news briefs
THE CENSUS BUREAU has reported that the nation is rapid-
ly approaching zero population growth rates among younger
couples.
In a study, the bureau claimed that the average number of
childen expected by wives aged 18 to 24 dropped from 2.9 to 2.4
between 1967 and 1971. This is the sharpest decrease since 1955, when
the birth expectation statistics were first published. Applied to all
women in this age group, this could mean a fertility rate of 2.2 child-
ren.
Demographers cannot say whether lower fertility rates will con-
tinue until the year 2000. They warn that a population "bomb" re-
mains, since the trend could turn up again as quickly as it has turned
down.
A 1969 GRADUATE of the University of Pennsylvania has been
elected a trustee of that school.
Charles Krause, currently a graduate student at Princeton Uni-
versity is the first alumnus of Penn's undergraduate schools to be
elected a trustee.
Krause's election was made possible by provisions of a resolution
passed by the trustees last May.

FUNDAMENTALIST PREACHER CARL McINTIRE announc-
ed he will lead rallies and demonstrations in protest of President
Nixon's trip to China.
McIntire said Nixon "will sip tea with bandits, partake of the
dainties of mass murderers and exchange compliments with the slave
masters. He will contribute to the deception of millions."
McIntire said he plans to travel to 18 cities between Feb, 19 and
26.
GENERAL MOTORS was accused Wednesday of restraining
evidence of sofety defects in its Corvair automobiles during a
hearing of the Senate Commerce Committee.
The attorney for. a man allegedly injured due to carbon mon-
oxide fumes emanating from the car, testified that his client was
forced to turn over incriminating evidence as a condition of an out-
of-court settlement to a suit resulting from the injury.
This latest development is another in a long history of controversy
surrounding the rear-engined Corvair, manufactured between 19601
and 1969.

People's China
WASHINGTON () - President Nixon yesterday began his "jour-
ney for peace" to China - a mission he said he was undertaking
for all mankind in search of a common ground with the long-isolated
Asian Communist power.
Before he boarded the helicopter for the trip to Andrews Air
Force base and the waiting presidential jetliner, the Spirit of '76,
the President made a short speech. JIe stepped onto the South
Lawn of the White House, where spokesmen said 8,000 persons ringed
the area. Newsmen said the crowd was much smaller, estimating it

SAIGON (4') - U.S. warplanes ended two days of heavy raids'
yesterday against Soviet-supplied long-range artillery and antiaircraft
air defenses inside North Vietnam.
The command's preliminary reports indicated that five artillery
guns were destroyed or damaged in the raids and that the strikes
on the missile and antiaircraft sites also were successful.
The fear of American officials is that the big guns might be
used to furnish an artillery screen for large scale North Vietnamese
attacks across the DMZ, as they were for the invasion and capture
of the plain of Jars in Laos last December.

at 2,000 to 2,500.
In his brief remarks, Nixon cal-
led his statement of last July 15,
when he announced that a secret
summer mission to Peking by his
foreign affairs adviser, Henry Kis-
singer, had set up the unprece-
dented summit.
"That statement was, as you
will recall, that this would be a:
journey for peace," he said.
Nixon noted, too, a toast offer
ed by Chinese Premiere Chou En
Lai when Kissinger was in China.
"'The American people are aE
great people,' " he quoted Chou1
as saying. " 'The Chinese people'
are a great people. The fact that1
they arenseparated by a v a s t
ocean and great difference's in
philosophy should not prevent
them from . finding common
ground.'"l
Nixon said if his talks with Com-
munist leaders bring progress to-
ward finding that common ground
"the world will be a much safer
world." Motioning to the hun-
dreds of school children on the
lawn, Nixon added that he hoped1
"all those young children there"
would have a chance "to grow up
in a world of peace.-
Before turning to walk across a1
red carpet between a military
honor guard to the helicopter, the
chief executive said: "If there was
a postscript I hope might be writ-,
ten in regard to this trip, it would1
be the words on the plaque left,
on the moon by our first astro-
nauts when they landed there:
" 'We came in peace for a11
mankind.'"
A sizable crowd l7hed the fence
encirclingtherWhite House on the
south side and some were hold-
ing up large signs. One of thera
read: "Nixon's war is ;scalating;"

