Informants said the ambassadors of the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain and France will meet at the French U.N. mission to discuss possible ways of ending the Mideast conflict. France proposed the Big Four talks on Jan. 16 and preliminary, bilateral talks between the nations involved have been going since Feb. 11. In the Security Council the French and British ambassadors de- nounced an Israeli air raid that killed 18 people Wednesday in the Jor- danian village of Ein Hazar. They 'also urged support for the big- power efforts to bring peace to the area. THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT asked a federal court yester- day to declare residential "blockbusting" illegal. The request was contained in an unprecedented "friend of the court"' petition filed in support of a suit brought by a group of black homeowners in Chicago. "Blockbusting" jis the process of creating panic in white neigh- borhoods by selling homes to blacks. Other homes are purchased for much less than actual value and resold to other blacks at inflated prices. The Justice Department based its argument on the 1866 Civil Rights law and the antislavery 13th Amendment. Offtcials said the petition was the first of a series of moves planned against housing segregation in the North. U.S. INFANTRY UNITS in South Vietnam crushed an at- tempted North Vietnamese ambush yesterday killing 46 enemy soldiers. The day-long engagement broke out in the Ben Cui rubber plan- tation, 45 miles northwest of Saigon. U.S. casualties were repot-ted as three killed, six wounded. Forty tanks and armored personnel carriers were escorting a convoy of 120 trucks carrying ammunition and food to a base at Tay Ninh when the attack began. WASHINGTON (4) - Gen. David M. Shoup; former Marine Corps commandant, says "an aggressive military" encour- aged the Johnson administra- tion to wage war in Vietnam in 1964 and abandon long-stand- ing opposition to involvement in an Asian land conflict. Shoup, as head of the Ma- rines, was a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff for four years before that date, retiring in December 1963. He since has been a critic of the U.S. role in Vietnam. Writing for the March 27 issue of Atlantic Monthly, Shoup por- trayed "belligerent," "g 1 o r y seeking" military leaders who succeeded him as competing with one another to have their services play big roles in Viet- nam. "In Vietnam during 1965," he said, "the four services were racing to build up combat strength in that hapless coun- try." Indicative of this eagerness, BEHIND WAR ESCALATION: Shoup hits 'aggressive military' Shoup said, was the Navy's and Air Force's competitive attitude in the bombing of North Viet- nam. "The punitive air strikes im- mediately following the Tonkin Gulf incident in late 1964 re- vealed the readiness of naval air forces to bomb North Viet- nam," Shoup said, adding par- enthetically: "It now appears that the Navy actually had attack plans ready even before the alleged incident took place." The Johnson administration ordered the first air strikes against North Vietnam after the Tonkin Gulf encounter, saying North Vietnamese gunboats had attacked U.S. vessels in the area. Shoup decried the U.S. bomb- ing campaign as "one of the most wasteful and expensive hoaxes ever to' be put over on the American people." By early 1965, he said, the Navy and Air Force were caught up in a bombing "contest" over the North, reporting "mislead- ing data or propaganda to serve Air Force and Navy purposes.=" Shoup said the Army and Ma- rines "played a similar game" trying to outdo each other get- ting troops into Vietnam. "Top ranking Army officers," Shop said, wanted to commit forces for a variety of reasons, among them" to test plans and new equipment, to test the new air mobile theories and tactics, to try the tactics and techniques of counter insurgency and to gain combat experience for young officers and non-com- missioned officers. "The Marines had similar mo- tivations, the least of which was any real concern about the polit- ical or social problems of the Vietnamese people," S h o u p wrote. "In early 1965 there was a shooting war going on and the Marines were being left out of it, contrary to all their tradi- tions." "So Marine planners were seeking an acceptable excuse to thrust a landing force over the beaches of Vietnam when the Viet Cong attacked the U.S. Army special forces camp at Pleiku in February 1965," Shoup recounted. '"It was considered unacceptable aggression and the President was thereby prompted to put U.S. ground combat units into the war." In addition to Vietnam he cit- ed U.S. intervention in the Do- minican Republic in 1965 in which the military's "contigen- cy plans and interservice rival- ry appeared to supersede diplo- macy. "Before the world realized what was happening, the mo- mentum and velocity of the mil- itary plans propelled almost 20,000 U.S. soldiers and Marines into the small turbulent republic in an impressive race to test the respective mobility of the Army and the Marines," Shoup said. "A small 1935-model Marine landing force could probably have handled the situation."

