mail appeals, by Nixon workers in the
grass roots and by radio and television advertising in Spanish.
    Democrats reply that the Nixon appointments have been ''tokenism''
and they contend they are working to achieve more lasting
results for the Mexican-Americans or Chicanos in California
by helping to elect their own representatives to the State
Legislature and the Congress.
    Herman Sillas, a Los Angeles attorney and head of Unidos
Con McGovern, says ''I don't see the enthusiasm for McGovern''
that there was for the Kennedys or Hubert Humphrey. But he says
he expects local contests involving Mexican-Americans and
a statewide ballot proposition on organization of farm workers'
unions to draw a heavy Mexican-American vote in some areas.
    The ballot measure, Proposition 22, is opposed by Cesar Chavez
and his United Farm Workers Union. Chavez claims the measure
is backed by the big corporate farm owners and is designed
to destroy his union. The first thing McGovern did when he
came to California on Labor Day was to support Chavez in opposing
''this ignominious Prop. 22,'' although he said he normally
does not get involved in such state issues.
    While proponents contend Prop. 22 would protect farm workers'
rights, the measure also would curtail the use of boycotts,
such as the table grape boycott Chavez used to win contracts
for his union in California.
    In making their choice, Sillas said, ''Chicanos primarily
have got to look beyond Nov. 7 and determine what the presidential
campaigns will have left behind for us to use.

    ''The Republican campaign leaves nothing. It's like a circus that
came to town and pulled up the tent on the last day. Democrats are
leaving us registered voters, political expertise and functioning
staff, a structure of sorts and hopefully some elected Chicanos.''
    Manuel Quevedo Jr. is coordinator of Nixon's Spanish-speaking
campaign in California. The retired San Bernardino policeman says he
resents the charges of ''tokenism'' against Nixon, claiming
Democrats took the Mexican-American vote for granted for decades.
    ''They come out and say we are the most culturally deprived,
the least educated, the poorest. What have they done the past
38 or 40 years for us?'' asks Quevedo.
    Armando Mena, director of the Nixon youth movement among
Spanish-speaking Californians, is a former Democrat who says,
''We contributed our best to that party - our blood, sweat and
votes - and we didn't get anything in return for that.''
    Rather than abandoning the Mexican-Americans as soon as the
election was over, he said, Nixon has given them a meaningful
role in government.
    Referring to Sanchez, he said, ''Being head of OEO has a lot
to do with the destiny of a lot of communities.''
    There are now two Mexican-Americans in the 80-member State
Assembly, both Democrats; none in the State Senate, and one
out of 38 Californians in the U.S. House of Representatives.
    Sillas hopes at least four Spanish-surname Democrats will
win Assembly seats this year. There are at least two Spanish-
American Republicans running for the Assembly.

Rock Hudson 310 two takes total 470
By JERRY BUCK
Associated Press Writer
    HOLLYWOOD (AP) - Eight big movie stars rode into television
last year. Only one survived.
    Rock Hudson's ''McMillan and Wife'' was the one show renewed
at the end of the season. In the latest Nielsen ratings it
placed 11th as part of the ''NBC Sunday Mystery Movie.''
    The influx of stars into television had been expected to add big
name glamor to the home screen, but it didn't work out that way.
    The stars signed for last season were Hudson, Shirley MacLaine,
Anthony Quinn, Tony Curtis, James Stewart, James Garner and
Glenn Ford. Added to this was Henry Fonda, whose show had
premiered that January.
    By midseason, Miss MacLaine, Quinn and Fonda were gone. The
rest went when the season ended.
    Why was Hudson the only survivor?
    ''I think it's the show,'' he said. ''Mystery and comedy.
I think it's the only one of its kind on television.''
    Did he have any thoughts on why the other shows failed? ''Being
a non-television viewer I didn't see any of those shows,'' he said.
    Obviously, Hudson is not a man given to introspection or
self-analysis.
    Some insight into the failure of the movie stars to transfer
their popularity to the tube has emerged, however.
    Network executives admitted they rushed for the marquee value
of the names with little, if any, thought given to the shows.
In hindsight, they vowed never again to sign a star without
a firm concept of how he would be used.
    When NBC signed Garner, for instance, it had no idea for
the show other than the fact that it would be an hour long.
Several scripts were written, including one in which he was
a New York City detective. Garner opted for a sort of Western
in which he played a reluctant sheriff.

    Hudson, on the other hand, had these factors in his favor:
    -''McMillan and Wife'' was the only one of these shows for which
a pilot movie was made and aired on the network. Hudson was signed
for the series only after the NBC executives had a look at it.
    -It was the only show that did not appear weekly. As part of the
''NBC Mystery Movie'' it benefitted greatly from the success of the
other mini-series on the bill, particularly ''Columbo.''
    -The every-third-week showing had another dividend. It allowed
the producer and writers more time to construct better stories.
    -Its 90-minute length gave it the aura of a movie, making
it more of an event than a show on every week.
    -Hudson was cast in essentially the same kind of a role on
which he built his movie career. He is rugged and romantic,
alternating between action and light comedy. This is the kind
of a role the home audience remembered from the days before
they stopped going out to the movies.

    STORNOWAY, Scotland Take 2: Scotland the Free: Glasgow. 470

    In an interview at his home here in the Outer Hebrides, Stewart
ticked off a few of the things that the Scots are ticked off
about in their rule from London:
    -''Puir Wee Scotland,'' which has twice as many unemployed
as England and loses 40,000 of its population every year to
emigration, is being kept poor by government policies neglecting
its roads and airports and locating most new factories in the south.
    -Scotland contributes 800 million pounds - $1,920,000,000 - a year
to the central government and at least 150 million
pounds - $360,000,000 - is spent outside Scotland. ''We figure
even without the oil we are subsidizing them,'' said Stewart,
''although the Treasury consistently refuses to provide separate
figures on what Scotland pays and what it gets back.''
    -Scotland has most of Britain's forests, but the headquarters
of the forestry board is in Basingstoke in southern England.
It has most of Britain's coal, steel and hydraulic power,
but the headquarters of the Coal, Steel and Electricity Generating
Boards are all in London.
    -A Department of the Environment report leaked to the press
a few weeks ago, suggesting that British Rail abandon most
of its passenger lines in the north and west of Scotland to
become economically viable, has raised anew the old Scottish
cry of ''no taxation without transportation.''
    -The Ministry of Technology spends only 28 million
pounds - $67,200,000 - a year in Scotland out of a total budget for
the United Kingdom of 600 million pounds, or $1,440,000,000.
    -A Scot, John Logie Baird, invented television, but Scotland
has only one channel, compared to England's three, and no color
TV. ''Yet,'' pointed out Stewart, ''we pay the same license
fee as the English.''
    -The Scots are mad about their beloved regiments being disbanded
in the general military cutback since World War II.
    In a free, independent country, the Scots think they might
get a decent dram of whisky, since by law the exported stuff
is five proof degrees stronger. They think the national drink
gets no protection from London at all, what with being taxed
four times as heavily as French claret, 50 per cent higher
than port, sherry or champagne, and three times the duty on
beer, ''which is an English drink.''
    Then there are all the old petty annoyances like the Royal
Navy naming its ships for English seamen, and the wartime
song ''There'll always be an England'' and the switchboard
lighting up in Edinburgh whenever the announcer gives the weather
for northern Britain and starts off with Carlisle or Newcastle
rather than Aberdeen or Inverness.
    ''If a Highland lad wins a gold medal at Munich, he's British
in the London papers, if he's picked up for drunk driving,
he's a Scot,'' observed Stewart.

    An occasional post office box is still blown up beyond Hadrian's
Wall separating England and Scotland because the Queen calls
herself Elizabeth II. The Scots never get tired of pointing
out that James VI of Scotland became the first king of the
United Kingdom when he followed the childless Elizabeth I
of England to throne, even if from that day forward Scotland
as an independent country ceased to exist.
    By 1707, when the Treaty of Union became final, the Scottish
Parliament voted itself out of existence, and it hasn't met
since. Still, the Scots regarded themselves as different from
the English - they're Picts and Celts, not Anglos and Saxons - and
there's a great deal of law, custom and religion underlying
the distinction even today.
    The Kirk is the established church of Scotland, and its influence
is more pervasive than merely shutting down pubs and railways
lines on a Sunday in the highlands and the islands.
    When Elizabeth II crosses the border to go to her castle
at Balmoral, she is not only reduced numerically to Elizabeth
I of Scotland, she ceases to become head of the Church of
England and becomes ''first representative of Church of Scotland.''
In the wee kirk at Crathie, outside the castle, the service
she attends is distinctively Presbyterian.
    Scottish law is different from English law. Based on Roman
law, it is closer to continental, especially French, practice.
In Scotland, the police do not prosecute. This is the function
of the Lord Advocate's office. Sherriffs take the place of
magistrates, and there are no coroners.
    Even violent death in Scotland, which has three times England's
murder rate, is a private affair. ''A Scottish barrister can't
speak in a British court and the other way around,'' Stewart noted.
    Scotland has its own banking system and issues its own bank notes.
    The Scots have a passion for education; Scotland's teachers
are better paid than in England and proportionately twice
as many students go on to university, even if Scotland under
British rule only has as many - four - universities as it had
when Jamie Saxt went to London as the first Stuart to rule
the United Kingdom.
    To those who say Scotland can't afford independence, the
Nats answer that there already is an elaborate government
machinery operating from St. Andrew's House in Edinburgh.
It controls Scotland's prisons, agriculture, fisheries, education,
hospitals, roads, ferries and bridges.

 Medical Team 430
    WASHINGTON (AP) - Five U.S. physicians will leave for Hanoi
Wednesday under the auspices of a Senate subcommittee to study
the immediate and long-range relief needs of war victims.
    Dale S. DeHaan, counsel for the Judiciary Subcommittee on Refugees,
said Saturday that the Senate panel had been invited by North
Vietnam to send a group of doctors and that the medical men would
would leave for Hanoi after Tuesday's election.
    The invitation by North Vietnamese Foreign Minister Nguyen Duy
Trinh was sent through private channels to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy,
D-Mass., chairman of the subcommittee, DeHaan said.
    Physicians on the team are Nevin Scrimshaw, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology; Joseph English, president, Hospital Corp.
of New York City; David French, Boston University; John Levinson,
Wilmington, Del., and Michael Halberstam, Washington, D.C.
    DeHaan, who will accompany the group, said the doctors will
visit Cambodia in response to an official invitation and also
South Vietnam and Laos, in addition to North Vietnam.
    Their main objective, DeHaan said, is to gather information on the
human needs of war victims and the need for postwar rehabilitation
of reconstruction throughout Indochina.
    The team will seek detailed information on the identities
and condition of U.S. servicemen held in North Vietnam, he added.
    In New York, English confirmed that he was going to North Vietnam,
but declined further comment. The 39-year-old doctor was the chief
psychiatrist for the Peace Corps from 1962 to 1966 and later worked
in the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. He took the New
York City job in July, 1970.
    Levinson, who has served as a consultant to the subcommittee since
1967 and has made seven trips to South Vietnam for voluntary work
with civilians, said he viewed the journey as part of a continuing
effort by the Senate panel to collect data for the rehabilitation
of all of Southeast Asia. He said he expected the group to spend
about a week in North Vietnam.
    French, 48, head of the Boston University Community Medicine
Program and a trained pediatric surgeon, said the general purpose of
the trip is to ''review the general health and environmental
programs with an eye toward restoration after the war.''
    He said he expected ''fuller details would be discussed Wednesday
before the group left.''
    Asked about any political undertones connected with the trip
French said there were ''none as far as I'm concerned. I don't
think it's a political issue. I don't think it would have
any effect on the present peace negotiations.''

    STORNOWAY, Scotland Take 4: Scotland and Free: bridges. 450.
    All bills affecting Scotland in Parliament are considered
by the Scottish Grand Committee, comprising all 71 Scottish
MPs, but even here independence is mostly illusory because
Whitehall controls the purse strings.
    Opponents of Scottish nationalism, within and without her
borders, argue that the trend today, even in the Irish Free
State, is toward internationalism and the Common Market. They
point out that unemployment, dwindling population, abandoned
raillines and exhausted coal mines are the ills of an urban
society and not the result of any deliberate discrimination
against Scotland.
    ''Nationalism is a backward glance,'' insists Roddy MacLeod,
who ran as a Tory against Stewart in the Hebrides and was
beaten. ''The movement everywhere is toward internationalism.
You can't turn the clock back 270 years.''
    Suspending the Stormont Parliament in Northern Ireland was
a blow to the Scottish National cause, although the party
has always been insistent about seeking total dissolution
of the union with England rather than any diluted version
of home rule. The Nats keep in close touch with the Welsh
nationalist movement, but so far have avoided the violence
attending the aspirations on that side of Britain.
    Stewart is realistic enough to realize that the sudden gush
of oil may quench rather than fuel the fires of freedom north
of the border. Already opponents are saying the Scottish banks
are not in any position to bankroll the oil boom.
    Puir Wee Scotland might not be much of a loss to Britain
if the 71 Scottish MPs should all suddenly vote to dissolve
the union. But an oil-rich Scotland might be a pearl of too
great a price for the other 559 MPs in Westminster to see
plucked from the crown.
    To remove itself from the Union Jack, the flag of St. Andrew
may have to fly as defiantly as the flag of Rhodesia and a
lot closer to those it is defying.
    If nothing else, the Scottish National movement has managed
to wipe out the fourth verse of ''God Save the Queen.''
    That's the one written at the time of the Jacobite wars,
when Scotland last attempted independence. It offers a battle
prayer for Redcoat Gen. Marshall Wade in his campaign to subdue
the forces raised for Bonnie Prince Charlie:
    ''May he sedition crush
    And like a torment rush
    Rebellious Scots to crush
    Gave save our Queen...''
    If the BBC Choral Society dared to intone that verse, the
switchboard would light up like an oil field fire.

