Bows to Pressure Muskie, bowing to pressure rom his rivals, reversed his jrevious position and agreed to disclose the sources of his cam- laign funds in three stages, Parting with a report within 10 lays on contributions between an. 4, when he declared his candidacy, and Sunday. Humphrey, appearing on NBC's "Meet the Press" said he expe-ts to do very well. 'I think we have good momentum and I believe that I'm he only progressive candidate that has a chance to beat Mr. Wallace," said the Minnesota Democrat, who needs a strong showing in Florida to overcome a "loser" image resulting from his 1968 defeat to President Nixon.

Wallace, however, said on the ABC program "Issues and Answers" that "I believe that I will be the winner on Tuesday." If he wins, he said, he will enter a string of other primaries and campaign all the way to California's June 6 winner-take-all primary that will net 'the 271 convention votes, 18 per cent of what is needed for the nomination. Jackson, whose candidacy has probably suffered most from Wallace's candidacy be- jause of the Alabama governor's strong antibusing stand, said he started out way behind Humphrey and Muskie "and now I'm all bunched up with them. "If I beat either Humphrey or Muskie down here, Scoop moving up," he said, adding that although he had talked earlier about dropping his bid if he failed to do well in Florida, he now plans to stick in to the finish.

The South Vietnamese command reported 33 eneimy attacks in Vietnam, almost half of tlhettt by rockets and mortars, between 6 a.m.

Sunday and 6 a.m. today. More than lalf a dozen ground engage" ments were reported. Incomplete reports said 19 South Vietnamese troops were killed and 89 wounded. The Saigon command claimed 137 North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops killed.

The Vietnamese reported a four-hour fight in eastern Cambodia 75 miles northwest of Saigon, where government troops launched a new drive last Friday. Headquarters reported 11 eneimy troops and two government soldiers killed and 16 South Vietnamese wounded. The South Vietnamese force also captured five Cambodian Communist guerrillas hiding inside a bunker near a forward command post seven miles northwest of Kompong Trach. One of the prisoners said his mission was to guide North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops. He said about 200 of these had fled when' they observed South Vietnamese helicopters ferrying in materials to a new fire base.

The U.S. Comima'nd announced that American troops strength in South Vietnam dropped 5,100 men last week to 114,500. It was biggest weekly cut since Jan. 21-27, when 7,200 men wer withdrawn. In northern Laos, North Vietnamese forces captured Sam Thong base and tightened their siege on Long Cheng, six miles to the southeast, sources in Vientiane said.

Military sources said highly accurate enemy artillery had closed the airstrip at Long Cheng base again and had forced evacuation of Thai and Laotian forces over the weekend from positions east of Sam Thong, six miles northwest of Long Cheng. In southern Laos, North Vietnamese troops were reported to have driven wii'thin 13 miles of Pakse, while Laotian units reoccupied the village of Keng Nhao, 20 miles northeast of Pakse, and captured three tracks containing ammunition. Lon Nol (Continued from Page 1) would have created "disorder throughout the country." Sirilk Matak and the cabinet resigned Sunday, but shortly afterward Lon Nol announced that he had dismissed theim, effective Wednesday. Diplomats speculated whether Sirik Matak would be left out of the new government. Matak's ouster would meet demands of student leaders.

The students blame Matak for the government's failure to push back Che Vietnamese Communists who, according to military estimates, control at least half of Cambodia's 'territory. WKftlfi VOC?

Young Voters Demonstrate Independence of Parties By TERRY RYAN Associated Press Writer The nation's 11 million 18-to- 20-year-olds are demonstrating a streak oj independence as they register to vote. Though figures in many states ar only estimates, election officials around the country report a lairge percentage of the new young voters-up to 69 per cent in are spurning the major parties to enroll as independent or nonipartisan voters, "Young people have simply lost faith in the traditional parties," said Leonard Slosky, a student who lobbies in the Colorado Legislature for his campus colleagues.

"They are not interested in participating in politics at the party level." The Associated Press sampling also found on the average somewhere between 25 and 30 per cent of the eligible young people have already registered, with substantially higher registration in some urban areas, Among young people opting to register in the major parties, the sampling among election officials found that on the average two were signing up as Democrats for each registering Republican, The tendency of youmg voters to register in significant numbers as independents was noted in the natonwide sampling of election officials by The ated Press, The trend was backed up by reports that the new voters were more interested in gandidates and. issues than party labels, In 1970, the last year for which national figures are available, less than 10 per cent of those registered were on the rolls as ind.epend, Election officials in Con' oWcut estimated that half the new young voters have regis-. tered as jfldepend'ents. A vey a( the University of Wash- ington found that 52 per cent of the students said they had or would register as independents. Denver and Boulder counties in Colorado reported 6,654 young voters regfetered as independents, compared with 3,373 as Democrats and 1,111 as Republicans.

Registration figures in the three most populous counties of Wyoming showed 1,125 youths registered as independents, while 498 filed as Democrats and 435 as Republicans, Opinion on importance of the you till vote varies widely: "There is no question they will have a real imipact on the elections," said James Neal, Republican state chairman of Indiana, "I see no reason they would not respond overwhelmingly," "I don't think they will have a major influence," said Floyd Hart, Republican chainman in Oregon. "They will be just as diverse as the rest of us." There is a clear possibility, however, that young voters could have immense impact on the election of the next president, JUTE PORT DUNDEE, Scotland (AP) Dundee, for many years headquarters of the jute industry in Britain, is likely to become tho only port for the unloading of jute goods from India and Pakistan. Hitherto, London, Liverpool and Avonmouth (near Bristol) have imported much jute, but sources said that irregularities of sailling from India and Pakistan made it advisable to con' centrate on one receiving port and Dundee would be the logical choice.
