For Information Call 769-1769 news briefs, by The Associated Press CAMPAIGN GM, a stockholders organization, announced yes- terday that it was expanding its activities to Ford, Chrysler and other large corporations. The group, which was formed only last year, has tried to increase the decision making powers of the stockholders in overall corporation policy. With the increased influence, the stockholders hope to make the corporations more socially responsible in areas such as ecology and consumer affairs. A GENERAL STRIKE by hundreds of thousands of Roman workers closed virtually all businesses in the Italian capital yesterday. The strike was called to protest the deteriorating economic conditions which have resulted in mass lay-offs in many industrial areas. The problem is compounded by an equally unstable political situa- tion as the country has been without an effective government for the past seventeen months. Many fear that the social and economic unrest will aid the Neo-Fascist Italian Social Movement. * * *. A MASS arrest of suspected subversives in Brazil continued yesterday, as at least four Rio newspaper reporters were taken into custody. A source in the military-run government said more than 200 persons, mostly students, had been jailed since last weekend. Under Brazil's military regime, the armed forces and police can arrest anyone on suspicion of "endangering national security," and hold him as long as they want. The current wave of arrests was the biggest operation of its kind in Brazil in more than a year. SENATE LIBERALS failed for the second time yesterday to end a Southern fillibuster on equal employment legislation. The attempt to limit debate, led by Sens. Harrison A. Williams, Jr. (D-N.J.) and Jacob Javits (R-N.Y.) fell six votes short of the two-thirds majority required. Sen. Javits said a third attempt to end debate will be made later. The bill is designed to strengthen federal laws against employment discrimination. It is opposed by southern Democrats and conserva- tive Republicans who would rather see discrimination decisions left to the courts where action against offenders is usually very slow. * * * THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION made a ruling yesterday that would limit the growth of cable television. The decision allows for some development of the new media, but many concessions were made to protect the interests of the estab- lished broadcasting agencies. Commission chairmen Dean Burch hailed the decision as "his- toric," but Nicholas Johnson, an outspoken liberal and a supporter of cable television, saw the ruling as essentially destroying the pur- pose of the cable system. For the Student Body: Committee trims Nixon's request for -debt -celing WASHINGTON () - The House Ways and Means Com- mittee voted yesterday to give the deficit-plagued Nixon administration less than half the extra borrowing power it had requested and to recall government economic spokesmen by early summer for another grilling on the economy. The Democratic-controlled committee approved for House consideration a bill that would raise the ceiling on the na- tional debt from the present $430 billion to $450 billion, but only until June 30. President Nixon had asked for a- - V .

SPACED-O UT: Narcs take to the tair in war on dope raise to $480 billion with no time limit. While Congress routinely trims administration requests for bor- rowing power, no request in recent years had been treated so roughly as this one. Secretary of the Treasury John Connally had testified that the $480 billion figure would- take care of government borrowing needs until February 1973, al- though the budget for the year ending next June 30 is estimated to be $38.8 billion in the red and the proposed budget for the fol- lowing year short by $25.5 billion. He said unless some relief was granted promptly, the debt would surpass the present ceiling around March 1. But Democratic members of the committee soon made it evident they had no intention of letting the administration and its eco- nomic policies off the financial hook until after the November presidential election. Rep. Al Ullman (D-Ore.) who presided over the committee ses- sions on the debt ceiling, said aft- erward that administration predic- tions were unconvincing, espe- cially since the size of the im- pending deficits had not been forecast. "The committee was unwilling to accept the administration's pro- jections for a whole year, both of revenues and expenditures,",Ull- man said. Chairman Wilbur Mills (D. Ark.), who has been at home for what aides described as a slow recuperation from a back ail- ment, did not take part in the sessions. It was understood, how- ever, that he approved of the de- cision and intends to handle the bill on the floor. The schedule calls for the House to pass the bill before beginning its Lincoln's Birthday holiday at the end of business Wednesday, leaving the rest of the month for Senate action on the measure. CAPE KENNEDY, fP1) - The narc, a natural enemy of all dope smokers and growers, will be even tougher to spot very soon if the federal government has anything to say about it. The U.S. Treasury Depart- ment's Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs has begun work on the development of a satellite that would be able to detect marijuana and opium poppy fields from a distance of one hundred miles above the ground. At present, the department is spending some two million dol- lars in an attempt to determine the signature of the marijuana plant. The signature is the pat- tern by which a plant reflects heat and light during various phases of its growth. The system will not be per- fect, however concedes Dr. Rob- ert Miller of the Agriculture De- partment, "because even with an established signature, we State probes Hanrahan Panther ease From Wire Service Reports won't be able to detect relative- ly small crops of marijuana". This limitation will make the marijuana crop unique in the field of agriculture since the Agriculture Department policy generally favors the larger grow- ers at the expense of the small farmer. It is also unlikely that the government will pay subsidies ,to large marijuana growers to prevent them from over-produc- ing, as is the case with other cash crops. To test the project, the gov- ernment will grow three large marijuana fields in the southern United States, probably in Tex- as. Florida and Arizona. Once in operation, however, the satellite will fly all over the world and will turn over the data it collects to other coun- tries where it finds large de- posits of the evil weed, as mari- juana is often called by its de- tractors. Illinois State Attorney Edward Hanrahan and thirteen co-defen- dants pleaded innocent yesterday, to charges of obstructing justice stemming from a police raid in which two Black Panthers were killed. A criminal court judge ruled Wednesday, that Hanrahan and the thirteen co-defendants had to stand trial for their role in the Panther incident. Hanrahan is a onetime protege of Mayor Richard Daley, and is a candidate for re-election even though the Daley organization withdrew its support for his can- didacy. The court's ruling ended months of legal maneuvering by the de- fendants who were attempting to avoid a trial in the politically ex- plosive case. Hanrahan, one of his assist- ants and twelve Cook County po- licemen, were indicted by a grand jury on charges of trying to cov- er up the facts after police raid- ed a Panther apartment Dec. 4, 1969, in a search for weapons. Black Panther leaders Mark Clark and Fred Hampton were killed by police gunfire during the raid, which turned up an arsenal of weapons.

TWO GENRE CLASSICS: ALFRED HITCHCOCK'S STRANGERS ON A TRAIN, 1951 (7:00 P.M. ONLY) A great suspense movie in which two men meet on a train and form an unholy alliance involving murder. Death comes at the strangest places (tennis matches, merry-go-rounds) and the absolutely breathless climax incorporates everything Hitchcock is famous for. As for the star, critics worldwide agree that this is Farley Granger's finest film. BILLY WILDER'S WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION, 1958 (9:00 P.M.

It stars Charles Laughton, Tyrone Power, and Marlene Dietrich, and they are uniformly brilliant. ..% k 1 . "i i .. St3 ' ., , " :/ e f
