Nixon Talks of Successes,
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Nixon told the nation Wednesday he scored "breakthroughs toward peace in a changing world" by arranging his Peking and Moscow summits and by rebuilding allied alliances.
The chief executive also injected himself into the swirling debate over alternatives to his Vietnam policy by cautioning presidential candidates in a nationwide radio broadcast to avoid statements which he believed would prolong the war until after the election."
He indicated in his 94,000-word foreign policy report to Congress that agreement with the Soviet Union is near on a pact to curb the superpower nuclear missile race.
BUT IN THE REPORT Nixon said progress in search for "a stable structure of world peace" was tempered by several sharp disappointments—including continued Vietnam fighting, Mideast tensions and the India-Pakistan War.
He solicited election-year public support for his policies, telling his radio audience that "this breakthrough year has made us realize the peace a reality in the general ahead."
The double-barreled assessment of world affairs came less than two weeks before Nixon is to arrive in China and three months before his visit to Moscow.
"We do not expect instant solutions to deep-seated differences, but the visit is a brief encounter."
THE THIRD ANNUAL Foreign Policy Report to Congress stressed he is seeking a solution in Vietnam, but mad about not mentioning it. He also said, however, confront them in his radio address.
Nixon said he was not complaining about the vigorous criticism and does not 'question the patriotism or the sincerity of his disagree with my policies to brush peace.
But he said "Only the President can negotiate an end to the war."
In a statement which appeared aimed at democratic presidential candidates Election officials said.
Nixon added:
"A candidate should make any criticism he believes would contribute to bringing an honorable peace. But I would hope that he can explain his statements carefully to be sure that nothing he says might give the enemy an incentive to prolong the war."
NEXON BEGAN his radio address by citing a series of "breakthrough toward peace" which he said resulted from his reshaped foreign policies.
"These are great changes," he said.
"They have brought the world closer to a
stable peace. They did not happen by accident."
He made the same claim in his report to Congress, saying "We know where we are going. We are moving with history, and moving history ourselves."
Although the report was largely optimistic in tone, it also cited "several sharp disappointments." Chief among them was failure to negotiate a settlement of the Vietnam war. Nixon also listed the Pakistan war, inability to score breakthrough in the Middle East, and the expulsion of Nationalist China from the
KU Women to Talk With Health Officials
Members of various women's groups at the University of Kansas will talk with the president of a meeting of the University Senate Executive Committee (SenEx) in the office of the chancellor. Expanded health services on women on campus will be the major tonic.
Friday's meeting is a result of sessions held Feb. 4 and 5, during which SenEx offered to help get women and health officials together for discussions. The group will demonstrate on Feb. 6 by the February Sisters, a 100 member women's group.
Final arrangements for the talks were made at noon Wednesday during a regularly scheduled SenEx meeting. Backlog committee work, brought about the weekend demonstrations, was also handled by SenEx.
Representing the University Friday will be Dr. Raymond Schweigel, director of the University Health Service, William M. Ballour, vice chancellor for student

other state universities and possibly the state colleges at the hearing for Rep. Bert Chaney's (D-Hutchinson) bill which, if passed, would permit state programs at the three state universities.
Each educator appearing before the committee would be allowed five minutes to testify. Scannell said. The officials reported in brief information concerning different areas.
Scannell said it was his understanding that the chief purpose of the bill was to generate useful discussion between the state schools and the legislature, and that the bill should not be viewed as a threat to university teacher education programs.
affairs, and Emily Taylor, ear of women.
The meeting will be a regular SenEx session, except that non-members will be present.
Scannell he anticipated six issues. They included a need to describe the nature of the teacher education program, the importance of library resources in liberal arts programs relating to teacher education, the importance of teacher training centers, cooperative programs developed over the past two years and the functions and possible duplication of graduate programs in education.
William M. Lucas, associate dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Design and chairman of SenEx, said SenEx can periodically set up meetings between campus groups which are not officially recognized in order to get needed dialogue started. Friday's meeting is an example of SenEx performing this function, he said.

