Rogers declared today that in deciding on further withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam “we’re prepared to take sensible risks for peace.” Rogers told a news conference that while a lull in the war in Vietnam had been broken by a surge of enemy- activity on Aug. 11 and 12, “On the whole enemy activity over the last two months has been somewhat less than previously.” ★ ★ ★ Rogers said that the United States had responded to a lull — initiated by , the Communists in June — in an effort to lower the level of combat but he refused to say precisely what battle orders were given. He also said that the United States is prepared to respond further to' enemy cutbacks in activity. The emphasis of Rogers’ comment on the lull and on “sensible risks for peace” appeared to support the expectation that President Nixon will announce new troop reductions toward the end of the month, although the final decision is yet to be made. . On other issues, Rogers said: • The current anniversary of the Soviet Invasion of Czechoslovakia a year "ago “serves as a grim reminder with ominous overtones of the'difficulty we have” in trying to negotiate and resolve differences with the Soviet Union. ~ • The United States and its NATO allies are closely watching the heavily expanded Soviet naval force in the Mediterranean and NATO “is going to take any necessary action to be sure the security of the area is hot impaired.” • The Nixon administration is aware of congressional concern that the United States might be dragged into a land war in Thailand and Rogers asserted that if a crisis should arise raising that issue “We will consult with Congress, we Will PAUSE THAT REFRESHES—Eleven-year-old Carl Wright ap wiraphot* pauses to get a,drink from a broken water pipe while cleaning couldn’t explain why the water was still flowing but noted up debris at his father’s service station in Gulfport, Miss., that most passersby stopped for a drink of the now-scarce which wai damaged by Hurricane Camille.

Materials experts say they are puzzled by the move.. Titanium is being used increasingly in American military as well as civilian aircraft. A few weeks ago the first Soviet merchant ship to call on the United States this decade docked at Seattle, to deliver 900 tons of sponge titanium — as it is referred to in its intermediate production form. And now officials say the same ship is bringing another big load to the United States next month. FAR ABOVE ’88 The Soviets sent only 421 tons of sponge titanium to this country in all of 1968, with ships of other flags importing it. The United States has a domestic titanium production capacity of its own but is unable to compete with Soviet or Japanese prices. Some officials suspect the Soviets may be trying to undercut the fledgling U.S. titanium industry, possibly to disrupt its progress. ^ American companies can get Soviet titanium for $1 per pound, about 30 cents b^low prices charged by U.S producers and about 20 cents below the Japanese price. it it ★ One materials expert figures that the Soviets have excess titanium production capacity at the moment and may be dumping the metal in this country at a loss. An industry source suggested the ^otlar^Whife'is)iW9M^‘thtdr t^cesg titanium stocks. ’ j A big surge in U.S. demand for titrfhium—favored because of its high' strength-to-weight ratio — is forecast over the next few years.

An 18-year-old floor girl at a Boardwalk auction, Judy Golberg of Levit-town, Pa., said she hated brassieres. “1 hardly ever wear one.” ’MUCH AIRIER’ Cynthia Dimon, a 21-year-old Ohio Wesleyan University student who wears high-waisted braless dresses on her summer job as a newspaper reported explained: “It’s a habit I picked up at school. Going without them is so much airier and less confining." Bernice Caapaldo, a 22-year-old Paterson, N.J. high school teacher, acknowledged what was apparent as she wtndowshopped. “Whenever possible, I never wear a bra. 1 put one on only when I really dress up. I’m inhibited without one then.” Kathy Pasterczyk, Ifi, of Pittsfield, Pa., confided that she feels “awfully stuffy” in bras. The girls admitted to owning brassieres but preferred to stash them in a closet. ★ ★ ★ But not all the girls approve of the trend. Cathy Meighan, a 21-year-old nightclub waitress, wants no part of the : ban-the-bra movement. “1 don't know too many guys who go for the flat-cheBted look,” she stated. Despite it all, store clerks at lingerie counters maintain that droopy fashions haven’t harmed sales curvet. Business, they claim, is as big as ever.

