GEORGE McGOVERN (D-S.D.) yesterday was trapped for a half hour in a Saigon church where he was meeting with anti-government dissidents, as demonstrators outside hurled stones and firebombs. The senator is on a three-day visit of South Vietnam. The attack on the church closed a day of anti-American demonstration and violence in Saigon and in the old imperial capital of Hue in northern South Vietnam.{ THE ALABAMA SENATE FINANCE COMMITTEE voted yesterday to give Gov. George Wallace the power to withhold state funds allocated to the schools for bus transportation. Wal- lace had sought the power last month to reinforce his campaign against court-ordered busing. The measure was written into the proposed education appropria- tion bill which allots $940 million for all phases of education for the next two fiscal years. REPUBLICAN GOVERNORS at the National Governors Con- ference charged the Democrats with partisanship yesterday and made it clear they will block approval of a Democratic alternative to the Nixon administration's economic programs. "We simply deplore that the Democratic governors seek to use this bipartisan conference to take what appears to be a rather nar-! row, partisan political approach," Republican Gov. John Love of' Colorado told a news conference. Democratic governors outnumber Republicans by a narrow mar- gin, but they require a three-fourths vote to bring the economics proposal before the conference. THE ARMY, after failing to persuade drug-addicted soldiers to seek treatment prior to discharge, will henceforth make such treatment mandatory, an administration spokesman said yester- day. Dr. Jerome Jaffee, director of President Nixon's special drug- abuse prevention program, announced this in testimony before a' Senate Veterans' Affairs subcommittee. Among other things, Jaf- fee's program includes pre-discharge drug-addiction tests for all servicemen leaving Vietnam. SEN. J. W. FULBRIGHT (D-Ark.) said yesterday the Foreign Relations Committee which he heads will report out a foreign aid bill even though it has not received all the information it asked for from the administration. "The committee will act on the whole bill at some point," Ful- bright told newsmen. But he said "I feel very sorry the administra- tion is not more cooperative in making information available." Earlier President Nixon invoked executive privilege in directing the Pentagon not to supply the committee with what the committee termed a report projecting the military aid program for the next five years. THE COST OF LIVING COUNCIL cleared the way yester- day for companies to declare extra year-end dividends without violating President Nixon's request to hold the line on dividends. The council said companies may increase year-end dividends if they have done so in each of the past three years, but the dividend must not exceed those declared last year. detention law WASHINGTON (R) - The House voted 356-49 yesterday to repeal a 1950 law establishing detention centers for sus- pected subversives and to prohibit their reestablishment without the consent of Congress. The bill, which must still be acted on by the Senate, would repeal a law that has never been invoked but which has led to widespread fears that it would be used to imprison holders of unpopular beliefs. The Nixon administration supported repeal of the act in order to.quiet such fears, although it said they were totally House repeals -Associated Press No contest Two Vietnamese girls stop on a Saigon street recent to read a campaign poster urging the election of unopposed candidates President Nguyen Van Thieu and his running mate, Tran Van Huong, in the presidential election of Oct. 3. CRIMINAL CASES: Justice Dept. endorses maj0ority conviction law unfounded. Passage of the repeal bill followed two days of emotion- al debate in which members re- called the imprisonment .of 112,- 000 Japanese - Americans living on the West Coast at the outbreak of World War II on the grounds they might try to help Japan. There were frequent references to the event as being one of the most shameful in American his- tory. Rep. Spark M. Matsunaga, (D-Hawaii), some of whose rela- tives were among those imprison- ed, was the chief sponsor of the repeal bill. It was to prevent the recurrence of such a mass roundup that the House added a provision to the re- peal bill prohibiting the establish- ment of detention centers without congressional approval. The de- tention of the Japanese-Ameri- cans was ordered by President Franklin D. Roosevelt under his executive powers. The 1950 act was the product of Congressional fears of a world- wide Communist conspiracy after the outbreak of the Korean war. It was passed over President Har- ry Truman's veto. Before voting to repeal the act, the House decisively defeated two amendments from its Internal Security Committee designed to preserve the act in amended form and to permit detention centers to be set up without congressional approval. Rep. Richard H. Ichord (D- Mo.), chairman of the Internal Security Committee, accused the supporters of repeal of "trying to legislate on unfounded fears, not facts and logic.' And Rep. John J. Flynt Jr. (D-Ga.), who supported Ichord, said the 1950 act was like fire or casualty insurance. "It is bet- ter to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it," Flynt said. ,c.,, or Federico FeIlni Podced by Eio Scardamaglia "n Ugo C--enss:onw y Federico Feiki ow~ ,eeffagdino Zapponi m16 c by Nino Rota A AAI.

It was pro- posed along with plans to re- strict defendants' legal maneu- verings - suggestions aimed at recent Supreme Court rulings. Another major suggestion was a measure aimed at banning appeals based on constitutional questions having no bearing on the defendant's guilt or ino- cence. Asst. Atty. Gen. William Rehnquist, appearing before the Senate subcommittee on consti- tutional rights, suggested that a jury vote of 10-2 or 9-3 be con- sidered enough for conviction. The Supreme Court will hear arguments Oct. 19 on the use of nonunanimous votes in state criminal trials. Rehnquist proposed also mod- ifying all or part of the rule which now prevents the use against a criminal defendant of evidence which is found to have been obtained in violation of his constitutional rights. He said the rules on habeas corpus should be changed to prevent appeals "which not on- ly have nothing to do with the guilt or innocence of the de- fendant but nothing to do with the underlying fairness of the factfinding process by which he was found guilty." He said the number of habeas corpus petitions filed annually had jumped from 500 only 20 years ago to almost 11,000 last year. Rehnquist said the de- partment's proposed legislation would permit defendants to ap- peal on grounds that their con- fession was forced by police, that juries were under mob domination, and that they were not allowed counsel. Lairdpush for draft law begins, WASHINGTON (/P) - Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird said yes- terday readiness of the Armed Forces will "decline to levels to- tally unacceptable . . . to the American people" if Congress fails to renew the draft. Laird's comment, issued by a Pentagon spokesman, signaled the start of an intensified Defense Department campaign to push for the renewal of the Selective Ser- vice Act, tied up in Congress over various amendments. Jerry W. Friedheim, a Defense Department spokesman, said the three civilian service secretaries and the heads of the military services were scheduled to meet later in the day at the Capitol with Sen. John C. Stennis, D- Miss., chairman of the Armed Services Committee, and Sen. Margaret Chase Smith of Maine, the senior Republican member. In a statement issued by Fried- ham, Laird was quoted as being "deeply concerned about the dan- gerous national security situation which will arise by early next year" if Congress fails to act now. Friedham said that voluntary enlistments, now running as much as 40 to 60 per cent without the draft. He attributed the increase in enlistments during the sum- mer months as being mostly draft induced even though induction au- thirity expired with the old draft law June 30. The Senate took up the draft law again Monday but it contin- ued to remain stalled amid threats from several antiwar Senators to filibuster against deletion from the bill of an amendment calling for total withdrawal of American troops from Vietnam.
