He discovered Frost, influenced Yeats-Pound was his secretary and helped gain an audience for poet Ford Madox Ford. But at his death," Pound was a. man without a country, an enigmatic exile forever fixed in the American mind as a disloyal madman who broadcast propaganda for Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini and spewed messages of hate to Jews Activities Bring Indictment They were activities which brought him indictment, but never a formal charge, of treason by a U.S. grand jury. He never recanted the political beliefs which sent him to jail and an insane asylum St.

Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington, D.C-for 13 years, until Frost, Hemingway, Eliot and poet Archibald MacLeish convinced Washington to free him to return to Europe. He returned unrepentant to Italy in 1958, where he greeted newsmen with a stiff-armed Fascist salute and proclaimed: "All America as an insane asylum." Pound spent the of his life in the German-speaking Alpine town of Merano, the home of his daughter, Mary, or in Venice, with occasional trips to Spoleto and the Italian Riviera. He rarely spoke to outsiders is Nixon (Continued from Page I ly favored for re-election. Nixon does not wish to offend Democrats who are likely to win regardless of what he does. But he has decided to make a last-minute effort to boost GOP candidates in other states.

Ziegler said Nixon would spell out his position on amnesty for draft dodgers "at the appropriate time." Asked if the explanation might come before the election, Ziegler said Nixon "will choose the time." The press secretary hotly rejected Democratic criticism that Nixon had changed his mind on the subject. The President told a television interviewerf in January: for wll be; jwerjr iiberl with regard to amnesty" once the war is over and all POW's have been released. But last Saturday he told the family of a soldier killed in Vietnam that he would "never" grant amnesty. "He has never changed his position on amnesty," Ziegler said. "He feels very strongly that draft dodgers and deserters should pay a penalty." But Ziegler refused to say what the penalty might be, saying only that Nixon would "address himself to that later.

Investigators attempted to take finger prints at the steak house but were unable to lift any good specimens. There was evidence the thieves used gloves. The theft was discovered by a teenaged employe of the steak house, John Harmon, 17, who reported for work at 9 a.m.

Further investigation by sheriff's deputies revealed that the thieves had pried on the doors to the other buildings in the Windfall Shopping Center but were unable to gain entry. Aro (Continued from Page 1 House itself might become involved. There have been instances in the past were dead men have been elected to Congress. For instance, Rep. Clem Miller, a California Democrat, was killed in a 1962 plane crash while campaigning for re-election and was voted into office four weeks later.

A special election chose his successor in the following January. But the Boggs-Begich situation raises a new legal specter both are considered missing and mere is no present proof they are dead. With no precedent to go by, the problem seems to rest on the governors of the states-William Egan of Alaska and Edwin Edwards of Louisiana. Other Occasions In the new Congress, the House will convene Jan. 3 when every member is sworn in.

There have been occasions in the past when individuals have been unable to appear for the formal oath-taking ceremony and no adverse action has been taken. There is little prospect that the incoming House would declare either Boggs or Begich ineligible if they were not on hand for the swearing in. Basically, the problem seems destined to land in the laps of the governors who are entitled to declare a House seat vacant upon the death of a member iand to call for a special election to choose a successor. McGovern (Continued from Page 1 nominee so far has confined his comments to approval of the proposed settlement, questioning why Nixon waited until the last week of the election to negotiate it and vague warnings that the administration may now be seeking to withdraw from the agreement because of the objections of South Vietnam. But McGovem is holding back from a broadside criticism of the administration's failure to initial the agreement.

His aides are fearful that if he does, he would be accused of interfering with the negotiations and could look foolish if the agreement is finalized before the election. Nonetheless, Mankiewicz said the candidate may change his tactics and start getting tougher when he addresses the nation on television for a half-hour next Friday. VENICE, Italy (UPI) -Poet Ezra Pound is dead at 87, the last and possibly greatest giant of a fabulous literary era which embraced such friends and disciples as Ernest Hemingway, T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, William Butler Yeats, Robert Frost.

D.H. Lawrence. Critics and writers hailed him as a pioneer in reshaping' the language of the 20th century English even as they deplored or assailed his political beliefs, a muddled mixture of anti-Semiticism, fascism and funamentalist economics that caused him to be indicted for' treason in World War II, confined to a mental hospital for 13 years and then self-exiled to his beloved Italv. "He outlived them all, all of them," said novelist James Dickey. "With his death an era comes full circle." Pound Dies in Hospital Pound died Wednesday night in a Venice hospital, two days after his 87th birthday and 24 hours after doctors admitted him for treatment for an intestinal blockage.

His longtime companion, Mrs. Olga Rudge, was at his side. Pound was the only American poet included in the recently published New Oxford Book of English Verse. He shaped the poem which later became Eliot's masterpiece, "The Wasteland," persuaded a publisher to take a Nixon Blasted (Continued from Page 1 for alterations of the points agreed upon, the agreement can never be signed to end the war and restore peace in Vietnam." Today's VNA broadcast said: "Mr. Kissinger arrived in Saigon to confer with Nguyen Van Thieu Oct.

It was in the same period that President Nixon sent to the DRVN (North Vietnam) prime minister two messages, one dated Oct. 20 and the other Oct. 22, affirming that the U.S. side still considered the text of the agreement to be complete, expressing his 'satisfaction at the explanations of the DRVN government and proposing Oct.

But this is a false pretext that cannot stand. Is there anybody who does not know that the Nguyen Van Thieu puppet, administration is an instrument of U.S. aggression and neo-colonialism in South Vietnam? Thieu owes his existence to U.S. dollars and bombs.

Thieu cannot survive if he does not receive U.S. backing. He cannot on his own oppose the policies and decisions of the United States." Wednesday, Thieu declared he would never accept a settlement "that offers South Vietnam on a plate to the Communists" and the Communists labeled him "an enraged puppet" whose intrasigence was blacking an accord and called again for his ouster.

"Divine Comedy." Most Inventive Poetry: In his most productive years, Pound wrote some of the most inventive poetry of this century and edited the writings of other poets, sharpening then into what critics called masterpieces by proxy. Pound won dozens of honors, one of them the prestigious Bollingen Prize awarded in 1949 by the US. Library of Congress. Ironically, he won it while confined in the Washington asylum-Only this year a panel of writers-nominated him for the annual Emerson-Thoreau Medal" awarded by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. The academy voted against giving him the award, chiefly because of his political beliefs.

Pound was born Oct. 30, 1885, in Hailey, Idaho, the only child of a civil servant, he later rose to assistant assayer in the U.S. Mint. His father also minted his own money briefly until ordered to stop. POLICE John Ebert, 1324 S.

Daring thieves took advantage of the dark and raining skies early this morning to break into the Cimarron Steak House at Windfall. Once inside the thieves peeled the restaurant's safe and made off with an undetermined amount of cash. Steak House Manager Pete Morris would not make even ah estimate of the loss for Tipton County Sheriff Richard Ziegler, who is handling the investigation. It is believed that the safecrackers made off with at least the night'; receipts from the restaurant.

Wednesday night the Tri -Central High School football team ate at the steak house Sheriff Richard Ziegler said the thieves'pried on the door frame at a side entrance to the building to gain entry. Once inside they ripped the door off the small office containing the safe. The safe door was peeled back by the intruders who pounded at one corner until they could get a pry bar under the door's exterior wall. The floor in the office was littered with concrete and other debris from the safe. Loose change and a few one dollar bills were also found left behind.

Investigators theorized that the thieves broke into the building sometime after 3 a.m. today. The sheriff's first deputy Barney Brankle said he checked the area while on patrol at about 2:45 a.m. and found no evidence of the break-in.
