THE WHITE HOUSE refused to deny reports of secret
contacts between Washington and the new leadership in North
Vietnam.
The refusal, coming while President Nixon is engaged in thorough
discussions on Vietnam with adviser Dr. Henry Kissinger, increased
speculation that the U.S. is making a new approach to the North
Vietnamese leadership since the death of Ho Chi Minh.
Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler, who declined to speak about
the secret negotiation reports, said the Nixon administration is care-
fully watching the situation in South Vietnam when asked about
further troop withdrawals.
SOUTH AFRICA defied a United Nations deadline by-refusing
to relinquish control of neighboring South-West Africa.
The deadline. adopted Aug. 12, was a followup to a 1966 U.N.
vote terminating South Africa's mandate over South-West AfricaI
and calling for its eventual independence.
South African Foreign Minister Hilgard Muller wrote U N. Secre-
tary-General U Thant that the resolution terminating the mandate
was "without justification in fact and in law."
Strong negative reaction is expected from African U.N. delegations
which have asked for sanctions against South Africa if they do not
leave South-West Africa.
RED CHINA fired a hydrogen bomb in the atmosphere and
staged its first underground nuclear test last month, Radio Peking
annouced.
The Chinese-language broadcast said the underground explosion
took place Sept 23 while the atmospheric test was conducted Sept. 29.
The blasts were detected by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission at the
time but the Red Chinese remained silent about them until now.

"has ever been involved in any illegal, unethical, or e v e n
questionable transaction with Robert G. Baker," former Sen-
ate aide convicted of income tax evasion.
Clark R. Mollenhoff, deputy counsel to President Nixon,
released a two-page letter a n d a four-page memorandum
which he said he has sent to some half-dozen persons, most-
ly Republican senators, who had expressed concern about re-
ports a b o u t the relationship between the Supreme Court
nominee and Baker.
"Judge Haynsworth says he will testify under oath that
he has had only three casual conversations with Robert G.
Baker, that he has not seen - -

and that they have never en-Gul
gaged in any conversations on

The three conversations, Mol-

"+1957 and 1958 "at a time when
Mr. Baker was an employe of the
Democratic majority of the United

to be a man of good reputation."

BATON ROUGE, La., (P)
Sen. Russell B. Long has col-
lected at least $329,151 in oil
royalties since 1964 which have
been free of federal income tax-
es because of the 2712 per cent
depletion allowance he now is
defending in Congress.
This income is the tax-shel-
tered portion of the $1,196,915
which Louisiana Mineral Board
records show Long has received
during the past. 51 years for his
interests in four state oil and
gas leases.
The Senate Finance Commit-
tee, headed by Long, currently
is considering a House-passed
bill cutting the depletion allow-
ance to 20 per cent. Under pres-
ent law, 272 per cent of gross
income from oil, gas and other
minerals is exempt from federal
income taxes.
While presiding over Finance
Committee hearings last week,
Long agreed with oil industry

witnesses who argued that re-
ducing the depletion allowance
"would be a breach of faith by
Congress."
The Louisiana Democrat, who
has been identified with the oil
industry since he came to the
Senate two decades ago, de-
scribes himself as a "very small
independent" in a field domi-
nated by giant firms.
"Most of my income is from
oil and gas,' Long said in an in-
terview.
There is no ban against mem-
bers of Congress having such fi-
nancial holdings, and Long said,
"I don't regard it as any con-
flict of interest."
"A long time ago I became
convinced that if you have fi-
nancial interests completely
parallel to your state, then you
have no problem," he said. "My
state produces more oil and gas
per acre than any other state
in the Union. If I didn't repre-

sent the oil and gas industry, I
wouldn't represent the state of
Louisiana."
Records here disclose that
since 1954 Long has received
$1.2 million in overriding royal-
ties on four tracts leased by the
state. An individual who holds
an overriding royalty does not
share the costs of finding and
pumping oil from the lease.
Applying the 2712 per cent
depletion allowance to this $1.2
million yields $329,151 which
has been free from the bite of
federal income taxes.
Besides these four state leases,
Louisiana records indicate the
senator has an interest in at
least seven private leases. Roy-
alty payments from private
leases are not disclosed in pub-
lie records.
Long also is listed as one of
three trustees on family trusts
which, according to records,
have collected $961,443 for hold-
ings, in state leases in 5 years.

Young said he interpreted this
to mean Miss Davis, who says she
is a Communist, can lecture onI
the campus but "by virtue of the?
regents' actions, no credit will be
given for this course."1
He told a news conference that!
he considers Miss Davis "in every
respect a full member of the fac-
ulty "
Young called action by the board
of regents to fire Miss Davis and
to keep her from teaching while
she appeals the dismissal "a vio-
lation of the spirit if not the letter'
of justice and due process."
Miss Davis was fired by the re-+
gents Sept. 19 after she said she
belonged to a Communist club.
She accused the regents of racial
prejudice.
Regents s a i d a long-standing

bers from teaching on campus. +
Miss Davis maintains the rule
is unconstitutional. The UCLA
Philosophy Department hired her,
to teach "Reoccurring Philosophi-
cal Themes in Black Literature";
while the school processes her ap-
peal.
Miss Davis, who will continueE
receiving her salary, said she
would deliver her first lecture'
Monday. University officials said
169 students were registered in+
her course.

meeting. "I hope it's not too ser-
ious."
"Of course I'm concerned," Miss
Davis said. "I am worried about
people getting injured or killed."'
Young said he feels Miss Da-
vis' dismissal was "an inappro-
priate violation of the Constitu-
tion. There's no question about+
this in my mind."
