Airlines pilot who is chairman
of the conservative group, said
in an interview Thursday night
that the party caucus in Macon
Jan. 9-10 will put up a slate of
presidential electors.
The next step will be trying
to gather about 100,000 petition
signatures to put that slate on
next year’s general election
ballot.
said he foresees no
problem getting an American
Party slate on the Georgia
ballot, but that neither Wallace
nor former California Gov.
Ronald Reagan would be his
choice as the party’s nominees.
Wallace, expected to an
nounce as a Democratic candi
date early next year, has
refused to foreswear a renewed
third party bid. Reagan, who
has said he will stay within his
party, is expected to announce
for the Republican nomination
within two weeks.
“George Wallace and Ronald
Reagan — neither one of them
has seen fit to adopt the
principles of the American
Party,” said Leake. “Personal
ly, I think Wallace is being
used by the liberals to keep the
conservatives in the Democrat
ic Party, and Reagan is being
used by the liberals to hold the
conservatives in the Republican
Party, until it’s too late for
either of them to make much of
a campaign.”
The chairman said he could
not estimate how many poten
tial American Party members
there might be in Georgia.
Asked what are the “princi
ples” his party looks for in
candidates, Leake said “the
best way I can describe it to
you is, to apply the principles
of the Constitution and the
Declaration of Independence.”
He said Georgia’s third-party
law requires minority parties to
get signatures equal to 5 per
cent of the registered electorate
in the proceeding general
election. With two-million Geor
gians registered for last year’s
election, Leake said, it would
take about 100,000 names to get
an American Party slate on the
ballot.
Leake said the party had no
trouble doing so in 1968, with

I Ford shaking cold
WASHINGTON (UPI) — With his doctor reporting i
“marked improvement,” President Ford appears to be
getting over a persistent cold and sinus infection that has '
kept him confined to the White House family quarters for
two straight days.
But the President had no official appointments planned
again today, and press secretary Ron Nessen said, “I
think it is pretty likely” that Ford will curtail his activities
for the rest of the week.
Nessen said White House physician William Lukash
wanted to examine Ford this morning before deciding if
the President was well enough to go back to his desk in the
Oval Office.
On Tuesday, Lukash found Ford’s temperature was
down almost to normal and that his coughing and
congestion had lessened — leading him to conclude that
“the President has shown marked improvement during
the day,” Nessen said.
Lukash told Ford to keep taking an antibiotic drug to try
to wipe out the sinus infection that began bothering the 62-
year-old Ford over a week ago and forced him off the job
for the first time in 14 months in office.
| Judge orders Ford
§ SACRAMENTO, Calif. (UPI) — A federal judge has
ordered President Ford, described by the defense as
“maybe our most important witness,” to give videotaped
;:j: testimony on what he saw when Lynette Fromme aimed a
loaded pistol at him.
Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Thomas Macßride
S directed that Ford be questioned by both prosecution and
defense attorneys within the next 10 days, possibly when
S he visits California Oct. 29-30, or at the White House.
The videotaped deposition containing Ford’s sworn
;i;: statements then could be shown at the Nov. 4 trial of Miss
Fromme, 26, the red-haired Charles Manson cultist who
became the first person accused under a new federal law
of attempting to assassinate a President.
John Virga, co-counsel with Miss Fromme, called Ford
“maybe our most important witness.”
I Life-death battle
MORRISTOWN, N.J. (UPI) — When the neurologist de
scribed how her comatose daughter Karen Ann writhes in
reaction to pain, it was too much for Mrs. Julia Quinlan.
Tears streaming down her cheeks, she fled the courtroom.
Mrs. Quinlan was trying again today to do what she
could not Tuesday— explain again why she wants Karen
severed from a machine that is keeping her alive.
Mrs. Quinlan abruptly left the courtroom Tuesday when
the neurologist, Dr. Julius Korein, described how Karen
twists and turns in reaction to pain.
Karen has been in a coma since April 14 when she took a
combination of drugs and alcohol. She has continued to
function with the help of a life respirator.
Doctors say there is no chance Karen will regain
consciousness, and the Quinlan family wants the machine
turned off to allow her to die naturally.
But attorneys for the state say that would be homicide.
“She’s going to die anyway,” said Joseph Quinlan,
Karen’s foster father. He said Karen should be allowed to
die naturally.
| FBI doesn’t know why
WASHINGTON (UPI) — An internal FBI investigation
;? has determined a note from Lee Harvey Oswald,
i: President Kennedy’s alleged assassin, to the agency’s
: Dallas office was destroyed two hours after Oswald’s own
g assassination on Nov. 24,1963 — but the FBI doesn’t know
why. :$
Although the note had no apparent relation to the
Kennedy assassination, an FBI official told Congress
Tuesday, its destruction was wrong and the bureau is
g considering disciplinary action against those involved,
g despite the lapse of 12 years.
In a one-day hearing on some of the rumors still
g surrounding the Kennedy assassination, James Adams,
g deputy associate FBI director, told a House Judiciary
subcommittee there were conflicts the bureau cannot
g resolve between sworn statements of FBI personnel
g involved with the Oswald note.
But Adams said he could state unequivocally that Os
: s wald’s assassin, Jack Ruby, was never a paid informant
g for the FBI, as had been charged in published reports. %

I Mao raps detente
PEKING (UPI) — Secretary of State Henry Kissinger,
undaunted by Chairman Mao Tse-tung’s warning against
Soviet-American detente, worked today to set the stage
for President Ford’s coming visit to China.
Diplomats said Kissinger is trying to smooth Sino-
American relations by correcting the
‘ ‘misunderstanding” over U.S. ties with the Soviet Union,
China’s arch enemy.
He planned talks today with Foreign Minister Chiao
Kuanhua, China’s top diplomat, and Vice Premier Teng
Hsiao-ping, the man running the government.
Mao called in Kissinger Tuesday night for a surprise,
100-minute meeting at the aging chairman’s home behind
a redand-gold lanterned wall on Peking’s main street.
Diplomats said the 81-year-old Mao, a poet as well as a
revolutionary, switched from lyrical language to tough
iji: prose when eh spoke of the dangers of detente with the

dent, but that it advanced only
a few candidates in 1972 and
remained dormant last year
because of former Gov. Lester
Maddox’s losing campaign for
governor.
“We didn’t try in 1974
because of the possibility of
Lester Maddox being on the
Democratic ticket,” he said.
