Union taking strike vote
WASHINGTON—The head of the Brotherhood of Railway and Airline was preparing for a nationwide railroad strike at 12:01 a.m. Friday.
Brvoe president L. D.ennis said his $260,000 union members were overweight and favor of a doctor's aid, and if we must strike to achieve our goal, he said, "We'll probably go on strike."
A team could block a strike for at least 60 days by declaring an emergency and appointing a fact-finding board to investigate the dispute. Federal mediators have been meeting with union and management officials an effort to break the deadlock but there have been no reports of progress.
A union spokesman said the membership was voting 85 to 90 per cent to strike. Final results were expected by Thursday.
Rebels attack Phnom Penh
Rebel forces attacking Phnom Penh battled into the city's western and northwestern outskirts Monday and cut the highway linking the capital and its airport after hand-to-hand fighting, field reports said.
In South Vietnam, three huge explosions ripped through a bomb storage area at Bien Hois air base 15 miles north of Saigon.
Saigon command spokesman said Tuesday that Viet Cong snipers had managed to slip by guards and through security fences at the base and place explosive charges in the bomb dump. They reported 29 South Vietnamese airwounded and a number of bombs destroyed.
Change of venue sought
However, Jerry Paul, an attorney for Little, said he wouldn't be satisfied unless the trial was held in an urban area.
WASHINGTON, N.C.—The prosecution agreed Monday that the trial of Joanne Little, a black woman accused of murdering a white jailer she said was trying to rape her, should be held in another county because of "deliberate and excessive publicity."
William Griffin, Beaufort County district attorney, said in a brief filed at the beginning of a pretrial hearing that public had difficulty it to prove that he was innocent.
Liquor bill signed into law
TOPEKA-Gov. Robert F. Bennett signed into law Monday a bill that would allow the university's liquor tools as only nonprofessional Class A clubs has been allowed to do without.
The reason for the bill was the Internal Revenue Service's change in policy on issuing tax-exempt certificates to Class A private clubs of employees.
Under the new law, the clubs that previously operated under Class A statutes can now obtain Class B licenses and continue to operate liquor pools as they already were doing. All other Class B clubs will now be able to operate liquor pools too.
Legislators send 40 bills to conference committees
Also placed in conference to try to resolve differences in Senate and House versions by the time the legislature closed its regular day session last Saturday night were bills to:
TOPEKA (AP)-Forty bills have been consigned to conference委员会 during the Kansas Legislature's current 10-day recess for attempts to make compromises and make them acceptable by next Tuesday's three-day extension of the 1975 session.
Among the 40 bills in conference committees, 10 are appropriations bills that would authorize spending for fiscal year 2015. The other six are projected total state budget of $1.48 billion.
—Amend the Kansas Act against Discrimination, making it ‘more reasonable’ in the minds of supporters and opponents in the Rights Commission in the view of fees.
- Authorizing the Kansas Board of Regents to grant scholarships or provide loans to medical students who agree to serve in rural areas of the state
- —Provide equal legal status for husbands and wives.
- Create a state landlord-tenant act to act on rights, duties, and obligations of both the landlord and tenant.
Also certain to go into conference is an omnibus pay bill that passed the senate Saturday night and went back to the House for concurrence in amendments. House managers would reject should retest the senate version, sending that controversial measure into conference.
WASHINGTON (AP)—Former Treasury Secretary John B. Connally denied emphatically and categorically Monday that he would get to get an increase in milk price supports.
Connally said he didn't need any convincing to urge increases in the milk price source.
Connally's chief accuser, Jake Jacobson,
has testified that the three-time Texas
governor asked him for the money in return
in getting the price support likened
in 1971.
Connally is charged with taking two $5,000 payoffs in return for his advocating the milk price increase in a meeting with then President Richard M. Nixon in 1971.
The defense opened its case, after being denied a directed verdict of acquittal, by presenting a stellar cast of character in the rev. Billy Graham and Lady Bird Johnson.
Mrs. Johnson said, "John is a man of integrity and a man of honor and is so known in our state." She has known Connally for 37 years.
Graham said, "His reputation for honesty and integrity is unassailable in my judgment."
The pay bill has sparked criticism because of increases for legislators of 50 per cent in non-session monthly salary, 43 per cent in commission pay and 22 per cent in expense allowances.
The lawmakers gave themselves a 250 percent daily pay raise a year ago—increasing it from $10 a day to $5. Now, they want to increase the daily expense allowance also want the daily expense allowance raised from $3 to $4—the maximum they can accept without having to report any on federal income tax returns—and their annual pension in session increased from $200 to $300.
The Student Senate Culture Committee reversed Monday night an earlier recommendation to cut line item funds allocated to the KU Concert Series.
According to Chuck Fischer, committee chairman, StudEx refused to accept the committee's first recommendation because it was not a vulnerable to cuts. StudEx didn't think this
Concert series request reinstated
The committee had proposed to cut the amount designated for the Concert Series from each student's activity fee from 75 cents to 71 cents. Most of the funds gained would have gone to the International Club, Fischer said.
would be a good precedent to set, Fischer sai.
StudEx also told the committee to be more specific in its allocations instead of using the same numbers.
The committee also recommended that the Senate approve on allocation of $144 from this year's contingency fund to the Black Arts Alliance for a program April 26.
He said the International Club had still been tentatively allocated $1,197.
SUA Forums will sponsor a lecture by Clifford Irving this week. The lecture has been tentatively scheduled for 2 p.m. in the Dudduff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Fischer said the Culture Committee also hoped to get a share of the $8,500 that the Finance and Auditing Committee had released for additional funding.
Clifford Irving to give lecture
The topic of Irving's lecture is "Crime and Punishment." Irving, who recently wrote a book about himself as the author of a book about Howard Hughes, will answer questions.
