LOCAL ATTORNEY
Koster declares for state rep

Predicting a citizen's revolt that will "sweep
the Republicans out of the State House in Novem-
ber," Ann Arbor attorney Donald Koster early to-
day announced his candidacy for the State House
of Representatives in the 53rd legislative district
on the Democratic ticket.
He is the only candidate to file for the seat
so far. The deadline is Monday. If other Demo-
crats file, a primary will be held.
Incumbent Republican Rep. Raymond Smit
has announced he will run for re-election.
Koster, 32, who has been in law practice in
Washtenaw County for four years, warned that
"our government must pay attention to young
people. They are citizens with rights and duties
which must be respected if youth is to. view the
state as responsive to their concerns and needs."
Denouncing the war policies of the Nixon ad-
ministration, Koster lashed out at the distortion
of social programs caused by the war economy

to adequately support aid for the poor, education
of the young, or training and research in the
life sciences. Our national and state assets are
wasted on defoliation, destruction and death,"
Koster explained.
"State government must be prepared to deal
with massive unemployment among working peo-
ple as a result of the administrations' so-called
"anti-inflation" policies," Koster said.
"Where is this inflation control," he demanded,
"we don't see it in the grocery stores, doctor and
hospital bills, or the military budget. The gov-
ernor's insurance commissioner has allowed Blue
Shield rates to go up by 47 per cent in the last
six months. This is another example of how state
government has been responsible to special in-
terest groups and big business while ignoring
the needs of the people," Koster added.
"Governor Milliken and his supporters must
answer for the policies which willpUt one of

WASHINGTON (A" - Senate antiwar forces
won a major, probably, decisive victory yesterday
in their month-long drive to restrict future U.S.
operations in Cambodia.
By a vote of 52 to 47 they defeated a key ad-
ministration-backed amendment, sponsored by
Sen. Robert C. Byrd (D-W Va) and prepared
the way for probable adoption next week of the
Cooper-Church amendment to curb both U.S.
action and aid in Cambodia after July 1.
The action constituted a rebuff to President
Nixon. who last week endorsed the Byrd amend-
ment. Opponents contended Byrd's proposal would
have given advance approval to any future U.S.
assaults into Cambodia undertaken in the name
of protecting American forces, in Vietnam.
Both Byrd and Sen. John Sherman Cooper
(R-Ky) co-sponsor with Sen. Frank Church (D-
Idaho) of the Cooper-Church amendment, said
the vote means this amendment will be approved
by the Senate.
But the victory could prove more symbolic than
substantial since the amendment is likely to be
rejected by the House.
However, Senate insistence on it in the Senate-
House conference to follow could jeopardize the
military sales authorization bill, which is the
vehicle for the Cooper-Church amendment. Many
key senators oppose the bill without that pro-
viso, while the administration wants the bill
without it.

WASHINGTON (P) -- Rejecting
arguments the Safeguard antimis-
sile system will be a "worthless" th
defense, the House turned back a
new effort yesterday to halt Safe-
guard construction.
With supporters insisting Safe- 3
g.ard will work, an amendment
by Rep. Sidney R. Yates (D-11)
to kill all $353.8 million for con-
struction at three Safeguard sites
was defeated 98 to 26.

propriation containing a total
$365.8 million for Safeguard de-
velopment, constuction and hous-
ing by a 308 to 57 vote and sent it
to the Senate.
Rep. Robert N. Giaimo (D-
Conn claimed tests have already
shown the antiballistic missile sys-
tem ABM is unreliable. N
He quoted defense testimonyt
that only 11 of the 15 longrange
Spartan antimissiles tested so far
have been completely successful
and 19 of the .38 shortrange Sprint
antimissile tests have been suc-
cessful
"An ABM system that doesn't.
knock out 100 per cent of these
incoming enemy missiles permits
destruction of New York City and
some of our other cities and it's
worthless." Giaimo said.

SAIGON (P) - An estimated
114 South Vietnamese civilians
were killed and another 70
wounded in a two-hour blood-
bath yesterday when Viet Cong
troops overran a village tsouth
of Da Nang, reliable sources
said.
The U.S. Command said 70
civilians were known .killed and
70 wounded in the assault on
Ba Ren, a hamlet of about 2,000
residents 17 miles southeast of
Da Nang.
The assault followed a with-
ering mortar barrage which set
fire to much of the riverside
village.
One U.S. officer, who flew
over the smoldering remains of
the hamlet said it was about 90
per cent destroyed or damaged.
Another officer said in Da
Nang that the bodies of 34
civilians were found in a single
bunker. Some 'had apparently
suffocated, he said, after they
jumped in to escape the attack-
ers and more people fell on top
of them.
Survivors said Viet Cong ran
through the streets of Ba Ren

"shooting anyone they saw,
and hurling grenades into homes
and civilian bunkers. Ba Ren, is
part of Thanh Binh village near
a highway bridge on the Ba Ren
River.
The attack came less than a
week after Viet Cong assault
against another village two miles
south of the same bridge, when
22 villagers were killed and 13
wounded.
Yesterday's attack occurred as
other Viet Cong troops hit an
outpost at the end of the bridge
just north of Ba Ren and man-
ned by U.S. Marines from a
combined action platoon and a
local militia company.
The Viet Cong lost 16 killed
and one captured, government
spokesmen said. South Vietnam-
ese losses were described as
"light" with none killed in fend-
ing off the attack near the
bridge.
One Marine was reported kill-
ed and 11 others wounded in the
fighting around Ba Ren, sources
said, but there was no immi-
diate confirmation of this by the
U.S. Command in Saigon.,
