The Kentucky senator de of crime. Dodd said that while Washington ranks 13th in the crime rate among the larger cities, Phoenix, where Goldwater's "own influence and that of his ideology should loom largest, is fourth in the nation." "No wonder the senator wants to declare war on crime in Washington, D.C., which is about as far away from Phoenix as he can get," Dodd said. "I say to the senator, let's start 'moral persuasion at home." In his speech criticizing Democratic television ads, Morton declared: "What will we see next? Herr Goebbels in his heyday could not compete with such gruesome, panic-inspiring falsehoods calculated to instill fear into our citizenry. "I suggest the President of the United States, who has sat stony silent on this subject, must take great delight in these performances as a wily substitute for face-to-face confrontation with his opponent.

"He who pushed the buttons and pulled the strings at Atlantic City could end these despicable, distasteful acts of cowardice by sticking to the Issues. It is his campaign. Are you proud, Mr. President?" Brightman said, "The spot has been shown. It has not been canceled.

It has not been rescheduled." He was unable to give a reason for the action. Dean Burch, Republican national chairman, has filed a formal complaint with the Fair Campaign Practices Committee and television industry groups about the ad with the girl picking daisies. Burch said this is "horror-type" advertising and a smear on Goldwater. On the Democratic side, Sen. Thomas J.

Dodd of Connecticut accused Goldwater and Rep. William E. Miller, the GOP vice-presidential nominee, with attempting to "turn the question of crime and deliquency into a political football for purely partisan purposes." Dodd, who heads a Senate subcommittee on juvenile delinquency, said he was dismayed by this turn in the campaign. He said Goldwater and Miller consistently have opposed measures to deal with the causes of youth crime. CHALLENGES DESCRIPTION He challenged Goldwater's description of the nation's capital as an example of the growth scribed two spot ads.
