A BILL EMPHASIZING more openness in legislative pro-
ceedings was passed yesterday by the House.
As sent to the Senate, the congressional reorganizational bill
would change House procedure by allowing radio and TV coverage
of committee hearings, if members approve, permit use of electronic
equipment for roll calls and require that a record of roll call votes
taken in committees be made available to the public.
The bill was drafted to streamline some of the antiquated proce-
dures of Congress.
TUPAMARO TERRORISTS in Uruguay offered to "imme-
diately free" U.S. soils scientist Claude Fly, one of two foreigners
they hold hostage, in return for public distribution of a manifesto
harshly critical of President Jorge Pacheo Areco.
Though the other hostage Brazilian consul Aloysio Mares Dias
Gomide, 41, is reportedly well, lly was said to need medical attention.

A CONGRESS of 230 leading Roman Catholic theologians-
called on the church yesterday to let laymen share in the choice
of a Pope, bishop or priest.
The theologians did not reach agreement on how laymen should
take part in electing church leaders.
During the six-day meeting, the priests also 'said churches must
fight for freedom and look carefully for any possible link between
themselves and "The powers'ofoppression."
AFTER SEVEN YEARS, of congressional prodding, the In-
terior Department agreed yesterday to ask industries to tell the
government how much and what kind of poisons they dump into
the' nation's streams.
Because the public will not have access to all the information,
Rep. Henry Reuss (D-Wis), said he fears a government coverup of
the names of polluters and their means of disposing industrial wastes.
Undersecretary of the Interior Fred Russell said only trade
secrets covering operations and processes of plants will be kept
confidential.

WASHINGTON (0 - Supporters of a constitutional
amendment for electing the president by direct popular vote
lost a critical round in the Senate yesterday but maintained
they still have a chance of winning.
In a 54-36 vote, the Senate ,defeated a move to put the
debate-closing cloture rule into effect, which' Would have
forced a showdown on the proposed amendment.
The proposed amendment would abolish the Electoral
College and provide that a presidential candidate receiving
40 per cent or more of the popular vote would be elected.

MADAME NGUYEN THI BINH, head of the Viet Cong delegation,
arrives in Paris yesterday to attend the 84th session of the Viet-,
nam peace talks and present the Viet Cong's eight-point peace
proposal.
1Vet Cong present new
eight-'point peace plan
PARIS 4AP) - The Viet Cong yesterday put forward and eight-
point peace plan which they said was intended to speed the progress
of the lagging Paris peace talks.
American negotiators quicklylabelled the plan "new wine in old
bottles" but also promised to study it carefully.
The proposal included a June 30, 1971 withdrawal deadline for
U.S. troops, a cease-fire assurance during withdrawal, discussion of
the prisoner issue and a broadened Saigon government.
Backed fully by the North Vietnamese, the offer retained the
basic Viet Cong stipulation that the United States and its allies must
withdraw their forces without posing any conditions.
Nguyen Thi Binh, the Viet Cong foreign minister, described the
eight points as a clarification of previous demands rather than a new
proposal but her spokesman referred to them flatly as "new points."

