SEN. J. W. FULBRIGHT (D-Ark.) said he thinks it is ob-
vious a relationship exists in Laos between the Agency for In-
ternational Development and the Central Intelligence Agency.
The chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations committee made
this statement after Robert H. Nooster, an AID official testified be-
fore his committee.
Fulbright said he based his charge on published reports and
Nooster's failure to deny them.
Nooster agreed to show the committee a confidential memo on
the relationship of the CIA and AID in Laos.

annihilate the Black Panthers.
Since the Chicago police killed Fred Hampton and Mark Clark,

initiated all encounters with the Panthers.

PRESIDENT NIXON announced a $30-million increase in
programs dealing with drug problems.
In the 1971 fiscal year that begins July 1, the administration
plans to increase funding for such programs from $105.8 million to
$135.5 million. In terms of the over-all budget, the increases were
small.
Funds for marijuana research will increase from $2.6 to $3.3
million. Dr. Stanley F. Yolles, director of the National Health In-
stitute of Mental Health, said federal researchers have learned mari-
juana hurts some people but have not decided if it is more dangerous
than alcohol,
TEN STATE REPRESENTATIVES introduced a resolution
calling for licensing newsmen and editors.
Rep. James Del Rio (D-Detroit) sponsored the resolution which
noted that other trades and professions are regulated and licensed
and said journalists should be no different.
The mass media are having an increasing effect on the lives of
citizens, according to the resolution, but people working in these fields
are not fully cognizant of their public duties or the accuracy of their
reporting.
Recently Del Rio has harshly criticized the press and broad-
casters. On Tuesday he called editors and reporters "faceless hatchet
men."

goes on,
Acting president
to 'phase out'
police on campus
From Wire Ser ce Reports
BUFFALO - A student-faculty
strike at the State University of
New York at Buffalo entered its
second week yesterday with the
announcement by Acting President
Peter F. Regan that the 400 riot-
garbed police who have been on
campus since Sunday would' be
"phased out."
The force of city, campus, and
sheriffs police were requested on
campus by Regan to act in a "pre-
ventive fashion" to protect the
university community against van-
dalism. It was the physical pres-
ence of police that provoked the
Feb. 25 battle on campus which
culminated in 17 arrests, property
vandalism, and the call for a
strike.
The battle began after students
confronted. police following iso-
lated acts of vandalism which en-
sued after a peaceful demonstra-
tion. The demonstration was call-
ed by the Black Student Union to
protest athletic department policy
towards minority athletes.
At a university convocation
March 2 over 4,000 students over-
whelmingly approved removal of
ROTC from campus, open admis-
sions, removal of Dept. of Defense
projects, and removal of Regan.
A temporary restraining order
obtained by Regan became perma-
nent last Thursday when none of
the ten defendants named dis-
puted it.
Picket lines, building occupa-
tions, and mass meeting have oc-
curred all week, in violation of the
injunction. Regan suspended 20
students for violations of the in-
junction and other infractions of
university regulations dating back
to October.
The student strike committee
yesterday opened a liberation
school, 'which includes in the cur-
riculum classes on womens libera-
tion, the labor movement, and the
politics of education.
"Meanwhile, a peace patrol of
700 students and faculty members
are on the campus, wearing white
armbands and urging restraint
According to their leaders the pa-
trol intends to interpose itself
bodily between the police and stu-
dents in the event of trouble.
Also, the Faculty Senate met
yesterday to consider the issues
of the presence of police on cam-
pus and the possible resignation
of Regan. A resolution calling for
a vote of no confidence in Regan
was defeated, however.
