THALER United P-tss International LONDON China and Russia independently advised Hanoi to settle with the United States without much further delay, authoritative Communist diplomats said today. Both Communist allies of Hanoi cautioned separately that in the light of latest developments the fortunes of war may turn against North Vietnam. 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. Changing strategy The diplomats said the effect of the two-pronged intervention by Feking and Moscow in Hanoi was shattering. Distrust of their allies' designs now has added to the disappointment of the North Vietnamese leaders with the al-1 footdragging of both China and Russia in recent months over the conflict. The political and war councils were said to be hard at work in Hanoi on the scope of future strategy. While Peking's and Moscow's advice TRENTON Gov.

William T. Cahill says he soon will appoint a number of women to judgeships and other positions in state government. Cahill made the remarks yesterday as he signed into law bills to extend rights to both youths and women. As expected, Cahill signed a measure extending full adulthood to 18-year-olds. Cahill also signed a bill deleting the requirement that women indicate their marital status when they register to vote.

He said the measure signified the new status of women as individuals and ends the stigma of unnecessary classification. "This does not grant a new right," he said, "but it removes an old wrong."

The court also enjoined any move in Chicago courts to reinstate 59 delegates led by Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley. First is the party hierarchy, which defends the committee as the proper body for deciding such matters and wants the high court to declare the selection of convention delegates off-limits to the federal courts. On the other hand, forces loyal to Daley argue that the courts should upset the committee once more and restore convention seats to the mayor and 58 allies.

McGovern forces announced yesterday afternoon that the appeals court action gave their candidate more than the 1,509 delegate votes needed for nomination.

The Associated Press delegate count, which does not list officially uncommitted 1 e-gates who are leaning toward a candidate, showed McGovern with 1,436.65 votes. But Humphrey was in no mood to concede. He noted that the Supreme Court had not yet spoken and argued further that it would be the ultimate judge. See COURT. Page A-2 in fall?

The organizers said it had been agreed in principle to hold the drawing, tonight to determine which player would have the white pieces and, with them, the first move.

The young American, in a letter delivered by hand this morning to the world chess champion from the Soviet Union, apologized for what he called his disrespectful behavior. Fischer whose delayed arrival doubled the prize money for both him and Spassky, but also started an avalanche of confusion asked the Russian to accept sincerest apologies.

COOPER and JOHN J. GOLDMAN Los Angeles Times News Service WASHINGTON In restoring his California delegates, the federal appeals court here yesterday may have removed the biggest obstacle to Sen.

George McGovern's presidential nomination next week, but it added new tonnage to an iceberg that could sink his campaign next fall. The iceberg is Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley, without whose help even the most optimistic McGovern strategist sees little hope of carry-ing an all-but-indispensable state. And even before yesterday's ruling against Daley, the results of several days' strategy sessions and secret missions by the McGovern camp indicated the South Dakota senator's problem with the mayor already was critical. Illinois is essential In terms of electoral arith-m i Daley is considered vital because his organization, last of the great city machines, must supply the huge Democratic margins in Chicago that are necessary to offset Republican dominance in the rest of the state.

As for trying to win the White House without carrying Illinois, McGovern strategists have discussed it in recent days.
