(^P) — A red light may soon shine amidst the neon of Las Vegas. The dis trict attorney has drafted an or dinance to legalize prostitution, a majority of county commis sioners say their initial reaction is favorable and public protest has been nil in this state where legal gambling is a major indus try. Nevada has no state laws re garding prostitution and it has flourished since the Silver Rush days in the state’s rural coun ties. It has been outlawed as a public nuisance in Las Vegas and Reno since World War II. The proposal prepared by Dist. Atty. Roy Woofter is titled “An ordinance making it lawful to operate houses of ill fame in Clark County.” The ordinance allows only one brothel per 500,000 population, limiting the county to one at this time, and restricts its location to an area west of the Las Vegas Strip near the freeway from Los Angeles. Three of the five county com missioners have said their ini tial reaction is favorable for li censing a legal brothel. The commission says it will make its decision after public hearings on the proposal. A hearing date is pending. Proponents say legalized pros titution will reduce the activity of the hookers who now work the Strip, reduce the crime prob lem spawned by such prostitutes and help curb the area’s soaring venereal disease rate.

(AP Wirephoto) WASHINGTON (A>)_Accusing supersonic transport opponents of promoting a “realm of hys teria,” an industry-labor com mittee announced Monday a mas sive advertising drive to get the public and Congress behind the plane. American Industry and Labor for the SST accused opponents at a news conference of “gross ly exaggerated attacks on noise and polluting effects” and ar gued the plane is within a few years of bearing fruit as an economy-expanding, job - provid ing industry of the future. The committee announced the drive will start Tuesday with full-page advertisements in all three Washington daily newspa pers, directed at Congress which decides next month whether to keep the program alive. “Congress’ First Question on the SST,” the ad says, taking up the argument that Russian and British-French SSTs already are flying: “Not Will It Be Built, Mississippi delta declared major disaster by Nixon By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS President Nixon declared the Mississippi Delta a major disas ter area Monday as a result of dozens of tornadoes which killed 82 persons and destroyed an es timated $7.5 million in property. Meanwhile, new destruction and death were caused by twisters that struck in Fayetteville, N.C., and Columbus, Ohio. Two tornadoes hit Fayetteville and other parts of heavily popu lated Cumberland County late in the day. At least two persons were killed, more than 30 per sons were injured and property damage was said to be extensive.

Houses were reported de stroyed, power and telephone lines were downed and numerous business places were severely damaged in Fayetteville. Other towns in the southern North Carolina county hit by twisters were Wade, Falcon, EaStover and Beard. At least two tornadoes skipped through the densely populated east side of Columbus. Seven persons were reported injured and five buildings leveled as the twisters cut a three-block-wide path. Nixon’s action, coming at the request of Mississippi Gov. John Bell Williams, releases federal funds for use in hard-hit sec tions of the state. The tornadoes, which may have numbered as many as 100 ac cording to official estimates, moved through an area of Mis- sippi and Louisiana on Sunday, leaving hundreds homeless and virtually destroying the com munity of Inverness, Miss. But By Whom and Where?” Donald J. Strait, a Fairchild Hiller Corp. vice president and the committee’s industry co- chairman, said the nationwide drive has a $350,000 budget and its primary aim is to develop what he called a grassroots let ter-writing move by citizens to their congressmen to vote for the plane. Floyd E. Smith, president of the AFL-CIO International As sociation of Machinists and the committee’s labor co-chairman, said advertisements ia labor pub lications will urge rank-and-file members to write their congress men. Fairchild Hiller has $34 mil lion in contracts to develop the SST’s tail and a midsection. The machinists union said 101,500 employes of SST contractors and subcontractors across the coun try have been laid off because of a slowdown in aviation pro duction. But Strait said the committee was set up to Coordinate and di rect all industry and labor hack ing for the plane—and denied the committee was formed from fear the plane’s continued fed eral funding is in trouble. “We think we’ve got a damn good chance of winning,” he said. An Associated Press nose- count last week showed growing House opposition to continuing $1.3-billion federal funds project ed for building two SST proto types by 1973, with 202 House members against it, 188 for and 43 undecided or uncommitted.
