The brief says that although the general claim is for com-penaatlor In tertni of money, compensation in the form of land adjustments or additions to reserves would not be ruled out. On I'AWA (CP) ITie Union of British Columbia Indian Chiefs presented Prime Minis ter frudeau Thursday with a claim for compensation for the loss of British Columbia to the white man. If the union has a valid legal claim, the prime minister replied, it should be settled in a fair way.

With the convention to start Monday night, two major credentials cases which involve 151 McGovern delegates from California and 59 Illinois delegates led by Chicago Mayor Richard Daley remained in a legal limbo.

MIAMI HI If, I la. (AP) -Senator Edward Kennedy still will have "first refusal" on the ('-presidential nomination if Senator George McGovern captures the Democratic presidential nod, sources close to the South Dakota senator said today.

Bohle, 24, Michigan City, Chief Justice Warren Burger extended indefinitely Thursday a delaying order in the case so he could consult with his eight U.S. Supreme Court colleagues on whether to call a special session to consider appeals In the two cases. The U.S. Circuit Court in Washington ruled Wednesday that the party's credential's committee had acted illegally in voting to replace the 151 McGovern delegates from California with representatives of his rivals in proportion to their vote in the state's June 6 primary.

At the same time, the court rejected Daley's appeal from the credentials committee decision that turned his seats over to a challenging group. Democratic party lawyers asked Burger Thursday to convene the court for what would be its fourth special summer session in history. They said the Circuit Court's ruling would "very likely" make the federal judiciary the convention kingmaker. The two cases are crucial, especially the California one, in McGovem'i quest for victory on the first ballot. Including the 151 California votes.

I've paid cash in advance for everything we do." For the Republicans that would be no problem. But the Democrats still owe $9.3 million from the 19H8 campaign and once-burned creditors aren't rushing forward baring their cuffs.

Strauss, a Dallas lawyer, inherited the debt years ago when he became treasurer, and hasn't made a dent in trimming it. But his money-raising wizardry has kept the party running at a cost of $200,000 a month and it has survived the interval. Now it is time for the convention in Miami Beach an American playground as expensive as it is hot. "The city agreed to do certain things for us," Strauss says. "Cities by tradition have put up money.

We said to the city, we don't need money. What we want is facilities. "What we want is a half-million dollars in goods and services and we want a half-million from other sources in cash, tourist agencies, hotels, etc. We get $1 a night of every room booked through the hotel association. "We originally figured it would raise $100,000, but it's going to be closer to $50,000.

One of the major networks came in and booked all their own rooms and cost us several thousand dollars just by not going through US." MIAMI BEACH, Fla.

Mr. Lawrence was commenting at a news conference on a published report that the Siderno group, apparently a code describing its members who came here as immigrants from the Italian port town of the same name, has established itself in the city as a powerful, active crime syndicate.

He took the American's lateness in his stride, greeting Fischer in a friendly way when he finally turned up and wishing him good luck after the draw was made. Chess experts here believe the 35-year-old Spassky is the one to have suffered most from the delay in the start of the 24-game series, caused largely by Fischer's habit of turning up late or not at all for the initial tournament functions the opening game in particular. night and ill have the ad an-tage of the first move.