 Globe Poll 350
    BOSTON (AP) - A poll commissioned by the Boston Globe shows
President Nixon has lost support among Massachusetts voters and is
trailing Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern by 10
percentage points.
    The Globe said in a copyrighted story in its Sunday edition that
Nixon led McGovern 48 to 44 per cent among Massachusetts voters in
an Oct. 8 survey. The latest poll, conducted on Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday, gave McGovern 49 per cent, Nixon 39 per cent and left
12 per cent undecided.
    The poll was conducted for the Globe by the Becker Research
Corp., which surveyed 700 voters.
    The Globe said the poll showed that Nixon's unfavorable image
had grown, and that the last minute peace negotiations had
no impact among those polled. Nixon lost Massachusetts to Hubert
Humphrey by 700,000 votes, but earlier polls showed him with
considerable strength in the state.
    The Globe reported that McGovern had won back some Democratic
defectors, and gained ground with women voters, independents
and middle-of-the-roaders.
    The Globe said McGovern picked up strength among workers, jumping
to a 2-1 lead over the President in labor households after being
even a month ago.
    In addition, the Globe said:
    -McGovern retained a solid 5-1 preference over Nixon
among voters who consider themselves liberals.
    -Women voters, who preferred Nixon 48-43 in the October poll,
backed McGovern had 52-37 in the November survey.
    -Voters under 30 were 2-1 for McGovern, a slight gain over
a month ago.
    -The preference was reversed among voters between 30 and 44,
with Nixon's 5-4 advantage Oct. 8, now a 5-4 lead for McGovern.
    -Voters 45 through 64, who preferred the President by a 16 per
cent margin a month ago, now were evenly divided.
    -Among older voters, the poll showed no change, a 5-4 advantage
for the President.

AP Science Writer
    MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (AP) - Smokey the Bear has a problem.
    He has to find a way to continue telling people they should
not be responsible for starting forest fires while foresters
allow some naturally caused fires to burn - and deliberately
start a few of their own.
    Smokey, with his broad-brimmed ranger's hat, has been a familiar
figure on posters for 30 years or so.
    Against a background of tall trees he delivers such messages
as: ''Only you can prevent forest fires.''
    Now, after years of consideration and study, the U.S. Department
of Agriculture's Forest Service has adopted a new policy under
which some lightning-caused fires will be allowed to burn
themselves out.
    But the conditions have to be right so the fires will not
spread over too vast areas, and preparations are made to contain
them should they appear to be getting out of hand.
    There are two major reasons for this new policy:
    A half-century of official fire suppression has allowed the
buildup of fuel - dead trees, fallen limbs, leaves and the like - so
that when fire does occur it burns hotter and is harder to put out.
    This same policy also has interfered with the renewal of
forests and has made them poorer places for animals to live.
In seeking to protect nature, man has violated nature.
    The need and reasons for such a policy were discussed by National
Park Service, Forest Service and university researchers at
a recent meeting of the American Institute of Biological Sciences
in Minneapolis. And officials discussed the policy in interviews
in Washington.
    There are in the United States, under jurisdiction of the
forest Service, 9.1 million acres designated officially as
wilderness and 5.5 million acres designated as primitive areas,
which are being studied for conversion to the wilderness class.

 With Nixon-Cane 260
    ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - Two years ago, President Nixon sent Juan
de Jesus Romero, spiritual leader of the Taos, N.M., Pueblo Indians,
a ceremonial cane to add to his tribe's collection. Saturday,
Romero returned the favor.
    The 93-year-old Indian leader presented Nixon with a specially
blessed ceremonial cane during the President's brief campaign stop
here.
    He explained that it was the same cane he carried with him when he
went to Washington two years ago to argue for the return to the
Indians of 48,000 acres of land in Carson National Forest.
    Romero met Nixon during that trip and when Vice President Agnew's
daughter Kim visited the tribe shortly afterward she gave the Indian
leader a special ceremonial cane from Nixon.
    Congress eventually passed a bill returning the land to the
Indians.
    The cane from Nixon joined a collection of the Taos Pueblo that
included a special cane from the King of Spain, sent to the tribe
when Spain ruled what is now New Mexico and a cane given to the
tribe by President Abraham Lincoln.
    The cane Romero gave to Nixon on Saturday had a small symbol
near the top that the spiritual leader said meant: ''Go with
God and you will not stumble and fall.''
    He said the cane had been blessed in the ''Indian way,''
and ''Anyone who owns it, no one can hurt him or his family.''
    Romero said he presented it to Nixon as a good luck charm to help
him win the election.

    In addition, the Park Service, part of the Department of
Interior, has an estimated 12 million acres of forests.
    Craig Chandler of the Forest Service's division of forest
fire research in Washington said the ''let-burn'' policy was
approved about a year and a half ago.
    But each region within the forest service system must seek
individual approval for areas where the policy is to be in effect.
    So far, one area has been accepted. That is the 60,000-acre
White Cap Wilderness area in Montana. Others, Craig said, are
under consideration.
    The National Park Service has had such a policy, also applied
selectively, since 1968.
    In a four-year period in the 867,000-acre Sequoia and Kings
Canyon National Parks in California, there were 53 lightning
fires. All but four burned less than 10 acres. The other four,
a report states, ''did not burn beyond expected boundaries
and created no unacceptable damage.''
    Bruce Kilgore, a biologist with the Park Service in San Francisco,
has pointed out that the disastrous effect of a policy of fire
suppression was dramatically illustrated in 1955 when wildfire swept
from the McGee Ranch into Kings Canyon National Park.
    Within a few hours intense fire devastated 13,000 acres of
brush and forest where fuels had accumulated and threatened
a large stand of sequoias.
    Chandler, and others, emphasized that no fire will ever be allowed
to burn to the point that human life and property are endangered.
    Nature will not be allowed to go totally unchecked in any
area, for this might result in a burn so extensive that the
forest would take 300 to 500 years to recover, and the public
would not find this acceptable, he pointed out.
    Smokey the Bear's message apparently has reached more tourists
than local residents. Chandler said most of the unwanted forest
fires caused by man result from carelessness on the part of
residents rather than visitors.
    ''One of the things the fire prevention campaign has done
very nicely is to give the city dweller a real concern for
forest fires,'' he said.
    Chandler said he personally would prefer the practice of prescribed
burns to the ''let-burn'' policy. ''The good thing about prescribed
fire,'' he said, ''is that the decision can be made rationally
instead of waiting for nature. She doesn't always cooperate.''
    Prescribed burns long have been used in the multiple-use
forests of the Southeast. Multiple-use forests include timber
cutting and livestock grazing as well as recreation, wildlife
and watershed programs.
    These burns can be timed to occur when wind and moisture conditions
are right to insure that the fire will not get out of hand.

    Were it not for these deliberately set forest fires, fuel
levels would soon build up, creating conditions for fires
such as those which have spread from forests in Southern California
periodically and destroyed homes in adjoining populated areas.
    Until late in the 19th century, Indians, with apparently more
knowledge about the forests than their European successors
on the land, set fires in the forests.
    Mature trees withstand low intensity fires. Hotter, more
destructive fires result with heavy fuel buildup and dry conditions.
    In what has been taken to be a public desire to have wilderness
areas preserved, the government instituted a policy of fire
prevention and millions of dollars a year have been spent
in suppressing forest fires.
    Ironically, though, fire suppression has been responsible
for alteration of the nature of wildernesses.
    ''If we are going to keep an area the way people are used
to seeing it and like it, we will have to do some managing,''
Chandler said. This means the use of fire.
    Mechanical controls are not as effective, and they are
prohibitively expensive. The heavy equipment necessary to remove
unwanted trees and dead materials also disrupts the terrain, and it
does not recycle nutrients from the burned materials.
    Bans on the use of insecticides and herbicides have removed
these agents as means of forest management.
    Chandler said it will be quite a while before prescribed
fires are used in wilderness areas - until it is determined
whether the ''let-burn'' policy accomplishes the same ends.
    He and others emphasize that they still want no help from
the public in starting fires. Professional foresters should
decide when and where fires are to burn.

    BOULDER, Colo. (AP) - Fifteen persons were injured and 37 arrested
Saturday as the result of a snowball throwing incident during the
third quarter of the Nebraska-Colorado football game here, police
said.
    Most of those injured suffered minor cuts or bruises and

    There was no immediate indication of what started the fans throwing
the snowballs.
    Earlier, at halftime, members of the University of Nebraska band

    Theater Week: ''Irene'' Heals ''Nanette'' Scar 280 3 takes,
total 1,130

    EDITOR'S NOTE - Fresh from a courtroom drama in which he gave
up control of the smash hit ''No, No, Nanette,'' Broadway
producer Harry Rigby is back in business - but with a new attitude.
''I don't cross the street without calling my lawyers now.''
His new production is ''Irene,'' a revival from the same vintage
era as ''Nanette.''
    ---
By WILLIAM GLOVER
AP Drama Writer
    NEW YORK (AP) - He forgot to start a diary, but jaunty Harry
Rigby nonetheless feels in firm control of this new $800,000
Broadway project.
    ''I've learned the hard way,'' the producer concedes past
woe. ''I don't cross the street without calling my lawyers
now. It's sort of enforced maturity.''
    Rigby, in case the name eludes, was a prime force in genesis
of that still-running smash, ''No, No, Nanette.'' A bitter
legal battle over control of the property ended when he swapped
a quit-claim of all rights for $250,000.
    Undaunted by that management trauma, the showbiz veteran
is the lead partner for ''Irene,'' a musical ironically being
revived from the same vintage era as the other production.
    It is scheduled to arrive in town on Jan. 28 starring Debbie
Reynolds, Patsy Kelly and Billy De Wolfe.
    Just to keep the record straight, ''Irene'' opened in 1919,
six years before ''No, No Nanette,'' and set a long-run record
that stood until ''Oklahoma!'' came along a quarter century later.
    Rigby doesn't want any misunderstanding about apparent overlap
in mood or cast between his lost love and new enthusiasm.
In fact he evinces quite a twitchy tic at any suggestion the
present undertaking aims at the same public yen for yesteryear
diversion that was an important factor in the other's success.
    ''This show isn't nostalgic in the least, unless someone got
engaged to the strains of 'Alice Blue Gown.' There's no comparison
between the two shows. This is a standard and it's a musical
comedy.'' He stresses that last word with one of the flute-like
arpeggios that sprinkle Rigby conversation.

    ''I'm not like some current producers, I don't want my audience to
bleed a little,'' he continues. ''I just want them to have a good
time. It's very daring to do a show that's just supposed
to be entertaining.''
    Rigby talks about the pleasures and turmoil of renewed activity
from curled-up sanctuary in a sofa corner at the home of Mrs.
Constance Montgomery, who turned up in his life like an opportune
fairy godmother. He wears an apricot wool and black beaded
sweater she made.
    Mrs. Montgomery, a high-fashion stylist by profession, is
the widow of James Montgomery who, years before they met and
wed, wrote ''Irene O'Dare,'' the play that became the musical.
    The notion of doing it again occurred to the hand-knit couturiere
while reprise of ''Nanette'' was in progress. She broached
the matter to troubled Rigby, would you believe it, at the
premiere, to which she'd gone with Norman Norell.
    That noted designer, who died recently, accompanied her in
auld lang syne humor, because the original ''Irene'' was the
first Broadway show he ever saw.
    The opening night threesome established quick empathy, with
Norell promising to create a brand new blue gown for the Alice
production number.
    ''I gave Harry free rein with the script,'' Mrs. Montgomery
says, but she's continued lively participation in the project.
Rigby, enmeshed in year-long litigation, clutched her offer
like a life-belt in a stormy sea.
    Between lawsuit sessions versus Mrs. Cyma Rubin, who ultimately
became sole proprietor of ''Nanette,'' the ousted impresario
started another talent hunt like the one that won Ruby Keeler,
Busby Berkeley and Miss Kelly to the other oldie.
    ''I felt Debbie Reynolds would be absolutely right for the main
part,'' he picks up the sequence. ''It's a vehicle, that's what it
is and I felt she would be right. Her impact as a person is
tremendous. I'd never met her, but then I'd never met Ruby before
either.''
    He found Miss Reynolds at work in Las Vegas, where he'd never
been because ''I've seen too many movies how people go to
rack and ruin gambling.''
    After initial hesitancy, the movie star listened to the music
and said yes.
    ''She's very responsible to her family and had to take a lot
of things into consideration,'' Rigby reports. ''She's giving
up a lot of money to do it, believe it or not at that salary,
but it's absolutely true.''

