PRESIDENT FERDINAND .E. MARCOS of the Philippines,
is expectd to announce a new policy toward the Communist bloc
in his State of the Nation address Monday.
Leftist students have called for a rally outside Congress at +
the same time. The scheduling of the rally has made Manila tense t ."
because of the possibility of a violent confrontation between demon-
strators and police. Students hurled bottles and stones at Marcos as
he and his wife emerged from Congress after the State of the Nation
address last year.-
In view of last year's violence, 50 schools around the Congress
area have suspended classes for Monday to "avoid injury and vio-
lence to students," the Department of Education said. Police are also
guarding all American oil firms and hunting suspects who hurled fire
bombs or set off dynamite at the headquarters of the Esso and k
Caltex companies, killing one man. i

- President Nixon's broad proposals for Cabinet over-
haul and revenue sharing face a long, hard struggle in Con-
gress with slim chance of success. Prospects seem brighter for
some sort of welfare reform and health care legislation.
The President's six-point program presented in Friday
night's State of the Union speech continued to receive muted
responses yesterday from many Democrats, praising the gen-
eral goals while awaiting specifics.
But it seems clear that his proposal to combine seven
existing domestic departments - plus related independent

AN OIL TANKER ran aground in fog and light snow near
New Haven, Connecticut yesterday, spilling an estimated 386,000
gallons of home heating oil into the channel of New Haven
Harbor.
A Coast Guard spokesman said much of the slick had not been
contained and an outgoing tide was carrying it into Long Island
Sound.

previous buildup of SS9 missiles.
The halt has put the Nixon administration's strategists in an
embarrassing spot as they work on plans to ask the new Congress for
more funds for an antiballistic missile system to defend Minutemen
missiles.;
The SS9's are the nuclear rockets which reportedly could destroy
U.S. Minutemen intercontinental missiles in their silos.;

Arms sale'
ossible to
S., Africa..,
LONDON AJP)-Prime Minister
Edward Heath returned from the
Commonwealth summit confer-
ence yesterday declaring that no-
thing decided by the Common-
wealth ministers tied his hands on
a possible proposal to sell arms to
South Africa.
Conservative party officials ex-
pect the prime minister to an-
nounce in Parliament at least. a
limited sale of maritime weapons
to the South Africans. The action
is expected to raise a stormy re-
action at home and in most of
the Commonwealth.
Former Laborite prime minister
Harold Wilson let go a vitrilic
blast at the proposed arms deal at
the start of what is shaping up as
a double-barreled opposition on-
slaught on the Tories in conjunc-
tion with the government's anti-
strike legislation.
But Heath and his followers be-
lieve they have the full backing
of the electorate in their cam-
paign to halt crippling wildcat
strikes and curb the power of the
trade unions.
Home secretary Reginald Maud-
lin, who sat in for Heath during
the prime minigter's tour of Com-
monwealth capitals stated the ad-
ministration's confidence in a
speech Friday night to a party
rally.
The opposing fury against the
antistrike legislation, Maulding
said "will not impress the public;
at the ballot box they demon-
strated strong support for our
proposals. I do not doubt for cne
minute they would vote in the
same way today."
Officials said Maulding con-
sulted Heath in Singapore before
including that remark in his
speech. Conservative newspapers
promptly interpreted it as a clear
warning to the opposition that the
administration would not hesitate
to call a snap national election
if the opposition to the union leg-
islation becomes intractable in
Parliament.
Heath is facing a four-day-old
nationwide postal strike, which has
halted the mail and tied up teleJ
phone and telegraph communica-
tions.
Still with the Tories' popularity
sinking in the latest opinion polls,
an early electoral confrontation
seemed unlikely.
