Nixon Continues War On Narcotics Imports
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Nixon reported initial victories Monday in the war on illegal drugs. He said he will cut U.S. aid to any country whose leaders contribute to America's narcotics problem.
Nixon's remarks clashed with Sen. George McGovenn's allegation Sunday that Nixon's anti-narcotics campaign has failed. The Democratic candidate said the president had criticized Southeast Asian allies who, McGovenn said, are involved in the narcotics trade.
Nixon did not mention the Democratic presidential nominee by name in addressing U.S. diplomats assembled from college for world for a three-day drug conference.
Nixon particularly cited France, Paraguay, Laos, Thailand and Turkey as examples of what he called "fine initial progress" in cooperating with U.S. offices on the issue.
AND HE told the U.S. narcotics control officers from American embassies in 55 countries "to convey this personal message from me:
"Any government whose leaders participate in or protect the activities of those who contribute to our drug problem should know that the President of the United States is required by statute to suspend all military assistance to such a regime.
"I shall not hesitate to comply fully and promptly with that statute."
U.S. Warships Add TV Cameras
SAIGON (AP)—For the first time in the Indochina war, the United States is employing its biggest computerized gunships with television cameras to protect Saigon against anticipated enemy attacks in the weeks preceding the U.S. presidential election, U.S. military sources disclosed Monday night.
The four-engine gunships, armed with 40 mm and 35 mm M1A2 cannons, are supported by two 15 mm Gepard cannons.

HANOI - a motorcade of 1950-model Russian Volga seda rushing through the darkened streets of Hanoi, a hurried walk through a dark courtyard of the headquarters of the Peoples army, soldiers in pith helmets standing quietly by.
Up a flight of steep wooden steps past a crush of television photographers, and then, almost alone in a simply furnished dusty room.
It was journey's end for two determined American women who started out a week ago from Dunedin, Fla., and San Diego, Calif., on a trip halfway around the world to personally bring home their released prisoner of war Navy pilots.
MINNIE LEE Gartley was first through the door Sunday, patting at her graying hair, her eyes alive with expectation. Past two soldiers at the door, a cameraman, and there he was—her tall blond son, Navy L. Markham L. Gartley.
"Better looking than I remembered him after five years apart," she said.
Gartley blinked. Then he felt his mother's strong arms around his neck.
Keyed up for a week, he said later: "It
was supposed, not quite as traumatic,
as I expected."
Slim, pretty Ola Charles had already dashed by and embraced her husband, Navy L. Norris Charles. They had not seen each other for 10 months, and Mrs. Charles would not reveal what he whispered in her ear in this first moment.
Standing nearby was Air Force Maj. Edward Elias who up to the previous evening had thought either his wife or father would make the trip. Cora Weiss from New York who had helped to arrange his release walked up to him.
THE OFFICIAL reception was ready to begin and it was only a special concession by military authorities that had allowed them to meet first briefly with their loved ones.
"Welcome back," she smiled at him.
Mars. Gartley and Mrs. Charles stood quietly behind their men as each stepped forward to the microphone and made brief statements, then pandemonium occurred as Mrs. Charles shoved through the press and television crews to cuddle her husband, and Mrs. Gartley found her son at the edge of the room.
Then it was pictures, the released men looking more like the stereotype of Madison Avenue advertising men in their neat newly made gray suits, than prisoners of war enjoying their first moments of freedom.
Back to the motorcade, past a small group of Vietnamese civilians who cheered at the gate. Then a banquet in Hoa Binh Hotel and a long talk into the right with members of American peace group who came over to escort their home, and a few journalists.
But not for the Charles, who excused themselves early. Mrs. Charles had a tape to play to her husband from their 3-year-old daughter and so they walked hand in hand up the twisting stairway of the old hotel to the "Honeymoon Suite."
military region. When enemy movement is spotted, they open fire.
The sources said the gunships already had been in action against small groups of Viet Cong trying to infiltrate the capital and had been effective so far.
One source said that the gunships had been called from bases in Thailand to patrol the Saigon corridor and that U.S. officials were expecting the enemy might use rocket ships into Saigon and carry out sniper attacks in the capital to "grab headlines."
The use of the giant gunships underscores the seriousness with which U.S. officials take the threat to Saigon, and their determination to preclude attacks that could embarrass President Nixon in his bid for re-election in November.
Senior U.S. Air Force officials also indicated that if Nixon is re-elected without a negotiated settlement having been rejected, the North Vietnamese arm would likely intensify.
They said there were military complexes in Hanoi that could be wiped out by BS2 heavy bombers in one day. These bombs would have to be tactical, fighter-bombers, they added.
U. S. tactical fighter-bombers carried over heavy raids across North Vietnam Sunday, launching more than 330 strikes. At the same time Hanoi was holding a ceremony for the release of three American pilots who had been captured,
one more than four years ago. The POWs are scheduled to return to the United States later this week, one of them accompanied by his wife and another by his mother. The relatives were invited to Hanoi to escort their loved ones home.
In Cambodia, 65 Khmer soldiers were killed and 266 wounded in 24 hours of a fierce battle for the east bank of the Mekong River about 40 miles southeast of Phnom Penh, the Cambodian high command announced.
One senior Air Force official confirmed that he had ordered American bombers to steer clear of Hanoi during the presence of the Americans there.
South Vietnamese marines raised their flag over the Quang Tri Citadel Saturday, symbolizing recapture of the province from the North Vietnamese for 4½ months.
The closest ties to Hanoi reported by the U.S. Command during Sunday's strikes were 42 miles north and northeast, and the next 30 miles connects with China and a storage depot.
The U.S. Command announced the loss of three more planes over North Vietnam and said four of the six crewmen were missing. The latest losses raised to 98 the number of American jets lost over North Vietnam in April, when a bombing last April 6, the command said.

