CIA gets hearing today
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The embarrassing entanglement of the CIA with the National Student Association, already bearing the condemnation of two top administration officials, gets a private airing today before a select Senate panel.
Late Monday, Vice-President Hubert H. Humphrey voicemail over the clandestine CIA financing of the student group, adding his name to the growing list of prominent persons in and outside the government who have
deplored the CIA-NSA arrangement.
The Central Intelligence Agency's payments supporting the NSA over the last 15 years represented "one of the saddest times our government has had in terms of public policy," Humphrey said in an address to students at Stanford University.
He added that the spy agency needs "closer supervision" and that its projects should be "confined to its intelligence gathering activities."
Grand jury probes civil rights deaths
JACKSON, Miss. — (UPI)—A biracial grand jury, working in strictest secrecy, proceeds today with a new investigation of the 1964 slaying of three civil rights workers near Philadelphia, Miss.
The 23-member panel, composed of 18 whites and five Negroes, was sworn in Monday by U.S. District Judge Harold Cox.
Cox gave no hint of the cases to be considered in his brief charge to the jury, but there was no doubt the Philadelphia killing would be among the first matters to be taken up.
Sheriff Lawrence Rainey of Neshoba County, a key figure in the case, was seen entering the building with a bulky record book under his arm.
Sukarno to face trial in Jakarta
Humphrey's comment followed similar criticism in a statement issued by HEW Secretary John W. Gardner, who is also a member of a panel President Johnson appointed last week to "review" such CIA liaisons.
Richard Helms, another member of the review panel and the director of the CIA, faced questioning in closed session today from members of a Senate Armed Services subcommittee which oversees CIA activities.
One member of the subcommittee. Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield, has already stated the opinion the CIA link to the collegiate group smacked of "big brotherism" and should be fully investigated by the group.
In addition to the Philadelphia case, reliable sources said the jury also would be asked to return new indictments in the firebomb death of Negro leader Vernon Dahmer near Hattiesburg last year. Dahmer was killed when nightriders tossed firebombs into his home Jan. 10, 1936.
Humphrey did not say when he became aware of the CIA-NSA relationship, which was publicly exposed last week and quickly followed by the NSA's breaking off the tie. NSA officials had said Humphrey's aid was enlisted last summer in the search for private funds to take the place of the CIA subsidies, but they said it was not clear if the vice-president actually was told about the relationship or already knew.
SINGAPORE —(UPI)— Radio Jakarta announced today that President Sukarno will be brought to trial for moral and economic "deviations" committed while in power.
The broadcast heard in Singapore quoted Indonesian Foreign Minister Adam Malik as saying the figurehead president would stand trial in the interest of "truth and justice."
Anti-Communist politicians and student leaders have been agitating for the Indonesian president's ouster in the abortive 1955 Communist coup and brought the nation close to economic disaster.
Malik's disclosure was the first such official statement on the subject.
The Jakarta broadcast said Malik told a news conference Monday that Sukarno "would be brought to trial in line with the demand of the new order," a reference to the military regime of General Suharto.
capital today said that Sukarno and Suharto were deadlocked in talks designed to bring an official
Tuition bills go to Senate
Two bills were placed in the Kansas Senate hopper yesterday that could affect tuition at Kansas colleges and universities.
Dispatches from the Indonesian
Sen. Ted Sarr Jr., D-Pittsburg, introduced one bill that would allow students attending state colleges and universities to be charged the resident rate for undergraduate courses if they live within 30 miles of the school. This bill would affect cases such as nearby Missouri students who are now paying out-of-state tuition fees at Kansas State College of Pittsburg.
Castro's kitchen plans 42 flavors
The other bill, also introduced by Saar, would forbid the raising of fees and tuition for four years following the enrollment of a student.
MIAMI — (UPI) Cuban Premier Fidel Castro boasted Monday night that Communist Cuba soon would be able to produce more ice cream flavors than the United States.
Appearing on television with the arm-waving excitement of a vendor, Castro said in Havana that his upsurging ice cream industry has achieved a variety of 26 flavors.
The "eventual goal" of 42 flavors would put U.S. ice cream producers to shame, he said.
