Only hours earlier, Communist Party chief Gustav Husak had en- dorsed the Aug. 20-21, 1968 invas- ion and warned against anniver- sary agitation. Riot squads, backed by m o r e than a dozen armored personnel carriers and water cannon vehi- cles, cleared major parts of the square with three separate tear gas attacks. GULFPORT, Miss. (N)-Limited martial law was clamped on Mississippi's storm-ravaged coastal strip yesterday and Gov. John Bell Williams said Hurricane Camille's death toll may soar far higher than first feared. "Because of the fact that bodies are now being found regularly, some people estimate the death rate could go up above 500 and possibly reach 1,000," he said. The storm's death toll stood at 170. The governor said the highway patrol counted 162 killed along Mississippi's coast. Louisiana counted eight dead in flat Plaquemines Parish county, hit by raging tides that left its bottom half under deep water.

The first step, Williams said, was to quarantine the area and limit the flow of people-particu- ..,larly sightseers. State Adj. Gen. Walter Johnson said his Guardsmen would deal mainly with police and rescue Imatters. "They're not going to try to run the government," he said. President Nixon declared parts of Louisiana a major disaster area and allocated $1 million in fed- eral disaster funds. He did the same for Mississippi's coast Mon- day-. The President also said he was sending Vice President Spiro T. Agnew and George Romney, Sec- retary of Housing and Urban De- velopment, to New Orleans today to inspect the stricken areas on a helicopter tour. Gov. Williams acted on the rec- ommendation of the state adju- tant general who said that the sightseers were turning the coast "into a carnival." Johnson said he had 2,000 men under arms and "I've got to bring in another 2,000. Sightseers are jamming in-looking for bodies, I guess." The death toll jumped Tuesday with the discovery of 23 bodies in a luxury apartmenticomplex at 'nearby. Pass Christian' and the announcement by authorities in Louisiana's Plaquemines Parish county that they knew of eight dead in the area. HRC against school police The Ann Arbor Human Rela- tions Commission last night voted "to go down on record" as op- posing the presence of a resident policeman in the public secondary schools.

Arresting officer William Thorne, of the Brighton County Narcotics Squad, s a i d yesterday the five people were stopped in a "rented vehicle" in Oakland, New Jersey, on their way back to Ann Arbor from the Woodstock Rock Festival in New York. Thorne 'said he had a search warrant when Plamondon and the others were stopped. However, Thorne would not say whether or not the people w e r e originally stopped because of a traffic vio- lation. "That's part of the case against them,' Thorne said. The arresting officer claimed he found quantities of hashish, mari- juana and unidentified pills in the car. The pills will be examined by the crime laboratory at Brighton. The five are being held in the Brighton County jail until they put up bond originally set at $7,500 for each person. However, a lawyer for the five was successful in :getting the bond reduced to $500 for each woman, $1,500 for Plamondon and $1,000 for the other two men who have not been identified. Thorne said the five probably will not face trial for another year. After the preliminary examination -if the judge rules there is prob- able cause that a crime was com- mitted-they will go before a The statement was seen as a perfunctory rebuff to the inde- pendent Irish Republic to the south that has demanded a review of the 50-year-old partition of Ireland. The developments brought a mixed reaction in Northern Ire- land. Bernadette Devlin, 22-year-old, member of the British Parliament 'who became a Joan 'of Arc to the~ embattled Catholics at the peak of last week's fighting, said in a broadcast: "Mr. Wilson's state- ment has given hope that now things are going to be for the bet- ter."
