An official spokesman also reported that 104 U.S. planes have" been hut to enemy action in Sovth Viet Nan since Janu- ary OIL TheT total for losses over North Viet'.Warn was almost entirely front-enemy ground fire. Only two V.S. planes have been shot dowirby Communist MIGs. The spokesman said the figure cov- ered; losses since Feb. 7, 1965, when the United States began air attacks on North Viet Nam, UP to last Wednesday.

While the official spokesman gave no breakdown of the figures, military observer said the losses for the first 90 days this year ran higher than the first 90 days when bombings in the north began last year. One reason for the increase is that the United States is putting more planes over the north. An- other is that the Communist an- t j a i r craft defenses have strengthened and their marks- manship has improved. One Air Force officer com. mented: "The North Vietnam ese are probably the best an- tiaircraft gunners around jus now because of all tBe expeii- ence they are getting." Committee Chairmen, Not President, Hold Red Power In Administration A_ :iNGTON (AP)-The notion that Congress is a "rub- ber stamp" for President John- son has been chal'.nged by one of the real rulers of Capitol Hill — Rep. Wilbur D. Mills. Mills, Arkansas Democrat who is chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, shel.'ed two administration pro- posals last week, illustrating a fact that the public sometimes forgets. In Congress, the chairmen of the committees call the shots, not the President. Mills put aside administration bills that would have liberalized trade with Communist nations in Eastern Europe and re- vamped state unemployment insurance systems. "I am not for it," he said, in announcing he would not even introduce the trade bill. "Federal standards are out," he said in disclosing that his committee had cut the heart out of the administration's unem- ployment insurance bill and would write a new one following suggestions made by the states. White House press secretary Bill D. Moyers. asked Friday for Johnson's reaction to Mills' decision not to introduce the trade bill, said the President still hopes Congress will act as soon as possible on the meas- ure. Another illustration of i chairman's power was fur nished recently by Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, D-N.Y., when he refused to call up an admin- istration-backed bill already ap- p.-ved by his Education and Labor Committee that would permit onsite picketing by con struction unions. Hundreds Still Search For Missing Pennsy Girl Powell's stand demonstrated that a determined chairman can even override the speaker of the House. Speaker John W. McCor mack, D-Mass., !s reported to be strongly committed to pas sage of the bill. But unless Pow ell changes his mind, there wffl be no situs picketing bill this year. Chairman get their broad powers from the House rules but po-.er must be wielded bold ly to be effective. And they have to have the support of a major ity of their committee mem bers. Mills commands support In the Ways and Means Committee through a brilliant combination of political skill, legislative acu men and knowledge of his sub- ject. Powell plays rough. "Remem ber, I have to sign your travel vouchers," he tells members repeat, 'ly to forestall any at- tempts to override him. Some chairmen make al- iances to command a majority. But others fail to use the pow- er and become captives of more aggressive junior members who do. SHADE GAP, Pa.

