'Calley harbored no
malice,' lawyers say

PARIS (P) - The political talks
between the Saigon government
and the Viet Cong were indefi-
nitely suspended yesterday after
Viet Cong State Minister Nguyen
Van Hieu walked out of the 28th
session without waiting for the
other side to speak.
Hieu said his walkout marked
a protest against what he termed
Saigon's "continuous and flag-
rant violation" of the cease-fire
signed in Paris more than eight
months ago.
SOUTH VIETNAMESE Deputy
Premier Nguyen Luu Vien said
the walkout displayed "a discour-
teous and insolent attitude unac-
ceptable among well - educated
people and unacceptable and in-
tolerable among negotiators seek-
ing a peaceful solution."
Hieu stressed that he was only
walking out of the 28th session,
and demanded that the stalled
conference should continue Oct.
11 as though nothing had hap-
pened.
Vien angrily rejected the date
set by Hieu and told newsmen
the talks would resume only
when the two sides had reached
agreement on a date. Confer-
ence sources said nonetheless
-they expected the two delegations
to resume their talks before the
end of the month, particularly in
view of Secretary of State Hen-

ry Kissinger's forthcoming visit
to Peking.
THE TALKS were arranged be-
tween Kissinger and Hanoi's Le-
Duc Tho during their talks here
last winter and were explicitly
required under the Jan. 28 cease-
fire. The agreement called on the
rival South Vietnamese regimes
to "hold consultations in a spirit
of national reconciliation and
concord" to agree on South Viet-
nam's political future.
The talks soon settled into a
weekly routine of mutual accu-
sation and abuse, and thus far
have made no progress whatever
toward agreement on the pro-
posed n a t i o n a l reconcilia-
tion council which is to organize
South Vietnamese elections.
Viet Cong spokesman Ly Van
Sau called a special news con-
ference to announce that the
walkout was meant to "underline
the gravity of the situation" caus-
ed by continuous incursions by
Saigon forces into Viet Cong-con-
trolled areas in the central high-
lands, the coastal plain and the
Mekong Delta in violation of the
cease-fire.
HE S A I D the United States
was in collusion with the Saigon
military command in launching
these attacks and in "feverish
preparation of new military ad-
ventures." In some of the at-
tacks, he said whole villages had
been wiped out, including some
in the area of My Lai, the site
of the 1968 massacre.-
At the United Nations in New
York, South Vietnam's Foreign
Minister Nguyen Phuc Duc said
in an interview that North Viet-
nam is infiltrating men and wea-
pons into the South at a "serious
and disturbing" rate. He claimed
Hanoi has sent 70,000 troops- and
400 tanks into the South since the
Paris peace agreement.

WASHINGTON (P) - Lt. Wil-
liam Calley believed he was
carrying out a legal order at My
Lai and so was guilty of noth-
ing more than an honest mistake,
his lawyers said in court yester-
day.
"Lt. Calley harbored no ma-
lice," said Army Lawyer Capt.
Houston Gordon. "He did not
have the mind of a murderer."
GORDON ASKED the U. S.
Court of Military Appeals, the fi-
nal arbiter of American mili-
tary courts, to reverse Calley's
conviction for murder and his
20-year sentence at hard labor.
No decision from the three presi-
dentially appointed civilians on
the court is expected for several
weeks.

Then the secretary of the Army
and President Nixon will review
the decision. Nixon has said he
will look at it personally.
There is some chance that ci-
vilian federal courts might be
asked to review the Calley case,
but Army lawyers in the Pen-
tagon said yesterday's hearing
is likely to be the last formal
appeal on behalf of the 29-year-
old lieutenant.
CALLEY WAS convicted March
29, 1971, of murdering at least
22 Vietnamese civilian and as-
sault with intent to murder a
Vietnamese child. Testimony at
his court - martial showed hun-
dreds of civilians died as Calley's
platoon swept through the village
March 16, 1968.

WOMEN'S FAIR
"WHAT WOMEN ARE DOING"
FRIDAY, OCT. 5, 1973

The Whole Earth Catalogue calls it-
"A masterpiece. If you don't think you have any ques-
tions about your body, you'll probably be surprised. And if you're
looking for a stronger, clearer sense of yourself as a woman, you'll
be satisfied." -Diana Shugart, The Whole Earth Catalogue
Saturday Review says-
"It's one of those rare books that truly
make a difference.
One wants to urge, cajole and plead with
women - and men; too, most of them
equally ignorant of the female body - to
Sread it, study it, discuss it with friends, use
_ it as a reference, and perhaps even lend it
toa doctor." -Genevieve Stuttaford,
Saturday Review
