Friedheim said there is no evidence that any Chinese engineer troops or laborers have gone to North Vietnam to help work on the pipeline or repair bombe d-out railroads and bridges.

During the 1965-1968 phase of the air war, an estimated 50,000 Chinese railroad troops worked on this type of repair inside North Vietnam. Friedheim described the roleum and other supplies in Chinese ports for tran-shipment to North Vietnam. The line being laid in sections is described as the stan-d a Soviet-manufactured r-inch diameter tactical pipeline with a maximum daily capacity of about 1,100 tons, it was reported.

Defense officials have estimated that North. Vietnam has ports toward their border with North Vietnam to meet the section moving up from Hanoi. He indicated he believes that the Chinese would use railroad tank cars to haul petroleum products to a juncture with the North Vietnamese, pipeline.

At the same time, the Pentagon moved to reduce its inventory of beef, lamb, pork, fish and poultry by 50 per cent. The Defense Department said it annually buys 123.3 million pounds of beef at a cost of about $117.4 million. It also buys 75.6 million pounds of pork for about $46.3 million and 59.6 piillion pounds of poultry at a cost of about $23.9 million.

It is our intention to reduce our purchases of beef by 10 per cent for the next four months, a Pentagon spokesman said. We could cancel all meat purchases for a period of only 15 days in view of our low stock levels. If we did stop all purchases, however, our subsequent re-entry into the market might have an adverse effect on prices. The announcement noted that defense buying of meat products amounts to only a fraction of total U.S. production running annually at about 77 billion pounds.

In a strongly worded message, Nixon argued that one major purpose of the Corporation, at its inception hi 1967, was to encourage inovative and diverse programming around the country, but that this purpose had since been corrupted by the Corporations and the Congresss increasing disregard for local-, ism. There are many, fundamental disagreements concerning the direction which public broadcasting has taken and should pursue in the future, Nixon said in part. Perhaps the most import tant one, he went on, is the serious and widespread concern expressed in Congress a within public broad- -casting itself that an organization, originally intended to serve only local stations, is becoming instead the center of power and the focal point of control for the entire public broadcasting system. 1 Reds Blast Nixon Move TOKYO (AP) North Vietnam showed no sign Friday of any change in its position on a settlement of the Indochina war, despite President Nixons announcement the United States will return to the Paris peace talks.
