LOORY Timet Staff Writer WASHINGTON Despite the breakdown of the Paris peace nego- tiations and an increase in enemy infiltration into South Vietnam, President Nixon promised Monday night to announce a further drawal of troops from the war zone within two or three weeks. He is now studying the data, he said at his first press conference in 2Vt months, and will decide on a number to be pulled out shortly. "Looking to the future I believe that we can see that the Vietnam war will come to a conclusion regardless of what happens at the bargaining table," the President said.

"It will come to a conclusion as a result of the plan that we have instituted, on which we are em-b a for replacing American troops with Vietnamese forces."

After two days of listening to evidence presented by Dep. Dist.

Attys. Aaron H. Stovitz and Vincent T. Bugliosi, the County Grand Jury returned the indictments before Superior Judge William B. Keene late Monday afternoon.

Indicted along with Manson, who refers to himself variously as "Jesus," "God" and "Satan," were: Susan Atkins, 21, formerly of San Jose and known to the Manson "Family as Sadie Glutz. Her story to a jail cellmate late last month reportedly clinched police suspicions about the hippie cult. She provided the grand jury with incriminating evidence against all six suspects, including herself. Charles (Tex) Watson, 24, former high school honor student and star athlete, now in jail in McKin-ney, his hometown. He has said he will fight extradition.

DONOVAN Timet Washington Bureau Chief WASHINGTON Worried over the dangerous economic and political consequences of unchecked inflation, President Nixon bluntly threatened Monday night to veto the hodgepodge tax bill taking shape in the Senate. "No," he, declared at a televised press conference in the White House when asked whether he could sign a tax bill if it included these two provisions now in the Senate measure: An increase in the personal income tax exemption for a taxpayer and his dependents from the present $600 to $800, and A 15 increase in Social Security benefits. Responsible for Living Cost "All of us," the President said, "want Social Security to be higher. But when I consider all of these matters, I have to think also of this fact: the fact that as President, am the one who has the primary responsibility for the cost of living in this country "It. would be very easy for me to sign a bill which reduces taxes.

But if I sign the kind of a bill which the Senate is about to pas3, 1 would be reducing taxes for some of the American people and raising the prices for all the American people. I will not do that." The incredibly bulky tax bill has not yet passed the Senate, although the Senate has approved the two. items condemned by Mr. Nixon.1 Furthermore, the bill already differs in many respects from an earlier tax measure passed by the House. Hence the two measures will have Lt.

Many of the raids of the last two years have been marked by bloody shootouts between police and Panthers. (:.

Last Thursday, following such a shootout in Chicago in which the party's Illinois, chairman and a ranking officer of Us Peoria chapter' were killed and four other Panthers" and two policemen wounded, an attorney for the" national party organ-' ization said Congress would be asked' to investigate police tactics in the' crackdown. The attorney, Charles R. Garry of San Francisco, said the Chicago shootings brought to 28 the number of Panthers killed nationwide in clashes with police since 'January, 1968.

Be that as it may, Mr. Nixon is still deeply concerned about the inflationary effects of the legislation now taking form.
