From AP and UPI WASHINGTON-Attorney General Benjamin Civiletti said yesterday he kept "basic rightness" in mind and used precautions to avoid entrapment during an FBI probe that implicated eight members of Congress in a bribery for favors scheme. Civiletti met with House leaders yesterday and also indicated his department will oppose giving evidence to Congresional investigators in the FBI's political corruption probe. THE ATTORNEY general proposed the meeting with congressional leaders concerned about the FBI investigation. He also appeared at the Senate appropriations subcommitee hearing to discuss the Justice Department's fiscal 1981 budget, but he was drawn into the burning topic of interest on Capitol Hill-allegations that one senator and seven representatives have been implicated in the FBI's "Arab Scam" operation. The investigators posed as rich Arabs with lots of money to distribute in return for immigration and business favors. No indictments have been returned in the case, but the eight names were disclosed publicly over the weekend. Several of those mentioned as targets of the undercover operation have hinted at entrapment and Sen. Ernest Holings (D-S:C.) raised the issue with Civiletti during a hearing. "IF I WERE attorney general, I would have general misgivings," Hollings said. Replied Civiletti, "You have to know all the facts in order to decide." Cohgressional sources who asked not to be identified said Civiletti told leaders that any congressional investigation now would interfere with Justice Department efforts to prosecute its case. ONE SOURCE said the Justice Department officials suggested that Congress delay its investigations for at least three months but the source said it was not clear why that much time is needed. Civiletti was the first official to discuss the scandal before a congressional panel and while he avoided confirming any of the information printed thus far, he talked about entrapment. Under law, investigators cannot prosecute a. person who shows he was not ready to commit a crime but was persuaded to do so by law enforcement officials. CIVILETTI SAID he was not happy with news of the investigation had leaked out before any offical charges have been made, and Justice Department officials said they had been instructed to "hush up." Carter expected to seek women's draft registration Relaxed ati the drop of a coin By STEVE HOOK John Kolisch is in Ann Arbor this week to sell mind control. A nationally known lecturer and instructor in the field of hypnotism, Kolisch is emphatic that by "getting control of their minds," people can overcome many of their daily shortcomings. This week, he is presenting seminars using hypnosis to help people quit smoking, lose weight, and improve their study habits. Last night at the Michigan Theater, appearing more like a magician than a therapist, Kolisch demonstrated his "mind control" to over 200 people. His appearance seemed to tantalyze the spectators, as he engaged in a series of unusual feats of "mind control." Splitting between demonstrations of ESP powers and hypnotism, Kolisch tried to sell his product. AMONG THE FEATS of ESP that Kolisch demonstrated while blindfolded: " He predicted the eight-digit serial number on a ten dolalr bill sent up from the audience; I * He correctely identified a collection of personal possessions gathered from the audience by two volunteers. The group included a pen, gold chain and school ring, and a woman's comb; s Having asked a volunteer to draw a design and three numbers on a chalkboard facing the audience, he correctly identified the drawing as a stickman and the See HYPNOTIST, Page 2 I 2ndWard primary heats up WASHINGTON (AP) - Draft wat- chers at the Pentagon and on Capitol Hill say they think President Carter will ask Congress for authority to, register women for the military, but he may not make the request right away. Although nobody knows for certain, many experts are guessing that Carter will satisfy those who favor registering women by eventually sending Congress a bill asking for such authority. He already has the power to direct young men to register. Asking for authority to register women would transfer the burden for a final decision to Congress, which some predict will reject the measure. AIR FORCE and Navy officials said yesterday there is no military need to include women in draft registration and that it would cost more money and be less effective to operate the armed ser- vices with equal numbers of men and women. The president, who is expected to limit registration to people 18 to 20, has said he expects to "let my people know" his decision tomorrow. His report to Congress on the issue is due Saturday. A top official at the Office of Management and Budget, which is helping prepare the president's report to Congress, said including wbomen would double the number of people being registered but would not cost con- siderably more. This official, who in- sisted on anonymity, outlined the pros and cons Carter is considering in deciding whether to register women. HE LISTED as arguments for registration of women: -The principal of equal rights means A pro-draft rally was held on the Diag yesterday. See Page 3. equal obligations, including the military. -Military studies show that women perform as well as men do in most jobs. -Excluding women from registration would reinforce stereotypes of women that those in favor of equal rights are trying to eliminate. BUT HE SAID the president also is considering these arguments against registering women: -The military needs a pool of four million to five million people, and this could be achieved without registering women. -The military has more jobs for men than for women. -Congressional approval is needed to register women. By JOHN GOYER Mud has begun to fly in the city's Second Ward as two Democrats - incumbent Earl Greene and student challenger Stacey Stephanopoulos - com- pete for their party's endorsement in a Feb. 18 city primary. The Feb. 18 primary will also decide which of four Fifth Ward Republicans will earn that party's nomination. lIn the other three wards, candidates are not com- peting in primaries for party endorsements. BOTH THE Second and Fifth Wards have typically voted partisan - the Fifth Republican and the Second Democratic, s6 party blessings in the two wards will carry weight in the April City Council elec- tions, in which five council members are up for re-, election. Both sides say the campaign will not be decided upon issues, such as steep rents and lack of parking, which have fueled other city elections. This one, they say, hinges on personalities, and which side can con- vine the voters that their candidate will be more productive on council. Stephanopoulos began campaigning in late October saying that Greene has been an ineffective council member and that a student should represent a ward made up mostly of students. SHE GAINED the support of two City Council members, Leslie Morris (D-Second Ward) and Ken Latta (D-First Ward), and the mud began to fly. Elected officials traditionally withhold endorsements until after a primary. "There are problems with what he produced," Lat- ta said of Greene yesterday. "The main issue of the campaign is simply, "What has Earl Greene done?' "said Marc Abrams, a law student and advisor to Stephanopoulos' campaign. "We've registered God knows how many new voters and we have a huge core of volunteers - and we have them out there working," Abrams said. But, according to Abrams, Greene's campaign has nowhere near" that number of volunteers.
