a vile tear-jerker called "Paul Jacobs and the Nuclear Gang" may have been televised by the PBS network on Feb. 25. It freely intermingles nuclear mushroom clouds with nuclear power reactors, claims that nuclear power causes cancer, and gives the rest of the anti-nuclear propaganda via Tamplin, Caldicott and other sobsisters. Paul Jacobs was an anti-nuclear activist who died last year, but not before he appeared in this film giving himself morphium injections and claiming that his cancer was caused by nuclear energy. Rep. M.McCormick (Wash.) has circulated a letter among his fellow Congressmen urging PBS to remove this grotesque propaganda piece from its program; should he have failed, write L.K.Grossman, President PBS, 475 L'Enfant Plaza West, SW, Wash. DC 20024, with copy to Rep. L.V.Deerlin, 2408 Rayburn H.O.B., Washington, DC 20515.
