31. Cloud report Loans called indefensible Sporting World Wage-cost increases targeted From Wirt DiipatelM WASHINGTON President Nixon, faced with a battery of unfavorable economic news and forthcoming congressional elections, apparently has decided to name a watchdog commission to expose inflationary wage and price Increases to the glare of publicity. Several Administration sources said yesterday Mr. Nixon will announce the panel when he delivers his long-awaited economic message to the nation at noon today on radio and television. THE PLANS, which one source emphasized are not concrete, call for a panel of from nine to 15 members, most of them to be drawn from private life and others from the government.

Although the group would have no power to roll back wage or price increases, the government is betting that unions and business will reduce their demands rather than be publicly accused of adding to the worst inflation since the Korean War. "It could have quite a beneficial impact," an Administration economist said. The President also reportedly intends to make a direct appeal to business and labor to help cure inflation. THE PRESIDENT considers the nation's economy to be basically sound despite inflation, the highest unemployment in five years and the deepest business slump in a decade. He can be expected to urge the public to maintain faith in the economy, and he is certain to promise that better days are ahead.

Conviction reversed in mutiny WASHINGTON (UPI) An Army court of review yesterday struck down the mutiny conviction of one of the 27 men charged after the 1968 uprising by prisoners at San Francisco's Presidio Stockade. The court upheld Pvt. Nessery D. Sood's conviction on lesser charge of willful disobedience of a lawful command" but reduced his sentence to one year at hard labor. In San Francisco, Sood's lawyer 6aid that if the reversal stands, it will mean mutiny convictions of 22 other men must be overturned.

Paul Halvonik, of the American i i I Liberties Union, told a news conference the entire legal episode is "a classic example of Army overkill" and said Sood would appeal his conviction on the I charge as well. The Presidio disorder on Oct. 14, 1968, involved 28 prisoners. They staged a sit-down outside the stockade to protest what they claimed was maltreatment by guards, overcrowding, unsanitary conditions and poor food. When the men refused an order to return to the stockade, they were charged with mutiny.

"I called him along with about 25 other people who had been prominent in the Republican party but who had been active in the Brown or Lukens campaign," said Cloud. "I merely said to them and this was a short conversation that if their man won I hoped to support him andfif I won I hoped his people would support us." Cloud beat out U.S. Rep. Donald E.

Lukens and Atty. Gen. Paul W. Brown for the GOP gubernatorial nomination. AT THE press conference, Cloud was asked to make it "crystal clear" if he had ever solicited campaign funds from Donahue or anyone else doing business with the state.

"Certainly not. I have not," he responded. He was also asked if he had been pressured by party leaders to bow out of the governor's race because his' office had accepted a $1,000 campaign donation from Donahue before the primary. "No," he responded. "I haven't had a phone call or a letter concerning that.

No one. has asked me to do that, except a few of the newspapers."

Yesterday he issued a statement saying he had not had a chance to read Cloud's audit report but "my future plans are to work to be elected attorney general."
