d the Assoelated Preas

Lloyd Klenert quit as the
secretary-treaSurer Of the
United Textile Workers yester-
day as the union moved to avoid
q possible custer by the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor and
Congress Of Industrial Organ
izations on charges Of corrup-
ton.
There were indications the
AFL-CIO might accept the
changes in the unions leader
ship and rely on Anthony
Valente. president. to run the
union on 3 reform basis. The
union earlier had adopted
labor's code Of ethical practices.
The executive board OF the
40,00O-member union accepted
Klenert's resignation and
named Francis K. Schaufenbel
Of Lawrence, Mass. to replace
him. Mr.. Schaufenbel has
been IN charge of the unions
wooden and worsted division in
New England for more than q
decade.
Klenert. along with Valente
and Joseph Jacobs, the unions
general counsel and Southern
director, had been criticized for
the alleged misuse Of union
funds in hearings Of the Senate
Select Committee investigating
labor racketeering.
Jacobs Retained as Counsel
In another change today, Mr..
Jacobs was relieved Of his dRb-
ties as Southern director but
retained Is the unions general
counsel.
In the Senate hearings, there
was testimony that Klenert and
Valente had used union funds
to buy expensive homes in
Washington suburbs. Both de-
MED improper use Of the
unions money and said they
had repaid everything borrowed
from the union. Jacobs was ae-
cused Of profting from autos
leased to the union.
Klenert told newsmen he had
submitted his resignation vol
unfairly because he wanted TO
safeguard the unions future.
It was reported that the ALL
Go had insisted Klenert would
have to 90 II the union was to
avoid suspension from the fed
Grafton.
The union has been sum-
moned before the AFL-CIO ex-
ecutive council here next Fri-
day TO answer to the charges Of
corruption.
Bakers May Escape.
Meanwhile, 1t was reported
that the Bakery Workers Union
might also escape q threatened
suspension. but an custer is
almost cretain for the Team
sters union.
Like the textile workers,
leaders Of the Transfers and
bakery Workers have been
charged by the AFL-CIo with
corruption based on the Senate
committees disclosures. The
Bakery Workers have initiated
some reforms, while the Team
sters have stood pat.

Vanguard Rocket Test
B, the Aasooiated PREM

~ the Associated Preas
A test Of the Nays VAN
guard rocket--the ballistic mis-
sile planned TO propel an
American satellite into space
apparently was put on twice
yesterday.
The scheduled firing at Cape
Canaveral. Fla, was to have
been a test Of the Vanguard's
first-stage engine. There was
no explanation Of why the test
wasn't held.
Meanwhile. the Soviet Unions
earth satellite began its third
week of circling the earth at
about $1,000 miles an hour.
New sightings Of the satellite
were reported In Wisconsin.
Squat Sweeps Area
Newsmen watching the Flor
ida test area through binocu-
lars said towers and cranes
twice were moved UP to the
missile then withdrawn-the
second time when O rain squat
swept the area.
There was no word when the
Vanguard test might be re-
scheduled. Two preliminary
tests Of Vanguard rocket stages,
held previously. have been de-
scribed ofiicially as successful.
A full three-stage test is
scheduled for December. the
month United States scientists
are expected to fire the Ma
tons first small test satellite.
The first fully Instrumental
satellite is scheduled to be fred
into its orbit next March.
Eight observers Of the Nil
waukee astronomical society
said they sighted the satellite.
Edward A. Halbach, director
Of the society's observatory in
the town Of New Berlin. said
the sightings appeared to be
almost certain.
He said the group also saw
the rocket section. which Is
the earth ahead Of the
satellite at q somewhat lower
altitude.
Oficials Of the Smithsonian
Astrophysical Observatory ut
Cambridge, Mass. say most Of
the sightings 90 far have been
Of the rocket rather than the
satellite.
But DR.. Armand Spitz said
volunteer observers were be-
ing asked to make every effort
TO sight the satellite.

