PRESIDENTIAL ASSISTANT H. R. HALDEMAN accused
Senate critics of President Nixon's eight-point peace plan of
yconsciously aiding and abetting the enemy of the United States"
yesterday.
His remarks were made on the NBC "Today" program. Presi-
dential press secretary Ronald Ziegler said Haldeman's remarks ex-'
pressed his own personal opinion and he was not speaking for the'
President.
BANGLADESH PRIME MINISTER Sheik Mujibur Rahman and
India Prime Minister Indira Gandhi agreed yesterday to withdraw
all Indian troops from Bangladesh by the end of March.
The two leaders were quoted by reliable sources to have said
they felt the troops had fulfilled their purpose and that their continued
presence would "serve as fuel for Pakistani propaganda."
In Dacca, a Bangladesh spokesman said the government has jailedj
nearly 1,500 Bihari Moslems for collaboration with the Pakistan army.
CLIFFORD IRVING, the purported biographer of Howard
Hughes, spent 90 minutes today before a New York grand jury
investigating charges of fraud.
Meanwhile, the Internal Revenue Service filed tax liens totaling
more than $490,000 against Irving and his wife, who allegedly de-
posited $650,000 intended for Hughes in a Swiss bank.
Although a formal extradition request for Mrs. Irving has not
yet been received from Swiss officials, Interpol (International Police)>
has asked for her arrest.

A SPACE AGENCY REPORT from Houston suggests that
American and Soviet spacemen may link and orbit their space-
craft while visiting with each other for two days.,
The report said a mid-1975 launch date was feasible. After the
docking exercise, the American spacecraft would separate, descend
to a lower circular orbit and remain aloft 11 more days.

THE HOUSE APPROVED yesterday a bill that provides for
a $250 million two-year pilot program offering free or low-cost
meals and services to needy persons sixty years of age and
older. The bill now goes to the Senate.
The program, to be administered by the states, gives preference
to low-income people and insures that allocated grants allow minority
individuals to run the projects and receive benefits from them.
Benefits include at least one hot meal five times per week,
health and welfare counseling and recreational opportunities.

President OKs
bil regulating
election funds
WASHINGTON UP) - President Nixon signed a bill yes-
terday which limits the amount of money a presidential can-
didate can spend on his election.
The legislation also requires reporting of campaign con-
tributions over-$100.
The law sets no over-all campaign spending limit, but
presidential candidates can spend no more than $50,000 or
10 cents for every potential voter, whichever is larger. Based
on this formula, the maximum expenditure would be $8.4
million.
Senate candidates are limited to
spending $35,000 on their ownuse candidates
can only spend $25,000. 1i

MARIANNE MOORE, the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet who
died Saturday at age 84, was buried today in Brooklyn.
Miss Moore, probably America's most-honored woman poet,
also won the Bollingen Prize in 1951 and the National Book Award
in 1952.

SAN FRANCISCO () - Ne-
gotiators in the West Coast dock
strike worked yesterday to
achieve agreement before Con-
gress votes on a new plan for a
60-day injunction to partially
end the record 122-day walkout.
Th 'y resumed talks less than
an hour after a House Labor
Subcommittee in Washington
approved the injunction plan
drafted by Chairman F r a n k
Thompson, (D-N.J.). Earlier the
committee rejected the Presi-
dent"s plan calling for strikers
immediate return to their jobs.
Thompson said Harry Bridges,
president of the International
Longshoremen's a n d Ware-
housemen's Union, told him the
union would continue the San
Francisco negotiations through
Wednesday.
Bridges was quoted as saying
the ILWU then would propose

submitting 11 unresolved issues
to a private mediator for bind-
ing arbitration.
Thompson's bill would author-
ize the government to seek a 60-
day injunction ordering the
union and shippers to handle
military and agricultural car-
goes and shipments, about 80
per cent of strikebound cargo,
to and from Hawaii.
Meanwhile, Sen. Robert Grif-
fin, (R-Mich.) says he is "not
very optimistic" that the Senate
will do anything in the near fu-
ture to force an end to the West
Coast dock strike.
Griffin said in a speech to the,
Kalamazoo Rotary Club yester-
day that he blamed inaction to
political power of union lead-
ers, saying that legislators, es-
pecially in an election year, sim-
ply don't want to do anything to
upset a great number of union
leaders.

The bill goes into effect in 60
f days, and will apply to some of
the last presidential primaries. It
covers spending in television ra-
dio, newspaper. magazine, and
telephone advertising.
No more than 60 per cent of
total campaign expenditures can
be spent on broadcast ads. Sta-
tions selling air time to federal
candidates must charge the low-
est unit rate during the 45 days i
before a primary and 60 days be-+
fore a general election.
Backers says the legislation is
designed to end secret campaign
financing via District of Colum-
bia and intrastate committees, and1
will be the first covering of spend-
ing in primary elections.
The President called the bill
"realistic and enforceable," when
he signed it without public cere-
mony. Nixon vetoed an October,
1970, bill which limited only ra-
dio and television expenditures.
saying it plugged "only one hole
in the sieve."
The bill prevents newspapers
and magazines from charging po-
litical candidates more for cam-
paign advertising than they charge
for the use of the space by other
advertisers.

suit against
PayBoard
WASHINGTON P) - The
United Auto Workers yesterday
presented the federal Pay Board
with its first major lawsuit, ac-
cusing it of acting illegally by
denying a pay raise to aerospace
workers.
The long-promised suit alleges
that the board exceeded its au-
thority, ignored its own rules,
failed to hold required public hear-
ings, and based its action not on
logic but on an assumption that
aerospace workers would not
strike their depressed industry.
"We allege that the orders were
taken on the basis of politics and
administrative convenience, ratier
than facts and reason," said UAW
President Leonard Woodcock.
Pay Board spokesmen had no
comment.
Target of the UAW suit is the
Pay Board's rejection last Jan.-5
of contracts containing a 12 per
cent first-year pay raise for .31,-
000 workers at three aerospace
firms.
The Pay Board said later it
would allow a raise of 34 or 35
cents in the first year and intends
to approve the rest if added to
the second year of the three year
contracts. Woodcock said work-
ers are receiving the approved
portion.
