The chief executive told his first televised news conference in 13 months that he was assuming the Communists were ready to negotiate seriously and added if they did "this war could be ended, and it could be ended well before Jan. 20" when he hopes to be inaugurated for a second term in the White House. i I iiiaaiiitffi i Potter Stewart, that it would be possible for state legislatures and Congress to enact a constitutional death-penalty law. Evidently, in order to be valid, such a law would have to be applied uniformly and not leave it to juries to pick and choose which convicted defendants should live and which should die. Early in the news conference, which lasted 44 minutes instead of the usual 30, Nixon misspoke himself and mentioned April 13 North Area School Sites as the date for resuming talks with the North Vietnamese.

George McGovern, trembling with anger, said Thursday he will not support the Democratic ticket if his own quest is denied and the presidential nomination goes to a rival who helped strip him of 151 California delegates. His challengers took new hope for their campaigns to overtake the South Dakota senator. Sen.

Hubert H. Humphrey, whose allies led the California challenge, declared his prospects "have markedly improved." Sen. Edmund S. Muskie's campaign manager said his man is "back in the race, very strong." Muskie smiled and said the Democratic National Convention will be more interesting now. THE POLITICAL storm broke over the verdict of the Democratic Credentials Committee, which voted 72-66 to take from McGovern more than half the delegates he won by capturing the California presidential primary on June 6.

The national convention itself will make the final decision. The Credentials Committee left McGovern with 120 California delegates, awarded 105 to Humphrey for his second place finish, and apportioned the balance among the other primary entries. The primary had been waged as a winner-take-all contest, for the entire 271-vote delegation. But Humphrey forces challenged that system after their candidate lost on grounds It violated party reform requirements. REFORM WAS the cloak, but political muscle the real issue, as the Credentials Committee dealt a severe setback to the McGovern campaign.

Th-i move was expected to have little immediate effect on soaring food costs. In removing the current exemption on raw agricultural products at all levels except the farm, the President sought to put the pressure of controls on profit margins and price markups on fruits, vegetables and seafood sold primarily at wholesale and retail.

DON ALD RUMSFELD, director of the Cost of Living Council, said Nixon's action "cannot drive food prices down.

The testing Continued on A-7 REYKJAVIK, Iceland Wi Bobby Fischer has made a last-minute demand for more money to play in the world chess championship against Russian Boris Spassky, informed sources said Thursday. They reported that the 29-year-old American challenger has sent an ultimatum to the Iceland Chess Federation "two or three days ago," saying he would not show up unless he got 30 per cent of the gate receipts on top of the unprecedented sums already guaranteed.

UNDER THE agreement Fischer and Spassky signed with the federation, the players will share a purse of $125,000, with the winner getting five-eights of it. In addition it was agreed that they would each get 13 per cent of receipts from sales of television and film rights for the match. Fischer canceled scheduled flights to Reykjavik Tuesday and Wednesday. This had led to speculation that he was waging a war of nerves with titleholder Spassky. The 24-game match is due to start on Sunday in a 2500-seat sports palace where seats are sold for $5 a game.

Since receiving Fischer's new demand, Icelandic Chess Federation officials have been in almost constant touch with Fred Cramer, a former president of the American Chess Federation, acting as Fischer's advance man, the informants said. IT WAS learned that the Icelandic federation wanted to avoid a rupture and was seeking a compromise. Officials were said to feel the federation could not afford any additional expenses. However, the sources said that while the federation might have trouble breaking even if the match went on as scheduled, it would not stand to lose if the match were canceled. Lothar Schmidt, the West German chosen to referee the match, expressed shock when told of the stand off shortly after his arrival Wednesday, informants said.

The news was conveyed to him by Fridrik Olafsson, an Icelandic grandmaster, they added. The sources contended the deadlock over money was the main reason Fischer did not arrive from New York as expected. One ranking American chess expert, who knows Fischer well but may not have known about the financial dispute said he felt Fischer was waging a war of nerves against Spassky. the help of the Mounted Patrol, will operate roving roadblocks checking for fatigued or intoxicated drivers and hazardous vehicles.
