Ambush Claims 6 BANGKOK (UPI)- Communist terrorisis detonated aland mine under a government jeep Thursday and sprayed the wreckage with automatic weapons fire, killing six policemen. Conservative Pair Tapped by Nixon on CAP Meeting Slated Obituaries 1 Insurance Proposal Is Outlined BOISE (UPI) The Idaho Bar Association outlined a type of "no fault" automobile insurance plan specifically tailored for Idaho Thursday at its first news conference ever called to announce a position paper. Eugene Thomas of Boise, president of the association, said the plan will be presented to the Idaho legislature in four to six bills. He said the proposal could take In more than automobile casualty Insurance and included suggeslions to ease court costs in several areas.

At the same time, Thomas outlined a program begun by the bar associatlonslx weeks ago to protect Ihe public from possible fee abuses by attorneys, Under the new program, he said, anyone who feels an "unreasonable or Improper" fee is being charged may file a complaint with the Idaho Bar Association. The complaints will be studied by a "peer review panel" and there will te no attorney costs to the person bringing the complaint. Thomas said the "no fault" insurance proposal is similar to programs In effect In Massachusetts, Illinois and Oregon, butsald the plan for Idaho would differ in that a victim of a traffic accident would be allowed to take action against a wrong-doer. This, he said, would allow reduced premiums for the good drivers, The proposal Includes: A requirement that compulsory third party liability Insurance be carried before an automobile can be registered or licensed. The coverage would include mandatory hos- pital medical first-parly insurance with a suggested minimum of $2,000, for hospital medical coverage and disabilily income insurance.

Strong policies against arbitrary and capricious cancellation, Increase of premium charges, and failure lo renew or lo write requested coverages. Dollar limitations of actual expense to the injured party to determine court procedures. There would be no right to trial by jury in cases involving less than $100 of actual economic loss, free trial by jury as a matter of right would be suspended In cases involving claims of less than $3,000, and the suggested number of jurors would be reduced in cases Involving casualty claims of less than $10,000. A recommendation the legislature consider reducing the number of jurors to which any party could be entitled to six Instead of the now required 12 in such cases. A review of comparative negligence and contribution concepts, provisions for group underwriting to allow economical Insurance purchases, and penalties forfraud In claims.

Thomas said the bar also recommended an overhaul of the current practice for testing and licensing drivers. said ihe bar would prefer the program on a county-by-county basis be taken over by a slate agency to allow for uniform procedures. He also suggested there be a greater variety of drivers' licenses. He said he could envision as many as four or five different kinds of licenses, each allowing the holder to drive only within the limits of his skills. Betty (Continued from Page 1) fill obviously every group In the country cannot be represented on the court," he said.

He said he had looked for the nation's "very best" lawyers-and had found two of them. Powell Is the recipient of "virtually every honor the legal profession can bestow upon him," including Ihe ABA presidency, and Rehnquist Is the possessor of "one of Ihe finest legal minds in this whole nation today, outstanding in every Intellectual endeavour he has undertaken," Nixon said. The seats they will fill, if confirmed, were occupied by the late Hugo Black of Alabama, a 1937 appointee of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and John Marshall Harlan of New York, an appointee of President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Both retired in September for reasons of health and Black died a short time later. This left the Supreme Court with seven justices, two of them--Chief Justice Warren E. Burger and Associate Justice Harry Blackmun-- appointed by Nixon. Senate scrutiny of Nixon's two new nominees, in a Judiciary Committee chaired by James 0. Eastland, a conservative and an ouspok- en opponent of civil rights legislation, is certain to focus on the candidates' views on wiretapping.

It is an issue which has come before the court frequently as government investigators have made greater use of electronic eavesdropping equipment. Rehnquisl, in a speech in London July 15, discussed wiretapping. "Is the invasion of privacy entailed by wiretapping too high a price to pay for a successful method of attacking organized criirse and similar types of crime? I think not, given the safeguards which attend its use In Ihe United States," he said. Powell, in an article reprinted in the current FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, said the "outcry" against wiretapping was, tempest uj adding; "Law abiding'Citizens have nothing to fear." He'alsb defended police tactics during last spring's massive antiwar demonstration in Washington In which thousands were arrested and then freed for lack of evidence. In 1967, he expressed the view thai "in many respects the victims of crime have been the forgotten men of our society." Rehnquist fought Ihe admlnis- (ration's battle in Congress for a law permitting authorities to deny ball to some potentially "dangerous" suspects In Ihe District of Columbia, its foremost opponent was Sen.

Sam Ervln, considered Ihe Senalc's leading constitutional authority. In his speech announcing his nominees, Nixon repealed his view thai Ihe court had become one-sided in protecting the rights of criminal defendants. "Over the past few years," he said, in any cases have come before the court Involving that delicate balance between the rights of society and the rights of defendants accused of crimes against as a conservative, I believe some court decisions have gone too far In the past In weakening the peace forces as against the criminal forces in our society." But the President expressed "great distress" over growing criticism of (he court. Criticism of Its decisions Is a right, he said. "But after those decisions are handed down, it is our obligation to obey the law whether we like it or not.

And It is our duty as citizens to respect the institution of the Supreme Court of the United States," Discrimination Charges Filed (Continued from Page 1)' asked why. 'Well because of the and I said what docs thai mean. 'They get a little rank I said that really wouldn't bother me, I'm 25 and I've been to college. I think I can take it. 'Well I just can't hire a woman'." The other two complaints claimed that the employers said they didn't hire women and she was turned down in her request for an application.
