The Pantagraph B-7 Bloomington-Normal, Ill. Feb. 14, 1969 Claims U.S. Nuclear Striking Power Ebbs By Roland White Overwhelming U.S. superiority in nuclear striking power, which she said caused Nikita Kruschchev to pull his missiles off their launching pads in Cuba in 1962.

has "gone down the drain." author Phyllis Schlafly of Fairmount charged Thursday in a talk to theBloomington Rotary Club. The woman whose "A Choice Not An Echo" was a Barry Goldwater campaign book in 1964 seemed satisfied with Defense Secretary Melvin Laird so far but felt the Nixon administration needs pressure from believers in military muscle to counteract "the other side." Mrs. Schlafly attacked former Defense Secretary Robert McNamara "for giving the impression bombers were and said that he "by spending all the money on the TEX which nobody in the military wanted brought to an absolute halt building of the strategic bombers we did need." Russia Catches Up It during the McNamara was years that our superiority in nuclear striking power dropped from 5 to 1 to zero, Mrs. Schlafly indicated. She gave 1967 as the year when Soviet Russia caught up with this country in "megatonnage delivery capability, all strategic She translated this as meaning firepower plus the planes and assorted missile devices for carrying it to the enemy.

Mrs. Schlafly charged that currently Russia is spending $3.75 for every $1 that the U.S. spending on defensive nuclear weapons. She said that with gross national product only half that of the United States, this means Russia is devoting seven times more of national production. States Her Position She went through thick and thin of the anti-missile controversy, making clear her view that the only patriotic position is in favor of at least the Sentinel or "thin" program at $5 billion total cost, preferably the $36 billion "thick" program.

She explained that an antimissile is a projectile designed to intercept an enemy missile and said "there is a campaign against this program to save the lives of American people." The former Alton woman had unkind words for former President Lyndon Johnson in connection with the bombing halt in North Vietnam which he ordered Oct. 31.

Gary Edward Reynolds, 26, was killed in action i in Vietnam on Feb, 11, according to word received by his mother, Mrs. Bernadine Page Reynolds, East Side of the Square, Clinton, Thursday.

Private Reynolds had been in Vietnam for a month and was killed as he returned from patrol duty. Prior to entering the army in August he served with the Peace Corps for three years in Africa, where he taught English in secondary schools. He went to Vietnam on Jan. 8. He was born at Clinton, Oct.

3, 1942, a son of Edward William' and Bernadine Page Reynolds. Surviving are his mother; a brother, Philip Lynn, at home; and a sister, Karen Lee, with the Peace Corps in the Phillipines. His father preceded him in death. She quoted the current issue of a U.S. newsmagazine as saying that 37 per cent more American servicemen are being killed each week since Oct.

31 than in the weeks before 1 the bombing halt went into effect. Raps Pueblo Affair Mrs. Schlafly also censured the sending of the Pueblo into North Korean waters with no plans for protection other than international law. "We are playing in the world game against an enemy that doesn't respect international law," she said. As an illustration of her thesis that it is foolhardy to place any reliance on treaties with Russia, the speaker cited last summer's invasion of Czechoslovakia, which she said broke 17 treaties.

One of these, she charged, had been entered into only 17 days before, although the attack had been planned for six months. "I think the only way to protect ourselves is to have the hardware." Mrs. Schlafly commented. "Restore the American position of overwhelming superiority 50 that no matter what ideas any aggressor may get we know we can remain free and independent." 3 Carlisle, Dick, R.R. 3 Rigg, Steven, R.R.
