Death penalty laws stand
WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court yesterday declined to reconsider its decision upholding the capital punishment laws of Florida, Georgia and Texas.
Executions have been held up pending the court's decision on whether to reconsider.
Thirty-four states had death penalty laws on the books at the time.
The court upheld the laws on grounds that they provided juries and judges with adequate guidelines to determine whether to impose the death penalty in indictments.
The justices let stand a 4-3 decision of the Kansas Supreme Court upholding a law that required agencies immune from such suits. They said the high court didn't have jurisdiction.
The court also declined to decide whether Wichita State University may be sued damages because of the 1970 crash a charter airplane taking its football team to the airport.
Ford sians tax reform bill
WASHINGTON-President Gerald Ford yesterday signed a tax reform bill that he said was "sound, positive and long overdue."
The measure, which will affect every American taxpayer and corporation, continues current individual and business tax cuts through 1977 and makes hun-
dreds of millions of dollars in unpaid taxes.
The state shall award each holder of one to two.
In a signing ceremony in the Oval Office, Ford said the bill would close many tax loopholes and "insure that each taxpayer pays his or her share of the overall tax program."
The individual cuts total more than $18 billion.
Adviser to Carlos shot
SANEBASTIAN, Spain—Assassins in ambush along a downtown street opened fire on approaching traffic with machine guns yesterday, killing one of king Juan Carlos' advisers, his chauffeur and three bodyguards. Ten persons were wounded. It was the bloodiest attack against the Spanish regime in the 10 months since the death of longtime dictator Gen. Francisco Franco. Authorities said Basque separatists apparently were responsible.
The adviser, Juan Maria de Araluce, a member of the ultra-conservative council of the Realm, was cut down virtually on his doorstep as he was being questioned about his sexuality.
Africans against US plan
SALIBURY, Rhodesia—A black nationalist leader made it clear yesterday that black Africans don't like 'secret State' of Henry Kissinger's plan for achieving economic equality.
"The creation of a constitution now is ours, not the American's," Joshua Nkomo, leader of one of the two main factions of the African National Council, told a news report in 2013.
Nkomo, a moderate mentioned as the possible first black prime minister of Rhodesia, said black African heads of state and Rhodesian black leaders had been held under a police crackdown that one for moving this country toward black rule. He gave no details but indicated his timetable of black rule within two years may have been part of the objection.
