Vermont Senator George D. Aiken told a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing that newspaper ads urging support for the ABM program failed. He cited a spike in anti ABM letters received after adverts backing Nixon’s Safeguard appeared, noting a shift from about five to one against the ABM to the opposing view. He spoke while Casey's nomination to the General Advisory Committee of the Arms Control agency was under review.
