Air Photos Show Russians Are Dismantling Missile Bases Over Cuba Rapidly
U. S. Aid On Way To India
NEW DELHI (UPD—U.S. Ambassador John Kenneth Galbraith announced today the first of 10 American military jet transports carrying sorely needed infantry equipment for India’s embattled troops will arrive in Calcutta Saturday. Galbraith told newsmen the planes will be followed by more equipment coming in by sea and air, including mountain Howitzers from Turkey, to help India drive back invading Communist Chinese. *T hope no one will imagine they (the equipment) will work magic,” the ambassador cautioned, “Equipment is only part of the problem. The great task remains with the Indian army.” Galbraith was asked whether American military men would follow the arms to the front in compliance with a United States law requiring assurances arms reach the forces for which they are intended. “I would not think so immediately,” he said. “We’re not eager to have American military personnel distributed any wider over the world than at present.” He said legal requirements will be fulfilled, however. The airlift began today when a Boeing C 135 loaded with arms toc'k off from the Rhine-Main Air Base near Frankfurt, Germany. The Indian government is marshaling the nation under a decla-
Denies News Ma nipulated
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The Defense Department’s top information official denied today there was any distortion, deception or manipulation of the news during the Cuban crisis. Assistant Defense Secretary Arthur Sylvester made the denial in response to a recent protest by Lee Hills, president of the of the American Society of Newspaper Editors and executive editor of the Miami Herald and other Knight newspapers. At the same time, Rep. John E. Moss, D-Calif., chairman of a special House subcommittee on government information, condemned new information policies imposed by the Defense Department as "extremely disturbing developments.” Moss promised a congressional study. Sylvester told Hills that as a former newspaperman with 35 years experience he was “sensitive” to the public’s right to know about the government. “But as a public official,” he said, “I am also aware that in a time of extreme national peril there are other considerations in addition to the news business.” Sylvester commented: “Contrary to some of the editorials and columnists I have read, there has been no distortion, no deception and no manipulation of the news released by the Defense Department during the Cuban crisis. “We have, of course, protected national security and the lives of military personnel directly involved .in the current crisis. This is dur primary concern in releasing the news.” There was no agremeent, even among gove r n me n t officials, whether the objective ~br~the-uew--state and defense department rules was to “control” or suppress information or merely “coordinate’’ its release. The State Department disclosed that its officials have been instructed to report to the department’s Public Affairs Bureau each interview with a reporter, Including name and organization, date and subject matter. This followed issuance earlier this week of a similar regulation by the Defense Department.

ration of national emergency to drive out Communist Chinese troops in the north. In the first two weeks of the battle the nation has suffered at least 2,000 casualties and lost roughly 4,000 square miles of territory. The first two weeks of defeats by human waves of Chinese so shocked the country that even the Indian Communist party has backed Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru’s government to the hilt. The Communist leadership, after two days of agonizing discussion, issued a surprisingly strong statement Thursday night condemning “Chinese aggression,’’ supporting India’s purchase of foreign arms, defining the McMahon Line as the true Sino-Indian border and rejecting peace talks until the Chinese Communists pull back. INDIANA WEATHER Cloudy with a little rain likely tonight, probably ending Saturday. A little colder Saturday. Low tonight 34 to 42. High Saturday in the 40s. o Sunset today 5.42 p. m. Sunrise Saturday 7:16 a. m. Outlook for Sunday: Mostly cloudy with little temperature change. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.
A White House spokesman said "no comment” when asked early today whether similar rules were to be applied at the executive offices. Assistant Secretary of State Robert Manning said a (Chicago Sun-Times) dispatch implying that the regulations were designed to impose news flow restraints was “childish and erroneous.” He said the sole purpose was to give his Bureau of Public Affairs “a rudimentary record of the department’s relations with the press.” Ask Death Penalty For Alleged Killer BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (UPD— The prosecution asked for the death penalty today for Emmett O. Hashfield, 55, Boonville, accused of murder in the 1960 slayipg of 11-year-old Avril “Honey” Terry. In his final argument, Monroe County Prosecutor Fred Gregory described the Hashfield case as “harrowing fiction turned to fact. But it is not out of Edgar Allan Poe. It is real.” “If these circumstances do not justify the death penalty, give me a set of circumstances that does,” Gregory said. Avril’s dismembered body was found in the Ohio River on August 17, 1960, a day after she disappeared while on a shopping trip in Boonville. . ~ — — The case was expected to reach a Monroe Circuit Court jury late today. Judge Nat U. Hill decided to give between 75 and 100 instructions to the jury. Warrick County Prosecutor Fred Mock took over after Gregory’s summation and reconstructed the state's case for the jury. The defense will present its final argument this afternoon.
