Turks, Greeks Are Stalemated At Peace Talks
BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Cyprus peace talks in Geneva were stalemated again yesterday as Turkey and Greece continued to disagree over the Greek troops on the Mediterranean island.
The foreign ministers of Greece, Turkey and Great Britain adjourned their sessions last night after agreement had nearly been reached on a provisional solution.
British Foreign Minister James Callaghan the talks were adjourned for the day.
Greek Foreign Minister George Mavros was less optimistic, accusing Turkey of negotiating at gunpoint in an extremely critical situation.
The Geneva talks deteriorated, Greek Premier Constantine Caramanlis called for a meeting of the United Nations Security Council and the NATO foreign ministers council to discuss Turkey's "unacceptable and nonnegotiable" demands.
A Greek government source in Athens said that acceptance of the Turkish demands would mean the end of Cyprus as an independent state.
Shortly after dawn yesterday, both countries said that they had agreed on a provisional solution to end military conflation. In addition, holding a second round of talks next week.

In Ankara, Turkish Premier Bulent Ecevit said that the presence and size of the Turkish force could not be discussed at the Geneva conference and that a reduction of the force would be considered only "when the time comes."

IEC Fee Grievances Are Settled
By JOHN CRICHTON
Kansan Staff Reporter
Grievances of Intensive English Center (IEC) students about residence halls fees were raised and a vice chancellor executive vice chancellor of the Lawrence campus, said the University was committed to provide room and board to the IEC students each student understood it would cost.
In a meeting with Shankel, 45 of the 54 IEC students who live in Oliver Hall told him they were misled and confused about what they were supposed to do during their 10-week summer semester.
Students showed pamphlets to Shankel that were sent to them in their home countries that said residence hall fees for the entire summer were $300. On a application form that was sent to the students, the students arrived at KU, they were told that the residence hall contract for Oliver that they signed was only for an eight-week
period and that the remaining two weeks of their in-week semester would have to be completed within this period.
They said they found out later this was wrong, that those who had paid $250 or $345 had paid for only eight weeks and that the University was asking them to pay an additional fee for the last two weeks of the 10-week semester.
After inspecting a few of the pamphlets, Shankel said, "Something's wrong here."
Another complication was added to the confusion of some students when they were told upon arrival that they could pay $345 for a single room at Oliver or that they could pay $265 for a double room. The students paid $365 and then paid $245, as quoted on the application for the 10-week period, and thought paying for a double room would save them $75.
Four different prices for summer residence in Olive Hall ( $255, $305, $340 and $345) were allegedly asked from students who had little, if any, knowledge of English.
Oil Producing Nations Want to Invest in U.S.
JIDDA, Saudi Arabia, (AP) — Whether Americans like it or not, oil producing nations expect to invest their vast oil wealth they want and in the amounts they want.
If that means buying General Motors stock to gain control of the auto firm, then oil producing nations such as Saudi Arabia expect to be free to do it.
Yamani's view was echoed by other Sudi officials in interviews here. They were entirely irritated at suggestions that there were no interactions to Saudi control of U.S. corporations.
The Saudi—who may have up to $20 billion to invest in foreign markets this year—are genuinely puzzled by fears in the United States that they might obtain control of major U.S. corporations by purchasing a majority of shares.
"I don't know why you have that fear," said Sheik Ahmed Zaki Yamanan, the Saudi oil minister.
"You should be extremely happy if we decide to do this because there are so many countries on earth who have been extremely poor, and you can invest in their equity market," he said.
The equity market is another term for the stock market.
As one American banker here said, "For years, I've been trying to justify American ownership of foreign enterprises. And suddenly Americans are saying it would be wrong to have foreign ownership of American corporations. It's madness."
Referring to talk in Congress that there should be some restrictions to the amount of
If the oil producing nations can't invest their vast surplus wealth profitably now, they almost certainly will cut back on their investments such a time as they can, the officials said.
Akins and other U.S. officials believe it is imperative for the United States to make attractive investment opportunities in India, Kuwait and other oil prodigy nations.
Estimates of the amounts available to be invested abroad by oil producing nations are staggering. They range as high as $70 million in two years and over $1 trillion by 1985.
foreign ownership of a domestic corporation, Ambassador James E. Akins said, "If we do that, we might as well give up and go home."
Edward Eramus, director of the IEC,
said the students were informed they would
have to pay additional fees at their initial
orientation meeting.
As one IEC student from Iran put it, "We were confused."
Since the bulk of this money will come from the big oil consuming nations, such as the United States, Japan and European countries, it will flow of wealth from the developed world.
"I think they understood the major issues," he said. "Students readily accepted it (the payment of additional fees) in the past."
"We are going to stay here unless they give us the room and board that we'd thought we'd paid for," said Carlos Garcia, IEC student from the Dominican Republic.
Yesterday morning, IEC students boycotted classes and gathered on the floor.
