Thursday, April 4, 1968 THE MICHIGAN GAILY Page Five Thursday, April 4, 1968THE MICHIGAN DAILY -- nio Iv House Gets Ethics Code: Aftermath of Powell Cased WASHINGTON (R)-The House adopted a code of ethics yester- day that will require members and top employes to make limited public disclosure of sources of out- side income. The vote was 405 to 1 in favor of conduct standards recommend- ed by a bipartisan committee created after the House ref sued to seat Adam Clayton Powell as Democratic representative from New York's Harlem. Several attempts to change the code were shouted down. The code does not require Sen- ate action since it applies only to House members, officials and em- ployes. The Senate adopted its own ethics code March 22. The reports dealing with outside interests will be required of each member or employe annually starting next April. One will be available for public inspection; the other will be kept sealed un- less at least seven members of the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct votes to open it. The committee, a permanent House body, is composed of six Democrats and six Republicans. The public report will list the name of any company doing "a substantial business with the gov- ernment and from which the re- Hanoi States Desire To Start Peace Talks porting individual owns or con- trols an interest of at least $5,000. It also will list the sources of outside income in excess of $1,000 from companies doing business with the government and the sources of income in excess of $1,000 from any professional or- ganization. The sealed report, which will be kept until the reporting indi- vidual leaves Congress, will list the amount of holdings in and income from the companies named in the public report. The code requires members and employes to conduct themselves properly at all times, to adhere to the House rules, to accept no gift of "substantial value" from anyone interested in pending legislation, to accept no unrea- sonable pay or honorarium for speeches and writing for publica- tion, to keep campaign funds separate from personal funds and to use campaign funds solely for campaign purposes. Money received from testimon- ial diners or other fund-raising events will be considered cam- paign funds unless the sponsors give advance notice that the money is intended for other use. Rep. Ogden R. Reid, (R-N.Y.), one of the wealthier members tried to add an outright ban on testimonial dinners and to re- quire public disclosure of income or gifts in excess of $100. He also sought public disclosure of all debts with some exceptions and all stock transactions, real estate purchases and sales. Rep. Richard L. Ottinger, (D- N.Y.), sought more complete pub- lic disclosure of outside income. His amendment, like Reid's, lost by voice vote. Policemen Spray Mace On Children Connecticut Parents Angered, Call For Arrest of Officers WATERBURY, Conn. (P) - A group of parents seeks the arrest of two policemen who used the chemical spray Mace to break up a crowd of children surrounding a fight between two girls Tuesday. Police Supt. Joseph Guilfoile said today that the policemen "were doing their duty. As far as I'm concerned no action will be taken against the policemen." Witnesses said the two police- men used Mace, a chemical de- signed to temporarily immobilize the persons sprayed, on 12 chil- dren ranging in age from 9 to 15. Three of the youngsters were taken to St. Mary's hospital. A spokesman there said they were "looked at" and discharged. One policeman also received hospital attention and was released. "There were 150 to 200 people milling around and the policemen had to stop it," the police super- intendent said. He declined to identify the policemen involved. The two girls were on their way home from Driggs School in Waterbury's North End when their fight began. The parents held a meeting Tuesday night to plan legal ac- tion against the two policemen.

Earle G. Wheeler, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, will accompany the President to Ha- waii. Johnson reviewed this new de- velopment with his top advisers at a White House luncheon con- ference. f Enroute to this meeting the President dropped in on a gather- ing of foreign and domestic news- men who are going to tour Texas with Mrs. Johnson this week and said he was on his way to study the peace situation. Johnson said the Hanoi state- ment indicated "there might be some movement" in the search for peace. Hanoi's announcement marked a shift away from North Viet- nam's previous unwillingness to get into discussions and signified ,the possibility that talks might begin while the war is still going on. At the same time, a Commun- ist readiness to enter into discus- sions would not mean necessarily that Hanoi's peace conditions would be agreeable to the United States. The North Vietnamese state- ment showed no backdown from previous demands. It was recalled that much of the Korean war was fought while the two sides were at the conference table. A translation of the first Viet- namese language broadcast of the Hanoi regime's statement was rushed to the White House, the State Department and other key agencies yesterday morning after it was picked up by U.S. monitors. This translation differed slight- ly in wording from versions pro- duced in other capitals which also monitored the Vietnamese language broadcast, but the es- sential meaning appeared to be the same. w i ruw i rr. . - -'--- ___--- --71 GUILD HOUSE - 802 Monroe - Fri., April 5- Noon Luncheon 25c PROF.