WASHINGTON (UPD - The United States said today that air photos taken over Cuba show that the Russians are dismantling their missile bases there, despite Fidel Castro's objections to allowing on-the-spot verification. The Defense Department said that “preliminary analysis of the aerial photographs collected in reconnaissance missions over Cuba yesterday provide clear evidence that work is proceeding on the dismantling of the missiles.” A Defense Department spokesman said the photos tafcen Thursday show such evidence of dismantling as the removal of missile erectors and associated launch equipment; the breaking up of cable conduits between control points and launching pads; ploughed and bulldozed areas at the missile sites and concrete pads apparently broken up by air hammers. The spokesman confined himself to the subject of dismantling. He would not say whether any additional ships have been intercepted since the blockade was resumed by the Navy nor whether air reconnaissance was being conducted again today. Ships on Station Asked whether the blockade is still in effect, the spokesman nodded and said “The ships are on station.” There was speculation here and at the United Nations that Castro might be seeking a face-sav-ing way out of the impasse he has created over verification. Castro spoke at length over Havana television Thursday night. Government officials studied accounts of the speech in .which the Cuban leader proclaimed flatly that his country “will not accept inspection.” Although Castro was denunciatory and accusatory toward the United States, officials saw several signs that he might come around, possibly under Soviet influence, to acceptance of a compromise arrangement. Among these signs was Castro’s reference to a proposal by Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev that the International Red Cross be invited to affirm the dismantling of Russian bases and shipment of the weapons back to the Soviet Union. Confirms Proposal Possible involvement of the International Red Cross had not been made public before. But U.S. officials confirmed that it had been among Khrushchev’s proposals, possibly brought by Vasily Kuznetsov, the deputy Soviet foreign minister who was sent to the United Nations earlier this week Khrushchev suggested the Red Cross as a verifying body if United Nations inspection was not acceptable. This apparently was relayed in a private communication to President Kennedy. In his published message to Kennedy last Sunday, however, the Soviet leader mentioned only the United Nations. “We are both ready to come to an agreement that representatives of the U.N. may verify the dismantling,” Khrushchev told Kennedy Sunday. Continue Argument On New Trial Move By an agreement of the parties, the argument on the plaintiff’s motion for a new trial has been continued and re-set, in the suit of the Decatur-Kocher Lumber Co. vs. Lawrence W. and Esther L. Ehrsam. The arguments are now set to be heard Wednesday, November 28, at 2 p.m. in the Adams circuit court. Judge Myles F. Parrish was to have ruled on the motion for a new trial this morning, but on agreement by the parties concerned, continued and re-set the action; Die local lumber company requested a judgment of $4,500 from the Ehrsams in the original suit, but was turned down in a ruling by Judge Parrish July 7 of this year. The motion for a new trial was filed a short time after the ruling. Robert S. Anderson represents the Ehrsams and the lumber company is represented by Custer and Smith.