Up to now, we rhave had speechless awe, mystifica- tion and propaganda all banging away dismally at the same time. Now, at last, this generation is treat- ed simply as what's there, not as some blessed state of transcendence, and in a spirit of good feckless gusto a little reminiscent of PULL MY DAISY and the Beats. The absence of self-congratulation is especially bracing. The three young men around whom the film jerkily turns are just as low-down and dirty as their elderrs, only a little less bashfulrabout it Their attempts to dodge the draftare as absuri as the draft itself. Never mind the holiness of their cause- they are willing to wear women's underwear, lisp, break their legs, anything to keep out of uniform. They do not reject America, they try to outwit it. And, more often, it outwits them. They are constantly being, surprised, as neophytes should be, by furtive pornographers, Bronx secretaries, sex mystics, and their own base appetites and constantly bouncing back like hard rubber. Beyond that, their basic style is parody. They take the ponderous mumbo jumbo of, for instance, the Kennedy-assassination theorists and run screaming down the hall with WANT YOU to read this: it. Likewise, the cult of photography which has made the Vietnam war into a peepshow and the sex act into a lab slide is treated with a wild-eyed derision. The things that adults take seriously become comic dances, festival masques. This is their America, they know no other, but they have turned it into a play- ground, using the same materials we use for our funeral parlor. GREETINGS rings true partly be- cause it does have links with the past. There is a nostalgia about it. like good schoolboy fiction, even for those of us who came of age in the glum, knees-together postwar years. They act where we talked, they talk where we just thought. They are not some electronic concoctions, but col- lege students whose scurviness has evol~ved to meet new challenges- and, of course, lose to them. GREETINGS does not convey its exuberance with a bobbing camera and a garbled soundtrack. Brian de Palma and Charles Hirsch have made a solid, professional film of it, with obvious debts to Richard Lester, et al, but some good touches of their own. I had been coming to feel that any allusion in film to'the Vietna- mese mess was a sure mark of char- latanism; but this combination of TV war and draftee's nightmare is a whole fresh contribution to inter- national strain. SEN. EDWARD M. KENNEDY (D-Mass.) criticized two Nixon administration officials yesterday for laxness in enforcing equal opportunity programs. Kennedy, at a hearing of the Senate subcommittee on govern- ment operations, questioned actions taken by Secretary of Transporta- tion John A. Volpe and Deputy Secretary of Defense David R. Pack- ard. Kennedy, the chairman of the subcommittee, took Packard to task for awarding $9.4 million in contracts to three previously dis- criminatory textile films on the basis of oral, rather than written, assurances that they would comply with anti-bias requirements. Kennedy said a recent order by Volpe to strengthen equal em- ployment opportunities in highway projects was inadequate bebause contractors could shift blacks from one job to another in order to comply. u POPE PAUL VI named four Americans to be cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church yesterday. The new cardinals are Archbishops Terence Cooke of New York, John Dearden of Detroit, John Wright of Pittsburgh and John Car- berry of St. Louis. The four will be among 33 new cardinals to be elevated at a secret consistory in RomeApril 28. The Sacred College will reach an all-time high of 134 members. The Vatican announcement also brings American representation to a record ten cardinals. A PSYCHIATRIST yesterday testified that Sirhan Sirhan was "motivated by political reasons" to kill Sen. Robert F. Ken- nedy.; Dr. Seymour Pollack said Sirhan has a paranoid personality but that highly charged political reasons were Sirhan's main motiva- tion. Pollack said that Sirhan's early life in the war-torn Mideast had a considerable effect of his personality. Pollack said he could find no evidence of intermittent trances in Sirhan's early life. The defense claims Sirhan was in such a trance when he shot Kennedy. Earlier, a handwriting expert testified that Sirhan's self-exhorta- tions to kill Kennedy were not made under hypnosis. The writings were found in a notebook of Sirhan's. Three Los Angeles policemen also testified that Sirhan appeared sober after his arrest on June 5. The defense had claimed that Sirhan was intoxicated when he killed Kennedy. The testimony came as the prosecution began its rebuttal of defense claims. inspection of 549 Packard took place in 1966. Naomi Karow said she' had called Lloyd to run an inspection of the premises this. year. The furnace has since been dry- walled and two new garbage cans were put on the premises. A new certificate of compliance was is- sued March 26, 1969. A charge was also made that Kloian had turned off the heat in the building in February. How- ever he denied this. The Karows testified that the heat had gone off several times throughout the past months. But this time the two entrances to the basement were both locked from the inside and the tenants could not