Edgar Hoover yesterday admitted that his agents had questioned rvlatives of missing American service- men about a peace group that relays mail to and from North Vietnamese prison compounds. Hoover confirmed that the Committee of Liaison with Families of, Servicemen Detained in North Vietnam had been investigated to de- termine possible security violations, but denied that prosecution of the group and harassment of the servicemen's relatives, had resulted. However, Mrs. George Clarke, of Hampton, Va., said that an agent last fall warned her to avoid dealing with the Committee, which has been the only regular channel of POW mail. pendin gpeal SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. liP -- President Nixon ordered Lt. William L. Calley Jr. to be released from imprisonment yester- day pending review of his conviction for murders at My Lai. Acting in the wake of a White House announcement that it was getting thousands of letters and wires running 100 to 1 for clemency, the President personally telephoned the chief of staff to free Galley from the stockade at Ft. Benning, Ga. Presidential Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler said Nixon acted as President, rather than as commander-in-chief, add;- ing "This is not a legal step, it was taken at the President's discretion." Defense lawyers had pressed for freedom for the 27-year- old Calley pending outcome of appeal of his senitence, but they -Associated Press An unidentified black student at Saginaw Valley College, with 40 other black students in the background, demonstrates peace- fully against college policies concerning minority students.

MOSCOW GP .- Two foreign Communist leaders challenged the Brezhnev doctine yesterday in the independence and sovereignty for all Communist parties. Enrico Berlinguer, No. 2 man of the Italian party-the largest - in the West-insisted on "full inde- pendence for every party and every country." INicoiae Ceausescu, first secre- tary of the Romanian .Communist party, called for a "new type of relations"' among socialist coun- tries based on "independence and and noninterference in internal af- fairs." An unwritten part of the con- gress agenda, but no less important because of it, is justification of the Soviet-led occupation of Czecho- slovakia. This is the first party congress since the invasion, with its over- throw of reformer Alexander Dub- cek and his supporters of "social- ism with a human face." ITaking up Brezhnev's line that the occupation of Czechoslovakia was the "rendering of international assistance," Czechoslovakia partyi leader Gustav Husak -declared: "this international help savel our' country from civil war, counter- revolution and he.lped preserve the gains of socialism." After Husak finished to the wild applause of more than 5,000 Soviet delegates and foreign guests, Ber- linguer expressed his independ- ence. "we do not identify ourselves with each and every choice that other socialist countries and, gen- erally speaking every Comnmunist party has made and may make within the limits of its own respon- sibility." additiona (year WASHINGTON (JP) - A bill pro- viding for three years of civilhan service for conscientious obpectors i~n±~ ~±sit~i~uiji uuuro oer ie atin i tn wae 0 he instead of two--and military serv- revolt, as he imprisoned political opponents, dismissed the congress, I'ice for those who fail to perform and closed the universities. their civilian assignments satis- * * factorily-was approved yesterday THE BOEING CO., prime contractor oni the SST program by the House. recently rejected by Congress, estimated yesterday it has receiv- An effort by Rep.
