If Ky Government
Rigs Sept. 11 Election
By MARK R. KILLIN(SWORTII
Special To The Da ily
WASHINGTON, D.C.-Congress-
man Weston E. Vivian (D-Ann
Arbor> said yesterday that "it
will be most difficult for me" to
continue his support for admin-
istration Viet Nam policy if the'
military junta of Premier Nguyen
Cao Ky rigs the September elec-
tions for a national constituent
assembly.
Vivian said in a House speech
that "expressions of both appre-'
hension and confidence can be
found" about the meaningfulness
of the September 11 vote, and
urged the House foreign affairs
committee to hold hearings on the
subject "both to manifest its con-
cern and to inform the public."
Referring to pessimistic reports
about the elections. Vivian noted
that:
-Funds and comm unica ion
Facilities to be used during the
eampaign must be financed only
by the present government:
-Only 22 days were Liven be-
t ween the day the election reg ula-
tions were issued and the final,
day for filing nominating petitions
or the assembly; and
--The Ky junta can strike the
name of any candidate from the
list of candidates in the next two
weeks-an increasingly imporitant
factor since the petition filing
date passed several days ago.
Vivian added that he had spoken
to Vietnamese citizens, newspaper
correspondents and members of
4S the British Parliament-among;
t hem Labor party members John
Mendelson and Arthur Blenkin-
op, the party's former vice-chair-
man. who had all voiced concern

show of strength for its policies'
rather than a test of its accept-

"I have supported our actions
in Viet Nam for many, many
months," Vivian said. "However.
it will be most difficult for me to
continue this support if I find
that the South Vietnamese people
are being cruelly deprived by their
current government of this crucial
opportunit for sell-expression."
HoWever. Vivia n added, not all
coments hI has had on the
election have been so pessimistic.
He said one journalist had told
him the vote will "be fai more

Outing

Late World Newis
By The Associated Press
CLEVELAND-GOV. JAMES A. RHODES declared last night
a state of emergency exists in Cleveland after a second night of
rioting in which a Negro man was shot to death. The killing was
the second in two nights of violent disorders in the heavily
Negro Hough area.
Rhodes, who had ordered 1,500 National Guardsmen into
Cleveland, said in Columbus that he would call up as many troops
as necessary. An aide said the action did not mean martial law
was in effect. The first units of guardsmen moved in shortly
before midnight as the violence appeared temporarily in check.
Eighteen jeeploads of soldiers were the first to begin street patrol
on foot in the area.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA.-STATE TROOPERIS blocked oil
part of Jacksonville's Negro section last night as vandalism
flared up again in the city's smouldering racial situation. 'Ihe
outbreaks-including two reported store fires and some window
smashing, occurred after the area had been relatively quiet till
past mid-evening.
U-NITED NATIONS-A SPOKESMAN for 36 Alrican coun-
tlries in the United Nations struck angrily at the world court
yesterday calling its decision on South-West Africa political and
a betrayal of the people in the former League of Nations mandate
territory.
The court, officially known as the International Court of
Justice, dismissed a suit Monday by Ethiopia and Liberia to end
South Africa's unrestricted control of South-West Africa. The
plaintiffs charged South Africa was imposing apartheid-racial
segregation-on the primitive people of South-West Africa.
GRENADA, MISS.-CITY POLICE arrested about 50 Negro
pickets yesterday as they marched in front of a grocery store in
their "blackout" boycott campaign Pickets have been on the
march in this northern Mississippi city of 8,000 since the South-
ern Christian Leadership Conference opened a civil rights drive
last week.
Leon Hall, SCLC worker, said the officers accused the
pickets arrested of threatening Negroes who wanted to trade at
the store-located in a predominantly Negro neighborhood.
* * *
MONTGOMERY, ALA.-GOV. George C. Wallace accused
federal antipoverty officials yesterday of financing the "black
power" movement. He said a convicted Negro killer is helping
run the poverty program in one Alabama county.
REPUBLICAN U.S. SEN. Robert Griffin led Detroit Mayor
Jerome Cavanagh and was only a shade behind former Gov. G.
Mennen Williams in an election poll reported by the Detroit
News, the AP said last night.
Griffin led Cavanagh by 42 per cent to 35 per cent while
trailing Williams 43 to 42 per cent, in a statewide poll, the News
said. Griffin is unopposed for the Republican nomination in the
Aug. 2 pIiinary. Cavanagh and Williams are rivals for the Demo-
cratic nomination.
THIS WEEK . J(7LY 20-23, the University Players are present-
ing one of Harold Pinter's famous plays, The Birthday Party.
The production will be directed by guest lecturer Roy Knight
from the College of the Venerable Bede, Durham, England.
