YOUNG CONSERVATIVES will not work or vote for President
Nixon s re-election, says Ron Docksai, national chairman of the
Young Americans for Freedom.
Docksai, speaking in an interview yesterday, added that sup-
port for Alabama Gov. George Wallace is equally unlikely. He de-
scribed Wallace's views as too "reactionary" for most young con-
servatives.
"Most YAF people say they will work for local candidates or sit
out the election," said Docksai. "Nixon has completely disavowed
the 1968 GOP platform and every thing we thought he would do."
Of the Democratic presidential contenders, Docksai says Sens.
Henry Jackson of Washington and Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota
probably would be more acceptable than Nixon to young conservatives.
ABOUT 50 YOUNG PEOPLE stood on the steps of Michigan's
Capitol Wednesday aftersoon and smoked dope, and State Capitol
security police did not disturb or arrest the smokers.
The Michigan Supreme court last week ruled the state's present
law on marijuana possession and use unconstitutional until a new oney
takes effect April 1, and the state attorney general's office has advisedI
State Police not to make arrests for marijuana possession or use.
Some of those who took part in the public display said they want-;
ed to dramatize their belief that even the new, less stringent laws
which take effect April 1 should be changed.
One participant in the event said that it was for "anybody who!
wanted to get high."
REPEAL OF THE STATE'S constitutional ban on lotteries
will be placed on the May 16 ballot and voters will decide whe-
ther to give the legislature power to organize and run lotteries,
which might bring an estimated $25 million to $60 million in state
coffers.
Chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Sen. Charles
Zollar said, ". . . unless we have additional revenues it would be
impossible to balance the budget without painful cuts."
'State institutions and state aid for education" will receive
at least 3 per cent of the proceeds from the sale of lottery tickets and
shares.
Presently New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey andj
Pennsylvania operate lotteries.
THE PRICE COMMISSION has embarked on a program of
more restrictive controls.
Commission officials indicated Wednesday that action to tigthen
controls was being taken because the commission's anti-inflationary
goals may be difficult to reach under the current program.
Specifically, the commission reduced from 2.0 to 1.8 per cent
the maximum average price increase allowed over a 12-month
period to grant "tier one" companies that enter long-term price
j agreements with the commission.
The commission acted after studying reports on the impact onI
the consumer and wholesale price indexes of prices exempted from
controls.
The staff also assessed the relative impact of price increases by
the companies with sales of $50-million a year or more on the total
economy.

ITT probe continues
ITT President Harold Geneen went before the Senate Judiciary
Committee yesterday as the senators continued their probe into
governmental handling of an anti-trust suit against the con-
glomerate. Geneen testified that ITT's $200,000 commitment to
the Republican National Convention was "a damn good business
investment" for the Sheraton Hotel chain-an ITT subsidiary.

Abortion law
iberalization
re ommended
WASHINGTON UP) - The easing of laws restricting abor-
tion, sex education and fertility control has been advocated
by a presidential commission as a means of controlling Amer-
ica's population.
The Commission of Population Growth and the Ameri-
can Future in a report released yesterday, recommended that.
-Public and private health services should pay the full
cost of contraceptives, of, prenatal, delivery and first-year
pediatric care, and of voluntary sterilization, abortion and
medical treatment of infer-<

tility;
-States adopt laws which would
permit minors to receive contra-
ceptive and prophylactic informa-
tion and services;
-All restrictions on access to
voluntary contraceptive steriliza-
tion be eliminated; and
-Present state laws restrict-
ing abortion be liberalized to bl-
low them to be performed on re-
quest by duly licensed physicians
under conditions of medical safety.
The report's section on abortion
was attacked in advance if its is-
suance yesterday by the United
States Catholic Conference as
leading "into an ideological val-
ley of death." It also stirred dis-
sent among the 24-member com-
mission which includes four Ro-
man Catholics.
Dr. Paul Cornely added dissent-
ing statements to the report say-
ing, "Abortion in the opinion of
this commissioner is destruction
of human life since it kills the
fetus. Society through its laws has
a responsibility to protect all hu-
man life."
According to John Rockefeller
III, head of the commission,
"From the beginning, the over-
riding goal of the commission has
been the enrichment of human
life, not its restriction."
Research and training in t h e
basic science of reproduction alone
requires $100 million annually in
federal funds, the commission said,
and an additional $100 million
is needed for developing meth-
ods of fertility control.

Nixon's trip
to USSR set

PARIS P) -- The U n i t e d
States delegation to the Paris
peace talks put six demands to
the Vietnamese Communists
yesterday for liberalizing prison-
er of war conditions, but they
received no specific response.
The North Vietnamese delega-
tion said that if the United
States "responds seriously" to
the Communist peace plan,
American prisoners could return
home before Easter.
U.S. Ambassador William
Porter asked the Communists to
permit impartial inspection of
prisoner of war camps "in re-
turn for a firm undertaking by
both sides to refrain from ef-
forts to liberate prisoners from
the locations visited."
However, the North Vietnam-

ese have said they fear that if
even neutral inspectors- are per-
mitted into the camps, they
will provide the United States
with information permitting
new commando raids in an ef-
fort to free the prisoners.
Porter made additional de-
mands, all based on the Geneva
convention on war prisoners:
-Repatriation of the serious-
ly sick and wounded prisoners;
-Full information "on those
of our men whom you hold cap-
tive or known to be dead;"
-Regular information on
seriously sick and wounded pris-
oners;
-Permission for the prisoners
to correspond regularly with
their families.

By The Associated Press
The White House reported yes-
terday that President Nixon will
begin his week-long visit to Mos-.
cow on May 22.
This will be the first time that
an American president has gone
to the Soviet Union on an official
visit. However, Nixon was there
as vice president in 1959, when
he engaged in the famous "kit-
chen debate" with the late Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrushchev.
Accompanying Nixon May 22
will be a working delegation in-
cluding Secretary of State Wil-
liam Rogers and National Secur-
ity Adviser Henry Kissinger.
Rogers will go on from t h e
Soviet Union to a NATO foreign
ministers meeting in Bonn, on May
30-31, Ziegler said, but there was
"no 'plan, at least at this time,
for President Nixon to go there."
Nixon will meet with Leonid
Brezhnev, Nikolai Podgorny and
Alexei Kosygin, the three top lead-
ers of the Soviet Union, and ac-
cording to Press Secretary Ron-
ald Ziegler, Nixon "will review
all major issues with a, v i e w
toward further improving bilat-
eral relations and enhancing the
prospects for world peace."
Ziegler would not comhment on
whether there would be any
agreement reached on strategic
arms limitation.
