officer that decision had been
taken to push hard on it.
Congressional critics Of the
Pentagon on the issue many
times have expressed the fear
that Russia would beat the
United States in getting an
atomic plane into the air.
The Air Force long has
stated it wanted such a craft.
which could stay aloft indefi-
nitely with its nuclear fuel
plant and have an unlimited
range.
But the critics say the prof.
ect has been stymied some
where, perhaps because Of
budgetary considerations or
because of perfectionist de-
mands of scientists and en-
gineers.
These sources say that about
$500 million have been poured
into research and development
on such a plane so far by the
Defense Departm mt and
Atomic Energy Commission.
Could Be Built
Defense officials concede
that an atomic plane could be
built to fly now, members Of
the Atomic Energy Committee
say. But they add the Penta-
gon believes the craft would
be far short of the perform
ance desired and that much
more research is needed.
Mr.. Price said he did not
agree with this philosophy.

lens until we get a plane in

anybody's guess when that will
be. They have even discarded

u. S. Defends
Atom Shurinq
With Allies
BY the Associated Press

The State Department says
that if America were to deprive
its European allies of nucleal
capability it would seriously
endanger Western survival"
The Department stated its
case in a lengthy defense of
agreements to share nuclear
weapons data and equipment
with its allies.
Chairman Fulbright of the
Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee made the statement pub
lie yesterday. The first two
agreementS-with Great Britain
and France-are being acti-
waited today.
The Department discussed
primarily, however, the agree
ments for arming Greece, West
Germany, the Netherlands and
Turkey with modern, nuclear
capability weapons delivery
systems (but not the warheads)
for use in event of aggression.
In such event the United States
could supply the warheadS as
needed for defense.
These latter agreements will
take effect at various times
over the next several weeks if
Congress does not forestall
them. Congress did nothing
adverse to the British and
French agreements in the 60
days they were pending.
Senators Church, Democrat
of Idaho, and Morse, Democrat
of Oregon, suggested in the
Senate yesterday that go days
leaves too little time for the
public to become familiar with
what is at issue and to speak
its views. They said 100 days
would be more appropriate.
Senator Humphrey, Demo-
crat of Minnesota, voiced re-
luctant acceptance of the
agreements.
Senator Humphrey, chair
man of the Foreign Relations
Disarmament Subcommittee,
said in a Senate speech:
I'VE must be careful not to
contribute to the proliferation
of nuclear weapons through
separate and small steps, each
of which moves the world to-
ward a larger nuclear armed
camp"

RALPH McGILL

HAVANA, Cuba.-The cab
met of Cubas provisional
government was called for a
quick meeting in quarters at
the Havana-H Hilton Hotel,
which, incidentally, was built
largely by funds invested by
the Cooks and Walters Union.
Fidel was tardy. The cabi-
net waited. At last a beaming
Castro entered. He had been
dining happily with the wor-
Shipping help in the kitchen.
A cabinet member later
was moved both to admira-
ton and speculation.
Never before in history"
he said, has a cabinet waited
on a prime minister who was
dining with the cooks and
walters in the kitchen. 1t eX-
plains what Fidel means
when he says this is a revo-
luton uniquely Cuban
The minister did not con-
slider it in any sense unseem-
ly, as he would have had he
not known that Fidel had
acted with typical spontane-
ity. There is a feeling that
Castro at times longs for the
good old days in the Sierra
Maestro mountains. He is not
made for details.
"Fidel," said . minister,
has a genius for diSorgani-
cation. He defeated Batista
largely because he diSorgan-
lied him. BY trying to COM
pete, Batista lost all control
and must have been near
madness from Illustration
when he fled the blood bath
he had created trying to
match Fidel.
"Fidel is at once our weak
ness and our strength.

