Sadat is reported to have said that fighting will resume by the end of the month unless Israel responds to his proposal. Sadat's proposal offered an extension of the present cease fire and the reopening of theSuez Canal provided that the Israelis pull back troops from the banks of the canal and withdraw from part of the Sinai Peninsula. PAKISTAN'S AIR FORCE yesterday continued bombing raids on rural towns in East Pakistan. e Indian press reports said Sheik Mujibur's "independence forces" were still active in the East. The Indian government radio reported that Pakistanis were attack- ing troops guarding power stations in many towns. It added that wide- spread power failures followed the attacks. * * * SPACE -CENTER OFFICIALS have proposed a four shot pro- gram to fill a four year void in manned space flights after 1973. The proposed project would send astronauts into orbit to map the United States, study earth resources and fight pollution by mak- ing environmental measurements. It would include one shot a year and would use surplus Apollo3 spacecraft which one official said "are going down the drain anyway."? A BLUE RIBBON COUNCIL recommended yesterday that Social Security benefits be adjusted automatically to the rise in the cost of living. This proposal would require a change from present Social Se- curity law under which Congress sets the level for benefits each year.' Among other recommendations of the council were an extension of medicare benefits to all those receiving Social Security benefits due to disability and raising the maximum amount of earnings taxable; for Social Security from $7,000 to $12,000. * * JOSEPH VALACHI, who disclosed the inner workings of the Cosa Nostra, died yesterday of a heart attack at the La Tuna ! Federal Correctional Institution in El Paso, Texas. Valachi became famous in 1965 when he informed on former associates by disclosing the secrets of the Cosa Nostra as well as identifying many of the organization's leaders before televised Senate rackets committee hearings. At the time of his death he was serving a life sentence for murder. Prison doctors said the death was unexpected as Valachi was not in ill health. THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE'S director said yester- day that childhood leukemia probably could now be listed among the relatively few cancers that are curable. Speaking before the 13th Annual Seminar for Science Writers spon- sored by the American Cancer Society, Dr. Carl Baker said it was tooi early to be absolutely sure about the cure potential for leukemia. ' In the strongest statement made yet by a government official, however, he said a large percentage of children could be cured of the disease by drugs. -- - - - -- - -Associated Press Chilean elections Soldiers guard the polls in Santiago, Chile in preparation for today's nation-wide municipal elections.

'PROJECT UNSELL: Ad-men urged to aid anti-wplar movement SAIGON (Al) - A South Vietnamese spokesman yesterday claimed that Saigon forces wrecked a veteran North Viet- namese regiment in three days of fierce fighting at a fire base in the central highlands. "We can say that the eighth North Vietnamese Regiment has been put out of action," said Lt. Col. Le Trung Hien in announcing that the North Vietnamese were repulsed blood- ily in a new attack Friday at Fire Base Six near the border of Laos. Hien claimed the North Vietnamese had lost 1,180 killed out of the regiment's forces of more than 2,000 men. Fulbright Tereport was greeted with skepticism by some military quart- ers. They seid it was an example of efforts by the South Vietnamese to rebuild their fighting image 1T S O after the routed Laos incursion. Military sources said the North Vietnamese regiment, while norm- ally more than 2,000 at fullpor e strength, probably numbered no more than 1,500 men.

OP) - More than two hundred adver- tising personnel yesterday gath- ered at Yale University as a part of "Project Unsell," a cam- paign to get advertising em- ployes to devote part of their time to countering government public relations concerning t h e Indochina war. They heard several anti-war speakers and were asked by students and others to turn their efforts to counter what was characterized as slick gov- ernment propaganda promoting the Nixon administration's posi- tion on the war. "It seems clear that one of the few battles the Pentagon h a s won is the advertising and pub- lic relations battle," said David McCall, president of the New York advertising firm of La- Roche, McCaffrey and McCall. The projects' founder said he started the project largely out of concern for the peace move- ments inability to "get the mes- sage across to the people quickly and effectively". He said the admen would be asked to turn out commercial messages by May 1 promoting an end to the war. At that time, he said, the commercials will be examined by a "review panel" He said any advertising ac- cepted would have to meet the test of "truth and fairness." "Project Unsell" is aiming at May 31 as release date for its commercials. It has received in- dications that some radio and television outlets .as well as some magazines, will carry them without charge. 4: , ' ; ,, ;''' t;':; , ,. t ;, l ' ',' ''' E:w'- " , ,, r - r 4M. ".. 1. ;.: ;.: , Y - r J, . r '' LEGISLATIVE ACTION States study abortion law reform (Continued from page 1) ? given New York what one physi- cian calls "a monopoly on abor-, tion."I Because of this "monopoly" New' York officials working to imple- ment the law have had to deal with two major problems: -Providing the number of need- ed spaces in licensed hospitals and clinics for women seeking abor- tions; and -Deciding how to regulate the commercial referral services which have developed to place out of state women in abortion facilities. Hawaii's law, passed last year, permits a woman who, has been a resident of the state for 90 days to have an abortion through the 24th week for any reason. The Alaskan law, which became effective despite the governor's veto, is similar to Hawaii's law, but "requires only a 30-day resi-1 dence. Passed by a statewide referen- dum last November, the State of Washington's liberalized abortion law permits a physician to per- form an abortion for any reasonk on a woman through the fourthj month of pregnancy. The law, approved by 50 per cent of the voters, has a residency requirement of 90 days. States following the ALI guide- lines are more restrictive, making it difficult for women, even resi- dents, to obtain legal abortions., Because of the restrictions, abor- tion reform proponents believe the ALI guidelines to be outdated. One objection made to ALI guidelines is that most states re- quire approval of bureaucratic hos- pital boards before the woman can have the abortion.

Fulbright said the expansion cf presidential authority has included domestic policy as well, epitomized by Justice Department and Army spying on anyone considered sub- versive. Fulbright, in his prepared text, avoided personal attacks on Presi- dent Nixon but returned repeatedly to this theme that institutions are to blame for what he sees as an emerging presidential authoritar- ianism. Fulbright blamed also the presi- dent's position at the apex of power surrounded by his own ap- pointees and facing members of Congress only when he chooses.
