2 Kansans for, 3 Against
House OK's Delay Order For Federal Pay Raises
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Nixon's order for a $1.3-billion six-month delay in a federal pay raise was upheld by the Justice Department, 174. The Senate has not acted upon it yet.
A group of southern Democrats joined Republicans to turn back a House move that would have made the pay raise and extend of next July 1, as Nixon ordered.
It was the first congressional vote on any of the President's emergency economic proposals. Nixon said a veto of his action to pay raise wages would torpedo the whole macroeconomic crisis.
Two of the five Kansas representatives, Bill Roy, D, and Larry Winn, R, voted for the raise delay. Reps, Keith Sebelius, R, R, R, R
Sen. Frank Moss, D-Dutah, said he planned to press for a vote in the Senate Wednesday or Thursday. Either the Senate or the House could override the President's pay-rise deferral action, concurence by the other chamber.
THE SENATE VOTED 65 to a Monday to give members of the armed forces a $381-million pay raise. A $2,440-million payment is already been enacted to extend the draft.
The action is subject to a second Senate floor conference, which is likely to take a place in the summer.
IN OTHER DEVELOPMENTS on the economic front Monday:
Nixon has indirectly approved the Senate's action. But Sen. Margaret Chase Smith, R-Maine, opposed it because she said it was inflationary. S. J. Winegard, in Kentucky, D-Muss, and Adilai E. Stevenow, D-III, also voted against the extra raise.

Yippie Leader Retires From Culture of 'Hip'
NEW YORK (AP)—A 35-year-old man with short-cropped hair is urging American youth to register, to vote and to run for local political offices.
Butlest anyone suspect him of turning middle class, Hoffmann, one of the defenders who played with the Chicago Seven on trial, said with a laugh Sunday. "I'm not exactly shamn 'im."
"One, to be able to get on juries. My child fantasy is to hung the jury of the next chief justice."
He said he was urging his followers to register to vote for two reasons:
"The other reason is to vote in local elections. It's still meaningless to work for candidates on the national level. But we need a better control and control on the local level," he said.
The man is Yippie leader Abbie Hoffman.
under the wage-price freeze.
The day before, while addressing 1,500 Drew University students in Madison, he had pulled out a knife and "shot" the student. "I shouted, 'Reject the hip culture,' he explained.
While still calling for social and political revolution in the United States, Hoffman advised the assembled students that they should consider changes by working through the ballot box.
AFO-ClO President George Meany urged Congress to take active control of the economy. He told the House Banking Committee that President Nixon had proven unworthy of trust in his moves to stabilize wages and prices.

