Hanoi Radio said today the
North Vietnamese Foreign Min-
istry has protested "U.S. and
Saigon government” violations
of the two-day-old cease-fire in
South Vietnam. The broadcast,
monitored in Saigon, did not
say to whom the protest,
delivered Monday, was address-
ed. Press Secretary Ronald L.
Ziegler told reporters that the
United States is strictly adher-
ing to the Vietnam cease-fire.
The Saigon command today
reported continued fighting in
the country, accusing the
Communists of more than 700
ground attacks and shellings—
which killed 185—since the
cease-fire took effect.

AUSTIN, Tex. —President
Nixon telephoned former Presi-
dent Lyndon B. Johnson before
Johnson died and told him of
the Vietnam cease - fire
agreement, Johnson’s widow
said Monday. "I think his
friends should be told that fate
was kind,” Mrs. Johnson said.
"Lyndon did know that peace
had come ... He followed those
proceedings (the peace negotia-
tms) very closely, and he was
so pleased when President
Nixon himself called to report
the final breakthrough.”
JACKSON, Tenn. —Bank
chairman Charles Arendale
twice left $200,000 ransom
beside a busy highway to free
his kidnaped wife Monday and
each time a passerby picked it
up before the frustrated extor-
tionist could reach it. Mrs.
Arendale freed herself and
escaped unharmed. A statewide
alert was issued for the
abductor, thought to have been
driving Mrs. Arendale's green
1971 Pontiac, and the FBI
joined the search.
WASHINGTON —Through di-
plomatic channels and in public
statements, the United States is
pressuring Hanoi to release a
list of American prisoners of
war held in Laos and to
account for 5b other "known"
POWs not included on the
official Communist roster. If
the captives in Laos and the
other 56 prisoners were
acknowledged, defense officials