Hie company has until Sept. 4 to reply. * * * The demands were laid on the bargaining tahle Tuesday as the UAW and American Motors opened negotiations on an agreement to replace a current two-year pact' running out Oct. 16. The union said, however, it was prepared to negotiate "in the light of the economic situation" at AMC and "we certainly have no intention of putting the company out of business." Frank G. Armstrong, AMC vice-president-administration, promised the union a "reply in detail" Sept. 4, but said yesterday it would be premature to express himself frifiiSut further study of the demands. UAW Vice President Pat Greathouse took only an hour in outlining the union's proposals, including one that the new contract be for only 10 months and 26 days. ★ ★ * That, Greathouse pointed out, would permit the new AMC contract to expire on Sept. 4, 1970, along with three-year agreements signed in 1967 with the big Three of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. Then in financial straits, AMC got T two-year pact with a five-cent wage differential and was permitted to forego some fringe benefits, such as higher pensions, woh at the Big Three. The fourth U.S. auto maker's financial situation has reversed since, and it now is in the black. AMC reported a profit of $8.9 million for its 1967-68 fiscal year, and $7.8 million for the first three quarters of the current year. To match Big Three wages, it would have to add the fivprceBt. general increase it omitted in 1967, plus an eight cent hourly - cost-of-living adjustment going into effect Oct. 27 and a 3 per cent - automatic across-the-board pay boost effective Nov. 24. Based on an average hourly straight time wage of $3,79 now prevailing at American Motors, the package would increase direct payroll costs slightly more than 24 cents hourly. k k k The average hourly straight time pay . at the Big Three now is figured at $3.83. ■k k ★ Greathouse said AMC’s new, short contract need not necessarily duplicate those with any of the Big Three, but that the union wants "the total economic benefits in line with them."

EDGARTOWN, Mass. (AP) - The inquest that opens on Sept. 3 into the death of Mary Jo Kopechne is a long-established way in Massachusetts law to determine file legal cause of death, as distinct from the medical cause. What can the Inquest hope to accomplish? In the words of one former prosecutor, "An inquest... Is used to clear the air and close the books publicly on a case about which questions have arisen." Miss Kopechner 28, a Washington, D.C. secretary, was kilted July 18 when a car driven by Sen. EdWard ;M. Kennedy of Massachusetts went off a bridge into a pond on Chappaquiddick Island. The accident went unreported for nine hours, Dist. Atty. Edmund Dinls sought and obtained ihe court order for the inquest to determine, in his words, if the girl's death "may have resulted from the act or negligence of a person or persons other than the deceased.".

Protests Erupt as Police Patrol Prague Streets PRAGUE (AP) -■ Riot police and troops patrolled Prague today, ready to crack down oh anything that looked like a demonstration on the first anniversary of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia. About 500 riot police clubbed and tear-gassed crowds to clear Wenceslas Square three times last night, but after each attack allowed the throngs to return. Twenty persons were believed ' arrested and three were injured. ★ ★ ★ The show of police force apparently was intended to emphasize the warnings from Communist party leaders against anti-Soviet demonstrations to protest the invasion that started one year ago tonight. , No such demonstrations were observed liast night. The crowds stood silent and sullen, refusing to heed police orders to move on. When force was used, they taunted file police with Whistles and cries oi "Gestapo! Gestapo!" POLICE ACCUSED In sige streets leading to tfye square were scenes reminiscent of the debates last yfar, when young Czechs asked Soviet tank crews why they had come and why they didn’t go home. This time young Czechs accused their own people, the police, of making trouble and told them to go home. A new underground leaflet appeared today accusing the police and hard-line Communists of planning to incite the people into a -revolt. The leaflet warned against provocateurs and urged the people to limit themselves to -passive demonstrations on the invasion anniversary. The leaflet charged that the police and the old guard, aided by Soviet agents, would try to provoke the public into acts of insurrection.

