THE YOUNG AND THE DAMNED
Directed by LUIS BUNUEL
Bunuel who is "an old hand at blending surrealist imagery with leftist social protest
... has always had a special gift for making us see and feel the horrors with which
we know life abounds but which we so devoutly prefer to avoid discussing."-Life.
In Young and the Damned (filmed in Mexico as Los Olvidados) he presents a bru.-
tal study of slum children running wild on the outskirts of Mexico City, where they
steal, beat up a blind beggar, attack a legless man and commit murder. Bunuel ex-
amines the piles of rubble, squallid hovels and garbage heaps where poeple scrounge
for food like animals.
"There is nothing imagined in this film. It is all merely true." Bunuel

Paperwork swamps draft

By The Associated Press
Paperwork is piling up at d r a f t
boards in some of the nation's large
cities, due largely to an increase of
conscientious objector applications,
requests for hardship deferments, and
staff shortages a survey shows.
"People are a lot more aware of their
rights and they're taking advantage of
them," said Maj. William Sangemino,
head of the Manpower and Training
office of New York City Selective Ser-
vice.
In an Associated Press survey of 10
areas in the country, New York, Chi-
cago, Detroit, Denver, Baltimore and
Los Angeles, all reported a paperwork
increase.
Heavy deferment requests and ap-
peals were cited by a spokesman for
Los Angeles County draft boards,
which are opening their doors at 10
a.m. instead of 8 a.m., providing two
hours to handle a growing amount of
paperwork.
New York City's 96 draft boards have

been ordered to close each day at 2
p.m. instead of 5 p.m. and spend the
three afternoon hours catching up on
their work.
Sangemino said the pileup was
caused by prospective draftees claim-
ing deferment as conscientious objec-
tors or hardship cases. There also have
been staff shortages, with some per-
sonnel diverted to restore records de-
stroyed during the summer by antiwar
vandals.
Increased draft calls since the esca-
lation of the Vietnam war, plus appli-
cations by conscientious objectors and
hardship cases were highlighted as the
causes of a crush of paperwork at De-
troit's f i1v e boards. However, normal
business hours have been maintained.
"There are a lot more conscientious
objectors these days," said one em-
ploye in Detroit.
Some draft boards in Chicago and
other parts of Illinois are closing for
one hour in the morning. John Ham-

mack, head of the Illinois Selective
Service, said lack of personnel is a
problem.
"There has been some increase in
requests for deferments and conscien-
tious objector status, but not alarm-
ingly so," Hammack added. "Especial-
ly in the farm areas, they think it's a
matter of obligation. 'Dad went, so I'll
do my part for my country' - that's
their attitude.
"There are some in the cities who
have been handed everything and they
don't want to do their part. It's very
hard to convince the public that con-
scientious objectors are a luxury -
only a strong nation can afford them."
Chicago's Selective Service director,
Col. John Siegle, said most of the in-
creased paperwork in that area is the
result of the postwar baby boom, with
those youngsters now coming of age.
He said "maybe 30 per cent" could be
attributed to more deferment requests.

THE HOUSE RULES COMMITTEE yesterday voted to con-
tinue a bill for five more years protecting black voting rights in
the south.
The bill which passed 9-6 extends the 1965 Voting Rights Act'
banning literacy tests in seven states and authorizing federal officials
to register blacks and help them vote.
President Nixon has urged Congress to replace the 1965 bill with
one which eliminates literacy tests in all states and filing a standard
residency requirement for voting in presidential elections.
Rep. Emanual Celler (D-N.Y.), manager of the extension bill,
said 800,000 blacks have been registered because of the 1965 bill.
The bill is expected to reach the house floor next week.

THE SENATE TALLY swayed in favor of Judge Clement F.
Haynsworth Jr.'s nomination to the Supreme Court as Sen. Ralph
T. Smith (R-Ill.), announced yesterday he will vote affirmative.
Earlier in the day Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska) also said he
would vote in favor of the nomination bringing the vote to 41-40 fort
Haynsworth.
The final Senate vote has been set for noon Friday.

THE UNITED STATES AND SOVIET UNION held their first
disarmament session yesterday in Helsinki, Finland,
Discussion centered around how to stop the nuclear arms race,
but no results of the talks were announced. A second work session is
scheduled for tomorrow. This indicates sessions will be held on al-
ternative days for the strategic arms limitations talks (SALT).
NON-NUCLEAR COUNTRIES voiced opposition to U.S.-Soviet ef-
forts to gain U.N. approval of a treaty aimed at keeping the seabed
free of nuclear weapons.
The nations, led by Canada, also objected to drafts of agree-
ments for preventing biochemical warfare.
Canadian delegate George Ignatieff demanded further modifica-!
tion of the draft treaty because it failed to meet many countries
expectations.

boards
spokesman said, "Our workload is
very high." But another in Baltimore
reported, "There are more conscien-
tious objectors now, but we don't have
any serious backlog."
Maj. Paul Baldwin, deputy director
of Selective Service in Colorado, said
in Denver, "We're plenty busy," but
that so far all nine draft boards in
the Denver area are maintaining nor-
mal hours, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., five
days a week.
"We have some conscientious people
who are putting in extra h o u r s in
some cases because of a heavy run of
work and temporary shortage of em-
ployes," Baldwin said.
Col. Richard Davis, coordinator of
t h e San Francisco Selective Service
headquarters th a t includes 54 draft
boards in 16 northern California coun-
ties, said, "We probably have a back-
log from time to t i m e, particularly
since some of the boards are short-
staffed primarily due to retirements."
