Russians Scott
AT Explorer III

LONDON. Mar. 81 R.-The
Russians squeezed sour grapes
today at the news that the
United States has put up one
more artificial satellite than
the SovietS have.
In an obvious reference to
the 31-pound weight of Ameri-
cas- new Explorer III, Moscow
Radio said sending UP satel-
lites "of microscopic dimen-
sions" will never solve the
problems of interplanetary
travel.
1.-THE possibility for early
solution of the question OF
interplanetary travel rests or
the creating of artificial satel-
lites of considerable weight,
the broadcast declared.
The Soviet Unions Sputnik
II weighed 1,12O pounds.

CIemency Asked
For 81 Who Fled

PARIS. Mar. 81 (R.-The
United States Embassy here is
being deluged with mail for
President Eisenhower asking
that he grant clemency to an
Army private who fled during
World War II to live with a
French girl.
The ex-private, Wayne Pow
ers of Livingston County, Mo-,
is the father now of five chill
dren.
The Embassy said it has re-
ceived $4,000 letters pleading
his case since a radio station
in the Saar asked its listeners
two nights ago to write in.
Letters have come from France,
Germany. the low countries
and Switzerland.
Powers. 81, is in the United
States Army stockade at Yer
dun. A court-martial will try
him on desertion charges. The
maximum penalty if convicted
is death.

DR.. Laitone said it was his
opinion the Russians have tried
to fire rockets to the moon since
launching of the two Soviet
satellites.
There Is a very difficult
guidance problem involved in
hitting the MOON" he said. Il
believe the Russians have run
into that problem and now are
