21. Reds Supported By Buddhists, S. Viets Say HUE, Vietnam (AP) The shadowy political arm of Vietnam's dissident Buddhist minority helped the Communists when they almost overran this ancient imperial capital, South Vietnamese officials said Monday. U.S. officials are reluctant to speak about the Buddhist movement that supported the Communists, although they are said to have amassed impressive ev.

idence. Lt. Col. Phan Van Khoa, the provincial chief, charged that remnants of the old Buddhist "struggle movement" were active in collaborating with the invading Communists. This is the antigovernment movement that was crushed when the Saigon government sent forces to Hue in June of 1966.

Phan said the most prominent monks stayed more or less neutral. He said the Communists even had selected a new province chief from the movement, a Hue University professor who fled when U.S. Marines cleared the Communists from the southern part of the city. Phan had to hide in an attic of the city hospital when the Communists overran most of Hue Jan. 31 and stayed there for seven days until he was freed.

Report Confirmed He says, 'and U.S. sources confirm, that the large Tu Dam pagoda, about five miles northwest of Hue, was the Communist command post for the attack. The Communists inside Hue operated from the Dieu De pagoda, and allotted large roles to the Buddhist militants and sympathetic students of Hue University, Phan declared. As South Vietnamese troops and U.S. Marines battled to dislodge the Communists from the Citadel, their last hold in the northern part of the city, Hue struggled to get back to something near normal.

But refugees thronged camps in the badly damaged city. There was no electric power, running water or sewage disposal. And bodies lay in streets where fighting was heavy. Gas Logs And Fireplace Fixtures Gutters Downspout Installation-Maintenance-Cleaning George Payne, Inc. 111 North Broadway Ph.

(Photo by Herald Correspondent). C-O Deferments Tougher To Win, Say Two Counsel Organizations WASHINGTON (AP) The two national organizations that counsel conscientious objectors to military service say draft boards are taking a harder line toward such young men. "War psychology has made i it more difficult to get a C-O classification," says Arlo Tatum. executive secretary of the CenCommittee for Conscientious Objectors. "Very lately we've been getting some cases that seem to indicate a growing hard line." adds J.

Harold Sherk, executive secretary of the National Service Board for Religious Objectors. Selective Service says there has been no increase in the proportion of draft registrants holding C-0 exemptions. But it has no figures to show how many such exemptions are granted in any given year or how many men apply for one and are refused. Tatum's organization, based in Philadelphia, has become linked to some Vietnam protests because it will help selective objectors-young men opposed specifically to the Vietnam war. The National Service Board, operating a block from the White House, is more religionoriented than the Central Committee does not accept the principle selective objection.

land $150,000 Spent Yearly The Central Committee is spending $150,000 this year to counsel objectors, the Board $53.000. Both organizaions mail out thousands pieces literature to inquiring voung men, but each says it doesn't try to tell anyone what to sav to his draft board, Selective Service uses two classifications for C-Os, It can give a I-0 classification to a man who for religious reasons opposes any induction into miliItary service. The man can be 30-DAY EXCHANGE GUARANTEE IF NOT FULLY SATISFIED ON NE CIRCLE ROAD BETWEEN WINCHESTER AND RICHMOND ROADS: AND ON NICHOLASVILLE ROAD, BETWEEN SURFSIDE AND MALABU DRIVES. LEXINGTON drafted for two years of civilian national-service work, however, for example as a hospital orderly. A man with a I-A-0 classification can be inducted into military service but not required to bear arms.

These men often serve as medics. Selective Service says there are 1.7 conscientious objectors per 1.000 registrants, the same as during the Korean War. At the end of the year, 11,041 men were classified 1-0. An additional 6,367 were working in national-service jobs in lieu of induction and 6,830 had completed such work. The Pentagon says about 4.000 men now in service hold 1-A-O classifications.

Tatum says the Central Committee has 3.000 active cases and tripled its counseling caseload since 1963. It is financed mostly by individual donations. people great values 1. give make 4. stores hearing aid may give you the extra "lift" you need to live a full and active life! Rush this coupon.
