WASHINGTON 0P)-The House-
passed $1.3-billion aid to educa-
tion bill advanced through a Sen-
ate subcommittee without amend-
ment or dissenting vote yesterday.1

Senate Democratic Leader Mike
Mansfield (D-Mont) said he will
try to bring the bill up for floor
debate next Wednesday if it clears{
the full Labor and Public Wel-
fare Committee in time. The com-
mittee plans to take it up on
Tuesday and is expected to ap-
prove it the same day.
The subcommittee voted to ap-
prove the bill after rejecting two
attempts to change its main allo-
cation formula to give a greater
proportion of aid to poorer states.
Both amendments were defeat-
ed 6 to 4. They were offered byj
Sen. Ralph W. Yarborough (D-
Tex) and Sen. Peter H. Dominick
(R-Colo) who wanted to inject;
an equalization factor favoring
low income states.
The section they fought to
umend would authorize $1.06 bil-
lion in the next year to local
school districts with a heavy pro-
portion of children from poverty-
stricken families.
The subcommittee went along
with provisions written in by the
House to define the kind of aid
that could go to parochial and
other private school children.
Sen Wayne Morse (D-Ore),
chairman of the Education Sub-
committee, said it is his "antici-
pation and hope" that the meas-
I ure can get through the Senate

British Announcement
In England yesterday, members
of Parliament heard that Britain
often has used riot-control gas
overseas. Some members have been
denouncing the U.S. for letting
South Vietnamese employ the gas
against Communist guerrillas.
Labourite members reacted
against the announcement of
British use of gas in Viet Nam.
The government position was pre-
sented by Colonial Secretary An-
thony Greenwood.
Following Greenwood, Foreign
Secretary Michael Stewart said
that the Communists have dis-
played some signs in the past day
or so of a greater interest in
negotiating a peace settlement.

BALTIMORE - Martin Luther
King Jr. announced a new voter
registration drive for 120 southern
counties yesterday.
The drive was the first action
approved by the executive board
of the Southern Christian Lead-
ership Conference meeting in
Baltimore.
King said it would be a way to
implement the voting bill which
he expected would be passed "in
a more comprehensive form than
that submitted by the President."
BERLIN - The East German
Communists yesterday began slow-
ing down the flow of traffic at
checkpoints on the 110-mile Auto-
bahn connecting West Berlin with
West Germany, German customs
officials reported.
They voiced fear that the slow-
down was a deliberate counter
measure to a session of the West
German parliament in Berlin
April .7.
The Autobahn also is the only
road link the allies have between
West Berlin and West Germany.
There were no reports of the slow-
down affecting allied military ve-
hicles. These are handled exclu-
sively by the Russians.
NEW YORK - Strikebound Pan
American Airways and the Air

the airline termed "conversations"
yesterday, but there was no break
in the walkout that has grounded
the nation's largest international
air carrier.

BERKELEY-The trial of the

of California sit-in demonstrators
opened yesterday with an admo-
nition to the prosecuting attorney.
Dist. Atty. J. Frank Coakley
appeared to press charges in the
opening session of a mass trial
for 155 demonstrators. They were
part of the larger group arrested
after a night-long sit-in in Sproul
Hall last Dec. 2-3.
The trial, in the Berkeley Vet-

pected to last four to six weeks.
