‘The Plutonium Connection’
BOSTON—A sufficiently motivated group with scant technical knowledge could design and
build an atomic bomb which could kill thousands, according to a Public Television
documetary. Actor John Holecek (1) portrays the student who designed an atomic bomb in
the episode “The Plutomlum Connection” to be shown on the Public Broadcasting Service
Science Series “Nova” March 9 at 7:30. (UPI)
Compromise offered
on farm supports
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Rep.
Peter A. Peyser, R-N.Y.,
predicts the House will accept
his compromise on increasing
1975 farm price supports in
place of a bigger hike backed
by many farm bloc lawmakers.
Peyser, a member of the
House Agriculture Committee,
said Monday that he hoped to
announce administration sup
port for his proposal. Farm
legislators say a proposal
approved last week by a
subcomittee may be vetoed.
The Agriculture Committee
was to meet today on an
“emergency” bill to raise
supports for feed grains, wheat,
cotton, milk and soybeans.
The subcommittee support
terms were drafted after farm
lawmakers said unless supports
are raised, farmers might face
economic disaster this fall if
they produce big crops needed
to combat food inflation. Farm
spokesmen said heavy produc
tion could cut prices below the
costs that have risen sharply in
the past two years.
Under the subcommittee
plans, 1975 support targets
would be raised to $3.10 a
bushel for wheat, $2.25 a bushel
for corn and 48 cents a pound
Oil kings, sheikhs
hold solidarity talks
By PEGGY POLK
ALGIERS (UPI) - Kings,
sheikhs and presidents of the
world’s major oil-exporting
nations gathered today for
“solidarity” talks marred by
the absence of a third of the
leaders.
The leaders of the Organiza
tion of Petroleum Exporting
Countries called the three-day
summit meeting to coordinate
policy for a planned confronta
tion with the Western industrial
nations.
Banners vowing “No to
Threats” set a defiant tone for
the talks, beginning this after
noon at the seaside Palais des
Nations conference hall west of
the Algerian capital.
The leaders, taking part in
the first summit meeting in
OPEC’s 15-year history,
planned to finish work on an
“action program” to guide
negotiators in talks with oil
consuming nations later this
year.
The heads of state were
expected to accept France’s
invitation to a preparatory
meeting in Paris on April 7 to
work out details for a full-scale
conference between oil-export
ers and oil-consumers.
Banners draped outside the
conference hall along the
Mediterranean Sea said “The

Peyser said he would ask the
i committee to adopt an “es
calator” clause, currently

would raise the 1975 targets to

world situation can and must

ty we will keep what we have.”
The heads of state of only
eight OPEC nations —Venezue
la, Ecuador, Kuwait, Iran, the
United Arab Emirates, Qatar,
Algeria and Gabon —showed up
for the unity talks.
The leaders of the remaining
five OPEC nations —Saudi
Arabia, Libya, Nigeria, Iraq
and Indonesia —skipped the
talks and sent lower-ranking
officials instead.
Shah Mohammad Reza Pah
lavi of Iran and President
Houari Boumedienne of Algeria
competed at the summit for
influence among leaders of the
cartel that quadrupled oil
prices last year.
The heads of state went into
the summit talks with the aim
of protecting their new oil
riches against a drop in
demand and the erosion of the
dollar.
Oil sources said the leaders
are considering two plans to
keep petroleum prices high —a
special fund to protect OPEC
members against a drop in
demand and an index to tie
prices to inflation.

Charges dropped
LOS ANGELES (UPI) — John Ehrlichman no longer
faces prosecution in California in connection with the
break-in of the office of Daniel Ellsberg’s psychiatrist.
A perjury charge stemming from the case was dropped
formally Monday.
A Superior Court judge approved a request by the
district attorney’s office to halt further prosecution in
view of two federal sentences already imposed on the
former Nixon lieutenant.
Ehrlichman had been charged with lying to a grand jury
when he denied he knew about plans for the break-in. He
already has been sentenced up to five years by a federal
court for the break-in, and up to eight years for the
Watergate coverup.
Possession charged
LOS ANGELES (UPI) — Linda Eastman McCartney,
33, wife of former Beatle Paul McCartney, was ordered
Monday to appear for arraignment next week on a charge
of marijuana possession.
A highway patrol officer said he stopped a car carrying
McCartney, his wife and three children Monday after the
car ran a red light.
While writing a ticket, the officer said, he smelled
marijuana smoke, searched the couple and allegedly
discovered 16 grams of marijuana in Linda’s purse.
She was jailed briefly, then released on SSOO bond.
McCartney was not charged.
Not part of campaign
LONDON (UPI) — Former Attorney General Elliot
Richardson says his new job as ambassador to Britain is
not part of a campaign for higher office.
“I don’t look at the job as a stepping-stone,” Richardson
told newsmen Monday after his arrival from Miami. “I
consider it to be a job that is important to do for its own
sake. I’ve never believed in taking an assignment for the
sake of something else.”
Richardson, 55, has been mentioned as a possible 1976
Republican presidential nominee or secretary of state. He
said that while he doubted he would refuse a nomination
for the presidency, “I don’t expect it to be offered.”
