] Reagan campaigns for the MX
ASHLAND, Ohio (AP) — Pres. Ronald
Reagan, trying to turn up the heat on skeptical
members of Congress, said Monday that failure
to build the MX missile would deal a heavier
i blow to national security than any threat from a
foreign power.
In a speech en route to Washington from a
long weekend in the West, Reagan urged Con
gress against slowing down his plans to moder
nize U.S. strategic forces, build the nuclear
tipped MX and develop a small, single-warhead
missile.
“I believe with every fiber of my being that
these steps are essential to ensuring arms con
trol progress and our nation’s future safety and
security,” Reagan said.
“Only when the Soviets are convinced that
we mean business will arms control
agreements become reality. We are not
building missiles to fight a war, we are building
missiles to preserve the peace.”
Congress will vote within the next three
weeks whether to build the MX, a huge new in
tercontinental ballistic missile with 10
warheads. Production funds were deleted by
Congress last year, partially because of opposi
tion to Reagan’s proposal for basing the MX.
Under Reagan’s latest plan, following
recommendations by a White House advisory
commission, 100 of the missiles would be built
and installed in existing Minuteman silos near
Cheyenne, Wyo., at an estimated cost of $18
billion.
“If the Congress rejects these proposals it
will have dealt a blow to our national security
that no foreign power would ever have been
able to accomplish,” Reagan said Monday.
Seeking to ease the fears of some
legislators, Reagan promised a vigorous,
simultaneous pursuit of an arms agreement.
After a three-day stay at his ranch in the
Santa Ynez mountains of California, Reagan
flew to Ohio to help dedicate a library and
public affairs center on the campus of Ashland
College in honor of the late Rep. John
Ashbrook, a prominent Republican conser
vative who died last year while running for the
U.S. Senate.
Reagan praised Ashbrook as a pioneer "of
a new conservative movement in America" and
said the views he represented could be called
“the dominant force in American political and
intellectual life.”
Kell convicted in car-bombing
EUGENE (AP) - A jury
found Michael D. Kell guilty
late Monday of aggravated
murder in the car-bombing
death of Springfield
millworker Robert E. Harris.
The verdict was returned
about 11 p.m., after six and a
half hours of deliberation, in
the Lane County Circuit Court
of Judge Douglas Spencer.
After arguments closed,
Judge Spencer told jurors they
could find Kell innocent or
guilty of aggravated murder,
manslaughter, or criminally
negligent homicide.
Kell's death was "a cold
blooded assassination,” pro
secutor Brian Barnes said in
closing arguments Monday.
The Dec, 2 slaying was not
committed in a moment of
passion but was carefully
planned and carried out,
Barnes said.
Defense lawyer Mike
Phillips said Kell may have
been naive, but was not guilty
of participating in Harris’
death.
Kell, 20, was accused of ag
gravated murder as one of
three alleged accomplices in
the death of Harris.
Also facing aggravated
murder charges in the case are
Terry White, 32, and Barbara
Harris, 31, the victim’s wife.
Barnes told the jurors,
“Quite frankly the state views
this as a case of finding (Kell)
guilty of aggravated murder or
of nothing. It is an all-or
nothing case."
In concluding testimony
Monday, a surprise prosecu
tion witness, Lane County Jail
inmate Daniel J. Adams, said
Kell confessed taking part in
the murder “because of what
Mr. Harris did to his
daughter.”
The prosecution contended
that Harris’ sexual molesta
tion of his 17-year-old
daughter, for which he was
convicted of attempted first
degree rape, was a motive for
the slaying.
Adams testified Kell made
the confession while the two
were playing cards about two
weeks ago.
Adams said Kell admitted
being present when the bomb
was wired in Harris’ car and
said that he, White and Bar
bara Harris had visited the
Rosboro Lumber Co. parking
lot several hours before the
bomb was set to “make sure
the car was parked in the right
place."
