The former governor said his candidacy will force President Nixon to make some concessions on school integration. To become governor, Wallace must defeat at least four other candidates in the May 5 Democratic primary and any who may oppose him in November. Albert Brewer, the current governor, is expected to be Wallace's strongest opponent. When Wallace was governor from 1963-1967, he chose Brewer for lieutenant governor in the 1966 election when Lurleen Wallace's wife was elected governor. After Mrs. Wallace died in 1968, Brewer became governor. Wallace, third-party presidential candidate in 1968, insists he is running only for governor, but added there will be no future for President Nixon if he does not give the schools back to the people. "Political action offers the only hope for doing this," he added. * * * AN UNITED MINE WORKERS OFFICIAL was indicted in the slaying of UMW leader Joseph Yablonski. A federal grand jury indicted Silous Huddleston, a' Tennessee official of the union, on charges of conspiracy. Huddleston was accused of interfering with the rights of a union member by force or violence, obstruction of justice and conspiring to interfere with the rights of a union member by force or violence. Huddleston's daughter Annette Lucy Gilly is already under in- dictment in the Yablonski slaying. Her husband, Paul Eugene Gilly of Cleveland, also is charged in connection with the same offense. Yablonski, his wife and daughter were slain last December 31, although their bodies were not discovered until January 5. PRESIDENT NIXON won a victory in the fight over the HEW appropriations bill. The Senate Appropriations Committee voted 15 to 7 to permit the President to withhold two per cent of the funds in a new $19.4 billion bill. WASHINGTON (U) - Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird said yesterday American airpower but no ground forces are being used in Laos to protect the U.S. position -in Vietnam. In testimony before the House Defense Appropriations subcommittee, Laird stressed "There has been no b a s i c change of U.S. policy in Laos over the past three years." "The President has made clear that the use of American airpower in Laos is to protect U.S. forces in Vietnam," Laird told newsmen. "We have no military forces engaged in ground Informal Atmosphere, Good Food combat in Laos." E I Program Information 662-6264 HELD OVER 2nd BIG WEEK!

Wallace announces he will seek the Democratic nomina- tion for the governorship of Alabama on May 5. Four other candi- xdates willopshi Last month the President vetoed an HEW bill because he con- sidered it inflationary. HEW Secretary Robert Finch said the newT bill passed by the House is inflationary and he would ask the Presi- R EMA IN IN JAIL: dent to veto it again. Sen. Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash.) promised an effort will be " made to delete the two per cent withholding authority when the bill Jlt l e IeS tr i s comes up for: debate, probably next Monday. Even if the Senate accepts the withholding authority, it must1 still be accepted by the House. Earlier the House gave Nixon the with- holding authority, but this was deleted when the bill reached the of B lack P an th ers floor. While making no flat denial that U.S. airpower is being used to support Laotian allies, both Laird and Chairman George H. Mahon (D-Tex.) tied the airpower use in Laos directly to the U.S. effort in Vietnam. "The bombing in Laos by U.S. planes has been calculated to make our position more secure," Mahon said. "Its purpose is to defeat efforts by the enemy to bring ad- ditional supplies into the South." Laird called the use of airpow- er against North Vietnam's major supply route, the Ho Chi Minh Trail through Laos, vital to the U.S. effort in Vietnam. Bombing of enemy supplies on the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos by agreement with the Laotian government began in 1964 under former President Lyndon B. John- son's administration. Laird told Mahon's subcommit- tee that North Vietnam has step- ped up movement of massive sup- plies into South Vietnam for what U.S. military officials expect to be hard but scattered enemy "tar- get of opportunity" assaults in the South. Laird and Mahon talked to newsmen briefly after Laird's ap- pearance before a closed session of the appropriations subcommittee. Mahon told newsmen his sub- committee also will study alleged atrocities in Vietnam, including some reported in the past several days, but he said too much has been made of the allegations. "The subject of atrocities h a s been overdone," Mahon said. At the State Department, press officer Carl Bartch told n e w s- men the department considers U.S. actions in Laos are in line with the national commitments resolution approved by the Senate last year and a restriction written into the defense appropriations act. lit Laos activity WASHINGTON (IP) - With an angry attack against the Ameri- can r o1e in Laos, a bipartisan group of senators has demanded the administration disclose how heavily the United States is in- volved in the war-torn Asian na- tion. "The facts of our involvement have been concealed from the American people," Te nnessee Democrat Albert Gore declared during floor debate Wednesday. The charge was also supported by Sen. Charles H. Percy (R-Ill.) A n o t h e r Republican, Sen. Charles Mathias Jr. of Maryland; said "Laos has become an arena for the repetition of the mistakes of our' Vietnamese involvement. "I believe that the American people - and the Congress - will not ultimately accept a withdraw- al policy from Vietnam that en- tails merely a changing of uni- forms and titles and re-engage- ment in Laos." The Maryland senator pointed to "news reports from usually re- liable publications" indicating hundreds of former Green Berets military advisers "swarming over the country in numbers propor- tionately larger than the Kennedy administration commitment of advisers" in Vietnam. T h e debate, conducted before only a handful of senators, came against a backdrop of a strong North Vietnamese force that has moved quickly and wtih great suc- cess against t h e Royal Laotian army in spite of heavy bombings by U.S. B52s.

Courtroom disruption in theI Panther 13 case paralleled to a1 marked degree the disturbances William Milliken has been chal- lenged to "stand up against the polluters" by backing what one Democratic senator calls "the, boldest, most significant attack on pollution anywhere in the nation." The "attack" cited by Sen. San- der Levin of Berkley involves a legislative proposal that would give any individual citizen the right to take industrial or govern- mental polluters to court. Levin, an undeclared candidate for his party's nomination to bat- tle Milliken in the fall election, made his comments at a public hearing on the bill sponsored by Rep. T. J. Anderson (D-South- gate). Levin and Sen. Gilbert Bursley (R-Ann Arbor) ,introduced an identical bill yesterday in the Sen- ate, saying they hope to push the question to the top of the Legis- lature's priority list for the cur- rent session Milliken says industries and government must stop pollution through "increased dedication," Levin quoted. "But there is no time for Sunday school lectures anymore," the senator added. "The threat of citizen lawsuits will be more effective than any of the governor's courteous pleas. We must learn, and the courts must be told, that you can't put a dollar value on everything in this so- ciety," Levin said. "Michigan's precious lakes must take precedence over profit and loss sheets." Levin accused the governor of making proposals that "only pre- tend to put citizens in the van- guard against this desperate battle against poison in our environ- ment. "The new bill has real guts," Levin declared. The time has come, he added, "for governmenb leaders to stop capitulating to any part of society which is polluting our environment." The senator noted that several organizations - including ENACT from the University of Michigan, the Michigan Jaycees, the United Auto Workers union and several conservation c u b s -- have an- nounced their support of the An- derson proposal. At the same time, a group of Detroit area legislators called for a ban on virtuallyall "hard" pes- ticides in agricultural fertilizers./ NOW PLAYI NG NATIONAL GENERAL.
