Air Force Starts New $1.5 Billion Space Program

WASHINGTON UPI— The Air Force embarked on a SI.5 billion program today to develop America's first manned military spacecraft, with orbital flights to start in little more than three years. Officials said contracts will be negotiated with industry “as soon as possible" to produce the Manned Arbiting Laboratories MOLL authorized b^. President Johnson Wednesday after two years of Pentagon study. Some of the five MOLs now planned-possibly the first one —will be blasted into nearpolar orbits from Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif., enabling the two-man vrevvs to observe the etire earth every 24 hours during month-long stays in space. Thus, they will become the

first U.S. manned spacecraft to overfly the Soviet Union, though Russian cosmonauts have traveled in orbits that cross the United States. The purpose of the military MOL. Johnson said, is to gather “new knowledge about what man is able to do in space and to “relate that ability to the defense of the nation.” The President repeated America's intention not to put mass destruction weapons in space, stating that “the heavens belong to all the people.” A defense official said that at this point in history it would not make “any kind of sense” to put such weapons in space anyway. Rockets aimed at an enemy on earth,, for example, can be shot much more accurately from earth.

Pilots Escape la X19 Test Crash PAMONA, N. J. UPI — The Curtiss-Wright J19, an experimental vertical take-off and landing plane, crashed and burned in a swamp Wednesday during a test flight at the National Aviation Facilities experimental center. Both pilots ejected safely from the plane. It plummeted to earth while preparing to make a vertical landing at low 1 speed. Admitted to Shore Memorial Hospital in Somers Point, N.J., were pilots Bernard Hughes of Brigantine, a civilian, and Air Force Capt. James Ryan, attached to Wright-Paterson Air

Force Base, Dayton, Ohio. Hospital officials said the men were undergoing observativn. They suffered cuts and

bruises.

Edward Shoop, public information officer at the center, said Hughes and Ryan were preparing to land the craft when “they got some sort of trouble, either in the engine or the propeller.”

Yank Is Freed By Viet Cong SAIGON UPI—An American | who deliberately let himself fall i into the hands of the Viet Cong has been freed after four | months imprisonment, a spokesiman for the U.S. Embassy said

today.

Donald Dawson, 28, of Costa Mesa, Calif., ventured into Viet Cong territory north of Saigon on April 23 in search of his older brother whose plane had crashed in the jungle. Donald Dawson and his French-Vietnamese interpreter, Paulette Emberger, walked into a government-controlled hamlet last Tuesday and took a bus to the U.S. military base at Bien Hoa Wednesday morning. Military sources said Dawson was being de-briefed by American intelligence officers today at Bien Hoa, 15 miles northeast of Saigon. The sources said Dawson reported he and Miss Emberger were held for four months in a Viet Cong prison camp which also contained three other

Americans. Military sources said the Viet Cong told Dawson his brother was killed in the plane crash.

STREETCAR TOUR NEW YORK (UPI) — A special Tourist Streetcar takes the visitor to Copenhagen on a 100minute tour through the city for 5 Danish Kroner (about 75 cents), says the Danish National Travel Office.

Tires are about to be used on restaurants as well as automobiles. A revolving restaurant that turns on 75 U. S. Royal passenger car tires is being built on top of a new office building in Memphis, Tenn. *‘We believe this is the only restaurant in existence that will ride on automobile tires.” said builder Kemmons Wilson, president of Kemmons Wilson Construction Co. of Memphis. “Our engineers decided on passenger tires instead of solid rubber rollers because tires ride smoother and will cushion any rough spots in the floor.” One of the tires, driven by a % horsepower electric engine, will turn the restaurant floor. Two other U. S. Royals, at the side of the revolving unit, will provide stability. The restaurant will revolve once every 80 minutes, turning a mile every 24 hours. At that leisurely pace the tires should last almost until the middle of the 21st century — unless they fall victim to old age first. Crawl space under the floor provide* access to the tires which are mounted on regular- ear wheels.

cessor, the late Adlai E. Stevenson. The major reshuffle, coming at a crucial time in the Viet Nam war, will send to New York, among others, Rep. James Roosevelt, D-Calif., and Dr. James M. Nabrit Jr., a prominent Negro educator. The new appointments, announced by President Johnson at his news conference Wednesay, were seen as evidence of Goldbrg’s firm, take - charge attitude toward the job he assumed less than a month ago after Stevenson’s death of a heart attack in London. Career diplomat Charles W. Yost, 58, will replace Francis T. P. Plimpton, 64, as Goldberg’s principal deputy. Plimp-

ton, who waa acting head of the U. S. delegation until Goldberg took over, is returning to private law practice but may be available for consultative work with the administration, offi- ^ cials said. Mrs. Eugenie Anderson, 56, of Red Wing, Minn., former U. S. ambassador to Denmark and onetime U. S. minister to Communist Bulgaria, will succeed Mrs. Marietta Tree, 48, as America's representative on the U. N. trusteeship council. Goldberg was said to have recommended his choices after conferences with Secretary of State Dean Rusk, who with the President has been in almost dally consultation with the former Supreme Court justice.

Red, white, and blue green-stuff

Uncle Sam has a couple of plans to make your money as easy to save as it is to spend. There’s the Payroll Savings Plan where you work. And the Bond-a-Month Plan where you bank. Easy as pie, but the best part of the idea is that there’s a bigger cut of the pie for you, the longer you hold onto your Bonds. When they mature, you get $4 back for every $3 you invest. There’s no state or local income tax on Series E Savings Bonds. And you may defer payment of the federal income tax until your Bonds are cashed. While your bankroll grows, freedom throughout the world grows a bit, too. And your Bonds are helping this cause more than a little.

Get in the U. S. Savings Bonds habit, and before you know it, you’ll have a pocketful of red, white and blue green-stuff that’ll come in mighty handy just when you need it most.
