The APA released excerpts of an editorial, written by Kelman, and planned for publication in the APA’s official newspaper, the APA Monitor. Kelman, a member of APA’s Board of Social and Ethical Re sponsibility for Psychology, says in part: “It is clear that the public con text for the homecoming of the POWs is primarily based on pol itical and public-relations consid erations. “The POWs have been assigned the role of heroes in a war that has no heroes — the central role in an elaborate drama staged to provide justification of the Presi dent’s policy, to create the illu sion of victory, and to arouse a House Sustains Nixon Veto WASHINGTON (A 5 ) — The House Tuesday sustained Presi dent Nixon’s veto of a $120 mil lion rural water and sewer grant bill that would have forced him to spend money appropriated by Congress. It was the first test in the House this year of Nixon’s veto power in the clash over the set ting of national spending priori ties. The House mustered a 225-189 vote that fell 51 short of the two- thirds majority needed to over ride. Voting to override Nixon’s veto were 200 Democrats and 25 Republicans, while 161 Republi cans were joined by 28 Democrats backing the President. Nixon thus registered his sec ond veto victory in a week. His veto of a bill authorizing a $2.6 billion program for rehabilitat ing the handicapped was sus tained in the Senate last week and therefore never reached the House. Prof Named Vice Chairman Of Oil Research Committee Dr. Paul B. Crawford, A&M professor of petroleum engineer ing, has been named vice chair man of the research committee of the Interstate Oil Compact Commission, a league of gover nors of some 30 oil producing states. Dr. Crawford, who has served as chairman for the past six years of the long-range research planning committee of the com pact, has written one segment of a book soon to be released by the compact which explains new techniques of increased oil recov ery from lone reservoirs. A program of the compact, due to be initiated in June, will con tain papers on deep sedimentary basins likely to contain oil and gas, and how to drill for oil to 30,000 feet. Geology of lightly to unexplored states for oil also will be covered in the future pro gram. “We are in the process of com piling a book describing several different methods of increasing the oil recovery from presently- known oil reservoirs,” Dr. Craw ford said. “These methods in clude fluid displacement, recov ery by fire flooding and steam injection.” He said methods outlined in the book have the potential of almost doubling the recovery of oil in which the new methods have ap plication. Dr. Crawford, who prepared the section of the book covering- fire flooding, said oil production today normally leaves five times as much oil underground as is being produced because of eco nomic considerations. It takes overriding votes of both chambers of Congress to write a bill into law over the President’s objections. “We are face to face with a confrontation that has been in the making for some time,” Speaker Carl Albert, D-Okla., told the House. “We are dealing, in a sense, with the basic consti tutional system of this nation. We are dealing with the author ity of the Congress of the United States to make the laws of the land.” Albert said there are many poor communities that “cannot possibly pay for the construction of water and sewage plants.” Bui the House Republican Pol icy Committee, headed by Rep. John J. Rhodes, R-Ariz., said the action by the House would test Nixon’s “policy of controlling government spending by elimi nating overlapping government services, a policy designed to save all Americans from the twin scourges of inflation and higher taxes.” In January, Nixon killed the rural program as part of what he termed his effort to hold down taxes and combat inflation. The House had voted 297-54 last month to require the President to spend an estimated $120 mil lion in the year ending June 30 and up to $330 million annually in the coming years. Nixon vetoed that bill lasf Thursday. The bill would have provided water and waste-disposal proj ect grants to communities with less than 10,000 persons. sense of patriotic fervor. “There can be little doubt that the POWs are being used for the po 1 i t i c a 1 manipulation of the American public. Whether this use is likely to be directly detri mental to their psychological well-being is a matter of judg ment and speculation.” He adds: “From all indications, the pub lic context of the homecoming de viated from the procedures rec ommended by psychologists work ing on Operation Homecoming and adopted by the Prisoner of War-Missing in Action Task Force in the Department of De fense itself, which envisaged a quiet, private homecoming, with out fanfare and crowds, in order to insure that the returnees would not be psychologically overwhelmed. “It seems the procedures that the psychological consultants and the Task Force consi 1 to be in the best interests of men were overruled by the litical and public-relations jectives of higher political military authorities.” The APA, in releasing the cerpts, said: “The hesitancy of the Depai ment of Defense to reveal ni({ cal and psychological care cedures for the POWs hi prompted the board to contiia in its investigation.” Bu lletin Board A&M Sports Car Club will dis cuss its summer programs at 7:30 p.m. in the Mimosa Room of the Old College Station City Hall, 101 Church Avenue.
