Mayors press HUD chief Harris at annual meeting
About 200 mayors confronted Patricia Harris seeking relief and enforcement for housing funds. Harris vowed to enforce laws on development money while boosting Section 8 starts from 12,000 in April to 50,000 in June with a goal of 80,000 units. She warned there will be no federal funds to create racial ghettos and urged cities to accept their share of low income housing.

Soviet warns human rights clash could stall Belgrade detente
The Soviet Union warned in Tass that Western focus on human rights at the Belgrade conference could undermine detente. Yuri Vorontsov said U S pressure risks turning the meeting into a judgment of countries and their Helsinki accord implementations. Preparations for Belgrade begin midweek with the main session in the fall. The Helsinki accords call for freer emigration and greater human rights regard.