Automotive—2nd Floor ^ z " 'tyjr n r,p B "l. -1 d4 Protests Possible Loss of Income Fine Bill Irks Township WEST BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP -A proposed state bill directing that violation fines collected by townships be paid directly into the State library Fund has angered the Township Board here. Currently, all or part of the fines for ordinance violations go back to toe political subdivision whose ordinance was violated, as per legislation enacted t toe first of this year. TOWNSHIPS 2ND CLASS “Another case of townships being second^lass municipalities," claimed a letter from Township Attorney Joseph T. Brennan to Joseph Parisi, executive director of the Michigan Townships association. The letter, read to the board this week, urges the association to fight House Bill 2677. : The present bill (HB 2677) would repeal the earlier legislation. Prior to Jan. 1, fines netted from township ordinance violations were payable to toe State library Fund. January’s legislation reversed the prior practice. HB 2677, in effect, seeks to reverse the reversal. A HOOKER “Although HB 2677 seems innoqpous enough . . . and even appears to be a benefit to townships by increasing our fining power from $100 to $500, there is a hooker here . . . ," Breenan’s letter said. The catch is the phrase, “fines, penalties and forefeitures shall be payable in the same manner and to the same fund as fines for the violation of the laws of state," Brennan said. State fines go to the Library Fund, he noted. Township Supervisor ,John Doherty in- dicated that if the fines were taken away, the township would retain only toe “questionable honor" of bolding court here. , * * A * The township paid for the physical installation of the new district court op the third .floor of Township . -Hall. The trustees also budgeted $5,000 from the nfew year’s operating budget for court costs. No revenue other than fines comes to the township from the court. MAINTENANCE COSTS Board members agreed that township residents should be alert to the Legislature’s proposal in jview of the township’s court maintenance costs. it it it Doherty declared, “Thieves, killers, dope addicts, speeders and other lawbreakers who are using the court should have to pay for it, instead of the taxpayer.’'1 Doherty added, "The community provides the court to see that justice is metal. But if there were no lawbreaking — there would be no need for a court.” Water-Level Fees to Be Discussed 'WHITE LAKE TOWNSHIP - Lakeside residents are invited to an 8 p.m. meeting tomorrow to a discussion of “inconsistent’’ water-level assessments.

Mintflng Mltar Ireland Cries for Unity Heavy, heavy, the burden of history hangs over troubled Ireland. What insanity, that three centuries after the bitter religious wars that wracked Europe and in a time of ecumenism when men have at last begun to emphasize their similarities instead of their differences, that a civilized nation should plunge itself into virtual civil war, with one sect against another. Catholic-Protestant prejudice and distrust is not the sole basis of the strife in Northern Ireland, of course. The politics of it date back to the days of Elizabethan imperialism and England’s attempt to secure its hold on Ireland by importing Scottish Protestant settlers. Far beyond that, there are ancient roots in ethnic conflict—Celt vs. Anglo-Saxon. religious differences and the problem of Ireland would long ago have been solved. We cannot escape history, said Lincoln. Neither can men escape the future. Irish Catholic and Irish Protestant must someday live in harmony and equality and cooperation. Both sides must someday cast off the deadly burden of history that for so many generations has pressed them into the mire of hatred and bloodshed. But remove the question of How much more pain must they inflict on one another, and on their children, before they learn that? How many generations more will they betray the very religions they profess to follow? Devaluation of the franc may appear far away and of little concern to Americans, other than the tourists among us in a position to cash in immediately on the sudden 12.5 per cent bonus in the dollar’s purchasing power in France, but such is the interdependence of the world today that this is far from being the case. Chronic weakness of the franc in recent years has contributed greatly to an uneasy international economic balance, and that has had its effect on our lives and the value of our dollars here at home. kets were quiet and thus catching speculators off balance. Fortunately, what might possibly have been an immediate result of devaluation, a renewed attack on the dollar along with the shaky British pound, has so far shown no signs of materializing. In large part, this may be due to the exquisite timing of the French move carried through, when world money mar- This might be expected of President Pompidou, considering his background in high finance. There is also a political angle. With devaluation, Pompidou has taken his longest step to date out of the shadow of Charles de Gaulle, who steadfastly refused to consider such a move despite continued shrinking of French reserves. Despite the flak he is encountering inside France as a result of concurrent efforts to hold the lid on price and wage increases, Pompidou stands to reap political advantage by establishing himself as a president with his own convictions and the skill to carry them out. ★ ★ ★ Hopefully, devaluation also marks another step away from De Gaulle’s play-it-alone stance and toward a role in the international community based on practicality, not pompous pride.

HARL R. DOUGLASS Readers Give Opinions on Recent Cartoon 'Father, Forgive Them David Lawrence Says: A recent editorial page cartoon showed five hippies holding a sign which read, “Give 18-year-olds the vote,” and.was captioned “Let Us Drive.” This is not how all youth look. Not all are irresponsible. The youth of today has minority factions, as do adult groups. Not all of us support them. Some 18,19, and 20-year-olds are old enough to curry an M-14 or M-16, wear a uniform and fight in a war. Why shouldn‘t they get the vote?

PAUL HOFFMAN 4166 GRAYTON WASHINGTON - Will television programs be as good after cigarette sponsors are compelled by a government agency to prohibit cigarette advertising? This will deprive the TV companies of more than $200 million a year in revenue. The controversy that has | arisen over the! attempt to bsn | cigarette «d- UWRENCE vertising on radio and television is not as simple as it seems.

