Sept 1 the target date for completion of this latest round of withdrawals Ziegler restated Nixon's plan to keep at least a residual force in Vietnam until pisoners of war are released and missing in action are accounted for but added: "Our ultimate intention is to withdraw all forces once a negotiated settlement is reached" The troop level in Vietnam was as low as 23300 in late 1964 Ronald Ziegler presidential was as low as haauu in late minority report by the Wallace forces on such issues as taxes the economy welfare busing of school children prayer in schools and crime In a significant gesture to par- ty regulars he indicated that if he wins the nomination he will keep Lawrence O'Brien as national party chairman With the proposed platform ready to be mailed to delegates

presumably Other senators said the proThieu faction took advantage of a loophole in the parliamentary procedure rules of the Senate to hold the extraordinary meeting: In Paris the Viet Cong peace delegation denied reports that the Communist negotiating stand at the suspended Vietnam talks has changed Speaking at a briefing session for newsmen spokesman Le Van Sau said neither the Hanoi nor Viet Cong delegations at the peace conference had budged from their year-long adherence to the seven-point plan proposed by Viet Cong negotiator Mme Nguyen Thi Binh in July 1971 Sau said the plan which the United States and Saigon have rejected constituted the "reasonable and logical basis for a political and peaceful settlement to the Vietnamese problem" The talks were suspended May 4 by the United States and he ye ed Ie a ed nd but by the following May was up to 42000 as the United States started its big buildup Nixon made his first withdrawal announcement on June 8 1069 his first year in office and has made seven others since Ziegler said the latest withdrawals were decided upon fol lowing consultation with the South Vietnamese government and "a thorough review of the situation" on the battlefield under Nixon's Vietnamization program In war action South Vietnamese paratroopers marines and armored columns drove five miles into Quang Tri Province today under cover of record US air

Planning Division The City Planning and Zoning Commission in another of its steps over the last eight months towards greater concern about Tucson growth yesterday asked for the analysis within 30 to 60 days Commissioner Jack Sarver suggested postponing higher-density rezoning until solutions are found for the crowding prob lems it creates then asked for the study to spot where congestion is greatest "There's no balance with multi family dwellings" Sarver said "The bulk are on the East I Side I think we've made a mistake let's try to correct it" In a related action at a three-hour afternoon study session the commission asked its staff to draft an ordinance proposal for suburban ranch zoning one house per four acres When the city annexes land zoned suburban ranch by the county it now automatically converts to the lowest-density city zoning urban ranch one house per acre Mayor and City Council approval of the lower-density city classification would give the commission and the council more power It might also slow down expansion on the city's borders Developers which Commis sioner Bobbie Buehl said now are playing the county against WASHINGTON (UPI) With a thumping endorsement of President Nixon's policy the House has put the congressional debate over Vietnam on ice until after Democrats select their presidential nominee The next attempt to enact endthe-war legislation will not come before mid-July when Congress returns from the recess it begins this weekend for the Democratic National Convention th of he tat itil id- ne ss Lns tiC the city would be forced to petition the commission and subsequently the council for higher-density zoning Mrs Buehl said developers repeatedly fail to win county approval for higher-density housing plans "They then get annexed" she said "so they can offer their buyers police and fire protection" Sarver said the commission should consider suggesting a one-year moratorium on annexations and Commissioner Peggy Gieske said such a move might help fill in large areas of undeveloped land within the city but the idea was dropped In a two-hour session Chair man Kirby Lockard and Mrs Gieske the only members of the nine-person panel present heard pleas for looser parking requirements at multiple-unit buildings for the elderly The City Parking Ordinance requires one-and-a-half parking spaces for each apartment or other housing unit though developers of facilities for the aged said the parking need is much less If the requirements were relaxed more units could be built on a given lot or landscaping and open space could be Quang Tri which fell to the Communists on May 1 was the only province captured by the North Vietnamese in their spring offensive South Vietnamese were under orders from President Nguyen Van Thieu to recapture it By nightfall they had killed 235 North Vietnamese at a cost of seven government troops killed and 41 wounded front dispatches reported The dispatches said one force had penetrated four miles and another five miles into Quang Tri along a 12-mile front The South Vietnamese advance was near the coast so that the big guns of 17 US 7th Fleet destroyers and guided missile cruisers could hammer the Communist positions Brilliant sunny weather set in and US Air Force Navy and Marine planes aided the effort The assault came as President Nguyen Van Thieu signed Into law
