South Viet Meet Little Resistance In Quang Tri SAIGON (UPI)-A South Vietnamese force moved into Quang Tri city today, set up a command post and fanned out through the ruined city's business and residential districts. However government spokesmen said they would not list the city as recaptured until government troops controlled the walled citadel in the center of the town. Military sources said the troops met only light resistance but no attempt was made to storm the citadel, the possible Communist headquarters.

A South Vietnamese task force moved north into Quang Tri province more than one week ago. So far, fighting has been relatively light and allied officers said they do not know where the estimated 48,000 Communists who took the province May 1 are hiding. The provincial capital, Quang Tri city, has been levelled by bombing attacks since the Communists captured the province. Two miles southeast of Quang Tri City at sundown Tuesday, a battalion of about 500 Commu- nists attacked government troops in an assault led by 18 tanks and at about the same time, another battalion attacked seven miles east of the city. No casualty reports were available on either skirmish.

UPI correspondent Barney Seibert reported the troops entering Quang Tri City today radioed back that it had been leveled by bombardment. Heavy naval shelling and aerial bombing preceded the Vietnamese capture of the province, South Vietnam's northernmost, May 1 and during the government drive to retake the city over the past eight days. The province fell to the Communists a month after they launched their offensive in South Vietnam March 30. It is the only province still in North Vietnamese hands. Seibert said that behind today's lead elements entering Quang Tri City was the main body of a paratroop vanguard, 1,000 men strong and backed by tanks, that pushed forward from positions half a mile and mile south of the city.

NAACP Attacks Nixon's Policy on School Busing DETROIT (UPI) The national convention of the NAACP passed a resolution Tuesday accusing President Nixon of "arousing passions of hate and bitterness" with his stand against choolbuingforracialbalance. terness" with his stand against school busing for racial balance. In the only resolution passed by the 2,300 delegates Tuesday, the second day of the week-long convention, the group called Nixon's antibusing remarks during his recent signing of the Higher Education Act "a divisive strategy totally destructive to a constitutional form of government" amounting to "changing the in the middle of the game." "The President of the United States has picked up the 'never never' battle cry and is leading the mob in its assault upon the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause," the resolution said. "He is invading the prerogative of a co-equal branch of government, the judiciary, by proposing legislation designed to interfere with the power of the courts to correct constitutional U.S. Grant Gives H-P Go-Ahead KAKUEI TANAKA Japan Has New Leader TOKYO -Kakuei Tanaka, 54, a pro-American politician who rose from farmboy to industrial magnate, was elected prime minister of Japan today to climax a hectic campaign select a successor to Eisaku Sato.

Tanaka will officially take office Thursday following his certification by the Diet (parliament). Under Japan's parliamentary system, delegates of the ruling party elect a party chief who automatically assumes the post of prime minister. Tanaka was elected on the second ballot of a nationally televised special election caled by the ruling Liberal Democratic party. He polled a majority of 282 votes with a total of 476 party delegates casting ballots. Tanaka beat former Foreign Minister Takeo Fukuda in a runoff made necessary because none of the original four candidates got a majority on the first ballot.

Fukuda had 190 votes. Tanaka recently introduced a radical plan to revamp Japan's industrial organization. The plan would move heavy industry out of congested urban areas in an effort to reduce the nation's growing pollution. In foreign affairs, Tanaka advocates continued close ties with the United States while trying to bring normal relations between Japan and China. Tanaka, sometimes called a "computerized bulldozer" because of his decisiveness and his adroitness in mathematics, was a loyal aide to Sato, who resigned June 17 after holding office for a record seven years and eight months.

But Tanaka broke away from the retiring premier when it became known that he was Sato's choice as a successor. Sato supported Fukuda. Tanaka bowed and raised his right hand in response to a great burst of applause when he was declared the winner. He went to the rostrum and sat next to Sato. "I assume my responsibility for dealing with many outstanding problems confronting us," Tanaka said in a short speech of acceptance.

Richard H. May, chairman of the California Committee of Two Million, quoted Collier as saying he delayed a hearing on the two bills because "nothing is going to happen there (on the rivers) in 20 years." But May said the federal government already has its on the Eel River for possible dam construction or diversion to the Sacramento River. And he said heavy sediment and turbidity already in was polluting the rivers. May said any further delay of by the committee would kill the bills because there isn't much time remaining in the 1972 session for regular legislation. The committee secretary said Collier had delayed the bills because of the crush of other important legislation.

Other groups joining in the plea that Collier give the bills a hearing were the Sierra Club, the League of Women Voters land Trout Unlimited.
