Praise, Ire Greet Speech By Kissinger
LONDON (AP) - Britain and West Germany welcomed Henry Kissinger's call for a new Atlantic Charter, but judgment was reserved in France, where press reaction to the U.S. presidential adviser's plan ran拢 from skepticism to hostility.
Kissinger's call, made Monday in a speech to The Associated Press annual conference in Washington, called for constructive by the British government. Bonn expressed appreciation for his statement, which based future U.S.-European relations on a continued American military presence.
In Paris, however, the French Foreign Ministry said it had yet to receive a text of the speech and reaction—if there was any—would not come for a few days.
All the Paris papers commented on the speech and most of them ran it on the front page.
In an editorial, Le Figaro predicted London and Bonn would welcome the proposals but warned, "It is less certain that France will welcome them without reserve. Paris has always regarded with great suspicion any alliance which may be proposed to the self and兰母 because of the specific weight of the principal partner."
This view was reflected by another journal European said it seems unlikely France join a new treaty including Japan or contribute its forces to a new integrated army, according to the newspaper.

Vice President Archer at Senate Meeting Monday
Declares recall edition out of order
U.S. Formally States Viets Violated Peace
In a note to 10 other nations that agreed to guarantee the Jan. 27, pact, the United States said: "It is abundantly clear that the main obstruction to peace consists of the military activities carried out by the United States in support of success under its control in South Vietnam."
WASHINGTON (AP)—The United States formally accused North Vietnam Tuesday of an illegal troop and supply buildup and assassinations and kidnappings in South Vietnam in violation of the Paris ceasefire accord.
Specifically, the State Department charged Hanoi with infiltrating more than 30,000 Army personnel into South Vietnam in an effort to destroy anti-aircraft artillery units and ringing the Khe San air field with SA-2 missiles, and more than 400 tanks and armored vehicles.

An attempt to out the Student Senate failed Tuesday when a petition brought to the senate by the Coalition of Concerned Organizations was declared out of order.
The petition, signed by more than 1,300 students, called for the removal from office of every member of the Student Senate elected for the academic year 1973-74, the administration enacted by the newly elected Students' Senate and immediate new elections.
Nancy Archer, Anamosa, Iowa, junior and vice president of the student body, declared the petition out of order on the grounds that there were no senate rules regarding recall or impeachment of student senators.
Mickey Dean, Sandersville, Ga., junior and spokesman for the coalition, said later at a press conference that the act tended to be illegal. "We have a biased policy of the Student Senate."<sup>9</sup>
"The tactics used by the Student Senate have no justification and, in fact, are geared toward the elimination of minority groups on the University campus." Dean said.
Dean said the coalition had planned no immediate action.
Charles Oldfather, University attorney, uphold Archer's decision. Archer assigned the question of recall procedure to the Senate Student Rights, Privileges and Responsibilities Committee.
In other action, the Student Senate voted to fund Women's intercollege Sports with $9,300 from funds intended for the University of Kansas Athletic Association (KUAA) under earlier budget recommendations.
Final approval of the budget is still pending.
The change came in the fourth alternative budget prepared by the senate Finance and Auditing Committee. In the earlier budgets, Women's Intercollegiate Sports was allocated funds under the category of organizations.
The Finance and Auditing Committee prepared two alternative budgets for the Monday meeting after the senate referred the budget to the committee at the April 19 meeting. The budget considered Monday, Alternative Budget No. 3, was struck down unanimously.
In consideration of Alternative Budget No. 4, the senate voted to allocate $800 to the Em府ium bookstore. The funds will come from other sources and are supplied. If the budget is accepted, the

A $100 addition to the Women's Coalition allocation was passed. The increase would provide for long-distance telephone funds for abortion referral.
The restraining order, issued by Jess McNish, adjunct professor of business and head of the Judiciary, was in response to a suit filed Tuesday on behalf of Martin.
The suit charges that Archer, in her capacity as chairman of the senate, wrongly denied Martin the right to vote on the Senate. Martin was labeled misinterpretation of the Senate Code.
was issued Tuesday by the University Judiciary.
Martin said he thought the position of senate treasurer should remain detached from senate politics and the treasurer should not, in fact, have a vote. He said, however, that the Senate Code stated that senators must be elected by an elected senator and based on this portion of the code, he was seeking to maintain that position.
The temporary restraining order will remain in effect until the Judiciary complete action on Martin's suit. Under the judgment, Martin retains full senatorial powers.
The senate voted early this morning to recess until 6:30 p.m. Thursday.
Competition will move to the Wesley Student Center. Without the funds, it would not be able to compete.
The senate also voted to add funds to the Black Student Union's (BSU) $75 telephone allocation. This action makes the total BSU allocation $85; BSU requested $71,125.
Archer made the interpretation during a Senate meeting Thursday.
A motion to increase Headquarters' allocation $3,600 to help provide for a new director failed. Headquarters requested $3,600 more from the senate and $3,600 more

