Says New Plant Will Halt go llution Warns of Democratic Win WATERTOWN Charles T. Lanigan, state Republican chairman, Friday in strongly backing Sen. Charles Goodell in his bid for re-election, declared that his Conservative party challenger, James L. Buckley, "can't win," and warned that complacency could lead to "disaster at the for the Republicans in the upcoming statewide election. Lanigan spoke out on these and a number of other issues prior to his address Friday before the Jefferson County Young Republican Club at the Veterans of Foreign 'Wars-quarters on Bellew Avenue.

"Buckley is not a viable candidate, attractive as his views may be to some voters," Lanigan asserted. "Our polls indicate that he has reached his peak of popularity and is now receding. It's just not realistic to think in terms of electing a splinter-party candidate to the Senate." The GOP chairman, a former mayor of Rome and unsuccessful candidate for state comptroller in 3966, warned that a strong vote for Buckley would only take votes away from Goodell and lead to the election of Democrat Richard Ottinger. "In addition," Lanigan stated, "if voters leave the Republican line to vote for Buckley, they may not return to vote for other Republican candidates whose election is just as important as that of the senator." Warning that "this is a far closer contest than some of our Upstate supporters think," Lanigan asserted that the Democrats not only are a threat to win the governorship and elect the senator, but also stand to capture control of both houses of the state legislature. "We're in a very tough race," he emphasized, "not only because there are 680,000 more enrolled Democrats than Republicans in the state, but because this year Arthur Goldberg, the Democratic candidate for governor, has the endorsement of the Liberal party." Lanigan stressed that the gubernatorial candidate often is able to pull in candidates for lesser offices which could lead to a Democratic sweep.

LOWVILLE Michael J. Blair, chairman of the Lewis County Citizens for Buckley Committee, Friday disclosed the figures on his recent poll showing, in Blair's words, "strong grassroot support in Lewis County" for James Buckley, Conservative candidate for the U.S. Senate. One hundred registered voters 63 Republicans and 37 Democrats were contacted by, telephone, Blair said. Of these, 36 indicated they were for Buckley; 34 said they were for Democratic candidate Rep.

Richard Ottinger, and seven said they prelerred the Republican incumbent Sen. Charles Goodell. Twenty-seven of the voters said they were undecided. However, according to Blair, of the 23 in the undecided column, 11 said they were leaning towards Buckley, three towards Goodell and one towards Ottinger. Eight said they had no preference whatever.

This gave Buckley a 47 per cent vote potential, followed by 35 per cent for Ottinger and 10 per cent for Goodell, he said. Voters also were asked to give their reasons for supporting a candidaate. Of the 36 voting for Buckley, 16 said they liked his firm stands regarding campus unrest and mill in Ticonderoga immediately. Continue salaries for the more than 1,100 employes at the plant by placing t)ie money in an escrow account until the litigation is IPC to remove more than .1.5 million cubic yards of sludge from the lake and Ticonderoga Creek, deposited there through the years as a result of untreated waste discharges from the pulp mill, and to pay for the removal operation. In addition, Jeffords, said the state would seek property damage of an unspecified amount on behalf of property owners along the lake who have been deprived of economic benefit's from their land and the lake as a result of the pollution.

Moreover, he said he would ask the U.S. attorneys in Vermont and New' York to enforce the terms of the 1889 Federal Refuse Act which "I know this sounds ridiculous to Upstate Republicans," Lanigan commented, "but unless the party gets a good turnout, we could get a worse shock than the Republicans got in 1948." The GOP chairman predicted that if the Democrats win control of the legislature and capture the governorship, the Republican party will be destroyed for years to come. Buckley Running Ahead In His Committee's Poll violence, 10 because of his support of the Nixon Vietnam peace efforts, four because he is "the only real Republican running," and six because they "just like him." In the case of Ottinger's 34 votes, 27 chose him because he is the Democratic candidate, three because he is "good on television," and two because "he will do a good job." Of Goodell's seven votes, two chose him because he is he Republican candidate, three because he wants to pull out of Vietnam, and two because "he has guts." Blair offered no comment on the polls, other than stating, "They speak very well for themselves. Buckley appears to be ahead." Blair did state that he would announce early next week a complete slate of officers for the countywide campaing. He said the officers were of "all political persuasions."

To- Backers Minimize Danger; Opponents Rap Profit Motive CD IPC Criticizes Threat To Close Paper Mill TICONDEROGA (AP) International Paper retorting to a Vermont threat- of court action to close the company's Ticonderoga mill, contended Friday it had cooperated in efforts to end its pollution of Lake Champlain. A company spokesman expressed "surprise and regret" that Vermont was resorting to litigation, in view of the company's current construction of a $76-million pulp mill to replace the old one. Virtual elimination of the pollution is near at hand, the spokesman said. The new mill, a few miles north of the present facility, is expected to be in operation in December.