(AP Wlrophota) Anti- Draft Data Battle Ends By LAWRENCE L. KNUTSON CHICAGO (AP) - A loud knocking on the door of Univer- ity of Chicago President eorge W. Beadle's home marked the formal end of a ass student demonstration gainst the school's policy of ipplying information to draft wards. But President Beadle was not home Friday night to receive the message, so a declaration outlining the students' stand ws slipped under his front oor. Moments earlier, most of the 350 students who had occupied nd controlled the administra- on building since Wednesday led across the darkened cam- us, blending freedom songs •rth the chimes of the universi- / carillon. They left behind a token force [ 25 protestors to maintain a 4-hour-a-day sit-in. Their declaration said the de- sion to withdraw most of the emonstrators marked the Kginning of the second phase of ieir protest. They said they would contact ach faculty member to outline the student's position, then rally rednesday to reassess their osition. "We shall permit free access and operation of the building y the administration, as long s they act in good faith," the tatement said. 'At the same time,".it contin ed, "we intend to continue to use it as a forum for communi ation and information about ur aims." The statement said a universi announcement that the stu ents would be regarded as par cipants in resolving the draft nformation policy would be re- arded as an act of good faith. Earlier, Beadle had said in a tatement that seizure, of the uilding was a "coercivetac- tic." The university's policy with espect to student deferment eniains as it was. We will only rovide grades and class stand- ing information to selective services at the request of the particular student," Beadle said. The demonstrators argue that a student who refuses to ask that the information be sent to Selective Service jeopardizes himself with his draft board. The students made their deci- sion after a meeting that began at 9:30 a.m. Friday and didn't break up until shortly after 7 p.m. They dispatched cleanup squads throughout the six-sto'ry building to clear away mounds of paper, coffee cups and ciga- rette butts. "Hey, where's the garbage?" someone yelled as he dragged a canvas sack through » aid* door. "It's all over the piae»," was the answer. Earlier, 40 graduate students set up a picket line before the building, carrying signs which read: "Take baths, not our rights," "Democracy, not anar- chy," "Free discussion, not coercion." Ku Klux Kb Plans More Action, Says Membership All Over State CAMP SPRINGS, Md. (AP)— Seven robed Ku Klux Klan mem- bers held a meeting in a lot near here last night. The meeting, including cross- burnings, Attracted fewer than 100 persons, most of them police- men and reporters. The meeting was near An- drews Air Force base. "This was supposed to have been a private ceremony," com- mented Exalted Cyclops Xavicr Edwards, 25, of Wheaton, when asked about the small turnout "We're here to burn these two crosses in honor of Klansman Ernest Beale, who died in the Camp Springs area recently," Edwards said. Edwards wore a satin-tailored | bedsheet with a matching point ed hood. The ceremony started with klansman putting a torch to gasoline-soaked five-foot wooc cross. Then, using a portable publi address system,. Klan leader launched a 30 minute verbal at tack on Negroes. In other remarks they indicat ed support for U.S. interventioi in Viet Nam, advocated bomb ing Hanoi, and said the recen Glen Echo amusement park rio near Washington was well plan ned by Washington Negroes Klan spokesmen told the audi ence there will be "a cross burned in the Washington ares every weekend from now on . and one burned in Lafayette Park across from the White House within the next two weeks. There are KKK members in every city of Maryland. Klans- men said, and to show their strength members will hold ral- lies frequently and civil rights demonstrators will be picketed. Police made no move to stop the meeting because it was held with permission on private prop- erty. About 9 p.m. the Klansmcn carried lighted torches to a 30- ofot cross, performed a brief dance around it, then stood back as a member set it afire. About 12 minutes later, the Allentown Road Volunteer Fire Department arrived, hosed down the crosses, and everyone left Revival Service Evangelist James Wilson, of Baltimore, will preach at 7:30 tonight at 742 Spruce St., launching a series of revival services which will continue all week.

losses came as the war in VietNam slackened considerablyboth in the air and on theground.
While the official spokesmangave no breakdown of thefigures, military observer saidthe losses for the first 90 days
this year ran higher than thefirst 90 days when bombings inthe north began last year.
One reason for the increase isthat the United States is puttingmore planes over the north. An-other is that the Communist an-t j a i r c r a f t defenses have
strengthened and their marks-manship has improved.
One Air Force officer com.mented: "The North Vietnamese are probably the best an-tiaircraft gunners around jusnow because of all tBe expeii-ence they are getting."
Committee Chairmen, Not President,Hold Red Power In Administration
A_ :iNGTON (AP)-Thenotion that Congress is a "rub-ber stamp" for President John-son has been chal'.nged by oneof the real rulers of CapitolHill — Rep. Wilbur D. Mills.
Mills, Arkansas Democratwho is chairman of the HouseWays and Means Committee,shel.'ed two administration pro-posals last week, illustrating afact that the public sometimesforgets.
In Congress, the chairmen ofthe committees call the shots,not the President.
