the guerrilla bases was a reprisal
for the hijack incident, but agreed
with a questioner that one effect
of the raids might be to lessen Arab
jubilation at Sunday's events.
A Syrian communique said the
jets struck at civilian targets and
that an undisclosed number of ci-
vilians, including women and chil-
dren, were killed or wounded.
Israel claimed the attacks were
confined to military targets.
Commenting on Syrian reports,
Elzar said he did not think there
were women and children in the
commando bases.
Egypt's M i d d 1 e East News
Agency said 25 bodies were taken
to Damascus hospitals after the
raids near the capital and more
bodies werehbeing found in the
debris. Arab reports put the toll
at 45 dead and 70 wounded.
At the Tripoli press conference,
the three commandos brushed aside
a question whether any of them
opened fire on the Israeli hostages,

saying "This was irrelevant. It
made no difference."
When told the hostages were un-
armed, they said, "We know that.
So are all civilians now being kill-
ed in Arab countries by Israeli
planes."
The three, Ibrahim Badran, Sa-
mer Mohammed Abdullah, and
Abdel Kadirel Dnawy, appeared
nervous at times during the press
conference.
Badran told the questioners, "We
were not after killing. We are not
savages, terrorists or monsters. We
hoped the operation in the Munich
Olympics would succeed without
bloodshed. We merely wanted to
release our friends in Israeli
prisons.
"After the German betrayal we
had no regrets. We knew we had
to die. This was also obviously the
fate of the hostages," he added.
Abdullah. said he had been sure
the Black September organization,
which claimed responsibility for
the Munich operation, would' free

Nixon "in return for a few bal-
lots."
Speaking for President Nguyen
Van Thieu, the broadcast said any
U.S. - Hanoi settlement "will be
worthless" if he does not sign it,
and he has no intention of approv-
ing the current, tentative agree-
ment.
The State Department said it
does not share Saigon's assess-
ment of the situation nor of Hanoi
motives.
Anyway, other American offic-
ials said they still consider Thieu's
position, including the broadcast,
as aimed more at his internal po-
litical situation, rather than Wash-
ington.
Both North and South Vietnam
raised the question of whether U.
S. presidential politics was play-
ing a part in the Nixon adminis-
tration's peace negotiations.
Radio Hanoi, quoting the Com-
munist party newspaper Nhan
Dan, asked of the Nixon adminis-
tration "Do they want to use the
negotiations to servethe political
goals they pursue in their coun-
try?"
The broadcast was referring to

fleet was seen as another gesture
of good will in an effort to get a
peace settlement with the North
Vietnamese.
Dozens of carriers, cruisers and
destroyers have quietly steamed
southward below the 20th Parallel,
and the Navy has halted all bom-
bardment and new mining of North
Vietnamese waters above the line,
the informants said.
It had been disclosed earliereand
confirmed by Defense Secretary
Melvin Laird that all air strikes
had been halted above the 20th
Parallel.
The 20th Parallel is just above
the port of Thanh Hoa, 85 miles
south of Hanoi and 210 miles north
of the demilitarized zone separat-
ing tne Vietrams. The U. S. re-
duction in effect halts all types
of attacks against North Viet-
nam's heartland, including the ma-
jor cities of Hanoi and Haiphong
and the vital northeast and north-
west rail lines connecting with
China.
While the placing of new mines
has been halted above the 20th

mines still remain.
Although the United States .is
not replacing the new mines that
have automatically deactivated,
there are still other types that
must be deactivated by other
means. Thus far, informants said,
no move has been made to do
this.

sons that "the proposal fails to,

Burghardt and Bullard personal-
ly reject any constitutional amend-

trol of taxes. It becomes taxationi

If proposal D is approved thee

The clearest choice for a generation

So McGovern can't win, eh?
Where have you heard that before?
In the primaries last Spring,
that's where.
But you fooled the political
experts and rewrote the history
books. You provided the manpower
and womanpower for the largest,
smoothest, toughest vote-canvas-
sing operation this country had
ever seen.
Now it's time to do it again.
And the job this Fall is even more
important. For the choice between
Nixon and McGovern is the clear-
est choice voters have had for a
generation.
McGovern has opposed the
bombing of Indochina, while
Nixon has been inflicting the ex-
plosive equivalent of 7 Hiroshima
atom bombs a month on that al-
ready devastated area.
Nixon believes in putting peo-
ple out of work in order to hold
down prices. His policies have put
2 million more people out of work.
McGovern believes that there
should be a job for everyone who

ernment itself as the employer of
last resort.
Nixon started his campaign
with $10 million in secret money.
McGovern's campaign is financed
almost entirely by contributions
of $5 to $25 from the people.
Nixon has nominated conserv-
atives and mediocrities to the
United States Supreme Court.
One or two more Nixon appoint-
ments if he is re-elected, and you'll
live with a heavy-handed Nixon
court for the rest of your life.
McGovern has pledged to appoint
a woman and members of racial.
and ethnic minorities, and will ap-
point highly qualified liberals.
Ralph Nader says the Nixon

Administration is "the most cor-
rupt in our history." The late
Robert Kennedy called George
McGovern "the most decent man
in the Senate."
McGovern wants the million-
aires and the large corporations to
start paying their fair share of
taxes. Nixon wants to maintain
the status quo.
Get an absentee ballot if you
need one. Get some money to-
gether to help us make get-out-
the-vote phone calls. And get to-
gether with your local McGovern
Committee to find out how you
can help.
You started this campaign. It's
up to you to finish it.
