The Author of this Advertisement, a citizen of the United States, born and raised in Ohio, is an nuclear reactor physicist who has researched full time since 1970 the catastrophic accident hazards of nuclear power plants, and is also an American who believes that the U.S. Government is to derive its rightful powers only from the Constitution - only from We the People - and so he has also studied rigorously the U.S. Constitution with respect to the major sources of unhappiness and danger in our lives, including wars all the time, pollution everywhere, and dangers of catastrophic nuclear accidents, to try to determine what is wrong with our present system of politics and government in America.

This citizen has concluded that the U.S. Government has totally subverted our Constitution in both domestic and foreign affairs:

(1)  The Congress, the Executive, and the Judiciary have together usurped the domestic-affairs powers of the States, by generally assuming unconstitutionally a full power to govern the internal, domestic affairs of the States (e.g., promotion of nuclear power plants and other favored industries and technologies, subsidizing jet ports, building super-highways, chartering banks to create money, hence perpetual inflation, and protection of favored corporations), thereby depriving the People of government close to them- i.e., their State Governments. With the exercise of boundless unconstitutional power throughout this century and part of the last, the U.S. Government has transformed the way of life in America into a heavy industrialized and militaristic way of life for the most part, with tragic social, economic, and environmental consequences which we all know about and experience.

(2) The Presidents of this century (most, if not all) have assumed unconstitutionally the power to make war and military alliances with other nations (the major most instances being World Wars 1 and 2, Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq); and the Congress in several instances has unconstitutionally delegated to the President the power to declare war and to make alliances - for instance, (a) the grant of unlimited power to the President to make nuclear war, including surprise, ``first strike'' attacks, by one line in the Atomic Energy Act, and (b) the United Nations Participation Act, which unconstitutionally grants the President the authority to decide the vote of the United States in the U.N. Security Council. Moreover, the Congress has assumed unconstitutionally the authority to conscript men into the regular armed Forces (e.g., the Army) and to send them out of the country to fight in the unconstitutional Wars. The consequences of presidential war-making have been wars all the time in this century and the loss of liberty suffered by practically every man (military conscription), except the ``exempted'' U.S. Government officials, and the loss of life and limb for the more unfortunate, plus the grave risks of nuclear war, and the risk of losing all of our liberties to the absolutely enormous military establishment that has been built up by the unconstitutional Government.⁽¹⁾

This citizen concludes that we the People do not govern. Instead, we are subjugated by a corporate oligarchy headed by the U.S. Government, backed up by an absolutely enormous standing military Force.⁽²⁾ In his view, we are, for most of us, forced, for the sake of having a job to procure basic necessities, to work on projects, produce things, and otherwise perform labor services for objects which stem not from our free will determinations as a society of the way of life we want.

As for the dangers of nuclear power plants, he concludes on the basis of his scientific research, including theoretical analyses and calculations, that we are exposed to extremely grave dangers of nuclear catastrophes - far worse than Chernobyl. For instance, most of the eastern United States could be rendered unfit for living due to radiation from the radioactive fallout following a cascade of nuclear eruptions at the Browns Ferry nuclear plant in Alabama - a possible chain reaction eruption of three reactors and their load of spent fuel storages. The U.S. Government has unconstitutionally effected the development of nuclear energy and has suppressed the facts of the dangers.

By this Advertisement, the author seeks support and a publisher for two treatises which he is preparing: one on the subject of the nuclear hazards, and the other on the Constitution. The latter will be a political disquisition and scientific analysis of the Constitution for its true meaning with respect to the division of powers between the States and the federal Government in domestic affairs, and between the President and the Congress in foreign affairs - the true meaning being that which was expressly intended by those who made the Constitution on behalf of the People and by the People themselves when they chose their delegates to the ratification conventions.

The treatise on the Constitution will suggest how we can re-establish the constitutional system of Government for America, which, this citizen believes, would enable us to work together effectively by means of our State government and legislatures, and by means of a U.S. Congress with limited and defined responsibilities of foreign affairs, to solve our major problems of foreign relations, to promote peace in the world, of the dangers of nuclear war, of pollution, of the wanting of a quality life (the question of the way of life we may desire), of energy supply, of risks of catastrophic nuclear accidents, and so on. The treatise will propose that we restore the powers of domestic affairs which the U.S. Government has usurped to the State Governments (government close to the People). We can always amend the Constitution to grant to the U.S. Government whatever specific powers we may wish to vest in the federal Government to deal with present problems, such as a qualified power to regulate industries to protect and clean up our environment. The principle to be restored is that the Government ought to get its powers from the consent of the People, not by usurpation.

