Five More Parties File for State Ballot Aug. 22, 1970 PRESS, Binghamton, N. Y. 7 Quota Bill Reverses Trend, Javits Charges 0 i) ii il "The question must be asked whether this enormous discretionary power should be given to any president," Javits said. "Rising protectionist sentiment could be better understood if our trade balance were in the red," he declared, "but it most decidedly is not." Javits said that in spite of the "severe inflation" of the nation's economy, the situation is improving and "our trade surplus is strengthening and moving further back into the black a trade surplus for 1970 is likely to approach $3 billion." "Perhaps even more importantly, the bill raises a critical issue of presidential power," Javits said.

"For, the bill as it presently stands can rightfully be considered the Tonkin Gulf Resolution of international trade." Javits said he found it strange that "on one hand the congress is attempting to reassert its constitutional pow-' ers as to war, while on the other hand, in the trade field it is willing to delegate sweeping authority to the President," by allowing the chief executive to set import levels based on a triggering economic formula WASHINGTON (GNS) -Sen. Jacob K. Javits, Friday called legislation to protect certain domestic industries from foreign com-, petition "the Tonkin Gulf Resolution of international trade," and said it should be defeated. "We are faced with a quota bill which would turn the clock back on the liberal trade policies that have served us so well since the end of the war," Javits said in a Senate speech. He condemned legislation recently approved by the House Ways and Means mittee to protect the shoe, text tile, oil, and steel industries, among others, from the threat of imports.

Panel Conclusions On Unrest Begun LOS ANGELES (AP) Blonde, pregnant Sharon Tate was hanged as well as stabbed, the county coroner says. Coroner Thomas T. No-guchi, testifying for the state in the Tate murder trial, said there were rope burns on the actress' neck and left cheek, as well as 16 stab wounds on her body.

A picture of the dead wom- an's face, exhibited by the prosecution, showed two dark abrasions on the cheekbone. "It is my opinion," Noguchi said, "that the rope contacted quite firmly. It is quite consistent that the decedent was hanged." Police found a thick white nylon rope around the neck of the screen beauty, looped over a living room ceiling beam with the other end around the neck of Jay- Sebring, another of the five victims. Defense objections cut off questions on hanging just before the trial recessed until Monday. Noguchi said he expects to elaborate during later testimony.

Seed Firms Say Eliglit Not That Bad By The Associated Press A spokesman for the seed grain producing industry says predictable damage to the nation's corn crop from the spread of a leaf fungus epidemic is likely to be 2 to 7 per cent. Thomas H. Roberts president of DeKalb AgR-esearch DeKalb, 111.," which claims to be the nation's largest producer of hyb-ird seed, spoke Friday after a meeting in Washington with Agriculture Secretary Clifford M. Hardin.

Del D. Walker, president of the American Seed Trade Association and head of Funk Brothers Seed Blooming-ton, 111., said, "Reports that the entire corn seed crop was in danger of being wiped out by the blight are greatly exaggerated." Experts in Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio, Indiana and other corn producing states said it was too early to be sure how serious the damage would be. rp in CHANNELS 12 Now in Fall Lineup, 2 Face Challenges ALBANY, N.Y.

Hint Given On '71 Draft Of Doctors WASHINGTON (AP) The saying that too many of this year's medical school are gambling they won't be drafted, says doctors may be called into the Armed Forces next year. Dr. Louis Rousselot, assis-stant secretary of defense for health, said in an open letter to the medical community yesterday he can "visualize the real necessity of requesting the director of Selective Service to order physicians for duty in the summer of 1971." There were 246 doctors drafted last year but none this year.

The Pentagon currently is working toward a zero draft, or no draftees for the Armed Forces. The armed services allow doctors to volunteer for duty while in intersnship or speciality training. They are deferred while in school but enter, the service upon completion of training but if called. CflfiLE TV DIFFERENT Bookies Tell City Where To Go for Trade Secrets viously taken testimony in Washington and at Jackson, where two young Negroes were killed by gunfire during a demonstration May 14. At its final session at Kent State, the commission was told that only Ohio National Guardsmen fired guns during the May 4 disturbance in which 11 students were also wounded.

