18 Types Os Guided Missiles Now Bought Nation Mdving Into Robot Weapon Age WASHINGTON, (UP) — The defense department spotlighted its rapid movement into the age of robot weapons today with disclosure that IS types of guided missiles now are being purchased for the armed forces. An official document revealed a Wide range of automatic weapons development, from -email antiaircraft missiles to huge pilotless bombers able to carry atomic warheads. The document also confirmed that several new airplanes have been ordered, including the air force’s FlO5 supersonic fighterbomber and the navy’s sea-based F2Y fighter. Both are jet propelled and have delta or triangular wings. Dimensions of the army’s “honest John” rocket were made public. The rocket, which is not a guided missile, is 30 inches in diameter and can hurl an atomic warhead 15 to 20 miles. The weapons disclosures were made in a defense department directive outlining a new production reporting system. It is designed to cut red tape, save money and expose areas where schedules are not being met. The document showed that the air force has three pilotless bombers in production. The 861 Matador and 862 Snark are launched from the ground against ground targets. One Matador squadron now is en route to Europe.

Oxygen Is Supplied To Two-Headed Boy Ailing Infant Is Reported Better PETERSBURG, Ind. UP — The mother of a two-headed boy stood by with a supply of oxygen today and said her ailing infant “seems to be doing better now, but I don’t know how long it'll last.” Dr. J. W. Elbert said the weaker head, pale since birth three months ago, had breathing difficulty after developing a “circulatory disturbance” Monday. Elbert said “it is hard to say” if the physical setback is serious.” Elbert said the infant probably will not be returned to Riley hospital for children in Indi&napolis, whereat was born Dec. 12 and observed for several weeks. "They could do nothing more for him there than we can do here,” he said. The infant's parents were instructed in the administration of oxygen and an oxygen tank and masks were left in their hoinq.j Elbert said Tuesday that* he had to administer oxygen for a half hour to restore breathing in the head, christened Daniel Kaye -by the parents. The doctor also administered oxygen to the stronger side, named Donald Ray, as a precautionary measure. Elbert said oxygen had to be used several times since the first dosage to restore color to the child's head. “Apparently it's a circulatory disturbance,” Elbert said. “The child's color comes back after oxygen is given.” Daniel has noj eaten since the illness. Donald continued to eat enough formula, fruit juice and cereal to provide nutrition for both sides of the body. Elbert, said hg thought Danny Kaye would recover, but listed his condition as "fair.” Lake Superior, longest of the Great Lakes, is 350 miles long. The largest Moslem country in the world is Indonesia. More than 90 percent of its population of 83,000,000 is of that faith. Pakistan, next largest, has some 64,000,000 Moslems out of a population of nearly 78,000,000' against nearly 76,000,000 Moslems in Indonesia. The use of girls’ names for hurricanes was begun during World War 11. Storms in the Pacific were given girls’ names, taken from an alphabetical list, and At--tantirr hu rr 1 rahe s receiveW names from the phonetic alphabet. Girls’ names for all hurricanes came into general use in 1953, after a new phonetic, alphabet Vt'as adopted. Names of the hurricanes start with Alice, Barbara and Carol.

Gov. Craig Backs Toll Road Building Only Alternative Is Higher Taxes INDIANAPOLIS UP — Governor Craig said today if Indiana doesn't build toll roads it will have to levy new taxes and raise existing ones to pay for new highways. Craig, at his first news conference in weeks, made the statement when cothiftentlug on a legislative advisory commission subcommittee’s aetiot) Tuesday advocating caution in proceeding with plans for a north-south superhighway. "The urgency is that we need a north-south road.” he said. "The longer we put off a north-south toll road, the longer we will be without a road in an area thert so long as Indiana safety is concerned is desperate.” He said the state lacks enough highway money teJbaild new highways with public funds. "Either Indiana would have to enact a ton-weight tax on trucks or build toll roads,” Craig said. "We can’t go on as we are without killing people or putting a burden on the taxpayer.” Craig said he had no objections to gelling north-south toll road bonds next November, as proposed by the Indiana Toll Road Commission. Regarding a dispute over his right to have aides sign state documents, Craig characterized it as “a tempest in a very small teapot.” He said if he signed everything himself, he would have no time for anything else. Asked about his Republican party factional fight with Sens. William Jenner and Homber Uraig reminded newsmen he has been in Florida fishing and there is “no factionalism in fishing.” DENIES G.O.P. (Continued From Page ” nr * age. To say that the Republican bill was designed to help the rich people was — and here the President paused to pick his word carefully—an error. He declined to say whether he would veto the tax bill if it finally contained the Democratic proposal for increasing the personal income tax exemption. He said he would have to wait until he receives the bill and decides whether its good features outweigh its bad qualities. He said he found it somewhat curious that the Democrats who now are attempting to reduce the income of the government tvere stating firmly only a few months ago that there’ must be no increase in the national debt limit. Republicans were '.‘very optimistic” in the words of Speaker Joseph W. Martin Jr., about their chances of stopping the Democrats liUin, TJie main reason, said Martin, is the "very effective” tax speech President Eisenhower delivered Monday night. Democrats, however, refused to concede defeat. They fired back at the President Tuesday night in a nationwide radio-television attack on the GOP bill, charging it favors "the few” and offers “little or no relief” to 80 percent of the nation's taxpayers. They argued that the Republican tax program would give the greatest tax relief to six families in every thousond. These six families the Democrats said, are those who receive large incomes from dividends. Rayburn said in six years the GOP program would mean, the “top 20 percent of taxpayers will get six times as much tax relief as the lower 80 percent.” Mr. Eisenhower called the Democratic tax cut plan eleetion-year politics but Rayburn said it is “fair to all the taxpayers” and George said it would boost com sumer purchasing power. Cooper said the administration plan is "only the beginning” of special relief for "the few shareholders in America?” Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