If no candidate ; received 40
per cent, a runoff .election
would be held between the two
front runners.
The House of Representatives
approved the amendment by a
339-70 vote a year ago and Presi-
dent Nixon subsequently endorsed
it. To take effect, even if approv-
ed by the required two-thirds
margins in the Senate, it would
have to be ratified by 38 of the 50
state legislatures.
Pending an analysis of thevote,
Sen. Mike Mansfield CD-Montana)-
the majority leader, reserved de-
cision on whether to let the debate
run on or drop the amendment
and turn to other legislation.
"I don't wont to go through
an exercise in futility," he said.
'I don't believe in putting on a
charade for the benefit of any
group."
Sen. Birch Bayh, (D-Ind), chief{.,
Senate sponsor of the direct elec-
tion plan, said he would try to
keep it'alive. "I don't intend to
play dead," he told newsmen.
The move to cut off the Senate
debate that began Sept. 8 was
initiated by Mansfield two days
ago and provided the first test
of strength between the opposing.
sides,
It was not a clear-cut test, how-
ever, since Sens. Alan Bible, (-
Nev.), and Robert D. Byrd. (D-
W. Va.), who are among the spon-
sors of the direct election amend-
ment, voted against closing out
the debate.
Bayh himself said he .favored
waiting longer to try for cloture.
He said some of his colleagues
honestly felt the issue should be
debated more thoroughly.
Mansfield told the Senate that
the issue of electoral reform had
been discussed and debated "for
years and years" and it was time
for the members to 'come to a de-
cision.
But Sen. Roman L. Hruska, (R-
Neb.), said the Senate should not
try to force a vote "after seven
skinny days" of debate on a
fundamental constitutional issue.'
Although 10 senators were ab-
sent, the 36 votes against ending
debate were mare than enough to
defeat the move even if all 100
senators were present.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (P)-The
poisonous metal mercury has
been discovered in a wide variety
of common foods in Canada, ac-
cording to a new study by scien-
tists at the University of To-
ronto.
Prof. Robert E. Jervis, a nu-
clear chemist who directed the
study, said it is "quite likely"
that a study of foods in the
United States would reveal the
same potential health hazard.
A spokesman for the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration
in Washington disputed this,
however, saying he would ex-
pect to find only "negligible"
amounts of mercury in ordinary
foods here.
Jervis said hi's study found
significant levels of mercury in
wheat, flour, white bread, long-
grain rice, skim milk powder,
cheese, tea, beef hamburger,.
beef liver, pork liver, calf liver,
fish and poultry.
The FDA spokesman said he
was unware of the Jervis report,
but that such a check already
had been started.
Coiparable studies of fish by
the Industrial Laboratory at
Eastman Kodak Co. in Roches-
ter indicate the Canadians "are
on the right track," according to
Dr. Don H. Anderson, laboratory
director.
The Canadian study adds a
new dimension to the mercury
contamination storm in the
United States that began only
last March with a Canadian an-
nouncement of a fishing ban on
Lake St. Clair because of mer-
cury levels in fish of up to 8
parts per million.
Since then, abnormal levels
of mercury have been found in
water, fish and game birds and
has turned up in at least 33
states. Just Tuesday FDA offi-
cials in Washington said mer-
cury is being used as a preserv-
ative in some cosmetics and
should be replaced as quickly as
possible with less toxic sub-
Ambassador David K. E. Bruce,
the chief U.S. negotiator, said the
text of the Viet Cong statement
would be given careful study. But
he said the points sounded like
"new wine in old bottles."
Before Mrs. Binh spoked Bruce
appealed again for "a fresh look."
Newsmen had told him in advance.
that she was planning "an im-
portant statement."
The Viet Cong officially said
that if the United States would
promise to withdraw all outside
forces by next June 30, her side
would refrain from attacking
them and discussions would start
immediately on "the question of
releasing captured military men."

Unions fund
congressman
WASHINGTON (R) - A $50
per person "Maritime Reception"
has helped fatten a $37,000 cam-
paign fund for an uiopposed con-
gressman whose House committee
.handles federal aid for the 'ship-
ping industry.
Two top maritime officials in
the Nixon admfnistration too 0k
part in the fund-raising affair
this month for Rep. Edward A.
Garmatz, (D-Md.), chairman of
the House Merchant Marine Com-
mittee.
Garmatz was renominated with-
out opposition in Maryland's pri-
mary Tuesday and has no Repub-
lican opponent in November. He
said the campaign fund is being
used to help other political organ-
izations in his waterfront dis-
trict.
Seamen's unions, whose mem-
bers benefit from the federal aid,
have channeled large contribu-
tions into this year's campaign
fund.
A $3,000 donation from an arm
of the Seafarers International Un-
ion was given to a separate "D.C.
Committee for Garmatz" set up in
the nation's capital, a haven that
has no laws for local campaign
fund reporting.
Garmatz's campaign treasurer
in his home district in Baltnmore
refused' to comment , on the "D.C.
Committee." The Seafarers Union
is currently under an indictment
for illegal campaign contributions
from 1964 through 1968.
Garmatz also was named 1 a s t
week in a Justice Department list
of 16 congressmen and senators
whose campaigns got illegal dona-
tions from two San Francisco ship
lines.
The maritime reception's com-
mittee has not filed a report on
its finances in Maryland, despite
state laws requiring detailed
statements by any group raising
$51 oramore for a political .candi-
date.
