I wanted to suggest that you take it up with the G's to control the Ken O balls for you for a 25,000 win. One dollar and 10 correct numbers wins the money on each game or control the dice. Surely this wouldn't be against anyone's ethics in Nevada a least. Had a very good nites sleep even though awakened once by the inter com phone. your Tues demonstration for me to produce rain had its results this morning before noon and right now it looks like some more. The rain poured, lightning and a big temperature drop + then cleared up but now some more angry (2pm) clouds are overhead and another temperature drop. The lightning knocked out all T.V. channels on the cable except the Chico station and channel 7 from Redding. This mail arrived this morning later mail I will forward with instructions to hold for you at Cape Charles. Here comes the thunder again. yesterday after the paper arrived a high school student pretty hep to you called and wanted to interview you for an article in the school paper or for a class project. (from Al Bailey) === Page 2 of 16 Chico (Calif.) Enterprise-Record, Saturday, May 5, 1973. Page 4B This was Fri, May 4, 73 in storm referred to in affidavit. LIGHTNING STRIKES - Lightning striking once at 11:12 a.m. yesterday was enough to cause a fire that resulted in an estimated $15,000 damage to the home and contents of the Gerald Davern residence, 1000 Eaton Road. Four Butte County fire units, once officer and the North Chico Volunteers responded to the call. No injuries were reported. (Photo by Rich Witesman) NOTE: This was a direct effect caused by my demonstration to Mr. Al Bailey, several days earlier, of how to make a storm, complete with lightning attack.

Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens === Page 3 of 16 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN On May 4, 1973, Ted Owens (PK Man, as he is called) was our house-guest at my Chico Motor Lodge, 725 Broadway, Chico, California. He took me outside and explained to me how to control weather by use of the mind. How to make it rain, even with sunny skies...how to make lightning strike. He pointed his fingers at the sky and explained how to project certain forms of mental imagery, to produce rainstorms and lightning. When he was doing this, the weather was hot, with sunny skies. He explained that what he was doing should produce rainstorms and lightning, and that a small lapse of time might be necessary, perhaps days, for Nature to bring the ingredients to that area to bring it about. Several days later, after Owens had left, it began to rain and storm. There was lightning. Power was knocked out in some sections of our town. Radio and TV stations were put off the air. I swear that this is a true and accurate statement. *This occurred in the morning and early afternoon of May 4-1973-(ACB)* Alfred Bailey Alfred Bailey Chico Motor Lodge Chico, California State of California County of Butte On this 22nd day of May 1973 before me, Edith M.

Never again. Beau and I...went to thank you, Ethel...for the kind and warm hospitality which you showed us during our stay with you. I do hope that you are activating the mechanisms which I taught you. June 1973 Sage has some material on my work. And "What The Seers Predict For 1971" Lancer pocketbook, by Brad Steiger, 3 years ago...I predicted on page 145 what is happening to President Nixon right now! Well, Ethel...as you know...Beau and I tried to trade you out of your pickup truck, simply because, as I told you...the SI's communicated and told me to do that. While you were thinking about my offer, we drove up to Chico to visit Al and Pilar Bailey, who own the Chico Motor Lodge. You called and declined (perfectly natural to do so, considering.) That left us with our old beat-up car to get back to Virginia with. What happened next? I am still in shock from it. Al and Pilar Bailey GAVE US their beautiful, lovely, luxurious Lincoln-Continental. They told Beau and I that we and our work was far too important to risk allowing us to return to Virginia in our old beat-up Mercury! But were the SI's accurate in communicating with me...and instructing me to get a bigger, heavier car? Your pickup or, as it turned out...the Lincoln-Continental. Beau and I were passing through Atlanta, Georgia returning to Virginia, when suddenly we were smashed into FROM BEHIND, without any warning...by another car going 60 miles per hour! If we'd been in our '65 Merc, we'd have been hospitalized or killed. No doubt of it at all! The police arrested the driver of the other car. His car was totally demolished. Beau and I were not even shaken up. Our car simply had a 3-foot dent in the trunk, and we proceeded on our way as if nothing had happened! Safe and sound. Now, perhaps, you can see...the wisdom and tremendous precognitive ability of the SI's! They KNEW we were going to be hit in Atlanta, Georgia! And they were desperately trying to get