The sources reported that both assured the Hanoi regime of continued firm political, moral and military support.

But they made it clear at the same time in almost identical terms they cannot risk confrontation with the United States which indirectly limits the scope of their assistance. They did not ask for specific concessions from Hanoi in the suggested effort for a settlement with the United States. But they implied the need for some degree of flexibility that would pave the way for an end to the war. The diplomats said the effect of the two-pronged "intervention" by Peking and Moscow in Hanoi was shattering. Distrust of their allies' designs has now added to the disappointment of China's limited rail supply routes to North Vietnam, were said to be used to capacity with virtually no room left for any appreciable increase.

(UPI) Top Moore administration officials have been named defendants in a suit filed by a Virginia trucking company seeking a federal court order to compel the state to honor a liquor hauling contract. Russell Transfer Roanoke, filed the suit Wednesday in U.S. District Court here. It also asks that the state be prohibited from awarding the contract to any other firm. Bids on a new contract were to be opened by finance officials today.

Named defendants in the suit were Gov. Arch Moore, Finance Commissioner John Gates and Purchasing Director Ben Rubrecht The suit alleges the contract, which Russell Transfer won first move.

McGovern's campaign to. win the Democratic presidential nomination today depended on Republican Chief Justice.Warren E.

Burger and the vacationing Supreme Court. So did the tenuous presidential ambitions of Hubert H. Humphrey, Edmund S. Muskie, George Wallace, and a long list of others eager to assume leadership of the party. Also at stake was the possible bolt from the Democratic party by McGovern, stripping Chicago Mayor Richard Daley of any role at the Democratic National Convention and the specter of a shattered party facing President Nixon in the presidential campaign.

The Supreme Court became the arbiter of Democratic politics- Wednesday when the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C., in a split decision, ordered the national convention to award all of California's 271 delegate votes The Democratic party's 1 credentials committee stripped McGovern of 153 of the 271 votes, leaving the front-running South Dakota senator dangerously short of the votes needed to' win the nomination. The credentials committee ruling was upheld by a federal district court. But in a stunning reversal, the Circuit Court of Apeals the votes to McGovern. The South- Dakota senator's top campaign aides, Gary Hart and Frank Mankiew- icz, immediately claimed a total of 1541.5 delegate votes, a comfortable cushion above the 1,509 needed for nomination.

The same court," on the same day, gave McGovern another boost when it upheld the credentials committee and the District Court in throwing out Daley and 59 uncommitted delegates from Illinois. McGovern claims 40 of the 59. In a day of swift legal developments, expedited by the opening of the convention, July 10, the Democratic National Committee urged Burger to convene the high tribunal in extraordinary session to hear an appeal. Burger has several choices': He can convene the court (four of the nine justices are not in Washington) to hear the appeal; he can refuse to hear the appeal, or he can grant a stay of the order as the Supreme Court Justice assigned to the District of Columbia. If the Supreme Court should rule against McGovern and strip him of 153 of California's delegates and the judgment is sustained by the convention, the front-runner for the nominatior would still lead on the first and for going over the top would be severely damaged.
