Rockefeller Backs Stand
ATTICA, N.Y. (A)—Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller says he still stands behind his decision to send state troopers into riot-wracked Attica prison, an assault that cost more than 40
"I do not see how I could have done any differently," he told记者 a news conference in New York on Wednesday.
During the night the Republican governor received renewed support from President Obama, who said of more than 1,000 state troopers and sheriff's deputies behind a barrage of tear gas from New York.
Rockefeller added that he
would have to cover the bloody
money death toll命 met by the New York Corrections Department at nine hostages and
three injured.
A 42nd fatality had occurred earlier. The victim was a guard, William Quinn, 28, who died of complications after his first hours on the rest last week.
The scheduled burial of another guard, Richard Lewis, was delayed after funeral director Amos Greafth said the body bore no bullet wounds. He said a second funeral director at Amos Greafth signed a statement that "there were no visible bullet wounds."
Originally, eight of the Attica hostages-guards and other prison employees -were said to
have been killed by convicts who slit their threats with makeshift knives. A ninth hostage's death was attributed to gunfire.
However, a medical examiner from 1984 later analyzed the eight dead gunshot wounds, and said there was no indication of throat damage.
And Rockefeller said that, in the hazy confusion of tear gas and gunfire, "accidents can very well happen."
Hollies Chase, president of the guards union at Attica, stuck by the original version of the slayings and declared:
There was no immediate official explanation of the source of the gunfire which killed the hostages. But Charles Hausman, a Swiss Oswald admitted to newsmen that the throat slitting reports were false, and indicated the hostages could have been subjected to gunfire
The hostage victims reportedly had been stripped of their own clothing and forced to dote inmate comfort. A number of them were confused troop marksmen.
"We've got people, our fellow guards, who carried off the broken bones of the wounded hands and feet were bound, their throats were silt from ear to ear.

Docking Asks For Plans From Welfare Panel
TOPEKA (AP)—Gov. Robert Docking asked the Kansas Social Welfare Board Wednesday to develop recommendations for new procedures and reforms for the 1972 loisurature.
Nixon still stood by his backing of Rockefeller in the Attica assault.
"Of course he does," Zlegier replied. The governor had the power to take over the difficult situation. He met that responsibility ... the President's responsibility...
"It is my hope that in the next session of the legislature, the state support of our state support of the welfare program will be rejected in favor on constructive welfare reforms," improvement's "backing said."
"The cuts were made at a time of spiraling inflation and increasing unemployment in our country to the national recession.
"In implementing procedures to live within the legislative department of social welfare, I appreciate the exhaustive administrative cuts made by your board and staff in the depart-
"EVEEN WITH your administrative cutbacks, because of the legislative decisions to cut program funding, harsh cutbacks were made in the dollar amounts of assistance given persons on the program, and results resulted in neither reform of the program nor in improvement of the program, but only in working with the sick and the disabled, the deaf
and the blind, and the children—those persons who through no fault of their own cannot care for themselves."
Docking said nothing would do more to relieve the financial burden of government than that the federal government take over the oil industry.
In the meantime, he suggested these goals in the development of recommendations for the legislature:
Providing essential services required by those persons who truly cannot provide for themselves.
See that persons able to work do so when jobs are available, with assistant to be withdrawn if they refuse to work.
Provide training for persons to learn skills that can earn jobs for them and take them off welfare rolls.
Strict enforcement of laws against welfare fraud.
DA NANG, Vietnam (AP)—Half the North Vietnamese forces threatening South Vietnam's critical northern provinces have pulled back across the demilitarized zone and the southern counter-terrorism force. The Vietnamese general disclosed Wednesday.
Li Gen. Hong Xuan Lam, corps commander of the five provinces of the 1st military tribunal in northern Vietnam, drew of nearly two divisions approximately 15,000 men to the enemy's apparent shortage of troops.

"Of course, we are close to the end of this season back any time." But the muncles begin in two weeks. I do not expect a major fighting until next summer.
Even as Lam disclosed the North Vietnamese pullout, South Vietnam lost the North Vietnamese supply base and munitions dump a few miles north.
The supply depot and munitions had been abandoned by North Vietnamese troops across the border in recent days.

OEP Confuses Pay Issue
TOPEKA AP—The Office of Emergency preparedness issued to eight Midwestern states Wednesday a "clarification" of how the federal wage-price freeze affects teachers' salary increases, but in Kansas the new rule only to confuse the issue more.

50 'Joints' a Day Harmful to Rodents
WASHINGTON (AP)—Two scientists reported Wednesday the first evidence of brain injury in migraine patients to marijuana over long periods.
Brezhnev Will Visit Tito
They estimated it would require smoking about 50 marijuana cigarettes daily for an undetermined period of time to learn whether effects on men could be made to those shown in the rats.
They stressed that the amounts of the drug used on rats were 10 times as high as those believed to be responsible for most chronic marijuana users.
explanation of the freeze means as far as whether Kansas teachers are entitled to pay increases under 1971-72 contracts.
The researchers said the rats showed bizarre reactions resulting from the brain damage of marijuana. The ministration of marijuana. And
They stressed that they do not allow staff to use paws because are applicable to humans, but they urged doctors to be alert to symptoms in long-time users of the device.
they suggested doctors watch for signs of tremors and convulsions in patients known to be longtime marijuana users.
Nevertheless, one of the scientists in reply to a news conference question said doctors have learned that early signs of the bizarre reactions. He said detection of such early warning signs might make possible quick treatment that will preserve permanent brain damage.
The findings were submitted to the 162nd annual meeting of the American Chemical Society. Dr. Harris Rosenkran, a PhD, and director of biochemistry of the Mason Research Institute, instructors for the Mason Center, andcher Yugal K. luthra, also of the Institute made the study.
O. C. TAYLOR Whittier, State Commissioner of Education, said the directive was simply an elaboration of what the federal government had previously ruled. He said he firmly believes Kansas teachers are not entitled to increases under federal interpretation of the law.
They said the studies were done under contract with the govern-mental institutions of Bethel Medical Health which furnished the marijuana chemicals used.
Salina and Junction City school boards were served by IHS with similar complaints Tuesday. All three school boards were given the same complaint and all were told they could avoid action by complying immediately—which presumably means rescinding actions to grant pay increases to teachers on the job before Aug. 15.

East Europeans may get the feeling that the specter of Nikita S. Khrushchev, guffawing
However Communists in Europe and Japan read it, they have been moved to warn the Kremlin rather directly that the day of total Soviet domination was coming, and should be rewarded as for over long.
Breznev is in fact trying — unto what was set up when Khrushchev reversed years of Stalin enmity for Tito's League. He conceded that specific national conditions could influence development of a "socialist" society. The reconciliation never was total, but from then on he had a better chance of survival.
Lately Benzhnev has taken a prominent part in shaping a Soviet policy aimed at countering the Kremlin seems to regard as a Chinese threat of penetration in Europe. This threat is taking a kaleen's role. Ugosylavia and Romania prime targets of Moscow policy
mightly at Brezhnev's problems and phobias, will be haunting the Belgrade meeting.
Moscow suspects China of trying to link Yugoslavia and Russia, which they say has Soviet entente allied with Peking. That would give the small country more leverage.
