Senate Preparedness Committee Looks
 Into Submarine and Missile Programs

WASHINGTON, Ri-The Sen ate Preparedness Subcommittee looks into the adequacy of the Navy's submarine and missile programs today as it opens the final week of it's current phase of hearings.
 Adm. Arleigh A. Burke, chief of Naval Operations, and Rear Adm. WE. Raborn, who is super vising development of the Navy's Polaris missile, were among wit nesses called for closed-door tes- timony.
 While Congress members ar gued variously that more money, more clearly defined authority and more creative thinking are needed to spur United States de- lenses against Russian scientific gains, the weekend brought these developments:
 l. Sen. Jackson D-Wash) said Senate Democrats are considering a two billion dollar package pro posal to increase appropriations for long-range jet bombers, both intermediate and medium range ballistic missiles, and missile-fir- ing submarines.
 2. Sens. Humphrey O-Minn) and Mcclellan O-Arb prepared a bill to establish cabinet-level department of science and tech nology to include the Atomic En- ergy Commission, the National Science Foundation, Bureau of Standards, Patent Office and other agencies. The bill also

Ike's Economic Report to Congress Says We Can Meet Russia's Challenge Without Distorting Our Economy

ing: If "unwarranted" wage and price increases emerge from this springs bargaining, the prospec- tive recovery could be delayed.
 "The latest challenge of inter national Communism will require a further increase in the econ omic claims of national security, which are already heavy" Eisen- hover said.
 If we follow suitable private and public policies, this challenge can be met without distorting our economy, or destroying the free doms that we cherish.
 "Whatever our national secur- ity requires, our economy can provide and we can afford to pay"
 The business s-stimulating effect of enlarged defense spending all ready is being felt, Eisenhower reported, and the October rever- sal of the governments anti-in- flation policy has noticeably lib- eralized credit and cut costs 'Qf borrowing.
 Other official sources, more ex- plicit than the President, said the downtrend is expected to con tinue until a turnaround point is reached in the April-June quarter or the July-Steptember period.

Dr. Fuchs and Party
 Greeted At South Pole By Hillary and Quick

WELLINGTON, New Zealand, R - Dr. Vivian Fuchs and his British ground team reached the South Pole today and announced they firmly intended to press on to the other side of Antarctica.
 Tough and fit despite their grueling 57-day trek across more than 900 miles of snow and ice, the British explorer said he would go on as planned to Scott base, on McMurdo Sound, for the first overland crossing of the con- tinent.
 Rear Adm. George Quick, US. chief of Operation Deep Freeze, and Sir Edmund Hillary, who reached the pole overland 16 days earlier, were on hand to greet the 12 Britons who had brought their tractor train over 94O miles of terrain no man had set foot on before.
 Hillary and Quick went out to meet the Britons mile from the polar base. As the tractor train pulled up with flags flying, Hill lary advanced to greet Fuchs.
 ''Hello, Bunny" said the con- queror of Mt Everest, and the two men shook hands warmly.
 Fuchs appeared surprised by the welcoming party and battery of cameras.
 T say-this is rather unex- pected," the veteran, 49-year-old explorer commented.
 Also with Fuchs were the dog teams which he has always in sisted on having on his polar trips.
 The hearty exchange of greet ings appeared to discount reports of coolness between Hillary and Fuchs.

 3. Pending establishment of it's advanced research projects agen- cy, the Defense Dept. ordered its missiles director, William Hola- day, to coordinate the develop ment of devices to detect and de- stroy enemy missiles.
 4. The magazine Aviation Week predicted that the Air Force will attempt within the next few months" to send a payload rock ct to the moon, and said the Army will test nuclear explosions up to 50 miles above the earth in ex- periments this summer in the mid-Pacific testing grounds.
 5. Censored testimony of de- fense contractors, released by the Senate Subcommittee, reported that the Air Force has ordered development on "a limited basis" of large scale satellite vehicles" for reconnaissance.

Ralph Swann, an Army rocket fuel expert at Huntsville, Ala, disclosed in an interview that in laboratory tests, solid fuels for rockets are showing all most of much thrust as liquid fuels, opening the way to even tual factory production of ballis- tic missiles which can be shipped ready to fire.

By STERLING F. GREEN

WASHINGTON, R-President Eisenhower said today the coun- try can lick the recession this year, pay in full the cost of meet ing Russia's new challenge, and go forward to "real economic growth without inflation."
 His economic report, third and last of the annual White House messages to Congress, carried a Appoint program of home-front legislation. Most of the requests were familiar, but Eisenhower said they are now urgent"
 He pledged his policies will be shaped to foster the earliest pos sible business recovery.
 But he gave no hint the admin istration is considering any such strong medicine as tax cuts, pub lic works or deliberate deficits, and avoided even the words ire cession" or depression"
 Eisenhower disclosed the slump began sooner and hit harder than officials had expected. In the past three months national production dropped six billion dollars, or 112 per cent, he said, from the record rate of 439 billion a year achieved in the previous quarter.

cHEcKUP OF INJURED LEG

Milwaukee (ANP) - Milwaukee
centerfielder Bill Bruton, who was
injured towards the middle of the
1857 baseball season and missed
all the remaining games, includ-
ing the World Series, Monday I'M
derwent a checkup in Oklahoma
City to determine whether his
right knee has healed enough to
permit him to participate in early
spring training drills.
Bruton tore a hgament in his
right knee when he colHded with
teammate Felix Manulla while
chasing a pop fly off the bat of
Bill Virdon of Pittsburgh last july.
He has been on the disabled list
ever since.
Monday he was examined by DR..
Donald ODonoghue, the orthopedic
surgeon who operated on him the
day of the second game of the
World Series. Bruton had said that
he was feeling fine and hopes to
take part in spring training, but
club officials here ordered him to
undergo the operation.
Last fall, Bruton was said to be
greatly disturbed at not being able
to participate in the Series. As it
turned out, however, his team
mates won without him, defeating
the hitherto awesome New York
Yankees.