The four faculty representatives on the Search Committee to select a new chancellor will be elected by the Faculty Council, Richard Von Ende, acting executive secretary, said Monday afternoon.
Three of the faculty representatives will be from the Lawrence campus and one will be from the University of Kansas Medical Center, Von Ende said. The faculty will be nominated by the Faculty Senate and then elected by the Faculty Council.
A letter has been mailed to all faculty members stating the procedure for nominating a faculty member for the Search Committee. These applications are to be submitted by 5 p.m. Sept. 26 in B232 Hall, or by 10 a.m. Sept. 26 will meet Sept. 28 to elect the three Medical Center representative and the one Medical Center representative.
VON ENDE said that prior to the formal balloting at the Sept. 28 Faculty Council meeting, nominations would be taken from the floor for members of the Search Committee. There will be necessary for candidates nominated from the floor, but the candidate will have to

affirm his interest in running for the Search Committee.
Monday's press conference was called after a miscalculation by the Kansas Board of Regents in their Saturday meeting at Hays. They had designated two persons in nonexistent positions as members of the Search Committee.
In a recommendation from Board of Regents Chairman Jess Stewart, Wamego, he noted that the Committee would have been the president and vice president of the Faculty Council and two other faculty members, one from the Lawrence campus and one from the University.
NEITHER president nor vice president of the Faculty Council exists, but there is a presiding officer of the Faculty Council, and also an associate professor of political science.
Ronald Calgaard, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is considered "president of the faculty" since he is SenEx chairman.
However, Raymond Nichols, acting chancellor, said day afternoon that he had conferred with Stewart about the nonexisting concerns concerning the nonexisting positions.
The other members of the twelve-member Search Committee will be the president and vice president of the Student Body and two students, and the president
and vice president of the Alumun Association and two KU alumni, one from the Lawrence campus and one from the Medical Center.
TWO KU alumni will be named within a week or two to the campus Advisory Committee, William Hagman, president of Alumni Association, said Monday.
The alumni will be selected by the Executive Committee of the KU Alumni Association, which is comprised of Hagman, Pittsburg; Jordan L. Haines, executive vice president, Wichita, and the past president of the association.
Hagman said the KU Alumni Association Board requested at a Sept. 9 meeting that the Executive Committee select the representatives.
Any member of the association, including students and faculty, will be required to obtain a license.
Hagman said he spoke Wednesday morning with Dick Wintermont, executive secretary of the KU Alumni Association, and said a meeting of the Executive Council was scheduled at Lawrence or Kansas City. A date for the meeting has not been set. Hagman said
Hagman and Haines were designated by regents' justices to be 'other representatives of R alma'.