Fifty-four students signed the eight-week contract. Garcia said many thought they were paying for 10 weeks. These were generally students, he said, who had missed the orientation meeting where the situation had been explained.
Garcia said they had trusted the information they had received in the mail, but when they arrived at KU, they found the information was misleading and incomplete.
It is essential to the economies of the developed world that the money be reimbursed.
Such a move would reduce the supply of oil, drive oil prices higher and make a bad world financial situation even worse, they added.
So far, the oil producing nations have not invested heavily in the U.S. stock market.
When talking with the students about the confusion over the fees, Shankel said, "It was our obligation to make it clear to you. We were not supposed to know you. Those of you who thought you were paying for the full 10 weeks with $25 will be provided with the services that you thought you were paying for. Those of you who were only for eight weeks should pay more."
Most Saudi investments - an estimated $8 billion to $9 billion so far - are in short-term investments offering a high return in the United States. Saudi banking officials indicated
"We are going to deal right, legally and ethically with you."
Before the meeting ended, the students said they would return to classes today.
"We will have a solution to this by tomorrow night." Shankel said.
WASHINGTON (AP)—The House Judiciary Committee voted approval last night of a second impeachment article, this time accusing President Nixon of violating the constitutional rights of citizens through misuse of federal agencies.
Judiciary Panel Approves 2nd Impeachment Article
The vote was 28 to 10, as seven Republicans joined all 21 Democrats in accusing Nixon of ordering or condoning wiretapping, privately looking at tax returns and other activities "violating the constitutional rights of citizens."
The bipartisan majority was one vote greater than on Saturday night, when the committee voted 27 to 11 a first article recommending Nixon's removal from office for obstructing justice in the Watergate cover-up. The additional vote in support of his nomination came from Robert McClory, R-Illinois - ranked-ranking Republican on the committee.
The committee recessed immediately after the vote until 9:30 a.m. CDT today.
Still to come are proposed impeachment articles based on Nixon's refusal to heed subpoenas, his secret bombing of Cambodia and his personal taxes. These will be considered today when the committee holds its sixth and perhaps final-day of nationally
Compared with Saturday's grim, tear-evoking drama, the roll call on the second article was almost anticlimactic. Throughout a day of sometimes desultory, sometimes barbed debate, impeachment advocates easily turned back the maneuvers of Nixon's out-numbered President contended the wiretaps were used because of 'legitimate national security considerations.'
Hours before last night's vote, Edward Hutchinson, R-Mich., the committee's ranking Republican, said in an interview that he believed the full house probably would vote impeachment. The comments of one of the President's strongest defenders on Mr. Trump were hastened sharply with Nixon's prediction that he will win vindication from the House.
Speaker carl Albert refused to comment yesterday on a prediction that the House would vote impeachment of President Nixon by a margin of about 70 votes, saying he didn't think it proper for a speaker to discuss such predictions.
A majority House vote would place Nixon on trial in the Senate, where a two-thirds margin is required to convict and remove him from office.
The Senate took its first step earlier yesterday to prepare for a possible trial of Nixon, approving without debate a resolution directing its rules committee to review all precedents. Not since 1868 has a respectful impaction proceeded gone so far.
As they had done during debate on the first article, the anti-impeachment block argued that there was no proof that Nixon did the illegal activities of his subordinates.
Again leading the fight in Nixon's defense was Charles Wiggins, R-Calif, who opened the debate by attempting to have the entire article thrown out on a point of order—that it didn't directly involve "impeachable" that. That complaint was immediately rejected with a neutral vote. Then Wiggins offered amendments aimed at narrowing the charges.
By a vote of 28 to 9, the committee rejected Wiggs' motion to include in the specific allegations the words "acting with instructions" from their instructions" where they refer to actions by presidential aides. The impachment bloc opposed the proposed change on grounds it could eliminate actions that the President made in fact even if he had no prior knowledge.
'Big Eat' Farm Owner Wins Injunction Suit
The article included five numbered paragraphs containing specific allegations:
Douglas County District Court Judge Frank Gray ruled Friday against Harold Armold, Kansas director of taxation, in a lawsuit alleging that he was on Schall, Route 1, Lecompton, on whose property the Big Eat rock festival and picnic was to have been held beginning May
Gray said that the matter was not in his jurisdiction and that the tax department had adequate administrative procedures for recovering sales taxes.
Armold had contended that Schall was not registered with the Kansas Department of Revenue but that he sold tangible personal services in connection with Bair Education services in connection with Bair Education.
The state tax board is scheduled to have a hearing on the matter today.
Schall's farm was the location for Big Eat '73, but this year's festival was moved to Lake Contrary, 10 miles west of Lawrence, and from the site to a temporary restraining order against Schall.
Gray hasn't yet announced his decision on a second permanent injunction suit, which will be heard in October. Miller's suit seeks to stop future rock festivals on Schall's ground on grounds of lack of safety.