a bigger, tougher car around us...for when it happened! AND THEY DID. And we were saved. After the tremendous smashing crash...Beau and I could not believe our eyes when we got out of our Lincoln-Continental. The other car was smashed to pieces...the front smashed in like an accordian...headlights and other lights smashed out...then we checked our trunk...no lights broken or even scratched...everything intact. Just a dent. My God Almighty. Talk about having invisible protection! We must have it! And on top of that...Beau and I didn't even feel the impact of the car smashing into us! Best wishes to you,... Ted Owens (PK Man) Owen Cape Charles, Va. === Page 5 of 16 Death Comes In Box Cloud By John Shurr Associated Press Writer "There's people lying everywhere, some of them dead and some of them injured." Sportshop owner Farrell Coppin had just returned from what had been the downtown area of Keefeton and couldn't believe what a tornado had done to the small community. "I've seen seven or eight dead," Coppin said. "They're just gathering them up everywhere. There are supposed to be some more in the houses." The Oklahoma Highway Patrol, however, had reported only four deaths and a hospital in nearby Muskogee said three victims had been brought there. Coppin and his wife, Lois, run a small sportshop and beauty salon about a mile from the downtown area of Keefeton. Both were at the business when the twister tore through about 5 p.m. "It come in from the west and it was a brownish gray color," Mrs. Coppin said. "It was just whirlin'. I could see it on the mountain where it was blowing the trees real bad." "It was something you'd never believe. It didn't have a funnel shape to it, it was just a square type box," she added. "It just jumped up on everybody," Mr. Coppin said. "It was all over before anybody knowed it. I thought it was just another storm." The center of the town -- composed of six or eight stores -- was destroyed. A Continued on Page 4, Col. 1 "The Sunday Oklahoman" May 27, 1973 Section A Death Comes In Box Cloud Continued From Page One grocery store owned by Otis Evans was demolished and officials were digging through the rubble because they feared several people might be buried there. Paul Pierce's service station was flattened and Civil Defense officials were concerned that fires might be ignited from the ruptured gas lines. After the storm had passed, all that was left of Leo Grebb's Dairy Delight drive-in was the neon sign. It still glowed. High voltage lines east of the city were also downed. A used car lot and junk yard owned by Keith Purdom was wiped out and the trailer where Purdom lived was missing. Debris from the businesses were scattered into an open field about a mile to the east of the main part of town. Many trees were uprooted and nearly every piece of foliage in the area had been picked clean of its leaves. Horses and cattle were left dead and crippled in the fields. The Coppins considered themselves lucky. "The tornado didn't do any damage down here. It just hailed," Mrs. Coppin said. "It's just about destroyed Keefeton, though," Mr. Coppin added. (Sent from Fort Sill, by Andy Earman) === Page 6 of 16 May 17, 1973 President Idi Amin Uganda Africa Dear Mr. President: Says UFO Sign Of 'Good Luck For Uganda' President Idi Amin of Uganda saw an unidentified flying object recently and claims it was a sign of good luck for his small African nation. Amin witnessed a strange object splash into historic Lake Victoria and then "lift off like a rocket being fired but moving gently," said Radio Uganda. Amin proclaimed his UFO sighting to be of "Great significance" and "a sign of good luck to Uganda." After the sighting, Amin went directly from the lake to a prayer meeting. He urged others who had seen the thing to follow his example. This is the most important letter that you have ever received. This letter is being written in reference to the UFO that you recently saw with your own eyes, at Lake Victoria. BEFORE your own sighting of the UFO... I wrote to the African officials in high government, as well as to William Holden, the American actor who has a ranch in Kenya... WITH A MESSAGE FROM THE UFOs! The message was... for them to bring me and my family over there... so that I can save Africa from its drought attack. You see, as the enclosed news clippings tell you... I am famous the world over as the "UFO Prophet". I work under the observation of seven scientists, some of them world-renowned men. At this date I have brought about 288 miracles, which have been documented and proved, thusly. These miracles have been written about at great length in American magazines and books. I refer you to August and Sept. 1970 Saga magazine; March and April 1971 Saga magazine. There were others, but these four are the best of the lot. Then there is the book, "Occult America", by John Godwin, hardcover, which describes my work; the book, "Revelation: