A FORMER BLACK PANTHER was shot and killed by police
Saturday night in Denver after he reportedly stabbed threej
women, knocked down one officer with a panel truck and fired
on the officers.
He was identified as James Young.
In Houston on Saturday a Black Panther member was also shot
by police.
Two policemen reported that they saw John Coward walking
down the street with a rifle under his coat. Coward opened fire on
them they said and they shot him while he was trying to reload.I
THE CHILEAN GOVERNMENT ruled yesterday that Cerro
Corp. will receive $18.3 million compensation for it nationalized
copper holdings, but that the two other American copper com-
panies operating here owe the state more than their property {
is worth.
The ruling by Comptroller General Hector Humeres claimed Ana-
conda Co. and Kennecott Copper Corp. have a net liability to the
government $378.5 million because of "excess profits" and allegedr
damage to mine installations and equipment.
President Salvador Allende's leftist government acknowledged'
earlier that, since Cerro's Rio Blanco mine in central Chile began
producing only this year, no question of excess profits was involved.
Chile nationalized the copper industry in July.
PRESIDENT Anwar Sadat of Egypt flew into Moscow yes-
terday to decide - with the Kremlin's help - on a response to
a new U.S. Middle East Peace proposal.
It; has been believed that Sadat is shopping for more military
hardware to counter a possible U.S. decision to resume arms ship-
ments to Israel.
THE NIXON ADMINISTRATION wants to overhaul the na-
tion's $750 million school-lunch program which one Agriculture
Department official says is threatening to become a nationalized
meal service for all children, regardless of need.
Approximately eight per cent of the 7.3 million children getting
reduced-price lunches last year-some 584,000 children-were from
families above the poverty line.
All lunches, including those served the needy, get a federal con-
tribution of five cents plus seven or eight cents in the form of do-
nated commodities.
AN ENGLISH CLERK from the British Embassy was arrested
in Aeilgrs and charged with passing on secrets.
Leonard Hinchliffe, 39, was seized by Special Branch security
agents in London shortly before midnight Sunday.
Hinchliffe was the fourth person charged under Britians Official
Secrets Acts since Britian expellod 105 alleged Soviet spies.
NEARLY 10,000 MOSCOW JEWS jammed the street in front
of the central synagogue last night to sing, dance and gossip as
they celebrated the Jewish holiday Simchat Torah.
The people crammed into Arkhipov Street from one end to the
other said this was the biggest holiday gathering of Soviet Jews
they could remember.
Discussion centered around emigration to Israel and some of the
young people were bold enough to wear pins with Israeli flags on,
them.

ICP's most ambitious project thus far
has been a three-man excursion to the
Paris peace negotiations in the spring of
this year. The ICP group met with all four
negotiating parties.
The ICP trio talked with ambassadors
from North Vietnam and the National
Liberation Front for several days and re-
ceived a cordial reception, according to
Bailey.
Onthe other hand, Bailey remarks that
the South Vietnamese representatives were
reluctant to discuss the war in depth, and
that the American delegation was the
"most dispiriting" of all - consisting of
"seasoned diplomats" who held little com-
passion for peasantry and who advised the
visitors to go to Washington if they were
interested in changing U.S. foreign pol-
icy.
In another political action, the ICP
helped organize the first national Clergy
and Laity Concerned (CALC) conference
held here this summer. CALC is a 37,000
member national organization working in
conjunction with regional groups such as
ICP, to help organize political and social
actions.

member AFL-CIO and the heads of the two largestv independent

to decide whether to participate in President Nixon's Phase 2 eco-

A spokesman for the AFL-CIO said there had been no efforts by
administration officials to contact federation President George Meany
to patch up a dispute over how the post-freeze program will operate.
At the White House, spokesmen said Nixon worked in his office
at the nearby Executive Office Building, but refused to say on what.