    According to the show prospectus, Miss Reynolds takes down a
guarantee of between $7,500 and $10,000 week against a boxoffice
gross percentage that could run the amount up to $14,700. After
costs are paid off, she also gets up to 10 per cent of net profits.
    In return for such goodies in her first Broadway role ever, the
petite star has agreed to tour when the Main Stem run is over.
    After she was enlisted, Rigby recruited De Wolfe.
    ''He was born for this part,'' exclaims the producer. ''He
showed up for the first rehearsal line-perfect, which made
everyone else start mumbling.''
    To direct, Sir John Gielgud was sought. Rigby found him emerging
from a plastic snowstorm on the Hollywood set of ''Shangri-la,''
an upcomong musicalization of ''Lost Horizon.''
    That acquisition led to Hugh Wheeler, who gets credit for
the revised script along with Rigby and David Rogers.
    Miss Kelly had been lined up even before Miss Reynolds, though
Rigby is less certain just when. He also hired Raoul Pene
du Bois, who disigned the other show, to do this one.
    ''I vowed I'd keep a daily journal after that other show,
but I just haven't,'' he says. ''I think I'll start today.''
    He insists, however, that getting Miss Kelly couldn't be
regarded as a raid on ''Nanette.''
    ''That's not exactly a happy scene over there,'' he asserts. ''It's
misery. When Ruby announced she was leaving, Patsy wouldn't have
stayed in any event, she really wouldn't. There really wasn't any
malice at all. Of course, I do enjoy the fact she's with us.''
    When he got around to casting other members of the 33-role
company, Rigby ''wanted to give a lot of jobs to people fired
from the other show. But we couldn't there were five people
for every job. We do, though, have a lot of Rubin rejects.''
    Rigby feels the notoriety accompanying his lawsuit - ''the whole
thing was a Chinese water torture'' - helped to finance ''Irene.''
    His main partners, sharing production credit, are Albert W.
Selden and Jerome Minskoff, ''but we've got more backers probably
than composers.''
    The original score, by Harry Tierney and Joe McCarthy, has been
augmented mostly by Charles Gaynor and Otis Clements, who get
program credit, and sundry classic masters including Chopin, who
don't.
    ''I think it would be terrific if we could find Chopin's
heir and give him a little weekly royalty,'' chuckles Rigby.

With Nixon 460
By WILLIAM DICKE
Associated Press Writer
    ONTARIO, Calif. (AP) - Long-haired, youthful supporters of
President Nixon said they were turned back at the gate to a Nixon
campaign rally at Ontario International Airport Saturday night by
Secret Service agents who told them the party was ''private.''
    Many of the youths came to the airport on buses from nearby
high schools and had been given tickets for admission.
    Randy Harold 17, a Fountain Valley High School student whose hair
is shoulder length, said students at his school had been invited to
the rally by Nixon campaign staffers and were issued tickets on the
bus.
    ''When I got to the gate,'' Harold said, 'they told us the tickets
were no good. One of them grabbed the tickets and tore them up. One
of the men said, 'This is a private party.'''
    Allen Morgan, 25, of Seal Beach, Calif., said after being turned
away by officers, ''I was going to vote for him but now I'm not.''
    Carlos B. Solorio, 25, of Anaheim in Orange County said, ''We had
tickets. I couldn't believe they turned us away. Others who had
short hair weren't even asked for tickets and got in.''
    Solorio said he was a student at California State University
at Fullerton. He wore a teeshirt with a coat over it. ''I
guess we were too sloppy to get in,'' he said.
    Deputy White House Press Secretary Gerald L. Warren confirmed later
that some people were turned away. ''the people on the gate had to
make a judgment on whether people were coming to listen or to
disrupt,'' he said.
    The rally, held on a concrete apron about the size of a football
field, drew a crowd which police estimated at up to 30,000 and an
airport officials estimated at 50,000.
    The rally site, situated behind a low, chain-link fence, had
only one entrance, watched by about 10 Secret Service men.
    Advertisements inviting the public to ''see and greet the President
of the United States and Mrs. Nixon'' at Ontario had run for two
days in Los Angeles metropolitan daily newspapers. The ad was
sponsored by the California Committee to Re-elect the President and
did not specify that tickets or credentials would be needed to
attend.
    A spokesman for the Nixon California campaign said the youths
were turned away because they had exhibited obscene buttons
or carried hate literature.
    A Secret Service spokesman in Los Angeles said he had no
information on the allegations.
    Meanwhile, 500 to 1,000 persons demonstrated about 400 yards from
the gate. Their chants were barely audible at the rally site. Police
estimated there were between 500 and 1,000 protesters.
    Many carried signs, saying ''Sign the treaty now'' and ''Nixon's
treaty is a hoax.''

    ''Everyone thinks that all a medical examiner has to do is
an autopsy; we discover homicides in our work,'' Helpern said,
underscoring ''discover.''
    ''There are no perfect crimes. There are only untrained and
blundering investigators, slipshod medical examiners,'' he added.
    One of his favorite examples of a discovered crime occurred
some years ago around dinner time. Helpern had been summoned
to a fleabag hotel, where a woman seemingly died of an overdose
of pills from a vial on the bedstand.
    She was lying face up and apparently died in her sleep.
    But the chief medical examiner noticed two incriminating
details: There were a few tiny hemorrhages in the whites of
her eyes plus a lipstick mark on the pillow.
    Had she been lying face down, the hemorrhages could have
been normal. And had Helpern not seen her until the next morning,
the body's degenerative changes would have made them meaningless.
    Hlepern determined that she was smothered to death, and her
estranged husband later confessed later to the crime.
    In the Crimmins trials in 1968 and last year, the chief medical
examiner testified that four-year-old Alice Marie Crimmins
had been strangled to death soon after eating and hours before
her mother said she saw the children alive.
    ''If a child were fed at 6:30 or 7 p.m., would you expect to find
that much food in her stomach at midnight?'' Helpern was asked.

    ''I would not,'' he replied, and Mrs. Crimmins was convicted.
    In the Coppolino trial, defense attorney F. Lee Bailey could
not sway Helpern from his conclusion that the defendant killed
his 32-year-old wife in 1965 by injecting into her succinylocholine,
a deadly drug that quickly splits into its harmless components.
    As a result, Coppolino is behind bars.
    Helpern was called into the Coppolino case by a New Jersey medical
examiner who had to perform an autopsy on the victim's exhumed body.
    ''Since the Master was right across the river,'' the pathologist
reportedly said, ''I wanted to have his help.''
    Helpern, after all, has been a medical examiner for 41 years. He
and two other physicians wrote the enduring book on forensic
pathology in 1937. He's been president of four medical societies
and honored internationally.
    Helpern had finished a 2 1/2-year residency at Bellevue Hospital
in 1931, when the depression wiped out his expected job as
a laboratory director.
    So he took and passed the civil service exam for assistant
medical examiner.
    ''I was interested, but I hadn't been planning to be a medical
examiner. It was convenient,'' he recalled. ''Like everything else,
you can be a hack or you can do it with a certain amount
of interest.''
    The interest ''depends upon your interest,'' he said, referring
to himself as he often does in the second person. ''If you
do things just to get by, you don't really see what's in it.''
    Helpern's day begins about 9 a.m., when he and his wife
Beatrice, who works as his secretary without pay, arrive at
the blue-tiled building on Manhattan's First Avenue.
    In the lobby, they encounter a string of polished aluminum letters,
chiding all who can translate the Latin: ''Let conversations
cease. Let laughter flee. This place is where death delights
to help the living.''
    Greeted wherever he goes in the building with a ''Hi, Chief,''
Helpern heads for his office and sits in a leatherette rocking
armchair to take care of correspondence and manage his organization.
    The ''chief'' sees the paperwork of his job as a necessary
burden that keeps him from the autopsy room, which he visits
several times a day.
    ''You're there to advise. You're not just there as a foreman.

his biggest ponsibty to the public.
    ''They'reo be objective, t to take sides,'' he said,
reiterating his distaste for the old coroner system. Coroners,
Helpern went on, are politicians, elected to their jobs, and
capable of exploiting death.
    ''You call these cases as you find them. You're not concerned

staff. ''The autopsy room is the great equalizer - it's the most

    Newsday-Indictments 410, Two Takes Total 520
    GARDEN CITY, N.Y. (AP) - Newsday, the Long Island newspaper, said
Sunday the Justice Department has moved quietly over the last 18
months to ''drop or soften criminal actions'' against certain
prominent southern Democrats.
    Quoting unnamed government sources, the newspaper said specifically
that the Justice Department:
    -refused on three different occasions to allow a U.S. attorney to
present a draft of a criminal indictment to a federal grand jury
charging former Louisiana Gov. John J. McKeithen with conspiring in
a kickback scheme involving commissions on state insurance
contracts.
    -dropped federal Hatch Act charges against Major Gen. G. Reid
Doster, commander of the Alabama Air National Guard, at the request
of Alabama Gov. George Wallace and Sen. James O. Eastland, D-Miss.
    -blunted an investigation by the Internal Revenue Service into
alleged corruption in Gov. Wallace's administration and campaign
organizations, and specifically into the dealings of the governor's
brother, Gerald O. Wallace.
    Newsday said a Justice Department spokesman refused to comment on
any of the reports, but said he was ''not aware'' of any actions in
the department that could be considered politically motivated.
    The newspaper said it got its information from sources both
in the Justice Department and the Internal Revenue Service.
    Newsday said federal prosecutors in Louisiana drew up charges early
this year accusing McKeithen of participating in a kickback scheme
during reorganization of the state's insurance system in 1970-71.
    As is the practice in cases involving prominent political figures,
a U.S. attorney sent a draft of the charges to the Justice
Department for review and approval before submitting them tona grand
jury, Newsday said.
    The indictment was turned down three times by the department, the
last rejection following a meeting between McKeithen and Justice
Department officials, Newsday said.
    The paper said the case may yet reach the grand jury, and it quoted
a Justice Department official as saying, ''If it (the McKeithen
case) weren't still active, I could probably tell you something
about it.''
    Newsday said Atty. Gen. Richard Kleindienst, acting at the request
of Wallace and Eastman, personally interceded with U.S. Atty. Ira
DeMent of Montgomery, Ala., to have charges dropped against Doster
last August. Doster was accused of collecting money from
subordinates to donate in his name to various political campaigns.

    The other incident cited by Newsday concerned an Alabama
investigation by the Internal Revenue Service which the newspaper
said was called off last year after indictment of two Wallace
aides on tax evasion charges.
    At one point in 1970, IRS investigators sent an ''interim report''
to Washington suggesting several cases that might be made against
Gerald Wallace-cases that needed development by a grand jury Newsday
said.
    Newsday said then Assistant Atty. Gen. Will Wilson later discussed
the matter with IRS officials and the investigation subsequently was
transferred to another division of the IRS where it apparently was
dropped.

 Hart-Prisoners
    VIENTIANE, Laos (AP) - The wife of Sen. Philip Hart, D.-Mich.,
returned Saturday night from Hanoi and said she had visited a North
Vietnamese prison camp and interviewed eight American pilots.
    ''They were very disappointed the peace agreement had not
been signed. They are anxious to get home,'' said Jane Hart.
    Accompanied by two American poets, Muriel Ruckeyser
and Denis Levertov, Mrs. Hart said she was driven at night
to a camp in Hanoi that was a former military barracks.
    She said she spoke to the pilots for an hour and a half. ''They
were fine,'' she said, ''They seemed in good cheer. We had a few
laughs.''
    Mrs. Hart said the pilots slept four to a room, had books and
magazines, a recreation room with a table tennis table and a small
garden in which they worked every morning growing vegetables.
    ''They have a lovely garden with trees and a pond,'' she said.
    The pilots were conducting classes among themselves in mathematics,
automotive engineering and other technical subjects.
    ''Each was surprised at the treatment they had received,''
she said. ''They all said when they were picked up, they were
cared for, their wounds immediately treated, even if they
were small. They said there was no apparent hostility.
    ''They said they found this was in complete contrast to what
they believed they could expect,'' she added.
    Mrs. Hart said except for the prospect of a cease-fire they
had had no news and all asked about the Olympic games.
    She identified the pilots, all of whom said they were captured
since April, as: David Everett, San Francisco; Carroll Beeler,
Frisco, Tex.; Ted Triebel, San Diego, Calif.; James Padgett,
Mattydale, N.Y.; Tom Latendress, Lemoore, Calif; William Glenn
Byrns, Warrenton, Mo.; Ray Bean, Littleton, Col.; and Albert
Molinare, San Diego.
    Mrs. Hart said in talks with Vietnamese people and officials
she found out they were ''never unreasonably optimistic'' about
a cease-fire being signed by Oct. 31.
    They thought they had gone a long way themselves by withdrawing
their demand for South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu's
replacement and agreeing to an internationally supervised
election, she said.
    ''But they were very disappointed,'' she added.
    Mrs. Hart said she felt that if peace did not come ''the
Vietnamese can endure endlessly.''

