The court was in recess today for Washington's birthday. How the code of conduct is affected by the Pueblo case was shown Thursday in testimony from Radioman 2.C. Roy- "Perhaps it is inartfully written and in need of revision," Newsome told newsmen Thursday, referring to an era of cold war when men are not taken prisoner of war but are "illegal ly detained The code of conduct, promulgated by then President Eisenhower after the Korean War, says that U.S.

The Popular Front also is held responsible for attacks on Israeli settlements close to the Lebanese border in an attempt to embroil and embarrass Lebanon's "bourgeois rulers."

intercontinental missiles protected in underground silos. But he did say the Russians might consider using it for surprise attack against such "soft land targets" as bomber bases. In spite of the surprise potential of an orbital bomb, the United States has been developing radar that can "see" over the horizon, giving the alarm shortly after such a warhead is launched. Another possible defense could come from the Sentinel missile defense system, according to testimony Thursday from Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird.

He told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that among the options being studied in a review of the now suspended Sentinel program are means to protect against an orbital bomb attack. One of Laird's statements that attracted considerable attention was his disclosure that the Soviet Union is moving ahead with a "sophisticated new ABM system." Asked for details the Pentagon would say only that "we have evidence of continuing Soviet activity toward improved sophistication in the antiballistie field." Citing security reasons, the Defense Department refused to provide details except to say that "the research tests are related to both software and hardware items." 1 STONE RINGS Birthstonei, cultured pearl, onyx many other GROUP 1 Values to $22.50 $g00 GROUP 2 vt" $in $49.50 I yj Reg. $795.00 Value WEDDING RINGS 14K white or yellow gold and diamond tot wedding ringt Reduced Today Only.

Threats to drive the Jews into the sea are now taboo. The proclaimed objective is a secular state of Palestine in which Jews and Arabs can live together in harmony and peace. Leaders of the new joint guerrilla command are quietly suggesting that they may try to confine their commando attacks to Israeli military targets. The guer "as have no illusions about srael's military strength, and they don't look for a quick victory.

"Our struggle may take 20 years, but eventually a direct confrontation with the Israeli army seems inevitable," said one top guerrilla. He foresaw no possibility of a settlement with Israel's present "ruling Junta." But the new policy is designed to appeal to the Sephardic Jews, those originating in Arab countries who are becoming an increasingly important element in Israel. "Israel must cease to exist as a political entity," said the guerrilla leader. "It will be replaced by a Palestine in which Jews and Arabs enjoy equal rights." No leaders are publicly condemning the Zurich attack by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. But the other guerrilla groups probably frown on such exploits.

The Popular Front, itself divided into feuding wings, is the maverick of the movement. It stayed out of the new joint guerrilla command, linking three major organizations, and refused to drop its Marxist doctrine. "The Front believes there can be no revolution without political theory," said a spokesman. "We believe in the leadership of the workers and peasants and believe it will be they who achieve the liberation of Palestine. Numerically, the Popular Front is no match for Al Fatah, the largest and best organized of the guerrilla groups.

Robert F. Kennedy are about to surface in his first legree murder trial. Defense attorneys said they would object strenuously to their introduction on grounds they were seized illegally from the Sirhan home.

The prosecution's witness list for today included Sgt. William E. Brandt and Dante A. Lodolo of the Los Angeles police who found the notebooks. Mayor Samuel Yorty of Los Angeles made the first reference to the 9-by-12 books soon after Sen.

Kennedy died. Sirhan. he said, wrote of "the necessity of assassinating Sen. Kennedy before June 5, I8." The death date was met. Kennedy was shot early that day in a pantry of the Ambassador Hotel just after winning the California Democratic presidential primary.

The date also was the anniversary of the first Arab-Israeli war. Sirhan, a 24-year-old Jordanian who lived the first half of his life in the strife-torn Middle East, was "quite pro-Arab in the Arab-Israeli matter," Yorty said. Sirhan's attorneys have pictured him as tortured by war scenes he saw as a child in Palestine and inflamed by Kennedy's advocacy of more U.S. planes for Israel. Last Oct.

They indicate that accumulating evidence, presumably gathered from Soviet tests monitored by the United States, points toward the Kremlin's intention to mount the program, called a Factional Orbital Bombardment System. This conclusion comes only a month after Cark M.

Clifford, in his final report as secretary of defense, said the United States was uncertain about Soviet use of the FOBS. Pentagon sources said, however, the Clifford statement reflected assessments made in the last months of I'H8. An FOBS would be boosted into a low orbit, generally about 100 miles above Earth, and would be fired by remote control at ground targets before completing its first circuit. The low altitude would enable the orbital bomb to avoid detection by U.S. early warning radar.

Officials refuse to discuss in telligence, but it is known that the Russians have conducted at least 111 FOBS tests. The first seven reported flopped, but the next six were said to have worked. The Soviet Union's experiments with an orbital bomb were disclosed by Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara Nov. 3.