The company- spokesman said in a statement "The company has cooperated fully with officials of New York and Vermont and has acted in good faith to comply with all its commitments." Vermont's Attorney General James M. Jeffords told reporters Thursday that the state wouid seek a court order shortly because sludge from the present mill had been floating to the Vermont side of the lake for years and, he said, the company had not met his dealine for an adequate commitment. "We are bringing an action here that has never been brought before," Jeffords said, "and we are fighting one of the biggest industrial giants in the world. You'd better believe that we're going up against some of the best legal minds IPC can muster in this action and it's going to be tough," he continued. "If we win here, IPC could wind up cleaning up sludge deposits at its plants all over the country." Jeffords said the state would seek an injunction ordering IPC to: operation of its pulp prohibits the dumping of any foreign material into public waters.

Jeffords said he would ask that the company be fined $2,500 a day for whatever period ths statute of limitations is under the federal law. The suit is expected to be filed in either U.S.District Court in Vermont or before the U.S. Supreme Court, Jeffords said, probably within the next two to four weeks. Last month, Jeffords wrote IPC President Edward B. Hinman, demanding a commitment that the company remove the sludge bed and pay the costs involved.

ije gave Hinman until Oct. 15 to reply. Jeffords released a letter from Hinman dated Oct. 14 in which the paper company executive declined to commit the firm beyond the point of further testing to determine the feasibility of removing the sludge. GOP Chairman Cites Need For Backing Sen, Goodell He attributed this threat first, to the power of the governor to control patronage at all levels of state government, and, second, to the fact that the party which wins control of the legislature will dictate the terms of the state's reapportionment in 1971.

Lanigan also warned that a Democratic victory will lead to York City's dominance over the state. "Not only are the candidates for governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general and comptroller all from New York City, the Democrats slated to become the speakers of the State Senate and Assembly should the Democrats win control of the legislature, are from New York City as well," he said. Lanigan noted that Goodell is the only senatorial candidate from the Upstate region, as are his running mates Edward Regan for comptroller and Malcom Wilson for lieutenant governor. "As a' matter of fact," he noted wryly; "Buckley wasn't even from New York until the campaign began, he was a legal resident of Connecticut." The GOP chairman said that in his opinion Goodell is now running "a very strong race," and has steadily gathered momentum since he was attacked by Vice President Agnew two weeks ago. Noting that Goodell "has been having financial troubles," Lanigan stated that since Agnew's verbal attack, "the money has begun to roll in." if he believed Agnew is seeking to purge the Republican party of liberals, Lanigan declared, I hope not.

We are trying to occupy the middle of the road, accepting moderates of both the left and the right an effort to become the majority party. To purge the party of liberals is to write off the northeast. I don't think we're ready to be written off." Nuclear Proposal Draws Fire, Support By HUMPHREY TYLER POTSDAM Atomic Energy experts, who came to the North Country to explain to its residents the details of a nuclear-powered electric generator proposed for Washington, found support and rabid opposition to the project Thursday night. Speaking to a packed audience in Clarkson College's Snell Hall, Dr. Clifford D.

Beck, deputy director of the regulatory division of the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), and James G. Cline, chairman of the New York Atomic and Space Development Authority, said the fast-breeder nuclear reactor per-posed for Waddington will be the power source of the future because it produces its own' fuel. They said conventional fuel sources, including uranium, soon will be. exhausted and the fast-breeder, producing more nuclear fuel than it consumes, will be the only answer for the survival of society. Opponents of the plan who, fearing harmful radiation and.

nuclear accidents, said the AFC has not met with scientists who contend radiation from such plants is unhealthy. The AEC sets limits on the amount of radiation allowed to escape from a nuclear facility and contends there is no health hazard from these limited amounts. One opponent said he fears the plant would be built to produce nuclear fuel for profits. He said he did not want his family to be exposed to radiation so a consortium of utility companies, which will build the plant, can make huge profits. A Potsdam State University geology instructor said the Waddington site is not advantageous because it is near ah historic earthquake center.

Cline explained that the plant will be designed to withstand the most violent earthquake over registered in the area. The meeting almost became a shouting match between proponents and opponents of the plan when Dr. Kenneth Baker, vice president of St. Lawrence University and moderator of the meeting, tried to bring the program to a close. One woman, shouted, "You are afraid to answer our questions in public." And another yelled, "This has been a snow-job, a great big snow-job." Earlier, Larry Boyer of Og-densburg, chairman of the Citizen's Committee to Protect the St.

Lawrence Area Environment, told the meek ing he felt the presentation had been one-sided. He said he wants to bring experts opposed to nuclear plants into the North Country to air their views. Boyer said he resents that hiii tax money was spent to bring advocates of the plan to the area, while the other side is not being presented. Cline and Beck said they did not come "to sell the plan, but to present the facts." Earlier, at a press confer Democratic fttpfl Transportation Leader Due Parents, W'town Board At town WATER TOWN John Burns, state Democratic party chairman, will malfe a campaign appearance Monday between 6:30 and 7 p.m. in the Democratic party Building, Public The made Friday by Robert Bouchard, chairman of the Jefferson County Democratic Committee.

