Soviet Rocket Os Propaganda Value To Reds LONDON (UPD — Experts in Western Europe said today Russia’s rocket to the moon represented a great propaganda triumph of limited scientific value. Leading figures in Asia, where the Communists have conquered two nations and partitioned one in the past 10 years and are now attacking two more, acknowledged the Soviet achievement with marked coolness. Scientists in Britain were warm in their praise of the guidance system which enabled the rocket to hit a bulls-eye only 2,160 miles across at a range of about 230,000 miles. Prof. A.C.B. Lovell, whose “radio telescope” at Jodrell Bank received the Russian rocket’s signals up to the last moment, hailed it as a “brilliant demonstration of the advanced state of Russian science and technology.” Lovell expressed some curiosity about the exact means used to guide the rocket. He Said the signals convinced his staff that it did not use late - firing retrorockets of the type carried by similar U.S. space probes. These rockets correct the course of the missile in its last stage of flight. “One can only assume that the Russians managed to guide the rocket in the middle course, earlier in its flight . . .” he said. “If it was guided in mid-course, this is something completely new. No one has even conceived of it as a possibility in this'sort of experiment.” He noted that satellites like America’s “Paddlewheel” are probably of more scientific value than the Russian rocket, even though they are less impressive as a “demonstration of extraordinarily advanced technology.” There was general agreement that the rocket feat was a great boost for Soviet propaganda, coming as it did less than two days before Premier Nikita Khrushchev's arrival in the United States. West German diplomats said the timing of the Russian rocketlaunching suggested that “Khrushchev’s visit was meant to be “just another full-blast propaganda effort” rather than the occasion for serious negotiation on East-Wdst differences. Indian Premier Jawaharlal Nehru, whose country’s borders are threatened by the Communists, raised the question of Russia’s intentions toward the moon. “A great achievement . . . great news, no doubt,” Nehru said. "I hope the moon will survive.”
2,000 Moldmakers Go Out On Strike PITTSBURGH (UPD — Some 2,000 skilled moldmakers were idle today following the breakdown of negotiations Sunday between the American Flint Glass Workers Union and the Glass Container Manufacturing Institute. Industry officials today were taking a wait-and-see attitude on whether an additional 48,000 union workers in rerated glass industries would follow suit. The strike, which began at noon Sunday, was the result of a stalemate at talks here that involved 26 "jar" producing firms throughout the nation. Neither side agreed to back down from previous contract proposals which centered chiefly around wages and arbitration issues. A last-minute effort to head off the strike was made Sunday morning by Federal Mediator William Rose when he brought both sides together, but it failed. Rose then recessed the negotiations for a “cooling-off’ period. The mediator said the firms refused to budge from their 3 per cent wage hike offer and the union bargainers stuck with their 5 per cent demand. The union originally had sought a 7 per cent increase. The moldmakers averaged $2.97 an hour before the strike. Rose said- the - 'firms wanted an arbitration clause in a new pact but that the union did not want arbitration. Two-Car Accident Near Berne Today A two-car accident occurred this morning near Berne, causing about S4OO in damages to both cars but injuring no one.

The Schoemaker vehicle tried to avoid the collision, but the cars sideswiped, causing S2OO damages to each. The Brown car was going east on the road and the Schoemaker car was travelling west. The accident occurred at 6:45 a.m. Bicycle Is Stolen Saturday Afternoon The city police received a stolen bicycle complaint Sunday afternoon from Mike Worthman, of route 3, Decatur, who said that his blue Columbia bike, without fenders. was stolen from Court street Saturday afternoon.