 Indochina Roundup
By GEORGE ESPER
Associated Press Writer
    SAIGON (AP) - U.S. B52 bombers attacked Communist troop and supply
concentrations in all four countries of Indochina Sunday in a
campaign military sources said was aimed at countering a
precease-fire buildup.
    More than 100 stratofortresses unleashed 2,500 tons of bombs on
targets in North and South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia,
military sources said.
    The B52s ranged across the southern panhandle of North Vietnam to
within 22 miles of the big port of Vinh, then southward across the
demilitarized zone. They struck along the Ho Chi Minh Trail supply
network in eastern Laos, then swept southward to attack base camps
in eastern Cambodia.
    The eight-jet bombers flew missions in all four military regions of
South Vietnam-the northern quarter below the DMZ, the central
highlands, the Saigon region and the Mekong Delta to the south.
    About one-third of the B52 raids were concentrated in the southern
panhandle of North Vietnam below the 20th parallel, and smaller
American fighter-bombers carried out 120 strikes in the same area. A
bombing halt above the 20th parallel remained in effect.
    U.S. Navy fighter-bomber pilots from the carrier Kitty Hawk
reported their bombs triggered two secondary explosions that ignited
more than 50 sustained fires during a raid on an ammunition depot
near Vinh, 90 miles below the 20th parallel and 145 miles north of
the DMZ. Pilots said they felt the concussion from the explosions at
9,000 feet and that smoke blanketed the target area at an altitude
of more than 4,000 feet.

 Peace Talks
    NEW YORK (AP) - The head of North Vietnam's delegation at
the Paris peace talks has said another negotiating session
to firm up the proposed peace settlement with the United States
is acceptable if Washington is ''serious,'' The New York Times
reported Sunday.
    In an interview with The Times Saturday, Xuan Thuy said:
''We are not creating any difficulties about a further meeting.
The question is to be serious.''
    If after this ''final'' session between Henry Kissinger and
his North Vietnamese counterpart, Le Duc Tho, Thuy said, ''the
U.S. agrees and then proposes more changes, it would be very
difficult to settle things.''
    The Hanoi official quoted from what he said was an Oct. 20
message from President Nixon to Premier Pham Van Dong calling
the peace agreement ''complete'' and Dong's Oct. 22 reply
setting the signing for ''exactly'' Oct. 31.
    In the unsigned agreement, Thuy said, a provision explicitly
provides that ''the U.S. side acts with the concurrence of
the Saigon administration.''

 Hanoi-Americans
    TOKYO (AP) - Seven American antiwar activists who said they
were going to North Vietnam to discuss the release of prisoners
of war have arrived in Hanoi, North Vietnam's official Vietnam
News Agency reported Sunday.
    Tom Hayden, of the Indochina Peace Campaign, said before
he left New York last week that when the group was invited
in mid-October, the intention was to go to Hanoi to ''help
in carrying out some tasks, including, but not limited to,
help in returning prisoners of war.''
    ''But now that the agreement has not been signed, everything
is in doubt. We will have to find out what's going on when
we get there,'' Hayden said.
    The Hanoi dispatch said the group arrived Saturday in Hanoi.
    Hayden, who was part of an antiwar group that brought back
three POWs from Hanoi in September, had to get permission
from a Chicago appeals judge to make the trip. Hayden is out
on bail pending appeal of his conviction for inciting to riot
during the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
    Other members of the group arriving in Hanoi:
    -Prof. Howard Zinn of Boston University.
    -David Hunter, deputy general secretary of the National Council
of Churches.

    SAIGON (AP) - Enemy troop and supply concentrations in all
four countries in Indochina came under attack Sunday from
U.S. B52 bombers in a campaign military sources said was aimed
at blunting a buildup before a cease-fire.
    More than 100 of the giant bombers dropped 2,500 tons of
bombs on targets in North and South Vietnam, Cambodia and
Laos, the sources said.
    The B52s ranged across the southern panhandle of North Vietnam
to within 22 miles of the big port city of Vinh, then southward
across the demilitarized zone. They struck along the Ho Chi
Minh supply trail in eastern Laos, then swept southward to
attack base camps in eastern Cambodia. A bombing halt above
the 20th Parallel remained in effect.
    U.S. and South Vietnamese officials consider the troop movements
as evidence the Communist command intends to expand its area
of control in South Vietnam before a cease-fire goes into effect.
    Smaller American fighter-bombers from the aircraft carrier
Kitty Hawk carried out 120 strikes in the same areas. The
Navy pilots reported their bombs triggered two secondary explosions
that ignited more than 50 sustained fires during a raid on
an ammunition depot near Vinh.
    Pilots said they felt the concussion from the explosions
at 9,000 feet and that smoke blanketed the target area at
an altitude of more than 4,000 feet.
    The Saigon command reported 102 North Vietnamese and Viet
Cong attacks across South Vietnam during the 24-hour period
ending dawn Sunday. A communique said most of the attacks were
by rockets and mortars.
    The command claimed 89 enemy troops were killed in fighting
in the Mekong Delta. Government losses were reported as five
killed and 29 wounded.
    Viet Cong leaders called on their forces to escalate hostilities
''on a front wider than ever before'' if the United States
fails to sign immediately the draft peace agreement.
    A communique issued at the end of a two-day conference of Viet
Cong leaders invited other political and religious organizations
to join the Viet Cong in ''unified action'' against the United
States and the government of President Nguyen Van Thieu, the
Viet Cong's Liberation radio reported.

    The United States continued its crash military aid program to
South Vietnam as more warplanes and other supplies arrived Sunday.
    The movement of C130 transport planes from Air National Guard
bases in the United States was completed when the last of
30 of the four-engine transports arrived at Saigon's Tan Son
Nhut air base.
    Some F5 fighter-bombers flown from Clark Air Force Base in
the Philippines arrived in Da Nang for the South Vietnamese
air force.
    U.S. sources said the influx of as many as 4,000 new planes and
helicopters will boost the South Vietnamese air force to more
than 2,000 air craft, making it the third largest in the world.
    The North Vietnamese have accused the Nixon administration
of sabotaging the draft peace agreement with the massive buildup
of the South Vietnamese armed forces.
    The tentative agreement says that after the cease-fire is
signed existing military equipment can be replaced only on
a one-to-one basis. There is no limitation now.
    Hanoi's Vietnam News Agency quoted North Vietnam's army newspaper
Quan Doi Nhan Dan as saying ''the United States is still bent
on seeking a position of strength in negotiation to force
its colonilist terms on the Vietnamese people . . .''
    In Moscow, the Communist party newspaper Pravda said the
United States is delaying signing the peace agreement in order
to buildup South Vietnam's military arsenal.
    ''In Washington they are not in a hurry to end the war immediately.
But one of the important questions that Washington is in a
hurry to settle is the feverish strengthening of the Saigon's
regime's mlitary machine,'' the paper said.
    North Vietnam's chief delegate at the Paris peace talks says
another negotiating session to firm up the proposed peace
settlement with the United Sttes is acceptable if Washington

I don't know where.
    ''The men are angry about it. I'm angry about it. The thing

my boys here? Just because a computer says so?''
    The patrol passed an old Vietnamese man sitting next to a
bird trap in a corn field and some peasants tending a rice
paddy near the Long Binh fuel depot.
    Sgt. Mike Haight stumbled in a ditch and explained what it
felt like to be a 22-year-old draftee from Costa Mesa, Calif.,

end of going home. I'll believe it when I get on the plane.''
    A blue and silver Air America helicopter sputtered overhead.
    ''Hey, a civilian bird. I ain't never seen one before.''
    The grunts crossed an open field and straggled through the
wire, back into the protective confines of Long Binh. The
patrol was over, 3 1/2 hours after it began.

Gallup Bjt 430 Two Takes Total 750
By CHRIS CONNELL
Associated Press Writer
    PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) - More than 80 million Americans are
expected to vote in Tuesday's presidential election, but George
Gallup, the dean of American pollsters, won't be one of them.
    ''I never vote because I've always felt I shouldn't get involved
with politics in any way - national politics. I vote in local
elections,'' says the 70-year-old Gallup. ''It is possible
for someone who is involved to be objective, but it is difficult.''
    Gallup says this is ''the ulcer season'' for pollsters, as
their surveys are put on the line by the electorate. ''But
temperamentally I'm not a worrier,'' he adds.
    Gallup has weathered nine presidential elections and 18 national
elections since issuing his first national poll 37 years ago.
    ''It's like giving birth to a baby,'' he said during an interview
in his offices in this college town.
    The Gallup Poll has correctly called every presidential race except
the 1948 election, when it and other surveys foresaw Harry Truman
losing to Thomas E. Dewey. Gallup predicted Dewey would win, 49.5 to
44.5 per cent. Truman's winning margin was 49.9 to 49.5.
    That setback prompted an overhaul of Gallup's polling methods.
He abandoned the quota system - in which the views of a
proportionate number of men, women, rich, poor, Roman Catholics,
Protestants, and so on were sought out - and substituted random
sampling, which relies on clusters of interviews in several hundred
spots across the country.
    Gallup also quit trying to predict a candidate's electoral
vote. The cost of determining how a candidate would fare in
each state would be ''fantastically expensive,'' he says.
    In 1968, the final Gallup Poll predicted Richard Nixon would top
Hubert Humphrey by 43 to 42 per cent. Nixon's actual margin was 43.4
to 43 per cent.
    Gallup's latest survey, conducted Oct. 13-18, showed Nixon leading
George McGovern 59 to 36. A final sampling was being conducted
through Saturday.
    Gallup denies that polls create a bandwagon effect for candidates
in the lead. If this were so, he says, Dewey would have won in 1948
and Nixon would never have lost his wide lead four years ago.
    ''What helped Humphrey was the collapse of the Wallace vote,''
he says. ''People who've voted for one party all their lives
always tend to drift back to that party.''
    Gallup has actually relinquished control of the daily workings
of the organization to his son, George Jr. The father spends
several months of the year abroad, keeping an eye on Gallup
affiliates in 26 countries, including the Scandanavian countries,
where the word for survey is ''gallup.''

 PRINCETON, N.J. Take Two Gallup Bjt: ''gallup.'' 320
    Gallup got his start in polling in his native Iowa, where he did
some surveys for his mother-in-law, Ola Babcock Miller, who in 1932
was elected secretary of state, becoming the first Iowa Democrat to
hold statewide office since the Civil War.
    Today some 157 papers subscribe to the poll, underwriting
its cost. Gallup's base of operations was then, as now, Princeton,
near a 400-acre farm he purchased in 1934. One hundred persons
are now employed in the inconspicuous building the Gallup
organization occupies on a sidestreet here.
    The average survey is based on 1,500 interviews conducted
in 300 localities around the nation by some of the 800 interviewers
in the Gallup employ. Most of the interviewers are women.
    ''Women are more honest than men,'' explains George Gallup
Jr., 42. He adds that most of the interviewers are middle-aged
and do the work part-time, usually on weekends.
    Louis Harris, whose poll is carried by some 300 papers, also uses
the random sampling method and, like Gallup, eschews telephone
polling, which both consider to have a higher margin for error.
    The younger Gallup joined his father's business in 1953 after
graduating from Princeton, where he majored in religion and
''flirted with the ministry.''
    ''This field provides some of the same things I was looking
for in religion,'' he says. He calls polling an opportunity
to provide ''positive help on a grand scale.''
    ''We think we perform an important function in a democracy,''
says his father. ''There is no other way to report accurately
the views of the people.''
    Both Gallups say the reliability of their methods have been
approved repeatedly but add there's still margin for error.
    ''The public will never understand the workings of the laws of
probability,'' says the father, explaining that if you flip 100
pennies, ''most often they will come out 50 heads and 50 tails.''
    ''But there's the odd chance - one in a hundred - they'll come out
80 heads and 20 tails. You never can be dead certain. That's one
good reason why polls will never take the place of elections.''

