Red Scientists Offer
Sympathy on Rocket

MOSCOW, Aug. 1S tAP) -
Russian scientists took SYM
pathetic note today of the
United States attempt to shoot
for the moon. One said it was

it "a wonderful attempt"
There was no derision; they

Mrs. Anna Masevich, director
of the Soviet moonwatch pro-

said:
"A failure in the scientific
world is always a pity because
it effects so many people"
A. B. Severny, director of the
Crimean Observatory in South

successful, remains the first
wonderful attempt of a very
important activity"
The first attempt is the i'm

Leo A. Hoegh. director Of the

Jordan OK Seen
On Troop Plan
By the Associated Press

Senator Morton, Republican
Of Kentucky. said yesterday he
thinks Jordan will agree with
in a few days to a plan under
which British forces now. sta
toned there might be replaced
by a United Nations police
force.
Senator Morton, who was an
Assistant Secretary of State

thought it would be very diff
cult to stabilize Jordan because
it is "a country that was set up
with completely arbitrary
boundaries. 1t has no econom-
ic entity and no real cultural
entity of its own"
"Jordon is a difficult country
to cope with because of that, "

A Puff Of Smoke
ut was just a little puff OF

it was a little bigger than it
should have BEEN"
Never in the history of
United States missilery had a
shoot been planned with such
precision. The rocket had to
go off no earlier than 8:14
am. and if delays brought it
unfired to 1874 am, the shoot
would have had to be post
poned to about OILS am. to-
day. The shooting time was
allocated in Is or 20 minute
takes" across four days.
If the missile was not of
the ground by noon Wednes-
day, it would have to be held
until September IA, at the
earliest. Today, there was no
official indication that a Sec
ond bird would be launched
in September.
Pentagon Science Chief Roy
Johnson, Gen. Schriever and
Gen. Yates refused to divulge
plans. But just as the odds
were 10-1 on failure before yes