Canadian Navy
Plans 10 Attack
|Mystery.Subs

VICTORIA. B. c.. oct. 10
up. - Canada's Navy has
threatened to depth-bomb un-
identified submarines on Cana
da's west coast If they do not
surface Immediately when
ordered to do so.
Rear Admiral H. s. Rayner.
head Of the Canadian Nays
Pacific Coast Command said
yesterday unidentified subs
have been operating on the
coast in recent months "famil-
iarizing themselves with the
shoreline and coastal waters"
THE navy is very much on
the alert and will act inn
mediately II we receive any
more reports Of unidentified
subs," he said in an interview.
Report Refueling
Admiral Rayner's statement
came after q Vancouver news
paper, the Province. reported
that the Soviet Freighter Alex
ander Nevsky refueled two Rus
sian submarines in the North
Pacific less than 10 days ago.
The Province said its in
formation came from a reliable
waterfront source" not identi-
fed further.
The Nevsky. one Of is Soviet
freighters expected in Van
couver during me fall and
winter to pick up 400 900 tons
of wheat, left that port Oc-
tober 7.
The province said the refuel-
ing rendezvous several days
later was discovered by planes
from Alaskan bases.
"Her (the Nevesky's) route
through the North Pacific took
her through the same area
where planes soon after spotted
two Soviet submarines on the
surface" the article said. las
the aircraft approached, the
submarines submerged but radio
conversations between the two
vessels were monitored while
they were under water"
Attaches Visit Ship
The Province said high on
Gals Of the Soviet embassy in
Ottawa visited the Nevesky
while she was berthed at Van
couver. They were identified
as Alexander Lebatchev, COM
mercial attache: Fedor Ru-
maiantson. air atache. and Alex
Zenichev, assistant military at.
tache.
The Province article con-
tinued:
When the well-kept Alex
ander Nevsky arrived here .
To-day deck hose showed traces
Of fuel oil. Oily coveralls were
on deck when she reached
Vancouver she had more fuel
aboard than her own needs for
the Vancouver-Siberia return
(about 1900 tonD the
Nevsky had been booked to
take on 10. 900 tons Of wheat in
Vancouver but only loaded 5000
tons"
Admiral Rayner said the
Canadian Navy had failed to
sight any strange submarines
recently despite an intense
search, but had confirmed the
sighting Of two Soviet subs on
the Queen Charlotte Islands
last June.
He said If any unidentified
subs are found in the future I'VE
will fire signal charges ordering
them to the surface for identi-
flcation, and If they don't come
up We will drop depth charges
on them"

Planes Not Junk Yet

swipe at the assertion by Mr..

Party chief, that the bomber

IF Mr.. Krushchev wants to
whistle In the dark with his
wishful thinking that our Stra-
tegic Air Commands bombers
may a. well be burned for all
the good they will do. that is
his privilege" the admiral said.
But he knows better"
Admiral Sides said II hold
no brief for the enthusiastic
missileer" who says the last
days Of the manned airplane
are Just around the corner" He
said the missile would soon
take over some tasks Of the
warplane but that IL may never
replace it completely. He men
toned specifically that bomb
ers carrying relatively long
range air-to-surface missiles
should prolong by several
years the period when manned
bombers VIII be effective"

Admiral Says Red ICBM
May Have Been Satellite
~ Il. EDGAR PRINA

vice Admiral John II. Sides,
the pentagon's top weapons
evaluator. says the recently an
nounced Soviet intercontinental
ballistic missile may actually
have been an earth satellite
which failed to orbit.
"Such q flight which barely
missed DRIFTING would have sent
the Grant Sputnik several
thousand miles and could have
been everything that Nikita 8.
Khrushchev claimed In his an
nouncement." the admiral said.
In an address before the
American Rocket 6ociety-In-
stitute Of Aeronautical Sciences
meeting in New York last night,
the director Of the Weapons
Systems Evaluation Group
made Is clear his reaction was
not based on specific intelli-
gence. But he added:
ut seems to me unlikely that
O first attempt to launch q
(satellite) would be successful
in all respects. The fact that
the Russians did not announce
In advance their intention TO
launch in accordance with In
ternational Geophysical Year
agreements. lends further ere
dence to my reaction"
Guidance Tops Propulsion
Admiral Sides conceded that
the later. successful launching
OF Sputnik indicates the Rus
SLAMS have q rocket with Q
powerful thrust.
But beyond this we must not
'be deluded into thinking that
q propulsion plant equals an
ICBM." he continued. TT does
represent one component. but
1t Is the component which en-
tails the least intricate and
least sophisticated technology.
"The guidance system Is the
heart Of such q weapon-and
placing q satellite in orbit re-
quires only the grossest kind Of
accuracy. compared to that re-
Quired for an effective ICBM."

Some colleagues of Senator
Knowland Republican OF Cali

than a $3.50 chance that he
will seek the 1860 Republican

They reached that conclusion

said. II it became apparent there
was substantial opposition to
Mr. Knights candidacy within
the ranks of California Repub-

But unless the path was fairly