gain entrance to the furnace room. After gaining entrance tothe furnace room by breaking a win- dow, it was discovered that the furnace was not working. The Karows opened an account with Abbott Oil to get some oil in the furnace. It is the amount of this oil that was subtracted from the original two months' rent. Another claim mde by the Kar- ows was that their car had been towed away at the request of Kloian. It had been parked in a neighboring lot which Kloian also owns, but Kloian said that the Karows never received permission, to park the car on the premises.. Dale Berry, Grad, a member of the rent strike steering commit- tee, said "this is the third favor- able decision received by the tenants." He also indicated that they are looking for similar results on the upcoming case of Arbor Management versus Elizabeth Hertz. Pharmacy -division produces new drugs By SAM DAMREN "We are all victims of the institution we want to change, and we have to change ourself as we change the society," said Herbert Kohl, a guest panelist at an edu- cation school teach-in yesterday. The teach-in is part of a semi- nar sponsored by Students for, Educational Innovation (SEDand the education school. The semi- nar's stated concern is Problems' and Strategies for Change in American Education. Last night Kohl, author and former teacher in a New York ghetto school, discussed his cur- rent proj ect-the Store Front-a "free education school" in Berke- ley, Calif., funded by Carnegie Institute. The school is staffed by Univer- sity of California students who volunteer as teachers, and has a current enrollment of 200 students of all ages. Students attend the Store Front either as a supplement to their current schooling or full time, seven days a week. Full time enrollment was orig- inally limited to "trouble makers" in the school system. "Now kids get themselves kicked out of school," says Kohl, "to become enrolled in the Store." Next year the project expects to expand an old factory into a school house with the help of the students and faculty. Kohl said the school has an un- structed curriculum, and "every structure is introduced by the stu- (Continued from Page 1) patient regarding the patient's previous drug history and any possible conflicts with previously administered drugs orallergic re- actions, Phillipsadds. Another feature is more direct contact and consultation between the pharmacist and the physician in prescribing drugs. All this work is being done in the half million dollar facilities of the hospital pharmacy depart- ment. The pharmacy division of the facility produces and distributes medications to in- and out-pa- tients. The medications include ointments, tablets, capsules, lo- tions, and elixirs. The division also tests new drugs. Tests are run on both large and small animals for toxicity and effectiveness before being given to human volunteers. Drugs are eventually released to the com- mercial market if the human tests prove successful. The assay and control division aids in determining the potency of drugs. Medications are protected from contamination before tests by a special air filter. Air passes through a hood filter, where it is purified, to the shelves where. medications are stored. Despitesuch advanced equip- ment, the future promises to bring further innovations. Phillips says use of data processing equipment to provide an automatic catalogue of drugs is a possibility. The elec- tronic equipment might also mon- itor the use and effectiveness of drugs used in the treatment of patients. dent-we won't force anything on him." Kohl says pressure to learn basic skills like reading at a spe- cific age "often destroy a person." "The students perform in guer- rilla theatres, write poetry, make musical instruments, and do any- thing they and the Berkeley stul- dents can come up with and afford to do."I "Most of our dropouts in the Store Front are middle class kids with a love-hate relationship to- ward the Store," explained Kohl, caused by parental pressure to achieve in conflict with the Store F r o n t 's unstructured education policy. However some parents and teachers feel the unstructured at- mosphere will lower the students chances of entering college. Some of the teachers who threaten the Store Front, Kohl says, are merely hiding behind their rigid professional standard% and not really teaching. Lawson speaks to convocation (Continued from Pagel1) nots of the, third world," and the tasks that confront them. "Can the University, or any rich nation, take a new step and . be- ?in to adapt to the real needs around them?" he asked. . "Here, then, is a special role for the white faculty member in the predominantly Negro college," says Lawson. There is a placer for the white inasmuch as he sym- pathizes in the black's struggle "to. put an end to exploitation of the third world." Likewise, if black faculty mem- bers become numerous enough onb white campuses to be more than mere token signs of appeasement, "they should be able to make available some elements in the black history and heritage of which most whites are unaware." In order to solve social an d economic problems, Lawson called for "new modes of humanism which will define us as one peo- ple, which will guide us as one nation, which will guard us as citizens of the world."