 Crime-U.N. Bjt 320 two takes total 630
By WILLIAM N. OATIS
Associated Press Writer
    UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) - Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim
called on Sunday for U.N. action to cope with a world ''crime
crisis of growing proportions.''
    In a weekend report to the 132-nation General Assembly, he
said it might wish to make a commitment to crime prevention,
review trends in world crime and ask him for more such reports
in future years.
    He also said it might be appropriate for the U.N. system
to set up meetings of ministers of justice, ministers of the
interior or their equivalents to develop international policy
on crime fighting.
    Without mentioning the U.S. presidential balloting two days
off, Waldheim said that in some countries, ''the issue of
law and order has become an important feature of election
campaigns.''
    ''Despite material progress, human life has never had a greater
sense of insecurity than it is experiencing today,'' said
his 41-page report on ''Crime Prevention and Control.''
    He spoke of ''the ever-rising tide of known homicides, robberies,
burglaries and sex offenses which plague so many areas of
the world,'' and cited figures from Canada, Poland, Uganda
and Japan, among others.
    He said that in the 1960s, crime grew 10 per cent a year
in Britain and serious crime 14 times faster than the population
in the United States.
    ''Some of the most affluent countries are most sorely afflicted,''
he observed, because crime is not ''always or necessarily
retreating before the quite considerable extensions of health,
education, housing and other social improvement programs.''
    In fact, he said, otherwise desirable social and economic
policies ''might unwittingly breed delinquency,'' as in the
case of new housing projects with greater delinquency problems,
and care must be taken to avoid that.
    ''The revolution of rising expectations'' itself has produced
crime, Waldheim said, as some people frustrated in obtaining
their expected goals turn to unlawful means.

    New and special problems exist, he declared, in youth who
go over from social protest to real crime; drug addicts who
''turn to aggressive personal criminality'' to support their
habits; organized crime ''applying modern systems and managerial
patterns to the accumulation of capital by unlawful means;''
bribery and corruption, and related white collar business
crimes against tax collectors, workers and consumers.
    He stressed that international action was required against
those who harmed aliens or crossed frontiers ''in seizing
foreign diplomats, capturing planes in the air, or kidnaping
prominent personalities.'' He noted that he had put the issue
of terrorism before the assembly.
    ''To prevent delinquent behavior, one has to begin with the
forms of care and character development which flow from infancy
through childhood to adolescence,'' Waldheim said.
    But he stated that ''there is no universal prescription for
crime prevention,'' and he argued that the present system
of police, courts and prisons was not working.
    ''Basic reform is required,'' he said, with ''truly radical
departures from outmoded and discredited approaches'' and
''new methods that involve the total interplay of social and
economic forces and institutions to minimize the incidence
of crime and to prevent the perpetuation of criminal patterns.''
He did not elaborate.
    Pointing to overworked police, overloaded courts and overcrowded
prisons, he said, ''there may be some optimal size for towns
beyond which it becomes difficult to service them properly
or to provide security.''
    He endorsed a 1971 resolution of the economic and social
council calling for direct U.N. aid to governments in improving
anticrime services, and asked for government contributions
to a U.N. antidelinquey trust fund that has taken in only
$1,022,743 in seven years.

 Election-China Bjt 400 two takes total 600
By ARTHUR L. GAVSHON
Associated Press Writer
    PEKING (AP) - China's millions seem unmoved by the U.S.
presidential election or who wins it.
    The men holding office in Peking, however, are taking a deep
interest.
    They prefaced all discussion of the subject with the qualifier
that American elections are the business of the American people
and that outsiders like themselves should not and could not
properly interfere.
    Yet this did not prevent some of them from posing questions
to a group of British visitors.
    ''Will President Nixon authorize the signature of the Vietnam
pact before the ballot?''
    ''If, as so many people say, Nixon is going to defeat Sen.
McGovern decisively, why has he gone so close to a peace settlement
and then stopped?''
    ''Do you think he sincerely wants to end the war, or is the
whole thing just a trick to keep American voters from switching
to the Democrats?''
    Two standout impressions emerged from these informal exchanges
spread out over several days last week and involving members
of revolutionary committees, as well as government men, inside
and outside Peking:
    -China's national interests are involved in the outcome of
the ballot. In the short term, their attention is focusing on the
fate of the provisional Hanoi-Washington accord to end the
Vietnam war. In the long term, anything they might regard as a
display of bad faith by the Nixon administration over Vietnam
would call into question all the things their leaders discussed
with Nixon here last February.
    -China's leaders felt they had set the basis of a slow but
sure process of reconciliation with the Americans after the
President's visit. A good understanding of the administration's
global aims and purposes enabled them to proceed confidently
with their own policy of normalizing China's relationships
abroad and economic and social development at home. A victory
for George McGovern would not dislocate that policy but it
could pose some awkward options.
    For one thing, the Democratic contender favors a substantial,
orderly cutback of the U.S. presence in Europe which the Chinese
would regard as perilous. They are convinced Russia would exploit
any such opening.
    For another thing, they believe a McGovern administration
would feel that it could carry the process of an American-Soviet
relaxation a lot further than Nixon has done.

    China's broad masses have no way at all of following U.S.
electoral affairs in any remotely independent or balanced way.
    Men like Chao Sung-ling, a vice chairman of the revolutionary
committee in East Peking's cadre school, for example, train
leaders of local and district party groups in official policy.
    But when it comes to contemporary affairs, including American
affairs, Chao speak just as if he had memorized a script.
    It's the sort of script that portrays the Americn people
themselves as fine and friendly - people keen to be friendly
with the Chinese but prevented from doing so over the years
by U.S. governments in the grip of big business, special interests,
the hawks of the Pentagon, and so on.
    On some matters, of course, Chao and those with whom he works
probably know as much about America as lots of Americans know
about Asia.
    But the picture that emerges still is one suggesting the
governments of the United States, since Communist China was
set up in 1949, have thwarted the restoration of Taiwan to
its proper place, have sought to encircle the Chinese, have
promoted Japanese and German militarism and have triggered and
waged the Vietnam war for their own purposes of imperalist gains.

 German Bjt 330 Two Takes Total 500
By HUBERT J. ERB
Associated Press Writer
    BERLIN (AP) - The Big Four victors over Nazi Germany successfully
concluded an intensive round of talks Sunday, paving the way for
the two Germanys' entrance into the United Nations, provided
the Germans can agree among themselves.
    It was a conference that lasted 10 meetings and two weeks
and which, for the first time, had Soviet agreement on a discussion
of lingering four-power rights and responsibilities in divided
Germany.
    What exactly was concluded was not made public. The scene
shifts back to an all-German level of negotiations resuming
in East Berlin on Monday.
    The West German state secretary, Egon Bahr, informed the Bonn
Cabinet on Sunday of his course in what could well be his final
meeting with the East German state secretary, Michael Kohl.
    If Bahr and Kohl agree on a basic treaty normalizing relations
between East and West Germany, then the two states could apply
for U.N. membership within the framework of the four-power
agreement.
    The four powers are the United States, Britain, France and
the Soviet Union.
    It is the goal of Chancellor Willy Brandt's West German government
to complete the package by the Nov. 19 general elections.
An original timetable called for initialing the all-German
treaty late next week in Bonn, if everything worked out.
    A concluding communique to the four-power talks said: ''The
ambassadors successfully concluded their exchange of views
and have agreed to report to their governments on the result
of their discussions.''
    Chairman for the final session in the conference
was Martin Hillenbrand, U.S. ambassador to West Germany.
    Jean Sauvagnargues, French envoy to Bonn, told newsmen, ''what
happens next depends on other decisions.'' Asked to describe
the four-power result, he replied, ''very good.''
    The British negotiator was Sir Nicholas Henderson.
    Mikhail Yefremov, the Soviet ambassador to East Germany,
said, ''We are satisfied with the results of our work. We
worked well together.''

 BERLIN German Bjt Take 2: together. 200
    The two essential points in the parallel talks revolved around
East German recognition of West Berlin and representation of the
western section of the divided city by West Germany.
    The Western Big Three were understood at the outset to be
fearful that an East Germany in the United Nations might declare
itself fully sovereign, endangering allied rights especially
in Berlin. A joint declaration with the Russians that those
rights continued would head off such an eventuality.
    Such a declaration also would endorse West Germahy's view
of two German states within a national whole.
    The Communists have resisted West German representation of West
Berlin, which they say is a separate city state.
    Whether these thorny questions will get mention in the four-power
draft or in the German treaty was not known.
    West German reports said the four-power declaration consists
of two sentences and the word ''Germany'' is never mentioned.
Some accounts said they believed the all-German treaty in
turn would avoid direct mention of West German responsibility
for West Berlin.

 SAIGON Third Force Bjt Take Two: live. 300
    If there is a single leader or rallying figure for all of
this it would appear to be ''Big'' Minh, who led the coup
that overthrew Diem in 1963 and briefly ruled the country
before he, too, was deposed and went into exile for several
years until 1968.
    Minh tends to be vague and simplistic in a way that causes
many Americans to scoff at his leadership potential in time
of crisis. But some Vietnamese say his oblique approach to
issues is the secret of his wide popular appeal, particularly
in the southern part of the country where his roots lie.
    Minh last week issued one of his rare public statements,
urging ''conciliation'' on all sides and hinting that he would
be ready to serve in some capacity if called upon.
    Some observers think the chaotic and fragmented nature of
the Vietnamese political scene encourage Thieu's distrust
of any middle-road movement. ''He doesn't see the middle,''
a politician said. ''You're either for him or against him.''
    Which members of this cast, if any, might be tapped for a
role in the third portion of a tripartite council depends on
the negotiators of the settlement.
    Thieu has made his opposition to the council clear. He fears
his opposition would likely gain the edge in the middle force,
and he would be outnumbered 2 to 1.
    He has also called the council a ''disguised'' coalition which
would supersede all existing institutions.
    Lawyer Tuyen said he believes bloc members should be taken
from four categories: political opposition in the National
Assembly, anti-Communist An Quang Buddhists, political parties
that are both anti-Communists and anti-Thieu, and ''some political
personalities in exile abroad.''
    The clearest thing on the current scene is that few centrists,
if any, have been consulted about the choice of neutral bloc
members or the progress of the negotiations.

    WT KEEPS THE CENTRISTS INTERESTED IN THE CONFUSION IS THE
KNOWLEDGE THAT THE NEUTRAL BLOC ON A POWERFUL COMMITTEE WOULD
NEED A POPULAR CONSTITUENCY.
    They claim they have a big one waiting, and that if things
went right it could steal adherents from both sides and wind
up with a big majority that would reflect a true popular view
and undercut the extremists of left and right who would
prefer to continue fighting.
    ''Most people living under Communist control are not Communists,''
said Tuyen, ''but they must pay taxes, be drafted and fight
for the Communists. For those who live under Thieu's control
it is the same.
    ''This silent mass have not been able to emerge as a real
force because they are between two fires.''
    Despite this confidence the centrists wonder whether the
fire will abate enough and whether there will be enough time.
    ''It's a problem of leadership,'' said a prominent follower
of the late President Diem. ''People now are more afraid of
the Communists than the nationalists. When peace comes the
VC cadre would become bolder and bolder. They would invest
themselves with a new legality and do anything they like.''
    There also is fear of Thieu. He has dealt with his political
enemies harshly even when, in the opinion of some observers,
victory might have made him magnanimous. He jailed his losing
opponent Truong Dinh Dzu after the 1967 presidential race
and, since his alleged 93 per cent ''vote of confidence'' in
last year's one-man election, has pursued an increasingly tough
course in the name of national security.
    ''With Thieu there is really no choice but to fight more,''
said Duong Van Ba, former opposition deputy. ''If people supported
him, if he had a popular regime, then he would have no worries
about sitting down and talking an end to the war.''
    ''Mr. Thieu is a military leader, and his mission has been
to make war,'' said Tuyen. ''Now his mission is finished.
We need a political leader, someone with clear sight to take
into account internal political realities and international trends.
    ''It is not too late,'' said Tuyen, ''but time is not on our
side.''
    South Vietnam's recent history is not encouraging to those
who would fashion any kind of political coalition out of the
country's host of social, racial, religious and regional factions.
Many leagues have loomed and dissolved. Thieu himself tried
and failed.

