pellets
BERKELEY, Calif. UP-Police
in this University of California
city with a history of campus-
related disorders are now using
anti-riot weapons firing wooden
pellets "which sting like the
dickens but don't penetrate the
skin."
"The rioters have started get-
ting cute on us," Lt. Michael
Healy told a newsman Monday.
'They don't get close to you.
They hold back to the distance
they can throw rocks from. But
this pellet-thrower, which we
found in Hong Kong, gives us
access to them."
The blunt-wooden pellets have
caused no serious injuries thus
thus far, Healy said.
"What they do is administer
the amount of punishment a bil-
ly club would," he explained.
"But of course these people, with
their planned 'events," never get
close enough any more for an
officer to quell them personally."
Healy said the weapon-de-
scribed as new to the United
States-helped stop a disturb-
ance last Saturday when some
500 demonstrators rampaged
through streets after an "Anti-
Honor America" rally, breaking
windows and throwing rocks at
police.
The pellets, like slices of a
one-inch-diameter broomstick,
are stacked five deep in a metal
cartridge like a shotgun shell.
Thepellets "are circular, insur-
ing against skin penetration,"
Healy said.
The shells are loaded into a
gun similar to a tear gas launch-
er with a 1'/-inch-diameter
barrel and fired with compressed
gas, not gunpowder.

WASHINGTON (-P) - The Democratic party
broadcast filmed excerpts from President Nixon's
speeches and news conferences last night in a new
political campaign technique to accuse him of
"ringing calls for action" but obtaining few results.
Democratic National Chairman Lawrence F.
O'Brien said there are results only when the
Democratic-controlled Congress "takes the ini-
tiative and calls the shots."
The 25-minute broadcast, on radio and color
TV, was carried by CBS as free time demanded
by the Democrats to answer President Nixon's
statements during his 18 months in office.
The program, labeled "The Loyal Opposition;
Part One," included the following excerpts:
Nixon-in his inaugural address: "We cannot
learn from one another until we stop shouting at
one another-until we speak quietly enough so
that our words can be heard as well as our voices."
O'Brien--"But today the divisions within our
society are far greater than they were 18 months
ago."
Nixon-in his inaugural: "In pursuing our
goals of full employment, better housing, excel-
lent education; in rebuilding our cities and im-
proving our rural areas; in protecting our environ-
ment and enhancing the quality of life-in all

these and more, we will and must press urgently
forward."
O'Brien-"Unfortunately, in most areas we
see little or no progress; we share the concern
of all Americans with the decline in our economy.
Nixon--Jan. 30, 1970, news conference: "I
would simply say that I jo not expect a recession
to occur."
O'Brien- "Regrettably, the President's expec-
tations have not materialized, and, as so many of
you are painfully aware, we have inflation and
recession at the same time."
O'Brien also said Nixon "must use his great
personal influence to roll back inflationary wage
and price decisions, just as President Kennedy and
President Johnson did on many occasions.
"Right now-tonight-Mr. Nixon could direct
the lowering of interest rates on home mortgages,
car loans and the clothes you buy on credit from
a department store," O'Brien said.
Five hours before the taped show was broad-
cast the deputy Republican national chairman,
James N. Allison Jr., called a news conference to
accuse the Democrats of "attempting one of the
greatest 'con' jobs in the history of American
politics."

NY EXPLOSIONS:
Consulates bombed

NEW YORK (A)-Homemade
bombs were planted near three
foreign nation offices yesterday,
and one of them blew up and
slightly injured three persons.
Another device exploded at the
old World's Fair grounds.
The foreign offices were the
Haitian and South African con-
sulates and the Portuguese tour-
ist agency.

The injured were in the Hai-
tian consulate in a building at
42nd Street east of Madison
Avenue. A pipe bomb exploded
in a 13th-floor hallway outside
the consulate. There was no
immediate estimate of damage.
Another pipe bomb was found
by an employe outside the 14th-
floor offices of the South Afri-
can consulate at Madison Av-
enue and 60th Street. A police
bomb squad later dismantled it.
An unidentified youth posing
as a deliveryman was seen de-
positing a package on a stair-
well of a building at Fifth Av-
enue and 46th Street, where the
Portuguese tourist agency has a
fourth-floor office.
