Senate Kills Aid Measure
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate voted Monday night to kill the $1,785-billion military-foreign-aid bill. The action came after the bill was amended to provide withdrawal of U.S. forces from Indochina in four weeks if American prisoners of war were convicted.
The vote rejecting the aid authorization measure was 48 to 42.
Republican Leader Hugh Scott told the Senate shortly before the roll call vote that he felt compelled to vote against passage of a adoption of troop-withdrawal amendmen-
He said the hall, as it stood, would "not help the chances for peace or the war."
ALSO VOTING against passage, but for different reasons, was Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield. He said all along that he was a candidate called a bodepodice for program.
The authorization bill was a first necessary step to appropriation of funds to continue military aid to friendly nations around the world.
The troop-withdrawal amendment was written into the bill by a 50-45 vote in the face of warnings that it could scuttle an invasion that it could negotiate an end to the Vietnam war.
The House has not yet acted on a military-aid authorization bill of its own. It could send the Senate a measure on which action could be taken later.

Women File Complaint with HEW Charge KU with Discrimination
The Women's Equity Action League (WEAL) has filed a formal complaint against the University of Kansas alleging discrimination by sex, with the impartial jury.
The group, in a letter to HEW Secretary Elliot Richardson, requested an immediate investigation and suspension of all coaffect negotiations until "all agencies are eliminated and an acceptance of affirmative action is implemented."
Margaret Gates, chairman of the Action Committee for Federal Contract Com-

"In the ten college departments with average faculty salaries over $15,000, only four percent held office positions," the letter claimed. "In eight professional schools or departments with average salaries over $15,000, only two women, for a total of 2.1 positions."
The letter also said that there were imbalances in the Schools of Education, Journalism and Liberal Arts and Sciences, and in recent hiring practices.
because the University had not acted to correct disqualities where they existed.
WEAL said that they had three pieces of evidence to support their charge: the Office of Academic Affairs Salary Study for 1971-1974, the same study for 1971-1972 and the University Professors (AUA) committee faculty salary summilal for 1971.
WEAL reported that the AUAP study revealed that women, equal in rank with their male colleagues at KU, earned $2.993 million more per year than associate professor, $811 less as an

amendment was rejected by a 49-46 vote.
Scott had predicted that Nixon would enter the administration should be approved by the House.
Sen. John Sherman Cooper, R-Ky., author of the amendment, turned against it after the Senate voted, 62 to 33, to continue a law that prohibits chlorns on release of American prisoners.
THE AMENDMENT, originally offered, put no conditions on cutting funds for all U.S. military forces in Indochina within four months of enactment of the legislation, except the money necessary for their withdrawal.
Sen. Edward W. Brooke, R-Mass., offered the proviso making withdrawal dependent on Hanou's release of American prisoners. Brooke took the position that Cooper's amendment stood no chance without this.
Sen, Jacob K. Javits, R-N-Y, called the war the most single-digit influence in the country. Every day that an end to the war be said, he said, jeopardizes the nation's future.
Cooper, however, said that with the proviso, "we all are doing in passing a new wave of change."
Stennis, in his appeal to the Senate to strike out the amendment, said North Vietnam was hurting from U.S. bombing attacks and told his colleagues this was no time to give away any bargaining chips to Hangi.
THE AMENDMENT goes beyond others approved by the Senate in the past by conditioning withdrawal only on the release of prisoners.
He said the amendment would not be acceptable to Nixon or to any other
Scoffed the Senate was saying to the president that "we aren't going to let your administration get away."
The Senate rejected, 50 to 45, an amendment by Sen. Benson J. Allen, D-Ala., to make withdrawal from South Vietnam contingent only on the conditions set out by Nixon—an internationally supervised ceasefire and return of prisoners.
The amendment as adopted replaced one that had been included in the bill by the Governor.
Sponsored by Democrat leader Mike Mansfield, it had provided for troop withdrawal from South Vietnam by Aug. 31 without any conditions, and from all Indochina once Hanoi agreed to a cease-fire and the release of American prisoners.
ALLEN offered his amendment as a substitute for Cooper's.
Cooper, in arguing for his original, undiluted amendment, said he was concerned with the welfare of POWs and

"I WANT someone to tell me how we're going to get our prisoners back if we keep them locked up."
Let's don't keep up this pretest we're trying to end the war" with other approaches.
Cooper's amendment "is an honest one," said Sen Jacob Javick, R.N.Y., who spoke at the meeting.
"At long last," Jawits concluded, "we're at the moment of truth."
Brooke said, "The fact is you're asking the U.S. government to take on good faith
The original Manila language called for total Vietnam withdrawal unlaterally and Indochina withdrawn once a ceasefire exchange prisoners was made with Hanoi.

