Fortas’ Enemies Admit
Decline In Strength
By ROY MCGHEE
WASHINGTON (UPD—Fili
bustering opponents of Abe
Fortas’ nomination to be chief
justice admitted a decline in
their strength today but insisted
they still had enough votes to
prevent Senate confirmation.
The latest count showed 36
solid votes against any move to
choke off debate on the
controversial issue, said Sena
tors Robert Griffin, Mich., and
Howard Baker, Tenn.
The two are in the forefront
of Republicans allied with
southern Democrats in the fight
against the nomination, a battle
that appeared destined to
consume some two weeks.
If their estimate is correct,
they are two votes over the
minimum needed to deny
Fortas supporters success in
halting the talkathon that is
preventing a vote on the Issue,
a technical motion to take up
the nomination. Another filibus
ter could be mounted on the
nomination itself.
If all one hundred senators
were present and voting, 34 no
votes would be sufficient to
prevent the two-thirds majority
necessary to invoke cloture,
parliamentary argot for shut
ting off debate.
Still Confident

sion” among the 45 senators he
once felt he had lined up
against cloture, but expressed
confidence he retained enough
strength to meet any test.
He cited Johnson administra
tion pressure and the press of
Senate business as the causes of
the defections. A $71.9 billion
defense appropriation bill re
mains stalled while the debate
goes on. And Sen. Stuart
Symington, D-Mo., said “after
the first of October, there will
not be any money to pay troops
in Vietnam.”
The Senate did lay aside the
nomination while It passed a
compromise version of an
appropriation bill for the
Housing and Urban Develop
ment Department.
Baker, leading off the GOP
attack as the debate entered its
second day, aimed his prepared
remarks at heading off any
criticism that the opposition's
"extended debate” was an
undemocratic attack on majori
ty rule.
"Debate is not a dilatory
tactic,” he said. ‘‘Frequently it
is the only effective method of
forming and adequately ex
pressing public opinion and
sentiment."

"This is my first semester at

“Did you say Eastern?” the
astonished director asked. “This

Russians Coming
To Stay In Prague
PRAGUE (UPI) — Soviet
owned villas that lay empty and
idle after the fall of Antonin
Novotny’s Stalinist regime
showed new signs of life today.
The Russians are coming to
stay.
Officers and “advisers” of the
Soviet occupation forces, some
with families, have begun filling
the houses and apartments near
the Soviet Embassy that are set
aside for use by the Russians.
Most of the new Prague
residents were apparently part
of the some 80,000 troops that
Western diplomatic sources said
will remain in Czechoslovakia
after the bulk of the occupation

force is withdrawn.
The withdrawal of the esti
mated half million soldiers in
the country was delayed still
further Wednesday with more
slowdowns in planned talks
between Czechoslovak and So
viet leaders.
The talks, requested by the
Czechs, already have been
postponed twice and party
sources said they would proba
bly not be held before next
week.
The sources said the negotia
tions were expected to produce
a troop pullout in exchange for
stiff press censorship and a
small-scale purge of political,
intellectual and Journalistic
figures.
The crackdown on the press
began Wednesday with the
dismissals of two top broadcast
ing officials and the announce
ment to editors that they soon
will have censors in their
offices.
Dismissed from their posts by
the government were Zdenek
Hejzlar, the head of Prague
radio, and Jiri Pelikan, the
director of Czechoslovakia tele
vision. Both men had been
barred from their offices during
the past few weeks but were not
formally dismissed until Wed
nesday.
