The President said that so

The space agency was au-
thorized S53.5 million for the
fiscal year ending next June
30. Together with the S46,7
million requests for fiscal year
1860. this brings the NASA's

Einstein Theory
Committee m e m bers ex-
pressed great interest in the
agency's plan to test Einstein'S
theory. AS explained by DR.
Newell. the experiment would
involve the use Of two atomic
clocks" accurate to one-bil-
lionth of a second. One would
be put in a satellite circling
the earth at an altitude of a
couple Of hundred miles. The
other would remain on earth
as a control.
According to Einstein's
theory, the clock in the weaker
grayitational field (aloft) will
run slightly faster than the one
on the ground.
1T will be interesting if we
confirm the theory" DR.. Newell
said. IF it turns out that the
General Theory of Relatively is
disproved. it will be even more
interesting"
In another House hearing, 1t
was revealed that the Nays
Polaris submarine-carried mis-
sile is shortly coming up for
shipboard tests.
Test in Summer
Robert E. Gross, chairman
of the Lockheed Aircraft Corp,
which built the Polaris, said a
test firing from a surface ship
will take place this summer,
and from underwater next
year. This will be at least a
year ahead of schedule, he said
Mr.. Gross testimony came
before a House Armed Services
subcommittee investigating the
Defense Departments manage
ment of weapons systems.
In other news concerning the
Polaris. it was revealed that a
firing of the missile at Cape
Canaveral, Fla, yesterday had
been completely successful. II
was the first Polaris mission to
be so labeled by the Navy.
1t was reported, meanwhile
that the next Discoverer sat-
elite. to be launched in "a
month or So" will have mice
aboard, and efforts will be
made to bring them safely
back to earth.

NLRB Voids
ITU Demands
IN Two Cases

The National Labor Relations
Board has ruled against the
International Typographical
Union in cases involving two
Massachusetts, newspapers. The
board held that the union had
made demands on the news
papers in violation Of the Taft
Hartley law and thereby had
refused to bargain as required
by the law.
Involved in the cases are the
Worcester Telegram and the
Haverhill Gazette, against
which the unien called a strike
in 1857.
In a decision made public
yesterday. the board issued
tease and desist"s orders
against the union in accord
with the findings and recon1-
mendation of Reeves r. Hilton,
the trial examiner.
Demands Called Unfair
They were directed against
demands of the union that were
held in themselves to constitute
unfair labor practices. The
violations we're:
Demanding p contract calling
for jurisdiction covering many
classifications for future work
or processes.
Demanding a contract pro-
vision requiring the foreman to
be a union member and dis
elimination on the part OF the
employer in hiring.
Complaint Dismissed
The board dismissed a COM
plant of coercion of employees
AS for the demand for CLASH
fication for future work, main
issue in the strike, the examiner
in the findings sustained by the
board said:
In general the board has re-
fused to include in unit nom
existent or future job opera
lions. I cannot accept the
respondents contention that
they were doing nothing more
than bargaining on behalf OF
composing room employees for
work additionally performed by
these employees"
