SUNCOOK, N.H. (UPI) -
Paroled murderer Frederick
Martineau has been offered a
promotion to foreman of the
furniture manufacturing plant
he began working for 11 months
ago as part of the state prison
work release program.
His boss, plant Manager
Robert Harring, says he is “the
fastest rising guy I have in
here.” But Gov. Meldrim
Thomson Jr. wants Martineau
and Russell Nelson, another
convicted murderer who was
paroled, back in jail.

Governor wants him back jail
interest in paroling the pair,
because member Gerald Pruni
er has been a law partner for
six years with attorney Richard
Leonard, who represented the
men in 1959.
A hearing is scheduled Aug.
30 in Merrimack Superior Court
on a motion by the state
attorney general to void the
pair’s paroles. Judge Maurice
Bois refused in a closed hearing
Friday to have the two men
returned to custody pending the
hearing.

where he came from,” Harring
Kalmbach offers
to take lie test
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Her
bert W. Kalmbach, President
Nixon’s former personal la
wyer, has accused former
White House aide John D.
Ehrlichman of lying and has
offered to take a lie detector
test to back up his side of a
conflict in their testimony.
Kalmbach made the state
ments in a deposition under
oath made public Friday in
connection with a $6.4 million
damage suit filed by Democrat
ic officials against Republicans
over the 1972 bugging of
Democratic headquarters at the
Watergate.
Kalmbach has told the Senate
Watergate committee that he
raised $220,000 and disbursed it
to the Watergate conspirators
after their arrests in June, 1972,
and that he sought assurances
from Ehrlichman that such
payments were proper and was
told to “go forward.”
July 30, Ehrlichman told
the committee he recalled no
such conversation, doubted it
ever took place and that he
would never have given such
assurance.
Kalmbach’s civil deposition—
a question session with lawyers
—was taken the next day.
In it Kalmbach said, “I am
said.
“Fred is the fastest rising
guy I have in here. He has the
ability to think and he is able to
reason with a job problem. He
has the urgency to get the job
done but he never loses his
calm.”
The foreman job would pay
more than $l5O a week.
Martineau, 47, started working
at the plant on the furniture
assembly line 11 months ago as
part of the prison work release
program. He was paroled Aug.
5, after serving 14 years of a
life sentence. He currently
holds the position of assistant
absolutely crystal clear he
(Ehrlichman) was fully aware
of the assignment.”
“Would he not be telling the
truth regarding that matter?”
Kalmbach was asked by Robert
E. Weiss, an attorney for the
Democratic National Commit
tee.
“He would not be telling the
truth,” Kalmbach replied,
“...that would be incorrect.”
In other developments:
—The Association of State
Democratic Chairmen filed a
slO.l million civil suit against
officials of President Nixon’s
1972 campaign. It asked dam
ages on grounds that one of the
phones bugged in the Watergate
case was that of its executive
director, Spencer Oliver. Oliver
earlier had filed a separate suit
of his own.
Kalmbach also said in his
deposition that, on orders of
then Attorney General John N.
Mitchell, he gave SIOO,OOO in
leftover 1968 Nixon campaign
funds to Gov. Louie B. Nunn of
Kentucky in 1971, and $20,000 to
Gov. William B. Cahill of New
Jersey in 1969 for his political
campaign.
Tech gets
athletic
money
ATLANTA (UPI) - Georgia
Tech will receive a record $2.5
million to help build a new
student athletic complex, it was
announced Friday.
The Callaway Foundation Inc.
of LaGrange, and the Board of
Regents made the joint an
nouncement. The money will
match state funds for the ath
letic center at the school.
Tech President Joseph M.
Pettit said it was the largest
gift ever received by the school,
which has been planning the
center since 1970.
Construction of the complex
should begin this fall and con
tinue for 18 months. The center
is to be built on the west cam
pus at Tech on land acquired
through urban renewal.

Martineau and Nelson were
convicted, after a seven-week
trial, of murdering Maurice
Gagnon, a Rhode Island plas

prepared to link Martineau and
Nelson to a house burglary.
Gagnon’s body was found in
Nashua.
The two were sentenced to
hang, but three stays of

penalty saved them.

F ive-y ear-plan
to battle cancer
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
National Cancer Program, in
its first five-year plan present
ed to President Nixon, has
included among its first goals
making the public more aware
of how to fight the disease and
studying ways to remove
cancer-causing agents from the
environment.
The report resulting from
meetings among 250 scientists
said a full-scale effort will
begin next year on identifying
cancer risks emanating from
industrially polluted waterways
and microwave ovens and
television sets. New studies also
will begin on reducing lung
cancer caused by cigarette
smoking.
The federal program will also
implement screening programs
across the country in an
attempt to detect breast and
cervical cancer, the leading
cause of cancer deaths among
women.
Plan Visualizes Extension
The “Strategic Plan” submit
ted by program Director Frank
J. Rauscher Jr. also visualized
extending modern research and
treatment facilities into region
al centers, with 15 expected to
be in the planning stage by
next year.
The program was created by
act of Congress in December,
1971, at Nixon’s request and is
operating under a SSOO million
budget this fiscal year. But the
National Cancer Advisory
Board, in a separate report,
asked Nixon for the release of
another S3O million authorized
but not yet appropriated.
By 1982, Rauscher predicted,
the cancer program will involve
13,500 scientists working in
cooperation with an annual $1.7
billion budget.
The five-year plan will be
updated each year to take into
account new scientific develop
ments, he said.
“One out of every three
persons with cancer today has
a chance of being alive five
years after treatment,” the
report said, compared to less
than one in five 40 years ago.
They Recommend Modification
The scientists specifically
recommended modifying ciga
rette-making technology to
eliminate the cancer agents
once they are found, increasing
public education about the
dangers of smoking and study
ing the effects of smoking on
certain occupational groups

effort to revoke parole. “I’m
sure many intelligent people
were in on letting Fred
Martineau out on the street. I
think the man deserves a better
break than he’s getting.”
While Martineau has been
working at a furniture plant for
almost a year, Nelson has been
working on the highway
maintenance crews of the
Concord Public Works Depart
ment.
“We have had no bad
reactions from any of the
men,” said John Forrestall,
superintendent of highways.
“Nelson is very friendly—l
such as uranium miners.
Most lung cancer deaths
could be prevented by stopping
smoking, the report said.
The scientists also recom
mended studying the efffects of
air and water pollution on
cancer development.
Four of the program’s stated
objectives toward the goal of
reducing “cancer incidence,
morbidity and mortality as
quickly and effectively as
possible” are to determine the
cause and prevention of cancer.
The other objectives are to
study certain population groups
to find their possible predisposi
tion to the disease, to find a
cure for existing victims and to
ease their pain and to improve
the rehabilitation of cancer
patients starting “at the time of
initial diagnosis.”

“It seems to me the
rehabilitation system is worth
less if you can’t say at some
point that a man is rehabilita

and give him a chance to prove

Martineau of Pawtucket, is

Warrant
issued
for pusher
ATLANTA (UPI) —A warrant
has been issued for a convicted
heroin pusher whose contro
versial early release from pri
son led to the censure of a
member of the state Pardon and
Parole Board.
Board chairman Cecil McCall
said Thursday that David Judd,
20, did not show up for a
hearing last Tuesday on charges
of parole violation.
Judd’s father had reportedly
carried on business conversa
tions with Board member Jos
eph G. Maddox, who was asked
to resign by fellow board mem
bers because of his “conflicts
of interest.” Maddox admitted
to a federal grand jury that he
had the conversations with the
father prior to helping arrange
an early parole for Judd.
Maddox refused to resign.