ed it will consider null and void

Laird shifts
stand on sub
Construetion
WASHINGTON (R) - Secretary
of Defense Melvin Laird depart-
ed from an earlier statement yes-
terday and said the United States
will abide by any limitations Im-
posed by arms negotiators on new
missile-firing submarines.
Previously he said the United
States intends to build the sub-
marines regardless of an arms
limitation agreement with Mos-
cow.
In an early-morning television
interview, Laird divorced the
strategic arms limitation t a l k s
(SALT) from the Pentagon's re-
quest for crash development of
the new undersea-launched mis-
sile system (ULMS).
"I do not assicoate the ULMS
request with the SALT talks or
the arms limitation agreement,"
the secretary said on the NBC
Today Show. "This is a replace-
ment submarine, a follow-on sub-
marine, that's absolutely Essen-
tial if we are going to stay up
with the momentum of the Joviet
Union."
But later, meeting with report-
ers on Capitol Hill, Laird sai,
"If there are limitations. . . ar-
rivedsat through the negotiating
process, those limitations will, be
abided by."
Laird shifted his position after
speaking briefly with President
Nixon on the White House lawn
as the President was leaving on
his China trip. What they dis-
cussed was not determined, but
shortly afterward Laird qualified
his earlier remarks on ULMS.
Nixon's position has been that
he would not hesitate to order a
new round of U.S. strategic wea-
pons into production if the SALT
talks are protracted while t h e
Soviets continue to expand their
land-and-sea-based missile forces.
Defense officials have a'so indi-
cated that the decision to push
ahead faster on ULMS was a
signal to the Soviets to come to
an agreement at SALT.

WASHINGTON (A') - Business
economists predict that big fed-
eral deficits and easy money
will thwart President Nixon's
effort to reduce inflation to a
2 to 3 per cent rate this year.
A consensus report from. 20
economists representingrmajor
industries was delivered yester-
day to nearly 100 top industrial-
ists at a closed meeting of the
Business Council with Phase 2
officials.
A summary of the panel's
forecast, released to newsmen,
said a majority of the econo-
mists "voice strong concern
about the continued stimulation
of the economy resulting from
monetary and fiscal policy and
the effect this may have in
the form of more rapid inflation

this year and in 1973."
The industry experts foresaw
"a strong economy through 1972
and into 1973" but anticipated
a growth of inflation across the
economy averaging 3 to 4 per
cent.
That matched the 3.5 per cent
inflation forecast issued W e d -
nesday by economists of the Na-
tional Planning Association, ex-
cept that NPA said inflation
could not be held even to that
rate unless "the administration
succeeds in making the Phase
2 price and wage controls more
effective."
The NPA report went on:
"This will require marked im-
provements in the performance
of the Price Commission, whose

actions to date have certainly
not been consistent with its an-
nounced target of 2.5 per cent
or even the 3.5 per cent infla-
tion rate projected here." }
The NPA is a privately sup-
portedmresearch organization
with . members from industry, la-I
bor and education.
Price Commission chairman C.
Jackson Grayson and Pay Board
chairman George Boldt addres-
sed the Business Council session
at which the report of the panel
of economists was presented.
A Pay Board spokesman said
Boldt told the industry group he
remains highly optimistic that
the controls will bring the infla-
tion rate down to the target
range.
Boldt said the economy needs
"a substantial and continuing
increase in productivity," ac-
cording to the spokesman, and
predicted that this alone would
"go a long way toward stem-
ming inflation and speeding the
day when controls are not need-
ed."

report.
The massive, air strikes came as
President Nixon prepared to de-
part on his journey to China "for
peace," and were the heaviest
since last December.
The U.S. command maintained
the air strikes were "in accord-
ance with our repeatedly announc-
ed determination to protect Amer-
ican lives as thousands of addi-
tional U.S. forces are being with-
drawn from Vietnam."
Many observers, however, saw
the air campaign as an attempt
to squash any possible N o r t h
(Vietnamese offensive which, if
successful could prove embarras-
sing to the President in his talks
with Chinese leaders.
In a related development, the
Navy announced in San Diego that
the carrier Kitty Hawk with 80,
planes was heading for Vietnam
a month ahead of schedule. The
7th Fleet already has three car-
riers in Vietnamese waters.
