DAILY DIGEST APRIL 5,1977

From Wire Service Reports-
Internatianal

g a g g e d most newspapers
through a set of strict "guide-
lines" and censorship orders'
under the 21-month emergency.

Censorship had relaxed of-
ficially when Gandhi called
Mid-eastfighting elections last January, and fin-
ally lifted when the emergency
was revoked March 22.

TEL AVIV - Israeli artillery tionable matter act notes that
fired over the border into Leb- "freedom of the press is neces-

anon yesterday after several
shells from the other side land-
ed near the northern settlement
of Misgay Am, official sources
said.
Today's acknowledgement
here of Israeli firing across the
border was the first made in
several months. It was also the
first occasion for some time
that shells were reported to
have landed inside Israel.
Syrian forces joined a sweep-
ing counteroffensive by Pales-
tinian guerrillas against right-
wing Christians in south Leba-
non, marking their first entry
into the fighting near the Is-
raeli border, leftist and right-
ist sources reported.
The informants said Syrian
gunners of the Arab League
peacekeeping army hammered
Christian positions near the bor-
der with heavy artillery and
multiple rocket launchers to
set the stage for a Palestinian
assault.
The Palestinians said they
recaptured a strategic village
and hill from the Christians
and stormed into the Christian-
held town of Marjayoun, six
miles from the Israeli frontier.
Indian press
laws proposed
NEW DELHI - India's new
Janata Party government yes-
terday introduced two bills in
Parliament to remove press
curbs imposed during former
Prime Minister Indira Gand-
hi's emergency rule.
Information Minister L. K.
Advani was cheered as he in-
troduced the two bills in the
Lok Sabha (lower house),
keeping an election pledge to
abolish press censorship. The
two bills will probably lbe de-
bated this week.
The first bill effectively re-
vokes the controversial 1976 act
preventing the publication of
objectionable matter, which
gave the government power to
ban reporting on specific sub-
jects for up to two months,
close down offending journals
and seize presses.
The second bill would give
newspapers and other mass me-
dia legal protection for pub-
lishing parliamentary proceed-
ings. They were deprived of
this during the emergency.
The act preventing the pub-
lication of objectionable matter
enshrined censorship in the In-
dian statute book after the for-
mer government effectively

sary for the successful func-
tioning of democratic institu-
tions."
National
Sucpreme Court
decisions
WASHINGTON - The Su-
preme Court agreed yesterday
to decide how far the govern-
ment can go to make sure the
nation's cleanest air gets no
dirtier.
The justices voted to hear an
appeal by many industries that
the U. S. Circuit Court of Ap-
peals in Washington, D. C.,
made a mistake Wyhen it ruled
that the Environmental Protec-
tion Agency has broad author-
ity in guarding clean air.
The industry representatives
claim that the strict clean-air
regulations will prohibit manu-
facturing growth by limiting
the number of new plants that
can be constructed.
Under the 1970 Clean Air
Act, some air pollution is al-
lowed.
Amendments to the act, how-
ever, were used by the EPA to
order states to protect those
areas with better air quality
thanl allowed under the act.
Those areas should not be sub-
jected to "significant deterior-
ation," the EPA has ordered.
Most of the clean-air areas
are located in rural states or
in states historically free of
heavy manufacturing.
In other action, the Supreme
Court affirmed it will not per-
mit government prosecutors to
appeal a criminal case once a
judge or jury acquits the de-
fendant.
The 7-1 decision was the lat-
est in a recent series of high
court rulings interpreting the
double jeopardy clause of the
Constitution. The rulings have
given conflicting signals about
the power of prosecutors to pur-
sue criminal cases, and the
latest decision came down on
the side of the defendant.
Sadat, Carter
meet
WASHINGTON - Egypt's
President Anwar Sadat served
notice yesterday that "the Pal-
estinian cause" is the core of
the Arab - Israeli conflict.
"No progress whatsoever can
be achieved so long as this
problem remains unsolved," he
told President. Carter during

an arrival ceremony at theI
White House.
? Referring to Carter's public
endorsement of a "homeland"
for Palestinian refugees, Sadat
told the President: "You came
very close to the proper reme-
dy."
Sadat, who publicly cham-
pions the Palestinian cause,
seemed to be pressing for na-
tional statehood, although he
altered his text to say "nor-
mal rights" instead of "na-
tional rights."
Carter, who referred to the
Palestinians as refugees, as the
1Israelis do, left considerable
room for interpretation. , The
"homeland" he endorsed could
be either an independent state
or an enclave of Jordan under
King Hussein's control.
In welcoming Sadat, Carter
steered clear of sensitive is-
sues. This contrasted with his
statement while greeting Is-
raeli Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin last month that the Jew-
ish state is entitled to "de-
fensible borders," which im-'
plied retention of some of the
Arab territory captured in the
1967 war.
The closest the President
came yesterday to touching on
a controversy was to point out
that in the Middle East there
are "opportunities for improv-
ed trade, economic benefits, for
citizens there to end the mili-
tary arms race' and live in
harmony with one another.
Assassination
probe

