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 p ' 1 WOW ! A three - piece Treasure Chest chicken dinner, plus french fries.

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.

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# "reasonably designed to pro- mote the health, safety, privacy, education, or economic welfare of women, or to enable them to WASHINGTON (P) - S e n, perform their duties as home- George McGovern (D-SD) said makers or mothers." yesterday he is modifying his In a letter to fellow senators sedahe is mdifyinh urging support of his substitute, way calculated to pick up the Ervin said he is in accord with Senate votes needed td pass it, the objective of invalidating all laws "which make invidious or McGovern spoke at a news unfair discriminations against conference after Vice President women."

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.

Liberty St. DIAL 5-6290 ENDING THURSDAY 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 New York City, Charleston, S.C., Charleston, W.

(/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.

He said this step would "help get a dialogue going" between White House and Congress on foreign policy, a step he said is vital in view of a breakdown of mutual understanding between the two branches.

He said also he will make his amendment apply to simultan- eous withdrawal from Cam- bodia, South Vietnam and Laos.
