The requirement is contained in a section of the 1950 Subversive Activities Control Act. Justice William J. Brennan delivered the 8-0 decision. The decision held that the act's requirements conflicts with a constitutional provision that nobody can be compelled to give evidence against himself in any criminal case.

The Communist Party itself now is on trial in federal district court here on charges of failure to register as a representative of the Soviet Union. There was no immediate indication just how today's Supreme Court decision based upon registration of individuals-may eventually apply to the case against the party itself. However, Justice Department officials said this trial will continue while government lawyers study the high tribunal's opinion. In New York, Communist leader Gus Hall hailed the decision as "a blow against the longest legal vendetta in American his- news' conference. "This is something we've always wanted to do and couldn't." Ha 1 said the party will take three actions: --Publish a basic political pro" within two gram or manifesto weeks.

--Call its first public national convention since 1950. An unannounced one was held in 1958. i --Take steps to enter candidates in next year's congressional elections. Hall calls himself i spokesman" for the Communist Party. He said the 1958 convention made him "national chairman," but he has never used the title and it was never announced because of the subversive activities control act.

Specifically involved in today's decision were William Albertson of Brooklyn, N.Y., and Roscoe Quincy Proctor, of Oakland, NEAR CAMBODIA Infantry, Aided By B52s, Mauls Red Regulars SAIGON --UPI-- American troops supported by B52 bombers today mauled three battalions of North Vietnamese army regulars on the slopes of a jungle mountain near the Cambodian border.

It was the first B52 raid of the war in support of the battle- ront troops. American fighting men of the 1st Cavalry Division (airmobile) swept forward after the B52 strike, and officers radioed reports of counting 244 Communist bodies in one area where another 100 enemy dead were believed strewn on the battle ground. Artillery and air liaison officers estimated that bombs and shells killed another 600 or 700 Communists. There was no announcement on American losses.

A report from the front said all available helicopters were pressed into service to fly the wounded out. It was not until noon today that the dead could be removed. Officers at 1st Cavalry Division headquarters told UPI correspondent Joseph L. Galloway that they expected the Communist death toll to reach 1,000. The eight-jet B52s began tearing chunks out of the Vietnamese positions at 4 p.m Within an hour.

Communist re sistance slackened, and the cav alrymen reported they were roll' ing forward against nothing heavier than sniper fire. The B52s were diverted in midflight from another mission to clear the way for the cavalry men against a force of Communists entrenched on th mountainside. Calif. The Subversive Activities Control Board in 1962 ordered Albertson to register. A similar order to Proctor was issued in 1963.

The Justice Department said Proctor was a member of the Communist Party's national committee and was on the New York State governing board. The Communist Party of New York expelled Albertson on July 7, 1964, calling him a "police igent." He asked, however, that he Supreme Court rule in his ase as well as that of Proctor. Albertson and Proctor ap- jealed to the high tribunal after he U.S. Court of Appeals here upheld the board orders. They contended the individual egistratioii requirement vio- ates the Fifth Amendment priv- lege against self incrimina- ion and impinges on First Amendment rights of freedom of belief and association.

The Supreme Court was told that outcome of the case would affect board orders against 34 other persons and 7 similar cases pending at the board level. Brennan said the risks of self- incrimination involved in individual registration "are obvious." Blackout Started In Canada Ontario Plant Had Trouble WASHINGTON -UPI- Chairman Joseph C. Swidler of the Federal Power Commission announced today that the massive northeastern power failure apparently started in Canada "in the Ontario hydro generating plant of the Niagara River." Swidler told newsmen that he had relayed the report to President Johnson, Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara and Buford Ellington, head of the Office of Emergency Planning. "The initiation of the disturbance seems to have occurred in the Ontario hydro generating plant on the Niagara River anc resulted in a major inrush power into the upstate New York systems," Swidler said.

"There followed a series trip-outs of transmission lines and generating plants of the systems. "This resulted in the transfe of a large bloc of load to th New England and southern New York systems, including th New York City system. Th load thus shifted to the England and southern New Yor systems was beyond the capa bility of their generating plants and the result was the com plete collapse of their In Toronto, Ontario hydro ficials said the cause of the fai ure was traced to the backu relay system in the Sir Adan Beck No. 2 distribution center a Queenston.

The suspect identified ai John Saunders in a joint press conference held today by County Atty. Norman E. Green, Sheriff Waldon V. Burr and Police Chief Bernard L. Garmire.

His Tucson address is unknown. Green said investigators havt left for a small town in Texas to question an 18-year-old girl also believed involved in the murder, The warrant issued in the Rowe case listed a "Jane Doe" as well as Saunders. SAUNDERS was arrested last night in Westbrook by Tucson Police Lt. Clarence Dupnik. He is being held without bond there, Garmire said, and has agreed to waive extradition.

He will be returned to Tucson late today or tomorrow, the chief added. Garmire said Saunders has given "a full statement" to Dupnik in which he substantiates the version of the given to police last week Richard Bruns, 19, of 4756'E.

Johnson said at that time that the United States was ready to enter into unconditional discussions. Under questioning at a news conference, McClosk'jy said he thought that in 1964 the United States was willing to "enter into meaningful talks" and he thought that was the attitude today.
