Benjamin Spock says he will work harder for an end to the Vietnam war now that an appeals court has overturned his conviction on charges of conspiring to counsel young men to avoid the draft. "I feel pleased personally," the author-pediatrician said, "but I'm going to redouble my antiwar work. It seems to me absolutely tragic that young Americans will continue to die in Vietnam for an indefinite period." In a 52-page opinion, the appeals court also acquitted Harvard graduate student Michael Ferber of Boston, one of the three others convicted with Spock. It held there was insufficient evidence that Spock and Ferber adhered to anything illegal in a conspiracy to warrant their convictions. The court ordered new trials for two other men convicted with them--the Rev.

William Sloane Coffin chaplain at Yale University, and Mitchell Goodman of Temple, Maine, an author and teacher. It said their rights were prejudiced when Judge Francis J. W. Ford of U.S. District Court in Boston posed 10 questions that he instructed the trial jury to answer in returning a verdict.

In Washington, a spokesman said the Justice Department would not comment until it could fully review the ruling. The office of the U.S. attorney for Massachusetts was similarly noncommittal But John Wall, the assistant U.S. attorney who was chief prosecutor of the case, disagreed with the appeals court's sufficiency of evidence finding. "There damn well was plenty of proof," he said.

Wall, now an assistant Massachusetts attorney general, said he hoped the government would appeal the finding. But he added Uiat the Justice Department has not ap- ealed a sufficiency of evidence conviction reversal "in the past 20 years." Spock, who was visiting friends with his wife on an island off Cape Cod when the decision came, said he never doubted that he eventually would be found innocent. "I was given this terrible conscience by my mother," he recalled. "I always knew that so long as my conscience told me I was right, everything would be all right." Ferber said he also was not surprised by the decision. But he added that if it makes some persons opposed to Uie war "think the government is far more reasonable after all, then it is actually setting them back If they think by the acquittal, justice is done, then that's a mistake." Coffin, who was playing tennis at Yale when learned of the decision, said he was gratified by it, but viewed the news as "medium good" because of the order that he be retried.

Goodman, at his home in Maine, contended that both the trial and appeals courts refused to consider the basic questions at stake. He listed them as "who is really responsible for the crime of destruction that our government has committed in Vietnam" and the constitutionality of the draft laws. After their convictions June 14, 1968, all four men were sentenced to two-year prison terms. Ferber was fined $1,000 and the others were fined $5,000 each. Execution of the sentences was stayed pending appeals.

The questions that the court objected to were in Judge Ford's charge to the trial jury. One was: "Does the jury find beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendants unlawfully, nowingly and willfully conspired to counsel Selective Service registrants to knowingly and willfully refuse and evade service in the armed forces "By a progression of questions each of which seems to require an answer unfavorable to the defendant, a reluctant juror may have been led to vote for a conviction which, in the large, he would have resisted," the appeals court concluded. Saturday, July CHy Market Skid Ends After Four Days NEW YORK (AP) The stock market's steep slide came to a halt Friday after four days of retreat. The major averages advanced, and advances and declines of individual issues were about even. After losing 38.33 points in the previous four sessions, the Dow Jones average of 30 industrials rose 4.46 points to 852.25.

Of 1,557 issues traded on the New York Stock Exchange, 651 fell and 641 rose. Volume totaled 11.73 million shares, compared with 11.46 million Thursday. Brokers said prices were nudged up by bargain hunters taking advantage of the sharp decline. 1 Biographies Of Authors On Exhibit Whom do Iowa authors write about? Fifty answers to that question are now on display at the University of Iowa Main Library in a exhibition. special collections By HARRISON WEBER Iowa Dally Press Writer The state has done a remarkable job in processing individual income tax returns.

With nearly one million returns filed, only 53,000 remain to be processed and most of these are returns claiming refund which has been rejected by the computer because of an error. This means these re- turns must be reviewed manually. To assure lowans of a prompt refund, several years ago the i "Fifty Biographies by Fifty Iowa Authors," the I exhibition showcases house biographies of popular personali- ies, such as Davey Crockett, and lesser known figures like Sir Thomas Elyot, a diplomat --Carol A. Samuelson. Problems Of Sewage Discussed The problem of what to do with sewage is, today, undoubtedly the most pressing need in this country, according to Sydney C.

Schachtmeister, director of the Johnson County Health Department. A good sewage system is a necessity as inadequate or defective septic tank systems can permit disease causing bacteria to seep down into the soil or on the surface of the ground and pollute both surface and sub-surface water supplies, he Group Visits In Faas Home At West Branch WEST BRANCH Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Faas and family of Vinton and Mrs. Lottie Seck- ley and granddaughter of Cedar Kapids were weekend guests of Mrs.

State Revenne Director Wilam Forst estimates there are bout 5,000 returns in this cate- ory. But, quickly adds, that interest will be minimal.

Last year, the state paic 1,164 in interest on income tax eturns not processed within 45 ays after the April 30 deadline or filing. Through the use of computers nd other electronic gear the epartment is processing in veeks what used to take month accomplish. Of the 990,000 individual in ome tax returns filed, 770.0W were for refunds. The average refund is $54.20. notes.

Typhoid fever, paratyphoid and hepatitis are a few of the dangerous diseases which can spread in this manner. One of the critical areas in Johnson County is the Lake Macbride area. north It is not the interest of the Johnson County Health Department to encourage small developers or subdivision developers to install a series of small package treatment plants in an area Schcahtmeister said. Rather, it is to encourage these developers to cooperate and build one large packaged plant to include as many home owners as possible with plan ning for future home owners to connect to the system and in this way decrease the costs the operation, he added. Whatever is done in the neai future, it must be understood that the effluent fn.n the pack age treatment plant cannot be discharged directly into Lake Macbirde, but can be dis charged into any other water way, he said.

Students Plan Recitals Sunday WASHINGTON (AP) With many city neighborhoods riskier )laces than they were a decade ago, the Census Bureau is taking greater than usual precau- ions to assure the safety of its census takers next year. "I wouldn't say we were oblivious to the hazards in some ghetto areas," a spokesman for he agency said. 'We won't insist that they work after dark if they don't want to," he said. "Normally, a great deal of census-taking is done in evening hours because that's when people return home from work." The problem of finding census-takers is compounded, he said, by today's tight labor marset: "We know that recruiting will be a major problem." A higher proportion of Negroes than ever before will be enlisted for the doorbell-ringing.

The bureau has already begun the groundwork for hiring these temporary workers by seeking the cooperation of organizations such as the Urban League, Congress of Racial Equality and National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "We think we've pretty well made our point with these groups," a Census Bureau offi-E'etnch Buxtehude, Louis dal said, "that it's to their Daqmn Johann David to get an accurate census Brahms.

She will perform works by jor," from three chorale ludes the "Orgelbuchlein" and an "Toccata, Adagio and Fugue in major." As part of the security plan for next year, there will be more supervisors out with the census-takers in certain neighborhoods than hi sections where the risk is considered lower.

Fifteen to 20 census-takers to one crew leader is normal in most areas but in the ghettos the ratio will be eight to one. A voice recital will be given at 4 p.m. a by Arlen Hershberger, Wellman senior in music. A baritone, he will sing by Handel, Vivaldi. Brahms, Thomas Campian and Samuel Barber.

The recital will be in North Hall. Both recitals are and open to the public. BUTTER-NUT COFFEE $129 2 Lbs. 1 Walter Reese and wife to SU4 Foundo- lon, 60 ft. Lot Blk.
