(AP) A military judge has taken under advisement defense motions to dismiss charges of murder and indecent assault against Pvt. Gerald A. Smith, 22, of Chicago, one of the 10 soldiers charged in the alleged massacre at My Lai in South Vietnam. Col. Richard L.

Jones, presiding over Smith's pretrial hearing, said Thursday he felt dismissal on grounds of command influence or pretrial publicity would be "an extreme The hearing was recessed til early October. Smith's military attorneys, Capt. Robert K. Raulerson and Capt. Delmer C.

Gowing, presented the motions for dismissal after showing more than seven hours of filmed television newscasts concerning the alleged massacre. Jones said there was no question that the My Lai case has "had more publicity than any case in the history of the world." He said, however, that he cannot rule on the motion to dismiss charges until he can question prospective court-martial board members and gauge the impact of pretrial publicity, upon them. Much of the newsfilm shown had been presented as evidence earlier this year at a pretrial hearing for Lt. William L. Calley, 27, of Miami, another of the soldiers charged in the alleged massacre.

Calley's appeal for dismissal of charges, also based on the prejudicial publicity contention, was rejected. The "command influence" motion refers to statements by President Nixon and high Army officials. FLAG (Continued From Page One) tions opposed to the Vietnam war have been threatened with prosecution by Nassau County District Atty. William Cahn for superimposing the traditional peace symbol upon a representation of the flag. Arrests for displaying the emblem are common in New York City.

Last year, the Supreme Court ruled 5 to 4 that the Constitution protects those who denounce the flag in words. The decision reversed the conviction of a Brooklyn bus driver who burned a flag in outrage after hearing James Meredith, a civil rights activist, had been ambushed and shot. The court ducked, however, the issue whether people can be punished for burning or defacing the American flag. Radich contends New York state's 1967 flag desecration law violates the First Amendment's free speech guarantee. He argues respect for the flag cannot be compelled in a free society.

The New York Court of Appeals disagreed in upholding his conviction on a 5-2 vote. The majority noted that "insults to a flag have been the cause of war," and said Radich cannot cast contempt upon the flag to express his views. The Long Island war protesters are attacking another New York law, one that forbids placing any word, design or drawing upon the flag, whatever the purpose. This, they say, is an unconstitutional attempt to compel respect for the flag. "In a free society no person should be compelled to make ritualistic obeisance to a trapping of the state, whether by being forced to salute it or by being forced to treat it as though it were the secular equivalent of a religious icon," their appeal says.

Last June, a federal court in New York City said the law could not be applied to the peace emblem because it was not a flag in a legal sense.

Name Address Age 58 Ship Cutback Announced WASHINGTON (AP) The Navy announced Thursday it will mothball or scrap 58 more aging ships over the next 12 months, including the aircraft carrier Shangri-La, now returning from duty in Vietnamese waters.

Secretary of the Navy John H. Chafee said the cutback is part of the continuing program to pull older ships from the fleet and at the same time save money in face of a defense budget squeeze. Today's announcement, together with the retirement of 55 other ships Aug. 7, brings to 286 the number of ships announced for retirement since April 1969. At that time, the Navy had more than 900 ships in the fleet.

Most of the ships marked for retirement are auxiliary vessels, amphibious warfare ships and mine warfare ships. Only nine, including the Shangri-La, are considered major combatants in the latest announcement. About 483 officers and 6,551 enlisted men are now assigned to the 58 ships. Daniell Says North Country 'Victimized' PITTSBURG, N.H. (AP) Democratic Congressional nominee Eugene Daniell said today New Hampshire's North Country has been victimized by "inadequate and incompetent representation in Washington." "It is time for a change," the Franklin mayor said in a twoday campaign tour of northern New Hampshire.