 CBS Strike 300
    NEW YORK (AP) - The Columbia Broadcasting System said it
was prevented from telecasting the New York Jets-Washington
Redskins football game Sunday when cables were cut at Shea
Stadium.
    The network, which is being struck by 1,200 cameramen, technicians
and engineers, switched to coverage of the Detroit Lions-Chicago
Bears game in Detroit. Strikers were reported picketing Tiger
Stadium there.
    A spokesman for CBS said the cables had been severed at some
point between the hookup in a mobile transmitting unit outside
Shea Stadium and the camera positions inside. About 25 pickets
were reported at the stadium, and police took three into custody -
one for allegedly tampering with a cable.
    Supervisory personnel have been manning cameras and performing
other technical functions since members of the Radio and Television
Broadcast Engineers, International Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers struck Friday.
    CBS has said it will continue regular broadcast schedules
and will offer complete election coverage Tuesday night.
    But the ''Face the Nation'' interview program was canceled
Sunday after Vice President Spiro T. Agnew and Democratic
presidential candidate George McGovern - set for back-to-back
appearances in an expanded version of the program - declined
to cross picket lines.
    CBS-owned stations in New York, Boston, Chicago,
St. Louis, Los Angeles and San Francisco and network news
facilities in Washington were affected.
    The walkout came after talks broke down on a new three-year
contract to replace the one that expired Oct. 1. The key issue
involves work rules, with the network saying the technicians
want the right to duplicate material used in creating graphics
by other employes.
    No new talks were scheduled, a management spokesman said.

 Peace Talks 480
    NEW YORK (AP) - North Vietnam is ready to resume negotiations
with the United States to conclude a peace agreement if Washington
is ''serious,'' the leader of Hanoi's delegation at the Paris
peace talks has told The New York Times.
    ''At present, we are demanding that the Americans honor the
agreement and sign,'' the official, Xuan Thuy, said in a Paris
interview, published in the newspaper's Sunday editions.
    ''But we do not have a rigid attitude about another meeting.
The question is seriousness.''
    Henry Kissinger, President Nixon's national security adviser,
has said another meeting with Thuy's superior, Le Duc Tho,
is necessary to firm up understanding on several points in
the draft peace agreement.
    The North Vietnamese had reported conclusion of the agreement
and demanded that it be signed Oct. 31, a date they said Washington
had accepted.
    Thuy called the possible future session a ''final'' session and
warned that if after the meeting ''the U.S. agrees and then proposes
more changes, it would be very difficult to settle things.''
    The general terms of the proposed agreement have been made
public. They provide for a standstill cease-fire in South
Vietnam, to be followed by withdrawal of U.S. troops and release
of American prisoners by North Vietnam. A coalition assembly would
set up elections for a new political structure for South Vietnam.
    Kissinger has sought acceptance of the settlement by South
Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu, who has questioned
the status of North Vietnamese troops in the South and the
makeup of the interim coalition.
    In the interview, Thuy declared, ''We don't believe in difficulties
(raised) by Saigon.'' He said the unsigned agreement explicitly
provides that ''the U.S. side acts with the concurrence of
the Saigon administration.''
    The North Vietnamese official read from what he said was an Oct.
20 message to Premier Pham Van Dong in which President Nixon
reportedly said the ''agreement can now be considered complete.''
    A second passage in Nixon's letter, Thuy said, set Oct. 31
as the signing date. He also read Dong's Oct. 22 reply accepting
formal signature ''exactly'' on that date.
    Thuy said the issue of North Vietnamese troops in the South
had been abandoned by the United States in the private Kissinger-Tho
talks, saying ''the U.S. has agreed to drop the question.''
    He listed major changes of position by the Nixon administration
in the last four years, saying, ''In 1969, Nixon insisted
on withdrawal of North Vietnamese troops and refused to withdraw
all U.S. troops, advisers and military personnel. He refused
to recognize the National Liberation Front and demanded that
it submit to the Saigon administration.''
    If the United States had conceded these points four years
ago, Thuy said, ''we would have accepted conditions like the
present ones.''
    ''Peace could have come in 1969,'' he declared.

er their actual efforts to consolidate the
Saigon government which is deteriorating and use it to implement the
Vietnamization policy and prolong the war in order to impose
neocolonialism on South Vietnam.
    ''The additional urgent shipment of war equipment to Saigon in
parallel with other war activities such as using aircraft and
warships to attack in North and South Vietnam, and using B52s to
bomb areas around Saigon are clear evidence pointing out that the
Nixon administration while talking about peace is seeking all ways
to prolong and step up the war efforts.''
    Despite a partial U.S. bombing halt above the 20th parallel, Hanoi
claimed that American air strikes below the parallel against Vinh
and Dong Hoi cities and a number of villages in the southern
panhandle killed and wounded hundreds of civilians and caused heavy
property damage.
    The North Vietnamese Foreign Ministry issued an official statement
condemning the United States.
    U.S. military sources said the South Vietnamese Air Force
will have received as many as 400 new aircraft by mid-November.
These include F5, A37 and A1 fighter-bombers, Chinook helicopters
and four-engine C130 transports. The shipments began Thursday.
    A1 fighter-bombers began arriving today by ship and were being
unloaded at the big American-built Newport docks just outside of
Saigon.
    Dismantled F5s were being hauled into Bien Hao Air Base, 15
miles northeast of Saigon, by giant C5A transports.
    More equipment was flowing into Saigon's Tan Son Nhut Air Base.
Thirty of the big Chinook helicopters were at the base, being
assembled.
    The F5 fighter planes are coming from Iran, Taiwan and South Korea.
The Pentagon said these countries have agreed to supply the F5s from
their inventories under a barter arrangement because the model is in
short supply in the United States.

    The Pentagon did not say how the United States would replace the
aircraft, but indicated this could be done with newer F5s in the
future or possibly F4 Phantoms.
    ''We want to give President Thieu the strength to hold off North
Vietnam after the U.S. withdraws,'' said one U.S. official
in explaining the buildup.
    A draft peace agreement worked out last month in Paris between the
United States and North Vietnam stipulates the parties may replace
existing military equipment only on a one-to-one basis once the
agreement is signed.
    U.S. sources said the increase in the size of the Vietnamese Air
Force by at least 25 per cent was aimed at inducing President Thieu
to accept a modified cease-fire plan. He has balked at some
provisions and has insisted among other things that
all North Vietnamese forces be withdrawn from the South.
    Meanwhile, U.S. B52 bombers kept up heavy raids in the southern
panhandle of North Vietnam. The raids were staged to crush a
Communist attempt to beat any cease-fire and get supplies into South
Vietnam. About 30 B52 bombers struck in the North
against supply caches and troop positions.
    Ground fighting appeared to have tapered off slightly for
the first time in 10 days. The Saigon command reported slightly
less than 100 attacks for the first time in the 10-day period.
    Government forces stopped a sapper attack on the U.S. Army Base at
Long Binh, 12 miles northeast of Saigon, which is scheduled to be
turned over to the South Vietnamese by Dec. 1. Three sappers were
stopped in the base's ammunition depot before they could set off
dynamite charges. One was killed and one was captured, field reports
said. The third escaped.
    Fighting broke out again along Highway 13, just north of
the provincial capital of Phu Cuong, 13 miles north of Saigon.
    On the northern coast, some South Vietnamese troops broke
and ran in heavy fighting at San Juan Hill, a fire base and
ranger group headquarters in Quang Ngai province 90 miles
south of Danang. Field sources said the ''disorderly withdrawal''
involved one platoon of rangers which had suffered heavy casualties.
    San Juan Hill has been under repeated enemy shelling and ground
attacks since Thursday. At last report today, it was still in
government hands, defended by more than 400 South Vietnamese
rangers.

were married Friday night in a city municipal building.
    Taylor, who ranks as a pop singer-songwriter superstar, announced
his marriage at a three-hour concert which began at midnight
Friday at Radio City Music Hall.
    He first walked on stage with his left hand jammed awkwardly

hand around to show off a gold band on the ring finger.
    ''It's rather sensational,'' Taylor said, after the applause which
greeted his announcement. ''I don't know whether to be more nervous
about the concert or the marriage.'' The new Mrs. Taylor, in a
sweater and long skirt, took a bow with her husband after he had
sung an encore.
    Her late father was a cofounder of Simon and Schuster, book
publishers, and her sister Joanna is an opera singer. Taylor's
father is a doctor and professor of medicine in North Carolina.
He has two brothers and a sister, Alex, Livingston and Kate,
who are also pop singers.
    It is a first marriage for each, both in their twenties.

    WASHINGTON (AP) - Dr. Manson Benedict of the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology has won the Atomic Energy Commission's
1972 Fermi award for various nuclear achievements.
    Benedict will receive the $25,000 award late this year, the AEC
announced Friday, for achievements including leadership in the
creation of the world's first gaseous diffusion plant that still
produces fissionable uranium for weapons and power
plant fuel at Oak Ridge, Tenn.
    Benedict, head of the nuclear engineering department at MIT.,
received a message from President Nixon ''paying tribute to
your imaginative contributions in the development of the nuclear
reactor and its safe use for the generation of electric power.''

 Chilean 220
    SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) - The leftist government of President Salvador
Allende says things may be back to normal Monday after weeks of
strikes. As a gesture of good will the strict midnight-to-6 a.m.
curfew in Santiago was shortened by an hour and began at 1 a.m.
    Gen. Carlos Prats, Allende's new interior minister, met all day
Friday with strike leaders in an attempt to end Chile's labor
paralysis and both sides declared the ''talks are on the right
track.'' Prats said there could be a settlement within 48 hours.
    Prats was appointed two days ago in a move to molify the strikers.
Allende completed his 15-member cabinet reshuffle Friday by
appointing an independent leftist, Dr. Arturo Jiron, as minister of
public health.
    The Marxist president also celebrated his second anniversary in
office and urged workers in a nationwide broadcast to produce
more, save more and consume less.
    He said that his government ''aware of having made mistakes-who
doesn't-but we are willing to correct them.''
    The strike began Oct. 10 when negotiations broke down between
truckers and the government over higher cargo rates and the reported
formation of a state-owned trucking fleet. In the following deys
other groups joined the truckers and the work stoppage became a
general protest against Allende's plans to turn Chile socialist.

 Train Wreck 250
    CHICAGO (AP) - ''I did everything I could to stop the train
and avoid the crash,'' said Robert W. Cavanaugh, 43, the engineer
of the train which rammed into another train last Monday south
of the Loop leaving 44 persons dead.
    Cavanaugh's remarks Friday in a brief interview at his bedside at
Billings Hospital were reported in today's editions of the
Chicago Tribune.
    Cavanaugh, who was seriously injured, gave the following
account in a whisper.
    His train, consisting of six old-type cars, was traveling
at 60 to 65 miles per hour when it passed a green signal at
the 35th Street station.
    At 31st street, the signal was yellow and Cavanaugh complied by
applying the brakes to slow down to the prescribed 35 m.p.h.
    Then, seeing the forward train backing up, Cavanaugh applied
the brakes with such force that he broke the brake lever.
    Meanwhile, the Illinois Central Gulf Railroad announced Friday
it will try to reconstruct operating conditions which existed
at the time of the wreck.
    Two trains carrying railroad and federal officials will be
run Sunday morning over the same route of the two trains which
traveled to a collision.
    The run is being conducted as part of a continuing investigation
into the causes of the crash.
    Sixty-four of the more than 300 injured remain in hospitals.

 Peking-Vietnam 210
    TOKYO (AP) - China accused the United States today of attempting to
prolong the war in Vietnam by rushing war supplies to Saigon while
delaying the signing of a cease-fire agreement.
    The accusation was made by Peking's official Hsinhua news agency in
a broadcast monitored in Tokyo.
    Hsinhua said ''The U.S. government has speeded up the
transportation of large quantities of military material to Saigon to
step up the armaments of the South Vietnamese puppet clique in the
past few days, while delaying the signing of 'The Agreement on
Ending the War and Restoring Peace in Vietnam.'
    ''This is to carry on the 'war Vietnamization program' and
prolong the aggressive war against Vietnam.''
    Quoting U.S. news agencies reporting from Saigon, Hsinhua said:
''On Nov. 2 alone, four C-130 transport planes were flown to Tan Son
Nhut air base. . .''They were immediately turned over to the puppet
air force.
    ''After the fifth C-130 transport plane flew to Saigon on the
morning of Nov. 3, South Vietnamese puppet military sources said 14
more of the transports were due in throughout the day Friday''.
    Hsinhua said: ''It was also reported that U.S. A37 attack bombers
are being flown to Saigon and turned over to the puppet air force.''

 Immigration 200
    OTTAWA (AP) - Canada has suspended the right of visitors to apply
for permanent residency while inside the country because the ''naive
and gullible,'' need protection, Immigration Minister Bryce Mackasey
announced.
    Suspension of the three-year-old provision to the immigration
law effective Friday and applies to all visitors who did not
submit their applications before noon of that day.
    Mackasey said Friday the provision enabled ''unscrupupulous
people'' to take foreigners' life savings in return for a trip to
Canada. He said that foreigners have been sold airplane tickets with
the promise they could come to Canada as visitors and later
qualify as immigrants.
    Visitors awaiting appeals for immigration, he said, seek
work ''to the detriment of Canadians who need employment and
in many cases to themselves.''
    Abuses of the provison have increased recently because foreigners
anticipated tighter immigrantion regulations in legislation
promised for the fall, Mackasey said, he added that a backlog
of appeal cases has built up.
    Mackasey said that of the 120,000 landed immigrants accepted
last year, 40,000 applied from within the country.

