A special Federal Court panel ruled Monday that a Gary mayoralty election pitting Negro Democrat Richard G.

Hatcher against white Republican Joseph Radigan shall be held Tuesday despite charges and cross-charges of vote fraud. Three Federal judges, sitting on the eve of the racially tinged election in this steel citv of almost residents, enjoined the Lake County Election Board and other defendants in two suits from barring anyone to vote on the basis of race or color. The Indiana Supreme Court, meeting while the Federal judges were hearing testimony, approved Indiana Gov. Roger Branigin's callup of the National Guard to quell any election day violence that might erupt in the racially tense city. National Guardsmen and Indiana state troopers mobilized near Gary to guard against possible disturbances.

Guard units assembled at the Lake County fairgrounds at nearby Crown Point and one-fourth or more of Indiana's State Police gathered at the Porter County fairgrounds at Val--paraiso. Branigin ordered the troops to the Gary area on the basis of information that the city, on the southern tip of Lake Michigan, could erupt into violence after the ballots are counted. More than half of Gary's residents are Negroes.

"In short, the State Department proposes to go ahead with its plans to sell F-5's to Latin American countries," Reuss told the House. AID Page 5 WASHINGTON The House Appropriations Committee approved on Monday a skeleton $2.2 billion foreign aid money bill, slicing $1 billion from the administration request and placing stringent limitations on the use of aid to help underdeveloped countries obtain sophisticated weapons. The administration suffered another setback as the chairman of the Appropriations Committee told the administration its anti-poverty bill may be cut by half a billion dollars or more.

The action on foreign aid came on the heels of a letter from Secretary of State Dean Rusk, politely but firmly declining to cancel U.S. plans to make F-5 supersonic jet fighters available to some Latin American countries. The Rusk letter, dated Nov. 4. was 'addressed to Rep.
