WASHINGTON (141 - Members

Labor Day recess, still must grap-

Johnson's major recomendations

education bill, a 4.5 per cent fed-

legislation and a housing bill in-

SAIGON (P)-Saigon's militant
Buddhists added their voices yes-
terday to a. growing chorus of
complaints about South Vietnam's
elections.
Buddhist leaders complained
that last Sunday's Presidential
and Senate elections were rigged
in favor of President-elect Nguyen
Van Thieu and aired other grie-
vances they have with the gov-
ernment. But there was none of
the anti-Americanism that had
surfaced earlier in the day at a
Saigon students' meeting.
About 500 high school and Sai-
gon University students met yes-
terday morning at the student
union headquarters. "The elections
were for the Americans, not for
the Vietnamese," one student
speaker said.
Johnson Letter
Inma statement issued after the
meeting, the group, claiming to
represent 30,000 students, de-
nounced "before national and in-
ternational opinion that the re-
sults of the election have been pre-
arranged" and that they were
"arranged by a foreign hand."

About the same time, the offi-
cial Vietnam Press published a
letter to Thieu from President
Johnson who hailed the election
as a milestone to a free and peace-
ful Vietnam.'
Three defeated presidential can-
didates, including the man who
ran second in the race, Truong
Dinh Dzu, attended the students
meeting.
Dzu told the students: "Nation-
al sovereignty has been seriously
trampled on. Not only do we have
to work for peace but also for na-
tional sovereignty."
Peace Platform
Dzu, who ran on a "peace" plat-
form, has been leading a front of
six defeated candidates who have
lodged complaints of election fraud
with the provisional National As-
senmbly.
At the Buddhist meeting in the
An Quang pagoda, home of the
militant monk Thich Tri Quang,
Buddhist leaders told about 500
followers the election was faked.
They also complained about the
new government-signed Buddhist

charter, which sets up a rival non-
militant sect as the official Bud-
dhist church of South Vietnam.