The Divine Fire" by Brad Steiger, hardcover, which describes my work; the book "What The Seers Predict For 1971", then "What The Seers Predict For 1972"... two different books, paperback, written by Brad Steiger, which have chapters on my work; currently there is a paperback book "Predictions For 1973" by Glenn McWane, which has my work described. All of these paperback books mentioned describe the work of the world's greatest psychics, of which I am one, of course. They call me the UFO Prophet because I am half UFO creature myself. For ten years I have been working for and with the UFO beings, and this is borne out by the incredible miracles which I have performed, with the help of the UFOs. Long ago the UFO beings captured me in the Mexican desert, and modified my brain... to make me one of them. I can communicate with them at will... and many times have brought them down out of the skies so that they could be observed by witnesses. This is documented. I did this for one scientist, Dr. Juan Arenas, of Mayaguez, Puerto Rico, who flew me over there for that purpose. Now for the purpose of this letter: The UFO beings are giving you, President Amin, the choice of whether Africa is to be saved, or destroyed. That was why they let you see them; and let me see the article reporting it. They want you, sir, to bring me and my family over there for 3-6 months... to use your base as my operating headquarters... to bring the rains to Africa, and save Africa. They also want you... to reward me and my family for doing this... since my time and work will suffer in the U.S. from this six month's absence, and it will be quite a hardship for us to store our furniture here, give up our rented house, and come way over there. Let me spell it out... if you obey the UFO beings... then I will come over there and save Africa. If you do not obey the UFO beings... Africa will be pretty much destroyed by drought and other factors. It is up to you. If you like I will fly over there first and see you, without my family... to show you my credentials and ample documentation... but I assure you that is not necessary. Sincerely, Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 48, Cape Charles, Va. === Page 7 of 16 May 9, 1973 (May 20) Mr. Brad Steiger Dear Brad: Just a note to point out...one of my predictions in your book, "What The Seers Predict For 1971". I refer you to page 145. "President Nixon will not end in office. Something most unusual will occur, and he will either resign or be forced out of office." Better than that, at precog.

Ted Owens (PK Man) Owens === Page 8 of 16 May 26, 1973 while studying with Ed Owens at his home in Cape Charles, Virginia - We had been returning from town in Ed's auto. Before Ed stopped his car to make a hard-right turn into his driveway - we looked either way for several blocks on the street for other traffic. The street was empty of all cars. When Ed was only halfway through his turn into his driveway - a 3/4 ton pickup truck simply "appeared" about 10-15 feet from Ed's auto travelling at a speed of 35-45 miles per hour on a collision course. The driver made no apparent effort to avoid an impact. The 3/4 ton truck stopped about 4-6 inches from Ed's door - with its driver's head jammed up against the cab roof of his truck. There was no sound of screeching brakes ??? Something "stopped" the truck other than its driver. The 3/4 ton truck simply drove away after Ed moved into his driveway. Kenneth L. Gregerson Granite Falls, Wash. === Page 9 of 16 May 28, 1973 Warren Fred Otto George Al Last week, about Tuesday, I sent you a breakdown, Si info, on the Watergate gang setup. I talked about "suicides" coming up. Only took a couple of days. Congressman Mills suicided. He was on the fringes of the Gang, as you perhaps read. Tied into the Gang with a personal loan of some sort. A big one. That's one. Incidentally, "Predictions For 1973" has a fine predict by me on this Watergate mess situation. See "corruption in high government" ...and "it will be discovered in 1973 that ours is no longer a government of, by, and for the people"! Take a look. See p. 72!! Now I've one more thing to add...to the info sent you last week. The "M/S" gang, Mafia/Syndicate...is masterminded by powerful financiers in the world...Onassis, Howard Hughes, Hunt, and so on. THEY make the policy and steer the "ship"...and M/S is their muscle, carrying out the dirty-work action. Their purpose was to "take" the world...by first gaining control of the U.S., most powerful country...from the White House on down the line...so that they could make and dictate our policy, rig the Market, control things like the Russian Wheat Deal, drug control, firearm control, and so forth. And of course, with their combined finances...very little could stand up against them...since they could have anybody killed, anywhere, who opposed them. The ONLY shield against them...was