U.N. SECRETARY-GENERAL U THANT has reached a firm
and irrevocable decision to step down from his post at the end
of 1971 despite efforts to draft him for a third term, an author-
atative source reported yesterday.
Sources close to Thant, who will be 63 when his second five-year
term expires in December, 1971, said that the only reason for delaying
the announcement of his retirement is his desire to avoid a long
period as a "lame duck."
His decision to step down was apparently based on personal
reasons as well as his often-stated view that nobody should aspire to
serve more than one term as secretary-general. Thant had made a'
previous effort to retire in 1966 but was pursuaded to accept a second
term. I

"Little Murders" is about
a society decomposing at
fever pitch. Our society, if
you must know. A couple of
years ago, "Little Murders"
seemed a nightmare. It's still
a nightmare, but now it's a
documentary as well. The
manic hilarity keeps snow-
balling. [If you don't laugh
at "Little Murders," which is
almost too true tobe funny,

BRITISH FOREIGN SECRETARY Sir Alec Douglas-Home
said yesterday that Israel should pull back from territory captur-
ed in the 1967 Middle East war in exchange for "secure and rec-
ognized boundaries" with the Arab nations.
It was the first public policy statement on the Arab-Israeli dead-
lock by Britain's Conservative government, which took office last
June and it appeared to indicate that Britain may be planning a
more active role in the search for a peace settlement in the Middle
East.

PHOENIX, Ariz. {IP) - Warn-
ing that Americans are in
danger of losing their free-
dom to "haters," President
Nixon declared yesterday that
the time has come to take a
tough - minded approach to
violence.
The new approach, he said,
would include tougher laws, firm-
er justice in the courtroom and a
new and stern attitude by t h e
American people to deal with ter-
ror is tic dissent.
What is not needed, he declar-
ed, is repression.
Nixon's remarks, delivered to a
Republican rally at the Phoenix
airport, represented one of t h e
highlights , of his personal cam-
paign in behalf of GOP candi-
dates.
As part of what he termed "the
new approach to violence," Nix-
j..on listed three areas in which he
said changes are needed:
-"New and strong laws that
will give the peace forces n e w
muscle to deal with the criminal
forces" and the election of Con-
gressmen "who will work for the
fight for laws that will put the
terrorists where they belong -

'The petition is one way to pin down
candidates about how they stand on the
war issue," says coordinator Ann Oliver
of Peace Works, a moderate antiwar or-
ganization active in the current election
campaign.
During the past three weeks, Peace
Works, formerly known as the Hatfield
McGovern Petition Drive, has sent copies
of its five-point "voter's pledge" to 58
candidates for state and local office, as
well as accumulating close to 1000 signa-
tures of private citizens.
Peace Works has taken out advertise-
ments in the Ann Arbor News and The
Daily this week listing the 26 candidates
who have endorsed all five points of the
petition.
Petition signers pledge themselves to
support a publicised timetable for rapid
withdrawal of all American troops from
Indochina, an immediate end to all bomb-
ing by American planes Qf any country in
Indochina, and a drastic reduction in the
subsidization of military operations in
those countries. Signers also endorse a
substantial reduction in the use of our
taxes for military appropriations including
armaments and a much greater proportion
of taxes spent on meeting the pressing
domestic needs of our country including
law enforcement, housing, health care,
pollution control and education.
Sander Levin, the Democratic candi-
date in the gubernatorial race and one of
the major candidates to sign the petition
