certain the government's new gasoline
allocation program would shorten lines at
service stations and fuel rationing would not
be needed, even when families take their
summer vacations.
Simon said the allocation Friday of an
extra 240 million gallons of gasoline to hard
hit states plus a 2-cent a gallon increase in
retail prices announced Saturday would
"reduce the sufferings, hardships and
inconveniences" being faced by the
American people.
Although gasoline stations were reported
closed in many states for lack of gasoline,
spokesman for independent retail dealers in
at least seven states indicated they were
satisfied by the 2-cent a gallon increase,
effective March 1, and had abandoned plans
for a massive "pumpouf to protest their
declining profits.

FL-CIO seeks minimum vjage hike
LUAt.M BEACH The AFL-CIO renewed its call Sunday for Congress to pass a
minimum wage increase without the special lower rate for teen-agers demanded by
President Nion. ...
Congress approved a bill last year to raise the minimum wage from its present rate
of $1.63 an hour to $2.20 but Nixon vetoed It because it did not include the lowered
youth minimum.
"The Congress must act now," the AFL-CIO Executive Council said at its winter
meeting here. .

prospect that the Liberals could win enough seats in the House of Commons to hold
the balance of nower between the two major parties.
Three major poils gave the Conservatives respective percentage leads of 1, 2 and 4

Simon said the allocation program was
only three weeks old and should not yet be
judged as a failure. He said the available
gasoline was distributed poorly within each
state and efforts would be made fo equalize
intrastate delivery systems.
"But in the interim, we are going to make
certain we put supplies out to reduce lines in
the critical areas where they are suffering
hardships, Simon said.
He was interviewed on NBCs "Meet the
Press.
Simon said demand for gasoline
normally would increase as vacation time
approaches. But he added, conservation
efforts by the American people combined
with a perfected allocation system "will
greatly alleviate greater shortages.

said when he is asked how families should
plan their summer vacations, he usually
replies: You should plan it so that the round
trip does not use more than a tankful of gas."
Simon said the full impact of the new

Nixon aide for
WASHING I ON John K. Andrews, Jr.,
a former White House aide and speech
writer, said Sunday President Nixon should
be impeached.
Andrews, who resigned last December,
said the question of Nixon's impeachment is
one that I approach with terrible
reluctance."
An.d it's the saddest subject I've ever had
to consider as a citizen of this country,"
Andrews said. "But I'd have to say yes ..."
Andrews called for the president's
impeachment in an interview on the
National Public Affairs Center for
Television show "Washington Straight
Talk." He is the first former White House
aide to do so publicly.
Andrews said, he still saw a chance for
Nixon to recoup; but added "there are no
outward signs that he's going to be moving
this way.
"As painful as it would be for the country,
I think to preserve our .self-respect as a
democracy. .'.the public trust must not be
abused, whether by omission as he has done
it, or by overt commission." he said.
Andrews said he did not think that Nixon
would resign "because he believes sincerely
that he has done no wrong, that he is a man
persecuted."
But he added "I'm' afraid that the

Ford says defense
budget is 'realistic9
NEW YORK Vice President Gerald R.
Ford Sunday defended President Nixon's
record defense budget request as necessary
to deter aggression and reduce the threat of
war in the world.
In remarks prepared for delivery to the
B'Nai Zion America-Israel Friendship
Dinner, where Ford received the 1974
America-Israel Friendship gold medal, the
-vice president-said to have 'peace; the United
States "must have strong enough defenses to
deter aggression."
He described Nixon's proposal to spend
$85.5 billion on defense in fiscal year 1975 as
"realistic" and said it will reinforce the
credibility of American power.
Ford said he hoped negotiations toward
strategic arms limitation and mutually
balanced force reductions will be successful
in preserving the present balance of power
and reducing the threat of war.

Asked if he thought Nixon was guilty of'
wrongdoing, Andrews said his reading of
Nixon's character does not lead him to
believe the President is guilty of criminal
wrongdoing.
"I think that he... is chargeable or must
be held responsible for political offenses, not
criminal offenses; of abuse of power or
permitting power he delegated to be abused;
offenses of negligence or derelection in
seeing that the laws are faithfully executed."
Nnnom imteTvemtloii claimed
WASHINGTON President Nixon
personally overruled prosecution of suspects
in the alleged 1971 Pentagon spy ring in
order to keep the affair quiet. The New York
Times said Sunday in a report quoting
"sources close to the inquiry."
Times reporter Seymour M. Hersh said
his sources described Nixon as "extremely
angry" when he learned of the alleged spying
inside the White House. But theysaid Nixon
apparently decided trials would spark a
national scandal and compromise national
security interests.
One of Hersh's sources quoted John D.
Ehrlichman, then a presidential adviser in
charge of the spy ring investigat ion, as telling
him: "The President called me off it. He said.
"John, if you prosecute this you'll blow the
whole thing open.'"
The White House declined comment on
the Times report.
In testimony before the Senate Armed
Services Committee last week. Navy
Yeoman Charles E. Radford said he
regularly stole documents on secret U'S.
diplomacy from the National Security
Council, Henry A. Kissinger and Gen.
Alexander M. Haig on the instructions of
admirals Robert O. Welander and the late
Rembrandt C. Robinson.
Radford said the admirals, his bosses
when he was a clerk on. a White House
military liaison unit, passed the documents
to the Pentagon, which was being frozen out
of some aspects of developing relations with
China, the Soviet Union and North
Vietnam.
his next trip to the Middle East.
The document said Latin America would
"continue examining" an offer made by
Kissinger to reduce friction over
expropriations of American-owned
property by Latin American governments.
Kissinger proposed an "international
mechanism," to work out compensation. In
return, Kissinger offered to ask the U.S.
Congress to modify legislation which
authorizes the U.S. government to cut off all
foreignid to any country seizing American
property without just compensation.
This -co-culled Hickenlooper amendment,
named for the late Republican senator from
Nebraska, has longbcen a target of the wrath
of Lati American nationalists.

SAN FRANCISCO lension mounted
Sunday as Patricia Hearst family for the
second day awaited word from the girl's
kidnapers on whether they would agree to
exchange her for a S6 million free food
program for the needy.
Two days after a final offer was made to
the terrorist Symbionese Liberation Army
(SLA), there still was no response from the
kidnapers who dragged the 20-year-old girl
from her Berkeley apartment 20 days ago.
Nor did the family have any assurance that
a further communication would come. In
making its most recent demand. lor an
additional $4 million personal pledge by the
Hearst family, the SLA said if its terms were
not met within 24 hours, it would break off
communications and hold Patty indefinitely
as a hostage for two SLA members in San
Quentin Prison on murder charges.
The SLA demanded that the additional

existed. He said Radford stole some

The question has been raised at the
hearings why Radford. Welander or other
suspects were not tried by court-martial if