continued, lies in his abil-
ity to communicate. This is

Jackson Sees
Soviet Missile
Threat Rising
By The Associated Press

Senator jackson, Democrat
Of Washington, says Russia
has a growing capability Of
destroying United States cities
with nuclear missiles and I'VE
DO not have an effective means
to stop such an attack"
Senator Jackson spoke as
chairman of The Joint Atomic
Energy Committees Military
Applications Subcommittee,
after presiding at three Gays
Of closed-door hearings on I'M
dersea warfare problems. Wit
nesses included top-ranking
Naval officers.
The Senator released a state
ment saying the Navy is doing
AN excellent job within its
existing fund limitations" and
adding:
To-day, the Soviets already
have the capability of destroy
ing American cities and in
dustrieS with nuclear warhead
missiles launched from units
of their huge conventional
submarine fleet. We do not
have an effective means to stop
such an attack.
Sees Threat Growing
THE threat will become
enormously greater when the
Soviets produce misSile-fring
Inuclear submarines. They have
it in their capacity to do so ir
quantity at an early date. Nc
defensive system now in belng
offers an effective answer tc
deep-running nuclear Subma'
rines and research and develop
ment is therefore of crucia
importance"
There is grave doubt, Sen
ator Jackson said, that the
United States program OF un-
dersea warfare research anc
development lis large enough
to find a good defense against
nuclear submarines in time tc
meet the threat"
THE best defense against
one submarine is another" he
said. but our construction
program for attack submarines
does not reflect this fact.
Smaller Fleet Planned
although the PolariS weap'
onS system is a nearly invul'
nerable deterrent against all
out war, we are now planning
to build a far smaller Polari!
fleet, on a far slower time
table, than we can and should.
Senator JackSon's statement
gave this capsule version of hi
recommendation:
Il. A greatly stepped-up pro-
gram of both basic and applied
research and development il

systems.

CONSTRUCTED at a faster rate

the dignity inherent in all people.
What about social standing?
Everybody fights for social
standing, commented tall, gang
ling, handsome easy-going Archie,
IF you haven't got a decent place
to live, or a decent job, what good
is social standing? Social standing
comes automatically after you get
the home, the job and the edu-
cation"
Joe Louis, King Cole, Ralph
Bunche, Jackie Robinson and hun
dreds of others didn't worry about
social standing First they got
the home and the job; their social
standing then came as naturally
as throwing a seven with loaded
dice"
Archie has been proving this
point most of his adult life, and
he's still on the sunny side Of 40
SO to be exact. Married and the
father of two handsome children,
Archie III Is, and Roxanne 7.
Archie and his pretty wife Phebe,
also Minneapolis born, bred and
educated, live in their own home
at 424S Third Avenue South. Soc
tally, he's a square in that he
plays no instruments, can't carry
a tune and never earned his athle-
tic letter at Sumner grade school
nor West high school.
However he's been a barrier
breaker his entire life, and by
breaking barriers, he's been adding
to the dignity of the people of this
community.
Not too long ago Archie broke
the "40th Street barrier in south
Minneapolis when he first talked
a contractor into building A homes

families in the neighborhood which
was probably more antagonistic
to Negroes than any other section
of the city. At that time a Negro
was unable to purchase a home on
the open market. Editors Note:
This is still true).
He started from scratch, first
finding the land, then in coopera-
ton with the Minneapolis Urban
League talking a contractor into
building the homes, then he per-
sonally went out and sold every
one of the A homes himself.
That's the story of Archie Civ
ems life - helping people to help
themselves, preserving the dignity
and self respect as necessary as
food and shelter and education to
all men.
Arches had failures. but he
always gets back on his feet. A
few years ago he opened an ice
cream store; it failed, but not be-
cause of a lack of customers
it seems Archie had too many
friends. In fact, today Archie Civ
ems probably has more friends in
all walks of life than any other
person in Minneapolis. The fact
his blu iness venture faile d
isn't important - what is import
ant is that Archie didn't file bank
ruptcy He paid off every creditor
in full. After a brief venture into
the real estate business, Archie
then went into government work.
At the present time he has one
of the most important positions in
government service in the north
west - property manager for the
Minneapolis Housing Authority, in
charge of rentals and maintenance
of all acquired property in the
lower loop development - a posi-
ton in which he's responsible for
hundreds of thousands of dollars
in property.
Prior to that, he had the same
position in the Glenwood redevel-
opment area.
He's an active member of the
community in social projects. He's
president of the Phyllis Wheatly
House mems club, and on the
Board of Directors of NAACP E nd
Phyllis Wheatley. He's also an
active member of the Urban
League.
His next community project?
I'm not at liberty to say yet"
commented Archie, But I'll say
this . it will aid the community
more than all the social climbing
activity in Minneapolis in the past
decade"