principle, morals, ethics. Their money went over, under and around just about everybody's principle, morals and ethics...except a handful...Sirrica, etc....and only this handful, beat them THIS TIME. But...they'll be back with a "new ballgame" in time ahead. Ted Owens (PK Man) Box 48, Cape Charles, Virginia 23310 Owens === Page 10 of 16 Newsweek 6/4/73  Mills: 'A tragic overreaction' Waterbugger whose children have come in for some hazing. "You know how cruel other children can be." Egil Krogh's small son, Peter, got his baptism one day as he drove past the White House on a school outing. His classmates booed--and he burst into tears. But older offspring, at colleges and universities around the country, seem to be taking each day's developments in stride--maintaining the same stiff lip they always do when the talk turns to Washington. "This isn't a very good time to give interviews," said H.H. (Hank) Haldeman, 19, at UCLA recently. "It would not be helping my father." The first prize for good humor in the face of adversity probably goes to Jo-anne Haldeman. When a florist turned up with a potted plant from a well-wisher last week, Mrs. Haldeman told him to leave it on the stoop in the rain. She had a wry explanation: "I wanted to drown the bugs in it first." ### A Fatal Footnote The widening investigation into corruption at the financial wellsprings of the 1972 Nixon campaign claimed its first fatality last week: Rep. William O. Mills, 48, an obscure Maryland congressman--and protégé of former GOP National Chairman Rogers C.B. Morton--who found himself identified at the outermost fringe of the Watergate scandal, and chose death over that disgrace. The tragedy started almost as a footnote to a report on the President's 1972 finance committee released last week by the General Accounting Office. According to the report, the congressman accepted a $25,000 loan in 1971 from Nixon campaign funds. Mills used the money to bankroll his successful bid to fill the House seat left vacant when Morton signed on with the Nixon Cabinet as Secretary of the Interior. The money came from a $1.7 million fund administered by the President's personal lawyer, Herbert Kalmbach--the same fund that was later allegedly used to finance the Watergate burglary--and Mills failed to report the windfall to the Maryland Board of Elections, possibly in violation of state law. Unusual: No one accused Mills of any involvement in the Watergate affair himself, and officials from the Committee for the Re-election of the President explained that the contribution, though unusual (it was handed over in cash) was free of Watergate taint. "It would have been an embarrassment to lose that seat to a Democrat," observed one GOP topsider. "At the time we needed all the votes we could get in Congress." For the moment, Mills's only connection with the scandal seemed to be that he had fed from the same money trough that later nourished the Waterbuggers. But even that distant association hurt. "He wasn't wringing his hands," recalled one friend in Washington last week, "but he reflected great pain." Mills anguished for three days with his friends and family (a wife, Norma Lea, a son, 16, and a married daughter, 24). He denied any wrongdoing on local television near his shore home in Easton, Md., and in a taped radio message. Then a little before 6 the next morning, Mills left his house, drove to a nearby stable, Mulberry Hill Farm, went into the barn and shot himself through the heart with a 12-gauge shotgun. Seven notes were found, one near his body, saying he didn't know how to prove his innocence--"there was no other way out." Friends were stunned. "He was so remote from Watergate," said one. "it was a tragic overreaction." ### POLITICS: ### Percy's Gamble Jetting across the country these days, Illinois Sen. Charles Percy flips frequently through a pack of file cards bearing his latest Watergate wisecracks (one somewhat limp sample: "I have found far more support for my prison-reform legislation since Watergate broke open"). In a spate of personal appearances from Washington, D.C., to La Crosse, Wis., he bolsters his warm-up jokes with fat paragraphs of indignation. Watergate, Percy likes to tell the crowds, "is an outrage to decent men everywhere ... and I am one of them." Some fellow Republicans question Percy's political decency, but he is certainly outraged. More than any other national political figure, and certainly more than any other Republican, Charles Percy has made Watergate his personal issue for now--and perhaps a solid base for a run at the White House in 1976. Percy's gadfly tactic is a sharp contrast to the pre-Presidential stance of his leading Republican rivals. Vice President Agnew and John Connally both have their fortunes linked to the President's; Connally seized the Watergate opportunity to switch to the GOP as a Nixon loyalist. New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller