The street barriers of concrete, steel and wrecked vehicles have become a symbol of 35,000 Catholics living there. The other barricades will "definittly remain," an IRA spokesman said. The ones ern Ireland's Protestant majority. To the Protestants, they are a hallmark of the IRA lawlessness that the British army has not been able to crush.

The IRA meanwhile denied that the demolition of the three barriers in Londonderry meant it was preparing to relax -its control of the area known as Free Derry and the Nixon Hopeful About Peace But Remains Wary -J The Associated Prest BELFAST, Northern i Ire-land Militant Protestants announced today they are going Wad with plans to erect barricades around Roman Catholic strongholds in Northern Ireland despite a promise by the Irish Republican Army to tear down a few of its barriers. The Ulster Defense Association (UDA) said the decision by the IRA's Provisional wing to remove three of the 40 ricades that close off the Roman Catholic Bogside and Creggan districts of Londonderry was "too little and too late." "The removal of a mere three barriers in no way affects our plans," a spokesman siad. "We shall only be sa-tisfied when the security forces are back in control of the Bogside and Creggan." However, a UDA spokesman told a BBC interviewer that "essential would be allowed to continue in the IRA strongholds.

"We expect, perhaps, some more North Vietnamese offensive," he said, "but I believe now the ability of the South Vietnamese to defend themselves on the ground, with the support we give them in the air, has been demonstrated." CITES AIR STRIKES He said 40 per cent of all' the tactical air sorties over South Vietnam are being flown by South Vietnamese. "The success of our air strikes in the North and on the battlefield, the success in turning this battle around, hastens the day when the South Vietnamese will be able to undertake the total activity themselves," the President said. not going to put a date on it. I can only say the outcome of the present battle, how badly the North Vietnamese are hurt, will determine it, but I am very optimistic." Nixon said the action of Air Force Gen.

ABOUT WEAPONS In defending his request for money to fund new offensive weapons programs, while seeking congressional approv- al of his Moscow summit arms accords, Nixon contended both countries understand the other will go forward with new weaponry pending for broader arms curbs. While discussing Vietnam, he philosophized about East-West negotiations in broad terms that apparently could be given broad application. Speaking of talks with Communist leaders, he said: "I find that making a bar-.

gain with them is not easy and you get something from them only when you have something they want to get from you." In this vein, he said that's why he intends to continue bombing North Vietnam, mine its harbors and maintain a "residual force" in the South until prisoners of war are returned. low-middle-income wage earners in 1969." TRUST FUND "If, on the other hand," he continued, "the Congress passes the 20 per cent increase in Social Security and does not finance it adequately, it will seriously jeopardize the integrity of-the Social Security trust fund, and it could be highly inflationary which, of course, will hurt most the Social Security people, the retired people." The President added, "It isn't that we do not want as high an increase as possible. But the increase must be a responsible one." i n. did not discuss -whether -he would veto a 20 per cent increase if Congress approves it, but it would be extremely difficult for him to do so.

"I'm always glad to see the Paris peace talks open again a McGovern statement said, "but the best way to end the war is to end it. We can talk and talk and talk in Paris." McGovern's war-ending formula is to halt U. S. bombing cut off aid to Saigon and its forces and simply withdraw, ra th United States "will return to the negotiating table on the assumption that the North Vietnamese are prepared to negotiate in a serious and constructive way.

We will be prepared to negotiate in that way." RED REACTION In representatives of Hanoi and the Viet Cong said the United States has been forced by them and public opinion to return to the conference table. In their first reaction to Nixon's announcement the United States would resume the suspended peace conference, both delegations refrained from saying outright they would agree. The tone of their official statements, however, indicated they would put no roadblocks in the way of resuming the 3Vi-year- old conference that the United States broke off May 4 on grounds the Communists were refusing to negotiate seriously. He reaffirmed a May 8 offer to withdraw all Americans within four months in return for a supervised Indochina cease-fire and the return of American prisoners plus an accounting for those missing. EXCELLENT PROPOSAL Terming this an excellent proposal, he added, as he has before: "The only thing thar-we have not done is to do what the Communists have asked and that is to impose a Communist government on the people of South Vietnam against their will." To do so, he said, would "reward aggression," invite future encroachments and "dishonor the United States of America." At another point, Nixon again claimed success for his 'Vietnamization program while declining to say exactly when Saigon forces might be able to Senate Okays S.S.

