Strauss denies Demos
received Castro funds
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Rob
ert S. Strauss, chairman of the
Democratic National Commit
tee, has given sworn testimony
in which he termed “ridicu
lous” the notion that the Castro
government in Cuba gave
money to the Democratic
presidential campaign.
Strauss thus denied one of the
premises of the Watergate
bugging. Some of the convicted
conspirators, including Bernard
L. Barker, have said they were
looking for evidence to back up
reports of such Cuban pay
ments.
“I thought it was the most
ridiculous suggestion that I
believe I have ever heard and I
know of no money like that that
came in,” Strauss said in a pre
trial deposition in connection
with his committee’s $6.4

million civil suit against the
Republicans for damages re
sulting from the bugging.
Meanwhile, a furor was
growing on Capitol Hill over the
latest round of news leaks in
the Watergate case, many of
them involving testimony se
cretly given by former presi
dential counsel John W. Dean
111, who testifies in public next
week.
Senate Democratic Leader
Mike Mansfield urged the
Watergate committee to adopt
“stricter procedures” to pre
vent leaks of preliminary
testimoony. Senate Republican
leader Hugh Scott charged that
“a great many people” were
waging “separate campaigns”
to their own ends through
“manipulation of leaks.”
A Watergate committee
member, Sen. Lowell P. Weick
er Jr., R-Conn., said in a
television interview (with Mar
tin Agronsky) that a conspiracy
was afoot to discredit Dean’s
testimony in advance.
One set of documents recent
ly leaked involved a White
House summary making Dean
appear as the prime person
covering up the scandal. Other
leaked information concerned
reported testimony by Dean
that he borrowed Republican
campaign money to finance his
honeymoon.
There were these related
developments:
—Thomas F. Mcßride, one of
the Watergate special prosecu
tors, said consideration is being
given to convening a separate
grand jury to probe campaign
financing. He and his staff are,
among other things, looking
into allegations that Republican
officials drew up a list of
corporations which had prob
lems with the government and
then went after them for
campaign contributions.
—Sen. Barry M. Goldwater,
R-Ariz., elder statesman of
conservative Republicans, said
in Indianapolis that if Demo
crats had done the burglary
and bugging, the press would
have called it “cute” rather
than criminal. He also said
Republicans should stick by
Nixon unless it is “proved
beyond any question of a
doubt” he was involved.
Times Tells of Payment
—The New York Times said
Carter vows to fight
increase in taxes
JEKYLL ISLAND, Ga. (UPI)
—Gov. Jimmy Carter promised
Thursday night to press for an
other property tax reduction
next year and vowed to oppose
any tax increase during the re
mainder of his term.
Supreme Court
New guidelines
set on obscenity
WASHINGTON (UPI) - A
sharply divided Supreme Court,
which split 5 to 4 on a series of
obscenity cases, established a
new set of guidelines Thursday
that will allow states and
communities to ban books,
magazines, plays and films that
may be allowed elsewhere.
The court eliminated “re
deeming social importance” as
a defense in obscenity cases.
The majority opinion was
written by Chief Justice Warren
If. Burger. It declared that
juries can apply their local
moral standards rather than a
“national standard” in state
obscenity cases.
In a busy day of decision
making, the court also ruled
that intentional racial discrimi
nation in part of a Northern
city school operation would
subject the entire system to
“all-out desegretation.”
The 7-1 decision, written by
Justice William J. Brennan Jr.,
came in a Denver, Colo. case.
Court’s Other Actions
The court took these other
actions:
—Ruled 5 to 4 that a
newspaper can be prohibited
from carrying help-wanted ads
that indicate an employer’s
preference for either men or
women applicants. The court
rejected an appeal by the
Pittsburgh Press, which divides
its help-wanted columns into
three categories—“jobs-male
interest,” “jobs-female in
terest,” and “jobs-male-fema
le.” Burger, one of the
dissenting justices, said the
decision was a “serious en
croachment” on the Ist Amend
ment.
—Upheld the rights of states
to compel welfare mothers to
seek and accept employment as
a requirement for receiving
federally funded aid to families
with dependent children. The
decision in favor of a New York
policy was 7 to 2.
—Rilled that 12-member ju
ries are not mandatory for
deciding civil cases in federal
courts.
—Ruled 5 to 4 in a Wisconsin
case that police may search
automobiles without a warrant
under certain conditions.
