8 8 8 FORT LAUDERDALE NEWS, Oct. 17, 1966 High Court Silent On Free Counsel For Misdemeanors (Continued from Page One) guaranteed in the 14th Amendment when their voting strength goes to a candidate they opposed. Buckson also complained that the system discriminates against small states. For one thing, he said, the shift of a few votes in a big state like New York can change the vote of 43 electors the Electoral College, while the shift would change only three electoral votes. Besides that, Buckson argued, citizens of larger states are afforded a better opportunity to presidential candidate.

other states, including eight of the original 13, have never had a citizen in the White House, he pointed out. Buckson's suit originally was against all the other states, but Injections Improve Learning (Continued from Page One) ently reproduce affirmative results. Most of the inconsistent experiments, Dr. Byrne said, had involved attempts to extract a form of nucleic acid from brain materials of trained rats for use in injections. His own experiments used brain materials that underwent a minimum of alteration during extraction.

In one series of experiments, Dr. Byrne said, one group of rats was taught to press a bar to get a pellet of food. Extracts of brain material were prepared from this group and injected into a second group of animals. A third group, the control animals, was injected with brain materials from untrained rats. Both groups then were taught to press the bar to get food.

About one-fourth of the rats injected with the extract from untrained animals failed to learn at all. In contrast, all of the rats that received the brain extract from trained rats learned the task quickly. Arkansas, Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Dakota, Utah and Wyoming later transferred to his side. Delaware did not foot the bill for the lawsuit. The National Small Business Assn.

advanced about $10,000 to cover the expenses. NEW YORK REPLIES New York, which filed a reply, said none of the states realigned with Delaware claimed authority from its legislature to take "a a position inconsistent with established state All those states attacked "the statutes of their own legislatures," New York Atty. Gen. J. Lefkowitz said.

In order to bring an action directly in the Supreme Court a state must be "acting in its quasi-sovereign or proprietary interest," Lefkowitz said, but "Delaware claims only to be acting in the interest of individuals." The New York legal officer told the court, "Delaware's real complaint is that the general ticket system exaggerates the voting power of the larger states and therefore relegates the smaller states to the political shadows. "The issue in this case is therefore not the right to vote; the issue is political power and the political arena is the place to decide this DRIVING RIGHTS The court also declined to rule on New York State's authority to refuse an automobile cant operator's becuuse of license his to an asserted appli- disregard for law and a propensity for crimes of violence. Reuben Kemp the applicant, said in his appeal to the high court that New York State law violated his federal constitutional rights since he was barred from use of the highways because of a criminal record "totally unrelated" to operation of an automobile. The state's motor vehicle commissioner denied Kemp a license because of disregard for law "especially evidenced" by convictions for murder and assault which "indicate a lack of respect and consideration for the rights and personal safety of other Yes, though I walk through the valley of.

High resolution spectroscope studies in the past year indicate surprisingly large amounts of hydrogen compounds in the Martian atmosphere, Dr. Kaplan reported at the American Chemical Society's western meeting today. Hydrogen compounds are considered necessary to life. Many scientists have argued recently that life on Mars is impossible because the planet's gravity seems too weak to prevent hydrogen, the lightest element, from floating off into space. (AP Wirephoto) ROBERT KING HIGH WAVES DURING RALLY YESTERDAY AT HIALEAH Miami mayor and candidate for governor was host at barbecue Kirk, High Exchange Insults (Continued from Page One) ber one supporter, wife Faith.

High said "she has joined the campaign." Each candidate arrived at the meeting with an entourage of aides and several members of the news media. Kirk rapped High as an antibusiness, pro-taxer candidate, tied to the apron strings of the Johnson administration. He chided the Democratic nominee on the auto sales tax, saying High favored increasing the levy from two to three per cent, but now is hedging. Kirk interpreted High's stand as telling the auto industry "lay still fish, while I gut Kirk described himself as the "first qualified financial expert to be governor of any state." He reiterated his stand that "the state can go forward without any new However, High ripped into Kirk's tax position, saying the Republican nominee has proposed an expansion program in welfare, education and conservation that'll cost $1 billion. High warned that Kirk's election will mean "either deficit financing or an increase in real estate taxes." The candidates gave conflicting pictures of High's record as Miami mayor.