SAIGON (AP)--South Vietnamese paratroopers tried to storm the Quang Tri Citadel Monday but ran into withering fire and water, sending an outbreak of the battle was still in doubt.
The dawn assault by two airborne battalions numbering more than 1,000 men was aimed at two holes in the Citadel's 40-foot walls, breached two weeks ago by American jets dropping laser-guided bombs.
One officer told AP correspondent Dennis Neeld:
North Vietnamese Hold Attacking Troops Back
"The North Vietnammen are formling their firepower into the gaps in the walls and the battlements."
LATE in the day, sharp fighting also was reported 220 yards northeast of the city.
Needl reported that most of the North Vietnamese defenders of Quang Tri had retreated into the 19th century walled fortress after two weeks of allied air strikes and house-to-house fighting with paratroopers.
Other parts of the provincial capital have been largely cleared of enemy units, Neel said, except for North Vietnamese snipers hiding in the ruins.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.-Despite heavy rains which soaked oats Monday morning, activities proceeded as planned during the first full day of Resurrection City III, a poor people's city planned by the Southern Baptist Church in Mill Creek Park in Kansas City, Mo.
Although many people left the park as the rain continued, many returned by mid-morning, bringing reinforcements with them.

Most Students Believe Demo Reforms Helped
The opinion gathered from summer school students was that the reforms have produced beneficial movements within the party, and that these changes will be a primary consideration in the minds of students voting for the first time this year. According to Earl Nebring, associate professor of political science, the results of
But in the long run, Nehring said, the movements will help the party, since there is the start of a negative public attitude towards parties and politicians in the United States.
"If McGormey does well in the election, people will say the reforms are good," said Nehring. "Students think they are good since it was partly the students that helped to be elected."
Nehring said that in an immediate sense, many people feel that the reform movement will hurt the party, due to the fact that many minority groups seem to be disliked by their leaders.
The poll was conducted by the Greenwich College Research Center, New York, N.Y.
"If the party can get the cooperation between groups and find accommodation with the old party members, it should become stronger." said Nebrina.
A poll recently conducted among 1.5 million college students across the country found that the majority of students thought the reform movement at the Democratic Party was a failure.
Among Democratic students, comprising only 25 per cent of the student body, it was felt the delegate fighting was a healthy activity which prevented the party from being run by a small caucus. The reforms helped to return the party to the people, according to the poll.
Many of the students who were in favor of the reforms stated that the reforms could mean a lost election. But the general feeling was that even a lost election along the lines of those just voted would not be good.
According to Earl Nehring, an professor of political science, the results of the infighting will be determined in the long run, perhaps after the fall election.
ON OTHER fronts in South Vietnam, government forces recaptured a second district town in Binh Dinh Province, on the central coast, of Vietnam. They were joined south of Da Nang.
A 10,000-man South Vietnamese task force has been committed to the recapture of northern Dinh Binh Province, which fell to North Vietnamese troops in late April and early May. The district town of Bong Lap lies to the south, was recaptured Saturday.
Several sympathetic outsiders wandered through the park during the day bringing moral support, services and supplies. Others camping in the park left for work but returned for the evening meal and the night's programs.
Ella Tolbert, corresponding secretary for the SCLC and a participant in the city, said the only problem they had encountered was people allowing their group discussions. She said the problem better after a talk with their parents.
There was also a problem with keeping the area clean, because there were no waste containers, but the Health Dept, promised to supply some.
Robert said she was pleased with the attitude of the campers and the response of

Monday's schedule included an opening session on the purification of water, a City, group sessions held by Crusis, the Health Department, Human Rescue, the Drug Abuse Center in Kansas City and several other community groups. A group discussion and evaluation of the programs was held before the evening meal, and at 8 p.m., they assembled to meet reviewed black history.
She said, "We had several minor accidentes, though, some cars slowing down because the brakes were broken."
The highlight of the week's activities will be an address by the Rev. Ralph D. Abernathy, national director of the SCLC, at 2 p.m. Saturday.
