cost a major factor.
He added that producing mis-
siles is not like producing auto
mobiles or washing machines
when big savings can be made
by concentrating on one as
sembly line.
With a relatively small pro-
duction in missiles, he said he
was not sure yet whether there
would be any substantial saw
ings in concentrating on a
single type of IRBM. He
pointed out that it might cost
more to build extra factories
to produce single type Of mis-
sile than it would to disperse
production to two types.

Tornadoes ripped across areas
in Alabama, Kentucky and

Birmingham area and several
small Alabama communities.
Hopkinsville, KY, was hit
hard by floodwaters from the
Little River. However, by to-
day all streets were clear and
cleanup operations were under

over thousands of acres of cot

one in the newspapers. He in
dicated, in any case. that the
secrecy orders were not partic-
ularly any Of his business, since

If another telegram placed in
the record was an accurate re-
Election of the facts, Mr.. Sny-
der apparently was In no posi-
ton TO object to the blackout
orders Of the three services.
This telegram, also signed by
Mr.. Hoffman and dated Oc-
tober 9, stated:
President desires that Air
Force personnel refrain from
making public comment on the
satellite program Of the United
States and other countries"
Mr.. Snyder explained that in
the view of the Pentagon, what
the people Of the United States
needed was authoritative in
formation, and that the orders
put out by the military services
were designed to prevent loose
talk by people who did not
necessarily know much about
the subject. He indicated that
part of the Pentagon's decision
was based on q desire to mini
mize possible hysteria.

lie relations policy statement
had proved somewhat embar-
RAISING to the Pentagon.
Mr.. Snyder told the subcom-
mittee that he caused the
policy to be rescinded as soon
as he learned of its existence.
What is more. Mr.. Snyder said,
he told the Air Force that he
thought the man who devel-
oped such Q policy should be
'censured."
The word embarrassing"
was embodied IN a telegram
sent from one. Air Force Office
to another on October II, about
two weeks after the Russians
shot Sputnik I into the sky.
Part Of Message
The message read in part:
During these particularly
difficult and changing times, it
is impossible to give specific
and all-inclusive direction and
guidance since many of our eff
forts are in various stages of
implementation and since cur
rent events result in changing
official and public reaction.
Such policy guidance as has
been provided. even though un-
classified, should not be dis
seminated for other than off,
cial use. -. ~
II enjoin you to personally
oversee very closely the public
information activities in your
area of operations and to in
sure that inadvertant, although
perhaps well-intended released
or statements. are not made
which may prove embarrassing
at all levels of command"
The author Of this message
was Harold M. Hoffman, deputy
director of information services
in the Air Research and Devel-
opment Command in Balti-
more. His message was sent
to the Air Force missile devel-
opment command in Inglewood,
Calf.
Mr.. Snyder acknowledged in
answer to a question by Repre-
sentative Fascell, Democrat of
Florida, that the three military
services had tight restrictions
on public utterances about earth
satellites, even though the sub
ject was itself unclassified.
Three Orders Read
Mr.. Fascell read to Mr.. Sny-
der three orders dated Novem-
Der 9, one from the Army, one
from the Navy and one from
the Air Force, and commented
when three chiefs of serv-
ices issue the same order
couched in the same language
on the same day. it is reason
able to assume that somebody
told them to issue it,"
II didn't" Mr.. Snyder replied

McELROY INVITES
REDS TO OUTFLY
LeMAY IN TANKER
BY a Star STAR Correspondent


AUGUSTA, Ca. Nov. 10.
Secretary of Defense Nc
Elroy today took up Soviet
Communist Boss Khru-
schev's challenge to a
competition to show of
new weapons.
Mr.. McElroy was asked
at a news conference his
reaction to what a reporter
called Mr.. Khrushchev's
suggestion for a friendly
competition to. show of
our missiles"
Mr.. McElroy replied
that his reaction came
after news of Gen. Curtis
LeMay's flight to Buenos
Aires and return in a KC-
135 long range jet tanker
plane,
MY understanding" he
said. sis that under the
rules of dueling the chal-
lenged part has the right
to choose the weapons.
My choice would be the
KC-135 with Curt LeMay
at the controls. I think
there would be no question
about who would win that
one"

Soviet bloc would be un-
balanced.
One high Western source ex-
pressed the belief that it was
useless to try further to pre-
vent q Soviet boycott. This
source said the Soviet Union
apparently had decided to
break on the talks no matter
what the West agreed to.
The new countries proposed
by the Soviet bloc were Austria.
Bulgaria. Indonesia. Romania,
Sudan. Finland and Ceylon.
The West has spent the last
few days haggling with the
Russians on how many Western
nations they would allow In the
talks in exchange for more
Soviet-bloc and neutral ma
tons. The 25-nation plan
emerged yesterday In q United
States-backed resolution.
The commission in the past
has been made up Of the IL
Security Council members and
Canada, but the actual nego-
tiations have been carried on
by q five-nation subcommittee
made up Of the United States,
Britain. France. Canada and
the Soviet Union.
The Western proposal, in IT.
self a diplomatic victory for
the Russians, called for adding