and California Gov. Ronald Reagan see their chances rising in proportion to Mr. Nixon's injuries, but cannily say as little as possible about the whole messy business. Reagan won't even concede that the Watergate buggers are properly classified as criminals ("They're not criminals at heart"). Mr. Clean: But Percy has clashed with Mr. Nixon before--over Vietnam, the ABM and G. Harrold Carswell's nomination to the Supreme Court--and he sees Watergate as a chance to take the moral lead. Even though he clearly risks alienating GOP loyalists around the country, his Mr. Clean approach has brought him phenomenal success with Illinois voters, and he is betting that it will work as well nationwide. The President's Watergate message had barely faded from the TV screen last month when Percy introduced a Senate resolution--passed by 5-0 when the floor was nearly empty--calling for a special prosecutor in the case. "The executive branch should not be investigating itself," he declared. The President reportedly fumed at a Cabinet meeting that Percy was making a cynical bid for the Presidency, and predicted he would fail "as long as I have anything to say about it." But Percy was ready with a stinging counterattack. Said the senator: "I think it's absolutely ghoulish that the President would raise a political issue in the midst of a scandal that is shaking the country to its roots." Mess: Percy continued his campaign after last week's statement by the President. It was, he said, still too little, too late. Calling big money the root of most political evil, the millionaire senator has also proposed a campaign-spending reform act with stiff criminal penalties. The strategy may seem a little opportunistic to those who remember how the senator skirted Watergate last year in his own campaign. Indeed, when his outspoken wife began talking to reporters about "the disgusting mess" that was then just beginning to unfold, Percy all but kicked her in the shins ("Now, Lorraine ..."). "Chuck does seem to rush up front at the last minute on some things," concedes a political ally. Conservative GOP leaders are more outspoken. "He's always looking out for himself," fumes state Rep. Henry Hyde. "This is the time the President and the party need help and support." But Percy maintains that even Republican voters will respond to a candidate who tries to expose the full story of Watergate and cleanse his party in the process. "The man who picks up the pieces on this has to be independent," he told Newsweek's Tony Fuller. "If the price I have to pay for my independence is some criticism from the so-called professionals, then I'll pay it." Newsweek, June 4, 1973 30 === Page 11 of 16 # Hunt Said Not Incapacitated July '73 WASHINGTON (UPI) -- The U. S. Bureau of Prisons medical director said Saturday that Watergate conspirator E. Howard Hunt has symptoms "consistent with a stroke" but is not incapacitated. Dr. Robert Brutsche said it is not anticipated that Hunt will be hospitalized or transferred from the federal prison at Danbury, Conn., where he is being held pending final sentencing for his part in masterminding the June 17, 1972, break-in at Democratic national headquarters at the Watergate complex. "It is a stable problem, without incapacitation," Brutsche said, while not ruling out further medical tests on Hunt. Washington Post writer Maxine Cheshire quoted Hunt's literary agent, Donald MacCampbell, as saying that Hunt apparently has suffered a stroke that left one of his legs partially paralyzed. Brutsche said the question of a stroke is "moot--it could be some other kind of illness." Brutsche said doctors "can place no time" on when illness began. But MacCampbell said Hunt believes it was brought on by a fight the convicted conspirator had in June with a cellmate in the District of Columbia jail. He was examined by doctors at Danbury after he complained of illness. The Post quoted MacCampbell as saying that Hunt, 54, has been "deteriorating rapidly -- both physically and psychologically." "He looks like an old man," MacCampbell said. "He was in such bad shape that he couldn't even draft a letter. I had to do it for him." Hunt, code-named "the Writer" while taking part in the Watergate and other operations, will soon have 17 books in print, according to MacCampbell. SCIENTISTS.......... I predicted rather recently...that the key Watergate crooks...were all in great danger from assassination by orders of The Rich Gang...international and national financiers. Now, one of the biggest witnesses in the Watergate affair...is Howard Hunt. I predicted to you...or to Warren Smith for his oncoming book...that Mrs. Hunt, Howard Hunt's wife was murdered in that plane crash. No accident there. So now Hunt, inside prison, has a "stroke". Well, you say...if he were in prison...how could the Rich Gang get to him? Remember Jack Ruby? He's the man who unexplainedly and mysteriously