Educators Criticized
 For Over-DOmesticating By Adjustment Approach

DENVER, R-The president of Rutgers University said yesterday some educators are making ian attempt to domesticate all Amer ica" with their adjustment-to-life approach to schooling.
 Dr. Lewis Webster Jones, in speaking to the American Assn. of Land Grant Colleges and Uni versailles, criticized the idea that general education is learning to meet the problems of everyday living.
 'tI doubt that this is what the country needs" he said.
 America has not grown great, nor will she stay great, only by promoting happy domesticity and mere conformist civic virtues. We need well trained intelligence, ad- venturous minds and courageous innovators."

of Dimes turnout the territory, it was announced Monday from New York by Basil O'Connor, presi- dent of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.
 The March of Dimes will be held January 2-31 inclusive thru out Alaska and in every commu- nifty in the United States.
 Accepting the territory wide ap- pointment for the second consecu- tive year, Dr. Patty said:
 ''The widespread use of Salk vaccine during the past months has produced a dramatic drop in numbers of new cases of infantile paralysis. There is hope that when nearly everyone has completed the series of three vaccine shots polio may eventually become a rare disease.
 "A successful March of Dimes also means hope for further recov- cry and rehabilitation for children and adults already stricken with polio. Thus, the theme for the 1858 campaign will be Survival Is Not Enough, and the greatest share of the funds collected will continue to assist tens of thou sands of such patients with their hospital and medical expenses un- til they reach maximum recov- cry"

Three Boo Jets Prove Air Force Striking Strength

MANILA, REThree US. Air Force twin-jet B-66 bombers swept into the Philippines today after nonstop flights from the US. West Coast.
 The Air Force said the flight from George Air Force Base, Cal ifornia, made in just over IT hours, was part of an operation to show it can deliver tactical striking force to help nip brush fire wars anywhere in the world.
 A spokesman said the 5000 mile nonstop trip was a record for B-66s, which can carry atomic weapons. The flight refueled in the air off Hawaii.
 The B-66s were the vanguard of AT jet fighters and bombers being moved from various US. bases to Pacific points in an operation dubbed Mobile Zebra"
 Thirty one planes are coming to the Philippines and Is others will stop at Guam.
 An Air Force spokesman said the operation was designed to show a self contained tactical striking force can be moved any where to meet potential aggres- sion.
 The average speed was about 530 mph. The three-man light Douglas bomber is hated in the 6OO-7OO mph class.

Gen. Curtis LeMay Sets Record For Non-Refueling Jet Flight
 From Massachusetts to Argentina

ABOARD KC-135 REThe Boe- ing tanker transport which set a jet plane distance record to South America yesterday took off early today in quest of possible inter American speed record on it's re- turn.
 With Gen. Curtis LeMay at the controls and p other persons aboard, the four-engine aircraft left Ezeica Airport at 4:28 am. EST. Its probably destination is Washington National Airport.
 Accompanying the flight are three news correspondents: Vern Haugland, Associated Press; Brig. Gen. Robert Ginsburgh (ret) of the US. News and World Report; and Peter Bird Martin, of Time magazine.
 LeMay charted a nearly direct course for the approximately 5000 miles to Washington on his way home from quick visit to Argen- tina's National Aviation Week and a call on provisional President Pedro Aramburu.

Mir. Halverson Spots Sputnik
 For Third Day

For the third consecutive day MT. Olaf Halverson, teacher at Nome school and amateur astron- omer, has seen Sputnik, the Rus sian satellite, circling the earth.
 He reports his first observation was on Monday morning at 6:45 am. The second appearance was at 6:51 am. Tuesday. He said it came into view directly south and 45 degrees up from the horizon.
 This morning, in spite of cloudy weather, Sputnik made it's ap- pearance at 6:58 a.m., seven min utes later than the previous day. Its elevation this morning had in creased to 68 degrees.
 Several Nomeites reported sec ing the satellite this morning. Among them was Art Sandstrom of ACS, who messaged the fact to the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Mass.
 The observatory yesterday asked for sightings from armed forces personnel:
 Maurice Ke1liher reported that ''There was no doubt that it was Sputnik as it appeared larger than any planet ever saw in the sky here and it moved very fast"
 MT. Halverson said the satellite appears approximately seven min utes later each morning There fore in a very few days it will be obscured by the sunrise. At pres ent it is visible to the people of the far north such as Alaskans.
 Tomorrow morning, Thursday, it will perhaps cross directly over Nome, states Halverson, so ob- servers should look high up over head. Begin looking at $50 am. to 7:15 a.m.," suggests MT. Hal verson. My guess is that it will be about 7:05 but you cannot de- pend on fixed time"

