Gen. Nguyen Khanh said Sunday he believes the terrorist bombing campaign that killed five Americans last month has the backing of French agents in league with the Communists. Khanh, South Viet Nam’s junta chairman and premier, charged that the same FrenchCommunist alliance plotted to kill him last week. Khanh did not document his charges in any way and most Western observers seriously doubted they were true. He said the agents hope to overthrow his military government, imposed in a coup d’etat in January, and make South Viet Nam a neutral nation. It was the second time in a week that the 36-year old general had mentioned the assassination plot and the latest of several instances that he has charged that the French seek to neutralize this nation as a means of ending its guerrilla war with the Communists. Khanh said he had detailed information on the plot: “I have the names but I cannot reveal them.’, All-Seasons Smart * Printed Pattern Li 1 /I < a r nt i iv- 1 / / 111 ' r ll I * .Is • 'll / ll / ■ Il II i-i <1 I : w W YJ > ll I ?

Final Arguments In. Hoffa Trial Today CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (UPI) —A federal jury begins hearing final arguments today in the trial of Teamsters President James R. Hoffa and five others accused of tampering with a jury. Federal Judge Frank Wilson limtied each side to five hours, clearing the way for the case to go to the jury by Wednesday. Hoffa and five codefendants are accused of attempting to “corruptly influence” jurors during the labor leader’s 1962 trial on conspiracy charges, which ended in a mistrial at Nashville. Hoffa faces a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison if convicted. It is the government’s fifth case against the 52-year-old Teamster president Two earlier trials resulted in acquittal. Two others, including the Nashville case, ended in mistrials. Hoffa and the others have denied the government charges throughout their six-week trial here. 9 The defense has repeatedly sought to attack the validity of the government’s key witness, a Louisiana Teamsters official who turned informer against Hoffa. The witness, Edward Partin, testified he was with Hoffa during the Nashville trial and overheard the Teamsters president discuss alleged juyy-tampering efforts. The defense sought to strike portions of testimony by Partin, but was overruled by Wilson last week. Announcing RUTH KIESS BEAUTY SALON 1070 Parkview Drive Phone 3-2276 Owner & Operator Ruth Kiess