Lake Contrary, which is on Army Corps of Engineer property, has since been decommissioned.
Gray's ruling in favor of Schall included an order for the department of taxation to
Gray is expected to decide on Miller's suit next week.
—That the President act, personally and through subordinates sought to obtain confidential information from the Internal Revenue Service and also attempted to get the agency to audit the tax returns of political opponents of the administration.
—That the President misused the FBI and the Secret Service by directing the agencies to wiretap government employees and private citizens.
—That he authorized formation of the White House special investigations unit known as the plumbers, who engaged in illegal activities.
—That he failed to adhere to his constitutional oath to take care that the laws be
faithfully executed, after he learned of the involvement of White Houses and campaign
"We feel we have no choice but to start preparations," said Mansfield just before the meeting.

Senate Studies Trial Rules
Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield, D-Mont., with minor Leadership Hugh Scott, R-Pa., to begin formal planning for a possible impeachment trial.
WASHINGTON (AP) -The Senate took its first step yesterday to prepare for a possible impeachment trial of President Nixon.
It approved without debate a resolution introduced by party leaders directing the Senate Rules Committee to review all rules and precedents with respect to trial procedures. The committee is to report to the Senate by Sept. 1.
The resolution was introduced and adopted immediately after Sens. Mike Mansfield, D-Mont, and Hugh Scott, R-Pa., the majority and minority leaders, and their assistant leaders, Sens. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va., and Robert P. Griffin, R-Mich., met for nearly two hours to discuss steps to prepare for a Senate trial.
Mansfield said that they were passing no judgment on whether the House would vote
He and Scott had told newsmen earlier that, in light of the House Judiciary Committee's vote recommending impeachment, the committee will prepare preparations for a possible trial in the Senate.
The resolution the party leaders introduced was approved with only seven senators on the floor. It directs the Rules Committee to recommend any revisions it finds necessary if the Senate is called upon to conduct a trial.
Mansfield said another resolution, dealing with television coverage of a Senate trial, would be introduced in the next day or the following week to the Rules Committee, for consideration.
The committee review, which is to take into consideration changes in the federal rules of civil and criminal procedures since the last impeachment trial of a president over 100 years ago, is to be conducted behind closed doors.
He said TV coverage, if approved by the Senate, would be under very strict rules. He said the cameras would be focused on the well of the chamber, where trial would take place, with no panoramic shots of the Senate as a whole permitted.
The party leaders said there was no discussion at the meeting about whether a Senate trial could carry over from the present Congress to the next one.
But Mansfield emphasized, "I want it behind us this year."
This will be a decision for the Senate as a whole, as will be other questions relating to rules and procedures governing a trial, they said.
Another issue not discussed at the meeting, the leaders said, was how much time the Senate will allow the President to impeach. If the House votes to impeach him.
Escape, Illness Decrease Prison Hostages
The number of hostages held by three armed convicts in a prison library was reduced from 15 to 13 to yesterday after an inmate hostage escaped and an elderly librarian suffered a heart attack. A prison spokesman said Aline House, a 61-year-old librarian, was removed from the third-floor library by inmate at least 30 p.m. about 12 hours earlier, Henry Escannilla, a 40-year-old inmate hostage, beaten through a glass door of the prison library and run down a dabble ramp.
Connally Indicted by Watergate Grand Jury
Former Treasury Secretary John B. Connally was inducted and accused of taking two $5,000 bribes from a dairy cooperative and then committing perjury as part of a conspiracy to cover up the payments. He said he would contest the charges. Also inducted was a former Connally associate, Jake Jacobsen, who reportedly has agreed to plead guilty to the tribary charge and to testify against Connolly.

Wounded Knee Subpoena Issued Kleindienst
Former Atty. Gen. Richard Kleindienst has been subpoenaed to testify in the trial of two men charged in connection with the March 1973 occupation of
the University of Colorado at Boulder, available for testimony now, according to the clerk of the U.S. District Court.
Defense attorneys are expected to question Kleindienst closely on the involvement of military advisers and the use of military equipment during the
Statistics Show Cut in Gasoline Production
High prices have reduced gasoline demand and increased inventories, and now the major refiners are cutting back on gasoline production, statistics compiled by the American Petroleum Institute show. Experts say the refiners are trimming their output because of an increase in available supplies and tightening storage space. They acknowledge that it may also have the effect of keeping prices from falling dramatically.
Washington Star-News Calls for Impeachment
The Washington Star-News, which supported President Nixon in 1968 and 1972, called editorially for his impachment. It said, "It was inevitable once the Watagegate dam began to break that the House of Representatives would be called upon to decide whether President Nixon should be impeached," the paper said. We believe the House has no other responsible choice but to order the President to stand trial before the Senate to answer for the transgressions that have come to be grouped under that word-Watergate-that will forever mark his administration."
