Czechs, Soviets
end first round
egotiations
By The Associated Press
Czechoslovak- Soviet talks ended last night after four
days of hard baigaining in the Kremlin on the future of the
country.
Several Czech sources reported that Communist party
chief Alexander Dubcek, detained by the Soviets after their
4week-old invasion, would be allowed to reinstate his liberal
government.
One informant said that in return the Soviets would be
allowed to keep troops in Czechslovakia, at least for a while.
However, a Prague broadcast monitored in Vienna said
the Moscow talks have resulted in:

slovakia within a period of
two weeks to two months-as soon

boom for Kenned
By DANIEL OKRENT
Special To The Daily
CHICAGO-Sen. Edward Kennedy's decision not to allow
his name to be placed in nomination -here may have ensured
a definite, but half-hearted, lock on the nomination for
Vice President Hubert Humphrey, as it almost assures the
death of a movemeft that gained incredible support in the
past two days.
The decision-communicated to former Ohio Gov. Mike
DiSalle through ,a member of Kennedy's Washington staff-
squelched DiSalle's notion of precipitating an honest "Draft

convention floor when the delegates gather to vote tomorrow
or Thursday night. -