TAFT-HARTLEY INVOKED
Dock, coal strikes continue across nation

By The Associated Press
Los Angeles area piers re-
mained shut down yesterday,
while the rest of the W e s t
Coist throbbed with activity af-
ter a 14-week longshoremen's
strike was interrupted over the
weekend as a result of a Taft
Hartley back-to-work order.
Cargo remained piled up three
times higher than a, man's head,
while efforts were made to set-
tle a fresh dispute involving 11
striking members of the 15,000
man International Longshore-
men's and Warehousemen's Un-

ion (ILWU). They refused to
accept dock assignments f or
which they were singled out by
name.
On the East and Gulf coast,
a walkout of 45,000 dockers con-
tinued for an 11th day, with
no negotiations scheduled. The
striking AFL-CIO International
Longshoremen's Association con-
tinued to be plagued by a re-
volt of Texas dockers, as most
of them ignored strike orders
and continued to work the West
Gulf piers.

sion fund.
"They're not close to agree-

deadlock involved the refusal
of 11 key men, known as "steady
men," to prepare fork lifts,
cranes and other pier equip-
ment which must function pro-
perly before 'longshoremen can
handle ships.
The Pacific Maritime Associa-
tion on Saturday requested the
11 by name, and their right to
specify whom they wanted was
upheld by an arbitrator. The
ILWU said the 11 refused to
accept the jobs because they
felt available work should be
shared equitably among quali-
fied dockers.
Ship sailings were resumed
from the San Francisco-Oak-
land area, where 1,000 long-
shoremen - about 10 times the
normal number - worked
through the weekend on 26 ves-
sels.
Prior to last week's applica-
tion of Taft-Hartley with its 80
day cooling off provision, t h e
MLWU was deadlocked with
West Coast shipping firms over
jurisdiction of off-dock contain-
ers, a guaranteed work week and
wages and benefits. The walk-
out began July 1 and losses were
estimated at $1.7 billion.

The White House has said that
the Pay Board, as well as a seven
member Price Commission, would
be semiautonomous bodies. While
their individual pay and price de-
cisions would be final, the Cost of
Living Council could step in if
the wage-price criteria they de-
veloped got out of line with the
administration's goals.
Meany, who has been critical
of the wage - price freeze, has
urged an autonomous Pay Board.
As the labor leaders pondered
their decision,- consumer advo-
cate Ralp Nader, who was ex-
cluded from White House consum-
er consultations on Phase 2. told
a Senate subcommittee Nixon's
post freeze program undermines
the Constitution.
"Any strict constructionist judge
wouldn't take any more than 14
minutes to dispose of these pro-
grams on a constitutional basis,"
Nader said. "This all wraps up as
a rape that makes the executive
expansion under the New Deal
look like a picnic," he said.

]bombs Mairk
beginning .,of
Agnew's visit
ANKARA (A)M Bombs hurled
at twoAmerican targets marked
the beginning yesterday of Vice
President Spiro Agnew's 1I3-day
mission to Turkey, ; Iran_ and
Greece. The tombs exploded in
Istanbul, 20 miles northwest of
here, a few hours before Agnew's
plane landed.
U.S. officials in Istanbul said
an attempt was made to throw
a bomb over the fence of the U.S.
Consulate General grounds, but
the device fell short and exploded,
causing no damage. The second
bomb blew up the car of Kenton
Keith, a U.S. cultural attache.
The Consulate was closed for
Columbus Day. Turkey's martial
law government ordered the na-
tion's press to print no stories of
the explosions.
The vice president said in an
arrival statement that the U.S.
commitment to the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization - of which
Turkey is a- member -"Stands on
a foundation of bedrock."
Agnew was met at the airport
by Premier Nihat Erim. They rode
the 20 miles into the city along a
highway cleared of other traffic
and lined by clusters of Turks.
Agnew told Erim that "the link
our two countries have shared in
Nato for more than a decade re-
mains vital, not-only to our mu-
tual security but also to the peace
of the world."
On the flight from Washington,
the vice president voiced opposi-
tion to any congressional ban on
military aid to Greece, the last
and longest stop on his current
trip.
