A 75c (cheap) NEXT WEEK PAUL NEWMAN as HARPER By The Associated Press The impact of moratorium day, the largest anti-war protest in American history, was visible in the diverse re- actions it caused throughout the Unit- ed States and the world yesterday. The reactions ranged from sharp criticism of the protest to enthusiastic expressions of support. But these ex- pressions were sometimes tragic. In Blackwood, N.J., two high school seniors committed suicide after at- tending a moratorium observance. Craig Badiali and Joan Fox, both 17, were found dead in a monoxide-filled car yesterday. They left a number of notes saying they died in. the name of peace. Badiali's 21-year-old brother said, "My brother died of his anti-war con- victions." A medical investigator said the two students had asked that all who heard of their death work for peace. In New York, Mayor John V. Lind- say appeared at City Hall on the day of the moratorium to endorse the anti- war effort. Lindsay, Liberal candidate for re-election in November, received large receptions at ten rallies. His proclamation lowering flags and his participation in the moratorium were his deepest plunges into the peace movement so far. "This form of dissent is the highest form of patriotism," said Lindsay. "Anyone who says this demonstration is unpatriotic does not know the his- tory of his own nation." John Marchi, Lindsay's opponent, blasted Lindsay, charging he had "planted a dagger in the back of American servicemen in Vietnam" by proclaiming Wednesday a day of mourning and participating in its events. Marchi backs President Nixon's Viet- nam policy. Democratic candidate Mario Procac- cino, who has called the war "a colos- sal mistake," said the moratorium was "perfectly all right." In Washington, spokesmen for Pres- ident Nixon said telegrams from the public tabulated during a 24-hour pe- riod ending yesterday morning sup- ported President Nixon's Vietnam poli- cies by a margin of more than 4 to 1. Press Secretary Ronald L. Ziegler said the figures did not relate directly to the nation-wide demonstrations but coincided with them. After the moratorium, a spokesman for President Nixon said, "I don't think the President can be affected by a mass demonstration of any kind." Praise, C Herbert G. Klein, Nixon's director of communications, s a i d Wednesday 'night, "It's also true and clear to the President that a vast majority of the American people are supporting his policy." - Various local leaders of moratorium day observations expressed confidence that the President, who said earlier he "he would not in any way be affected by the moratorium," would eventually be. forced to accede to the protesters' demands. Jerome Grossman, a Boston busi- nessman who helped originate Viet- nam Moratorium Day, said yesterday he is delighted with the response. "We are overwhelmed at the re- sponse of the people and we don't see how President Nixon can fail to change his policies." "We look forward to his announcing WORLD PREMIERE II MNNV. 3.

And Sam Brown, a coordinator of the moratorium, said in Washington, "If there is no change in Vietnam policy, if the President does not re- spond, there will be a second mora- torium." Already demonstrations are being scheduled for the next three months amid a warning they might prove less peaceful than yesterday's action. New York's City's moratorium co- ordinator, Adam Walinsky, said "If Nixon does not respond, people will be left with a choice between apathy on the one hand and another sort of political action on the other, perhaps violent." See STRIKE, Page 6 stay after Viet peace WASHINGTON (/P) - Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird said yesterday the United States is planning on keeping a "residual force" of several thousand men as trainers and advisers in Vietnam after the end of all fighting. His remark, at an impromptu news conference, was the first of- ficial word that the United States was thinking of keeping some troops in Vietnam for a time after the war. "I wouldn't want to make any prediction," Laird said when ask- ed how long such a force would remain. He declined to discuss contin- gency planning specifically, but indicated such a residual force would be a little bigger than the 6,000 to 7,000 advisers he said were there in the Kennedy ad- ministration. That was before the Krulwich United States entered the ground ries on war on a large scale under Presi- dent Johnson, raising the U.S. troop commitment to 543,500 men. ; The question of a residual force came up in a discussion of budget- ing plans for fiscal 1971, which begins next June 30. bilvVbi.! T I ti EVAN HUNTER wwslo vw THE UNITED STATES rejected an offer by Hanoi for secret negotiations. The offer, made by the North Vietnamese delegation to the Paris1 peace talks, suggested that the U.S. bypass the Saigon government and begin the secret talks immediately.' However, Henry Cabot Lodge, chief U.S. delegate to the Paris1 negotiations, said that any private talks must include all four parties at the Paris conference. THE SENATE FINANCE COMMITTEE voted in favor of a 5 per cent income tax surtax for the first six months of next year. The vote was reported recorded by approximately a 2-1 margin. The 10 per cent surtax on incomes expires Dec. 31. President Nixon{ asked for a 5 per cent extension, and the House has voted in favorj of it.

