Until early this year, officials contended Downey was a civilian employe of the Army. 3ut then Nixon admitted he was a CIA employe. Downey walked to freedom earlier today across the Lowu border bridge dividing China and Hong Kong. He smiled broadly as he left China and walked to a U.S. helicopter that took him to a special hospital jet for the flight to Clark.

Newsmen were forbidden to speak to him, but a government photographer called out: were you held?" "Peking," replied. When he arrived at Clark, the reception center for returning American POWs, he stepped briskly from the C9A evacuation plane that carried him from Hong Kong.

HAMILTON, Bermuda (UPI) --Police working with Scotland Yard detectives detained several persons for questioning today in the murder of Gov.

Sir Richard Sharpies and his aide Saturday night. Police sources said they were convinced two gunmen were involved in the assassination. Sharpies, 57, and Capt. Hugh Sayers, 25, were shot in the gardens of Government House, the governor's official mansion, as they walked Sharpies' Great Dane "Horsa" after a dinner party Saturday night. The dog also was killed.

The murders came six months and a day after Bermuda Police Commissioner George Bucket! was shot to death in his home and his daughter wounded. Duckett's killers have not been found, but police said they believed there was a definite link between his murder and the assassination of Sharpies. Two Scotland Yard detectives, who left Bermuda only two weeks ago after investigating urithout success Duckett's murder, returned Sunday and a six-man team of detectives and forensic science experts from Scotland Yard were en route today to supplement Bermuda's 359-member police force. A spokesman for the Bermuda government, Colin Selley, said police had not disclosed how many persons were being detained under special powers granted under the State of Emergency declared Sunday morning, but Selley said the number could be counted "on two hands." He said police began their investigation by questioning the more militant elements among Bermuda's black population, but police so far have declined to say the assassination was racially or politically motivated. One official said Sunday, however, that the shootings were "not the work of a nut." Police so far have given only scanty details of the actual shooting, which took place Saturday night between 11:30 and 11:45 pjn.

The grounds are not fenced off and are transversed by several public roads. demanded to where Prigg kept his being told he had no safe, the two forced Mrs. Prigg into a bedroom where they bound her with white medical type tape and then forced Prigg into; a recreation room and bound him with the white tape.

The two were there for about 30 minutes and thoroughly ransacked the house before leaving. Mrs. Prigg finally freed herself and her husband about 20 minutes after the bandits left. One was described as being about, six feet, five inches tail, weighing about 200 pounds and appearing to be between 23 and 25 years old. He was wearing a light colored ski mask and carried a revolver in his hand.

The other was approximately 45 years old, and approximately six-feet, two inches tall and about 175 pounds. He had a light piece of nylon over his face and was armed with a chrome plated revolver. District Tavern Entered by Thieves Approximately $80 was taken by burglars who broke into The Coop nightclub in UpperTyrone Township, near Everson, sometime between 3:10 and 3:45 ajn. Sunday. According to State Police the thieves got into the juke box and cigarette machine, taking the coins from them.

In another weekend district theft, police reported a minibike was stolen from Thomas Mehalek of Kubins Trailer Court, Vanderbilt, sometime after 6 p.m. Saturday. A battery was stolen from a car owned by Linda G. Kiel of Vanderbilt Saturday evening while the vehicle was parked in Perryopolis at the intersection of Rtes. 201 and 51.

6 Dead, Wreck Towns HUBBARD, Tex. (UPI) -The worst of 10 tornadoes that buzzed across Central Texas during the weekend killed six persons in Hubbard and left a third of the town's buildings in piles of splinters and bricks. A similar twister hit Burnet, about 130 miles to the southwest, destroying at least 200 homes and injuring 30 persons. There were no fatalities at Burnet, where the tornado zigzagged through town. But at Hubbard, the twister zeroed directly in, hitting the ground near Trading Horse Creek Reservoir, a few miles to the southwest "It never left the ground after that," said Charles F.

Hunter of the Texas Department of Public Safety. 'He said the twister chewed across at least 15 miles of blackland farms Saturday before reaching homes, churches, and businesses in Hubbard. "The house just fell in on my son and his wife," said Ira Gaunt, grandmother of Dwane Voss, 6, who was killed when his parents' home was destroyed in the storm. "It blew my grandson dear across the room," The child's parents were hospitalized, but Mrs. Gaunt, who also lived in the house, was not hurt.

She said she was in her bedroom when the storm hit and ended up in a hallway outside. "But my door never opened," she said. National Guard groops ordered into Hubbard and Burnet were released from duty Sunday evening. Gov. Dolph Briscoe and Sen.

Lloyd M. Bentsen both asked President Nixon to declare the two towns disaster areas. The child and three other persoos were killed immediately. Two of them died in two different mobile homes which were lifted into the air and smashed to the ground. Two other victims, including a 72- year-old woman died later in hospitals.

The Red Cross provided shelter in a high school field house in Burnet for about 60 persons whose homes were wrecked. Gaullists Win In Election MOUNT PLEASANT James Shaffer, 44, of Mount Pleasant, R.

"Good sense has won," said Interior Minister Raymond Marcellin. Leftwing leaders called for demonstrations to protest the result. Before the vote, experts and many politicians predicted a dose finish between the Gaul- lists, who have governed for 15 years, and the alliance of leftwingers. The government lost about 100 seats from the huge majority it rolled up in the 1968 elections and this, political sources said, indicated that voters wanted a change but not a revolution. With only seven of 490 results left to report, Gaullists and their rightwing allies held a 90- seat majority over the Union of the Left and a majority of 59 seats over all rival parties combined.