Mills put aside administrationbills that would have liberalizedtrade with Communist nationsin Eastern Europe and re-vamped state unemploymentinsurance systems.
"I am not for it," he said, inannouncing he would not evenintroduce the trade bill.
"Federal standards are out,"he said in disclosing that hiscommittee had cut the heart outof the administration's unem-ployment insurance bill andwould write a new one followingsuggestions made by the states.
White House press secretaryBill D. Moyers. asked Fridayfor Johnson's reaction to Mills'decision not to introduce thetrade bill, said the Presidentstill hopes Congress will act assoon as possible on the meas-ure.
Another illustration of ichairman's power was furnished recently by Rep. AdamClayton Powell, D-N.Y., whenhe refused to call up an admin-istration-backed bill already ap-p.-ved by his Education andLabor Committee that wouldpermit onsite picketing by construction unions.
Hundreds Still SearchFor Missing Pennsy Girl
Powell's stand demonstratedthat a determined chairman caneven override the speaker of theHouse. Speaker John W. McCormack, D-Mass., !s reported tobe strongly committed to passage of the bill. But unless Powell changes his mind, there wfflbe no situs picketing bill thisyear.
Chairman get their broadpowers from the House rulesbut po-.er must be wielded boldly to be effective. And they haveto have the support of a majority of their committee members.
Mills commands support Inthe Ways and Means Committeethrough a brilliant combinationof political skill, legislative acumen and knowledge of his sub-ject.
Powell plays rough. "Remember, I have to sign your travelvouchers," he tells membersrepeat, 'ly to forestall any at-tempts to override him.
Some chairmen make al-iances to command a majority.
But others fail to use the pow-er and become captives of moreaggressive junior members whodo.

Anti- Draft Data Battle EndsBy LAWRENCE L. KNUTSONCHICAGO (AP) - A loud
knocking on the door of Univer-ity of Chicago Presidenteorge W. Beadle's home
marked the formal end of aass student demonstration
gainst the school's policy ofipplying information to draft
wards.But President Beadle was not
home Friday night to receivethe message, so a declarationoutlining the students' stand
ws slipped under his frontoor.Moments earlier, most of the
350 students who had occupiednd controlled the administra-on building since Wednesdayled across the darkened cam-us, blending freedom songs•rth the chimes of the universi-/ carillon.They left behind a token force
[ 25 protestors to maintain a4-hour-a-day sit-in.Their declaration said the de-sion to withdraw most of theemonstrators marked theKginning of the second phase ofieir protest.They said they would contact
ach faculty member to outlinethe student's position, then rally
rednesday to reassess theirosition."We shall permit free accessand operation of the building
y the administration, as longs they act in good faith," thetatement said.
'At the same time,".it contined, "we intend to continue to
use it as a forum for communiation and information aboutur aims."The statement said a universi
announcement that the stuents would be regarded as parcipants in resolving the draft
nformation policy would be re-arded as an act of good faith.Earlier, Beadle had said in a
tatement that seizure, of theuilding was a "coercive tac-
tic."The university's policy with
espect to student defermenteniains as it was. We will onlyrovide grades and class stand-
ing information to selective
services at the request of theparticular student," Beadlesaid.
The demonstrators argue thata student who refuses to askthat the information be sent toSelective Service jeopardizeshimself with his draft board.
The students made their deci-sion after a meeting that began
at 9:30 a.m. Friday and didn'tbreak up until shortly after 7p.m.
They dispatched cleanupsquads throughout the six-sto'rybuilding to clear away moundsof paper, coffee cups and ciga-rette butts.
"Hey, where's the garbage?"someone yelled as he dragged a
canvas sack through » aid*door. "It's all over the piae»,"was the answer.
Earlier, 40 graduate studentsset up a picket line before thebuilding, carrying signs whichread: "Take baths, not ourrights," "Democracy, not anar-chy," "Free discussion, notcoercion."
