S. Viet Assembly Opens Sessions SAIGON UPI —South Viet ; Nam’a Constituent Assembly opened with a dazzling inaugur- ! al ceremony behind heavy security guards today and immediately began work on writing the nation's first constitution. Premier Nguyen Cao Ky and Chief of State Nguyen Van Thieu told the 117 delegates they carried the nation’s hopes of building a democratic government in the time of war. The two military leaders urged the assembly to create a government "to suit the aspirations of the people.” U.S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge and dozens of other foreign diplomats arose from their seats in the gallery as Ky and Thieu, bemedaled and dressed in white uniforms, walked through a 200-man honor guard and into the old French opera house to open the session. Outside, hundreds of Vietnamese police and soldiers stood guard to prevent terrorist attacks by Viet Cong who have vowed to disrupt the proceedings. Ky told the delegates—116 men and one woman—the military junta he heads has been working toward three goals—to defeat the Communists, stabilize the economy and build democracy. "So far, only first steps have been taken to achieve these goals,” he said. "As far as the war is concerned, the Communists have suffered defeat all over the battlefield. As far as the economy is concerned, there are fewer shortages now than before.

In Memory

In memory of our father, Delmar Whitted, who left us one year ago today, September 27, 1965. Those we love go out of sight But never out of mind They are cherished in the hearts Of those they leave behind Like falling leaves, the years slip by. But memories will never die And tho’ we know he is at rest We miss him most who loved him best. Sadly missed by his children, Kathryn, Donald, Robert, Carl and Vaneeda.

Moisture Levels Now 'Adequate' LAFAYETTE UPI—Subsoil and topsoil moisture levels rose to a level of "adequate” for the first time since early summer after last week’s rains, according to Purdue agricultural statistician Robert E. Straszheim. Straszheim said that while the rains did wonders for the soil conditions, field work fell further behind schedule. Field work was limited to four days last week, but pasture conditions rose to a rating of fair "with a general greening up noted.” Straszheim said that wet topsoil limited plowing of land for winter wheat and soybean combining fell further behind. Only 10 per cent of the soybean crop had been harvested by the weekend, compared with 15 per cent a year ago and 25 per cent average. The corn harvest has yet to begin with the exception of a few scattered fields, with 60 per cent of the crop considered mature by the week end. All but 5 per cent of the crop had passed the dent stage. About 70 per cent of the crop was mature at this time a year ago. The apple harvest was 40 per cent complete, compared with 45 per cent average. The tobacco harvest was 35 per cent behind the average with only 40 per cent completed. Rye seeding was reported 35 per cent complete, the same as the average and 5 per cent ahead of this time a year ago.
