The Boston Globe Friday, October 1, NAMES FACES IN THE NEWS I 'iff Jt JI i I ViS Jm Satellite photo of offers graphic proof of the size of Hurricane Ginger as United States storm moved in over North Carolina coast (AP) China omits traditional messages Associated Press TOKYO China's 22d National Day anniversary dawned today with departures from the past and an air of mystery for the outside world. A banquet for 2000 prominent personalities was given in Peking yesterday, but Premier Chou En-lai, who nonrmally attends the affairs, was conspicuously absent, the Yu- goslav news agency Tanjug reported. It also said the banquet took place without the customary toasts. Chou is to make a speech today at a reception in the Great Hall of the People, foreign newsmen, quot- ing an official Chinese spokesman, reported. The traditional massive parade marking the anniversary was cancelled on economy grounds, and this touched off speculation last week about the health of Communist party leader Mao Tse-tung and a possible power struggle.

Monitors in Tokyo said China's three influential publications The People's Daily, the theoretical journal RED Flag and the Liberation Army Daily failed to publish a joint editorial, marking the anniversary. They said this was the first time since 1950, the year after Communist China was founded, that such editorials had not appeared. 1 Radio Peking also broke its own previous practice by failing to mention whether portraits of Mao and his heir apparent, Lin Piao, appeared on the front pages of the Chinese newspapers, monitors said. This in- formation also had been reported faithfully in past years. Monitors said the radio, instead, started out its broadcast today by wishing Mao "a long life." It was the first time the radio had used this introduction, the monitors said.

Also yesterday the Soviet news agency Tass reported that nine people died when a Chinese jet crashed well inside Mongolian territory the night of Observers noted that on Sept. 13 China ordered a three-day halt of all flights and that military flights continue to be disrupted 17 days later. Tass attributed its information to Mongolia's news agency and said, that firearms, documents and equipment had been found in the plane's wreckage indicating that the jet belonged to China's air force. Mongolia is one of Moscow's most loyal allies in the bitter Sino-Soviet rivalry, and large numbers of Soviet troops are stationed there.

Hurricane Ginger wallowed across the North Carolina coast yesterdo. with 90-mph winds, leaving nearly a million dollars worth damage. The massive storm, oldest ever recorded, was labelled a mere aggravation by residents and officials said damage considering Ginger's vast size was minimal. Winds began to subside along the coast last night as Ginger stalled a short distance inland. Later the National Hurrican Center downgraded the ailing Ginger to a tropical storm.

High tides pushed by the unusually big hurricane, with maximum winds extending 75 miles in each direction: from its eye; inundated coastal highways and sent flood waters into streets and buildings in several coastal towns. There were no known deaths or serious injuries. An estimated 5500 persons took refuge in Red Cross shelters along the coast and ventured out during the afternoon to inspect the damage while the enormous, 70-mile-wide eye of the storm passed over. The 21 -day-old hurricane, oldest in recorded history, struck the coast near Morehead City shortly before dawn and edged slowly inland. It smashed an amusement park, tumbled mobile homes and left a path of downed power lines, trees and other debris.

The eye of the storm moved ashore about noon after twice stalling several miles out to sea. Flood waters up to six feet deep covered about one-third of the streets of New Bern, a city of about 15,000 some 40 miles west of the salt water fishing resort of Morehead City. Several tanks in an oil company's riverside lot at New Bern floated into the upper mouth of the Neuse and Trent rivers, some of them breaking open. While the storm was big, its winds were not high for a hurricane, and the floods touched off by the rising tides and rains accompanying the storm might prove a greater threat than the winds themselves. Gov.

Bob Scott arrived at the stricken area early yesterday afternoon in a convoy of highway patrol cars for an inspection tour. "We're very fortunate at this point," Scott said. "There's no loss of life and property damage is minimal. I think it's because of the advance preparation. They knew the storm was coming and the people got ready for it." care plan voted, transfer pushed GINGER'S A MIGHTY BIG GIRL cloud cover superimposed on map of OEO day legal-aid United Press International WASHINGTON The House approved a sweeping program of care and development for children of working mothers yesterday, in response to Administration economy pleas sharply lowered the eligibility level for families to receive the services free.