Of the of 490 National Assembly seats filled, results gave the Gaullists and their dliss 27! seats to seats for the Communists and Socialists. A middle-of-the-road reform Woe won 28 seats and an extreme rightwing group won three seats. Antong the toing candidates were Foreign Minister Maarice Schumann and Justice Minister Rene Pteven. Hubert Germain, reform group, Jean Lecanuet and Jean-Jacques Servan- Schreiber. Sixty of the 490 seats were filled in first-round voting a week ago and the other surivors of the first round competed Sunday in the run-off round.

"President (Georges) Pompidou is elated by the results," said a spokesman at the Elysee Palace. Senator Voices Opposition To Hanoi Aid WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen. Richard S. Schweiker, said Sunday he would have a hard time voting for aid to Vietnam. Schweiker said he felt the federal government should meet its domestic needs first "I'd have a hard time voting for aid to Vietnam when we don't have enough to take care of our people back home," he said.

"I think our priorities are wrong." Schweiker made his remarks on his monthly radio and television report to Pennsylvania. nis guest was Mrs. Lee Ducat, president of the Philadelphia- based Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. "By I960, one of five Americans will have diabetes or its inherited trait, and yet today we are spending only $1.00 a year on each diabetic American," the senator said. "I am very won by 13 votes.

Other GauOist ministers won, as did Communist party leader Georges Marchais, Socialist party leader Francois Mitter- rand and the two leaden of the going to be cut to perhaps 11.00." Mrs. Ducat said more research was needed to find a cure for diabetes. Only one unarmed security officer was at Government House at the time of the shootings. Police thus far have refused to say what weapon was used in the ambush. Sharpies' two daughters, Fiona, 23, and Miranda, 21, also were flying to Bermuda today.

Sharpies' two sons, Christopher, 26, and David, 17, are sailing their father's yacht to Bermuda from Rio de Janeiro. Two frigates of the Royal Navy, including the HMS Minera on which Prince Charles, heir to the British throne, is serving, were trying to locate the yacht. "They left Rio de Janeiro March 7 and the navy is trying to find them," said Sharpies' land agent in London, Patrick Giles. "They have a radiotelephone on board but I don't know its range. They also have an ordinary radio receiver so they may have heard the news by now if they have been able to listen to broadcasts," Giles said.

Ian Kinner, the island's chief secretary, was sworn in as governor immediately after the killings. He immediately ordered a state of emergency, which permitted police to detain suspects without official charges or warrants. Tourists were allowed to leave after they and their luggage were searched and inspected at the airport and at the docks. Senate Control In Doubt PHILADELPHIA (UPI) Democratic control of the state Senate hinges on the outcome of a special election Tuesday to fill the seat of the late Sen. Benjamin Donolow.

By virtue of a 3-1 registration margin over the Republicans, Democratic candidate Francis J. Lynch should be the clear favorite. But strong campaigns by Republican David M. Marston and A. Benjamin Johnson, a maverick Democrat running on an independent ticket, have left the outcome in doubt.

A Lynch victory is crucial to Gov. Milton J. Shapp and ruling Senate Democrats. The Democrats, who rarely vote as a solid block in the first place, hold a 25-24 edge over the Republicans in the Senate. Lynch, a solid party supporter during his four terms in the state House, would give Senate Democrats a 25-24 margin plus one more vote they can always count on.

If Marston wins the Senate would be thrown into a 25-25 deadlock. Lt. Gov. Ernest Kline can ease tie-breaking votes on procedural questions or on amendments but he is not permitted to vote on a bill when it comes down to final passage. If, for example, the final vote on the governor's budget were 25-25, Kline could not break the deadlock and the budget would be defeated.

Lynch, 51, has been a House member since 1966 and would keep his House seat if he loses the special election. Marston, 30, is an attorney and a graduate of Harvard Law School. He ran unsuccessfully against Lynch last November for Lynch's House seat. Owning Violations Reported by Mayor In S. Connellsville Numerous violations of the borough's burning ordinance have been reported by Mayor Robert H.

Spending Proposals Would Raise Taxes WASHINGTON (UPI) President Nixon's top domestic adviser says the real way for the government to raise money is by "closing loopholes" for the average taxpayer, including stopping mortgage interest deductions, contriDutibns his church or the Boy Scouts or if you don't let him take personal exemptions." "There is no way to raise the $15 billion, for instance, that the spenders in the Congress want to run over the President's budget unless you start digging into the average taxpayer's exemptions for charitable contributions or mortgage deduction," John D. Ehrtich- rnan said Sunday He was interviewed on ABC's "Issues ar.d Answers." Some Democrats have argued that closing certain tax loopholes favoring the rich and corporations would produce the necessary funds to finance most federally-sponsored social programs. Ehrlichman ridiculed the idea. money by making every taxpayer pay some tax, you don't raise very much money by making every corporation pay taxes," he said. "Where you really can raise money by closing loopholes is if you don't let the average householder deduct the interest on his mortgage; if you don't let him deduct his contributions to his church or the Boy Scouts or if you don't let him take personal exemptions.

"If you can't deduct $750 anymore on your income tax for every one of your youngsters-that's a loophole, you know-and that's one of the loopholes that would have to be closed in order to raise the kind of money that we are talking about in these bills." Ehrlichman emphasized that Nixon is determined to hold the line on the budget both to avoid a tax hike and to keep from fueling inflation. He said Nixon will continue to veto spending bills that exceed his budget and will refuse to spend at least part of the money if his veto is overridden.
