Army Sergeant Killed By Unknown Assailant In Beirut

BEIRUT, tR m A US. Army sergeant was fatally shot Friday night by unknown assailants as his truck was passing through Beirut, an Army spokesman said.
 Both an Army team and Leba- nese authorities were investigat- ing the shooting but there was no immediate indication who fired the bullet which struck the Segreant at the base of the throat.
 He was the fifth American to die-the first four accidentally since US. troops began landing in Lebanon July Is at the the request of pro- Western President Camille Glamour. The s e r. geant's name was withheld until next of kin could be notified.
 The Army spokesman gave this account of the fatal shooting.
 With two others, the sergeant was travelling east on Beirut's Fouad Street, which leads to the Lebanese security forces head quarters.
 About 1000 yards west of the headquarters shots rang out. The sergeant, sitting in the front seat, apparently put his head out of the window to see where the shots were coming from and a g millimeter bullet struck him at the base of the throat.
 A Lebanese security force man took the sergeant to a hospital but he was dead on arrival. ~ His three-quarter-ton truck with trailer was being used to move radio relay station equip ment from North Beirut to the airport south of the city. The truck was hit several times, it's canvas top pierced, and two tires punctured.
 The driver apparently lost his way and picked up the Lebanese security man who was directing the way.

WASHINGTON, R-The Uni ted States Saturday recognized the new revolutionary govern ment of Iraq.
 The action came three weeks after the Iraqi government seized power.
 At that time the United States denounced it as having gained control through brutality and murder.
 The State Department an- nounced the recognition was granted after assurances were received from the new regime through JUN. Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold that Iraq is bound 'fby the United Nations Charter and it's other international obligations.
 Britain had recognized the new government Friday. Other US. allies had acted previously or were expected to do so promptly.
 US. recognition was formally extended when Ambassador Wal demar J. Gallman called at the foreign ministry of the Iraq re- public and delivered a note.
 The note said the United States accepted Iraq's assurances that it would live up to it's interna- tional obligations and extended recogition to the government of the republic of Iraq with the ex- pression of it's good wishes"
 The Iraqi ruling group seized power July IA. The revolt set off the general Middle East crisis which caused President Eisenhower to dispatch troops to protect the pro- Western govern ment of Lebanon and the British to take similar action in' Jordan

Boiling Ends Record Flight In Oregon

PENDLETON, Ore, R - Vet eran flier Marion Boiling says he never would want to re-live the hours of his record, nonstop flight across the Pacific Ocean. ''This was the toughest thing I've ever done," the handsome 43-year-old Boiling said after ending the 6,979-mile flight here Friday.
 T wouldn't want to go back and re-live those hours, but I think I'll always look back on them as the best AS hours of my life," the Palo Alto, Calif., pilot said.
 The flight had begun in Manila, and it ended 45 hours and A minutes later when Boiling touched down his Beechcraft Bonanza in brilliant sunshine here.
 Boling's flight broke the non stop record for light planes set in 1949 by his idol and inspira- tion-the late Capt. Bill Odom.
 ''The original idea must have gone way back to Lindenbergh, but from the night I saw Bill Odom take off in Honolulu knew I could make it someday," Boiling said.
 Boiling encountered serious diff faculties on the flight across the Pacific One, he nearly had to ditch the plane.
 When Boiling came into this Eastern Oregon town for land ing, he was dizzy, a little sick and nearly out of gasoline
 "I got awfully lonely at times It's a lonesome thing to fly that far in a little, tiny machine with nothing to keep you company"
 T thought about the wife, and the kids, and kept looking at that big yellow moon shining off that cold Pacific
 ''I didn't have portable radio. l d1Qnt nave a parachute. l left it in Manila because it weighed 25 pounds" he said.
 Boiling, however, did carry Bible. Did he pray? He said well, I'd just rather not :" and his voice trailed off.
 The most serious trouble, he said, was encountered after he left the Cold Bay, Alaska, area.
 Ice began forming on the plane, and, as he started to descend, the craft began to lose fuel. Finally, he dropped to 1,50O feet.
 T really thought was going to have to put it in the water, but then I got out of that when it began to rain"

world Citing an instance from his own experience, when he one saw service on a coal-fired Navy craft, and later aboard a nuclear powered submarine; the Admiral illustrated the change in concepts in use of weapons of war, ard the constant adjustments, not always foreseeable, that had to be made. The submarines today, equipped as they are with guided missiles of deadly accuracy and range power, furnishes us with protec- ton for shipping, and enables us to supply materials when requir- ed and where required.
 Its aximatic,' Admiral Nc Kechnie concluded, that each branch of the service must do it's job. Each branch cannot do the job alone.''

 The Admiral pointed out the need for readiness, especially in these times of world unrest. A powerful fighting strength has to be maintained, he, said, but the use of it was a determining factor in keeping the peace. "Exerting too much pressure, would bring on war;" he said. Too little pressure could lose war" #
