Bid fOrCarrier
Meets Trouble
In the Senate
BY L. EDGAR PRINA
star star Writer

The Nays about bid for a
new 75.000-ton aircraft car
rier. already under fire In the
House. has run into trouble in
the Senate.
Opposition developed In an
unexpected quarter at q Sem
ate Appropriations Subcommit-
tee budget hearing yesterday
as Navy Secretary Gates and
Admiral James S. Russell. Vice
Chief OF Naval Operations,
called the carrier vital to con-
troll OF the seas.
Senator Dworshak, Republic
can Of Idaho, led q one-man
assault. tying his opposition TO
what he contended was the car
rier's vulnerability.
Verbal Engagement
Before the day was over, the
Senator and the Admiral traded
several verbal salvos.
The Senator accused the wit
ness Of disparaging the Air
Force when he testified that
fixed land bases are extremely
vulnerable" to long-range mis-
sile attack. The admiral snapped
this reply:
Senator, I feel you are I'M
duly sensitive. am not defend
ing an Air Force budget. I am
here to defend the Nays
budget.
Nov as to the carrier. which
apparently is one Of your
targets, we must have it If you
wish us to do the job we must
do"
The Navy clearly found the
communication problem diff
cult in its effort to get its
message across to the Idahoan.
Cites POlaris
After Mr.. Gates and Admiral
Russell emphasized the carriers
particular use for Show-of-
force and limited war purposes,
Senator Dworshak asked:
why do you need a new
carrier If the Polaris missile
is so good?"
We'll, that's comparing APP
Piles and oranges, Senator" Mr..
Gates replied. "Polaris is one
of the most If not the most
effective retaliatory systems
yet designed. The carrier, while
it has a role in all-out war. is
only a junior partner to SAC
(Strategic Air Command but
1t the best way we know to
handle aircraft for limited
war"
Later the Senator again
pressed his ''vulnerability"
criticism, calling the carrier q
"prime target"
Admiral Russell, who is a
Navy aviator, flushed.
Senator, it is something we
will fight with. 1t is a weapon
of war;" he said. "As for vul-
nerability, the B-52 (jet
bomber) is also vulnerable"
Speed Issue Raised
Senator Dworshak, who had
been praiSing SAC as the num-
Der one deterrent force, pointed
out that the B-52 was faster
than a carrier.
, mot when it's sitting on an
'airstrip, Senator" the Admiral
retorted.
Senator Chavez, Democrat Of
New Mexico, the subcommittee
chairman, recalled that many
planes we're destroyed on the
ground during World War II.
Then he told Admiral Russell:
You kind of give me the
feeling that you know what you
are talking about"
Air Force officials have been
called to testify before the sub
committee today.

Transit Rate
Hike Plea to

George Spiegel, prize-winning
attorney from Silver Spring, has
been retained as counsel by a
group of persons fighting a fare

Transit Co
Spiegel, of 1881 Lorraine ave-,
won the Stott award given in 1855
by the Allied Civic Group. The
award followed his work in
effecting a compromise with the
Potomac Electric Power Co, that
resulted in maintaining a status
quo, and in some cases, a reduc-
ton in service rates while the
utility was going after higher
rates.
Spiegel recently filed papers
on behalf of three citizens of
Washington, Arlington and Glen
Echo, that would permit the three
to intervene in litigation be,
tween ID. c. Transit and the Pub
lie Utilities Commission.
ID. c. Transit is seeking a court
ruling that, in effect, may give
the company the right to charge
riders at least IS cents per ride
and earn 252 percent yearly re-
turn on investment, according to
Spiegel.

Early Abnormalities
Studied i'm Children

A project TO detect early alb
normalities of growth and de-
velopment in infants and chill
dren attending the well-child
clinics of the Montgomery Coun-
ty Health Department is under
way.
The Maryland State Board Of
Health'S Division Of Maternal
and Child Health and the Mont
gomery County Health Depart
ment are jointly sponsoring this
project.
Dr. Caroline Chandler, director
of the State Division, and DR..
Liselotte Fischer, child psy-
biologist from Johns Hopkins
staff, met with Health Depart
ment staff and clinicians of the
Child Health Clinics to formulate
procedures for carrying out this
project.
DR.. Fischer. who has had much
experience with children, will
observe the next regularly sched-
uled Child Health Clinic in Rock
inghorse Health Center before
starting her testing schedule. She
will also speak to the entire
nursing staff about methods of
selecting children which she
should see as well as defining the
detectives of the program.
1t is hoped that if this project
proves as beneficial as antic-
ipated, such service might even
tually become part of the routine
of the well-child conferences.
Meanwhile, the Rockinghorse
clinic staff will acquire skills in
selecting patients for further at
tention, having already con-
ferred with the psychologist
about cases to be seen. The staff
will assist health department
clinicians in selecting children
for further attention from DR..
Fischer.
The following are some pos.
sible reasons for calling a child
to DR.. Fischer's attention:
GA child considered "below
par" in general level of activity
organization and or motor con-
troll with no known cause or APP
parent reason.
. Children who have had a re-
cent traumatizing illness or acct
dent such as encephalitis or falls
with skull fracture.
. Children showing signs of
neurological disturbance shortly
after birth.