Thieu Says Election Win A Defeat for Communism
SAIGON (AP) - President Nguyen Van Thien said Monday his overwhelming majority in re-election was a defeat for Vietnam and a victory for democracy.
But charges of fraud mounted as swiftly an results were posted in Sunday's
Vice-President Nguoc Cao Ky and Duong Van Minh, who had challenged Thien but withdrew, remained silent. They were told that the man was ripped from the start of the campaign.
The State Department's first reaction, voiced by spokesman Charles W. Bray III in Washington, was that "we are pleased so many voted in Vietnam despite efforts to disrupt the election." This was a reference to enemy terrorist attacks.
The Vietnamese National Election Center gave Thien 91.5 per cent of the ballots cast. His press secretary estimated that a total of 3,726 accounts had account was given for the other 3 per cent.
THE RESULT was far in excess of the 50 per cent of votes cast that Thieu had said he would regard as a minimum "vote of confidence" to remain in office.
In a radio and television statement
described as his "trial impressions" of the
American people, Mr. Trump said:
Vietnam's nearly 7.2 million registered
citizens, 6.3 million—a record 8.7 per
year.
He said this showed the people believed the election had a "decisive significance" and they had demonstrated their determination to obey by the constitution, but failed to saddle it.
"The Communists have failed completely in their plans to destroy the election, plans which they had prepared for over one year," the statement said.
THE FINAL results were tabulated from provinces, 11 cities and from schools.
Independent observers and opponents of Thieu raised questions about the propriety of the voting and there were some charges that the balloting was rused.
One of these charges came from Ngo Cong Duc, publisher of an anti-Twee newspaper and a former National Assembly deputy. He accused the government of having distributed 3 million blank voting cards.
Senate Limits Spending in Laos
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate voted Monday to set the first congressional limit on U.S. spending in Laos, approving a ceiling at the budgeted level of $350 million after war critics dropped efforts for a sharp cut.
Sen. John C. Stennis, (D-Miss.), chairman of the Armed Services Committee, agreed to support the limit Start Symfony Moo., its sponsor narrowed its application.
The limit, placed in a $21-billion military procurement bill, applies to economic and military aid plus Central Intelligence Agency support of Laotian and Thai irregular forces trying to keep Laos from falling to North Vietnam.
It excludes all U.S. bombing activities—attacks in and around the Communist Heaven, aerial strikes on North Korea, and so on.
of Laotian forces in the Plain of Jars and in Northern Laos.
Opposition came from a handful of war opponents who considered the limit could be interpreted as an authorization for U.S. forces to attack Iraq in construction backers opposing any restrictions.
SYMINGTON PROPOSED originally a spending limit of $200 million excluding only the bombing at the Ho Chi Minh trail.
After a series of conferences, Symington agreed to raise the limit to $350 million and to omit any ban on $143 million budgeted for bombing in Northern Laos.
The amendment includes provisions requiring the Nixon administration to keep Congress informed of actual expenditures in Los Angeles on a quarterly basis and to provide written explanations of future requests for funds.
Sen. J. W. Fulbright, D-Ak, said he feared the amendment, though designed to limit spending in Laos, would be required authorization for U.S. involvement there.
Besides Fulbright, the amendment was also opposed by Sens. William Brock, R-Remn, Edward W. Brooke, R-Mass, James L. Buckley, Con-N, Y. Marlow W. Cook, R-Ky, Peter Dominick, R-Colo, M O Hatfield, R-Dore, M. Mike Mansfield, D-Mont, Margaret Chase Smith, R-Maine and Robert Taft Jr., R-JOhio
AREA SENATORS who voted Mondays on an amendment limit U.S. spending in the House, which has been approved.
Democrats for; Eagleton and Symington, Missouri; Hughes, Iowa.
Republicans for: Dole and Pearson, Kansas; Hruska, Nebraska.

Gary Jackson Studying Law, Awaiting Appeal Hearing
Gary Jackson, whose firing caused much controversy at KU, is now in his second year of law practice.
Second of a Series
The Kansas State of Regents ordered Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr. to fire Jackson. At first it was said that the gunment was purchased from a local shop, but it was not the case, but Jackson's job was not given back.
Jackson was fired from his job as assistant to the dean of men and black studies instructor after Topka police reported he had purchased a large amount of cash from the day after Rick Dowdell was killed in Lawrence.
His case is on appeal at the Court of Appeals in Denver. At this time, it is not known when it will be heard.
Jackson's attorney told him not to comment about
the coming hearing
Jackson still says that KU needs black administrators.
"I think there are plenty of student problems that need to be looked at by the administration, such as the need for more black administrators. They can also learn about the problems of black students a little better," he said.
THE BLACK STUDENT Union gathered 2,500 signatures supporting Jackson's restatement in November 1970. A rally was held Nov. 23 to support Jackson. The University of North Carolina Black Student Union announced, "By Dec. 2, I give Jackey Jackson is not reinstated, or an ample reply produced as to why he is not, then we shall take necessary actions to see that the remainder of the university share in his condition of unemployment."
Jackson said he had never been told why he was
fired.
The Dec. 2, deadline passed, but the strike didn't start until Monday, Dec. 7. Students came to their morning classes and found blacks picking and asking for support for their rally. A rally was held on Wednesday.
A large crowd attended and tried to listen as black and white student leaders tried to explain the purpose of the strike. The public address system was inadequate and most of the crowd couldn't hear

The BSU saw that the stike was not going to be successful and extended it to an economic boycott of the Kansas Union. The BSU dropped this part of the program and supported the Union in supporting programs that helped blacks.

The BSU leaders said they supported black faculty members who were to attend a emergency meeting of the Board of Regents the next Monday. The leaders said the strike was called because of unpaid leave that perpetuated by persons other than members of BSU.
Friday night a bomb blasted the east stairwell of Summerfield Hall. It injured three people and did $28,900 damage to the building. The east door is still not open. The bomber or bombers were never caught and a temporary green building near the entrance scars of fragments that ripped its metal sides.
Jackson's feeling about not commenting about his case is shared by most black student leaders. They do not want publicity. They say they will let people know that they programs by reaching them with their programs.
