From the national and international wires of United
Press International to the Griffin Daily News and our
readers:
School aid rebuffed
WASHINGTON—An education lobby, rebuffed by the
House in its attempt to increase federal aid to education
by $728 million, indicated today it would push for an even
higher increase when the issue comes to the Senate,
probably in mid-May.
Interned or released
PARIS—The United States and South Vietnam proposed
today that long-held prisoners of the Indochina war be
interned in a neutral country or sent home. Both
Communist delegations to the Paris peace talks said
President Nixon’s latest foreign policy address was aimed
at extending the war, rather than bringing peace.
Preparing for war
NEW DELHl—Pakistan’s government said today India
may be preparing to invade East Pakistan, where Bengali
separatists have been waging civil war against the federal
government for two weeks.
Strike goes on
Board of Education reversed itself
under press from the black community, a majority in this
city, and voted down a proposed settlement yesterday of
the 10-week-long teachers strike.
The racially tense walkout is already the longest major
city teacher strike in U.S. hisotry.
