45th Year Coming Up
Hoover Won 't Quit FBI
WASHINGTON (UPI)-In a
rare reply to persistent rumors,
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover,
74, said Thursday he had no
intention of retiring and
looked forward to many more
years in the fight to overcome

On Saturday, Hoover marks
his 45th year as the first and
only director of the FBI. He
has become almost an
institution in Washington, with
a reputation of integrity, law
and order that defies critics
who would like to see him go.
An FBI spokesman said,
"the entire FBI is delighted
with Mr. Ho over's
announcement that he has no
intention of retiring."
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy,
D-Mass., said, "there are others

new ideas and initiatives" to
the bureau. But, he added,
"I'm not calling for his
resignation. He's served the
country well in the past."
Hoover responded in a
statement to written questions
submitted by United Press
International. He has not met
with reporters since 1960 and
has refused even to answer
written questions since 1964.
"The past several years," he
said, "have witnessed an
alarming increase in crime in all
areas of the country, coupled
with the mounting acts of
violence by the New Left and
other extremists.
"Indeed, the vicious attacks
on law enforcement by these
elements have posed a crisis for
our society. But I have the
utmost confidence that the
cause of law and order will
prevail."
Noting his coming
anniversary on the job, Hoover
said: "I view the future with
optimism. I firmly believe that
we will meet the challenge
ahead. And I look forward to
many years of sharing in the
efforts of law enforcement to
make this a safer society."
A spokesman said Hoover
considers his 45th anniversary
to be "just another working
day." But it being Saturday,
chances were that the FBI
director would spend the
afternoon at a race track, one
of his favorite pastimes.
In 1964, former President
Lyndon B. Johnson said "the

order waiving indefinitely in
Hoover's case the mandatory
retirement age of 70 for federal
employees. President Nixon
asked Hoover to stay on the
job shortly before he took
office.
A stocky, ruddy-faced
six-footer, Hoover has served
under eight presidents, starting
with Calvin Coolidge.

Examines

KEY BISCAYNE, Fla.
(UPI)-President Nison
examined the Viet Cong's
peace proposal for free
Vietnam elections Thursday to
determine whether it
constitutes a propaganda play
or a genuine desire for a
political settlement.
The President reserved
immediate comment on the
proposal, which provides for
setting up a provisional
coalition government in South
Vietnam to supervise the
elections.
White House Press Secretary
Ronald Ziegler said cables from
Paris outlining the 10 point
peace program put forward by
the National Liberation Front
(NLF), had been under study
by Nixon and his chief foreign
policy adviser, Dr. Henry A.
Kissinger. More sessions on the
matter are scheduled.
Previously the Viet Cong
had demanded that any
settlement be "in accordance
with the program of the NFL,"
an ambiguous phrase generally
taken to mean under
conditions set forth by the
Communists.
The United States is on
record of favoring, the
proposition that South
Vietnam work out its own
political destiny without
coercion, and the government
of Nguyon Van Thieu has
expressed a willingness to deal
with members of the Viet Cong
who renounce the use of force.
The United States is
discussing with South Vietnam
the possibility of limited
unilaterial withdrawal, of
American troops from; the
Vietnam War, diplomatic
sources said Thursday.
These sources said the
administration is understood to
forsee the possibility of
bringing home about 50,000
troops, staring in the second
half of 1969 and spaced over a
period of time. There are
currently 542,000 U.S.
servicemen in the war zone.

Extra Special
Soviet Generals Possibly
Victims Of Air Disaster
LONDON (UPI)-Ten
Soviet generals, who died
within the last, three weeks,
may have been killed in an air
crash or rocket test explosion,
diplomatic reports said
Thursday.
The generals were mostly in
their fifties, with a few in their
early sixties. Several held posts
in air defense and missile
commands.
The death of the tenth
Russian general was announced
Thursday in Red Star,
newspaper of the soviet armed
forces.
The army newspaper said
that in at least two cases
generals died "in tragic
circumstances while
performing their duties."
None of the death
announcements has given
details, nor were any available
elsewhere.
Diplomatic reports reaching
here said some generals may
have died naturally, since
"after all even generals die
some time, especially when
they get older."
But the reference in some
instances to "tragic
circumstances while
performing their

accident,
or more
during a
rocket test, diplomatic
informants said.
Red Star Thursday
announced the death of Lt.
General Yevgeny I Smornov,
51, deputy chief of the central
department of the Ministry of
Defense. The Soviet military
newspaper said he died "after a
short but grave illness."
The string of death notices
began in Red Star just over two
weeks ago when the paper
reported the death "in tragic
circumstances" of Gen.
Marikyan Popov, former chief
of the infantry general staff.
Next came the death
announcement of Gen.
Valentin Penkovsky, former
commander-in-chief of the Far
Eastern area and a deputy
foreign minister.
Last week Red Star
announced the death of Gen.
Anatoly Kadmotsev, who
"died tragically while
performing his duties." He was
49 and commander of the
aviation section of Russia's air
defenses.
Red Star then reported the
"sudden death" of Lt. Gen.
Alexander Dmitriyev, 58, who
headed the political section in
the Caucasus military area.
On Wednesday the death of
Maj. Gen. Igor Antonov, 59,
was announced.