shot down President Kennedy's alleged killer. (I knew Jack Ruby...he had to be ORDERED to do a thing like that...he wasn't a cuckoo.) All right. Kennedy was gotten out of the way; Ruby killed Kennedy's killer; then what do you know...JACK RUBY DEVELOPED CANCER WHILE IN PRISON AND DIED. For your information...if you do not know it already...cancer can be injected into a human being deliberately. Not long ago some test tubes which contained cancer-producing agencies were stolen from a laboratory down in Florida...and a newspaper blurb warned the thief about it. One does not have to murder with gun or knife...one can murder by injecting an airbubble into the victim's blood stream...or injecting cancer-producing agencies into the victim. And my psychic ability tells me that that is what was done to Ruby. Now if Hunt suddenly, with no previous cancer history, expires from a sudden attack of metastasis...which is what I expect to happen...you will know that my psychic hunch about all this is correct. Of course, the Rich Gang could easily hire convicts they know who are in prison with Hunt...to fight with Hunt and injure him mentally so that he cannot testify...and it would all look quite nature, for prison doings. But I think...cancer-producing agents have been injected into Hunt. And it is quite possible...that the Rich Gang have just done this with President Nixon...when he went into hospital in July (same as Hunt, but with different symptoms...alleged symptoms.) So that Nixon will come down with cancer, and depart the picture, along with key witness Hunt. If the Rich Gang "has" a doctor in the White House situation...and why not? Look at the huge bunch of top people they have, who've been discovered...then that doctor could easily see to it that Nixon be given a shot for flu...except it contains cancer producing agencies. One other thing...I have pointed out in a recent communication...that non-pros were used by the Rich Gang to set up the "almost" take-over of the U.S. by the White House Gang. Non-pros. Get that. Now think about this: President Kennedy was murdered with a rifle that cost about $13.00. An old, used rifle bought from a mailorder house. Robert Kennedy was === Page 12 of 16 murdered by a man who used a cheap Saturday night special .22 pistol. Governor Wallace was shot by a man who used an imitation Colt pistol... another Saturday night special .38, a cheap gun. I point out the obvious pattern. ALL THESE WEAPONS WERE NON-PRO WEAPONS. I wonder if I make myself clear. To kill a President...you would expect an elaborate, expensive high-power rifle. Not a used, $13 model using European ammo. To kill the President's brother, you would expect that an expensive pistol, fitted with a silencer, would be used. Not a cheap .22, a piece of junk. To kill a Governor...and with the man stalking his prey for weeks... apparently bankrolled by "somebody" to make it possible...you would have thought that an expensive, finely-tooled .45 or .38 would be used for that purpose. But no...a cheap, junky imitation Colt .38 was used...I believe made in Spain, or some such place. In other words...the incredibly intelligent brains behind these shootings...had their gunman-tool use a non-professional weapon, to make it look like a non-professional job. The whole slough of top White House men who have been apprehended... were not pros...they were picked that way and patiently maneuvered into position...so that if things went wrong, it would not look like a professionally set-up job...non-pro...just "something a bunch of fellows cooked up themselves." The shootings...and the near take over of the U.S. from inside the White House...HAD TO HAVE THE APPEARANCE OF NOT HAVING BEEN PLANNED INTRICATELY. Non-professional, as it were. The trademark of a top "hit" man...is to make his murders look like accidents, or "something that just happened, like a heart attack". Ted Owens (PK Man) PS...oh, just one other thing. In National News Exploiter, a Chicago publication, in their issue dated September 17, 1972...they had an article on me...accompanied by three photos. One photo was of Liz Taylor and Richard Burton...because in the article I was predicting that those two would get divorced. They are now in the divorce courts. There was a photo of President Nixon...because in the article I stated "President Nixon won't complete his second term in office. He will either resign, or be forced out." Under the photo of Nixon it says, "President Nixon will be unable to finish his term." Well, you are watching what is happening at Watergate now...and you know that this week a move was made for Nixon's impeachment in Congress. === Page 13 of 16 MESSAGE CONFIRMATION COPY 7010 TED OWENS BOX 48 CAPE CHARLES VA 23301 July 19, 1973 8043311208 NL TDMT CAPE CHARLES VA 100 07-19 0411P EST PMS SENATOR SAM ERVIN CHAIRMAN SENATE COMMITTEE WATERGATE, DLR CAPITOL HILL DC AM ONE OF WORLDS MAJOR PSYCHIC.