Friday morning that Watergate
conspirator E. Howard Hunt
received a final cash payment
of $72,000 in mid-March after he
warned White House domestic
affairs adviser John Ehrlich
man he was going to “tell all”
about 1971 White House opera
tions against Daniel Ellsberg. It
said the warning was made in a
letter sent by Hunt to Dean for
relay to Ehrlichman.
—Publishers of a book by
convicted Watergate conspira
tor James W. McCord, to come
out in July or August, said it
will implicate President Nixon.
—The St. Louis Post Dispatch
said the mysterious spy re
ferred to in Senate hearings as
“Sedan Chair” was Michael W.
McMinuwhy, a Louisville, Ky.,
private detective and that he
was employed by the Nixon
campaign to spy on Democrats.
Strauss, in his 111-page
deposition which was released
Thursday, also said that less
than 10 per cent of the
Democrats’ campaign contribu
tions were in cash. It wasn’t
clear just how much this was in
dollars, but Strauss said all
cash contributions were
reported, even those received
before reporting requirements
went into effect April 7, 1972.
Strauss also said he believes
in hindsight that “the same
people who did the Watergate
or people with the same
motives” may have been
responsible for a break-in at his
own home in Dallas two weeks
after the Watergate arrests.
He said most of his papers
were gone through but nothing
was stolen. He said his wife’s
jewelry case containing tens of
thousands of dollars worth of
jewelry was left on the floor.
Carter, in his annual “state of
the state” address to the Geor
gia Press Association, said one
of the highlights of his first two
and a half years as governor
was the SSO million reduction in
property taxes voted this year.
—Declared that a lower court
improperly ordered judicial
surveillance over the weaponry
and training of the Ohio
National Guard after the Kent
State campus deaths in 1970.
The vote was 5 to 4.
—Ruled 6 to 3 that an
accused person does not have
the right to have a lawyer
present when witnesses to a
crime are shown photos to aid
in identifying a criminal.
Some Uncertainty Gone
Deputy District Attorney Mi
chael R. Capizzi of Orange
County, Calif., a jurisdiction
involved in one of the series of
cases ruled on by the court,
said the court has taken some
of the uncertainty out of the
pornography area by adopting
“a more practical approach”
as to how obscenity may be
determined.
David Schachter of the Los
Angeles City Attorney’s office
noted that prosecutions all over
the country should now be
easier because many of the
defenses formerly available to
the accused have been elimina
ted.
On the other hand, Aryeh
Neier, executive director of the
American Civil Liberties Union
in New York, saw the decision
as opening the way for local
law enforcement officials to use
state obscenity laws to harass
political dissidents and others
whose life styles displease
them.
“The Denver decision pro
vides strong support for efforts
to desegregate the schools of
the North and West, where
litigation in recent years has
unearthed a mass of intentional
racial and ethnic school segre
gation,” NEA Executive Secre
tary Terry Herndon said.
“The decision should facili
tate the redress of grievances
by victims of such unconstitu
tional segregation, require
school systems outside the
South to come to grips with a
major obstacle to the effective
education of children and help
to break down the continuing,
dangerous and increasing racial
and ethnic isolation in this
nation,” he said.
A It took him 20years
to find out who he was
and 2 laps to let the world know.

“I think we might possibly be
able to reduce property taxes
again next year,” he said. “But
I can tell you there definitely
will not be a tax increase while
I’m governor.”
Carter ticked off a list of his
accomplishments and noted
proudly that he had stabalized
the state tax structure and suc
cessfully “resisted those push
ing for an increase in state
sales tax.”
The governor said his biggest
failure was not being able to
enact consumer protection laws.
“Georgia has become a haven
for doubtful businessmen, the
unscrupulous who play on the
defenseless,” he said.
They are attracted to Geor
gia, he said, because most
other states have enacted con
sumer protection laws.
Carter promised to press for
three consumer bills in the next
legislature— a Fair Business
Practices Act, a consumer cred
it law and the no-fault insurance
law.
He said Georgia also has “a
long way to go” in education.
The most important change in
that field during his term, he
claimed, was further integration
of the state’s schools.
Rabbi leader senses
emotional hunger
ATLANTA (UPI) - The new
president of the Central Confer
ence of American Rabbis
(CCAR) thinks an emotional
hunger exists in America which
is not being satisfied by tradi
tional religions.
