it's been relatively light expected them to make a bigger stand but it's tough for them to fight out here in the open We've got air support they don't "But if they decided to put all their people in

reverse the Credentials Committee He told Rauh that the committee's action "might not be cricket it might even be dirty pool" but he asked "is it constitutional?" While Rauh contended that constitutional right are at stake Califano disputed this and maintained that the courts have no place in the controversy "Presidential politics that's what is operating at

to decide which player would play the white pieces and have the first move of the match Continued from page Al especially during the year 1976" He termed the action unprecedented Noting that America has been peopled by immigrants from many lands the President said it is time to say to the world's nations: "You helped to make us what we are Come and see v'hat wonders your countrymen have worked in this new country of ours Come and let us say thank you Come and join in our celebration of a proud past Come and share our dreams of a brighter future" Nixon said that as the bicentennial approaches

York Times News Service WASHINGTON Two former high-ranking officials of the Johnson administration claim that Robert McNamara while secretary of de fense specifically ordered the Air Force to stop all rain-making late in 1967 well before its first use in North Vietnam But other officials who served in both the Johnson and Nixon administration said they recalled no such clear-cut order It was not clear whether McNamara's order was disobeyed ignored or as one official suggested "There was a kind of slippage" in putting it into effect The New York Times reported that the United States had secretly been seeding clouds over North Vietnam Laos and South Vietnam since at least 1967 in an attempt to hinder North Vietnamese infiltration and suppress enemy antiaircraft fire Yesterday in response to questions about the Times dispatch Jerry Friedheim the Pentagon spokesman commented "I don't have anything new today" He cited a previous statement by Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird made last month at a hearing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee The secretary asked about rainmaking had said: "We have not engaged in any over North Vietnam" Friedheim asked about cloud seeding in Laos Cambodia or South Vietnam replied "I can't enlarge on the question" The Times dispatch was based on more than a dozen interviews with present and former high military and civilian

investigator to conduct a blue ribbon probe of the recent attempted bugging of Democratic National Headquarters in move urged upon Nixon by Democratic party Chairman Lawrence O'Brien Ziegler said Nixon believes the incident "should be pursued with an extensive investigation as is being undertaken by appropriate authorities" Scored By O'Brien In Washington O'Brien issued a statement saying: "I find Mr Nixon's attitude toward the blatant act of political espionage against the Democratic party to be cavalier and cynical I can only conclude that the President the White House and the Nixon re-election apparatus indeed have something to hide" Ziegler also discounted reports that former Secretary of the Treasury John Connally might be named to head the US negotiating team at the Vietnam peace talks in Paris He said there were "no plans at all for Secretary Connally to be involved in the Paris negotiations or any other aspect of negotiations regarding the situation in Southeast Asia"
