More than 2,000 students surged through the streets of downtown Toyko in the largest anti-bomb demonstration since the United States resumed testing in the at mosphere Tuesday. They clasehd repeatedly with 700 policemen. Most of the students were mem bers of the militant leftist Zen- gakuren Federation.

Bradbury Talks On Economy Of S. America Dr. Robert Bradbury, expert on Latin American economy at the University of Florida, said yester day that the Latin American Free Trade Association could possibly in the future encompass most of the Latin American states and to gether with The European Common Market provide an effective bul warks for the defense of the free world. ' Dr. Bradbury was speaking at the afternoon session of the South eastern Conference of Latin Amer ican Affairs which met yesterday. Jose Cardenas, chief of the divi sion of economy of the Inter American Development Bank spoke on the effects and purposes of the banks. He said that the bank . intended to accelerate the economy of Latin America by en abling countries to take out loans to promote industry. Since the bank's birth' a year and a half ago it has made 94 loans which total over $400 million, ac cording to Cardenas. The, bank has also undertaken the distribution of $300 million appropriated by Con gress for a Social Deveilopment Fund in Latin America. "recommendations with respect to improved ways of financing expen ditures required of nominees for the offices of President and Vice President." Heard is nationally recognized as an authority on the financing of political campaigns. He headed a seven-year study of this subject that was conducted by the Institute of Research and Social Science iiere from 1953 to 1960. From results of this study, Heard wrote "The Costs of Democracy," the oniy book-length treatment of campaign financing that has -been written since 1932. Following this directive of the President, Heard's committee made 12 recommendations as to ways of raising adequate campaign funds that would avoid placing candi dates in "moral hock" to large contributors. No Federal Aid One of the main areas explored by the committee was a system of financing national campaigns by the federal government, as Puerto Rico now does. The committee rejected this ap proach, Heard stated, because "in our society, the presumption is al ways .in favor of private voluntary action where this will suffice. "The Federal government should not subsidize campaigns iintil -lull efforts have been made by private organizations and these efforts have been proved .. inadequate. Neither political party . has -yet made a maximum, effort to raise money by widespread solicitation "The healthiest" way of financing campaigns is through large num bers of small -ajd"-rhedniTh:ized contributions"". : .....

Tad Szulc N. Y. Times Writer Sources Of Information The committee used three main sources of information for its re port: official reports of expend! tures required by the Federal gov ernment and some states, inter views with fund raisers and cam paign observers, and reports by congressional committees that have investigated past campaigns. "Although some official reports are useless," Heard stated, "be cause official limits on spending almost compel false reports, they are very useful if they are under stood. "Then, interviews with campaign workers and observers such as reporters and broadcasters help to establish the accuracy of the of ficial reports and also their defi ciencies. "Finally, the congressional re ports, such as the Gore committee report on the 1956 Presidential campaign, gave us more informa tion on the official . reports, and other information on campaign fi- Importance Of Money The major importance of money to a candidate, Heard said, is 'the "minimum essential amount" that every candidate must have to run a campaign. "Up to that point," he stated, "money is crucial. After that point is reached, money is seldom deci sive. Money only buys goods the important thing is how- the money is used.