Meanwhile, the broadcasting industry is trying to apply the “fairness” doctrine qnd give space on the air to warnings from various organizations concerning the alleged dangers in cigarette smoking. MUST TAKE STAND Sooner or iater, the Nixon Administration is going to have to take a position on the question. It will be interesting to see whether the policy adopted will be a discrimination as between television on the one hand and printed publications on the other. Certainly it seems inconsistent to impose restrictions on what the people may see on television and perhaps read in the newspapers, too, about products that have not been barred from manufacture and sale.

I was offended by the cartoon on your editorial page recently depicting a carload of long-haired, carefree youths sporting a sign “Give 18-year-olds the VOTE!!!” An obviously establishment gentleman was attempting to maintain control of the car, despite the caption, “Let Us Drive.” You would need to ignore hundreds of examples of serious, responsible youth before finding the scene you depict in yoiir cartoon.

Many persons do not realize that the television networks and all the stations together collect about 62.5 billion a year from advertising and special programs they sell to each other, but that their expenses are more than 62 billion. Thus, they have about 6500 million left before federal taxes. About one-half tpat sum remains ax profit. If cigarette commercials are forbidden, the competition for the remainder of the advertising will, therefore, become even keener between the television stations and the printed publications.

LOCH MORAR, Scotland OJPiv — The way William Simpson and Duncan McDonell tell it, they were rowing across Loch Morar when up came a monster. The two Sunday fishermen said the thing from the deep lake was 60 feet long, had round humps, was dark brown and came at their 18-foot boat. McDonell said he jammed an oar at the Ldch Morar monster.

Vehicles are clocking close to SO billion miles a year in the state,-the department said. The volume is recorded continuously with automatic counters placed at 53 rural locations. ★ * * The largest traffic Increase was in southeastern Michigan with a gain of 12.9 per cent. The increase in travel in other areas was 2.9 per cent in the western Upper Peninsula, 6.8 in the eastern Upper Peninsula, 5.8 per cent in the northern Lower Peninsula, 7.2 per cent in the south central Lower Peninsula,| and 3.9 per cent in the southwestern Lower Peninsula. The action of certain tissues In plant \roots has some common' features with action of animal tissues such as muscles, nerves and stomach mucosa, according to recent studies. They suggest a Navy build ! around up to 24 attack aircraft carriers — there now are 15 — ; could take on much of the U.S. j defense effort abroad if this j country reduces its foreign land I bases. . ★ * ★ i One of the three admirals ! said the United States has no air bases of its own in southern Europe, may lose them in Okinawa and the Philippines and could only questionably maintain them in Thailand after Vietnam. “The political vulnerability of Loverseas bases is high," he said. “And if we find we need carriers we’d better have them on hand.” I FUTURE PROSPECTS | The strategists said the Navy i also is studying future prospects I for keeping troops and equipment on ships around the world ready to move ' into trouble areas. Their description of the shape the Navy might take in the future came at a “deep background” press seminar at which foreigp, affairs specialists and ever!"military spending critics had any opportunity to' comment on the Navy’s future. Ground rules forbade quoting anyone by /tame without specific permission. ★ ★ * Greater reliance on attack careers drew a guarded endorsement from Robert Sherman, 'an aide to*. Sen. George S. McGovern, D-S.D. ★ * ★ ' “Foreign bases like those in Thailand could suck us Into another Vietnam,” Sherman said. “If we must have tactical air power abroad — and I’m not sure we must — I feel much more comfortable having it on carriers." NOT ON HAND But the Army and Air Force were not on hand at the seminar to challenge such a heavy future Navy role. Even without'’ such an accelerated future role, the admirals said, the Navy will need an extensive program t o modernize its ships, 58 per cent of which are more than 20 years old, and keep pace with a Soviet naval buildup that threatens to surpass the .United States’ by 1975. * ★ ★ Congressional proposals to cut the U.S. attack carrier fleet to 12 were, condemned by the admirals and foreign policy specialists alike at the conference. They said the U.S. withdrawal of an attack carrier from any areas — particularly the Mideast —wquld be interpreted by allies as a lowering of U.S. interest in that area. ★ * * ’ The press seminar* w a s ' sponsored by Georgetown University’s Center for Strategic-' ---'a-ffd'-'International Studies .which promotes research Into basic U.S. policy issues.
