US. Behind Russia in LandFired Missiles But Is
 Ahead in Air-to-Ar Type, Says Gen. Doolittle

WASHINGTON, R-Lt. Gen. James Doolittle (ret.) testified yes terday that Russia certainly is ahead of US" in all land-fired missiles. He said the United States leads in air-to-air types.
 Doolittle, who heads the Ma tional Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, told the Senate Pre- paredness Subcommittee that this country fell behind the Soviets because it had no coordinated program until 1853.
 He said the Russians started missile developments in l946 and they have been working harder ali ii than we have.-
 Doolittle's testimony was in di- rect contradiction of contentious by former President Truman. Truman has said he organized a unified missile program while in the White House but that it was allowed to deteriorate under the Eisenhower Administration.
 Doolittle, a famed flier who led the first World War II air raid on Japan, was the first witness of the Senate subcommittee's second day of hearings on the US. missile situation.
 Doolittle said that unless the
 US. steps up its rate of progress

the Soviet Union will surpass this country in all phases of military effort.
 The one bright spot now, said Doolittle, is in American develop ment of air-to-air missiles. He said he does not believe the Rus sians have missile equal to the Falcon, which can be fired from a plane at another plane.
 Nor, he said, does he believe the Russians can match the US. nu- clear warhead air-to-air missile.
 Doolittle said one reason the Russians are ahead is that they have double incentive"
 Under their sYstem-and l don't recommend it-you either are rewarded for excellence or you are destroyed if you don't do a good job."
 He said Russia is sacrificing more than the United States, put ting about one-fourth of it's pro- duction into military hardware, while the US. is spending only about 81S percent of it's produc- ton for defense.
 In addition, he said Russia has "a definite, clear-cut objective Communication and domination of the world"
 "They have long range nexi- bility," he said. "They have a consistent plan to achieve, mili- tarily, industrially and education ally"
 Doolittle said this country must develop a sense of ur- gency-fo sacrifice more"
 Russia won't let us reduce military expenditures, balance the budget and cut taxes"
 Over and above all, Doolittle emphasized the need for main taining "a strong, modern mili- tary establishment to provide the strength that Russia respects, in- cluding modern submarines and anti-submarine missiles.

House Numbering Plan
|Readied for Damascus

that fifth digit may be added
at some future date to precede the
four digits. This will assure that
Damascus house numbers will
conform to a uniform numbering
system throughout the county.
Mail Deliveries
The U. S. Postoffice department
is expected to authorize house de-
hveries when the numbering sys-
tenn is completed, according to
Herbert S. Hyatt, Damascus post
master. Other projects which will
help meet Post office require
ments for house delivery are the
construction of walkways, now
underway, and installation of wa
ter connections, expected to be
completed next week.
At present, Damascus is served
by four rural mail routes from
Monrovia, Mt. Airy, Germantown
and Gaithersburg. Rural mail de-
liveries outside the two-mile ra-
dius to be given house numbers
will not be affected by the new
system.
1t is estimated there is a popu-
lation of 2,841 persons within a
two-mile radius of the postoffice,

Damascus will have a new
house numbering system next
month which will pave the way
for the Inauguration of home mail
delivery service for the first time
in the towns history.
The house numbering system,
being drafted by the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission, is expected to
be completed in the next four to
six weeks. Damascus is one of
the few unincorporated towns
still within the MNCPPC jurisdic-
ton.
The new numbering system will
extend in a one-mile radius from
the center of town at the outset
and later be extended to a two
mile radius. The MNCPPC plan
ming staff proposes a four digit
number system. Envisioning fu-
ture development of the area, the
commission advises homeowners

to establish that their client was
powerless to avert the tragedy
because the truck had bad brakes.
In the second case, the Millers
represented the estate of a man,
his wife and daughter who were
killed in an auto crash. A three
year-old son survived but OF
course, could not testify.
The Millers were able to win
their case, despite the lack of any
witnesses, with the aid of aerial
photographs. Pictures proved
that their clients could not have
been in certain place when their
car was struck by another. Their
victory won a substantial award
for their clients estate.
There are two more Millers,
but all agreed: five lawyers
would be OVERRIDING a good thing.