year period beginning January

UNITED NATIONS, N. ",
Nov. 10 R.-The Soviet Union
declared today it would not take
lpart in further United Nations
disarmament talks unless the
Assembly approved a Soviet
bloc demand to give Communist
and neutral nations a larger
voice.
The United States opposed
1.-THE Soviet demand.
| Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
lister Vastly v. Kuznetsoy told
1.-THE General Assembly he would
vote against q Western backed
compromise plan to add IA new
members to the U. N. Disarma-
ment Commission and would
refuse to participate in the
Icommission's work If the plan
lis approved.
Instead he insisted that the
Assembly should add 81 new
countries to the commission,
bringing its total size to 80
members, half Western and
half either Communist or ''un-
committed"
Unacceptable. Lodge Says
United States Delegate Henry
Cabot Lodge urged the Assem-
bly, to approve the Western
plan - sponsored by Japan,
Canada. India, Yugoslavia,
Sweden and Paraguay-despite
the threatened Soviet boycott.
He said the Soviet bloc pro-
posal. sponsored by Albania,
was unacceptable.
! Mr.. Lodge also opposed a
move by midas Arthur Lall to
adjourn the debate to permit
further private negotiations.
I The Assembly turned down
the Indian proposal by a vote
Of % in favor. AZ against and 2
abstaining. The Soviet bloc
voted for postponement.
| Mr.. Kuznetsov indicated that
Russia would take part in a
commission Of 80 members,
but that it considered this only
a halfway" measure. He
served notice the Soviet Union
would press again next year to
have the commission expanded
to include all 80 U. N. members.

dividual right Of self defense.
The question of how big the
arms shipments should be he
would not discuss. He said he
had no idea whether one gun
per Tunisian soldier would sbe
a proper amount.
Mr.. Dulles said the United
Kingdom and the United States
had taken the course they
thought right and regretted
that the French feel as they
evidently do but added the
hope that the three powers can
work out an understanding for
the future.
United States officials said
yesterday Mr.. Dulles probably
will refuse to back down at to-
days meeting from the posi-
ton that Western powers must
meet Tinisia's demands for de.
fensive weapons.
He may, however, agree to
hold back any additional arms
for a month or so. A temporary
embargo, aides hope, will allow
time for French anger to cool
of. Delay also might patch up
the rift in the alliance until
after the December 1918
unity" meeting of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
Council.
Pineau States Purpose
Mr.. Pineau told reporters on
his arrival that the North AZ
rican situation was the main
purpose Of his fight from
Paris.
He said the arms shipments
harmed Atlantic solidarity at
the very moment efforts were
being made to reinforce it.
Mr.. Dulles is expected to tell
Mr.. Pineau at today's confer
ence that the United States
viii consult France before send
ing any more arms to Tunisia,
but will refuse to give the
French veto power in case OF
disagreement. Mere consulta-
ton about the first weapons
shipment did not satisfy the
French.

nd estimate if one were talk
lg about q single missile but
hat it might be about right in
regard to large squadrons of
missiles.
Mr.. McElroy explained that
he reason he expected to have
additional units of IRBM's
available for development on
allied bases - beyond those
already committed to Great
Britain - is mainly budgetary.
He added that the new De-
Tense Department budget would
provide for ordering production
Of more missiles than had been
previously contemplated, ex-
planning that if ordered now,
delivery naturally could be ex-
pected earlier than II a budget

What I am talking about"
the Defense Secretary said, lis
developing a program Of pro-
duction which will carry us be-
yond the supplying Of. the al
"eady committed missiles for
'ngland."
Reached Accord In March
Agreement for supplying
american missiles to England
was reached at the Bermuda
conference between President
eisenhower and Prime Minister
Macmillan last March.
AS to what other countries
will get the American missiles,
Mr.. McElroy said that will be
subject to negotiation. He re-
ferred to the State Department
the question about whether
these negotiations would center
at the NATO summit meeting
at Paris next month.
In response to other ques-
tions, the Defense Secretary
said he would consider turning
over the American missiles for
use by allied troops instead OF
keeping control in American
hands "a sound way of provid-
in gthis type of deterrent power
against the Russian threat"
New legislation Needed
He added that Congress:
would have to change the Law
before atomic warheads for the
missiles could be made avail
able to allied countries except
under American control up tc
the time Of use.
The Defense Secretary ex-
planned that he thought inter-
mediate range missiles deployed
in Europe would be a stand
of" to Russian ICBM's "be.
cause the greater range Of the
missile the greater is the prob
ability Of error in finding the
target"
80 the closer you can come
to the target" he added, the
more likely you are to land on
it with your ballistic missiles.
"Of course with the ICBM
you can have a larger war
head. You have two different
types Of advantage. In my
judgment there would be no
deficiency in our defense pos
ture. Vis-a-vis an opponent
with the ICBM II we have
IRBMs developed within range. .