q
 BUENOS AIRES, Argentina, tA5 Gen. Curtis E. LeMay flew q giant US. Air Force tanker here from Massachusetts yesterday, setting a world record in distance and speed for no-refueling non stop jet flight
 The Air Force vice chief of staff, an expert in long-range air l power, said he had flown the es- timated 6,35O miles in 13 hours, 31s minutes. His aides estimated the average speed for the swept wing KC-135 tanker at ASA miles per hour.
 The purpose of the mission was to demonstrate that the extremely long reach of United States air power is well beyond that of any other country.
 But the rumpled LeMay. former chief of the US. Strategic Air Force who himself held the tank er's controls for eight hours of the flight, said "it was just an other country flight"
 Smiling a bit wearily as he emerged from the plane at the l airport here, LeMay recalled he had visited Buenos Aires in 1888 as part of bomber group flying propeller-driven B-17s. 1 The KC-135, which provides a. global range to US. B-52 bomberS by refueling them in flight, left Westover Air Force Base, Massa- chusetts at 4:48 pm. EST Monday with the general and crew of IS. It touched down here at 5:51 a.m- EST.
 The KC-135, which costs be- tween two and three million dol lars, is being delivered by the Boeing Company in Seattle to the Air Force at the rate of five per month. The plane is in operation 1 at two air bases-Castle in Cali fornia and Loring in Maine. It is the Air Forces tanker yer sion of the Boeing TOT jet airliner which is expected to gi into com mercial service late in 1858 or early 1859.
 But it also is adaptable. the Air Force said, to carrying troops and cargo at jet speed and high alti- tude
 The trip did not set an official speed record, because the Inter national Aeronautical Federation recognizes only speed tests from one national capital to aother.

The Navy has a records depot

transfer it to GSA.
GSA said the transfer of the
Army records at Alexandria has
been requested by the Army and
GSA has indicated acceptance.
But arrangements. including
approval by the Budget Bureau,
will have to be completed.
GSA said the trend is to con-
solidate the noncurrent rec
ords, particularly those in ci-
william affairs, in GSA custody.
For example, the Army trans
ferred its civilian employ
ment records at st. Louis to
GSA, while retaining its mil
itary personnel records there.
A big center of civilian per-

Seek Science Pool
Nudged by Russia's recent
successes - space, Western
leaders hope to pool the free
worlds resources and brain
power.
In some cases, joint teams of
allied scientists and engineers
might work side by side on
basic research and weapons
development. In other in
stances, the United States
might work on one problem
and an ally on another-de-
pending on special skills-with
the intent of fitting the pieces
together at the end of the as
sembly line.
Finally, each ally might
proceed with its own projects
in the existing pattern. but
with the help of information
already developed in its part
ners' laboratories. Such eX-
change of data might save time
and thus speed new weapons
into availability for use.
Admiral Strauss sketched the
administration theory in a re-
cent letter to Mr.. Van Zandt;
while the total resources
of materials, money and knowl-
edge available in the free
world greatly exceed that of
our possible enemies, we can
diminish our advantage by
overlapping, duplicating and
wasting these advantages in
stead of utilizing them to the
greatest extent by a proper CO.

Six u.s.. Aides
Lose Appeal Of
Security Firings

District Court Judge Alexan-
der Holtzoff today refused to
reinstate six former Govern
ment employees who were fired
as security risks from their
jobs at the Army's Signal Gen.
ter at Fort Monmouth, N. j. in
1853 and 1854
However. the judge refused to
rule in the case of a seventh
employe involved and under the
terms Of an earlier Supreme
Court decision he must be re-
instated.
The six employees to whom
the judge refused reinstate-
ment are Aaron H. Coleman of
New York. Harold Ducore of
Long Island. N. Y. Carl Green
blum, of Red Bank, N. j., Ber-
nice Levine. of Lakewood. N. j.,
Melvin Morris of Little Silver,
N. j., and Lyman G. Yamins
of Newton Highlands. Mass.
Judge Holtzoff did not rule
in the case of Herman P.
Schoenwetter of Farmingdale,
N. j., because the Government
had admitted that Schoen-
wetter was not in a sensitive
position at the signal center
when he was fired.
Abe Krasch, attorney for the
seven employees at today's hear
ing before Judge Holtzoff had
claimed the seven were not
given a proper hearing by Army
security boards. He said the
Army refused to show her
clients all the reasons for the
firings, basing his charges on
the assumption the board had
received secret information
on which it based causes for
firing.
Mr.. Krasch also said his
clients were allowed to refute
the charges, but were not al
lowed to examine the material
upon which the charges were
based in a hearing before an
Army board.

Likely Proposals

but informed sources expect
Mr.. Eisenhower to ask au-
thority to:
l. Exchange with our Allies
secret data on design and
manufacture of nuclear bombs,
warheads and other atomic
weapons.
2. Supply enriched uranium

8. Exchange with United

Some observers also antici-
pate a request for permission tn
