Earlier yesterday a rally involving between 15,000 and 20,000 students, laborers and farmers was held in downtown Manila. After the five-hour program, reportedly led by a group called' Nationalist Youths, 2,000 demonstrators marched to the embassy. Hurling stones, sticks and fire bombs, they entered the embassy compound and shattered windows in the main office building before U.S. Marine guards dispersed them. Police did not come to the embassy until about an hour after the disturbance started. U.S. Ambassador Henry Byroade, who was absent from the com- pound at the time of the attack, assailed the lack of police protection. He called Filipino President Ferdinan E. Marcos to request police aid after hearing about the disorder. No one inside the embassy was injured by the attack, U.S. B-52 BOMBERS flew in support of Laotian ground forces for the first time. Informed sources in Saigon said that for 36 hours ending early yesterday all B-52 strikes in South Vietnam were suspended and about 60 planes were sent against both North Vietnamese targets in the Plain of Jars area and enemy supply bases in eastern Laos. U.S. bombers have previously attacked the Ho Chi Minh trail in eastern Laos. Attacks on Laotian airfields caused the B-52 attacks. At Xieng Khouang airfield the North Vietnamese attacked for the second time in six days. In the Laotian capital, Vientiane, this was in- terpreted as heralding the start of the dry season offensive. Long Cheng airfield was attacked for the first time since it became a supply base for troops on the Plain of Jars. Sources said 36 North Vietnamese were killed at Long Cheng and government casualties were light. WEST GERMAN CHANCELLOR WILLY BRANDT took a step towards easing tensions with East Germany. Brandt accepted an invitation from East German Premier Willy Stoph to meet with him in East Berlin. The decision was made after consultations with the three Western allies, the United States, Britain and France. If held, the meeting would be the first between the chiefs of the two German governments since the country was divided at the end of World War II. PRESIDENT NIXON'S welfare revision and extension will probably be approved soon by the House Ways and Means com- mittee. Since Congress reconvened in January, the committee has con- sidered the plan in closed session. Sources close to the panel said the original unfavorable reaction to the Nixon plan has been replaced by a mixture of attitudes among members that will probably add up to a favorable majority. A vote is expected within two weeks. The biggest innovation in the administration proposal is exten- sion of the welfare system to provide a minimum income for an estimated 15 million of the "working poor"-families whose bread- winners have either regular or intermittent jobs but do not earn enough to bring their famllies above the poverty level. * * * BIG-FOUR EFFORTS to establish a Mideast cease-fire may soon collapse. Official word reaching Western capitals from Moscow indicates the Russians will oppose the American proposal for a cease-fire be- cause they feel it equates what Moscow considers Israeli aggression with Arab defensive measures.f For several months diplomats from the United States, Britain, France and Russia have met to ease tensions in the Middle East. U.S. Ambassador Charles W. Yost proposed the cease-fire last week. Sources said the British foreign office feels a state of undeclared war} virtually is under way but Britain has already publicly backed the cease-fire proposal. * * * OPTIMISTIC TESTIMONY on Vietnamese pacification met both encouragement and skepticism from a Senate committee. John P. Vann, head of the pacification program in the Mekong Delta, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee the program has begun to meet its objectives. Vann said the pacification program has gained popular support since 1968 by providing better security in the countryside. This has forced the enemy to rely on North Vietnamese troops rather than on South Vietnamese recruits, Vann said. Committee chairman J. William Fulbright (D-Ark) said reports of progress were encouraging but past events made him skeptical. But Sen. Clifford P. Case (R-NJ) said he was impressed by Vann's5 testimony. aide page three Thursday, February 19, 1970 Ann Arbor, Michigan Page Three Nixon asks expanded ARM tPresident presents first State of World address to Congress WASHINGTON (M - President Nixon yesterday told Con- gress in his first State of the World message that Russia's growing force of intercontinental nuclear missiles has created "a serious threat to our retaliatory capability." Nixon presented his proposed expansion of the Safeguard ballistic missile defense program as the best immediate re- sponse to the Soviet build-up. He also expressed hope that eventually he could nego- 3 tiate a limitation or reduction of nuclear missiles with Russia. By the end of this year, Nixon reported, Russia will have an estimated 1,590 missiles capable of reaching the American *~mainland against an estimated 1,710 for the United States. Five years ago, in mid-1965, he said, Russia had only 331 such missiles to 1,398 for the Unitedy Mftri~titan aai Feb. 20th MILES Wharton honored Michigan State University President Clifton Wharton receives a resolution from the Legislature yesterday commending his con- tributions to education.

