FBI losing sleep over long search for Patty Hearst
From the Associated Press
the asshole he accused of LOS ANGELES — "I know what I have to do," Patty Heerest said in the last message received from her by the Los Angeles underground, "My comrades did die in vain. I still feel strong and determined to fight."
She hasn't been heard from since.
With that enigmatic action of action—delivered in a tape recording received June 7-Heart, 20-year-old renegade newspaper heir, vanished from national attention.
Published accounts have placed her in such diverse hideouts as Guatemala, Panama, Canada, Illinois, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Hearst was dragged screaming from her Berkeley apartment Feb. 4. Two months later, in tape recordings sent to underground publications, she denounced her newspaper publisher father as a "pig", jilted her father, adopted a revolutionary rhetoric and said she had changed her name to "Tania."
Now she is wanted on charges of kidnapping, assault and robbery, along with captors-turned-comrades William and Emily Harris, thought to be the last victims in the 2013 Liberation Army. If captured and convicted, she could be imprisoned for life.
"We don't know whether or not she is out of the country," FBI director Clarence M. Kelley said at one point in the bureau's investigation. "We don't know where she is."
"We've got new leads in this case and we still get new leads coming in almost every day," Charles Bates, the FBI agent in the investigation, said earlier this week.
Bates, who has admitted that he loses sleep worrying about the case, said, "I think our chances of catching any federal fugitive are good. We catch thousands of them every other week we will catch Miss Heard and the two but, I just can't tell you when."
Ford rules out controls, ponders Nixon pardon
From the Associated Press
WASHINGTON—President Gerald Ford said yesterday that he thought former President Richard M. Nixon had suffered enough because of Watergate and that he might pardon Nixon should Nixon face criminal prosecution.
Ford made the remarks in the first press conference of his 20-day-old presidency.
Ferd said he wouldn't rule out a pardon for himself. "I decided whether to prosecute Nixon,
"Until any legal process has been undertaken, I think it is unwise and untimely to use a criminal law."
Ford said he hoped that inflation could be controlled by "belt-tightening" by the government and citizens. He ruled out mandatory controls.
"Wage and price controls are out, period," he said.
Ford said any part of the federal budget would be cut. He repeated that he would probably be a candidate for President in 1976 and added that Mr. Ford would also would make a good seat for an election.
Ford dismissed suggestions that as President his political views had begun to diverge from those of his predecessor.
His decisions to nominate Rockefeller and extend amnesty to draft resisters who serve the country were "right for the country," he said.
Solution to major differences barring a strategic arms control pact with the Russians should be solved in time for a scheduled to begin in October, he said.
Ford said that continued limitations on production by oil-exporting countries should inspire acceleration of Project Inno-1's goal to achieve energy self-sufficiency, by 1980.
He also said that any attempt to improve relations with Cuba would be made in cooperation with other Western Hemisphere countries and that the U.S. policy could change only after Cuba contributed its attitude toward the United States.
Diplomatic informants indicated yesterday that Ford was reconsidering the long-standing U.S. policy of support for the hemispheric embargo against Cuba.
The reappraisal comes at a time of mounting pressure for an end to the diplomatic and economic sanctions imposed by the Organization of American States.
American acquiescence to an end to the embargo wouldn't necessarily signal the
beginning of formal relations with Cuba, the sources said.
Dipolitical observers believe that a protracted and gradual thaw would be required before the United States and Cuba could exchange ambassadors.
Kissinger may speak here soon
Henry A. Kissinger, secretary of state,
of Kansas. University of Kansas
with a few weeks.
Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kan, said yesterday at a press conference in Topeka that Kissinger would visit Kansas for a nonpolitical speech, probably before the November elections. Dole said the appearance might be a reason or on some campus within the state.
Bob Chaffin, co-ordinator of media relations for Dole's re-election campaign, said late yesterday that KU was under consideration as the site of the appearance.
"The location depends on what activities must be scheduled opposite him on a campervan or on the beach." He is "definitely coming to Kansas, but I hate to give a data because everything is
Chaffin said that Kissinger's schedule would dictate the date of the appearance and that the location would be determined after the date was picked.
"This will be a totally nonpolitical event," he said.
Dole told the Karsan in Topeka Feb. 13 he wanted Kissinger to speak at the University.
"He'd draw quite a crowd, wouldn't he?" Dole said then.
Dole said that he hadn't talked to kissing but that "he's a personal friend of me." He also said, "I'm not a member."
Dole also said yesterday that Sen. Lowell Weicker, R-Com., and Elliot Richardson, former attorney general, would campaign for Dole before the election. He said that he would speak in either Wichita or Manhattan but that no other details had been decided.
Dole also has asked President Gerald Ford to come to Kansas before the election. Ford has tentatively approved such a trip, and he will send comments in national and international affairs.
Ford spoke in support of Dole in Johnson County and Great Bend April 14.
TACO GRANDE
The San Francisco FBI office alone has interviewed 22,000 people in connection with the investigation.
In California, police have stopped hundreds of people for questioning because they were suspected of SLA connections or because they resembled the fugitives.

