WASHINGTON (A)-The House
yesterday passed a constitutional
amendment that would insure
against any break In the exercise
of the powers and duties of the
presidency.
j The vote was 367 to 29.
The amendment differs slightly
from one passed 72-0 by the Sen-
ate last February. Unless the Sen-
ate accepts the House changes a
compromise version will have to be
worked out.
When Congress completes ac-
tion, three-fourths of the states
must ratify the proposal before
it can become the 25th Amend-
ment to the United States Con-
stitution.

The legislation has two main
purposes: to keep the office of
Vice-President filled at all times,
and to provide the means for hav-
ing the powers and duties of a
disabled President transferred to
the Vice -President.
On the first point, the amend-
ment proposes that the President
nominate a person to fill a Vice-
Presidential vacancy, subject to
the approval by majority vote of
both houses of Congress.
There were complaints from
some members that the President
should not be allowed to choose
his successor. But the chief alter-
nate proposed - that Congress
make the selection-would pro-

Three in Reeb Case
SELMA, Ala. (AP)-Three white men accused in the slaying of
the Rev. James Reeb of Boston were indicated for murder yesterday
and arrested a short time later by the Dallas County sheriff's
department.
The Dallas County grand jury returned indictments yesterday
in 26 of the 29 cases it considered.
Circuit solicitor Blanchard McLeod said "indictments were re-
turned against some people who were not on bond to this court.
They will be arrested by the sheriff's office at its earliest convenience."

The three indicted were Qdel

Hoggle, William Hoggle and Elmer

was not indicted.
The Hoggles and Cook posted
bond at $10,000 each. Circuit So-
licitor Blanchard McLeod said that
the trial would be held the week
beginning May 10, which is the
regular session of Dallas County
Criminal Court.
The three and Kelley have also
been charged with violation of
Reeb's civil rights in federal war-
rants.

Written Declaration
On the second point, when the
President makes a written decla-
ration to Congress that he is un-
able to discharge his duties, the
Vice-President takes them over
until the President declares his
ability to resume them.
If the President does not make
such a declaration, the Vice-
President and a majority of the
Cabinet may declare the Presi-
dent unable to carry on, where-
upon the Vice-President imme-
diately assumes the powers of the
office.
Thereafter, when the Preidn
tion that no inability exists, he is
reinstated at once, unless the Vice-
President and a majority of the
Cabinet challenge him within
wAtd that stage, Congress has 10
days in which to act, and it would

dent's challenge. Otherwise the
President would resume his powers.
Chief Difference
The chief difference from the
Senate bill is the 10-day limit for
congressional action. The Senate
There was criticism during de-
bate that the amendment would
open the way for unscrupulous
officials to usurp the powers of
the presidency.
