a government spokesman reit-
erated that stand yesterday,
saying, "There is no suggestion
that any constitutional matters
will be discussed."
The security chiefs said a
white construction worker, Rob-
ert Bruce Scott, 29, was among
the 10 civilian victims of the
latest wave of violence. They
said Scott was shot as he pick-
ed up a work gang from a
black hotel in an area where
guerrillas are active. They said
a black bystander was also
killed.
FIVE OTHER civilians were'
killed by security forces-four
black women accompanying a
band of guerrillas and a black
civilian who died of wounds
after being shot in a curfew
area.
The government officials did
not list any casualties among
security forces.
Scott was the 47th white civ-,
jian to lose his life in the guer-
rilla war, according to govern-
ment accounts. More than 550
black civilians have been re-
ported killed.

up from $8.15 to $9.34.
HOWEVER, many tradesmen
have complained their wage
increase is not sufficient. They
also have griped about not
getting adequate representa-
tion within the union, and bar-
gainers' failure to protect them!

contractors.
UAW President Leonard
Woodcock has said the strike
will continue if the national
pact, put together late last
Tuesday, is rejected by the
tradesmen. However, he has ex-
pressed confidence the accord
will be ratified.
In the last round of talks in
1973, Ford tradesmen rejected
the settlement and forced bar-
gainers to renegotiate provi-
sions concerning a newly ac-
quired right to refuse overtime
work. The union then declared
the pact ratified without sub-
mitting it to a second vote.
That provoked threats from
tradesmen who said they would
bolt from the UAW and set up
their own union. The leadership
placated them by promising
them a clear veto in the next
contract.

Palestinian gunmen raided Sy-
rian embassies in Italy and
Pakistan yesterday, apparently
hoping to avenge Syria's inter
vention against the Palestinian
guerrillas in Lebanon and to
seize hostages and force con-
cessions from Syria.
In Rome, three men with sub-
machine guns and grenades
strode into the embassy in the
fashionable Parioli district, shot
and seriously wounded a diplo-
mat and held five hostages for
two hours before surrendering
to police.

attackers in Rome had hoped to
take the Syrian ambassador'
hostage and then present de-
mands such as the withdrawal
of Syrian troops from Lebanon
or their surrender to Palestin-
ians and the release of 100 Pal-
estinians jailed in Syria. The
ambassador was not present.

C4RTER, WHILE not accus-
ing Ford of any wrongdoing,
has criticized long-term, federal
officials .who develop close
friendships with lobbyists, as
Ford acknowledges having done.
"I personally resent this at-
tack on my integrity," Ford
was quoted as saying in the
interview. "He knows the
charges are not true. They are
pure demagoguery.?"
In a statement issued yester-
day, Carter also assailed Ford
for trying to take credit dur-
ing the foreign policy debate
for signing a bill that imposed
tax penalties on U.S. firms that
cooperate with an Arab trade
boycott against Israel.
"He fought tooth and nail
against such a bill," said the
Carter statement, which includ-
ed a copy of a letter from
Treasury Secretary William"Si-
mon to Sen. Abraham Ribicoff,
D-Conn., a member of the Sen-
ate Finance Committee, criticiz-
ing such legislation.
"It is time that Mr. Ford
told the American people the
truth --that he has done noth-
ing meaningful to break the
back of the boycott - that he
has opposed every effort to de-
clare the boycott illegal. .
Carter said.

THE PQT COULD BE THE KEY TO YOUR FUTURE.

STEVE'S LUNCH-

HOME COOKING IS OUR SPECIALTY

If you are receiving a degree in Mathematics
or Language before September 1977, the
National-Security Agency's Professional
Qualification Test (PQT) can be the key to
a rewarding career.
You must register by November 6 in order
to take the PQT on campus-it will not be
given again during the school year. By
scoring well on. this test, you will qualify
for an employment interview. During the
interview, an NSA representative will
discuss the role you might play in furthering
this country's communications security
or in producing vital intelligence infor-
mation.

i

The PQT helps to measure your aptitude
for career areas such as:
LANGUAGES-Foreign languages are
valuable tools for research, analysis, and
documentation projects. Advanced training
in your primary language or perhaps a new
language can be expected.
COMMUNICATIONS--Developing and
testing logical designs for global communi-
cations is a unique pursuit. It follows that
your training programs in this area will be
both extensive and esoteric.
PROGRAMMING -Our vast communications
analysis projects could not be effectively.
managed without the latest computer.
hardware/software and people who know
how to use them.
PICK UP A PQT BULLETIN at your college
placement office. It contains a registration form
which you must mail prior to November 6
in order to take the test on November 20.
Electronic Engineering, Computer Science,
Slavic, Mid-Eastern and Asian language
majors may interview without taking the
PQT.
Citizenship is required.