Concluding work on a two-year, $5-billion-plus authorization bill for antipoverty projects of the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO), the House also approved transfer of the controversial program of free legal services for the poor from OEO to a private corporation. Dividing largely along party lines, the House at first tentatively approved the child care and development program with a ceiling of $6960 on annual income for a family to receive the services free. Republicans, pointing to Administration estimates the cost could reach $20 billion a year, succeeded after several tries in persuading the House to reduce the eligibility level to the concern here that the state is going to take over our children," said Rep. Edith Green "but this is not a takeover. This is quite different.

It gives children of working mothers, the latch-key children who are roaming the streets of ghettoes where nobody gives a damn about their welfare, a place to go where somebody does care and where their nutritional, their health needs and their educational needs are met." Transfer of the controversial legal services program out of OEO, also contained in the Senate bill, was sustained when a move to kill a corporation plan was defeated 210-152. "But the House approved an amendment' that would bar corporation attorneys from representing clients in criminal cases. The bill already carried language banning the attorneys from engaging in any lobbying activity on behalf of poor clients or organizing and aiding demonstrations by minority groups against proposed Federal, state or local legislation.

THE LOCKHOILXS what you make a week it's a shame to wake you." MIT scientists misused facts in opposing ABM $4300. The program then was nailed into the OEO bill by a vote of 186-183, and the entire package was approved 251-115.

The child-care plan would authorize 80 percent Federal matching grants to private, public and nonprofit groups to construct, equip and staff day care centers offering comprehensive educational, nutritional and health to preschool age children. Children from families with incomes of $4300 a year or less could attend the centers without charge. Youngsters from families above that income level would pay fees that increased as the income went up. The same feature was in a Senate-passed OEO bill. Rep.

Durward G. Hall (R-Mo), said the child-care program "is only another step toward socialization of our nation. It is un-American and it perverts all the traditional culture of families raising their own children." "I can understand that there is On that point, the committee concluded that Rathjens, in his anti-Safeguard arguments, "ignored readily available classified material and used instead nonrelevant unclassified material in situations in which the more valid classified data would have substantially weakened his case." Another conclusion was that Rathjens used a faulty method in arriving at an estimate of the numbers of individual warheads that could be carried by a single Soviet SS-9 missile. As a result, the committee said, Rathjens would up "substantially underestimating the SS-9 delivery capability." Other committee criticisms of Rathjens included a judgment that he overestimated the ability of Minute-man silos to withstand attack, that he used "invalid" techniques in estimating the effectiveness of Soviet missiles against US missile silos and that he was overoptimistic in his estimates of how many US missiles could survive a Soviet attack. Rathjens said in the debates that 25 percent of the Minuteman missiles could survive an attack by 500 SS-9s without Safeguard.

Wohlstetter, whose techniques were approved by the review committee, put the number at 5 percent. The committee criticized Wiesner of MIT for accusing the Defense Department's top scientist, Dr. John S. Foster, of having "altered" data in order to gain support for Safeguard. Wiesner made the accusation at a Senate hearing on May 14, 1969.

He said Foster at one point claimed that Soviets had only 500 SS-9 missiles and at another point raised the figure to 600. The charge was unfair, the committee said, since Foster was talking about estimates for different years. Wiesner and Dr. Steven Weinberg were further criticized for "ascribing official validity" to an estimate of the "kill probability" of an SS-9 if they were used against Minuteman silos. The committee points out that the Pentagon provided a range of estimates and that some of them were higher than the one picked by the MIT scientists.

The criticism of Lapp, a popular ftirmiiiinn i ii ii iw imiihVw I mm mmT Report says By Michael Getler Washington Post WASHINGTON Prominent scientists who. led the attack two years ago against the Safeguard antiballis-tic missile project have now been criticized for the quality of their presentations before Congress and in the press during the ABM debate. The criticism is contained in a lengthy report, to be released today, by a seven-member ad hoc committee on professional standards of the Operations Research Society of America (ORSA). Among those scientists whose work has been specifically challenged in the 135-page report are: Dr. Jerome B.