 Phony Speech 240
    SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A release purporting to be an address on
Vietnam by Sen. George McGovern was distributed to news media but
discovered to be a fake before anyone used it, says a spokesman for
the Democratic presidential candidate.
    ''The basic response we got is that it was summarily dismissed as
an obvious fabrication,'' Henry Weinstein, McGovern's Northern
California press secretary, said Friday.
    Weinstein said the mimeographed speech was on ''McGovern-Shriver
News'' letterheads which he said apparently were stolen from
his office here.
    He said a man had delivered a copy to San Francisco educational
television station KQED, where he informed newsmen that ''he wrote
it himself and had ripped off the paper from our headquarters.''
''The man said he had passed out about 100 copies, Weinstein said.
    The 11-page bogus speech, entitled ''A Bitter Story,'' contends
that United States involvement in Vietnam is predicated on a profit
motive.
    At one point it said: ''The truth, my fellow Americans, is that it
is the Ho Chi Minhs and not the Richard Nixons who defend freedom in
this world. And unless we finally learn that bitter lesson and take
more care with our political processes, the future will go badly for
this great nation of ours.''
    Weinstein said the incident was not reported to the police and he
knew of no instance of the speech being printed or broadcast.

 CBS Strike 380
    NEW YORK (AP) - Supervisory personnel filled in today for Columbia
Broadcasting System cameramen, technicians and engineers who are on
strike over failure to reach agreement with the network on a new
contract.
    A CBS spokesman said early today the walkout Friday had not
interrupted prime time programming Friday night and the only changes
expected involved coverage Sunday of two professional football
games.
    CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite and network correspondents, reporters
and sportscasters, all members of another union, were not honoring
the picket lines, the spokesman said.
    The strike coincides with last-minute preparations for coverage
of the presidential election next Tuesday. A dress rehearsal
went ahead Friday night without the striking employes.
    The walkout was called by the Radio and Television Broadcast
Engineers Union, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
A spokesman said the union has 1,200 members at CBS.
    They operate a variety of technical equipment used to get
programs on the air.
    The walkout affects CBS-owned radio and television stations
here and in Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis, Mo.,
Los Angeles and San francisco.
    The principal issue in the dispute concerns the jurisdiction
the union will have in technological areas, including the
use of a new vidoe-tape editing system. The old contract expired
Oct. 1 and negotiations on a new three-year pact broke off Tuesday.
    Vice President Spiro T. Agnew and Sen. George McGovern were
scheduled to appear on the CBS Sunday interview show ''Face the
Nation.'' How the strike would effect their plans was not known.
    The network claims the strike, if it lasts, will not hamper
election night coverage because the cameras to be used are already
fixed in place and the supervisors are familiar with the equipment.
However, the striking employes also service the computers with which
CBS plans to project the winners of major races.
    The network said it had cancelled coverage of the Dallas at San
Diego and the St. Louis at Philadelphia football games and that the
National Football League was making other arrangements
to televise those games in Dallas and St. Louis. CBS coverage
of five other games was unchanged, he said.

 Irish 350
    BELFAST, Northern Ireland (AP) - The pilot of an airliner flying
from Northern Ireland to Scotland late Friday quickly cut his
altitude until he could safely open a cockpit window and toss a
suspected bomb into the sea.
    A spokesman for British European Airways said the device was tossed
from the Viscount turboprop while the plane was about 20 minutes
from Glasgow on a flight from Belfast. He said 71 passengers were on
board.
    A stewardess found the 7-inch-long object on the floor between the
passenger compartment and the galley. It was slightly bent like a
banana and covered with what appeared to be string beneath a
translucent plastic coating. A wire stuck out from it, the
BEA spokesman said.
    ''I couldn't identify it. But I thought it could have been
a pencil bomb,'' said Capt. Bill Lawrence, 30. ''This is a
sensitive service from Belfast and I wanted to be ultrasafe.''
    In Belfast meanwhile, British troops discovered 350 pounds
of explosives beneath a road in the Roman Catholic Falls district.
A spokesman siad the explosives were packed into two plashic
garbage cans placed beneath a manhole.
    A 13-year-old boy was grazed on the head by a bullet while he lay
asleep in bed. The bullet strayed from an exchange of fire in the
street outside between soldiers and a band of guerrillas, the army
said.
    The army also said it arrested three leaders of the Provisional
wing of the Irish Republican Army. Two men were seized after a gun
fight in the Roman Catholic Clonard district and another was
arrested earlier in the Bogside district of Londonderry,
a former IRA stronghold.
    In the Irish Republic, Parliament gave final approval for
a referendum on whether or not to remove the Catholic church
from its special position in the constitution. The plebiscite
will probably be Dec. 6.
    Removal of the church's special position is viewed by some as a
first step to closer ties with Ulster, where Protestants
outnumber Catholics 2-to-1.

 German-Soviet 280
    MOSCOW (AP) - More than 300 Soviet citizens of German origin
have received permission during the past week to return to
Germany, West german sources report.
    They said some of the Germans-mostly farm and factory workers-had
waited years for an exit visa.
    So far this year the weekly average of those allowed to rejoin
their relatives in West Germany had been only 50 to 70, according
to the Red Cross in Bonn.
    The sources said the West German Embassy had no advance warning
such a large number of Germans would be allowed to return
home this week.
    The Germans' sudden arrival in Moscow from various parts of
the Soviet Union coincided with preparations for the Nov. 7
anniversary celebration of the Bolshevik Revolution.
    The Germans found most of the hotels full. Many are sleeping and
eating at the West German Embassy until their documents are in
order.
    Most of the emigrants will travel by train, the sources said, but
the embassy is trying to obtain air trickets for hardship cases.
    There are estimated to 1.8 million Gecmans here who wish to join
relatives in West Germany. Their repatriation has been repeatedly
raised by West German politicians in talks with Soviet leaders.
8Bonn's special envoy, Dr. Egon Bahr, was understood to have
raised the question during his meeting last month with the
Soviet Communist party chief, Leonid I. Brezhnev.
    About 26,000 Soviet citizens of German origin have been repatriated
since the end of World War II. Between 1967 and 1970 only about 30 a
month were allowed out, but the rate rose to about 100 a month last
year.

Associated Press Writer
    SAIGON (AP) - The United States rushed more warplanes to South
Vietnam today in the war's biggest military aid effort. U.S. sources
said the buildup will make the South Vietnamese air force the third
largest in the world, with more than 2,000 aircraft.
    U.S. military sources reported North Vietnam also was building up
war stockpiles just north of the demilitarized zone. The sources
said the North Vietnamese are repairing the Ho Chi Minh supply route
in Laos after recent monsoon rains. But the sources said there were
no indications of any major movement of supplies along the trail and
no large infiltration of troops.
    The sources also reported units of the North Vietnamese 5th
division had moved from the Parrot's Beak section of Cambodia into
the Plain of Reeds in the northern Mekong Delta of South Vietnam.
They speculated the move might be an effort to gain a toehold in
South Vietnam prior to the signing of a cease-fire.
    Meanwhile, China and North Vietnam assailed the Nixon
administration for staging a big buildup in the South while delaying
the signing of a cease-fire.

 Siberian Gas 400
    HOUSTON (AP) - A billion dollar deal to swap liquefied natural gas
from the Soviet Union for U.S. goods and services is within 60 days
of signing, according to three Houston firms.
    Texas Eastern Transmission Corp., Brown & Root, Inc., and Tenneco,
Inc., said they expected to conclude work on the 25-year agreement
to import two billion cubic feet of natural gas a day from Siberian
gas fields to the East Coast of the United States.
    They also are talking with the Soviet Union and Japanese interests
of another deal - this one to import liquified natural gas from
Eastern Siberia to the U.S. West Coast and Japan, spokesmen said.
    The three Houston firms said they will spend $2.5 billion in terms
of 1972 dollar value to build pipelines, compressor stations and
liquefaction plants in the Soviet Union as part of the East Coast
deal.
    They would invest $1.8 billion in 20 tankers to carry the
natural gas from the Soviet Union to this country.
    Financing for the gigantic deal is being worked out by First
National City Bank of New York and the Bank of America, the
three firms said.
    The Texas group refused to say just how much the entire scheme
would cost. There has been speculation that the whole program
would run from $30 billion to $45 billion.
    The Soviet Union would pay for the facilities built in that country
with natural gas, the announcement said. After all costs are
paid, about $10 billion more in natural gas would be imported,
they said, but no cash would be paid to the Soviet Union.
    Instead that country would use the money to buy goods and
services in the United States.
    ''A capital investment required for the importation of such
quantities will be considerable, ''the announcement by the three
firms said. ''However, in addition to significant contributions
to the future energy supply, the project will have a positive
effect on the nation's economy through the creation of thousands
of jobs for Americans with no significant drain on the nation's
balance of payments.''
    Brown & Root is one of the world's largest engineering and
construction firms and has been very active in the oil and
gas construction business. Texas Eastern is the only natural
gas interstate pipeline operator serving both the East and
West Coasts. Tenneco has gas transmission lines extending
from Texas to the Midwest and New England.

 School 350
    NEW YORK (AP) - A white boycott of schools in the Canarsie section
of Brooklyn could be ended Monday if the central Board of Education
restores the district board's authority, according to local board
members.
    A statement issued Friday by Jack Zimmer, president of Brooklyn's
District 18 board, blamed the central board for stirring up the feud
surrounding the admission of 31 black and Puerto Rican students to
an integrated junior high school.
    The statement, signed by a majority of local board members, said
the central board had engaged in ''unwarranted interference'' in the
district and it called for the removal of a trustee appointed to
insure the safety of the minority group students.
    The children, residents of the Tilden Houses project in
Brownsville, entered Junior High School 211 Friday without
incident as white parents abided by a decision to stop their
demonstration pending efforts to settle the dispute.
    A week-long boycott by white students remained in force, however,
with only 767 pupils, most of them black attending classes in the
district's eight schools, which serve about 9,700 students.
    Schools chancellor Harvey B. Scribner said he would remove the
trustee from the district as soon as the local board gave its
assurance the Brownsville pupils would be allow to remain safely at
JHS 211.
    The local board also agreed Friday to formulate a plan to rezone
the area's three junior high schools with the goal of integrating
one which is nearly all white ''to the maximum extent feasible.''
    Parents at JHS 211, which is 70 per cent white, have been
vigorously opposed to the central board's order to enroll the Tilden
children in their school, which is outside the Brownsville district.
    They say they are concerned with maintaining local control and 
voiding ''tipping'' the racial balance in the schools. In its
statement, the local board said it had been deprived
of its influence in the community.
    Efforts were being made to set up a meeting with Scribner
and white parents over the weekend and several officials expressed
optimism that an agreement might be nearing.

 Pound-Inflation 180
    LONDON (AP) - Prime Minister Edward Heath was expected to announce
an emergency wage and price controls plan Monday to head off an
inflationary crisis and steady the badly weakened pound.
    Heath met with his cabinet Friday to draft the measures, which will
be revealed before the House of Commons. Unconfirmed reports
suggested a six-month freeze on wages and prices was likely.
    Legal controls became almost inevitable when talks between Heath
and trade union and industry leaders on voluntary wage and price
restraints broke off Thursday night in a deadlock.
    The prediction of inflation controls helped steady the pound
sterling at $2.3455 in late trading on the Foreign Exchange market
Friday. But even so the pound has still lost 10 per cent of its
purchasing power since it was freed from its old fixed exchange rate
of $2.60 in June and allowed to float down.
    A further drop could weaken other currencies and ignite another
international monetary crisis. Financial sources blamed British
inflation, which leads all western Europe at about 10 per
cent a year, as the major cause of the pound's weakness.

 Germanys 270
    BERLIN (AP) - Parallel dialogues aimed at normalizing the status
quo in divided Germany resumed in East and West Berlin today.
    The ambassadors of World War II's four victor powers met in West
Berlin to discuss their rights and responsibilities should East and
West Germany enter the United Nations.
    Basic treaty negotiations between the two Germanys, resuming
today across the wall in East Berlin, will help determine whether
they are admitted to the United Nations.
    The chairman of today's four-power meeting, the eighth in two
weeks, is the Soviet ambassador to East Germany, Mikhail Yefremov.
    His Western counterparts are Martin Hillenbrand of the United
States, Jean Sauvagnargues of France, and Sir Nicholas Henderson
of Great Britain, all envoys to West Germany.
    West German State Secretary Egon Bahr met with the three Western
ambassadors before going to East Berlin to resume his dialogue with
East German State Secretary Michael Kohl.
    Bahr said earlier questions of a fundamental nature still remain to
be resolved. He said his series of meetings could stretch to Monday.
He is to go to Bonn Sunday to report to his government.
    Tuesday, the West German Chancellor, Willy Brandt is scheduled
to tell the nation the status of the talks.
    Recognition of East Germany, which the Communist side insists on,
and representation of West Berlin abroad, were understood to be the
central topics of the two discussions.
    West Germany has Western backing for its desire to represent West
Berlin internationally, including at the United Nations, while the
Communists want to treat West Berlin as a separate state.

