"it's likely not to hurt and it may
help."
"After the amont of alcohol &
downers that was consomed last
year,".said Maft Lampe, a sum-
mer concerts coordinator for
Drug IMIp, "selling alcohol in-
side prohably won't make the sit-
uation any worse, and if it's done
right it will help to control it."
Part of the reason al'hol

as very fes signs that the in-

time in a poitical settlement.
They said with the United States
oat of the pictore the insurgents
have no incentive to reach an
agreement with Lon Nol or other
Americarn -suppoirted Cawibo-
dian leiders.
The daily hombing of Cambo-
dia far W ' iiionths, since 10
days after the Januarv Vietnam
peace agreement, had slowed but
nut slapped advances oin Phnoin
Penh by communist - led insurg-
ents. U. S. bombing errors in the
final iseeks of intensive attacks
also killed scores of civilians and
government troops.
The last American raids "incliid-
ed continualestrikes around
PhniiuPenh's perimeter An es-
timated 4,000 insurgents are
massed for an attack west of the
capital' international airport.
THE FATE of the capitail and
its Vs million residents, includ-
ing thousands of refugees, was
open to specolution. The anti-gov-
ernment forces looselv surround
Phnom Penh and control an esti-
mated 80 per cent of the country
militarily.
Premier In fTain of Cambodia
v o w e d his government would
"fight along with the people until
the final victory, both militarily
and politically"
Rumors circulated that In Tam
would resign from the post he
has held since mid-Mav. He de-
nied h'ming any such plans.
ON THE EVE of the bombing
halt, life in Phnom Penh was un-
disturbed. Shoppers and commu-
ters j a m m e d the streets.
The residents could hear the
short thuds of bombs from U. S.
fighter - bombers and the explo-
sions of the B52s's bombs that
sounded like barrels rolling off a
roof.
American air strikes increased
in the final weeks of the bomb-
ing. By the Pentagon's count,
fighter - bombers and iS2s were
average about 22 missions daily

val, recalled Darlene Pond, a
member of the Rainbow Multi-
Media Board of Directors, was
that Drug Help "strongly" op-
posed" sales. "This year they
don't seem too opposed to it,"
she added.
W E W E R E N ' T asked,"
siid another Dr'ig Help summer
concerts coordinator, Mark Rich-
ardson, of the spinsors' decision
to sell alcohol this year. "We're
sat there toi serv-e. We can't ar-
gue."
Rep)rts of friction between
uinlMw Multi-Media and Drug
1he1p on the issie this year were
denied by spokespersons for both
organizations.
According to Ann Arbor Police
('hitWa;lter Krasns, meetings
are now beiig held between rep-
resentati%,s u of his department
and Rainbow Multi-Media to de-
sign gate security and super-
sise alcohol sales.
"WE CAN'T have police watch-
ing every gate and checking ev-
ery I1)," said Krasny. "That's up
to the people themselves." Ac-
cording to Bich and Pond, secur-
itv will be handled as much as
possible by the Psychedelic Ran-
gers, a community policing org-
anization affiliated with the Rain-
bow People's Party (RPP).
Sale of alcohol by Rainbow
Multi-Media, Bach said, also
imeans that profits "will support
Ann Arbor's rainbow commun-
ity" instead of "being lost" to
supermarkets and party stores.
Thirty percent of the profits
from the festisal will go to the
summer Communsity Parks ('on-
cert series, the People's Ball-
room, and the University's Pro-
ject Community, which, is co-
sponsoring the festival.
THE REST of the profits go to
Rainbow Multi-Media, which
Bach called a "broad - based,
wide - ranging organization which
does a lot for the community."
Termed a "rock and roll con-
glomerate" in its public relations
literature, the corporation be-
sides putting on the Blues and
Jazz Festival manages three
bands: Detrotit, Lightnin', and
Uprising.
Although Rainbow Multi - Me-
dia spokespersons say their cor-
poration has no official connec-
tion with the RPP, party chair-
man John Sinclair also heads the
Rainbow Multi - Media Board of
Directors and some RPP mem-
bers work for the corporation.
IN THE PAST the RPP has re-
peatedly denounced the use oft
d o w n e r s and other "con-
trol drugs." According to Pond,
drug education efforts by RPP
and other organizations in the
community have produced "more
consciousness" about the prob-
lem.

laws.
BEALL HAD asked for the
records by last Thursday but
reportedly extended the deadline
at least a week while the vice
president's lawyers pondered the
constitutional q ii e s tIi o n s that
might be involved.
The President has cited the
separation of powers doctrine in
refusing to hand over tape re-
cordings of White House conver-
sations to special Watergate
prosecutor Archibald Cox.
Agnew's letter made the dis-
tinction between his personal
records and the records of the
vice president.
IN RESPONDING to Beall's
request for the personal docu-
ments, Agnew said they are
available in his office and that,
"I am prepared to make them
available immediately."
The Vice President said his
staff has been instructed to give
Beall and his assistants fullest
cooperation and if necessary to
make copies of any of the rec-
ords. He said these copies can be
compared with the originals to
verify their accuracy, indicating
of papers
that Agnew was not going to
allow the documents to be re-
moved from his office.
"As I advised many months
ago, I wish in no way to impede
your investigation," the Vice
President said. 'I have done
nothing wrong. I have nothing
to hide. And I have no desire
save that justice be done speedily
and efficiently. Accordingly, the
records you request are now
available to you."
MEANWHILE, President Nixon
said through a spokesman that he
wanted the federal investigators
to take "all appropriate steps"
in probing allegations that Ag-
new may have been involved in
the alleged bribery and kickback
scandal.
Deputy White House Press
Secretary Gerald Warren said
Nixon was not intervening in
the investigation and had not
sought a report on it from the
Justice Department and he de-
nied reports that Nixon and Ag-
new had discussed the vice
president's resignation.
Those stories, as well as re-
ports that Nixon opposes Agnew's
turning bis personal records over
to the grand jury "are totally
wrong," Warren insisted.
