Process cleans coal
WASHINGTON (CPI) - The liok Powder Co said
Thursday it has signed a $10 million contract with Georgia
Power Co to demonstrate a major energy breakthrough
that removes all sulfur from coal by grinding it into grains
finer than talcum powder
The president of the Washington-based company. Dr V.
Stephen Krajcovic llok -satd the new process might doaway
with the need for controversial smokestack scrubbers to
remove sulfur from the exhaust gases of coal burning
power plants
llok said stripping the sulfur from coal before it is
burned would allow even the dirtiest U.S. coal to fire power
plant boilers without contaminating the air with potentially
dangerous sulfur dioxide emissions
He said this would enable the utilities to operate without
the industry wide $9 billion installation of stack scrubbers

Some local veterans fear
that the Cnited States' interna
tional prestige and world posi
tion will be seriously damaged
by recent events in South Viet
Nam.
"It can't help the allies and
their feelings toward us. Viet
Nam veteran Robert O'Kelley
said. O'Kelley is a Lieutenant
Commander in the C.S. Naval
Reserves and coordinator of
veteran's affairs at the Cniver-
sity “It's a disgrace We left
with our tails between our
legs." he said "We should
have won the war to begin
with "
Some veterans questioned
the tactics and leadership of
South Vietnamese President
Nguyen Van Thieu and his
ability to stop the rapidly
deteriorating situation
"Thieu will be the first one
to desert the ship before the
rats will." Bruce Galloway
asserted Galloway is an ROTC
student who served with mili
tary intelligence in Viet Nam
He feels that no amount of aid
can save the present regime
from defeat "It's not worth
sinking another dollar in. Let's
face it. we picked a loser.”
Gallowav said
“IT’S A DIFFHT'I.T deci
sion." Major Tom Webb noted
concerning further aid to South
Viet Nam. Webb is an ROTC
instructor at the University
and a veteran of two tours in
Viet Nam
“If South Viet Nam is our
ally, then we should support
the. but can we help them
anymore?” Webb asked. “The
next 30 days will be interesting
to watch.” he added
Most veterans felt that the
war would be over within a
month T give them two or
three weeks." Galloway said
General consensus was
reached regarding the initial
I S involvement in the Viet
Nam war. with all respondents
agreeing that Viet Nam was
not a I S responsibility to
defend
"Till M \\ CONCEDED Viet
Nam to the communists 2.7
years ago. Hugh Brown as
serted A former VKW post
commander, he said. "They
should have never gotten mes
sed up over there
A majority of the veterans
interviewed expressed frustra
tion with the limited warfare
technique employed by Ameri
can forces while engaged in
the Viet Nam war
"You can t fight a war with
one hand tied behind your
back." a World War If veteran
said
The defensive nature of the
American fighting and support
in Viet Nam has caused reser
vist O'Kelley to question his
continued service "I'm in the
reserves because I feel strong
Iv about the defense of my
country But I wouldn't want to
fight another war the way we
did in Viet Nam." he said
Reactions were precipitated
by the decision of Thieu to
concede to the communists the
Central Highlands and the
northern provinces of South
Viet Nam. including Da Nang
and Nha Trang. the second and
third largest cities of Viet
Nam Thousands of veterans
served in these provinces
