j News Summary
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW ORLEANS, La. (A>)_Gov.
Edwin Edwards has set a 1 p.m.
Thursday deadline for militant
students to give up Southern Uni
versity in New Orleans SUNO or
be evicted by “whatever means
necessary.”
The student occupied the SUNO
administration building a week
ago and ordered school officials
off the campus. An effort to re
sume classes last Monday failed.
If necessary, Edwards said, po
lice would go on campus “pre
pared for the worst” and will be
backed by state troopers and Na
tional Guardsmen.
WASHINGTON — The United
States and Poland signed trade
agreements Wednesday that
American officials said would
triple trade between the two na
tions in the next several years.
It was the second major trade
agreement signed between the
U.S. and the Communist nations,
an agreement between the Soviet
Union having been signed
recently.
“As a matter of fact we did hide Bevo in this room,
but how did you know?”
Gen. Maxwell Taylor
KAMPALA, Uganda—President
Idi Amin told ministers and other
government officials Wednesday
that any Asians who failed to
leave the country by his midnight
deadline would not be harmed.
(Continued from page 1)
removed, Gen. Taylor said.
Gen. Taylor also fielded TAMU
student questions in the Political
Forum presentation:
On an all-volunteer army:
“There are pros and cons, and
I’m lukewarm toward it. I re
sist the idea that service under
arms is not the duty of U. S.
citizens. I doubt we will be will
ing to pay the bill to do it right.”
On how the U. S. ranks with
other nations’ intelligence ef
forts: “We have a technological
capability that puts the U.S. well
ahead of everyone else, as we
know it. We also know we are
very inefficient in producing
spies, who are patient people.
Americans are not the long-wait
ing, patient type.”
On Army investigation of citi
zens: “I’m against it, but the
Army did so because it was re
sponsible for law and order at
a time when demonstrations ap
peared to be a national trend.
The Army can’t go into action
without information on whom it
must contend with. This activity
has been discontinued and dos
siers no longer exist.”
On allowing the Tet offensive
to occur, if it was known to be
coming: “That was my job. Our
intelligence was good enough
that no American unit was sur
prised. How to stop it is an
other matter. If we can stop the
offensive, then we can stop the
war, simply by destroying those
North Vietnamese units.”
On checks against fabricating
intelligence: “Nothing is per
fect in this world. Intelligence
is almost impossible to tinker
with however. And the members
of the intelligence community
tend to keep each other honest.”
The expulsion of all noncitizen
Asians was ordered last August
by Amin, who accused them of
sabotaging Uganda’s economy.
Most of those expelled are from
the Indian subcontinent—like
Uganda, a former British colony.
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla — After
telling all his appointees to sub
mit standby resignations, Presi
dent Nixon flew to his Florida
home Wednesday where aides
said he would work on plans for
a major second-term shakeup of
the White House staff and federal
bureaucracy.
In the hours after his landslide
re-election, Nixon met with his
personal staff, the Cabinet and
agency heads to disclose his in
tention of undertaking a major
reorganization of the executive
branch.
Late in the afternoon, Nixon
flew to Florida with key aides

LONDON—Lord Killanin, pres
ident of the International Olym
pic Committee, said Wednesday
the whole future of the Winter
Olympics could be in question if
Denver, Colo., drops the 1976
games.
The 58-year-old Irish peer re
turned from a trip to Montreal
to learn that the people of Colo
rado had voted heavily against
further financing of the Denver
Games in a state referendum.
Killanin goes to IOC headquar
ters at Lausanne, Switzerland,
next Monday to confer with his
three vice-presidents.