hro,,x l r nf h ti LUM I r ev u EU t,
35 yesterday and one of the
victims sued the Mexican rest-
aurant that served the tainted
food.
Health officials estimated
that perhaps 10 or 15 more
cases would emerge by Fri-
day when the eight-day incu-
bation period for the disease
expires, though hundreds of
restaurant patrons were still in
danger - including some be-
lieved to have left the state.
Dr. Robert Locey, Oakland
County health director, ex-
pressed optimism "that some-
how we can get out of this
without any deaths." He said
the fact that no one has died
thus far "is a very bright
sign."
Dr. William Terranova, in-
vestigating the incident for the
Center of National Disease Con-
trol at Atlanta, said the out-
break was an "historic event"
because it gives experts their
first on-the-scene opportunity
to study botulism.
Five new cases of botulism
were reported yesterday and
health officials said they ex-
pected new cases to emerge on
the average of three per day.

LANSING - Customers of
Michigan Bell Telephone Co.I
have been socked with their}
third rate increase in less than
one year, and at least one more
hike seems likely - perhaps
yet this year.
The state Public Service
Commission, on a 2-1 vote yes-
terday, approved a permanent
rate hike of $58.9 million for
Bell.
Bell received a $52 million
rate hike last May and a $22
million interim increase last
November. Yesterday's rate
order includes the interim in-
crease.
The affect of the latest deci-
sion is that the flat rate for
residential service will increase
an additional 6 per cent over
the level approved on an in-
terim basis last November.
Yet another rate hike is likely
because the PSC gave Bell per-

mission to re-open the case af.
ter a settlement is reached
with the Communication Work-
ers of America - the phone
workers' union. The CWA con-
tract expires in August.
Demlow said Bell has es-
timated an additional rate hike
of $34 million may be requested
to cover the cost of any wage
hikes granted.
Such a re-opener clause is un-
precedented . in Michigan, al-
though it has been used in oth-
er states.

WASHINGTON - House of
Representatives Speaker Thom-
as O'Neill said today he be-
lieved the Federal Bureau ofy
Investigation told some wit-
nesses not to tell the Warren
Commission the full truth
about President Kennedy's
murder.
TheMassachusetts Democrat
said the witnesses told him
they were asked by the FBI,
to hold back certain informa-
tion when they testified to the
commission, which investigat-
ed the November 22, 1963, Ken-
nedy slaying.
"I don't believe they gave a
full and honest description,"
O'Neill told reporters. "I think
they were reporting the will off
the FBI."
The speaker did not elabor-
ate but a source close to him
said later he was referring to
a man O'Neill talked with
about the time the Warren
Commission reported its find-I
ings.
'n"When this fellow told them
(the FBI) what he was going to
say, they said 'Well, don't say
all that, it will just confuse
things,"' the source said.
O'Neill made the comment
when asked if he was convinc-
ed the House Committee on
Assassinations really has hard
new evidence justifying the two-
year investigation the House
approved last week.

Vote YES on MSA
PROPOSAL NO. 1
PROPOSAL NO. 1 on the ballot in the current MSA election
is on amendment to the All-Campus Constitution to protect
students from discrimination on the basis of sexual prefer-
ence.
Right now there is little protection for lesbian or gay male
students who face discrimination in admissions, recommen-
dations and fellowships, campus employment, University
housing or membership in campus groups. The passage of
this amendment is a step toward guaranteeing that all stu-
dents including lesbian and gay male students are treated
fairly.
The MSA Election is Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, April 4, 5, and 6. Please remember
to vote and to vote YES on Proposal No. 1.

FAR FROM VIETNAM
(Jean-Luc Godard, Joris Ivens, Claude Lelouch,
Agnes Varda, William Klein, Alain Resnais, 1967)
7 & 9:45-AUD. A
A look at Vietnam, through the eyes of several French filmmakers,
which includes interviews with Fidel Castro and Ho Chi Minh,
and footage of the U.S. peace demonstrations. It "carries" the
angry message that the war in Vietnam is a classic example of a
war of the rich against the poor, and that it is being waged by
the U.S. to demonstrate to the world that revoluion is a dead
end."-Bosley Crowther, New York Times. French with subtitles.
WAITING FOR FIDEL
(Michael Rubbo, 1975) 8:45 only-AUD. A
This hilarious documentary is about an odd assortment of Cana-
dian filmmakers who are promised an interview with Castro that
never comes off. A political satire that mocks filmmakers and
gently reveals the meeting of the minds between the bored, cap-
italistic Canadians and the Cubans in a series of silly conver-
sations.