Kirk said Miami taxes were increased, a $9 million city surplus was "dissipated" and retail business dropped while High was mayor. High said Miami's taxes dropped 12 per cent, the city has the lowest tax level of the 92 biggest cities in the United States, and the greater Miami area was number one in industrial development in 1960-65. And High said Miami is at the top of the list in the Southeast in retail sales. High said his wife would travel with him until election day, Nov. 8.

She represents one of the "silent issues" in the governor's campaign, Kirk's divorce. The Republican nominee has made his four children part of his campaign. The Highs have six children. High told the auto dealers that after receiving their statistical data on the effect of an increased sales tax on autos, "you have persuaded me tentatively that further taxes on the industry might be punitive." High said there "is a lesson in this transaction. Business and government must get along if the state is to prosper." Later, High is scheduled to address a labor meeting in Daytona Beach and Kirk plans to campaign in Broward, Palm Beach and Dade counties.

At Daytona Beach, Florida members of the International Typographical Union endorsed High because of his "strong prolabor position." The union, in annual session, approved a resolution saying Kirk "has by word and deed aligned himself irrevocably with the most antilabor interests in the state." As the printers met, Kirk criticized High for his "ultraliberal" labor support. Kirk also told a Loxahatchee barbecue rally that under the Miami mayor's leadership, "the in Miami is crime." only thing that has, prospered High said at a Hialeah rally attended by more than 20,000 that he hopes to end forever "the evil of sectionalism." Over, the weekend, High got the support of four Florida newspapers--the Orlando Senthe Tampa Tribune, the St. Petersburg Times and the Daytona Beach News-Journal. The Sentinel said: "It will be Democrat High and a Democratic legislature and the virtual guarantee of central Florida's hopes and aspirations, or it will be Republican Kirk and a roadblock legislature and one heck of a mess in FOUND HYDROGEN Boycotted Markets Deserted (Cont. from Page One) professed concern for high prices.

One store manager, Red Owl's Lou J. Hughes, called Miller's announcement "stupid" and said the action was an admission that the store's prices were too high. Mrs. Paul West, head of the Housewives for Lower Food Prices, said the Miller price cuts were "a step in the right direction." But she said the group would investigate the new prices before deciding whether to end the boycott against the store. The organization, which four weeks ago began its plans for a "bean-to-bacon" boycott campaign, said it already has more than 100,000 women in its ranks.

They won't carry banners or march, Mrs. West said. They simply will buy their food from the independent grocer instead of the large chain supermarkets-even though a survey pointed out it was cheaper to shop in the stores to be boycotted. TO HOST MEETING The Denver area Better Business Bureau will host a meeting Thursday between housewives and representatives of the five stores being boycotted. Officials said there was a chance Mrs.

Esther Peterson, special assistant to President Johnson for consumer affairs, would attend. Mrs. Peterson told a Colorado congressman yesterday: "I'm a housewife and I know what I'd be doing if I were in Denver." 25 Teens Find New 'Wild Life' (Continued from Page One) the youngsters found from Thursday night through Saturday afternoon. Then Robert Noe and Kolke spied a porcupine in a tree. They climbed up and knocked the animal down.

At sundown, another band of hunters carried a second porcupine into camp, slung under a pole in tribal tradition. Over a roaring fire, the students roasted the beasts and made porcupine broth. Coutsas said the expedition "was a complete success. The cooperation was good. They worked together and everyone did his part." "Yes, but we were too Sue Walenski said.

"We scared all the animals away. It was all right after they came back. I would have liked to have stayed another couple of days." 'CIVILIZED' FOOD The students ate their first meal ham-burgers, milk shakes and French fries-at a resaurant yesterday in Bay City. There, Doug and Sherri McIntosh were voted "king and queen of the woods" because they appeared the worst for wear. After the 25 piled out of the school bus at home, they gathered into a tribal victory council and sang, to the tune of "The Old Gray "Oh they said we couldn't do it but we did.

"Oh they said we couldn't do it but we did. "We caught two old porcupines and cooked them up just real fine. "Oh they said we couldn't do it but we did." LB.J Signs Bill To Insure Deposits Up To $15,000 WASHINGTON. (P) President Johnson has signed a bill raising from $10,000 to $15,000 the amount of federal insurance on deposits at commercial banks and savings and loan associations. The increased insurance coverage is effective immediately.

