SUNDAY, JULY 16, 1967 Advertiser-JOURNAL Disclosure Legislation Sought By Senators WASHINGTON (AP) The may get a bill soon tightening financial reporting requirements, but the odds are lengthening that 1968 presidential campaign costs will come out of the pockets of private contributors. A Senate elections subcommittee is trying to put together legislation which would eliminate present unrealistic maximums on political spending but force disclosure of where the money comes from and how it is spent in contests for federal offices. There is no guarantee that the Senate will ever get around to considering this matter. There seems to be even less chance that it will act on a substitute for the tax check off method of financing presidential campaigns killed earlier in the session. The Senate Finance Committee, headed by Sen.

Russell B. Long, is approaching anwithout having found a formula other Senate-imposed deadline for the use of federal funds to meet the astronomical costs of presidential campaigning. Long, who fought a losing seven-week battle to save the income tax checkoff calculated to provide each major party with $30 million, is expected to ask for another extension 1 of time. Most of the fire seems to have died out of the move, endorsed by President Johnson, to avoid extracting these funds from private individuals who are likely to want something in return for large donations. Sen.

John J. Williams, has a plan for tax credits and deductions for contributors which he could attempt to attach to any reveHouse nue bill. But there is no assurance that the Senate would accept even that. go to calendar would The may reporting, abolish the $3-million limit any single committee could raise for has resulted in only a proliferaany campaign. The limitation tion of committees supporting the same party ticket.

However, individual donors would be restricted to contriba total more than $5,000 to an individual candidate. As the law now stands, they can give as much as $5,000 to each of any number of committees that may be supporting an individual candidate. The legislation is not expected to include previous presidential recommendations for a report by members of Congress on outside income or for the listing of gifts they receive that are worth more than $100.

That's roughly $5,000. Sixteen-million leaflets pledging pay for assistance to downed Americans were showered Thursday night over a 99- mile stretch of the country northward from, the demilitarized zone, U.S. spokesman announced Saturday. The disclosure came in the wake of the loss. of another plane, a Navy A4 Skyhawk, to ground fire in one of 94 missions over North Vietnam Friday.

The pilot is missing. The Skyhawk was the 607th plane officially, North. listed as destroyed The Da Nang air base, from which strikes are flown against Communist targets on both sides of the border, was reported back in full operation after a Red rocket attack in the night that killed eight U.S. servicemen, wounded 173 and destroyed or damaged 42 planes. The damage to aircraft, runways and other facilities of the field, 380 miles northeast of Saigon, was unofficially estimated to range as high as $80 million.

Daylight surveys readjusted preliminary figures on both casualties and material losses in this third and most effective enemy raid on the base in the last five months. All of the eight dead were airmen. A report that five Marines also were killed erroneous. The U.S. Command said 138 airmen and 35 Marines were wounded.

Of the aircraft, eight jet fighter-bombers and three C130 transports were destroyed by the rockets. About 50 were fired over 45 minutes from a point 4.3 miles southwest of the base. The fire-trailing missiles, of Soviet design, cratered one of the base's two 10,000 foot runways. ripped airmen's through barracks four enlisted exploded a bomb and storage facility into a bright orange ball flame the size of a football field.

Robert Maloy, Coral Gables, commander of the 366th Tactical Fighter Wing, said the only way to prevent similar damage in another attack would be to put everything underground.

Rusk, Eban Meet On Middle East As Settlement Talks Move Along WASHINGTON (AP) Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Israeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban met on the Middle East situation Saturday as moves for a settlement headed into a new phase. "We had a general discussion, chiefly on the political aspects of the situation--how to get peace," Eban told a newsman, after an hour-long talk in Rusk's office. The Israeli leader came to Washington briefly for discussions with Rusk and other senior U.S.

officials as the U.N. General. windup Assembly of its inconclu- appeared sive special session on the Mid- Leading Copper Producer Blasts Steelworkers Union One of the nation's leading copper producers charged Saturday that exhorbitant demands by the United Steelworkers of America brought about an inhas idled more than 37,000 dustrywide work" stoppage which workers in 12 states. Phelps Dodge said the steelworkers demanded wage in-28 creases totalling "more than $2 per hour." The firm made the charge in an advertisement in the Douglas, Dispatch. Spokesmen for the steelworkers were not available for comment.