Mills Apparently Is a Suicide Continued from Page 1-A was alleged to have received the secret funds, were killed in an auto accident near Annapolis, Md., on Feb. 3, 1972. Mills had been under investigation for failing to report to state election officials a $25,000 cash contribution to his 1971 campaign that allegedly came from secret funds obtained by the Finance Committee to Re-elect the President. Mills denied several times this week that he had done anything wrong. Wednesday night he called the Easton, Md., radio station WEMD about 10 P. M. and reiterated the denials. He added that he was aware of the money but had been told that "all spending approvals and all reporting were being handled by a committee in Washington." "I wish to assure everyone that I have done nothing wrong," he said in his last known public statement. In Washington, Rep. Bob Wilson (R., Calif.), who was chairman of the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee in 1971 and a friend of Mills, said that he asked Mills if he was telling the truth in denying the reports. Mills said that he was, and Wilson said he told him, "Then you don't have anything to worry about." Morton said that he arranged for the Nixon Finance Committee to provide the money to Mills' campaign, but that he had never discussed the contribution with the congressman. Hugh W. Sloan, former treasurer of the Nixon campaign organization, has told Congressional auditors that the $25,000 was part of $1.7 million which was secretly raised and disbursed before the Federal Election Campaign Act went into effect April 7, 1972. After the special election in 1971, Mills signed a notarized statement reporting a total of $9,395 "received by me or by any person for me with my knowledge or consent, from any source." From Our Wire Services EASTON, Md. -- Rep. William O. Mills (R., Md.), was found dead, apparently of a self-inflicted shotgun wound early Thursday, five days after disclosures that he had received secret financial aid from the Nixon campaign organization in 1971. Mills was found by a caretaker about 7:05 A.M. in a barn where he kept his horses on a farm near here. He usually went to the barn early every morning to feed the horses. A hospital official said Mills suffered a large shotgun wound in the chest and was dead on arrival at Easton Memorial Hospital. There were powder burns on his clothes. County State's Attorney William D. Horne said that "there is no evidence of foul play." A hospital spokesman, asked if it was suicide, said: "He was shot at close range, he was by himself -- what else could it be?" Mills, 48, was an administrative assistant to Interior Secretary Rogers C. B. Morton when he was a Maryland congressman. He succeeded Morton in a special election in 1971. House Speaker Carl Albert (D., Okla.), canceled the day's business. Flags on all Federal buildings in Washington were lowered to half-staff. "The news has shaken us all," Albert said. It was the second tragedy to hit Mills' office in a little more than a year. His three top aides, including campaign manager James Webster, who Continued on Page 3-A, Col. 8 SCIENTISTS... I wrote to Warren Smith, Brad Steiger, Otto Binder, Al Bailey and George Delevan, last week... that murders-to-look-like-suicide would soon begin to happen amid the Watergate Gang. It only took two days until after my letter... till Mills "apparent suicide". That... is one. There will be more. Especially in great danger are the key figures talking to Sen. Ervin, plus Martha Mitchell and her hubby. And McCord, Dean and CIA Helms... had better watch out, or they'll be a "suicide" right quick.

A Marine Corps spokesman identified the pilot as Capt. Eric L. Rooth, 30, of Bay City, Matagorda County, assigned to the 112th Marine Reserve Fighter Attack Squadron based at the air station. Rooth was rescued moments after he bailed out by an LTV Aerospace Corp. helicopter and was taken to the air station hospital, where he was reported uninjured. The LTV-built jet fighter crashed into the unpopulated Mountain Creek Lake Wildlife Preserve east of the lake. Marine Corps and federal investigators were called to the scene to determine the cause of the crash. Gunnery Sergeant Jerry Simmons, public affairs chief, said Rooth was concluding a routine training flight at 4 p.m. when he ejected from the craft for unknown reasons. Simmons said Rooth's ejection seat and parachute were found in a wooded area about 200 yards behind the crash site. The aircraft plowed a 3-foot-deep hole at the point of impact and slid another 150 feet before coming to rest. Dallas firemen reported small fires in the fuselage section and the cockpit section, which broke away from the main body of the plane and lodged against a tree 50 feet away. Marines on the scene said the plane apparently was intact when Rooth ejected. They estimated the pilot was flying at an altitude of 300 to 400 feet at the time. The plane reportedly was flying directly over some power lines at the moment of ejection.

