For Campaigning
WASHINGTON - Congress adjourned

approving legislation to save passenger

the 91st Congress convened last January.
Republicans pointed to unfinished
business left for the first post-election
session in two decades, starting at noon
Nov. 16.
Before they called it quits, the House

the White House bills that would:

constitution, how far must i school board
go in seekhg racial balance in its
classrooms?
Uppermost were questions such as:
does a black child have a constitutional
right to attend a racially mixed school?
What is an appropriate Black-White ratio?
Must a school board bus children several
miles to achieve a racial balance?
What are the rights of a black child in
cloaking an American plan to prolong "its
occupation" of South Vietnam.
The lengthy statement, broadcast in
English and recorded by government
monitors here, said that the North
Vietnamese government agreed with the
rejection statements issued by the Viet
Cong regime.

government of the Provisional
Revolutionary Government of the
Republic of South Vietnam ("the Viet
Cong) sternly condemn and categorically
reject the deceptive 'peace' proposal
made by the Nixon administration," the
foreign ministry statement said.
The statement was seen here as the
apparently formal rejection of Nixon's
proposal, put forth a week ago
Wednesday in an address to the nation.
Hanoi's statement said his call for an
international conference on Indochina "is
nothing but a cunning trick aimed at
fooling public opinion, hiding the fact
that the U. S. is obduartely maintaining
its aggressive stand against Vietnam, Laos,
and Cambodia."
The North Vietnamese government
statement said the Viet Cong's eight-point
i peace plan of Sept. 17 remained the
proper basis on which to settle the
Vietnam problem.

From the time of the historic decision
cf 1954 unit" very recently the court W3s
unanimous on the school question. The
Qt-0 term saw the first split of any
sizr.ificance. Questions from the bench
during the past few days indi;ated the
justices are troubled about many things.
Considerable time could be consumed
in formulating a majority position. More
than one member of the court might also
wish to express himself separately.
Before the 1954 opinion was handed
down, two rounds of arguments were
heared in consecutive terms. But Chief
Justice Warren E. Burger has said that the
country is in critical need of answers to
the school desegregation questions raised
in the case that consolidates issues raised
in Charlotte, N. C, Mobile, Ala., and
Clarke County, Ga.
Solicitor Gener.tl Erwin N. Griswold,
in an apparent strengthening of the Nixon
administration's antisegregation posture,
told the Court on the final day of
arguments thai "neighborhood schools"
are merely the "base" for doing away
with dual systems and that man other
methods are also required to try to end
segregation.

for the charges is "so there can at least be
an inquiry into where the true fault of
My Lai lies. ' "
