Taipei Marks
II Revolution

TAIPEI, Formosa. oct. 10
(AP) Nationalist China today
celebrated the anniversary of
the 1911 revolution that ended
more than 1900 years Of i'm
perial rule on the Chinese
mainland.
The celebrations are known
as the Double Tenth" - SO
named because Chinese indie
pendence day falls on the 10th
day Of the 10th month.
The anniversary - the 10th
President Chang Kai-shek has
observed on Formosa - went
without Communist Smelling of
Quemoy, as has been the Red
practice on even numbered
days.
100000 Parade
The President led the island
in celebrating. He received the
highest officials of state. Con-
gratulatory letters arrived from
foreign chiefs of state, in
GLIDING President Eisenhower.
Some 100000 civilians partic-
ipated in a mammoth parade.
Nine. Chang Kai-shek and
the wives of Chinese and
United States officials visited
military hospitals, distributing
gifts.
The Generalissimo issued q
statement predicting the Ma
tionalists will wipe out the
mainland's Communist regime
and restore China's position as
a free, independent country
next year.
Next year," he said, "our
task will be to rid the mainland
of the Communists"
Pledge to U. s. Recalled
He envisaged a mainland up
rising against the Peiping re-
gime coupled with q military
offensive from Formosa, which
he said, he is determined to
lead.
President Chang renounced
the use of force as the principal
means of recovering the main
land in a Joint communique he
and former United States Sec
|retary of State Dulles signed In
October. 1858. But repeated Ma
tionalist announcements since
then have been to the effect
that nothing would prevent the
Chang forces from supporting
q mainland revolt.

lunik Turns,
Starts Back

LONDON, Oct. 10 (AP).-
RuSsia's moon-probing Lunik
III wheeled and started back
toward earth today.
Moscow radio said that at its
fartheSt point from earth its
speed dropped to 868 miles per
hour-comparable to the speed
of q Jet plane.
It's speed is increasing on the
return trip.
Soviet astronomical expert
Ari Sternfeld, the broadcast
said, estimates that by tomor-
row the space vehicle will pick
up its full speed again under
the influence Of earth's gravity.
He was quoted as saying the
trajectory Of Lunik III under
went considerable changes on
the earth-to-moon part of its
"trip, due to the mutual action
of the gravitational fields Of
the earth and the moon, but
the moon stopped influencing
the orbit as soon as the vehicle
left the moons vicinity.
"These changes we're fore
seen with great accuracy by the
scientists in their calculations,
the broadcast said.
Discounting accidents such as
collisions with meteorites, the
life expectation Of Lunik III
is unlimited, Mr.. Sternfeld said.
From time to time the sta
ton will pass in the vicinity of
the moon," the broadcast
added.
Theoretically, 1t will come
closest Of all, some 5000 miles,
in the beginning Of January,
1857. However, successful OBJ
servations Of the moon can be
carried out much earlier. dur
ing the 9th, 18th, 25th, 4lst,
seth and 10th revolutions Of
the station, when its distance
from the moon will vary from
5000 miles to 10000 miles and
even less"
The Soviets have said Lunik
III will cover its orbit In Is
days. BY this reckoning the 9th
revolution will come next Feb
ruary.
v. I. Siforov, a corresponding
member Of the USSR Academy
Of Sciences, said on Moscow
radio that Lunik III, at its far
thest point, was 291 $50 miles
from earth.