We ought to review constitutional principles for guidance on how to bring about orderly and peacefully the needed reform of our present, unconstitutional system of government. The procedure for doing so is plainly suggested by the Constitution: -- The natural, honest talent in our country for administering government (legislators, executive officers, and judges) ought to concentrate in getting elected to the State legislatures, and otherwise appointed to offices in State Government. By means of our State Legislatures, we can work together as a society in each of our States to solve our domestic problems and to resolve the questions about which powers the federal Government ought to have, and ought not to have: to bring a stop to unconstitutional presidential war-making (one man deciding on war): to abolish the conscription of men into the regular armed Forces: to reduce greatly the size of the Military Establishment: and to re-establish the constitutional powers and duties of the Congress to cultivate happy, peaceful relations with other Nations. The State Legislatures can convene a Federal Constitutional Convention, if necessary, to effect control over the present runaway U.S. Government. In short, the planned treatise will seek to promote a movement for restoring constitutional Government in America.

A 30-page prospectus on the planned treatises is available, which focuses primarily on the nuclear hazards and the U.S. Government's unconstitutional assumptions of domestic affairs powers, titled Proposals for an Urgent Book on the Imminent Dangers of Catastrophic Accidents at Nuclear Power Plants and for Continuing Research and Major Undertakings to Promote the Public Safety in regard to the Nuclear Hazards.

A summary of my nuclear hazards analysis as of April 1990 is also available: The Risks of Catastrophic Accidents at Nuclear Power Plants. Also, this author refers to his book The Accident Hazards of Nuclear Power Plants, which was published by the University of Massachusetts Press, in 1976. In addition, he has written and distributed many special topic treatises on the nuclear hazards, which are also available. These include

- an analysis of the Three Mile Island Accident;

- a series of ten treatises the nuclear explosion hazards of fast breeder reactors, including atomic bomb size explosion potentials;

- various treatises on the explosion hazards of conventional nuclear power plants (pressurized water reactors and boiling water reactors);

- an analysis of the potential harmful consequences of the release of radioactive materials into the Earth's atmosphere by catastrophic nuclear accidents;

- an analysis of the accident hazards of spent fuel rod storages at nuclear power plants - the potentials for fiery eruption of the spent fuel material due to an adjacent reactor explosion, and further, many-fold more release of radioactive material into the Earth's atmosphere; an analysis of the Chernobyl accident; and

- a treatise on the nuclear explosion hazards of the British gas cooled reactors; and a mathematical analysis of the cancer mortality statistics of the Japanese Atomic Bomb Survivors to evaluate the ``risk'' of cancer disease caused by exposure to nuclear radiation.

He finds by his analysis of the A-bomb survivors statistics that the risk of cancer death per unit dose of radiation is 50 times what the Governments have assumed, and that the published papers of the officially sponsored scientific analyses of the cancer mortality statistics of A-bomb survivors and radiation workers, which give an optimistic assessment of the cancer risk of radiation (claiming no statistical evidence of cancer effect at so-called low dose), do not derive nor even describe the mathematical theories which were used to analyze these statistics, hence do not prove their claims of no cancer effect.

He has recently completed a thorough scientific research into the biological/health effects of nuclear radiation, and is preparing a full report. The main finding of this research is that nuclear radiation is far more damaging to health (and to our genes, hence our offspring) than what the Public has been told by the U.S. Government-sponsored ``radiation biology'' and ``radiation protection'' establishment.⁽³⁾ It is, therefore, absolutely urgent that we eliminate the grave accident dangers of nuclear power plants, and toward this end, to attend to the federal Government unconstitutional assumptions of authority to promote and license nuclear power plants - assumptions and abuses of power which deprive the States of their rightful constitutional power to regulate industries for the protection of the health and safety of their respective citizens.

On the subject of the Constitution, the Author has written a number of papers and treatises which are also available, including recently a treatise on the war-making power with reference to the Iraq War, titled Analysis of the Constitution with respect to the Authority to make War and Alliances, and the Employment of Force against Iraq by Presidential Acts, dated January 11, 1991, plus an Addendum dated January 15th on the Use-of-Force Authorization Resolution passed the Congress on January 12th. The treatise concludes that the President's acts in making this war, beginning with the President's order of August 16, 1990 to blockade Iraq, which was an employment of force against Iraq, hence an act of war, without a prior declaration of war by the Congress, and the later resolution of the Congress, are unconstitutional! (The congressional resolution is, in the Author's judgment, an unconstitutional grant to the President of the power to make war.) This treatise was distributed to the President and his legal advisors, to the Secretaries of Defense and States and their legal advisors, and to several members of Congress, before the attacks on Iraq territory. A supplement was issued in April 1991 and sent to one of the President's legal counsellors and to the Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. The supplement petitions the Congress to fully investigate everything about the Iraq War, including the unconstitutionality of the series of Presidential acts to make the war and the use-of-force authorization resolution of the Congress.⁽⁴⁾

