rocket was "static tested" last
week.
The test involved the second
or middle stage of the rocket
the stage containing most OF
the rockets guidance system
Estate Testing"
"Static testing" means firing
a rocket stage while It is fas-
tened to the launching pad SO
it won't take of.
Mr.. Walsh said only one more
static test remained-that of
the first stare of the rocket.
He said the third stage, carry
ing the satellite payload, would
not be so tested. He declined
to say when the next test would
take place.
1t has been announced that
the attempt to launch the first
small satellite will be made in
December.
The Navy has indicated If
this rocket is successful in plac-
ing its six-icnh satellite in an
orbit. then tw oother planned
launchings of such satellites
may be dropped. An attempt
then would be made to launch
a 20-inch satellite with full
instruments ahead of the orig
inal March target date-pos-
sibly in January.

ISenate-House Committee have
raised questions about the
British security system. They
have said that If information
is given to Britain. it also must
be given to France. Italy and
West Germany. Some Of them
regard this as too wide q field
of dispersal of secrets. not ali
of which may be known to
Russia.
Some have objected to any
exchange of information with
countries which do not now
have atomic weapons programs
Others have said the exchange
would be a one-way street,
from which the United States
would gain little.
These advance objections
have put Mr.. Eisenhower and
Mr.. Dulles on notice there is
trouble ahead for any broad
scale proposals to pool scien-
tific information.

the satellite orbit on its first
attempt. proving ground off,
Gals said.
Significant Advance
The feat Of DR.. Reuyl's team
is regarded by scientists and
military men as a significant
advance in the fields of long
range missile defense and pure
astronomy.
DR.. Reuyl said the device
designated by the Army as a
small missile telecamera, was
conceived two years ago for
tracking small high-velocity
missiles at extreme distances.
1t was scheduled for operation
at the missile-testing center
near Alamogordo, N. Mex, next
year and was undergoing a
series of field trials at Aber-
deem when the Soviet union
launched its first earth satel-
lite last october 4.
Whenwhile, apparently only
one more major test remains
before the United States at
tempts the launching of its
first, experimental, 6-inch
satellite next month.

rector of the Nays Project

Senator Gore, Democrat OF
Tennessee. said today he be-
llieves European readiness to
|use American nuclear weapons
in wartime can be achieved
without amending the Atomic
Energy Act.
IT generally favor increased
Incorporation with our allies in
this field and If an amend
ment to the law is regarded as
necessary by the administra-
ton. i would give it serious
and sympathetic consideration, -
Senator Gore said in an in
terview.
But as of now know of no
such need and none has been
indicated to the Senate House
committee"
Senator Cores statement re-
fleets, in part. the kind of op-
position in Congress which
some think might force some
compromises in the admin
lstration's announced intention
to seek a freer exchange of
scientific atomic information
with United States allies.
Secrecy Provisions
President Eisenhower has said
he viii ask Congress to lift
some of the secrecy provisions
OF the Atomic Energy Act.
The proposal has drawn a
mixed, and none too favorable
reaction from Senate-House
atomic energy committeeman
OF whom Senator Gore~is one.
Chairman Durham, Democrat
OF North Carolina. among 9TH
ers. has questioned the ade-
quacy Of security systems in
nations which would get such
secret information.
The Administrators pro-
posal is expected to take pre-
liminary form in conferences
in the next few days between
Chairman Lewis l.. Strauss of
the Atomic Energy Commits
sion and Sir Edwin Plowden,
head of the British Atomic
Energy Authority.
Mr.. Strauss and Mr.. Plow-
den were named by Mr.. Eisen-
hover and Prime Minister
Macmillan Of Britain at their
October conference here to
study the proposed exchange
and submit recommendations
Mr.. Eisenhower and Secre-
tar yofs State Dulles appear
determined to seek some low
ering Of the secrecy ban. But
some members Of Congress OBJ
viously are beginning to see a
possible way around this in
Mr.. Dulles proposal to estab-
fish stockpiles of American
atomic weapons in Europe.
Technical Control
These weapons would be ear
marked for allied use in the
event of war. but would re-
main under technical control
Of the United States and thus
would not violate existing law
governing disposal of such
weapons.
Senator Gore said that with
such stockpiles established the
United States could go ahead
with all of the necessary prep
arations for allied use of the
weapons without changing the
law.
There is nothing in the
Atomic Energy Act to prevent
our allies from being informed
of the size of these weapons,
their destructive power and of