Uganda Forces Report Recapture of 3 Cities
Bv The Associated Press
A military spokesman said Ugandan warplanes also destroyed an enemy base in the Nile.
Uganda's armed forces claimed Monday that they recaptured three towns and pushed back an invasion force from Tanzania. President idi Dhiu said the invaders were a mixture of 1,500 Tanzanian troops and Ugandan guerrillas aided by "British and Israeli mercenaries."
Tanzania stuck to its denial that its own troops were involved. Reports reaching London and other capitals said Amin's government apparently was fighting an army mutiny in the southwestern part of Tanzania, where exiles based in neighboring Tanzania.
RADIO UGANDA reported one of three captured guerrillas brought before Amin said the Tanzanian government was armed exiled members of Obote's Laniigi tribes, its arbors, the Acholi, at camps near the Tanzanian towns of Bukoba and Tabora.
Amin told African diplomats in Kampalz, the Uganda capital, that 200 injured were fighting near Lake Victoria's western shore. He said the Ugandans involved were supporters of former President Museveni who overthrew in a January 1971 military coup.
The radio said the guerrilla—identified as a former Ugandan army captain named Mukherjee—had been killed.

Odium to power.
Obitte said the assumption was that Obote would reverse Amin's decision to expel 50,000 to 60,000 Asians with British citizenship early November, the broadcast said.
Radio Uganda reported that Amin had informed the government of Libya that Britain was backing the invasion in hopes of overthrowing him. Britain denied the charge and protested the detention of some British subjects.
Travelers arriving in London told newmen they witnessed scenes of panic at the airport.
THE UGANDAN foreign minister,

The airlift brought 188 adults and 5 children to Britain.
Some of the Asians who reached Britain on the first airlift said they had been stopped and stripped of jewelry by armed troops on their way to Entubbe airport.
Amin's order to expel the Asians, who operated many of the business firms in Uganda, stirred controversy in Britain. Many Britons expressed fear that the inflex of nonwhites to the British Isles could bring racial problems.
SOME WESTERN correspondents have been detained by Ugandan security forces. Associated Press correspondent Andrew Bates and the British correspondent were also held. Ten British correspondents were also held.
Monkey Shortage Throws Wrench into Research
By MARY LIND Kansan Staff Writer
A Michigan State University psychologist claims that a growing shortage of nonhuman primates, such as monkeys and gorillas, is a result of environmental stress and human disease, which use these animals for experimental purposes.
This shortage has had little effect on the University of Kansas Medical Center because experimenters there have no nonhuman primates in their work.
Murray Wardall, director of veterinary research, said Friday that it was a potential problem.
Wardall said increasing human populations in the areas of the world where these monkeys live may be a reason for the decrease in their numbers. With the increase in population, appropriate land has been domesticated and primates' natural habitat has been destroyed.
ANOTHER possible reason for the decrease in monkeys according to Wardall, is the opposition by various species of mice to the use of dogs for research.
"Sometimes it's cheaper to buy a monkey than a dog. Primates are very important to research because they are just a notch below the human primate. If researchers continue to use monkeys in experiments where they could use them, the supply may run out," he said.
Monkeys are being used at the Medical Center for research in
clinical pharmacology, pathology ear work, viruses, hepatitis and facial sores.
The monkeys used in research are in two major categories: old-world monkeys, from Asia and Africa, and new-world monkeys, from South America. The older monkeys ("a little touchy" getting new-world monkeys from South America because of shipping problems and "political considerations"). He said there was little difference between: old-world monkeys for research purposes.
THE MEDICAL Center now has approximately 70 primates, according to Wardall. About 10 are old-world monkeys. Wardall said purchasing and shipping costs for an eight-to-ten-pound monkey were $85-
Wardall said a few monkeys had been raised at the Medical Center. This is a lengthy and expensive process, he said.
He said it usually took a year for a monkey, fresh from the jungle, to learn how to be able to be able to reproduce. Although la-rised monkeys usually are in better health than wild monkeys, it is necessary to import them, Wardall said.
He said one of their suppliers from Massachusetts had purchased an island on which he planned to breed monkeys and let them run wild for a few years in an attempt to alleviate pressure before it becomes critical.
"Monkeys are going to be expensive," Wardall said.