"We must insure," he declared, "that all potential aggressors see unacceptable risks ih contemplat- ing a nuclear attack, or nuclear blackmail, or acts which could es- calate to a strategic nuclear war, such as a Soviet conventional at- tack on Europe." Nixon a l s o announced during his message the formation of a high-level Vietnam special studies group headed by Dr. Henry Kiss- inger, the President's special as- sistant on national security af- fairs, to make a systematic analy- sis of U.S. activities in Vietnam. He said the United States re- mains ready to be "flexible and generous" in negotiating the Viet- nam peace with the Communists. Although a breakthrough in the talks could "come with little warning," Nixon said there Is. no sign of one now. The President said the United States will continue to work for peace in the Middle East, but will need help from other nations. He promised to "maintain care- ful watch on the balance of mili- tary forces and to provide arms to friendly states as the n e e d arises." Although the United States will move from "dominance to part- nership," in relations with West- ern Europe, the President s a i d "we can no more disengage from Europe than from Alaska."

(P) - About 200 black students, saying there is a "meaningless dialogue" be- tween the students and the Am- herst College administration, seiz- ed five campus buildings yester- day and demanded the right to "determine our own programs, policies and direction." The programs alluded to in the demand concerned what the black students feltwas an administra- tion promise for a black studies department with a full time black faculty. The possibility of such a de- partment was discussed during a one-day moratorium on the cam- pus last spring. Two black studies courses have been instituted. Prosser Gifford. dean of t h e faculty, issued a statement, saying that the college was ready to meet with spokesmen for the black stu- dents. A subsequent statement, issued by a group of sympathizing white students, said the takeover makes necessary "a meaningful response, not just from the administration, but from students and faculty as well. This event clearly demon- strates that this community has not yet given sufficient attention to theconcerns of black students." Classes continued as scheduled however, when a proposed student strike in support of the blacks failed to gain momentum. Campus police briefly closed off the campus to outside students, but left their posts as morning classes began. The students occupied the Rob- ert Frost Library, the Science Center, Converse Hall, the admin- istration building, the black cul- tural center and the school finan- cial office building. Democrats table vote Approve, Stenrnis school bl WASHINGTON () -- The Sen- ate voted yesterday to require equal enforcement of school de- segregation. throughout the land, giving the Deep South a major civil rights victory. In the climax to a week of of- ten bitter debate, the Senate ap- proved 56 to 36 a proposal spon- sored by S e n. John C. Stennis (D-Miss.) that opponents charged will halt the march to fully.de- segregated schools. It would require uniform deseg- regation action in the North and South alike. The vote followed two attenpts at Republican compromise and 'a new communication from the White House that both' sides, claimed as support. Rejected in the late hours, 48 to 46, was a proposed substitute by Sen. Hugh Scott (R-Pa.) which Southerners said would leave vir- tually u n t o u c h e d widespread neighborhood segregation In the North. The defeat of t h e substitute came after the White House: had sent word it favored the Scott proposal over Stennis' language. The vote marked a mayor vic- tory for the Southerners in their drive to blunt the push now on in their region to end the last vestiges of legal dual school sys- tems. It apparently meant that the Senate would adopt the Stennis amendment as a rider to a fed- eral aid to education bill. The Stennis amendment seeks to require that the government m o v e as vigorously against facto neighborhood segregation in the North as it does against de jure legal segregation in- the South. Southerners had made it clear they hoped the Stennis amend- ment would confront Northern parents with the same type of pressure for cross-city busing to end segregation which has been ordered in some Southern school districts. The result, they predicted, would be a slowing down' of the school integration drive.n The Scott substitute also called for a uniform national policy on school desegregation.
