About twenty pacifists, eight women, are in jail awaiting trial on charges of unwarranted loitering sleeping and assembling on federal property. They refused bail of 250 dollars each and are to appear before a U.S. commissioner Thursday. The charges arise from a three day sit in at the Pentagon last week. Suxanne Williams, 19, Leverett, was dehydrated and fed intravenously for four days amid the fasting case. Her father is a history professor at the University of New Mexico.

Solon Says Pentagon Bumbled on Rifles in Vietnam War
Rep. Richard Ichord, chair of a House Armed Services subcommittee, accused the Defense Department of bungling by not arming more M16 rifles for Vietnam. The Vietcong fear the so called black gun, while Colt Industries exported 20,000 M16s to Singapore last year with Army approval after Westmoreland's requests. Delivery to Singapore began last year as the Army planned to replace 30 caliber rifles with the M16.
