Democratic candidate for Ontario County district attorney, yesterday promised a campaign of "pursuit, prosec-j- Jon and punishment" to fight what he terms "an invitation to crime to to Ontario County." Speaking at a reception at Clifton Springs Country Club iield by (tie county Democratic wganization, Gifford told an estimated 250 people, "So far I've made no statements as to I stand for in the performance of office of district attorney. "I have said what I think is wrong with the present D.A. and iie hasn't answered.

He can't, because the statements I've made are based on his recoi'd. "All he talks of is his experience. Do people want another three, six or nine years of his kind of experience? My opponent wauls you to forget the homocides in Geneva, Honeoyc and Victor; of shootings in Canandaigua; of the burglary of the post office in Canandaigua, Gifford said. Invitation to Crime "Unless we get lough, we sre issuing an Invitation to organ ized and disorganized crime to come to Ontario County." He ihsn described the tactics he would undertake if he is elected, tactics of pursuit, prosecution and punishment. "Pursuit," he said, "means we need an increase in the number of well trained and competent criminal investigators.

For years almost the en- lire burden of criminal investigation in this county has rested on the shoulders of one man. He probably needs help in the way of additional staff and I will work to get it for him. We need fewer lawyers and more investigators." "The second point is prosecution.

Anderson's story appearing on today's editorial page, con- coming the possible "Bobby Baker" case of House Speaker John W.

McCormack's top aide, Dr. Martin Swcig, was distributed last Wednesday to-subscribing newspapers. It was "embargoed" for weekend release Saturday. Within 24 hours after it was mailed last Wednesdays, however, the Sccurilies and Exchange Commission hastily filed a complaint against the Parvin-Dchrmann Company, which was mentioned in the Anderson story. At the same time, the Speaker's nephew, Edward McCormack, through his law office also sounded out Anderson nl'ouU the column.

Later, the younger McCormack went inlo a long huddle with his uncle to decide what lo do about They agreed upon Sweig's immediate suspension in order lo draw the column's sting before it got into print.
