Civil defense advocates, after
more than a decade of crying
in the wilderness, believe they
finally have a winning argu-
ment.
The argument seemed to go
well last week when Assistant
Secretary Of Defense Steuart L.
Pittman and Army Chief of
Staff Earle G. Wheeler asked a

welfare Of the people are viii.
ing to play God" by saying
people must not have public
shelters even at the calculated
average cost of $4S per poten-
tial life saved.
The House approved the
program, 172 to 81. All Of the
State governors and many
mayors have endorsed the
program.
Not all officials accept the
civil defense arguments.
Chairman Cannon Of the
House Appropriations Commit
tee rejects the first and vital
point.
There will never be another
world war;" he told the House
in October.
He also rejects shelters as q
means of saving lives.
Modern nuclear b ombs
incinerate in white heat everyp
thing within so miles. They
exhaust all oxygen. Survival In
any shelter that could be
constructed is hopeless" he
declared.
None Of these things Is true,
according to the men who
make nuclear weapons and
calculate their effect on the
enemy.
Incarceration" Doubted
No one has figured out how
to incinerate in white heat
everything within so miles of a
bomb burst. even when theoret-
ical monsters of 1000 megatons
or more are burst under the
worst possible circumstances.
Tests show they don't ex-
haust all oxygen in the vast
areas outside the fireball ra-
diuS. 1t is the scores Of millions
Of people outside these radii
who would probably die later
from fallout but could be saved
by shelters.
And the fact that the
planned shelters will save lives
in fallout areas is proved by
tests in Nevada.
Mr.. Cannon and the chair
man of his subcommittee in
charge of civil defense, Rep
resentative Thomas. Democrat
of Texas, says they will throw
their influence against civil
defense.
The bill would provide SITS
million for Federal subsidies for
public shelter construction and
$15.6 million for construction
of shelters in federal buildings.
If the one-year program works,
it will be expanded to a s. to T.
year, SIS billion program that
will, combined with existing
shelter, provide shelters for viz
tually everyone.

Campaign Costs Hit Peak
In 90 Congressional Race

the California governorship
contest in which former Vice
President Nixon was defeated
by Gov. Edmund G. (Pat)
Brown cost 81 million, none of
which was reported nationally.
Reports for a campaign COM
mittee which operates within a
single State. The great bulk of
spending in Senate and House
races is made by such commit
tees and is never reported to
Congress.
State laws, too, show serious
gaps in reporting requirements.
Six States, including Illinois,
have no provision for reporting
or regulating election expenses.
Others place no limit on ex-
penditures or do not require re-
ports of primary expenses.
Some do not require political
committees to report or exempt
candidates for certain offices
from reporting laws. Many
States require reports to be
filed with some local official
rather than at central State Of
flee, making a Statewide COM
pilation of costs impractical.
Most report only their per-
sonal receipts and expenditures
and do not report the spending
by committees set up in their
behalf.

and 81 third party candidates,

81 ,2S0 to 22,760 miles above
the earth.
This was slightly lower than
the intended orbit, which space
agency officials said accounted
for the eastward drift. 1t was
this drift which today put the
satellite slightly to the east Of
the African coast. If the proper
orbit-22,300 to $4,000 miles
had been achieved, the satel-
lite would have moved west
ward.
With perfection, Syncom II
would have moved in this d.
rection for eight days until 1t
reached a point over the equa-
tor above Brazil. The plan Is
to fire nitorgen gas Jets by

one area Of the globe because
1t travels at the same relative
speed that the earth rotates
