Atomic Energy commission the Story said it is like saying there Gold in the red River. There it is a fact. But the Gold is Here in such minute quantities hat anyone would be an idiot o take it at face value and ush out to Start mining it. I am not complaining that his Type of publicity Campaign s All bad. I am for the full Dis Losure of All data about Haz ads associated with the use of Clear Power. However these Cople Are not going about it in sensible manner. They arc trying to show lat nuclear Power is All bad Istead of saying that nuclear Ower has a lot of Good Points tit there Are some hazards associated with it that must be controlled. Or.

At some Point in our future we May need the plus Anim contained in this used fuel a another major Energy source it May become very valuable to is. If this happens Canad May wish to get into reprocess ing.

The 1979 standards will re sult in a reduction of 80 per cent of hydrocarbons co per cent of Carbon monoxide and 20 per cent of nitrogen oxides in Jet engines of less than pounds thrust. These engines Are used in business aircraft. The 1979 standards for Jet engines for More ban rounds thrust represent reduction of 10 per cent for Carbon non oxide 70 per cent for Liy Iro carbons and 50 per cent for a Trogon oxides.

About it it is a reflection 01 he president for not knowing what his White House Counse and other of his top administrators were doing. If the president was totally unaware of any of these activities on the part of the top team around him then there is a breakdown in presidential responsibility for not knowing those things. I think a president who would surround himself with the men who Are guilty of the Kint of conduct that is now being exposed with reference to watergate indicates some Lack of moral and political the Smith Dakota senator also said that watergate has Vin Dica cd his whole presidential Effort despite his crushing de feat. He was speaking about ills open and aboveboard Campaign and use of Tho new politics As opposed to the co Vert Campaign and old poli is of the Nixon Campaign. I feel vindicated but not he says.

He says Nixon was too for n i d a b 1 c because of his in Iho Field of foreign policy and simply be cause lie was an incumbent.

We published All of my tax returns. We held frequent press conferences. Almost any reporter could talk to me at almost any Lime within the limits of my schedule. I think that watergate has demonstrated the tragedy of the old politics. It indicates what can happen when a pres ident who has been reasonably successful in managing certain aspects of our affairs comes to the View that decisions can be made behind closed doors that he docs not have to Lalk to the press that he docs not have to debate his opponent Hal he does not have to expose him self to the Public.