“They do not want to be
taught, but to be touched,”
Rabbi Robert I. Kahn of Con
gregation of Emanu El in Hous
ton, Tex., said. “They are no
longer sure that the religious
rituals of yesterday — the forms
and the prayers — are going
to satisfy their hunger.”
Kahn, 62, will for the next
year direct the CCAR, the Re
form rabbinic association which
has 1,100 members serving 1.1
million Jews.
In an interview, Kahn said the
emotional restlessness shows it
self in many ways. “Campus
intellectuals turn to Majarishi,
young college scientists study
Zen Buddhism... Jesus freaks
are ecstatic and the Hare Kirsh
nas chant on the street corn
ers.”
Kahn said it is easy for tra
ditional religious men to criti
cize young for such beliefs but
they should not be ignored.
He said organized religion
must reorganize to become
more relevant to the needs of
people it seeks to serve.
Kahn said he wanted to put
sparkle and participation into
religious forms by using rock
Dr. Lawrence E. Lamb
T

By Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D.
Dear Dr. Lamb — I am an
ex-smoker and have recent
ly read one of your articles
about tobacco. Why do peo
ple who write about the dan
gers of cigarettes always say
that when anyone smokes
two packages of cigarettes a
day, and inhales them, it is
harmful? The truth is that
even under a pack a day is
harmful to a person’s health.
I believe if you would say
cigarette smoking in any
amount is dangerous it
would cause more people to
give them up.
My husband has smoked
for years and has a terrible
cough, and he never feels
good. He has left them off
for as long as two weeks,
and in that short a time he
feels better, eats better, and
his cough gets better, but he
starts smoking one and
eventually four cigarettes a
day and the next thing you
know, he’s feeling bad again.
He has never smoked two
packs a day, but they defi
nitely hurt him. Most arti
cles leave the impression
that up to two packs a day
won't harm your health, so
why don’t you tell the people
the truth.
Dear Reader—ls I’ve ever
given the impression that
music and guitars for tradition
al Jewish chants and by hav
ing people worship on the floor
instead of in pews.
“The churches that have done
this sort of thing have broken
the pattern and made the thing
come alive,” he said. “They are
eliminating some of the formali
ties of the institution. They are
attracting people, while the
mainline Protestant churches
remain static,” he said.
Kahn said he believes more
churches need to have parallel
services so young and old can
each worship in forms that are
meaningful to them.
•
People today, in large cities
particularly, lack a sense of
community in the church — the
community that used to be the
natural result of a village
church relationship, he said.

Even one cigaret
can be harmful
any amount of smoking is
all right for a person’s
health, it certainly has not
been my intention. Studies
show that beginning with one
cigarette, the more one
smokes, the more likely
there is to be difficulty.
I agree that a pack of cig
arettes a day is harmful.
Even three or four cigarettes
a day can be harmful. A per
son who’s been a reasonably
heavy smoker and then cuts
down, but continues to smoke
even one or two cigarettes a
day, will not get the full
benefits that he should in
reversing abnormal changes
in the cells within the lungs.
Some of these cellular
changes seem to be main
tained even by small
amounts of the cigarette
smoke. Certainly anyone who
has a cough and other prob
lems associated with ciga
rettes should stop smoking
immediately.
If you’ve read very many
of my columns you know that
I also feel that being forced
to inhale the cigarette smoke
from other people is also bad
for your health.
Dear Dr. Lamb — If exer
cise is so important how
come bedridden patients can
survive 30 or 40 years and
live until their 70s without
hardly moving?
Dear Reader — In the first
place, not many of them do.
So the basic assumption im
plied in your question isn’t
necessarily true. There are
examples of individuals who
do live a long time at bed
rest or with other disabling
factors that prevent physical
activity. One safeguard these
people have is that they are
unable to go out and engage
in physical activity beyond
the limits of their capability.
They are not likely to sit
before the television set and
stuff themselves with potato
chips and cheese dips and
then run to catch the bus.
Many disabled patients are
under contant medical super
vision, and problems which
occur are often taken care
of immediately. There is an
old saying that one way to
live a long life is to get a
chronic disease and take
care of it. Possibly because
they cannot get to the kitch
en, these individuals are
usually not overweight. In
general, individuals who are
not obese tend to live longer
than overweight individuals.
There are always exceptions
to general rules, and exer
cise is not the only factor in
longevity.
