A PUBLIC HEARING on police corruption has resulted in
the indictments of 10 present or former New York City cops
on charges of taking payoffs from gamblers or providing dope to
narcotics addicts.
Eight of the defendants were charged by a Newark, N.J., federal
grand jury with accepting bribes to protect the Bronx operation of an
$8 million a year numbers racket headquartered in New Jersey.
A Manhattan federal grand jury indicted two narcotics patrol-
men who were said to have given heroin seized in police raids to ad-
dicts in exchange for liquor and a power saw.
PRESIDENT NIXON'S nominees to the Supreme Court,
Lewis Powell Jr. and William Rehnquist, have received today the
American Bar Association's Federal Judiciary Committee's ap-
proval of their qualifications for the bench.
In reports submitted at the opening of the Senate JudiciaryI
Committee hearings the 12-member ABA Committee said both Powell
and Rehnquist are among "the best persons available for appoint-
ment".
Democratic liberals on the Senate committee plan extensive
questioning of both nominees. So far, however, none of the com-
-mittee members has . taken a stand against confirmation of either
nomination.

WASHINGTON (I? - The Nixon administration and
Senate advocates of a revamped, reduced foreign aid pro-
gram remained deadlocked yesterday after a two hour ap-
pearance by Secretary of State William Rogers before the
Foreign Relations Committee.
Rogers made clear following the session that the admin-
istration still wants an extension until next June of the
program, defeated last week in the Senate, at about current
levels. But Senate critics restated their determination to
force sharp cuts and changes.
Senate committee members said-- -

TREASURY SECRETARY CONNALLY said yesterday that
termination of U. S. foreign aid would be disastrous to American-
efforts in Southeast Asia.
"All that we have done since World War II, particularly all we've
done for the last 10 years, would substantially go down the drain,"
he told a breakfast meeting of the American Chamber of Commerce
in Bangkok.
Connally assured the group the Nixon administration would "do
everything we humanly can" to revive the foreign aid bill killed by
the Senate.

INCIDENTS INCREASE

Rehnquist testifies
on wiretaps, rights
WASHINGTON (P) - Supreme Court nominee William Rehn-
quist testified yesterday that government eavesdropping is proper
only to solve or prevent crime-not to stifle dissent.
Appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, he said wire-
tapping is limited by the Constitution and that the primary purpose
of the Bill of Rights is to "put restraints on the government."
Rehnquist, assistant attorney general in the Nixon administration,
criticized the firing on student demonstrators at Kent State in Ohio,
calling it a "misguided and unwarranted misuse of force."
Rehnquist's views on these points were drawn out by Sens. Philip
Hart, (D-Mich.), and Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.), critics of many of
--- - <---he policies of the Nixon admin-

the panel would likely approve
within a week an aid bill which
will be at least one billion dollars
below the adminisiration's $3.5
billion request to replace the mea-
sure beaten in the Senate 1 a s t
Friday.
But in the House, Appropria-
tions Committee Chairman George
Mahon said he was introducing a
resolution to continue foreign aid
and other unfunded federal pro-
grams until Congress' adjournment
which he said he expects in about
a month.
Sen. Gale McGee (D-Wyo.) told
reporters Rogers had indicated
willingness to accept an interim,
'bare bones aid. bill pending fur-
ther review of the program next
year. Sen. John Sherman Cooper
(R-Ky.) asked if the administra-
tion would accept.a bill with sharp
guts, said "I thinktthey would.
L think they'll have to."
But Rogers himself told news-
men the administration wants thE
aid program extended until next
June 30 "at about its present lev-
el."
That is about $3.1 billion, com-
pared with $3.5 billion sought this
year, $3.4 billion voted by t h e
House and $2.9 billion in the re-
jected Senate measure.
Rogers did make at least o n e
concessipn to the committee by
agreeing to accept a $341 mil-
lion spending limit and other re-
strictions on U.S. activities in
Cambodia.
He indicated also willingness to
iiscuss the limits of U.S. involve-
ment in Indochina in light of the
diose Senate vote to remove from
the aid bill an amendment cutting
off funds for all U.S. actions ex-
cept withdrawal, members said.
Fulbright, and Sens. Stuart Sy-
mington (D-Mo.) and Frank
Church (D-Idaho) saw little in
what Rogers said that would in-
dicate a relaxation of the admin-
istration position.
"I detect very little disposition
to give anything at this point,"
Fulbright said.
"I don't think we're getting very
far," Symington said.

