By The Associated Press
SAIGON - The leader of a
newly-formed "democratic opposi-
tion front" to the Thieu-Ky gov-
ernment was convicted yesterday
on charges of writing a bad check
and transferring money abroad
more than three years ago.
Truong Dinh Dzu, who placed
second to the Thieu-Ky ticket in
the recent election, contended
that the charges were false and
Romney Visit
To N.Y. Slumg
NEW YORK ()-In his unde-
clared pursuit of the Republican
presidential . nomination, G o v.
George Romney heard gripes of
New York Negroes yesterday, was
needled by Democrats from home
and was accused of dodging a big
issue.
A member of an antipoverty
project in a Negro neighborhood
of Brooklyn contended the Michi-
gan governor had left vague
whether he would support poverty
programs.
At one point during a busy day,
Romney found himself back to the
wall, surrounded by newsmen and
residents of the neighborhood, and
caught in the middle of a loud
argument.over whether he or Sen.
Robert F. Kennedy D-NY). was
the man to take complaints to.
Democrats Confront Governor
Earlier in the day, as Romney
was setting out from his hotel for
a round of inspections of slum
rehabilitation and poverty pro-
grams in New York, he was con-
fronted by four Democrats from
back home.
They handed Romney a letter
urging him to break off his cur-
rent coast-to-coast trip and to re-
turn home "to address yourself to
the urgent problems confronting
the people of Michigan."
The four Democrats were Cole-
man A. Young a state senator;
Marily J. Kelly a meirnber of the
Michigan Board of Education;
Dale Kildee a state representative
and Patti Knox vice chairman of
the Democratic State Central
Committee of Michigan.
They requested in their letter
that Romney return home to ex-
pand the agenda of an upcoming
special session of the Michigan
Legislature to include the follow-
ing matters:
"1) The needs of our children
and the financial needs of our
schools;
"2) The right of every person
in Michigan regardless of race,
color, creed, religion or national
origin, to purchase a home any-
where in Michigan'; and
"3) The rehabilitation of De-
troit and other Michigan cities."

krrested
that he would appeal the convic-
tion.
Dzu had announced Thursday
the formation of a civilian coali-
tion party composed of six of the
civilian candidates for the presi-
dency. The six .polled a total of
200,000 more votes than the vic-
torious Thieu-Ky ticket, which
polled' 35 per cent of the vote.
Since the Sept. 3 election, Dzu,
who campaigned on charges of
governmental corruption and a
promise to seek peace, has accused
the government with rigging the
election.
Dzu, who was represented at the
trial by a lawyer, has 9 days in
which to file an "opposition" mo-
tion which would require a new
trial in the same court with him
present. If convicted again, he
could bring the case to the court
of appeals.
Dzu was sentenced to three
months on a charge of writing a
bad check for one million piasters
-$8,474-in 1962. He said yester-
day the check bounced because
the late President Ngo Dinh Diem
froze his bank account but that
Dzu's friends made the check
good.
A second charge, on which the
court sentenced him to six months
in prison, accused Dzu of illegally
transferring $11,500 to an account
in the Bank of America in San
Francisco.
Dzu said the money was not
transferred out of Vietnam but
was put in the San Francisco
bank by American friends to pay
for the education of two of his
children. One is studying at the
University of California at Los
Angeles and the other at Stanford
University.

Wilson, qualified sources said,

Therefore, he argues, it would be
dangerous for this country to do
anything that might precipitate
