Government files suit
to secure age
WASHINGTON (P) - The
government yesterday filed suit
against Idaho and Arizona,
seeking a Supreme Court test
of the 18-year-old vote and two
other provisions of the 1970 vot-
ing rights act early in October.
The J u s t i c e Department,
which filed the suits, did not

However, the department ask-
ed the court to issue an inter-
im order which would allow il-
literate persons in the 14 states
which have literacy tests to reg-
ister for the November 3 gen-
eral elections.
Both Idaho and Arizona in-
formed the department earlier
this month they would not com-
ply with the lower voting age
or the b a n on literacy tests.
Idaho, in addition, refused to
change its residency require-
ments to conform with the uni-
form 30-day period for presi-
dential elections established by
the bill.
The states of Texas and Ore-
gon already have filed suit in
the Supreme Court, seeking to
prevent the Justice Department
from enforcing the controver-
sial provisions.
The suits both by and against
the government are part of the
legal backgrounding intended to

result in a test of the new law's
constitutionality.
The suspension of literacy
tests went into effect when
President Nixon signed the new
law June 22. The 18-year-old
voting provision does not take
effect until January 1, 1971.
In a related development, a
suit was filed in U.S. District
Court here, claiming that youths
in Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands were denied due pro-
cess because those territories
were not included under t h e
18-year-old vote law.
The suit, which named Atty.
John N. Mitchell as defendant,
contended that the exclusion of
18-year-old youths in both ter-
ritories deprived them of their
First Amendment rights.
The government suit against
Arizona covers 18-year-old vot-
ing and suspension of the state's
literacy test. The suit against
Idaho deals with the lower vot-
ing age and that state's resi-
dency requirement.
In one effort to speed up a
Supreme Court decision on the
matter, the Justice Department
asked the court to order Idaho
and Arizona to file responses
within two weeks, and sought a
schedule for submitting briefs
that would allow consideration
of the case by the High Court
in October.
The department estimated
last week that 24 of the 48
states with minimum voting
ages o v e r 18 would go along
with the 18-year-old test.
Ten of the 14 states with lit-
eracy tests indicated they would
drop the requirement, three said
they would not and New Hamp-
shire gave an indefinite re-
sponse.

WOMEN'S RIGHTS:
Ervin to propose
substitute measure
WASHINGTON (R - Sen. Sam J. Ervin (D-NC) un-
veiled a substitute yesterday for the proposed constitutional
amendment approved by the House a week ago to guarantee
equal rights for women under federal and state laws.
Ervin, who plans to introduce his substitute tomorrow
after giving colleagues a chance to join as co-sponsors,
said the House-passed measure would require Congress and
the state legislatures to make all laws apply to men and
women in identical fashion "no matter how irrational or
unreasonable such application may be."
Like the amendment approved -----
by the House by an overwhelm-
ing vote, Ervin's substitute pro- e
vides that equality of rights un-t
der the law shall riot be denied
or abridged on account of sex.
But in addition, it would l
specifically exempt women froma
compulsory military service and
permit the passage any any law#

WASHINGTON {P) - The
Public Health Service (PHS)
said yesterday 16 per cent of
969 water systems tested last
year were potentially hazardous.
Another 25 per cent deliver-
ed drinking water rated infer-
ior by federal standards.
The tests were conducted in
eight metropolitan areas a n d
the state of Vermont to deter-
mine wholesomeness of the pub-
lic drinking supply.
The results justify "real con-
cern over the ability of most
systems to deliver adequate sup-
plies of safe water in the fu-
ture," s a i d James H. McDer-

Bureau of Hygiene.

900,000 of 18.2 million people in
the sample area received poten-
tially hazardous water. Anoth-
er 2 million drink inferior wa-
ter.
Potentially hazardous is de-
fined as failing t h e govern-
ment's least stringent health
standards for chemical and bac-
terial purity.
From the health standpoint,
PHS views a potentially haz-
ardous water supply as one that
should be abandoned or up-
graded because persons have
either become ill or are likely to
become sick from drinking the
water.
The illness can range from
short-term bacterial infections
of the digestive tract to long
term poisoning with such chem-
icals as arsenic and lead.
Inferior means failure to
meet the most stringent stand-
ards.
Inferior water is s a f e, but
may have a bad taste, odor or
appearance, the Public Health
Service said.
The water systems of small
cities and villages were found
the most often seriously sub-
standard.
The most frequent causes of
the potentially hazardous label
were bacterial contamination
and excessive lead from pipes
in the system or home.
Hazardous quantities of ar-
senic, cadmium, chromium, ber-
ium, floride, and selenium also
were found.
The survey uncovered numer-
ous instances of badly struct-
ured and maintained water sys-
tems, of infrequent water sani-
tation and sampling, and of
poorly trained personnel.
Included in the survey were
all water systems in Vermont
and those serving the standard
metropolitan statistical areas of

Migrants in
jail without
seeing. judge
BRIDGETON, N.J. (/P) -
Hundreds of migrant workers
have b e e n jailed in southern
New Jersey without ever seeing
a judge, antipoverty lawyers
said yesterday.
Max Rothman, director of
the farm worker division of the
Camden Regional Legal Servic-
es, a federally funded antipov-
erty agency, charged that farm-
ers are intimidating workers
with the threat of arrest.
Farmers, however, say the
complaints are not correct.
Rothman and two fellow at-
torneys working with the labor-
ers said migrants arrested on
minor charges often are requir-
ed to post bail they cannot af-
ford.
Rothman said that farmers
who hire migrants often control
the rural municipal councils
here and through that control
can influence local police de-
partments.