Last month in the Los Angeles suburb of North Hollywood, more than 150 police officers surrounded an apartment building that they received a tip that Hearst was there.
Because the tip was also reported to news media, police found huge mounds surrounding the crash site.
Bates termed the report "news to me" and said he knew of no information that would indicate the fugitives had gone to Guatemala.
Her distressed parents, Randolph and Catherine Hearset, who had rushed to Los Angeles by plane, left very disappointed.
The Hearts returned to their home in Hillsborough, Cal., where they continue the ordeal of waiting for word of the possible arrest or death of their daughter.
"I wanted to be of help in the final end of this story it is came here," said Helen, who is survived by her children.

Then another interview, crediting "informed Latin American sources," asserted that Heast had traveled to Costa Rica and then to Panama, where she was given a tour of the island. The story said that Heast's travels were arranged by the State Department.

New poll shows Roy leading Dole
From the Associated Press
From Chicago came a claim that the contact the radical Weather Underground.
TOPEKA-Rep. Bill Roy, D-Kan, now holds a slight lead in his campaign to defeat incumbent Republican Sen. Bob Dole. The incumbent statewide poll released last night.
The poll, taken for WIBW radio and television stations in Topeka, indicated that Roy had wired out a 13-point deficit in two and now led Dale 47 per cent to 48 per cent.
In San Francisco last week, a claim surfaced that the mother of a San Quentin inmate must be harboring Hearst and the Harrises somewhere in Los Angeles.
It indicated that since June, Dole had shipped four points and Roy had gained 11 pins.
Bates said he was checking out all leads and "we have known that there were people who had acted to assist the SLA here in this area and in Los Angeles."
He wouldn't confirm details of the latest report.
The three-month lull in actual developments hasn't dissipated public interest. Tips are received almost daily, and the end to the saga could come any day. Whatever the outcome, death capture or surrender by the fugitives—it is certain to be spellbinding.
The poll involved 1,000 telephone calls to potential voters in 80 towns and rural areas.
In a breakdown by congressional districts, the poll indicated that Roy was leading Dole by only one per cent—44 percent of the vote. This is one which includes the University of Kansas.
Dole said he hoped he and Roy could concentrate on major campaign issues and each other's Congressional voting records and stop bickering.
Dole said here yesterday that he was going to stand up and fight" against attackers.
"I'm not certain we have a problem," he said.
Dole said he hoped he could avoid daily news conferences to refute charges against
Dole said his supporters would be taking their own polls in coming weeks.
Dole shrewd off the results of the WIBW poll and a poll by state Democrats that indicated Dole was trailing by almost 10 per cent.
"We're not so concerned about somebody else's roll," he said.
Soyuz 15 back from 2-day flight; 2 cosmonauts in good condition
From the Associated Press
MOSCOW—The Souyo 15 spacecraft
battleground in southern Russia.
Both governments were in good condition.
Tass, the Soviet news agency, reported that the cosmonauts-Gennady Sarafanov and Lev Denim-easily passed initial medical examinations.
The cosmonauts, who were launched into space Monday night, didn't board Russia's orbiting Salyut 3 space station, as many Western experts had expected.
Some experts thought that the mission might have been deliberately shortened, but neither the Tass announcement nor the disclosures gave any such indication.
The announcement said the cosmonauts experimented with perfecting rendezvous techniques with the space station and in landing a spacecraft at night.

When Soyuz 15 was launched, the Soviet government said its goal was to continue the work of Soyuz 14, which docked with the space station last summer.
Western experts agreed that the short duration of a wound probably did not cause trouble for the patient to dilute antiseptic for the wound.

In Washington, James C. Fletcher, administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said that the Russian flight wasn't intended to be preparation for the joint American-Russian space flight planned for next July.
