Army Map Service scientists
said today new studies indicate
the earth's circumference is about
q half mile smaller than previ-
ously believed.
Bernard Chovitz. one of them,
said the new findings would help
in tracking the satellites the
United States plans to begin
launching into space sometime
next year.
He also said a current project
aimed at making the first &C
curate measurement Of the dis
lance between Western and
Eastern Hemisphere lands, across
the Atlantic, concelvably could
yield information that would aid
in accurately firing an inter-
continental missile.
In a report prepared for the
annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Geophysical Union, the map
service scientists said the equa-
torial radius Of the earth-the
distance from its center to the
equator-is 6,975.336 yards or
140 yards less than the figure
generally accepted since 1909.
Mr.. Chovitz, a map service
mathematician, told a newsman
the new computation, applied to
the circumference of the earth
at the equator, would make the
world 24,902 miles around at its
widest point. This is about a
half mile smaller than the old
measurement.
The distance around the earth

actually. the overall circum-
ference over the Poles is about
40 miles smaller than around
the equator because the earth is
flattened at the Poles.)
Mr.. Chovitz SAID the new esti-
mate is based on continuous
measurements of arcs-many
thousands of miles long-ranging
from Alaska to Chile in the
Western Hemisphere, and from
Finland to South Africa in the

(Continued from Page One) damaged or destroyed aircraft, an increase of nearly 20 percent over 1854, the Pentagon reported. The difference was attributed largely to the higher cost of new aircraft.
 The report noted that the age of airmen has a lot to do with the rate of airplane accidents. A chart showed that pilots "A years or under have an accident rate near ly five times that of flyers 40 and older.
 The report noted a downward trend in the accident rate for government owned motor vehi- cles, but an increase in the rate uf accidents and fatalities of ser vicemen involved in private mo- tor vehicle crashes, most of them off military bases.

Stevenson Opens Campaign Swing In Western States
tBY THE ASSOCIATED PRzss'

Adlai E. Stevenson opened a western campaign swing yester- day with a charge that the Eisen- hover Administration has permit ted public lands to ''be invaded by and given away to selfish pri- vate interests"
 Tn e Democratic presidential nominees opening blast came in a speech prepared for delivery in Great Falls, Mont. This was his first stop in flying, four-day tour of Montana, Idaho, Washing ton, Oregon and California. The five states own total of 55 cleo toral votes-all of which went to Eisenhower in 1852.
 Stevenson said the administra- tion has "scrapped" long-stand ing policy in which he said both parties cooperated in conserving the nations parks and forests.
 From his Libertyville, Ill, farm home Monday, Stevenson released the third in a series of major affirmations' he would support if elected President. The latest one called for a federally aided health program. Goals included:
 A health insurance program for all, regardless of ability to pay; more funds for medical research; speeded up medical training program; and construction of more hospitals.
 Stevenson said his proposals are not specialized medicine" and administration of the program would rest with the states" The principle is that no American should be deprived of good medi- cal care for lack of funds, he said, but those who can pay all or part of the expense should do so.

the waterway and that he could not accept it. He said politics would appear in any internation- al body organized to run the Suez Canal.
 Dulles stood firmly behind British-French proposal which called for negotiations on the oa- sis of the London proposals for international control of the canal. He said he would vote for the British French plan.
 On the basic principle of guar antees against use of the canal as an instrument of national policy, the secretary of state said:
 "If Egypt accepts that simple and rudimentary principle of jus tice, then I believe that the sub sidiary problems can be resolved. If that problem is repudiated, then it is difficult to foresee useful role for negotiating body.
 Indeed, under those conditions it is difficult to foresee any set clement in accordance with the principles of justice and of inter national law"
 Dulles spoke as the ll-nation Council wound up its opening round of policy statements and prepared to go into closed-door sessions for detailed discussions.

Eisenhower Says Demos Have Twisted the Facts

Continued from Page One) prospects unjustified by world realities"
 As an instance of what he called concealment and twisting of facts, Eisenhower said, We find a whole series of curious statements falsely implying that this administration cares nothing for the man they rather patroniz- ingly call little fellow"
 This amounts to the charge your government has be- trayed your trust" Eisenhower continued. Such talk is political responsibility at its worst"
 Eiseshower also said the cost of living "has risen less than three percent under this administra@ tion" and almost 50 percent" during the preceding Truman Ad- ministration.

 Canal Can Be Used for National Policy

UNITED NATIONS, NY, R- Secretary of State Dulles said yesterday there is little chance of settling the Suez problem so long as it is possible for any nation to use the vital waterway as an in- strument of its national policy.
 Dulles told the JUN. Security Council this is the heart of the problem and the first step should be set up to ensure against any such action.
 He did not flatly reject pro- posal made by Egypt Monday for the establishment of a JUN. nego- tiating body to work out system of cooperation for the operation of the canal. Dulles called Egypt's move constructive" but he indi- cated it did not go far enough.
