A FEDERAL GRAND JURY indicted 23 members of the Black
P. Stone Nation yesterday on charges of obtaining money by fraud
from a community organization funded by the Office of Economic
Opportunity.
The 123-count indictment released yesterday said the black street
gang members obtained money from The Woodlawn Organization
through stealing and kickbacks.
The indictment claimed the gang leaders systematically stole funds
from the program by claiming salaries for teaching duties they did
not perform.

THE UNITED WOMEN'S CONTINGENT of the National Peace
Action Coalition attacked President Nixon yesterday for tightening
rules on abortions at military hospitals and said he should not inter-
fere with women's "rights to control their own bodies and lives."
The attack stemmed from Nixon's order to all military base hos-
pitals to abide by abortion laws of the states in which they are located.
The effect of the directive is to reverse service regulations issued last
summer which had liberalized the rules on abortions at military hos-
pitals.

FBI fires women
for peace activities
WASHINGTON (R) - Three The women's complaints come in
women said yesterday they were the midst of rising criticism of

jobs with the FBI because they controversy over FBI policies to-
worked with an antiwar group in ward the antiwar movement and
their off hours. student activists.

WASHINGTON (P) - Three
antiwar Congressmen yesterday
asked the U.S. District Court here
to declare the Vietnamese war il-
legal and to order it stopped in 60
days unless Congress approves it.
Since the Constitution gives Con-
gress the right to declare war, they
said, the Nixon administration and
the Johnson administration before
it violated their right as congress-
men to decide whether the nation
should fight.
It is the first time members of
Congress have sought sunh a court
test. TherSupreme Court has con-
sistently refused to hear other suits
against the war.
Last year it refused a direct test
of a Massachusetts law against
sending its state residents to fight
undeclared wars. That case is now
working its way up through lower
courts.
"This is something we hope will
not be justanother futile gesture,"
said Rep. Michael Harrington, (D-
Mass.) The suit was filed by Har-
rington and Reps Farren Mitchell,
(D-Md.), and Benjamin Rosen-
thal, (D-N.Y.)
Lawrence Velvel, one of five
young attorneys who drew up the
suit, said recent legal trends make
it likely the courts will consider the
suit.
The question of whether con-
gressmen are being denied a right
to decide on the war is not political
but legal, he said, Courts refuse to
hear cases they consider political.
Velvel said a ruling could be ex-
pected under normal circumstances
in three or four months.
.In other antiwar actions, Wiscon-
sin Gov. Patrick Lucey said yes-
terday he did not see how Presi-
dent Nixon and Congress could ig-
nore the result of a referendum
in which Madison voters endorsed
by 66 per cent an immediate with-
drawal of American men and
equipment from Vietnam.

The final tally in Tuesday's ref-
erendum was 31,526 "yes" votes
for withdrawal, to 15,977 "no"
votes.
The Wisconsin governor, a Dem-
ocrat, said the result was "paltic-
.ularly remarkable" because the
same electorate in 1968 had voted
27,755 to 21,129 against withdrawal.
Lucey, who had urged Madison
residents to vote "yes" cn the
proposition, said he hoped Nixon
would take note of the result while
drafting his speech to the nation
Wednesday night on the troop with-
drawal schedule.

InI Ceylon
COLOMBO, Ceylon (P)-Ceylon's
government hurled armor and war-
planes against hit-and-run Che
Guevarist insurgents yesterday and
claimed there were heavy rebel
casualties in countryside skir-
mishes.
The government radio said air
support was called into help dis-
lodge insurgents in control of a
key bridge at Alawwa, 50 milts
from Colombo, the capital.
Prime Minister . Sirimavo Ban-
daranaike, who took office in 1960
as the world's first woman pre-
mier, denounced the rebellion Tues-
day and blamed it on an organiza-
tion of young leftist militants
known as Che Guevarists, after
the Latin-American revolutionary..
The Guevarists, well-to-do radi-
cal youths with Maoist sympathies
and numbering about 20,000, are
dissatisfied because Bandaranaike
and her leftist coalition govern-
ment have not carried out a pro-
mised program of socialism.
There were reports of scattered
resistance in several other areas
but security forces appeared to
have the upper hand in the three-
day-old fighting, the government
said.

play there, it was learned yesterday.
State Department officials in Washington said they welcomed the
invitation as a possible break-through in efforts to establish better re-
lations with China. They said the United States would view favorably a
reciprocal visit to this country by an athletic team from the People's
Republic.

The women said they were told
that FBI regulations prohibit parti-
san political activity. An FBI
spokesman declined comment.
Linda Janca, 21, and Christine
Hoomes, 18, said they submitted
their resignations as requested.
Janice Bush, 19, said she is con-
sidering a legal battle in an .at-
tempt to hold onto her job.
The women said in interviews
with the Evening Star of Washing-
ton that none of them held a secir-
ity clearance or dealt with sensi-
tive information. They said their
antiwar tasks were as routine as
their FBI duties.

The trio said they had been work-
ing for two months "stuffing en-
velopes" for the National Peace
Action Coalition, the organization,
coordinating an antiwar protest
set for April 24.
Janca joined the FBI in 1968 after
leaving her hometown of Biloxi,
Miss. Hoomes, a native of Wood-
bridge, Va., joined the FBI in
October; and Bush, of Nunda, N.Y.,
was hired in January.
"If I knew then what I know now,
I probably never would have got-
ten into the FBI," said Hoomes.
Janca said when an FBI official
described their work as political,
she replied: "The war isn't politi-
cal. It doesn't matter who's in of-
fice."