Nixon's announcement Paris peace talks would be resumed, McGovern said he didn't believe a return to the, bargaining table, alone would end the rules prohibited the state's 10 pro-McGovern members from participating, but the convention rules state that only persons whose places are challenged are barred. The McGovern backers will contend, that the approximately 120 McGovern delegates who Would serve, re-g a 1 of the outcome, should be allowed to vote; the Humphrey forces may challenge that contention. In the committee debate, party regulars backing Humphrey contended that the McGovern forces were ignoring the reform rules written by a commission launched by the South Dakota The Humphrey forces were accused of twisting that panel's Campaign RunninS TIT 1 Not Needed (Continued from Page One) larly' if McGovern becomes his challenger. And here again he is saying that only a position of strength will yield further agreements, for eventual savings on arms.

For good, but calculated measure, he said further that only strength would reassure American allies and dependents, like Israel. The necessity and the ca- 't parity of a president to be pre-eminently the president while running for office against less exalted politicians can have similar advantages in domestic affairs, CREDIT AND BLAME As Nixon indicated, he can stress the responsibility of office against the irresponsibility of Congress in their debate about how much to raise Social Security benefits. He can claim credit for economic recovery while blaming unemployment and inflation on his predecessors. He can accept credit for a popular turn in the philosophy of the Supreme Court while still making headlines with his distinctive views on capital punishment or school busing. He can heap praise on Vice President Spiro Agnew while holding a powerful Democrat like John Connally close to the bosom of his administration.

LET PEOPLE JUDGE But it is foreign policy that Nixon wanted to be the domi- nant subject of his first tele- vised news conference in 13, months because that is the subject he deems to be his strong suit. I It is in dealings the Chinese and the Russians and the Israelis and the Vietnam- ese that he believes he has made his mark and laid the basis for a popular peace. Although the final peace in Indochina has so far eluded him, he showed himself prepared to let the electorate judge. And if it judges him poorly, only he among the candidates will have power to act further.

He called the result of the credentials committee vote "shabby back-room dealing." He called it "the rottenest political steal I've' ever seen in my political life." Humphrey could, afford to smile, with assists from Wallace and Muskie. However, McGovern soon came to his senses. His remark that he "wouldn't have any part in a convention that would sustain this kind of shabby back-room dealing" was later modified. He admitted that his outburst "doesn't reflect what I want to say in this matter." It isn't so much a matter of saying as of doing. And doing is exactly what McGovern will now undertake.

With the big prize so near and yet so far, he will fight. On the convention floor, possibly in the courts, to upset the committee decision. WILL CHALLENGE His people will challenge delegations friendly to Humphrey and the professionals who aren't sold on Mc Govern. In this fight he will doubtlessly use the very methods he so harsly indicted. Arm-twisting, back-room dealing, everything in the political book.

With only one week to go before the convention opens July 10, it'll be a fight to the finish with no holds barred. It'll be the kind of great political donnybrook which has made Democratic national conventions such great spectacles. When it's all over, the Democrats will pick up the pieces united or not. war.

The challengers include several McGovern sup-, porters. The situation was further clouded by an Illinois circuit court ruling yesterday prohibiting any but the Daley dele-' gates from taking those seats. The immediate impact of the.

California Vote was to trim McGovern's first-place delegate total and increase his difficulty in wooing uncommitted delegates. But Gary Hart, the senator's campaign manager, told a news conference the defeat was a "temporary hurdle we will overcome by Miami." Frank Mankiewicfc, his national political director, said the matter may be taken to court. A new Associated Press tally, taking into account the co i 1 1 vote, put McGovern's first-ballot strength now at 1,226.9, or 282.1 votes away from the needed 1,509. McGovern's own tally dropped to 1,333.75, or 17S.2S short of a majority. A crucial question when the California case comes to the floor will be whether any of the state's delegates can vote.

But he pointed out that defendants convicted in current cases before Oct. 1 would not be covered under the law. Prisoners now on death row might challenge the law on the grounds of unequal treatment, since it applies only to them, and not those convicted later, Shevin said. Civil rights lawyer Elizabeth Du Fresne, who with Tobias Simon represents about half the death row in guit cnaenging tne new iaw mates, said in Miami that as unconstitutional win be filed unless Gov. Askew grants clemency to the prisoners making them eligible for immediate parole.

