(Scoop) Jackson of the state of Washington who is running hard for the Democratic nomination for the Prear dency. Dr. Carlton B. Goodlett. president of the National Newspaper Publishers Association the Black Press of America warned him on his anti bussing stand. Dr. Goodlett's message reflects the feeling expressed by Black editors and publishers during their Mid w inter Workshop in the Virgin Islands last week. His wire to Senator Jackson follows: "We want you to know that the mood of Black editors and publishers at the National Newspaper Publishers Associa tion's Mid Winter Workshop was one of indignation over Presidential candidates catering to the whims and emotions of majority segments of the American public, while neglecting the basic needs of Black and poor America. "We believe your proposed anti busing legislatu re falls in that category We find it regressive, reactionary and reflects a myopic perception of what the real issues of the 1976 Presidential election should be. No Democrat can win the Presidency without Black support. "For this reason, the Black Press will be vlligently monitoring you and the other candidates and reporting to our people which one of you can best provide the honest, dedicated and effective leadership for all America and. above all, who has commitment to help those in greatest need." f tta b h th o d 19 t a shot service to tk l s V tk 'lM ) k S A ÎI'k jA f M f lt k A i • ), Do » Vouo.ll (And Sovr $$ 1 0 1 4 N .

There is, of rourse, no guarantee that contacts can be established or that they will bear fruit if made. I submit, however, that this approach has a far greater chance of success than that proposed by the Ford Administration, and that it will make the Soviet Union mueh more uncomfortable than our fi nancing and promoting a guerilla war. Moreover, an attempt to make contact with the MPLA can cost us nothing. I urge the President and Secretary of State to take action now, before it is too late. S A V E *4 9 !

Senator Birch Bayh (D Indiana) has said that the United States should establish direct diplomatic contacts with the Popular Movement for the Liberation in Angola. "I believe the time has come for a reversal of American policy and a new diplomatic initiative by the United States," Bayh said in a statement released by his presidential campaign office. The full text of Senator Bayh's statement follows: Since last November, I have repeatedly expressed my disagreement with United States policy toward Angola. I have been deeply troubled by the Ford Administra lion's derision to supply covert aid to factions in Angola and to increase the level of suffering in a complex domestic struggle when no vital U.S. interests were at stake. Events of recent weeks have heightened my concern, and I believe the time has come for a reversal of American policy and a new diplomatic initiative by the United States. Soviet and Cuban backed forces of the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA) have dispersed forces of the National Front (FNLA) in northern Angola and are rapdily moving against UN1TA positions in the South. It is clear that the Popular Movement has become the dominant faction in Angola for the forseeable future and that if the FNLA and UNITA are to continue the struggle, it will be on the level of guerilla warfare and terrorism. Here in the United States, Secretary of State Kissinger has now called for this country to openly provide aid to UNITA and the National Front in order that they may keep fighting. Obsessed with the theory that we must counter every show of force by the U.S.S.R. with force of our own. the Secretary of State is unwilling to recognize that a guerilla war will be long and bloody and cost thousands of African lives, that it will inevitably draw pro-western states such as Zambia and Zaire more deeply into the conflict, that it will further ally the United States with South Africa in the eyes of Black Africans, and that it will, in ail probability. Increase the dependency of the MPLA on the Soviet Union and Cuba. While I am very critical of the