Laird visits
Saigon; troop
cuts expected
SAIGON () - Secretary of
Defense Melvin Laird arrived in
Saigon last night to assemble in-
formation for President Nixon's
next announcement on troop cuts.
Speculation is that the U.S. force
will be trimmed to 40,000 men by
July.
Laird told newsmen in Saigon
that U.S. battle deaths in Viet-
nam last week were the lowest
since the United States assumed a
majorcombat role in March 1965.
Records show that three Ameri-
cans were killed at least one week
since March, 1965.
In the first three weeks of this
past October, the U.S. combat
deaths have been fewer than eight
a week. Laird said 196 Americans
were killed the week before Nixon
took office in January 1969.
Laird said the low number of
American casualties is largely due
to efforts by Gen. Creighton Ab-
rams, U.S. commander in Viet-
nam, to modernize the South Viet-
namese armed forces, and assump-
tion of a greater share of the
fighting by Saigon forces.
The defense secretary, here for
a three-day visit, went into con-
sultations with Abrams and U.S.
Ambassador Ellsworth B u n k e r
shortly after he arrived.
He told newsmen he would make
a personal report to President
Nixon, and that on or about Nov.
15 the President would make a
statement on the progress of Viet-
namization, and on "the prospects
for peace as far as the negotiat-
ing route in Paris is concerned."
The strongest speculation is that
Nixon will announce that he is
reducing U.S. forces in Vietnam to
a residual force of 40,000 by July
1.
There is also speculation t h a t
Nixon will reduce the U.S. Com-
mand to an advisory group and
bring Abrams home to be the
Army's chief of staff.
Sources said that Nixon hopes
to have thousands of troops home
in time for Christmas. The sources
reported that many men who were
not expected to be sent home un-
til early next year would have
their departure dates moved up.

Pakistani warplanes fly over India

NEW DELHI, India ()-Four
Pakistani warplanes flew into
India's air space but were driv-
en off by Indian jets, an Indian
government spokesman said yes-
terday. He also accused the Pak-
istanis of hostile action on the
ground along the borders.
The spokesman did not say
how the Indians drove off the
Pakistanis or whether jets of
either side had used their arma-
ment.
He said the Pakistani planes,
in flights of two, flew over In-
dian territory Tuesday afternoon

in the Punjab sector. It marked
the first time the government
has reported violations over
Punjab.
The government also charged
the Pakistanis with three cease-
fire violations on Sunday and
Monday along the Kashmir bor-
der. These were reported to
U.N. observers in the area, the
spokesman said.
He also reported a number of
incidents along India's western
border, including the derailing
of a passenger train by a mine
in West Bengal state Monday.

The incident resulted in the in-
juring of 26 people, the spokes-
man said.
The same day, a bomb ex-
ploded in a movie theater in a
small West Bengal town, kill-
ing four persons and wounding
46, several of them critically,
the spokesman said.
Six Pakistani saboteurs, he
said, surrendered to Indian for-
ces on Saturday along the West
Bengal border. The agents were
carrying mines, hand grenades
and a wirecutter.

istration. Rehnquist had a role in
formulating the government's po-
sition on wiretapping and other
sensitive issues as head of the
Justice Department's office of
legal counsel.
Hart then asked the nominee
whether any Supreme Court jus-
tice could hope to interpret the
Constitution without some refer-
ence to his individual attitudes.
Rehnquist replied: "I've lived
for 47 years and that goes with!
me." But he added that he would
try to divorce his views while
seeking out the intentions of the
framers of the Constitution.
As he appeared at the confirma-
tion hearing, he and Presidient
Nixon's other nominee for the
Supreme Court, Lewis Powell Jr.
were rated highly qualified by the
American Bar Association.

JEAN-PIERRE CARGOL and FRANCOIS TRUFFAUT in TRUFFAUT'S

THE

"The Wild Child restores Truffaut to
the pantheon of contemporary direc-
tors. He generated the idea for this
film; he wrote its script; he directed it;
' and he plays one of the leading roles.
The panache with which he executed
these varied tasks proves his skills are
intact.
"The Wild Child is a film to ponder
and relish. In a strict sense it is not an
entertaining picture-that phrase seems

throat suggested it had been cut.
"He was obviously too unique a freak
to be contained in the provinces and he
was sent to Paris and publicly exhibited.
Eventually the bureaucrats concluded
he was hopeless; pronounced him deaf
and dumb and demented; and decided to
send him to an asylum for deranged
children. But a certain Dr. Itard was not
so sure. He was, apart from his calling'

"Truffaut plays the doctor with skill
and perception. Francoise Seigner is
equally expert as the housekeeper. The
child is played by Jean-Pierre Cargol,

direction are amazing.
