From Wire Reports

LA CROSSE, Wis. Sen. Henry M. Jackson of Washington said yesterday the United States should have sent Marines to Lebanon, if asked, to keep Moslems and Christians from "shooting each other up."

Campaigning for next Tuesday's Wisconsin primary, the Democratic presidential contender attached a string of conditions to his troop proposal. But he criticized the Ford administration for "doing nothing" to prevent what he called "an explosive situation" in Lebanon.

"Now it is clearly too late" to invervene, Jackson said. "If the Syrians take over, we may not be able to prevent war."

Jackson's rival, former Georgia Gov. Jimmy Carter, said he was "not surprised" at Jackson's statement.

He called the proposal "irresponsible" and said it was an example of Jackson's "warlike attitude, which has always been greater than that of most people of this country. Our security interest is not directly affected" by events in Lebanon, Carter said.

The discussion of Lebanon tended to overshadow Jackson's main purpose, getting in a few licks at Carter.

Jackson repeatedly criticized Carter's stands while largely ignoring Rep. Morris K. Udall of Arizona. All three were campaigning in Wisconsin yesterday.

Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace was heckled in Madison by demonstrators pushing wheelchairs and wearing masks depicting the face of Arthur Bremer, who shot Wallace four years ago and left him paralyzed.

An angry Wallace supporter yelled at the demonstrators, "They ought to shoot you, they ought to shoot you."

· Harold McDonald, cochairman of Wallace's campaign in Wisconsin, later quoted Wallace as saying, "Well, this is one of the things we have to put up with. There are a few sick individuals in this society."

FUT GEORGE HOT SEAT

Jackson was also heckled in Madison, and was apparently spit upon by hecklers yelling slogans against Boeing Aircraft, a major defense contractor in Jackson's home state.

Later, at a news conference, Jackson was persistently questioned by a newsman representing a homosexual publication.

"I don't want your vote," the senator said. "I believe in the American family. If we go your route, we wouldn't even have families."

President Ford will campaign in Wisconsin Friday and Saturday.
