Congress to fight aid to N.
Viet
WASHINGTON (P) - An unusual
coalition of doves and hawks in
Congress is building an attack
against any administration plans to
provide direct U.S. reconstruction
aid for North Vietnam.
Among those on the same side of
the issue are Sens. Barry Gold-
water (R-Ariz.), who supports ad-
ministration foreign and defense
policies, and William Proxmire (D-
Wis.), a frequent critic.
The fight is likely to be exag-
gerated by debate over President
Nixon's sharp domestic budget cuts
and statements by presidential
aides that any aid for North Viet-
nam would probably require fur- ; ponents of direct U.S. aid.

new party priorities
,; t
TOPEKA (A') - Democratic Na-
tional Chairman Robert Strausst
said yesterday the party can re-r
gain the confidence of the Amer-t
ican people by giving high priorityt
to their concern about crime,r
health costs and child care.
Strauss' speech - prepared fors
a Kansas Democratic Washington'
Day dinner here - was his firste
major outline of party prospects
and problems since he assumed his
post in mid-December.
He said the Democratic come- r
back will be helped by President I
Nixon, whose "disregard for the
Social needs of the people makes
it even more imperative that we
meet our responsibilities more pos-
itively."
Citing such things as the cost of
paying doctor bills after catas-
trophic illnesses, for nursing homes
and child care centers, Strauss
said, "all of these are legitimate
concerns of our people - and ,
theref ore,legitimate concerns of'
our party."
"And when we demonstrate that,
the Democratic party is ready toj
give them a high priority, then we:
will regain much of the confidence
that was lost in 1972," the Demo-
cratic chairman said.

"A delicious escapade into the
world of camp and surrealism
packed with wit, music and
a hell of a lot of humanity."
-Craig Zadan, After Dark Magazine
"COMEDY, FANTASY AND LOTS
OF ROCK...told with an adept
blend of real and unreal."
-Frances Herridge, New York Post
"A pulsing, golden creation for
young people and for those who
can appreciate the put-on. It
speaks the language of the 70's.
'ZACHARIAH' is a must."