Kennedy in 1964, will stop here after an all-day campaign swing through the North Country, including Plattsburgh.

The visit by Burns will follow by three days ah appearance here by the Republican state chairman, Charles T.

Lanigan, who spoke Friday at the Young Republicans dinner at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Club, Bellew Avenue. Campaign stops here also are planned by Arthur J. Goldberg, Democratic candidate for governor, Thursday, and James L. Buckley, Conservative party candidate for U.S. Senator, Friday.

Lawrence University, Beck said the plant was safe enough to be built in heavily-populated areas, but the AEC lias a traditional policy to place nuclear- plants in areas of sparse -population density. There is opposition to the plan among North Country residents who feel that the plant will be put in Waddington so radiation would affect few people. This view was aired at the Clarkson meeting when a student accused Beck and Cline of wanting to put the plant in me North Country so "only a few people would.be destroyed if something went wrong." Cline and Beck said the Waddington site has not been chosen and there are several sites in Pennsylvania and California under consideration. Still Disagree on Busing WATERTOWN "We have reached an impasse, and we are through giving in," George E. Earl of 20 Patricia Drive, chairman of the parents' group protesting the Board of Education's transportation policies declared Friday.

Earl, one of five parents who met with the board at the State Street School in a one-hour meeting, said that the board refuses to authorize door-to-door pickups of kindergarten children, and refus-es to discuss possible intermediate stops to be made during the winter months. "We have no choice but to take our case to a higher authority," Earl, asserted. He in 30 Farmers To Install Field Tile WATERTOWN More than 30 Jefferson County landown ers will be installing under ground drainage systems dur- HI ing the 1970 construction season, it was reported by Harry E. Potter, Soil Conservation Service, at the October meeting of the Jefferson County Soil and Water Conservation District directors. The meeting was at the -organization's headquarters, Stateway Plaza.

William F. Chamberlain, Belleville, presided over the meeting to hear of progress by cooperators in conservation planning and practices. Tile contractors and landowners, assisted by SCS technicans assigned to the Jefferson district, are laying out drainage systems, staking, surveying, and marking grades, it was reported. Construction progress this year includes five miles of underground drains, three miles of open drains, 10 ponds, and more than 90 acres of land smoothing. Mark Kirkby, LaFargeville, submitted a signed conserva-1 tion agreement and was approved to become a coopera-tor.

W. 'F. Croney, Ithaca secretary, state soil cori-s a i committee, reviewed the recently released position descriptions suggested for districts. He reported on the need for uniformity in district policies in employing personnel. More than 40 full-time employes and 90 part-time employes are working in soil and water conservation districts throughout New York State, he said.

A mass meeting of parents is scheduled for 8 p.m. Sunday in Black River Road Community Center to discuss the parents' next move, Earl said. The controversy between the parents and the board, which has been going on since the beginning of school last month, stems from disagreements of the location of bus pickup points in the outlying areas of the Watertown expanded school district. In a larger sense, the conflict represents the dissatisfaction of residents in the Black River Road area since they were incorporated into the expanded system last year. Last month more than 120 pupils were kept home from school as a protest of the board's busing policies.

Since then the parents have been meeting with the board to press for implementation of their demands. Originally the parents demanded that unsafe stops along the Black River road be eliminated, but recently the demands have been broadened to include door-to-door pickup of all kindergarten children. This request would require buses to make runs along a number of deadend streets. The board has refused on this point. LOCAL NEWS George K.

Swayze, Stale Editor LEWIS WATERTOWN Dan Carey, Asst. JEFFERSON THE POST-STANDARD, Oct. 17, 1970 October Flurries 1 1st Sign of Winter I Hits Malone-Snow Get out the snowmobiles. Put on the snow tires. Grab the shovels.

Put on the storm windows, and get the summer furniture off the patio. Well, maybe it won't be necessary to do all of these tasks right away but those were the thoughts running through the minds of Malone area residents Friday afternoon when the first snow of the season made its appearance. The flakes fell briefly about 1:30 p.m., stopped, then resumed with another brief flurry about a half hour later. The temperature at the time was 40 degrees and although the snow didn't stick to the ground, it was the real thing and a sure sign that another long, North Country winter is not far away. Arsenal Street Work Completed WATERTOWN Upper Arsenal Street, between Sherman Street and the American corner, was scheduled to be reopened to traffic Saturday morning after being closed for repaying since Wednesday.

According to City Manager Ronald Forbes, the swiftness of the project's completion by the contractor, Ador and Booth, and the Department of Public Works crews, "set a new record." By contrast, re-paving of a similar length of Court Street forced the closing of the street to traffic for five weeks in September and October. Forbes said that there will be no parking on the north side of Arsenal Street, which is one-way entering Public Square. The lane formerly used for parking will now be used for cars turning left onto Court Street via the new Lackenauer Plaza cutoff.
