WASHINGTON (1P) The ;Senate Ethics Commit'
unanimously recommended yesterday the censure of Sen.
Thomas J. Dodd, accusing him of financial misconduct
which "tends to bring the Senate into dishonor and disre
pute.l • I
Defiant and insisting he is jinnocent, the Connecticut
Democrat said he will fight the charges, stay at his post in
the Senate, and run for re-election in 1970:
Sen. John Stennis (D-Miss.)i pronounced in the Senate
the judgment of the six member committee, which he heads.
Dodd. listened in silence. After 14 months of investigation
that process took six minutes.
Is;
Now the white-haired Dodd's fate is in the hands of
the Senate itself, the Inteinal Revenue SerVice and the
JustiCe Department. i
- 1 Key Findings
The bipartisan committee—three Democrats and three
Republicans—based its recommendation on these two key
findings: 1 1 -
0 That the Connecticut senator used at least $116,083 in
politically-raised campaign and itestimonial funds "for his
personal purposes."
i That Dodd billed both the ;s enate and private organi
zations for seven trips he made between 1961 and 1965.
It criticized, without censuring, his r_elationship with
Julius Klein, an agent for West Germany business interests.
And it said the Justice Department and the Internal
Revemie Service should consider "possible violation's of I
law" in Dodd's financial maneuvers.
At'the heart of the 27-page report was the resolution of
censure Stennis presented to the Senate. It declares: .
"Resolved, that it is the judgment of the Senate .that

for Dodd
a week from Monday.
"It won't take me very long," Dodd sid. "I want to pre
pare a detailed and a complete answer. 7
""I have done nothing wrong," he said. "My conscience
is clear." "
Should the Senate approve the resolution which re
quires only a majority vote Dodd will become the fifth
man in its history to be formally. censured or condemned
by the body.
Censure would not strip him of seniority or impose any
specific penalty. The punishment wouldi:onsist of whatever
stigma might be attached to a censure resolution in the
minds of collagues, the voters and the general public.
McCarthy Foresees Passage
Dodd would not forecast whether the Senate will adopt
the resolution but a committee member, Sen. Eugene J.
McCarthy (D.Minn.), predicted it will. 'Dodd said he will
make his defense from the floor and will not aproach indi
vidual senators tcr seek their support.
Dodd criticized the committee, accusing it of judging
him on hindsight because there were no established rules
of conduct for: senators.
Sen. Wallace F. Bennett (R-Utah): vice chairman of
the bipartisari committee, said expulsion from the Senate
would have been too severe a course.
Exclusion, was the course chosen in the House, in the
case of Adam Clayton Powell.
Powell, accused of misusing public funds and defying
a libel judgment in New York court, has been re-elected by
his Harlem constituents since the House refused to seat him.
University Starts
Flying Bookmobile
Education borrowed a page from the "jet set" today
as the Univeriity and federal government joined forces
in launching what is believed to -be . the nation's first
"flying bookmobile" program.
Using the' daily commuter airline service between
Washington, ac. and University Park, the unique pro
gram will give the University almost instant access to the
several million volumes of the three national libraries
in the nation's capital.
"We will be able to send a teletype message in the
morning for a book we need and have it delivered by the
commuter plane that' evening," according to W. Carl
Jackson, director of libraries for the University.
At the same time, he added, if any of the libraries
in Washington have need of a volume which the Univer
sity library possesses they too can take advantage of the
new "flying books service."
The program was officially initiated with ceremonies
this afternoon at the National Airport in Washington.
Participants included Mrs. Orville Freeman, wife of
the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture; George L. Mehren, as
sistant secretary of Agriculture; Foster M. Mohrhardt,
director of the National Library of Agriculture; Mrs.
Blanche Oliveri, assistant director for programs with the
National "Library of Agriculture; Leland H. Bull, Penn
sylvania's Secretary of Agriculture; Russell E. Larson,
dean of the College of Agriculttire at the University and
Jackson.
Involved are the University librarv, and the National
.Thraries of Agriculture, Medicine and... Congress in ,Wash
ington.
"Actually, Penn State has been exchanging books for
years with the three Washington libraries through the
Inter-Library Loan system, but up until now the process
has often taken as much as two or three weeks," Jackson
said.
Faculty members in need of a book not in our library
had to have the'request sent to one of the. Washington li
braries. By the time the book was finally received, days
or weeks often had elapsed.
Johnson Joins Fight
To/Save Education Aid
WASHINGTON (AP)
President Johnson joined the
fight yesterday to save his
landmark federal ai d pro
gram for elementary and se
condary schools by accusing
Republican critics' of a "reck
less effort to rewrite our laws
for partisan political advant
age."
House Democratic leaders,
meanwhile, put off again, un
til al least the week after
n e x t. consideration of the
measure. They appear to be
uncertain about the strength
of a GOP drive to restructure
the legislation to transfer ma
jor control to the states.
Angry .floor debate broke
out with Democrats accusing
the Republicans of trying to
resurrect the church-state is
sue. which.helped ,block fed
eral school aid until 1965. Re
publicans denied the accusa
tion.
56.7 Billion at Stake
At stake is the $6.7-billion
two year extension of the
education program in what is
increasingly becoming a par
tisan fight.
Republicans want state
educational officials to have
control over apportioning the
school aid to local districts,
which is now done by the fed
eral office of :education.
Democrats argue this would
divert aid from t h e needy
school districts which are the

"I hope members of Con
gress wi 1 stop, look and listen
before they march down this
blind alley," Johnson said in
a speecif. at the dedication of
a vocational education center
in . the Washington suburb of
Camp Springs, Md.
'Only the Beginning'
The gains we have so far
are only the beginning," he
added.
"We must build on them.
But we must not lose all we
have gained by this reckless
effort to rewrite our laws for
partisan political advantage."
Taking aim at Republicans'
repeated- revisions of their
plan, Johnson said: "No one
can tell' for sure how they
plan tcr.ithange the law. Each
day they trot out a new ver
sion. But already they have
accompgshed a great deal.
"They - have stirred up the
suspicious of the poor states.

They are, reviving ancient and

and public school leaders."