She said she has wired Askew urging him to grant clemency. CLEANER, SIMPLER Shevin said "It might be much cleaner and simpler if the Legislature passes an overall law affecting all per-sons convicted of capital crimes." However, he said his staff would study the high court decision carefully before issuing any recommendation. He said the ruling may outlaw the death penalty only in certain cases, permitting its use in others. In Jacksonville, Duval County State Attorney Don Nichols, who said he was "very disappointed" by the Supreme Court decision, called on the governor to convene a special legislative session "to consider reinstating the death penalty in certain circumstances as provided by the court's decision." Nichols said he referred to murder of policemen, firemen, prison guards and similar crimes. State Rep.

Gwen Cherry, who sponsored a bill in the 1972 legislative session seeking to outlaw the death penalty, said in Miami she, too, wants a special session. She said the Legislature should repeal the law specifying life terms without parole, calling the measure "horrible and retaliatory." State Corrections Director Louie E. Wainwright warned that death row inmates could become "very dangerous" people if kept behind bars without hope of parole. "When you take away hope from a man, you have a man. He has nothing to lose," Wainwright said.

Church said it appeared the bitter controversy over welfare reform in the bill might never be settled so that it was necessary for Congress to go ahead on the across-the-board Social Security hike. The House in passing the big bill, voted for a 5 per cent Social Security increase. But since 'that time Rep. Wilbur D. Mills.

chair- mart bf the Ways and Means' Committee, has said he favors 20 per cent and that it can be soundly financed. Nixon told a news conference last night "there should be an increase in Social Secu-( rity" but went on to suggest' that 20 per cent would be too much. He said that if the 20 per cent hike is financed by higher payroll taxes, as provided by the Church amendment, "it will completely wipe out the tax reduction that was given to middle-income and NOAA, Indicated Ctniult local Foracair EThesTSK7 Mostly sunny through tomorrow.

Daley, portended further acrimonious debate at the Miami Beach convention opening July 10, The full convention will vote on accepting or rejecting Credentials Committee decisions. In his initial burst of anger McGovern called the commit- tee decision "the rottenest po- litical steal I've ever seen in political career" and blamed Sen.

Hubert H. Humphrey, his nearest rival and chief beneficiary of the ruling, for engineering it "I couldn't possibly support a convention that would sustain this kind of shabby backroom dealing," he declared. "I wouldn't have any part of any convention nominee who would support this." But he tempered the assertion later when he told a news conference in Atlantic City, N.J., that his initial outburst "doesn't reflect what I want to say about this matter." "I don't want to make any threats," he said, and added that, "if the Democratic nominee is nominated according to the rules in a way I think is fair, I'll support him." The California decision upset McGovern's chances for a first-ballot nomination and gave new hope to his rivals. Humphrey, calling the decision "only fair," said his own chances "have markedly improved" and criticized McGovern's reaction. "Anyone who would bolt or rush off in a huff has, may I say, very little regard for the convention and its procedures," he said.

Sen. Edmund S. Muksie's campaign manager said his man is "back in the race, very strong." Most Muskie supporters on the committee backed the challenge, though Muskie, himself, declared neutrality. The challenge, filed by supporters of Humphrey and other candidates who ran behind McGovern in the June 6 primary, contended that the winner-take-all California law violated the spirit of party reforms, although the rules specifically permitted such a policy this year. In today's television inter-view, McGovern said he would go to the convention with either enough delegates for a first ballot victory, or enough delegates to assure a second ballot nomination.

McGovern repeatedly voiced confidence that the national convention would overturn the Credentials Committee's decision. "I know that decision yesterday will not be allowed to stand by any fair-minded person," he said. The senator called the com-mittte's action "probably the dying gasp of a bunch of desperate old politicians." McGovern said he would not accept a vice presidential nomination. He was asked if he wa still friends with Humphrey, the rival for the nomination McGovern blamed for engineering the committee's action. "I haven't seen him- for a few days," McGovern said, and then added, "I think our friendship will survive." McGovern also responded to Vice President Spiro1T.

contended in challenging the winner-take-all provision that he was arguing in "the spirit of the McGovern rules." Arguing in behalf of the McGovern position, attorney Joseph L. Rauh Jr. said the "question is whether the rules of the game can be changed after the game has been played." The resolution adopted by the credentials panel said that proportional representation "is an integral part of the reform mandate" of the 1968 convention. The actual new allocations of California votes depend on official vote totals. A few hours after the Credentials Committee Secretary of State Edmund G.

Brown Jr. released these official totals: McGovern 43.46 per cent, Humphrey per cent, Gov. George Wallace 7.58 per cent, Rep. Shirley Chisholm 4.41 per cent. Muskie 2.04 per cent' Mayor Samuel Yorty 1.42 per cent, former Sen.