The reader may also consult Chapter 13 of the author's book Accident Hazards - chapter titled "Who Should Decide?" This chapter presents his original analysis of the Constitution with respect to the U.S. Government's promotion of nuclear energy, which, in the author's view, gives a short proof that the U.S. Atomic Energy Act, and the Federal Government's civilian nuclear program under it, is unconstitutional. (The chapter was recently re-printed in Threefold Review (last Winter issue). Finally, a 41-page general analysis of the Constitution with respect to domestic and foreign affairs is also available. It includes a commentary on the benefits of following the constitutional principles and suggestions of how we can effectively restore constitutional government and work to obtain our safety and happiness with respect to foreign affairs, including nuclear war dangers, and with respect to our domestic affairs problems, such as pollution and economic and social disrepair, as well as the world (global) problems that affect us. It is titled: Unconstitutional Government - Sketch of a Constitutional Analysis with respect to Domestic and Foreign Affairs.

Those who are interested in learning more details, in supporting this work, including making arrangements for publication of the planned treatises, and possibly collaborations, are encouraged to correspond with this Author to discuss matters of mutual interests.

The author of this Advertisement has a doctorate in nuclear reactor physics and engineering (Ohio State University, 1972); and before that he was a reactor engineer in the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission with junior level responsibility for the reactor part of the first civilian nuclear power plant in the United States (the Shippingport Pressurized Water Reactor), among other reactor engineering experience.⁽⁵⁾

As said at the outset, this Author has studied constitutional law.  He believes that Government in America derives its legal powers from the consent of the People, and, that therefore, we individual citizens ought to be experts in our Constitution, in order to recognize when violations of the Constitution by Government occur, and the dangerous and harmful consequences of the infractions. Knowing the principles of the Constitution, and the reasons for the various provisions in the Constitution, we can better determine the root causes of our various looming problems and hard experiences - the sources of the failures of our present system of government to achieve public safety and peace, and to promote the happiness of the People. By correcting the infractions of the Constitution, we can make the Government conduct its operations according to the plan which We the People make for working our way to safety and happiness - that plan being the Constitution of each State and the Constitution of the United States.

This Author believes, therefore, that it is vitally important for our safety and happiness that we study the Constitution and make a full review of the operations of the U.S. Government with respect to the Constitution, and that we recur to the principles of the Constitution. By restoring or establishing Constitutional Government, we can effectively cooperate and mutually assist each other, each contributing with our individual skills, to make that way of life which we want for our happiness and safety.

2. The chief advocates of the Constitution during the 1787-1788 debates on Ratification (The Federalist) argued that the Constitution, if adopted, would ensure against an extensive standing army in time of peace; for no power was granted to maintain an Army, only the power to support ``Armies,'' subject to money appropriations lasting no more than two years - the constitutional provision for assuring the People that Congress would have no power to maintain - i.e., to ``keep up'' - an extensive Army in time of peace.

3. Since this Advertisement was originally written, the author has undertaken and completed a full scientific investigation of the Three Mile Island nuclear accident (March 28, 1979), and is preparing a final report to submit to the U.S. District Court in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in connection with the present legal proceedings concerning citizen complaints of cancer illness from radiation exposure from the accident. This report will include a section giving his analysis of the biological/health effects of nuclear radiation.

Also, he has found that there were far more release of radioactivity into the atmosphere during the Three Mile Island accident, hence far more radiation doses suffered by members of the Public in the environs of the TMI plant, than what has been official estimated/reported to the Public.  In this regard, he has found that the official, U.S. Government investigations of the TMI accident misrepresented the graph recordings of the radiation monitoring instruments in the plant in reporting on estimates of the amount of radioactivity released into the atmosphere and the consequent radiation ``doses'' to which the public was exposed.  He has issued so far (submittals to the U.S. District Court) a full treatise on the subject of releases of radioactivity into the atmosphere in the TMI accident, plus two extensive affidavits which critically evaluate the official analyses of the accident.  His present report in preparation will treat the matter of the degree of the exposure to radiation suffered by members of the Public in the TMI environs during the accident.

4. In 1970 he authored a lead article in the Ohio State Law Journal, ``Treaty-Making and the President's Obligation to Seek the Advice and Consent of the Senate with Special Reference to the Vietnam Peace Negotiations''.

5. He served on the staff of Vice Admiral Hyman G. Rickover, Division of Naval Reactors, U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, Washington, D.C., 1963-1967.  The Shippingport reactor is located at Shippingport, Pennsylvania, on the Ohio River, near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  It was a ``civilian'' power reactor which was developed using naval reactor technology.  The Division of Naval Reactors was responsible for the development of the Shippingport reactor.
