November 21, 1853


Dear Friends:
Hayes left us Thursday morning
for his three and one-half months
temporary duty away from his
home station.
Besides our crew there were the
tanker boys as well as the main
tenance men who left at 20 of z
Thursday before light. Most of
the wives had left Topeka to spend
the months at home Some said
goodbye to their husbands when
they left their Topeka abode. You
know "Laniei" l had to be with
the old boy until the last horn
blew and / was the only female
on the flight line, seeing them de-
part.
Hayes was scheduled to be on
the flight line at three a. m. Leslie
apparently sensed that Hayes was
up to something a bit out of the
ordinary and at one o'clock she
began her antics. When she was
in her Daddy's arms she was full
of smiles and showed her 10 cute
little teeth, but the minute we put
her back in her bed she showed
her temper. Thanks to this. little
Miss we were ready far in advance.
The base had called the day be-
fore and said l had been cleared to
enter the flight line and that there
would be an escort officer to take
me on and off the line. l would
have felt real badly about getting
an officer out on that flight line
in the cold and in the middle OF
the night except that the escort
officer was Dave Baugh. If you'll
remember, he was the boy who
had been a part of the crew the
past three years and now was
getting a crew of his own and had
just left Don and Hayes since the
SAC competition. He had asked to
be the escort officer since he want
ed to see the boys off,
/ wish I could adequately picture
for you the dramatic scene that
morning. l waited in the squad
ron's office while the men in their
heavy winter flying suits and par
kas filed into the briefing room

sacks in the colorful market place
at the age of 8.
Her ambition is to become either
a school teacher or a professional
roller skater.
Margaret formerly worked in pro-
duce stands after school. Lately.
for personal reasons, she has been
unable to attend school and has
returned to the market full-time
until next semester.
'It's quiet" she says, "Nobody's
been giving me any trouble"
Trouble, when it arrives, usually
is in the form of a woman's cutting
remark or mans devious pass,
Margaret says.
There was the burly woman, a
regular customer at police head
quarters, who made an uncompli-
mentary comment while passing
Margaret's stand.

DULLES ON q. s. LEAD


Central Intelligence Director AL
len w. Dulles, testifying before a
congressional committee recently.
gave the latest U. S. Intelligence
estimate of Soviet Industrial pro-
gress. Said Dulles:
''If the Soviet industrial growth
rate persists at eight or nine per
cent per annum over the next dec
ade, as is forecast, the gap between
our two economies, by 1870 will be
dangerously narrowed unless our
own industrial growth rate is sub
stantially increased from the pres
ent pace"
Mr.. Dulles then estimated that
the rate of economic growth in the
United States in recent years had
been less than three per cent per
year. Obviously, this will have to
be increased if we are not to watch
the communist system in Russia
grow faster than ours. Dulles said
he hoped that the u. S. growth rate
will be nearer four per cent, and
that there are estimates that the
Soviet Unions growth rate will
be six per cent, rather than the
higher figure of eight or nine per
cent. If this is true, Dulles esti-
mates that by 1865 the gross ma
tional product of the Soviet Union
will be only slightly more than fif-
ty per cent of that of the United
States.
He points out that this does not
tell the whole story, for the So
viets put more of their gross ma
tional product into defense and in
to military ends, which may give
them a military advantages
though their gross national pro-
duct is not equal to ours.
Speaking of the industrial pro-
ducts field only, Dulles reveals that
the estimate is that the Soviets
will continue to grow by eight or
nine per cent per year. If they do
this, he says, they "could attain,
by 1870, about sixty per cent of
our industrial production, provid-
ed our industrial growth rate av-
erages As per cent per annum."
Dulles says that Khrushchev
thinks the U. S. growth rate will
not be higher than two per cent per
annum, and that if this is true, by
1870 the Soviet's industrial pro-
duction would be more than eighty
per cent of ours-if they maintain
the rate of growth forecast.
In his concluding statement,
Dulles said: "The communists are
not about to inherit the world eco
nomically. But while we debunk
the distortions of their propagan-

.IF PEACE EVER COMES

Some cynlcS nave observed CnaC CnlS cOun-
try could hardly afford a. change for the bet
ter in the world situation that would make
possible massive cuts in military and related
spending The economy is SO dependent on
$40 billion plus defense budgets, the argu-
ment runs, that terrific depression would
result.
Nations Business has gone into the mat
ter, and comes up with an utterly different
view. 1t says that the results of a softening
of cold war preSSureS would, among other
things, include: A rise in consumer spending
far exceeding the cut in defense spending; a
terrific upsurge in spending for new plants
and equipment; more income for everyone to
spend and invest; higher living standards,
lower taxes and large labor force.
1t adds that some industries and individ-
uals would be hurt tempOrarily-"But soon
these industries and all the rest of us would
be wondering how we ever paid such high
taxes and denied ourselves SO many of the
benefits our productive capacity makes poss-
ible."
No one knows when, if ever, it will be
possible to cut the defense budget. But if
that happy day ever arrives, there will be
no justification for "peace scare" Peace is
the best thing that can happen to any nation.

LONG WAY TO GO
During his American Visit, Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev made is clear that one of
his primary goals in Soviet economy which
will out-produce that of the United States.
And the intimation was that this will be ac
complished in the foreseeable future.
If the Premier is correct, he will have pro-
duced a miracle of the first water.
u. S. News and World Report has sum-
med up comparative data, based on official
sources, concerning pay and output here and
in the Soviet Union. Highlights:
Average U. S. factory pay is $4,700-in
Russia it is about $1,000, based on buying
power The average American farmer pro-
duces enough for himself and 20 others, with
much to spare as the huge farm surpluses
prove-while the average Russian farmer
produces enough for himself and only four
others, with nothing to spare. And the out
put of the u. S. factory worker is 212 to three
times that of his Soviet equivalent.
The magazine says: $50 the Khrushchev
problems boils down to this: inefficient farm
ing, meaning limited supply of workers for
other jobs a shortage of modern equip
ment, as well as manpower, for non-farm
production :. -. low productivity of the work
force -. defense needs that strain the coun-
try's capacity to produce

Mrs. Khrushchev held a for
NAL press conference yesterday,
the first in her SO years.
Barely flinching at the per-
sonal questions which Russians
find SO distasteful, talked for
more than an hour about her
family. her past, her tastes and
her present living conditions.
She also took the opportunity
to correct several misconcep-
tons about the Khrushchevs.
Speaking through an inter-
prefer. she said she would make
"no pronouncements on the
policy of our state" but would
be happy to give "any small
bits of information"
In the course of the ques-