Most of the world's more extreme climatic zones face droughts -- and occasionally flooding -- from time to time. But this year weather conditions have coincided in widely separated parts of the globe, ruining already inadequate agriculture and stretching relief reserves to the limit. Millions of people are going hungry as a result of droughts in Central America, Asia, India and Africa. Even Cyprus, in the Mediterranean, is experiencing its lowest rainfall for 80 years and the winter grain crop has failed almost completely. This comes after food production per head fell for the second successive year in the developing regions of the world. Production of food rose by one per cent in 1972, but the population rose by four per cent. **HOTTEST** This means that in many countries -- with the hottest summer months still to come -- there is simply not enough food to go around. In India one of the worst droughts in years has so far affected about 200 million people -- slightly less than the entire population of the U.S. The government has had to rush grain by special trains to relieve the situation in the western state of Maharashtra where at least six people have been killed in recent food riots. Reserve stocks of grain built up in years of good harvests are virtually exhausted, and the outlook for the summer months is grim. **DROPS** In the neighboring Himalayan kingdom of Nepal, British Royal Air Force transports have dropped nearly 2000 tons of food into famine-hit areas which have had two bad crop years. The Nepalese government has described the situation in some parts as "the greatest food crisis we have had in our whole history." India's southern neighbor Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, rarely suffers from the crippling droughts which plague India, but nevertheless was hit by the failure of last year's spring monsoon. **RECOVER** Further to the east, Indonesia is only just beginning to recover from the effects of a drought which persisted through the last six months of last year. Indonesia was forced to import some 1.3 million tons of rice in 1972, but estimates for current production are optimistic. The effects of even one bad harvest can be disastrous; seed stocks are depleted, food reserves run down, and farm animals are often left to die when famine forces humans to compete for the same food and water supplies. Drought does not avoid the scene of previous natural disasters. In the Central American republic of Nicaragua, struggling to overcome an earthquake which devastated its capital last December, the water shortage is critical. Central America's worst drought in 30 years has caused total crop damage estimated at $100 million, and has provoked a state of emergency in Costa Rica and Honduras. **IMPORT** All the members of the Central American common market -- Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Honduras -- face large import bills for food to replace ruined domestic supplies. But Guatemalan weathermen say the worst may be over. The first rains of the season are beginning to fall in Guatemala and El Salvador. The largest area hit by this year's rash of worldwide droughts is a 2000-mile strip of West African territory south of the Sahara desert, and unlike other areas, there is no prospect of imminent relief. From the Atlantic coast of Mauritania to the barren wastes of Chad in the center of the continent, no rain at all has fallen this year. The drought is also crippling much of Senegal, Mali, Upper Volta, Niger and parts of northern Nigeria, disrupting the livelihood of more than 25 million people. Crops are one-third of what they have been in the past, and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep are dying of thirst. International aid has so far been out of step with the extent of the catastrophe, and the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) estimates the crisis will continue for another five months. In northern Ethiopia, on the other side of Africa, rivers and ponds are dry and hundreds of cattle are dying because of the drought which has prevailed there since Christmas. As in many other countries, the chronic shortage of grain in parts of Ethiopia has led to hoarding, which in turn leads to soaring prices, and increases the plight of the poorest. Scientists agree that the droughts and freakish weather over many parts of the world may signal global changes in climate and some experts are even wondering it another Ice Age is on its way, rays back into space. Some American researchers have noted that in a five-year period the mean temperature of the atmosphere in the northern hemisphere fell by more than a half a degree centigrade, but were careful to say that this was likely to be a short-term fluctuation. Some Soviet metereologists maintain that the climate of Northern Europe, Asia and America will get "markedly warmer" by the year 2000 and link this with the known recession of the polar ice. Whatever the long-term implications of the present widespread droughts, the problem of those countries affected -- which by a cruel accident of fate are for the most part "underdeveloped" -- is present and immediate. The American Nobel Peace Prize winner Norman Borlaug, who started the "green revolution" with his new strains of high-yielding cereals, has called for a world food bank to be set up to solve the problem. Dr. Addeke Boerma, director of the FAO, showed how far the world is from achieving this when he told the Paris newspaper Le Monde recently: "The world's present stocks of cereals amount to only 30 million tons, their lowest level since 1952. But since 1952 the world's population has increased by half. The present reserves are only equivalent to what the United States consumes in seven weeks."