Wiesner, president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Dr. George W. Rathjens, visiting professor of political science at MIT; Dr. Steven Weinberg, a physics professor at MIT, and Dr. Ralph Lapp, an author and nuclear physicist.

In a summary of its findings after 21 months of studying the record of the ABM debate, the committee states: "The evidence strongly supports the disturbing conclusion that when prominent experts outside the Administration supported their opinions on Safeguard deployment with arguments or results of an operations-research nature, these analyses were often or actually-jn error." "Quite "often," the "report goes on, "the misleading nature cf an analysis is not apparent on a superficial reading. Because of this, poor analysis can be quite effective in public debate." 1 committee said it also found some "shortcomings" in the analysis if the ABM situation provided by Pentagon officials and their support-. ers. But "they nowhere near equalled the cumulative "mass of inadequacies compiled by the opposition." The 1S69 fight over the Safeguard ystemto. defend US landbased missiles against Soviet attack was the most intensive battle ever waged in Congress over a single weapon system.

The Admiastrationr which supported the development of Safeguard, won that battle by a vote of 51-50. Vice President Spiro T. Agnew cast the deciding vote. research and that it was doubtful ORSA had the resources to carry out such an inquiry. Such an inquiry, they maintained, would have to deal with the Administration's shifting rationale for Safeguard, derivation of intelligence estimates, "and the possibility that it selectively released classified information to make its case." The committee, in its study, did investigate Dr.

Foster's presentations and did criticize the research chief for "using a type of model and a set of data that tended to underestimate the expected number of surviving Minutemen." The net result of Foster's alleged errors however, did not amount to much. The seven-man ad hoc committee included four former presidents of the ORSA. Chairman was Thomas E.

GEORGE RATHJENS No comment ORSA undertook its investigation of the matter at the suggestion of Dr. Albert Wohlstetter, a University of Chicago professor. He urged that the study not focus on the merits of Safeguard and the ORSA committee says it followed his advice. It dealt only with "faulty professional practices" and was unanimous in its findings on the performance of Rathjens, Wiesner and others in the debate. But the organization's president, Robert E.

Machol, said in an introduction to the findings that the committee was still "divided on the merits of "Safeguard." Machol had one compliment for the scientists criticized by the ORSA committee. The country, he said, owes a "debt of gratitude" to all the "public-spirited men" who took part in the ABM debate. ORSA, founded in 1952, has about 8000 members. They are employed by universities, private companies and the government Their work involves observation, analysis and predictions about the workability of highly complex systems. The government is a major purchaser of their services.

The ORSA committee focused its study on one central issue in the Safeguard debate: Would the 1000 US Minuteman missiles be vulnerable to an attack by Soviet missiles without the protection of Safeguard? DR. JEROME WIESNER annoyed author on scientific subjects, involved three matters. The committee said Lapp underestimated the number of multiple-warheads the Soviets would have and the reliability of their missiles. He also is accused of assigning a "grossly inefficient" targeting doctrine to Soviet war planners. Wiesner, Rathjens and Weinberg, none of whom are ORSA members, were asked to comment on the report by the committee, but declined to do so.

The three MIT scientists said they "found nothing in the report to cause us to change our views" as outlined in a letter on Dec. 22, 1969, at the outset of the project "about the absurdity of the enterprise." Rathjens, however, in a telephone conversation yesterday, was obviously annoyed by the study. He said that if it were a matter of professional ethics, it should also be known that one of them on the ORSA committee Howard Berger formerly worked for Rathjens and had to be relieved of responsibility for a major study. Rathjens believes Berger should have disqualified himself on the ORSA committee. In their 1969 letter to ORSA, the MIT scientists maintained that the ABM debate could not be judged according to the standards of operations.