the mechanics for their use in

There is nothing in the act
that would prevent the inten-
sive training Of their soldiers
in the use of these Weapons.
If war came the President
could release the actual weap-
ons."
Pool With Britain
The act prevents the diulg-
ing of information about the
design and fabrication of the
nuclear component of the wea-
pom. 1t is this information
that Mr.. Eisenhower and Mr..
Dulles apparently want to pool
with Britain and other allies.

School Costs
Cut by Design
And Materials

TOWSON, Md, Nov. Is up.
New design and new building
materials have cut the cost of
a new junior high school con-
siderably under similar projects
of last year the Baltimore
County Board Of Education
said today.
The board last week awarded
a contract for a new 1850
pupil junior high school at
Middle River to Joseph F.
Hughes & Co., mo, on the
firms low bid of S2,057,395.
The board said the cost is
100000 below junior high
school projects last year.
1t said the reductions in the
face. of rising labor and ma
terial expenses, was accom-
plished through these factors:
/. Adoption Of a one-story
architectural "modular plan"
which permits use Of light
steel supports throughout the
building.
2. Elimination of costly stair
ways required in multi-story
buildings.
3. Use Of prefabricated panel
wall sections eliminating the
need Of masonry construction.
4. Use OF unit metal acous-
teal ceiling construction.
S. A favorable bid market
which resulted in proposals
from IL construction firms.
Morris r. Baker, school en-
gineer. said the metal panels
are not subject to weather wear
and need never be painted.
Damaged sections can be re-
placed at little cost. he said.
The building will have as
classrooms, a library. gymna-
SUM. health area. admins

County.
It's hard to say right now
exactly what the future will be
for the town of Fairfax. It
may become a city: it may stay
q town. 1t probably will try to
annex some county territory in
either case.
Whatever course the town
officials and the people decide
to take, Mr.. Saunders sees q
great future for the municipal
ity which has tripled its pOpu-
lation since 1850.
The $500 population town
lies almost in the center of the
county. Two main State high
ways intersect there. Route 90

Criticized by County
County officials see annexa-
ton and interpretations within
the county boundaries as a
threat to an efficient county
government. The county also
has sharply criticized the town
for pollution of Accotink Greek
with its sewage treatment plant.
I'VE intend to cooperate
with the county in any way
we can to the mutual advant--
age of BOTH" said Mr.. Saun-
ders. But we are not going
to let the county map our course
and sit as the judge of our
future. We intend to chart our
own course"
A New York consultant on
municipal finance now is max
ing a study for the town coun-
Gil on whether it should re-
main a town and annex land,
become a city and annex, or
stay as it is.
Mr.. Saunders said there is
q need for more business and
industry in the town area to
help reduce the tax load on
residential property. The town
has considerable undeveloped
business property but no in
dustrial land.
The town council isn't stand
Ing still. Two major projects
are in the works.
A 100000 addition to the
sewage treatment plant is ex-
pected to be completed by next
summer. 1t viii serve a popu-
lation of 10000. Mr.. Saunders
said the pollution problems will
be ended when the addition
goes into operation.
Water Project Planned
A $4.5 million water supply
project is being planned. This
would involve construction of
a dam on Goose Creek in LOU
doun County and piping the
water % miles to the town.
The water supply would be
enough to serve $4,000 people.
All the town is waiting for its
approval of the project by the
courts. Loudoun County off,
Gals have protested the project
and carried their case to the
Virginia Supreme Court of APP
peals
The town now provides water
and sewer service to the $500
people within its own bounda-
ries and to about 5000 in sur
rounding county territory.
The town has about rs
square miles of land. The natu-
raj drainage area served by its