The return of Soyuz 6 left two manned spaceships and five cosmonauts still in orbit. The welding was done in an attempt to determine the best meth- od of putting together the permanent space stations which the Soviets plan to assemble. It was the first time orbiting spacemen have at- tempted to weld metals together. THE JUMP IN UNEMPLOYMENT reported last month as the biggest in nine years wasn't as large as Labor Department fig- ures indicated, according to some government economists. The report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics said the nation's jobless rate rose from 3.5 to 4 per cent of the civilian labor force, the sharpest monthly increase since 1960 and the highest rate in two years. But doubts are being expressed that the increase was as large as reported, because the survey may have been affected by high school and college students still looking for work. Had the survey been taken a week later than it was, a lower unemployment rate would have been recorded because the students would have quit the labor market to return to classes. NIXON ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS predicted a down- ward trend in interest rates and a lessening of pressure toward higher living costs by the start of the new year. These forecasts were given to newsmen yesterday after the Presi- dent met with ranking Democrats and Republicans on the congres- sional appropriations and finance committees to pledge perserverence in anti-inflation efforts. THE 1969 NOBEL PRIZE for physiology and medicine was awarded jointly to three American scientists. Max Delbrueck of the California Institute of Technology, Alfred D. Hershey of the Carnegie Institute, and Salvedor E. Luria of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology were honored for discoveries concerning the replication mechanism and genetic structure of viruses. This was the fourth straight year the prize has been awarded to scientists in the United States. The prize this year carries a record cash amount of $75,000. By TAMMY JACOBS Former Secretary of Labor W. Willard Wirtz blasted both the media and the government yester- day in a lecture entitled "Tyranny in the Dialogue." About 115 people attended the lecture, first in a series by Wirtz on "Politics of Change". T h e series is part of the annual Wil- liam W. Cook Lectures on Amer- ican Institutions. Wirtz, who served as Secre- tary of Labor in the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, referred to dialogue as one of the greatest aspects of democracy, but con- demned the fact that the public knows "less and less" about prob- lems confronting it. he also asserted that in all but about two of the Presidential can- didaciescthis century, the candi- dates could have exchanged speeches without changing t h e election results. "There isn't any dialogue." he said. "Only sound. Not even fury, but it signifies. It signifies t h a t there's nothing there." The fault is not only in t h e government, according to Wirtz. "The 'tendency of power to cor- rupt applies to no place so much as to the press," he commented. "I question and challenge the right of the press to give the public the mix it does of what is good and what is bad; and the diet is does of what is or isn't important."

I 11 WASHINGTON (P) - Congress gave final approval yesterday to a bill designed to encourage banks to make federally guaranteed loans to college students. House passage by a 326 to 10 vote completed action on the bill, which would provide an incentive allowance for the banks equal to an additional three per cent in- terest. The legislation was made neces- sary by the recent increase in the prime interest rate to 8,2 per cent. The present law limits the interest rate on student loans to 7 per cent. If the full allowance were paid, banks would get 10 per cent. , - \ HOMECOMING UNL7CUKVjUrqU AitI Mt:i PPFTH FOI'UM '69 PROUDLY PRESENTS -RICHIE HAVENS LAURA NYRO -- SWEETWATER flicks & jams This Friday and Saturday, Oct. 17 and 18-11:00 P.M.