Russian Rocket Is Hurled Toward Mars
MOSCOW (UPD — A one-ton Soviet rocket hurtled through space today on the first lap of a seven - month voyage to photograph the planet Mars, 48 million miles away. Moscow said the rocket’s instruments were “functioning normally.” (In London, the British Broadcasting Corp, quoted Soviet academician M. Sissakian, Presidium member of the Academy of Sciences, as saying Russia hopes to bring the “Mars I” back to earth.) A noon report by the official news agency Tass said that as of 6:33 a.m. (9:33 p.m. Thursday CST) the interplanetary probe was “functioning normally” and “in accordance with the set program.” At 10 a.m. (1 a.m. CST), Radio Moscow said Mars I had passed the 147,264-mile mark and that no further progress report would be given until Sunday night. The russians launched the unmanned probe Thursday night, saying it was the first Soviet shot toward Mars. They hope it will provide information on the “canals” and “icecaps” on mars that have fascinated mankind for ages. (U.S. Space Administrator James E. Webb said in Washington last September that the Soviets had failed or), two previous attempts in October, 1960, to send probes to Mars.) Tass said scientists had erected a 12-story cosmic radio communications antenna ■to keep tabs on the Mars I rocket. Eight mirrors each 4 feet in diameter form the working part of the antenna, it reported. There was no indication how close to Mars the probe is supposed to go. The “Mars I,” more than four times heavier than America’s Venus-bound Mariner-2, was launched from a heavy satellite in a “parking orbit” around the earth, according to the official news agency Tass. The United States has used “parking orbits” on its Ranger shots to the moon. In a special, post-midnight announcement of the launching, Moscow Radio said the probe carried an automatic interplanetary station weighing 1,965.7 pounds. Mariner-2 weighed 447 pounds.

Senator Capehart GOP Rally Speaker “I believe the American people are going to revolt against these things,” Indiana senator Homer ECapehart told a large crowd of Adams county Republicans at a rally held Thursday afternoon at the Decatur Youth and Community Center. Capehart made the statement as he assailed the handling of the Cuban situation by President John F. Kennedy at the Thursday rally. The Republican rally was held at I p.m., preceded by a noon luncheon where Capehart and Congressman E. Ross Adair were guests of the Adams county Republican central committee. The rally and luncheon was attended by a good-sized crowd of county Republicans, and state and local Republican candidates in the Ncvember 6 election. Mayor Introduced Decatur Mayor Donald Gage was introduced, and thanked Capehart and Adair for the “fine work they are doing” and each man was presented with a key to the city by the mayor. Candidates on the state and local level were introduced, as were the officers of the county Republican central committee. James Liechty, Republican city chairman of Berne, emceed the affair, and made the introductions. Liechty opened by saying, “We have looked forward to this day with great anticipation.” Liechty introduced Congressman Adair, who like Capehart, is a candidate for reelection. Adair spoke briefly on two subjects, medicare and the Republican position with respect to the farm problem. Name Misleading The congressman said the name medicare misleads the people into believing the program provides complete medical attention, which it does not. He explained that there are over 4 million senior | citizens in America who would not' be covered by the program, and many others who would not need medicare. . The program has a cost we do not know,” Adair said, “and it does not by any means do what it says.” He said the Republicans do not,, certainly, want to turn dowm any senior citizen who is in need, but that they want to handle such a program the right way, and the economic way. In relation to the farm problems, Adair said President Kennedy proposed a bill in the latest session of congress which poses the strictest possible control of the farm people, who would in the next few years, feel the pressure of the program, and find themselves “under the strictest government dictatorship.” “Worst Ever Saw” Pointing out that seniority was important in Congress, Adair introduced Capehart as the man who has “served us long and well.” A member of the senate foreign committee, Capehart immediately began his assault of the President’s handling of the- Cuban. (Continued on Page Three) J. Ward Calland Is Speaker At Rotary J. Ward Calland, retired Decatur industrialist, presented another interesting report on his last summer’s trip to Europe, particularly behind the Iron Curtain, at the weekly dinner meeting of the Decatur Rotary club Thursday evening at the Youth and Community Center. Calland had spoken previously to the chib on his impressions from his lengthy tour, and last night devoted most of the program to showing the slides of the many spots visited. These included Brussels, Moscow, collective farms in the southern part of the U.S.S.R., Warsaw, and East and West Berlin. Following the program, a board of review was held for Boy Scout troop 61, sponsored by the service club. Three of the members of the troop were advanced to Star Scouts during the review, supervised by H. P. Schmitt, Jr., chairman of the club’s youth committee: Frank Detter was chairman of the program and the speaker was introduced by David Moore, Rotary president.