George Warren, an attorney on the commission's staff, said FBI agents determined 29 guardsmen fired a minimum of 54 shots in 11 Warren also said the FBI found no evidence of a sniper firing at guardsmen, contradicting an earlier report that sniper fire precipitated the shootings. He said the FBI described guardsmen involved in the shootings, as "terribly scared." Warren, a 31-year-old Lansing, Mich, attorney, said the FBI learned a photographer on the roof of a campus build-" ing "had a camera mounted on a rifle gunstock, something that could have looked like a firearm." James C. Woodring Jr. of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, said he saw a National Guard lieutenant give what appeared to be a hand signal that started the shooting. The 19-year-old told the commission that the officer turned toward the troops, raised his pistol in the air, then turned back toward the crowd of students and "start-" ed to fire point blank into the Woodring said students who had been jeering and throwing rocks at guardsmen seemed to feel they had won a victory as the guardsmen headed back over the grassy knoll toward a safer position.

Then, he said, the troops turned and fired. Says Miss the front and back of Miss Tate's body, Noguchi showed where she was stabb6d in the Chest, abdomen, arms, back and thigh. "In my opinion," he said, "five stab wounds in themselves would have caused a fatal outcome." He said none of the stab wounds was inflicted after she died. Charles Manson and three women followers on trial for the murders of Miss Tate and six others Aug 9-10, 1969, sat quietly as Noguchi testified. Once, Manson smiled, and the three girls whispered to their attorneys.

Earlier, Sgt. Michael McGann, describing what officers found at the Tate mansion, said the killers apparent-. ly did not ransack the house, which contained various narcotics and about $100. McGann said marijuana, hashish, cocaine and the hallucinogenic drug MDA were found at the estate in a living room cabinet, in a nightstand in a bedroom shared by Abigail Folger and Wojieiech Frykowsky and in the black sportscar belonging to Sebring. Before the regular court ses bookmarkers, He estimated they number 10,000.

"If the bettors can find them, then we should be able to, so that we can ask them questions," he declared. Most of the immediate comment from bookmaking circles was unprintable. An aide later corrected Samuels' announcement, however, saying the survey would interview only bettors. At the same time, "however, an employe of the offtrack betting corporation will try to sound out some bookies, he said. The city hopes to get its off-track operation into business by December and to collect an annual $50,000,000 in revenue.

The state legislature earlier year authorized the city to legalize offtrack betting under a city-run offtrack betting corporation. Day Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Thursday Slay Tate mgs sion, the shaggy-haired Man-son, 35, testified in support of a motion asking the sheriff's department to "cease and desist" certain jail practices which he says are "barbaric." Manson, barefoot and clad in -nimpled blue prison said he was placed in solitary confinement once, he said, for giving cigarettes to black prisoners, and the other time when "I was accused of talking to them." The judge postponed ruling on the hearing until Monday, and briefly visited the county jail to look at a mesh screen through which witnesses are interviewed. Manson complained the screen hampered vision and voice communication.

(AP) A wood and brush fire at Storm King Mountain was still burning, but under control, today, hav- ing destroyed about 50 acres of thick pine near here bef pre contained by Cornwall firemen, soldiers from West Point and Palisades Interstate Park rangers. The cause of the fire was not immediately determined, but a scarcity of rainfall in the area in recent months has dried out large sections of woodland north and west of New York City. Another brush fire was burning, but also contained, further south at Kitchen Stairs Mountain in the foothills of the Palisades Interstate Park near Suffern. About 10 acres of woodland was destroyed there before Suffern firemen contained the fire.

Chairman William W. Scranton said the commission would hold working seminars all day before starting to draft its recommendations to President Nixon.

He said he hoped the report would be ready sometime next month. The commission concluded its hearings Friday at Kent State University, Ohio, where four students died in a con-frontation with National Guardsmen May 4.

"All the witnesses agree." The magnate's third wife, Eugenia, died in the couple's villa on their private island in the Aegean Sea. A coroner's report, said she died of an overdose of barbiturates but noted there were bruises on her head, throat and chest.

The corpner said the bruises were the results of "old-fashioned attempts by her husband to revive her after he found her in a coma." Niarchos said he was cruising on his yacht "trying to get some rest with my children after this irreparable tragedy that has. struck us." "There is absolutely no new element in this case," said Niarchos' attorney, Rene de Chambrun of Paris. "I do not understand this new action of the prosecutor who seems to have been trying to hound Mr. Niarchos since the beginning of the case." Prosecutor Constantine Fa-foutis proposed Friday that the Greek penal council the equivalent of an American grand jury meet "at the earliest possible date" to de-t i whether Niarchos should stand trial in the death of his wife. If the shipowner is convicted of the charge, he could receive a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

Normally the penal council would either accept or amend a prosecutor's proposal, but a high court official said today there have been cases of penal councils dropping charges.
