Failed To Save Two Children RICHMOND UPI — Ronald Tevis remained hospitalized here today from burns suffered Saturday in a home fire that killed two of his children. Regina, 7 months, and Mary Lou Tevis, 2, were killed in a fire which was blamed on a coal oil stove explosion. Mrs. Tevis and a son, Ronnie, 18 months, were not seriously injured. The two girls were trapped in an upstairs bedroom and perished before firemen could reach them. Authorities said Tevis was burned when he tried to climb a ladder outside to reach the trapped girls.
—Kennedy Book tails which bear no conceivable relation to history.” The spokes man continued, paralleling the remarks of Canfield: “Although neither Sen. Kennedy nor Mrs. Kennedy has read the Manchester manuscript in its entirety—authorized representatives having done so—both Manchester and the publishers knew that Mrs. Kennedy was well aware of the personal passages to which she objected. Indeed, Mrs. Kennedy spoke directly to Mr. Manchester on at least one occasion, outlining her objections to those parts of the manuscript which she felt unnecessarily invaded her privacy and that of her
children.
"And, although he agreed to delete them from the published version, neither he nor Harper & Row, nor Look Magazine, has done so, nor have they even, in the period of this dispute, permitted Mrs. Kennedy or her representatives access to the manuscript.”
Greetings WASHINGTON UPI—President Johnson and the civilian and uniformed leaders of the armed forces sent Christmas greetings Monday to the more than 3.3 million men and women in service. "Your courage and dedication have earned our deepest gratitude and pride,” the President said. "Among other freedoms, you are safeguarding the right of worship. Our prayers, the invocations of free men, are constantly with you.”
—Opposition and prices as "a last alterna-
tive.”
Sen. John Tower, a Texas conservative Republican, would hold spending at present levels and “start no new domestic spending programs.” He echoed the view expressed earlier by Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield who said this would be a “stop, look and listen” Congress. On the other hand, Sen. Jacob K. Javits, liberal New York Republican, would raise taxes “so that domestic programs are not curtailed.” Several agreed with a mountain state Republican who thought both a tax increase and domestic spending cutbacks might be necessary, but not always for the same reason. Southerners from both parties overwhelmingly opposed tax increases while eastern Democrats split almost evenly and eastern Republicans voted 2 1 / s-to-l against. Only in the West did a small majority favor tax hikes over cutbacks.
Beats Draft HILVERSUM, Holland UPI— J. F. C. Van Velzen was just a bit surprised last week when he was told to report for induction into the army.

Indeed there was, apologized the recruiting officer. ‘A pity it won’t be that easy for your grandson,” he added.