Daniell is attempting to unseat 2nd District Republican Congressman James Cleveland who is seeking his fifth term. Daniell said that for the northern section to be prosperous there must be a 20 per cent drop in electric rates, good roads to the south and to Canada and immediate price controls with rationing of fuel oils to protect industry, schools and homes from price increases of 100 per cent and more. THOMSON (Continued From Page One) Republican or Democrat on election day and getting a Republican or a Democratic ballot. Thomson's argument for an open primary law is based on his statement this morning that primary voting in New Hampshire has decreased about 10 per cent while population has increased about 20 per cent in the past 10 years. "Key candidates for statewide office are selected by a tiny fraction of the population," he said.

The twice unsuccessful GOP gubernatorial candidate he also lost in 1968, running third in the primary behind Peterson and ex-Gov. Wesley Powell of Hampton Falls said Peterson was chosen "by about 5 per cent" of the population and Crowley by "about 2 per cent" in the Sept. 8 primary.

One armed teen was critically wounded in the ensuing exchange of gunfire as he fled the building, police said. Others who fled fired on police from nearby buildings.

One man was arrested and charged with the policeman's death. Five policemen had been injured in an earlier disturbance at police headquarters when a crowd of release of a prisoner. Police arrested six persons in that incident. Dead was Patrolman William Miscannon, patrolling in a predominantly Negro inner city area. Walter Shaw, his partner, said a Negro man approached their car said, "Hey baby, I've got something for you," and fired a pistol at the officer's head.

The attacker fled in a car. Shaw was hospitalized in a state of shock. Shaw's call for aid brought 30 policemen to the area. Snipers fired as an ambulance arrived for Miscannon. In the ensuing gunfire, several persons ran from the Black Panther building and fired at police from other buildings in the block of small businesses.

Police lobbed tear gas into the headquarters building before Candy Recalled CHICAGO (AP) A candy company has halted all production in the wake of an announcement by the Food and Drug Administration that some Oh Henry Nut Rolls manufactured in June were possibly contaminated with potentially hazardous bacteria. A spokesman for the manufacturer, Williamson Candy Division of Warner Pharmaceutical said Thursday the decision was prompted by considerations of "public confidence." The FDA announced earlier in Washington that more than a Fire Calls Car 2 of the Concord Fire Department went to the intersection of Penacook and North State Streets yesterday at 3:14 p.m. to investigate oil on the road. The oil was discovered to be residue from an underground tank which was being pumped out by the Concord Public Works Department. The oil pavement was covered with sand by public works employes.

half million of the nut-roll bars manufactured June 18 and June 26 were possibly contaminated with the bacteria salmonella. Such bacteria may cause stomach upset and dysentery dangerous to infants and the elderly. Williamson Candy agreed Aug. 27 to recall any remaining Oh Henry bars of the suspect lot from nationwide trade channels. It halted production and shipment of the nut rolls Sept.

4, pending review of quality control procedures, company spokesman said. Production and shipment were halted Thursday on three other candy brands-ChocoNuts, Salted Nut Roll and Nut Clusters--produced in Williamson's Chicago plant. All four brands, including the nut rolls, bear the words "Oh Henry." The company recalled the Choco-Nuts, Salted Nut Roll and Nut Clusters bars from the market although, spokesmen said, the FDA did not request this action. Plant manager Herbert Anderson said that to his knowledge these brands were not contaminated.

They said he came out of the building with a rifle in his hand and a bandilier of ammunition over his shoulder. Police were uncertain how many persons had been in the building and fled during the siege. John Melvin McClellan, 26, of Toledo, was arrested nearby and charged with murder of Miscannon. Police Chief Anthony Bosch says he does not believe Miscannon's death was instigated by Black Panthers but suspects those firing took advantage of the situation. He said he was not sure those who opened fire from the Panther headquarters were, Panthers.

"I have no knowledge that they are yet," he said, "I have a little reason to believe that, but I haven't determined it as of yet." COUNTY (Continued From Page One) said it would be impractical to expand the present building because of the limitations of the present site. The lot is bounded by North Main, Pitman, and Court Streets and the Gen. Charles A. Doyen Playground. Doyen willed the park to the city on the condition that it be used only for recreation.

The spokesman added there are no plans for military intervention, "but I am not going to get into statements of total selfdenial; obviously we're facing a very serious situation."
