Service Commission has de-
cided against issuing any re-
strictions or regulations regard
ing the granting Of cash
awards and quality in-step
raises to employees in the
higher grade levels.
The csc discussed the sit
uation at its recent Interagen-
cy Advisory Group meeting
with Government personnel Of
ficials. The csc raised the
question whether the granting
of cash awards for top per-
formance and in-step quality
raises TO employees in the upper
grades should be restricted or
regulated, in order to avoid any
appearance that top Federal
managers are more lenient in
granting awards within their
own circles than they are in
giving awards to rank-and file
employees.
The Governments personnel
officers opposed such a move,
declaring there is a need in all
agencies for flexibility and the
exercise Of good judgment on
an individual case basis. As a
result, the csc has dropped
the idea.

Laotian Says
u. 5. Hatched
Staying Plot

VIENTIANE, Laos, April 4
| (AP) Prot Communist Prince
Souphanouvong, a deputy pre-
mier, specifically accused the
United States today of trigger
ing the assassination of Foreign
Minister QUINN Pholsena. A
United States Embassy spokes-
man called the charge "baseless
and entirely false"
A delayed report reached
Vientiane, meanwhile, of a clash
of neutralist and leftist Pathet
Lao troops in the field Mon
day.
Premier Prince Souvanna
Phouma said about 20 soldiers
had been killed in clashes since
last Saturday between feuding
Laotian forces stationed in the
tense PLANE DIES Jarres area
in central Laos.
Prince Souvanna told a news
conference, however, that after
his personal intervention a
general truce was proclaimed
wednesday in the PLANE, which
is jointly controlled by the pro-
Communist Pathet Lao and
their one-time allies, the neu-
tralistS.
Prince Souphanouvong's
charge was followed up by a
pro- Communist Pathet Lao de-
mand for a Joint investigation
by Laos three ruling parties
of the assassination last Mon
day.
The Pathet Lao Information
Minister, Phoumi Vongvichit,
indicated his faction in the
three-corner government is not
satisfied with an inquiry being
conducted by the neutralist
faction, headed by Prince Sou
wanna.
There must be an inquest
conducted by members of the
three parties SO that the in
vestigation is impartial" Mr..
Vongvichit told newSmen.
Mr.. Quinim's assassin, a 10
year-old guard named Kong,
is a member of the neutralist
faction. But it was reported
that Kong is a so-called re-
dictionary neutralist as opposed
to leftiSt or dissident neutral
lists. like Mr.. QUINN. Kong is
under arrest.
Laos has a three party coali-
ton government headed by the
neutralists with leftist Pathet
Lao and the provost right
lists serving in the posts Of
deputy premiers.
Prince Souphanouvong
blamed Mr.. Quinim's death on
what he called American war
mongers and their agents" He
added:
American aggressors and
their agents for a long time
have Matched a plan to hurt
QUINN"
He claimed the United States
at first attempted to buy the
foreign minister off land then
used threats to force him to do
what they want" But when
this failed, he said, "they as
sassinated QUINN in order to
destroy Laos policy Of neu-
trality and its coalition govern
ment."
Prince Souphanouvong de-
manded that the coalition gov
eminent severely punish Mr..
Quinim's assassin and de-
nounce the American imperi-
alists and their agents-the
authors of the crime"
Denying the Souphanouvong
charges, a United States EN-
basSy spokesman said:
THE United States affirms
in absolute terms that it is in
no way involved in this I'M
happy affair. To resort to
violent methods to resolve
political questions regardless Of
their gravity is abhorred by
the United States and it deeply
regrets such methods were en-
ployed in this case"

A massive attack on Illicit
traffic in narcotics and danger.
Gus drugs was urged today by
a presidential advisory COM
mission.
The commission, headed by
E. Barrett Prettyman, former
chief Judge of the United
States Court of Appeals in the
District Of Columbia, recon-
mended establishment of a spe-
cial unit of investigators and
lawyers in the Department OF
Justice to ferret out and prose-
cute big-time smugglers and
sellers.
Physicians Role
For the addict, the commits
sion suggests more emphasis on
rehabilitation rather than pun
ishment. The commission said
penalties in Federal narcotics
laws are too rigid for some OF
the lesser offenses and urged
that these be relaxed to give
courts more discretion in deal
ing with these offenders.
In an interim report, the
commission also touched on the
controversial question of
whether drugs should be dis
pensed to addicts in treatment
by physicians. 1t recommended
that the American Medical AS
ISOLATION and the National Re-
search Council submit defini-
tive statements as to what con-
stitutes legitimate m e die al
treatment of an addict, both in
and out Of institutions"
Other major recommended
tons were:
Stricter control of the manu-
facture and use Of the so-called
dangerous drugs" such as
barbiturates and ampheta-
mines.
