PARIS (UPI)—French President Georges Pompidou is prepared for "total frankness" in his talks with President Nixon on all world problems, including France's controversial Middle East policy, officials said Sunday.
Pompidou on Monday begins a nine-day state visit to the United States. He will be the third French chief of state to make such a visit in the long history of relations between France and the United States.
Former President Charles de Gaulle made two visits—in 1945
as chief of the provisional government after World War II when he conferred with President Harry S. Truman, and again in 1960 when he was hosted by the late President Dwight E. Eisenhower.
Vincent Aurio, first president of the Fourth Republic, was also the guest of Truman in 1951.
De Gaulle also made two short trips to the United States—for the funeral of President John F. Kennedy in 1963 and before he resigned last April for the funeral of Eisenhower.
On the eve of Pompidou's departure, French officials said Pompidou anticipated "conversations of total frankness" on Tuesday and Thursday with Nixon.
It has been agreed between Paris and Washington that no communiques will be issued after their meeting, sources said.
Major problems will include France's relations with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), international monetary policy and relations between the United States and the growing economic unity of the six-nation European Common Market.
Elk eludes satellite for two days running
JACKSON, Wyo. (UPI) — Monique the elk is going to get another shot of the same medicine unless she stops playing hide and seek with Nimbus III, a nosy satellite whose job it is to keep tabs on her.
The orbiting satellite for the second straight day was unable to spot the 500-pound cow elk Saturday as she romped in the rugged terrain of northwestern Wyoming.
James Lynch, a spokesman for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA),
The satellite is supposed to track Monique as part of an experimental project aimed at preserving the habitat of wildlife.
Yablonskis' slaying case investigated
CLEVELAND (UPI)—"Bread and butter" witnesses are to be called when a federal grand jury investigating the murders of rebel United Mine Workers Union (UMW) official Joseph A. "Jock" Yablonski, his wife and daughter, resumes hearing testimony Tuesday.
Justice Department officials said of the witnesses, "They'll be bread and butter witnesses, no one whose name would make news by itself." They also said they believed they were nearing their goal of finding out who paid to have the murders committed.
In three weeks of testimony, a total of 28 witnesses were called. During last week's sessions, the only three witnesses were officials of UMW District 19, which Yablonsyi said received $3.7 million in union funds illegally from the UMW leadership.
In the first two weeks of grand jury sessions, four Clevelanders with Applachian backgrounds were indicted on federal conspiracy charges in connection with the killings.
The charge was made after Yablonski lost his bid for the presidency of the union to incumbent W. A. "Tony" Boyle last December.

said no one was certain why the satellite wasn't able to pick up information from a 23-pound equipment-packed collar Monique has wrapped around her neck.
"She may have been kneeling down in the herd or perhaps she went up into the trees on the hills," Lynch explained.
Ground crews at the site near the Grand Teton mountains said they have been able to track Monique with a ground receiver. It is just Nimbus III that has not been successful.
"We know where she is—she's right out here in the herd on the national elk refuge," said refuge manager Don Redfearn. "I'm sure there's no question that the radio signal is going out all right."
If she doesn't, Lynch said crews would move into the area, shoot another tranquilizer into her as they did last Thursday and pop on a new bright red collar to replace the one she has been wearing.
Lynch said they would give Monique a few more days to get in touch with Nimbus III.
The National Board of the American Civil Liberties Union is endorsing lowering the voting age to 18 for state and national elections. The endorsement is the result of a recommendation from an ACLU conference in June, 1968 and has been under consideration since that time.
But the major topic, officials believe here, will be France's Middle East policy which the French believe is misunderstood and unfairly criticized in the United States.
Lower voting age backed by Union
James Seaver, KU professor of history and chairman of the local ACLU board, said the measure will probably meet some resistance but it has the approval of the KU ACLU chapter.
Seaver said if the measure passes it could have significant effects on local elections. He cited the bond issues for the municipal swimming pool and the proposed new Lawrence public library as examples where student votes could be important.
Seaver said, students can help lower the voting age by lobbying, mass petition and peaceful demonstrations.
Pompidou is prepared for possible anti-French demonstrations from Jewish groups during his 6,000-mile tour from Washington to Cape Kennedy, San Francisco, Chicago and New York.
"President Nixon is in favor of lowering the voting age so I think the proposal has a chance," Seav-
He is expected to comment fully on France's reasons for selling Libya 110 Mirage planes and other aspects of its mediterranean policy during his address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday.

WASHINGTON (UPI)—Secretary Robert H. Finch of Health, Education and Welfare warned the Senate Sunday he would recommend a second Presidential veto of a controversial HEW money bill unless its spending levels are cut further.

In a letter to Sen. Warren G. Magnuson, D-Wash., chairman of the Senate appropriations subcommittee which must consider the measure, Finch also urged deletion of House provisions barring HEW from requiring "busing" as part of school desegregation plans, and legalizing "freedom of choice" school plans.
However, Finch's letter threatened a veto only on the bill's money provisions.
The possibility of a veto was not mentioned in connection with the southern-sponsored school amendments.
"The quickest and simplest way to solve our problem," Finch said, would be for the Senate to insert a provision permitting President Nixon to hold back some of the spending.
As passed by the House Thursday, the measure totals $19.4 billion.$886 million over a $16.8 billion compromise which the President suggested after vetoing the original measure during a nationwide television appearance last month.
The modern birthstone for the month of April is the diamond.
"Taken in its present form, I would have no choice but to recommend to the President that he veto" the bill, Finch told Magnuson.
