Carter to come to Kansas
NEW YORK-Kansas is one of the states Jimmy Carter's presidential campaign has ticketed for a serious effort this fall. Robert L. Brower said yesterday at the Democratic debate in Washington.
Brock, a Topeka businessman and Carter's Kansas finance chairman, said Hamilton Jordan, Carter's campaign manager, told him that present plans call for
"Kansas is a state they are targeting," Brock said. "They are not going to write it off. Carter is personally coming to Kansas, and he intends to carry it."
Brock said the former Georgia governor plans to have a complete campaign organization in Kansas, including a state director and a coordinator.
Kansas has given its electoral votes to Democratic presidential contenders only twice in history.
Vaccine insurance studied
WASHINGTON- Insurance companies told the government yesterday they will decide by the end of this week whether to write policies protecting four drug companies that are producing vaccine for the national swine flu immunization program.
Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare David Mathews, who personally mediated a two-hour meeting with pharmaceutical, insurance and public health officials, said continuing problems with insurance liability "pose a major question" about the program.
But for the present, he told reporters after the meeting, the government still is planning to buy more than 200 million doses of the vaccine and to begin giving flu vaccines.
Mathews characterized the closed session as "productive, instructive and useful, but on a subject of great difficulty that is not going to yield instant
Ford's TV exposure shows large increase
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Ford, hardy but bashful about stealing some of the limelight from conventionering Democrats, kept a busy schedule of meetings yes and no, undercover policemen, forage students, farm family and the baseball All Stars.
The President declared himself too "toprecupcied" with the All-Star game in Philadelphia to watch the Democrats on television and doubled the usual number of events on his schedule open to TV network cameramen.
Usually there are one or two, but Tuesday there were four, including his attendance at the game where he was enlisted to throw out the first ball. The Democrats, meanwhile, gave routine attention to their non-controversial party platform.
Ford tuned in the Democrates on his living-quarters TV set on Monday night, said White House Press Secretary Ron Nessen. But Nessen said Ford turned off the sound.
The President gave his attention to paperwork, Nessen said.
"He found nothing last night that interested him?" a reporter asked.
"That's correct," the press secretary replied.
Nessen has said it would be wrong to suggest that Ford is scheduling his appearances "in some way to counter or top the Democratic convention."
But Ford told a National Exchange Club audience Monday night he was making no claim.
"I will be preoccupied" with the All-Star game, he declared.
During the day Tuesday, Ford met with 22 undercover police officers who ran two fake fencing operations here that netted some $3.5 million about $3.5 million in stolen property.
Then, along with Agriculture Secretary Earl L. Butz, he greeted the Wilmer L. Powells, the "farm family of the year" from Mansfield La., before meeting with more than 4,000 foreign exchange students and their American hosts.
Schools seek Federal funds to halt violence
WASHINGTON (AP)—The nation's public schools, plagued by crime and vandalism of staggering proportion, soon will ask Congress for $300 million to escalate what has been a losing battle, security officials said yesterday.
"We're talking about violence of the type never before experienced by schools and property losses in public schools of more than 75,000 others," said Laclus Burton, security chief Alexandria, Va., school system. "The federal government has a definite role here."
More than 300 security experts and school superintendents from 30 states are meeting in suburban Alexandria this week to discuss, in a conference sponsored by the Association of School Security Directors, new ways of combatting school crime.
But more money is seen as the ultimate weapon.
"Many of the school systems hit by 'student crime, arson, vandalism and burglary' can't afford to handle the problem,' association President Joseph McGraw said, in an interview. "We need more federal money for training and hardware."
Greaally said that security officials this week are considering all sizes of school systems, "drawing up programs to fit a system of that size—but many systems just don't have the money to implement the programs."
Congress already has heard about the growing problem of school violence.
After hearing testimony by students and educators last summer of gangs shooting up classrooms, teachers assaulted and tortured carried out by fourth-graders. Congress asked the Justice Department's special counsel to help ministration to help甩 out such crimes.
The LEAA, participating in this week's
season, has pledged a $12 million program to
support the school.
"We think we'll get congressional backing, although there may be some revision on the money figure," Burton said. "It's the main concern has been a presidential vote."
With statistics not yet compiled for 1975, Burton pointed to 174 figures which showed $694 million in public school property losses:
"Last year's total most certainly will top $600 million," he said.
- $140 million in other losses, including locker thefts and student extortion.
—$102 million lost to vandalism.

Today, when Jimmy Carter is destined to become the Democratic presidential nominee, is the President's 8 aird birthday. He arrives at his annual checkup at 8 a.m. in a semi-annual checkup.
All three meetings were open to television coverage.
On Friday, Ford takes a helicopter to Baltimore to be entertained along with Baltimore Home Homie Maligiano aboard the West Georgia Island Sorch Fock by Chellenor Helm Schmidt.
The White House used Ford's meeting with the policemen to provide a double opportunity in itself for careruns. With photographers present, the President conferred with them on the Cabinet room. By the schedule, that wait had been the extent of the ceremony.
But minutes later, White House press aides invited reporters and photographers into a driveway outside the West Wing, where Ford made yet another appearance and delivered another congratulatory speech.
