doctor is in the laboratory where his work must evade detection by experts using sophiselectronic equipment ticated like a signal correlators and sound spectrographs Aides to US District Judge John Sirica in Washington have said he probably would hire such experts to check the tapes that former special prosecutor Archibald Cox subpoenaed before he was fired Several audio experts said only a handful of persons were skilled enough to doctor those tapes “And many of the few there are work for the government itself” one noted Hardest to detect would be the removal of entire conversations from the tape especially if the tape was voice actuated “It would be almost impossible to detect the removal of entire conversations by editing at the points where the recorder had stopped said experts at the 3M Co a major manufacturer of tape REARRANGED WORDS But “elimination or rearrangement of words of sentences within a conversation be detected could probably through the use of sophisticated electronic equipment” the 3M experts said Splicing interrupts the mag netic field on the tape and an oscilloscope can detect this Background noise may offer another clue to doctoring Periodic sounds like a clock ticking or an air coH'hhoner running might be a giveaway said Joel Tall a Mount Vernon NY manufacturer of tape splicing equipment and a former sound technician Even if the

AIR BAG SYSTEM SUPERIOR INSURANCE OFFICIAL SAYS CHICAGO (AP) — An executive of the Allstate Insurance Co says air bag safety systems for cars “are far superior to seat belts” and has urged the auto industry and government regulatory agencies to accept them as standard safety equipment W K Potter vice president of Allstate told a meeting of the National Safety Congress Wednesday that the question of air bag reliability is no longer an issue He said the air bag passenger safety system is “far superior to seat belts in terms of protec- tion and “The air bag will only become standard equipment if the equivocation on the part of safety agencies in and out of government and intrasigence on the part of segments of the automotive industry comes to a halt” He said air bag opponents who continue to