The addition is not retroactive. It applies only to But a French couple, Drs. Pierre and Janine Connes, using improved spectroscopic equipment designed by Connes, found indications of a concentration of hydrogen compounds around Mars 1,000 times greater than in the earth's atmosphere, Dr. Kaplan said. A spectroscope converts the radiation given off or absorbed by atoms and molecules into lines and bands.

These lines and bands identify the elements. Dr. Kaplan, who analyzed the observations obtained by the Conneses, said they produced "spectra 10 times better than any we have had on Mars before." He said his analysis showed that gaseous compounds containing hydrogen were the most likely explanation for new absorption bands seen in the nearinfrared spectrum of Mars obtained by the Conneses at the Observatoire de Haute-Provence last year. The hydrogen compounds observed on Mars probably included methane derivatives and perhaps methane itself, Dr. Kaplan said.

Methane appears on earth as a gaseous hydrocarbon product of the decomposition of organic matter in marshes and mines. It is sometimes called marsh gas and 'is known to be produced by anerobic bacteria bacteria that do not require the oxygen that is essential to most life on earth. Dr. Kaplan warned that discovery of the hydrogen compounds on Mars is not proof that life exists there. If any does exist, he said, "it would be extremely primitive and not dependent on oxygen." Dr.

Kaplan was a member of the Cal Tech-JPL team that re- Slain Girl's Body Found Near Church MILWAUKEE, Wis. (UPI) The blood-spattered, partiallyclad body of an 18-year-old girl was found today on the grounds of a Roman Catholic church, just nine blocks from where a 10-year-old girl was slain last month. The latest victim had been missing since last night. She was identified by her father as Sherryl Thompson, who lived few blocks from the church. The girl's brother, an altar boy, had earlier seen the girl's jacket on the way to the parish school, and identified it as his sister's.

An autopsy was being performed to determine the cause of death. The churchyard where the girl's body was found is in the neighborhood where police have cracked down on roving gangs of youths. (AP Wirephoto) LBJ, LADY BIRD READY TO BOARD PLANE during farewell at airport this morning Sampan President 'Fleet' Leaves Is Sunk (Continued from Page One) forthcoming Manila conference. The dispute involved a fight by southerners to get a more authoritative voice in government and a larger share of the power now held for the most part by northerners. It also represented a rebellion of sorts by civilians against the military government controlled by the National Leadership Council which is composed of 11 generals.

Informed sources said the basic complaint boils down to a feeling the military is "hopelessly corrupt and interferes in things they know nothing about without careful study." The crisis was sparked by the arrest two weeks ago of Dr. Nguyen Tan Loc, a southlerner and cabinet director, by one of the generals on still unspecified charges. He was released a short time later, but the incident infuriated Loc's southern colleagues. The delta fight erupted yesterday when U.S. Navy patrol craft and U.S.

Army gunship helicopters spotted a huge convoy of sampans about 56 miles west-southwest of Saigon. The boats and choppers moved in with their guns blazing and South Vietnamese troops moved along the bank. The boats contained an arsenal of weapons and ammunition. Several of the sampans disappeared in huge explosions. The government troops seized 90 weapons, 45 hand grenades, mortars, medical supplies and 20 pounds of documents.

Countless other war goods went to the bottom of the canal. Officials said U.S. and South Vietnamese forces did not suffer a single casualty. Except for the sampan battle, scattered ground fighting conItinued on a small scale. claims originating after signing of the bill.

The White House aerial caravan through the Far East involved other Air Force planes carrying tons of office equipment, supplies, gifts for host presidents and prime ministers, and personnel in the fields of security, communications and logistics. Also speeding along the Johnson jet-path was an enormous White House press party well over 200 reporters, photographers, broadcasters, television crews and communications specialists traveling aboard two chartered jets. Meanwhile, newspapers in Adelaide and Sydney said today they have received telephone calls saying an attempt will be made on President son's life when he visits Australia this week.

The papers said anonymous calls were referred to the Australian security service. It declined to comment, but a senior police officer in Sydney said it is not unusual for the police to receive all sorts of telephone calls and threats to important visitors to Australia. New Zealand Prime Minister Keith J. Holyoake also said today that "sneak threats" are being made to him, his wife and daughters in connection with Mr. Johnson's visit.

Holyoake, in a statement at Wellington, said someone had telephoned him to report overhearing a group of men plotting the prime minister's assassination. Forecast FT.