    MARTIGUES, France (AP) - Explosions today aboard a vessel loading
fuel in this petroleum port caused a fire that destroyed the loading
dock, but firemen prevented the blaze from reaching the rest of the
installations.
    The vessel was taking aboard 1,000 tons of fuel when a leak in the
fuel lines set off the fire. Two men were slightly wounded, police
reported.
    First reports the fire had spread to the nearby refinery of the
Compagnie Francaise de Raffinage were prompted by the 150-foot
flames that shot up over the dock area.
    The vessel was towed 600 feet from the dock and fireboats

    Hans Georg Steltzer's presentation was originally set for
September, but was delayed twice after the Munich Olympics massacre

    Narc's Park 450
By MORT ROSENBLUM
Associated Press Writer
    SURABAYA, Indonesia (AP) - If San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury
has changed, what about Ed Crowell, the narcotics officer?
He's running an amusement park in the middle of Indonesia.
    ''I love it,'' says Crowell, 40. He has a Mickey Mouse watch
on his wrist and a batik dinner jacket in his closet.
    Crowell, originally from Denver, was chief narcotics and probation
officer of Santa Cruz County, Calif. He was in Haight-Ashbury, on
loan to San Francisco, at the height of the flower children season.
    ''I was your friendly neighborhood narc,'' he laughs. ''But after
10 years of working outside and helping people, where there was a
challenge, I was suddenly buried in paperwork . . . so I quit.''
    After bumming a while, he says, he heard East Java's amusement park
needed a manager. He had been a commercial pilot, a builder, a
beachcomber and a dozen other things, he figured, so why not?
    The park, owned by Hong Kong interests, had already gone through
five managers in seven months so he couldn't do too badly, he
decided.
    Crowell, with a master's degree in psychology from the University
of Arizona, has used some old engineering skills. He also has
applied his experiences at Disneyland, where he once was a
consultant helping devise ways of keeping juvenile delinquents
from hanging around.
    In 18 months he brought up attendance by 20 per cent and
completely transformed the park in downtown Surabaya.
    He added games, food stands and rides-sometimes restoring cast-offs
from a failed Hong Kong park. A crowd of 33,000 attracted by a rock
band derailed the monorail and wiped out the gardens.
    ''My guys make the difference-they can do anything,'' he says of
his Indonesian staff. ''I showed them a picture of Snow White's
castle and went on a trip. When I came back, it not only had the
right number of turrets, but it looked a little like a mosque.''
    It's a far cry from the Santa Cruz amusement park where he used to
meet drug offenders and sneak an occasional ride when waiting for an
appointment.
    ''I liked what I did before, it was like you were at war
20 hours a day with your adrenalin always up,'' he said. ''But
this is something totally different, and it's fun, too.''
    ''I've always enjoyed amusement parks,'' said Crowell. ''When
things are quiet here, or when we're closing up, I still like
to go up in the bomber plane . . .
    ''Once I was standing over there by the monorail, musing about
some plans, and I was licking an ice cream cone, just like
a little kid. An old Chinese woman came up and smiled and,
'You must really like it here, I sure see you a lot'.''

 Hanoi Reaction 360, Two Takes 610
    SAIGON (AP) - North Vietnam today accused President Nixon of a
''double-dealing attitude,'' charging he dangled the prospect of
peace before the American public and then 
claimed further
discussions were required with Hanoi.
    ''The double-dealing attitude of the Nixon administration in the
settlement of the Vietnam question has become clearer and clearer,''
the official Voice of Vietnam Radio said in a commentary carried by
Hanoi's Vietnam News Agency.
    The commentary declared:
    ''By refusing to sign the agreement on ending the war and restoring
peace in Vietnam as agreed upon between the Democratic Republic of
Vietnam and the United States, the Nixon administration has revealed
more and more its sinister design of sabotaging a peace settlement
of the Vietnam problem, draggig on the war of aggression and
maintaining the U.S. neocolonialist rule in South Vietnam.
    ''In his speech of Nov. 2, President Nixon, after dangling the
prospect of peace before the American people, clamored he needed
further discussions with the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.''
    In a nationwide radio and television address Thursday night,
Nixon said that the United States had reached substantial
agreement on most of the terms of a settlement, but that there
were still some issues to be resolved.
    ''I have insisted that these be settled before we sign the
final agreement,'' he said. ''That is why we refused to be
stampeded into meeting the arbitrary deadline of Oct. 31.''
    North Vietnam said that Nixon's claim that Oct. 31 was an
arbitrary deadline was ''preposterous.''
    ''Nobody has forced the United States to sign at that date,'' the
Voice of Vietnam Commentary said. ''Both the contents of the
agreement and the timetable for what should be done to sign the
agreement have been mutually agreed upon. It is the United States
itself that has three times proposed to alter the time table. The
third time, President Nixon himself, in his message to the premier
of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, confirmed that the texts of
the agreement could be considered complete and proposed Oct. 31 as
the date of the signing.''

    The broadcast said U.S. presidential adviser Henry A. Kissinger
told an Oct. 26 news conference the issues to be resolved were less
important than those already agreed on and could be worked out in a
very brief period of time.
    The North Vietnamese radio commentary said that in his address
Thursday night, Nixon declared the remaining difficulties concerned
central points. This, the commentary said, is ''contrary to the
impression given by Henry Kissinger.''
    The voice of Vietnam then asked:
    ''Is this a move on the American side to prepare public opinion to
ultimately renounce its commitment altogether, completely sabotage
the settlement of the Vietnam War which the American side has agreed
upon and confirmed through the messages sent by the U.S. President
to the prime minister of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam?''
    The commentary concluded:
    ''The Vietnamese people want to make clear to the Nixon
administration that it can never get away with its ugly maneuvers.
In the face of the U.S. aggressors design to drag on the war, the
Vietnamese people forcefully denounce their treacherous and
double-dealing attitude, and reaffirm their determination to step up
their just struggle till complete victory.
    ''The Nixon administration must bear full responsibility before the
American people and the people all over the world for the failure to
bring about an early end to this bloody war.''

 Earplugs 210
    DANANG, South Vietnam (AP) - After years of clamorous battle
in Vietnam, the U.S. Army has decreed that troops should all
wear earplugs to shut out the noise.
    Unit commanders here have been ordered to impress upon their
men the dangers posed by din and decibels.
    ''It has long been recognized that continual exposure to
high intensity noise may cause permanent loss of hearing,''
noted the acting adjutant general, Lt. Col. J. St. Onge.
    ''The resulting disability may seriously impair the individual's
future military or civilian career,'' he warned.
    St. Onge has posted orders for each unit commander to earmark
two ''responsible individuals'' as earplug-fitting specialists,
adding that training will be provided and no previous experience
is required.
    Because ears come in such a variety of shapes and sizes, St. Onge
says some soldiers may have to wait before they can effectively
stuff them up. Unit commanders therefore should draw up a list of
personnel exposed to the loudest noises, he instructed.
    Initial reports indicate no wild stampede for the Army's earplugs.
''The order might be said to have fallen on deaf ears,'' quipped one
GI jokester.

    Ramos also said special punitive measures are being taken in the

be arrested for not cooperating with the government's firearms ban.
    A total of 410,000 illegal firearms have been turned in or seized
by the government since martial law was proclaimed six weeks ago,
Ramos said, and more than 1 1/2 million rounds of ammunition have been
picked up.
    Most of the guns turned in after the deadline were surrendered
through the religious leaders of the communities, Ramos added.
    He said the constabulary has provided garbage cans where the banned
weapons may be dropped by their owners without any questions from
the authorities.
    Under the new society, Ramos said, ''long, high-powered weapons
are considered garbage.''
    Guns figured in more than 80 per cent of the crimes throughout
the country before martial law.

    The Pyongyang talks were the third such conference since
the July 4 announcement that the North and South would work
for peaceful reunifiction.
    This week's conference was originally scheduled for Thursday
only, but was extended until today. The two sides held a predawn
final session to iron out differences in the wording of their
joint statement and agreement, officials said.
    The next session of the North-South talks is set for Nov.

    Uruguay 320, Two Takes 540
    MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (AP) - Uruguay's traditionally neutral armed
forces have plunged into the country's political-judicial life to
punish any high-level corruption that is substantiated.
    Many Uruguayans welcome an effort to snare economic wheelers and
dealers, but they wonder if the armed forces' won't seek more power.
    ''The bigger a bear gets, the more appetite he has,'' one
businessman said.
    Last April when Congress declared ''internal war'' against the
leftist Tupamaro guerrillas all police powers were given to the
military. Trials of Tupamaro suspects were shifted from
civil to army courts.
    By September the army had an upper hand over the Tupamaros. Then
the general said crimes against the economy were just
as subversive as violence.
    Much of the material that swayed the generals reportedly
came from Tupamaro hideouts raided by troops. The guerrillas
had built thick dossiers on financial deals.
    Army men pressed President Juan M. Bordaberry to create a
commission against economic crimes composed of a general,
two colonels, two rear admirals and two civilians.
    Rumors spread that a number of persons were being embarrassed
by investigations. Then, within a week's time, two cases involving
old economic scandals burst across the country. The first led
all 11 Cabinet ministers to resign.
    The second was linked to one of Uruguay's wealthiest families.
    Earlier Jorge Batlle Ibanez, a 45-year-old lawyer and head
of a major faction of the ruling Colorado party, was accused
of profiting from a 1968 devaluation of the peso by knowing
of the plan in advance. A court acquitted him.
    Batlle Ibanez, to counter rumors, went on television Oct. 25 and
denied there had been any wrongdoing. Then he charged that two army
officers had illegally taken a court clerk from his house, demanding
records of the Batlle Ibanez' trial, but the clerk refused.

    His suggestion that the army could act illegally infuriated the
generals. Bordaberry eventually agreed that Batlle Ibanez could be
summoned for questioning by a military court. Next day the army
announced he was charged with ''attacking the moral strength of the
armed forces.''
    Last week another case was reopened. It involved a former
foreign minister, Jorge Peirano Facio, his brother Juan, and
three other former bank executives.
    A civil court judge summoned Jorge Peirano Facio for questioning
and ordered the others detained in a case involving a $10-million
government loan two years ago.
    Although the matter came through the civil court, there was
no doubt it had been revived because of the military's interest.
    In Senate speeches last year some legislators contended the
government loan to the Mercantil Bank for foreign trade transactions
had been funneled into other firms controlled by the bank. The
Mercantil Bank was owned by the wealthy Peirano family until 1970
when bankruptcy threatened and the government took it over. Jorge
Peirano Facio was its president until he was named foreign minister
by a former president, Jorge Pacheco Areco. His brother, also had
served as bank president.

Rebel 400 Two Takes Total 700
By FORD BURKHART
Associated Press Writer
    UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP) - A rebel chief from Africa says
he cherishes the heritage of Portugal - even while killing
Portuguese troops.
    Amilcar Cabral promises to proclaim a new nation in West Africa.
But Its foreign policy, he says, will be pro-Portugal.
    For 10 years, Cabral has fought for the independence of Portuguese
Guinea. Last year, he said, his troops killed 912 Portuguese
soldiers. He declares: ''The simple people of Portugal are
good. They are with us. The soldiers are just mercenaries
paid for each battle.''
    Cabral wants the area to achieve a status something like
Brazil - independent yet linked to Lisbon by Language and culture.
    ''I would never change my Portuguese name even though I renounced
Portuguese citizenship many years ago,'' he observes.
    Cabral made a propaganda splash here delivering an hour-long
plea for support for his revolutionary movement.
    But diplomats question whether it brought any closer the
end of guerrilla war in Guinea.
    The war seems to have reached a stalemate, observers here
say. Portugal controls cities, rebels control the forests.
Both sides appear to receive arms from outside, maintaning
a rough balance of power.
    Cabral's forest army is said to include 5,000 men in uniform
and 5,000 men and women peasant-soldiers. He asserts they
control two thirds of the territory of Portuguese Guinea - roughly
the size of New Jersey.
    Cabral's movement has seemed to follow a pro-Soviet line
in the split between China and Russia. But after a few days
of intense lobbying for support in the halls of the United
Nations, Cabral said: ''More than ever, we know we have to
be strictly nonaligned and independent. We don't like labels.
We are not Communist, or Socialist - we are African. Our nation
comes out of African historic conditions.''
    Cabral did achieve an historic first here. His was the first
appearance by a ''rebel observer'' with official U.N. status.
    He told the 132-member Trust Territories Committee his new
nation would include the 15 Cape Verde islands, 300 miles
northwest of Guinea.