White House Denies Charge
ABC Says Rogers Is Watergate Adviser
WASHINGTON (AP)—ABC News reported Tuesday that President Nixon has called upon Secretary of State William Rogers to deal with White House problems stemming from the Watergate case. A presidential spokesman denied it.
ABC correspondent Bill Gill will Nixon wanted Rogers to help restore "an impceable integrity" to the White House operation.
Gill, who reported that he had been told Rogers conferred secretly with Nixon in Florida over the weekend, later said that their conversation was by telephone.
Ziegler also said that Nixon "has made no occation at all regarding staff restifications"
WHITE HOUSE PRESS Secretary
White Ziegler said there had been
no denial of the report.
Gill quoted White House sources as saying they expected the President to announce that Rogers would personally direct an overhaul of the President's staff.
Another administration official said he had talked to Rogers by telephone and that the secretary told him he hadn't been asked to play such a role.
MEANWHILE, PRESIDENTIAL aide John Ehrlichman and former Nixon campaign chief Clark MacGregor disagreed Tuesday over whether an interview with the campaign organization last August when the affair was just unfolding.
Erichman said he proposed then the fullest disclosure to MacGregor and to the whole planning group, but the in-house investigation was not made. His comments were reported in the Washington Star-News and confirmed by the White House.
"AT NO TIME during the months of 1972 ago did any Nixon administration
official request Ehrlichman to conduct a Waterate investigation." MacGreer said.
He also said Nixon had made Easter Sunday telephone calls to Haldern, Erichhman and presidential John Dean III to "wish them well on Easter."
Wilson was seen by newsman at the White House again Tuesday, while the President still was in Florida. He later was seen at the federal courthouse where the Watergate grand jury was meeting, but said the visit was in connection with another case.
DEVAN SHIUNWAY, spokesman for the Committee for the Re-election of the President, also was at the courtroom meeting with prosecutor Earl Silbert.
Asked if he now thought he had been deceived into issuing denials that staff members of the Nixon campaign were informed that he was not told the truth at all times."
The Florida White House said Tuesday that President Nixon wasn't involved in making an offer of executive clemency which Watergate burglar James McCord Jr. testified he received through intermediaries.
"The President has not made such an offer, nor have there been any discussions with the President about executive clemency." Warren said.
Transcripts of grand jury testimony quote McCord as saying the offer came from the wife of co-conspirator E. Howard Hunt, and that he had been assisted with lawyers for the Nixon campaign.
Deputy press secretary Gerald Warren confirmed in Florida that John Wilson, the former New York City police chief of staff H. R. Halldeman, met with Nixon Nixon last Thursday at the White House.
18 City Organizations Present Fund Requests
By CHRIS STEVENS Kansan Staff Writer
Eighteen Lawrence organizations appeared before the City Commission Tuesday night to present their requests for federal revenue sharing funds for 1973.
Nancy Hambleton, Lawrence mayor, said the commission would meet privately next week to review the revenue funding requests.
"We need to get the overall picture," Hambleton said. "The organizations that attended the meetings gave us a good index of what's going on in the community."
The State and Local Fiscal Assistance Act of 1972 requires that the revenue funds be used for the provision of public expenditures are to cover public services such as safety, transportation, health and recreation. Maintenance of city buildings and equipment is also included by the state.
Commissioner Jack Rose told the meeting that federal revenue sharing funds made up only five per cent of the Lawrence city budget.
"People have been ballybored by the government," Rose said. "It has led a lot of people to believe that there is more money than there really is."
Lawrence Memorial Hospital, represented by Warren Rhodes, chairman of the board of trustees, requested federal funding of $150,000 to meet requirements set by the Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals.
The Douglas County Legal Aid Society asked for $6,000 for office supplies, secretarial services and incidentals. The Legal Aid Society is a non-profit organization that helps low income persons unable to pay the legal fees. The work is done by University of
