The North Vietnamese and Viet Cong delegations said they would return next Thursday, March 2.

CURBING HEROIN TRAFFIC by halting the growing of opium poppies around the world was called unrealistic by federal aide Myles Ambrose, who considered it "one of those magic-{ wand statements born of ignorance."j The statement was a response to Police Commissioner Patrick Murphy who told the National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse that the government should be "damming or diverting" the floodtide of poppy fields from the Orient. UNSCRUPULOUS PRIVATE CEMETERIES who are offering free graves to veterans as part of expensive burial packages, us- ually charge more in the long run, according to a report released today to a Senate committee. The veteran who signs the agreement usually pays " increased prices for other items and services, and is often persuaded to buy costly family plots, the report said. The findings were presented to the Veterans Affairs CommitteeE by a group of five George Washington University law students who call themselves "The Dead Giveaway". SEX-RELATED HORMONES, genetically or accidentally in excess during pre-natal life, may increase significantly the intelli- gence of a child, according to medical studies performed by Dr. John Money. Money said the still inconclusive findings, if confirmed by further research, could help explain why some men and women are mentally superior to others and why others are born mentally deficient. "Whereas in an ordinary population 2.2 per cent have an IQ of 130 or higher, 12.9 per cent of this group fell into this range," according to Money, who also reported 60.1 per cent had an IQ of 110 and above as compared to 25 per cent in the ordinary population.

Xuan Thuy, leader of the said in yesterday's session: "The escalation of the air war during recent days has further laid bare the fallacious character of the Nixon administration's talks of peace and its obstinate and bellicose attitude." Conference sources saw the walkout as a demonstration of North Vietnam's independence to- ward any bargaining over the Vietnam war that might take place between President Nixon and Premier Chou En-lai in China. North Vietnamese spokesman Nguyen Thanh Le bitterly assail- ed Nixon's dinner toast in Peking Monday, saying his talk of peace "was remarkable by its hypoc- risy." If Nixon wants peace in Vietnam, Le said, "he must re- spond positively to our peace pro- posals here in Paris." Le recalled that the President said he was thinking of "all the children in the world" and won- dered "what legacy" will be left to them.

North Vietnamese delegation, Court bears wiretapping arguments WASHINGTON (R) - The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments yesterday from both supporters and opponents of government electronic eavesdropping of do- mestic groups without prior court approval. Justice Department lawyer Ro- bert Mardian, defending govern- ment policy, said that the gov- ernment must use electronic sur- veillance if it is to stay informed of its enemy's activities. "The constitution is not a sui- cide pact,'-' he said. "The Presi- dent can't wait until the nation is facing armed insurrection before he starts to gather counter intelli- gence." Attorney Arthur Kinoy, repre- senting those seeking to outlaw the surveillance, claimed that "the power which the attorney genet- al seeks here would legitimize a wide-spread dragnet of political opposition." Kinoy said that the Justice De- partment's position would "erase the Fourth Amendment from the domestic life of this country" and lead to a "stifling of the political freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment." The case before the high court involves government wiretapping of a conversation involving Law- rence "Pun" Plamondon, a White Panther accused of bombing a Central Intelligence Agency office in, Ann Arbor. ...:.. .....