The strike, which began without incident at midnight Friday, also involved Kennecott Copper Anaconda, American Shelting and Refining ARCO) and numerous Smaller: copper producers. The strike affects about 90 per cent of the nation's production. It is centered primarily in Arizona, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico and Montana. Exact estimates of the total economic impact not available, but a spokesman for Kennecott said past strikes had cost more than $4 million per week in its Western Mining Divisions. Though no major coppers shortages were anticipated immediately, 25 per cent of the nation's annual production is earmarked for defense and a prolonged strike could prompt government intervention, a top federal mediator said.

Walter Maggiolo of Washington, D.C., said he did not anticipate a government-sought injunction under the Taft-Hartley Act soon, but added "a prolonged strike could force a reappraisal of the situation." American Metal Market, an industry trade publication, said copper consumers are believed to have 60 to 90 days' supply on hand. Most of the strikers are production workers at the mines or smelters. The unions say they make about $3.25 per hour. Phelps Dodge claimed its wage package under the old contract cost the company $4.15 per hour. The company said the steelworkers and joint union committee had rejected a proposed increase of more than 47 cents hour over three years.

Numerous other small craft unions also joined the picket lines. The smaller unions represent only about 20 per cent of the 45,000 workers in the nonferrous metals industry. The steelworkers, their July 1 merger with the through International Union of Mine will and Smelter Workers, have become the industry's majority bargaining agent this year for the first time. In addition to work stoppag in five major Western copper producing states, strikes were also reported at small New tions in Texas, Colorado, operaIdaho, and York, Indiana, California Wisconsin. Maggiolo said east crisis.

On the U.S. side, there is displeasure with some Israeli actions-particularly her formalized takeover of Jerusalem -but U.S. officials believe also the renewed cease-fire violations are mainly Arab-instigated. While a State Department spokesman declined to go beyond generalities on what Rusk told Eban, U.S. sources noted Rusk has publicly deplored Israel's "administrative actions" on Jerusalem and said they "cannot be regarded as determining the future of the holy places." State Department sources said also they had received reports similar to those made public by U.N.

Secretary-General Thant Israeli forces had mistreated U.N. troops and stolen their property while the U.N. units were pulling out during the outbreak of the war. On the other hand, State Deto partment attribute the fighting along officials are inclined the Suez Canal mainly to a Calro desire to prop up home front morale and keep the situation fluid for bargaining purposes. The U.S.

formula for a Middle East peace is based on tion of Israel as a state and linking to a long-term settlement the withdrawal of her forces from occupied territories. Washington prefers to have solution worked out through direct Arab-Israeli negotiations or, that, through neutral ground such as the failing, United Nations. U.S. diplomats thus expect negotiation attempts to proceed behind the scenes at the United Nations while the General As- Oklahoma and Rhode Island plants. All bargaining broke off Friday afternoon.

Next sessions are scheduled to begin Thursday with Phelps Dodge in Douglas, Friday with Kennecott in Salt Lake City, July 26 with ASARCO in Denver and July with Anaconda at Butte, Mont. AEA Backs New Bill Before House The Alabama Education Association has endorsed a proposed substitute for, the educational appropriation bill now before the state House of Representatives, while complaining that it's still insufficient. The substitute, which Rep. Pete Turnham of Lee County says he will introduce, proposes a five per cent increase in school money over the present year's appropriation. His sustitute will be introduced to replace the House Ways and Means Committee-approved measure calling for a $278.4 million appropriation for the coming fiscal year, and $280.8 the folowling year.

That's an increase of about one per cent. Dr. Alton Crews, president of AEA, said that while the bill falls short of providing what his association considers adequate funds, it's an improvement over the committee-approved measure. "Much has been said and writregarding proration of Crews said. "There seems to be little difference between prorating funds because of insufficient revenue and proration by legislative act."

Meanwhile, the prospects for a resumption of some U.S. arms shipments to the Middle East appeared to be mounting. Washington has had a freeze on its weapons deliveries to the area since the war, but the Russians have rebuffed U.S. bids for an arms curb understanding and have been resupplying Arab forces at a rapid rate. Rusk told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Friday that the United States intends to continue selling arms to some of the Arab nations.

He set no date on when a shipments might resume and identified no recipients.
