Home jeered In Scotland AUCHTEHARDEH, Scotland (UPI I Prime Minister Sir Alec Douglas-Home was heck led, jostled and booed Saturday in the main street of this Scot tish town where he is cam paigning for a scat in the House of Commons. The incident was the second rowdy show of antagonism to the former Ulh carl of Home since he started his tour of the "safe" Conservative constituen cy where voting in a by-election takes place on Thursday. Friday .night he had to inter rupt a speech because of heck ling by "empire loyalists." Saturday's hecklers were a band of hostile youths who waved banners saying "We don't want smart Alec we want a local man" as Sir Alec made his way to the city hall steps to address a meeting. The youths shoved and jos tled the 60-year-old premier as he made his way without losing his aristrocratic calm along the main street. On the steps of the city hall, Dduglas-Home grabbed the mi crophone and said to the cat calling youths: "You boys will have your op portunity to have your say. You wilj get as good as you give. I hope to collect some of your votes, even though some of you seem too young to vote." A local Tory supporter called hia outside interests came to light. Chairman B. Everett Jordan, D-N.C, of tlie Rules Committee said Saturday he was looking for a "well qualified" investigator to begin the staff work for the inquiry. He said he would con tact a recently retired FBI agent with extensive experi ence. He did not identify the man. ' Jordan said the committee would hold a closed session Wednesday during which wit nesses may be called to testify. He said that among those who will probably be called will be a friend of Mrs. Ellen Rom etsch, the West German beauty who was sent home after an FBI inquiry into her prjvale life. .

The embattled aid bill would authorize another fiscal year already one-third gone of economic and military aid ov erseas. The $4.2 billion total recommended by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee is about $700 million more than the $3.5 billion voted by the House, but is $300 million less than President Kennedy's $4.5 billion request.

CUPD Mississippi's public safety com missioner filed a $1 million libel sua against the Saturday Eve ning Post Friday, claiming the Post defamed the Mississippi Highway Patrol. Col. T. B. Birdsong, head of the patrol, based the suit on a slory, "What Next in Mississip pi?". He said it was published "with intend to defame" the pa trolmen's action in the Univer sity of Mississippi integration crisis. 'He said tlie story tried o pin the patrol with "a sizeable por tion of tlie blame" for the riots in which two persons were killed and scores injured when Negro James Meredith was brought to the school to regis ter last year. An attorney for Birdsong said the suit was filed here because Curtis Publishing Co. does not do business in Mississippi and the federal district court here had accepted jurisdiction in an other case involving the Post.

Official Urges New Water Plan Likely To Bring Howls In Northwest ' SACRAMENTO, Calif.1 (UPD A Los Angeles city official .Friday suggested an alternative within the Udatl water plan that was certain to raise shackles in tlie Pacific Northwest. Samuel B. Nelson, general manager for the Los Angeles Department of Water and Pow er, urged construction of a 519 mile aqueduct to tap surplus water in tlie Snake River, a tributary to tlie Cokimbia River. "They're going to scream," Nelson said of the northwestern crs, who have so far done ev erything possible to protect their water and power resources against outsido use. Nelson made his suggestion during a special meeting of the California Water Commission, called to.lake testimony on the five-slate water plan proposed last August by Interior Secre tary Stewart Udall. The plan, aimed at easing wa ter shortages in the booming desert regions of the Pacific Southwest, calls (or exporting 2.4 million acre-feet of North ern California water annually into Southern California and Arizona. It also proposed a vast sys tem of dams, reservoirs and water conservation projects within the five states of Califor. nia. Arizona. Nevada, Utah and New Mexico. Nelson said thai he favored this part of the sec retary's proposal. Nelson proposed taking the 2 4 million acre-feet from the Snake at a point 20 miles north west of Tw in Falls, Idaho.

She won Friday night in the finals of a contest that started last Monday with 49 entrants. Various eliminations reduced the field to six girls Friday night. Jeanine Zavrcl, 16, of Falls Church, Va., was first alter nate.' The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward T. Zavrel, she en tered the contest as "Miss Washington, D.C."

( "Under the plan advanced by Udall," Nelson said, "the cost of delivering the same amount of water (from Northern Cali fornia) would be $2.2 billion." He estimated his project's cost at $1.4 billion. Nelson said that water deliv ered through, his Snake-Colorado project would cost approximate ly $32 per acre foot. He said that Udall plan deliveries would cost $44 or more for the same amount. (An acre-foot will cov er one acre to a depth of one foot.)

Mary Jane Daly of Miami, Fla., Peggy Ann Neilscn of Se attle, Wash., and Marilyn Roat of Bossier City, La., were semi water from the Colorado River. Under the Udall plan, the dis trict would eventually lose its Colorado River supply and face what Nelson called "the junk ing" of its aqueduct to the river. "Even if the people of South ern California should be reim bursed for the money they have invested in this aqueduct." he said, "it would be a gross waste of resources to abandon a proj ect that still has a useful life of 50 years or longer." Nelson was among 30 witness es representing nearly every facet of California opinion who testified in opposition to the Udall plan. Several also recom mended against its introduction into Congress next year, as Udall plans to do. I XJj many bank accounts... and in most of the gossip columns!

Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield, Mont., said Friday news of the overthrow of President Ngo Dinh Diem "came as a complete surprise to me and, I am quite certain, a surprise to the administra tion." Mansfield, a member of the Foreign Relations Corroiittee and considered one of the Sen ate's ' .Southeast Asia experts, said "the. best comment at this time is no comment." Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper, R-Iowa, top Republican mem ber of the Foreign Relations Committee, said the develop ments represented "a very seri ous situation that will require scrutiny and watchful waiting Ex-Diplomat Will Return To Viet Nam WASHINGTON tUPll-Tran Van Chuong. former South Vietnamese ambassador to the United States, said today he w'ould want to return "as soon as possible" to Saigon where a military revolt apparently has toppled .the regime of Ngo Diem Dinh. , Chuong, estranged father of Madame Ngo Dinh 'Nhu who is now touring this country, re signed his post in August after 9 years of service to protest Diem's policies. "I would like to go back as soon as possible," Choun said. "After all, it is my country. I would particularly like to see my 86-ycar-old mother."' The former ambassador de clined to disclose his future plans. As one of his nation's top lawyers, it had been speculated he would take over a responsi ble post in the new government or would again become ambas sador to the United Slates. He declined earlier to say whether he would be willing to join any new government but left the door open. Chuong and other former high officials of the Vietnamese Embassy here said they had received no direct reports from Saigon on .the coup, including the fate of Diem and his brother. Ngo Dinh Nhu. Ma dame Nhu's husband. Chuong said he bad no ad vance information from Saigon on the course of the revolt but was not surprised by it. "In a general sense." he said, "evteryone in Viet Nam expect ed that something might hap pen any day. That was the gen eral feeling. But I had no prior knowledge of the coup." The average American cow last year produced 7.370 pounds of milk, reports the North Da kota Slate University agricultur al extension service.

He added that "it's been ap parent for some time that something would have to hap pen in South Viet Nam or we would have to withdraw our support." In the House, Rep. Clement J. Zablocki, D-Wis., chairman of the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee on the Far East, said the revolt seemed to come as a "complete surprise" to U. S. intelligence.

"There is ao doubt that Diem's regime is authoritarian," the report said. "It must be pointed, out in fairness, how ever, that many of the repres sive measures which he has taken have been a direct result ol the war against the Viet Cong." But, the House group said, "some have recommended as a solution the ouster of the Diem family.
