And he noted no provision had been made to require advice or concurrence of local county or tate government in any closures, large or small. "I feel that unless the needs and desires of the local people are given proper consideration, Congress will eventually step in and prescribe off-road management practices for all federal land-managing agencies," the governor added.

In forwarding copies to Nevada's congressional delegation, O'Callaghan said "I think it important that before the Bureau of Land Management arbitrarily closes or restricts an area, there should be agreement or concurrence at the local level. "Otherwise there will be confusion and misunderstanding." Younger urges California vote on punishment LOS ANGELES AP) Atty, Gen.

Younger bid newsmen Monday that the Supreme Court sought only to prevent "selective execution." "They've said in effect that they will support the death penalty when no discretion is left to the court or jury," Younger said.

The initiative on the November ballot would state four crimes in which the death penalty would be mandatory, but Younger said only one was significant "If a life termer assaults one not an inmate and death results." Other crimes covered in the initiative are treason, perjury it which an innocent man is ex ecuted, and trainwrecking re sulting in death.

But the army agreed to set up checkpoints on the avenue and search anyone entering the district for weapons. And it said the army not the police-would maintain law and order in the area, assisted by unarmed UDA patrols. "No members of the police will be allowed in," said a UDA leader.

"We feel that if the Queen's Writ does not run in the Creggan and Bogside, then it will not run here." He was referring to the IRA's strongholds in Londonderry, the barricaded "no-go" districts which in effect are autonomous IRA-Catholic areas from which the army and the police are barred. It was to protest this area known as Free Derry that the UDA began throwing up barricades during the weekend to create no-go districts of their own. The army made no objections when the UDA barricaded off three other areas earlier Monday. But it took a stand in Ainswortn Avenue, it said, be cause the barrier would cut off about 20 Catholic families. "The area will not become a no-go area, said bntisn army headquarters.

In Vf'ashington, O'Brien issued a statement saying: "I find Mr. Nixon's attitude to ward the blatant act of political espionage against the Democratic party to be cavalier and cynical." Ziegler also discounted reports that former Secretary of the Treasury John B. Connally might be named to head the U.S.

He said there were "no plans at all for Secretary Connally to be involved in the Paris negotiations or any other aspect of negotiations regarding the situation in Snnthpast. Asia."

Cliff Young, It-Reno, today announced he will be a candidate for re-election to a third term in Nevada's upper house. The former two-term occupant of Nevada's single seat in the U.S. House of Representatives said he planned to file formal- candidacy papers next week.

Two Republicans will be nominated from the Reno and unincorporated areas of Washoe County in the Sep tember primary balloting. MAJOR GOALS Young listed four major goals he hoped to accomplish if the voters return him to the State Senate in the November general election. They are: general conservation, park' recreation development, legislative reform and strong conflict of interest legislation. Long identified with the state's leading conservationists, Young said "the last session enacted sound legislation for air, water and solid waste problems. While some modifications may be in order, the battle ground of the future would seem to lie in the getting of necessary financing to make sure the laws are enforced and that a comprehensive monitored program is being carried out." Renewing his call for more places to play in the state, he said "in view of our ex ploding population and rapid development, additional park and recreation areas will be badly needed in urban areas.

The only easible way of providing this need is to require subdivides and land owners to contribute park areas or money in lieu therof as the development occurs. LAND PLANNING "I am interested in legisla tion to further land use plan ning, not on a local but state level. We must modernize zoning laws and outdated laws on the books related to subdivisions." Young long has been an out spoken advocate of "legislative reform, toward the end of not only increasing the efficiency of the State Legislature, but making the Legislature a more responsible law making body. "A part of legislative reform would be to have a stronger conflict of interest law. This should, however, not be con- ined solely to the Legislature but additional legislation is this ield is needed for other public officials as he said.

Young lives with his wife, Jane, and four children, Diana, LaVonne, Cliff Jr. and Bobby, at 2035 Regent in Reno.

Attempts by Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley and 58 of his allies to upset a committee vote depriving them of seats as con vention delegates.

The Illinois vote gave McGovern at least 41 supporters among those seated in place of the Daley contingent. McGovern forces first sought a compromise in the Illinois dispute, but after the California upset, they stood firmly against Daley. Supporters of Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey initiated the challenge to the winner-take-all as pect of California's primary, and Humphrey picked up most of the delegates taken from McGovern and apportioned among all who ran in that state.

In ruling on the California challenge, Judge Hart commented, "It might not be cricket; it might even be dirty pool, but is it unconstitutional?" His answer was that there was no clear constitutional principle in volved. The Associated Press head count of delegate commitments showed McGovern with 1,281.9, Humphrey 498.55, Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace 381, Muskie 225.55, and 454.4 uncommitted. It takes 1,509 for the nomination.

The candidates went their various ways for a pre-con-vention respite. Humphrey was at his lakeside retreat in Wa-verly, and McGovern was at his farm on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.