Citing a lack of research and unanswered questions concerning a child center provider, Mrs. Sisters, Sisters' Finance and Auditing Committee of the Student Senate decided Wednesday night to recommend that the senate allocate no immediate funds for the center.
Dave Dillon, Hutchinson junior and chairman of the committee, said the Sisters were unable to care center, but the two representatives of the Sisters who appeared before the committee were unable to answer many important questions concerning the

THE DOCUMENT recited an agenda of unfinished business, including broad U. S.-Soviet accommodation, a better relationship with China, and effective crisis management.
Nixon gave an indication that a major break is near in curbing the arms race when, in discussing his Moscow summit, he mentioned "an accord on an initial deal between Russia and the United States." The report didn't elaborate, but presidential adviser Henry A. Kissinger said a first-stage agreement—probably limiting arbulistic missiles and offensive missiles—could be completed either at or before the Moscow meeting.
"WE ARE ENGAGED in the essential job of redefining our role in the world," the President added. That new role, he said, "must be based on a solid consensus of American public understanding and support."
In the same vein, Kissinger told newsmen in a briefing he hoped the report would serve as a foundation for a serious debate about the national purposes.
Nixon said the third annual report was intended to give an insight into the administration's philosophy of foreign policy and its approaches to peace.
Of his Feb. 21-28 trip to Peking, Shanghai and Hangchow, Nixon said new U.S. strategy would "encourage the world to visit would wipe out 'a sterile and barren interlude ... between two great peoples" and would be a step toward the creation of a stable structure of world commerce.
Nixon said it could lead to cooperative ventures between our countries in the future. The President reiterated, however, that the United States would maintain its diplomatic ties and defense commitment to Taiwan.
"We just don't have enough details to merit our making a commitment," Dillon said.
CROSBY CROSBY, Topkeen senior, said after talking to officials in Topeka he thought that the Sisters were moving too fast, and that the Sisters did not understand all the costs and problems related to the project.
Crosby cited several difficulties which would result once the project was underway. He said regulations would be required by health officials and the city marshal and a certified cook and physician for children and workers would be needed.
Crosby also said that while several possible sites for the center had been investigated, the Sisters had failed to find a definite location.
'I NEE a very honest desire to create a
vulnerable environment with a very honest
lack of information.' Croshy says.
He said that the committee's recommendation was not meant to be testified against.
Sisters' proposal might be agreeable to the committee.
THE SISTERS decided last Friday night to seek money from the Student Senate because it was thought to be their only source of money on short notice.
The Sisters were seeking about $6,000 to fund a center until July 1, when the new fiscal year begins. By then the group hoped to arouse enough support to have faculty for the center included in the University budget for the 1972-73 fiscal year.
Dillon said that the committee was in favor of a center to serve a "permanent long-time need rather than the temporary need to pop-up measure" the sisters were seeking.
The proposal for a "cooperative child care center to provide babysitting facilities and care for infants and children of women associated with the University" was among a list of demands presented by the February Sisters to University officials last Friday night when the group occupied the East Asian Studies Building.
KU Workers' Protests Fail to Recoup Wages
TOPEKA- Workers from the University of Kansas, protesting the lack of wage increases in the last 15 months, failed Wednesday to convince the chairman of the Senate Rules and Means Committee that the increases they get now should be retractive.
Lloyd Rose, business manager of Local 1132, Laborers International Union of America, not with Halsey Stickle, Stickle, Ways and Means chairman, in an effort to persuade the senator to push in his committee for KU workers can be made retroactive.
VANICKLE told Rose that money for 5 per cent merit increases for those workers who qualified was in the budget. The increases would be effective July 1 if the appropriations bill for colleges and universities is approved by the legislature as expected.
"We've already passed the supplemental appropriation recommended by the government, and any additional government funds would require new taxes," Van Stickle said.
However, Van Sickle also told Rose it was doubtful any money could be added to make the pay raise retractive because the Board of Regents and Gov. Robert Docking had not recommended making the increases retractive.
THE WORKERS Rose represents many industry workers. Rose which many other industry workers.
because the Board of Regents budget was reduced by the 1971 legislature.
Rose also asked Van Sickle for assurances* that the workers would get training to ensure he could not guarantee they would get the increases, but said they were budgeted for, and he knew of no movement afoot to cut higher education budgets

About a dozen members of the union stationed themselves at the four ground-level entrances to the statehouse Wednesday morning and distributed a leaflet which said the union was urging the legislature "to appropriate funds for a research grant to increase classified employees at the University of Kansas campus at Lawrence."
THE LEAFLET said the union also was "requesting that the entire pay structure for classified Civil Service employees be moved to a new state and that state are competitive in the labor market."
The union members appeared at the statehouse in a much larger force and with placards on Jan. 14 and picketed for about 60 minutes, before moving second floor. It was 4 degrees below zero that morning, and the legislators had gone home for a long weekend to wind up the day's work.
Rose said Wednesday the union might return again before the end of the session.
