Arkansas party is Jim Johnson,

1968 U.S. Senate Democratic pri-

committee, said the all-volunteer
effort is aimed "at setting up the

2 per cent of the vote."
FUTURE UNCERTAIN
Dr. Francis Sommer, newly
elected Kentucky AIP chairman,
said "it amounts to nothing more
than organizing the party and so

THE U.S. ARMY announced yesterday draft calls
would be increased by 3,000 a month from March through
July to replace 20,000 reservists and National Guards-
men scheduled for demobilization.
At the same time, the Army indicated that an easing of
fighting in the Vietnam war might bring earlier release for
the National Guardsmen and reservists. As currently planned,
however, 10,000 of them will return from active duty to civil-
ian life by the end of next year.
If the Paris peace negotiations are successful, the sch-
edule could be moved up. It is also possible that the new pres-
idential administration may decide to reduce the over-all
size of the Army, now about 1.5 million men, in the event of
a war settlement.
If that happens, it is conceivable the draft calls may not
have to be raised.
MEANWHILE, VIET CONG and North Vietnamese
mortar and rocket attacks shelled 37 South Vietnamese
towns and cities yesterday in the heaviest attack since
last month's bombing halt.
The well-coordinated operation appeared to be a re-
sponse to the Viet Cong command's orders to launch a new
wave of attacks while negotiations in Paris drag on.
Rockets rained on five provincial capitals ringed around
Saigon, killing 16 and wounding 82 South Vietnamese per-
sons. 11 more were killed when Communist troops rampaged
a hamlet 60 miles north of Saigon, burning 25 houses.

WITH EXPANDED PEACE TALKS nearly ready to
begin in Paris, the United States and North Vietnam have
agreed on all points except the shape of the negotiating
table.
The allies want two rectangular tables, with the 'U.S.
and South Vietnamese negotiators at one end, and Hanoi and
the National Liberation Front spokesmen at the other. This
is because Saigon recognizes the NLF as only part of the
North Vietnamese team.
North Vietnam wants a square table, with the NLF on
one side by itself to show its status as an independent dele-
gation.
THE PENTAGON announced yesterday 12,000 Ameri-
can troops and 96 Phantom fighter-bombers will be sent
to West Germany for military maneuvers.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization maneuvers will
be held near the Czechoslovakian border, as part of NATO's
response to the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia.
The war games will be conducted near Grafenwohr, West
Germany, and will last a few weeks before most soldiers re-
turn to the United States. Four Phantom squadrons, however,
will remain longer to complete additional training.

TWO AMERICAN DESTROYERS will be sent to pa-
trol the Black Sea in the next few days, the Navy said
yesterday.
The announcement brought immediate protest from the
Soviet newspaper Pravda, which called the planned mission a
provocative sally close the Russian shores.
Although the move is seen as an American reminder to
Moscow that the Black Sea is an international body of water
and not a Soviet .lake, the Navy described the new mission
as routine,
No American warships have entered the straits leading
into the Black Sea since last June.
DEFIANT PARISHONERS IN FLORENCE, Italy, have
called on all Italian workers to stage a protest before
Pope Paul VI when he says Christmas Eve Mass at the
Toranto steel mills
The planned protest is over the ousting of a rebel priest,
Don Mazzi, who was dismissed from his parish Thursday for
publishing a controversial catechism. The catechism showed
Christ as a leader of the poor against the upper classes
The appeal to Italian workers came in the wake of a
march in which thousands of the working-class parishoners
demanded reinstatement of their priest.

REPUBLICAN GOVERNORS meeting with Vice Pres-
ident-elect Spire Agnew yesterday demanded the federal
government share more of its power and money with the
states.
In a conference at Palm Springs, Calif., the governors
asked for more state freedom in administering federal pro-
grams. Gov. Winthrop Rockefeller of Arkansas charged that
the Johnson administration had hurt the poverty program in
bypassing experts at the state house level.
Rockefeller joined others in asking President-elect Rich-
ard Nixon for "block grants" of federal money - funds given
with few strings attached.

He was that rarity of rarities, an uncompromising
romanticist. He imparted an aura to his characters,
not merely by soft focus and fluid camera, but by
a genuine concern with the wondrous inner life of
lovers. "Moonrise" is one of his masterpieces.
