This supply, he said, will not have to enter the lake.

"This route is needed today. The safeguards are there and there is not any additional mileage available, Allen said. "I ask that no more blocks be put into the path of this needed project." The City Council voiced its support of Allen's statements by reafirming previous council action approving the location of the bypass. The Apollo 15 astronauts secretly carried 400 souvenir stamped envelopes on their round trip to the moon last summer. The envelopes could have been sold to collectors for $600,000 or more.

The three have been disciplined for the action according to NASA. One hundred of the unauthorized envelopes were given to an acquaintance and were sold at a reported price of $1,500 each.

There had been hints such contacts were being made, but this was the first time an American official has drawn a clear picture of the Holy See's effort for POWs. The Pope has lately spoken out forcefully on what he calls "that intolerable and bloody war." (Page 2-A) Alexandria Meeting Set "The reasons he gave then were vague and had nothing whatsoever to do with 1-220," Allen said. "We (the council) felt it would be wiser to let him have his say, regardless." The mayor angrily told Key, "Continued action to block this project will set our whole transportation program back 20 years.

"Don't you ever think my concern is not as great as yours or any other club in protecting Cross Lake. That's what I've been doing since 1964. Where were you all?"

Rogers said Tuesday that the Vatican has tried to obtain the release of U.S. prisoners of war in North Vietnam but "so far to no avail." There have been 1.1-ls that the Vatican has initiated contacts on behalf of the A i a prisoners, but this was believed the first time an American official has drawn a clear picture of the Holy See's efforts. Rogers spoke at a news conference in Rome shortly after meeting with Pope Paul VI for an hour in private audience at the Vatican.

On the eve of the resumption of the Paris peace talks, the Pope told Rogers he hoped the negotiations would lead to a "realistic and final" agreement "according to the just wishes of all the Vietnamese people."

By Phil Cate Of The Times Staff MINDEN The Parish Police Jury changed the location of lour voting precincts in Ward 1 Tuesday in a brief mceang Tuesday. Precincts changed are precinct 2, from the Minden civic center to the American Legion hut, precinct 6, from Hoifos' Do Nut House to the ground of the courthouse, and percincts 17 and 18, from tl.e M.Lssett Grocery Store to the Dubberly municipal building. The jury also plans to move two precincts at Shongaloo to Shongaloo High School if it can pet permission from the Webster Parish School Board for the move.

Public comment on four major areas of concern, said Beasley, are being sought by the forest service. He said those areas are methods to classify, protect, identify and manage the areas in the proposed wilderness system. "The forest service has prepared a list of categories for consideration listing several alternatives," said Beasley.

He added that packets on the proposed system can be obtained by writing him at 2500 Shreveport Highway in Pine- HAS SELECTED 1 WEEK TO "If you think we are having trouble going through now (across Cross Lake by bridge near the Willow Point area) just try going through that natural hunting and fishing ground, which is also restful and quiet," he said. The mayor said Key's references to endangering the city water supply are in error. He said tests bores did show salt water intrusion at time, but that it is no longer a problem. As presently desitmed, Allen said, the bridge allows for no spillage or drainage into Cross Lake. The possibility accidental spillage from the bridge into the lake is near imnossible with this bridge design, Allen added.

Rogers said the Vatican attempted "directly or i i- 3Ctly" to try to arrange an exchange of prisoners of war; to obtain a report from the North Vietnamese about the missing; to assure the delivery of more mail to the prisoners and to assure that the North Vietnamese treat the prisoners in a humanitarian way according to the provisions of the Geneva convention. The Vatican communique, one of the longest ever issued after a papal audience with a government official, said: "Mr. Rogers stated the continuhg desire of the United States for a prompt, negotiated solution to the Vietnam conflict and thanked the Holy Father for his tireless efforts on behalf of peace in that region and the whole world." At his news conference, Rogers said he was generally hopeful that the reopening of the peace talks might bring some movement by the North Vietnamese toward a settlement of the war. He gave these reasons: The North Vietnamese offensive has proved unsuccessful. The U.S.
