SALISBURY, Rhodesia (AP:
-The British government gave
Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian

time today to consider proposals
which Prime Minister Harold
Wilson and Smith agreed could

The British warned Smith,
however, that pressures were

Smith outlined the proposals
to the Rhodesian Cabinet shortly
after he returned to Salisbury
Sunday night.
Unless the way ig clear soon
to an end to the Rhodesian re-
bellion, Britain is pledged to
yfeall to toe United Nations for
compulsory, worldwide econom-
ic sanctions against the breaka-
way colony. That could produce
heavy damage to Britain’s
shaky economy, as well as to
Rhodesia’s, because British re-

be affected.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The
fight over selection of Georgia's
next governor goes before the
Supreme Court today in a clas-
tic test of toe right of states to
run their own elections.
The battfe is three-sided, its
overtones broadly significant
Specifically at issue in the
one-day hearing is toe constitu-
tionality of a 142-year-old sec-
tion of the Georgia Constitution.
It provides that when no can-
didate for governor gets a ma-
jority ofthe popular vote in an
election the state Legislature is
to choose between toe two can-
didates who got the most votes.
Such was the case when Geor-
gians balloted for governor Nov.
