the governor congratulated Amin Mueller, sheriff of Sedgwick County, for launching his own program against drug abuse in the Wichita area. Miller recently assisted authorities in Ellis County in the arrest of a number of drug pushers in Hays.
Other talks Tuesday afternoon featured Merwyn Purdy of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation and Ward Rogers, director of the Office of the National Council on Atcholism.
"This is an example of the vigorous type of enforcement we need in Kansas," Doe said.

Purdly said the number of drug arrests in Kansas rose 138 per cent during the first six months of 1969 compared with the first six months of 1970. The rise in other hard crimes accounted for 15.4 per cent. The 16 to 22 age group accounted for 71 per cent of the drug arrests.
The most dangerous drugs being used in Kansas are heroin and speed. Purdly said until a couple of years ago the heroin problem was nonexistent in Kansas.
Nixon to Present New Peace Plan In Nationwide Broadcast Tonight
Ward Rogers said the number one drug problem in America today was not marijuana or LSD but beverage alcohol. He stated that today one out of every fifteen adults is an alcoholic and that less than three per cent of the problem is on skid row.

major new plan for peace in Vietnam that
the White House indicated would involve all of
Indochina.
Nixon was in high spirits Tuesday when he personally announced that the Senate would not pass a bill the White House would be "the most comprehensive statement ever made" on the prolonged war.
The White House said Nixon would be flying to Key Biscayne, Florida. That day for a long time he'd stop on the way for a "nonpolitical" declaration. He denounced oceanographic research center near Savannah GA, where he will be greeted by his nemesis political candidate for governor of Georgia.
The White House made clear that Nixon would be talking about the entire Indochina peninsula rather than South Vietnam alone. His speech will follow a months-long campaign in which he capped by a personal report to Nixon in Ireland Sunday by his representatives in Paris.
Nixon also will address the U.N. General Assembly in New York October 23 and entertain visiting heads of state and their wives the following night at a White House dinner. On Thursday, Nixon will present President Nicole Caucasus of Romania who will be attending the General Assembly
session and touring the United States privately, the White House said.

There was widespread speculation, which Nikon made no attempt Tuesday to threaten a war with Iran and propose a cease-fire through Southeast Asia and a withdrawal of all foreign troops there.
"It will be the most comprehensive statement ever made on this long and difficult war and will cover all the major issues in which it is based," he said, speaking without notes.
Ovando Ousted
Before the speech Wednesday, Secretary of State William P. Rogers will brief interested governments, including close U.S. allies in Southeast Asia and presumably the Soviet Union, on the new diplomatic approach, Nixon said.
"We do not consider this to be a propaganda garnish," he added. "We are not just saying that we do."
The President himself will discuss his speech with the cabinet at 5 p.m. Wednesday, followed an hour later by a briefing for Republican and Democratic congressional leaders. Dr. Henry K. Akiisan, his national affairs adviser, will see newsmen twice.
The President stressed that the new U.S. peace initiative was being developed long before the National Liberation Front offered an alternative to the United States, which they leave South Vietnam by next June 30.

In addition to a number of rebellious military officers, Torres was joined by the central Organization representing more than 10,000 other groups representing business employees and students, and Ovando's former labor minister, Col.

Silesu Sieso was president of Bolivia from 1965 to 1990, prior to the election of President Vladimir Esteserrano who was deposed in a military coup in 1983. He is also the Eesteserrano's vice president and also head of the leftist National Revolutionary Movement and the Union of Bolivian Tin Miners.
The military forces backing formation of the junta minimized importance of the "in-surrectionary" movement but it appeared to be gaining ground rapidly in La Paz.
The 30,000-member Bolivian Workers Central (CBO) announced opposition to the junta and ordered its members to blockade streets and prevent the movement of troops within the city. Organized leftist student groups were laying up barricades at principal intersections.
Army troops supporting the new junta were ordered off the streets of La Paix and back into confrontation. Public order in the capital was left in the hands of the national police, armed with rifles and machine guns.
Nervousness was apparent among the civilian populace of the city last Tuesday for the first time since the Sunday start of the crisis that led to Ovando's downfall.
Gen. Roligo Miranda, the army chief of staff who led the rostrum that ousted Miranda, was reported at Miraflores, site of the joint attack in 2015. Miranda's proclaimed was to be sworn into office.
'Pollution Solution' Uses Sea Water to Clean Air
BERKELEY, Calif. (UPI)—A Chemical engineer at the University of California has developed a simple and inexpensive solution to an air pollution problem.
Sulfur Oxides Scrubbed Away
Experiments conducted by Leroy A. Bromley showed that common sea water could be used to dissolve oxides from smokestack gases.
The U.S. Department of The Health, Education and Welfare regards sulfur oxides as the most serious of several air pollutants.
Millions of dollars could be saved annually in costs for removing sulfur oxides from the air, primarily by burning coal and fuel oil.
Bromley's method cools raw stack gases, runs them through a chamber where they are
scrubbed clean by sea water and finally reefs them before they are released through the stack. The main asset of the plan is that it must be in a location that should make the method economically attractive to plants near sea coasts or estuarine waters.
A more elaborate system removed 90 per cent of the sulfur dioxide packaged with devices for increasing the contact between
A tower in which the cooled gases were sprayed with sea water cleaned 90 per cent of the sulfur dioxide from the gas. Sea water used was roughly the same as for air conditioning and now used by power companies.
Either of the processes is far cheaper than other methods that have been used and the cost could be further lowered if the power is combined with a sea water inversion facility, said Bromley.
Cities such as London and New York have had "killer fogs". Although there are other pollutants, sulfur dioxide and methane cause the fires in deaths from bronchitis, emphysema or lung cancer.
Sulfur dioxide also damages plants and property.
In California, power plants often use natural gas as an energy source, but it is expensive and, because it are limited, Bromley said.

BSU Leader Is Arrested After Chase
The chairman of the KU Black Student Union was arrested Monday night following a high speed auto chase involving both KU and Lawrence Police Department officers.
LaVerta Murray, Kansas City senior, was arrested on a warrant issued early Monday. The warrant was issued in the Douglas County Court following a complaint filed by a former security officer, Bobby Lovely, Bobby Jackson, and Reginald Scarbrough whose addresses are unknown.
The complaint charged Murray with ugravated assault and criminal damage to property, both felonies, stemming from a violent altercation with a Hillman Hill Museum Apartments, 1741, W.19th St.
Pice gave the following account of the incident:
The chase began shortly after 9 p.m. Monday when KU security police, who had been alerted earlier in the day, spotted Murray's car parked in a campus parking lot. Two subjects were in the car. The KU security force attempted to stop the car as it was moving down the street and car to the intersection of Harvard Road and Iowa Street, where the Lawrence police joined them in the chase. The chase concluded at 711 Rockledge Road when Murray, who was the alleged driver of the car, attempted to turn the car into a driveway but was caught and forced into a wooden fence. Both subjects faced fright from the pursuit, which was captured several hundred yards to the west of the scene of the accident and the other unidentified subject escaped.
Murray was then taken to the city jail where he was charged with four additional offenses; reckless driving, failure to obey speed limits, being in an accident and unlawful use of a weapon.
The bail was set at $3,000 with $1500 covering the felony charge and $1500 for the four misdemeanors. Murray posted the bail and was released Monday night.
Murray was arraigned Tuesday morning at 13, in the Douglass County Court by County Judge John B.
