The crash was the latest in a series of troubles for the XB-70A bomber program. The craft were designed as intercontinental nuclear weapons carriers.

White, 48, chief test pilol for ciated General Contractors of Iowa, which has refused to divulge the Bradley bid or any others. Hughes said Wednesday he has talked to Bradley and plans to again. Governor's Advise The governor said if he had known Bradley was seeking the contract, estimated to be worth i $18,000 a year. "I would have advised him not to bid." The Polk Central Committee, with more than 100 members present, voted to send congratulations to former lowan, Ron ald Reagan, who Tuesday won the Republican nomination for governor of California. The committee passed a motion by Ed Lindeen, 2902 Cottage Grove calling Reagan, once a Des Moines radio sportscaster, "a really great Republican." Lindeen said he and Reagan have been close friends for many years.

The commitetee did not vote on candidate endorsements, as expected, but will later, said Chairman Allen Donielson. Donielson said a subcommittee interviewed six candidates earlier Wednesday and was "impressed by their qualifications." But, he said, no endorsement recommendations were considered because the subcommittee's co-chairmen, Harold Goldman and Ben J. Gibson, were absent. Will Support Slate The Central Committee voted in February to give open support for the first time to a selected slate of candidates for county offices and the Legislature in the campaign preceding the September primary. Donielson said the subcommittee will screen ail interested persons and does not want to discourage any.

Admission is free to children 12 and younger, $1 for persons 1,1 to 21 and $5 for others.

The Central Committee will By Jerry S.umski Joseph R. Bertroche, candidate for the Republican nomination for Iowa attorney general, said high state officials are setting a bad example for other state workers in conflict of in-t situations. "What I'm orried about are the people down the chain of command in state govern ment who say, etrochi 'The man at the top did it and was condoned, so why not me? Bertroche said. Bertroche, of Des Moines, spoke to the Polk County G. O.

P. Central Committee in the Y. M. C. A.

He said Gov. Harold Hughes and Attorney General Lawrence Scalise, both Democrats, "appear to be condoning" a conflict of interest involving Harry J. Bradley, of Des Moines, chairman of the Iowa Highway Commission. Bertroche said later in an interview he assumed "Governor Hughes checked with Scalise in the Bradley matter" without deciding there has been a conflict of interest in Bradley's printing firm getting a contract from a contractors' association. "To me this is an obvious conflict of interest," said Bertroche.

Potter Conflict Bertroche also mentioned the recent case of State Tax Commission Chairman Lynn Potter, who was preparing state income-tax returns for his wife's accounting firm in Cresco. Potter's wife later divested herself of interest in the firm. Bertroche said about Bradley and Potter: "I have no doubt about their honesty and integrity, but I believe men in appointed state positions who place themselves in questionable circumstances set precedents which may prove awkward or templing to lesser state officials who may not have the same honesty and integrity as thrse two." Hertrocle said Hughes should appoint a nonpartisan three-member committee to investigate the Bradley matter and report the facts, including the amount of Bradley's bid on the contract.
