By The Associated Press
THE NIXON ADMINISTRATION earmarked $200 million
yesterday to help hire the jobless in public service occupations.
The funds, available under a recently passed emergency employ-
ment law, go mainly to cities and counties that have had 6 per cent
or more unemployment for three recent months.
The public-service job act, signed. into law in August, provides
$1 billion and has as its ultimate aim the employment of 150,000 in
jobs dealing with environmental protection, health, education, public
safety, housing and rural development.

THE JUDGE in the court-martial of Capt. Ernest Medina
will present to the jury today instructions that contain scaled-j
down charges against the officer.
The judge said he will instruct the jury that the captain may
be convicted of no more than involuntary manslaughter in the deaths
of 100 My Lai villagers.
The case went to trial Aug. 16 with Medina accused of pre-
meditated murder in the death of 100.
THE ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION has postponed for
at least three weeks a controversial five-megaton blast, Sen. Mike
Gravel (D-Alaska) said yesterday.
A spokesman for the senator said the laying off of workers at the"
Amchitka atomic test site in Alaska's Aleutian Islands, could be an in-
dication that the administration wants to postpone the controversial'
test.'
Japan has expressed concern over the tests, as have Canada and
conservationists in Alaska and other states.
CAPT. HUGH THOMPSON JR., a helicopter pilot, yesterday
described the scene at My Lai, but was unable to identify Col.
Oran Henderson as the field investigator to whom he gave a simi-
lar eyewitness account.
Thompson, whose report on the massacre led to an order to in-'
vestigate, was the second key prosecution witness who failed to iden-
tify Henderson as the recipient of first-hand atrocity reports.
The government contends Henderson lied to a Pentagon inquiry
in Feb. 1970 when he said he did not recall interviewing aviators
within 48 hours of the My Lai assault.
Thompson's inability to say he gave Henderson a report was the
second setback for prosecution efforts.

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (M
- The seating of the People's
Republic of China, as a U.N.
member is a top item, but the
Middle East still is likely to
be the most critical issue be-
fore the 26th annual session
of the General Assembly open-
ing today.
Another task before the dele-
gates is the search for a succes-
sor to Secretary-General U Thant,
who is retiring Dec. 31 after a
decade in the post.
The first show of strength on
the China question will c o m e
either late tomorrow or e a r 1y
Thursday when the assembly
hands over to its steering com-
mittee the allocation of th e
items on its agenda.
Two items subscribed on t h e
agenda - .one submitted by t h e
United States, the other by Al-
bania - will bring the first indi,
cation of assembly feeling on the
China issue.
The United States seeks to seat
Peking in the United Nations while
insisting on a two-thirds vote, as
an "important question," on the
expulsion of Nationalist China.
The U.S. stand also provides for
Taiwan's Security Council seat
being given to Peking.
Albania's resolution calls for
t the admission of The People's Re-
public of China and the expulsion
of Taiwan.
Also attracting attention will
be the talks behind the scenes
here between Secretary of State
William Rogers and Foreign Min-
ister Andrei Gromyko of the Sov
iet Union.

LONDON (P)-British officials
are reported convinced that the
situation in Northern Ireland is
near a breaking point and a po-
litical solution to years of tur-
moil is urgently needed.
The clear but unspoken impli-
cation in their thinking was that

Republican Army are at this mo-

ONLY CANDIDATE
Thieu states re-election terms
ment winning their war of snip-
ing sabotage and bombing.
This war, aimed at the down-
fall of the province's Protestant-
based government, has in this year
alone cost 75 deaths, 24 of them
soldiers. and uncounted economic
damages.
This judgment on the continu-
ing strife in Northern Ireland
came as the British government
neared two testing political con-
frontations.
First is an emergency debate in
the House of Commons, scheduled
for tomorrow and Thursday.
Prime Minister Edward Heath's
handling of the issue is certain to
come under attack from opposition
leader Harold Wilson, who char-
ges the British army has become
the unwilling tool of Northern Ire-
land's Protestants against the
Roman Catholic minority.
Second is a three-way sum-
mit meeting next Monday and
Tuesday bringing Heath to private
talks with Prime Ministers Brian
Faulkner of Northern Ireland and
Jack Lynch of the Irish Republic.
Faulkner already has said one
issue will not be discussed - and
that is Northern Ireland's role as
an integral part of the United
Kingdom.
The British go along with that
but say they are ready to discuss
"constitutional ar-
rangements" within Northern Ire-
land's present borders.

SAIGON ( P) - President
Nguyen Van Thieu, told South
Vietnam's voters last night how
they could vote against him in
the presidential election.
But at the same time he ap-
pealed for a clear-cut vote of
confidence and implied he might
resign if he did not get sub-
stantially more than 50 per cent
of the vote.
Thieu is the only candidate in
the election.
He said a person could vote
against him by tearing his bal-
lot in half, marking an 'X' across
the ballot or placing an empty
envelope in the ballot box.
In a 45-minute national radio
broadcast, the second speech of
his re-election campaign, Thieu
said the election had "special
meaning" because he is the only
candidate, and added that his
majority must be "very clear"
for him to remain in office.
Thieu also called for the ulti-
mate defeat of North Vietnam
through military strength and
political solidarity.
Terming coalition government
"a dirty trick of the Commun-
ists," he said: "When the North
withdraws its troops, there will
be immediate peace. We do not
ask them anything - no neu-
trality or coalition in the North
- so they have no right to de-
mand anything of us."
Thieu reiterated his "four
no's" - no coalition, no neu-
trality, no concession of land to
the Communists, and no 1 e g a l
Communist party in S o u t h
Vietnam.
In his first campaign speech,
Thieu had said he would step
down if he received fewer than
50 per cent of the votes actually
cast on Oct. 3.
But in a closed meeting with
some 400 political supporters
last Wednesday, he indicated he
might resign if he received less
than 60 per cent of the vote,
and expressed confidence he
might win by as much as an 80
per cent majority.
