British Pickup
Rocket Signals

LONDON, Oct. 5 (AP).-The
British radio telescope at Jod.
rell Bank picked up signals
again today from the Russian
lunar laboratory. The contact
was made at 1910 pm. (8:4(
am. EDIT.
The radio telescope, with it'
great saucer-shaped antenna
is helping the Russians find out
whether the rocket completes
its trip around the back OF the
moon.
First signals were recorded
yesterday after Moscow had
cabled Jodrell Bank informa-
ton of the expected position OF
the rocket.
Signals from the rockets two
transmitters are triggered on
for periods of two to four hours
daily by radio control from the
earth. When it is not trans
hitting, the flying lab stores
its findings on magnetic tape
for later relay.
The telescope today picked
I'D strong signals from both
the transmitters. The bowl
like antenna was pointing
southeast and at a point about
5 degrees above the horizon
when the contact was estab-
lished.
Meanwhile, a Soviet scientist
told the Moscow radios home
service listeners that the new
rocket would undertake some
thing new in principle.
Prof. I. A. Khvostikov said
measurements made by the in
struments on the trip to the
moon could be repeated on the
return journey toward the
earth.
This double check, made
after a comparatively short
lapse of time and near the same
points in space, he said, will
make. it possible to determine
whether fluctuations in radia-
ton Of magnetic intensities are
likely to be permanent phe-
nomena or shortlived occur
rences.

In his attack on the admin
iStration's economic policies
Mr.. Biemiller singled out tight
money, high interest rates and
attempts to balance the Fed

put and income"
He said, These policies, whose
purpose is to restrict the de-
mand for goods and curtail the
creation Of new jobs. are being
pursued vigorously, despite the
persistence Of relatively high
employment"
JObIess Level Rising
The AFL-CIO official said
that in the recovery periods
after both the 1953-54 and
1957-58 economic slumps the
Nation was left with still higher
levels of joblesSness.
In 1888 the unemploy-
ment rate was 81 per cent OF
the civilian labor force but in
recent months, with the econ
omy in full gear after the latest
recession, it has been 81 per
cent, Mr.. Biemiller testified. He
added this latest figure does
not reflect any layoffs caused
by the steel strike.
A principal cause Of the
higher rate, he said, has been
the failure of the economy to
expand fast enough to provide
new jobs for new workers just
entering the labor force and for
those displaced by rising pro-
J, ductivity and chronological
changes In some industries.

2S-DAY CYCLE
Why Moon
Turns One
Face to Us
BY the Associates Press

Here's why we never see the
far side Of the moon-the side
that Soviet scientists hope to
photograph for the first time
with their new space mes
senger:
The moon revolves around
the earth once every 20 days.
1t also rotates on its own axis
IN a similar period.
Thus, the same face-the
from. side-is always presented
to the earth as the moon
swings around this planet.
Because of this slow rotation
OF the moon, the lunar day is
equal to IA days on earth and
the lunar night is equal to II
earth nights.
What's on the hidden side
Of the moon? Scientists, OF
course. do not know yet. But
most Of them suspect that the
hidden side will be much like
the side we can see.
This shows a somewhat
pock-marked satellite, rent by
great craters, dotted with great
mountains and perhaps COW
cred by gray dust.
This much can be said with
certainty for both sides:
The moon is a world without
air, without wind or weather,
dawn or twilight, smells or
sounds. This is because it has
no atmosphere to speak of.
And because its two sides
are alternately bathed in IA
days" Of sunlight and then
darkened for another two
weeks, it's a world that is al-
ternately fried and frozen in
temperatures ranging from 215
degrees above to 240 degrees
below zero-

Little joe
Rocket Scars
40 Miles Up
By the Associated Press

A Little Joe booster rocket
has turned in a big perform
ance for space scientists.
The rocket yesterday hoisted
= dummy space capsule with
an inert escape rocket system
to an altitude of 40 miles above
the Atlantic Ocean. They were
Intentionally destroyed accord
ing to plan about ~ minutes
after launching.
The National Aeronautics
and Space Administration
stamped the test successful.
The launching from the
Wallop's Island, Va, research
station was the first in a series
for the Little Joes. The dummy
capsule was only a boiler plate
mock-up of the type that will
carry man into space.
Neither the capsule nor the
escape system was inStru-
mented for yesterdays test.
The Little Joe is a 24-foot,
20, 000-pound rocket. The 10
foot capsule it carries weighs
one ton and is Surmounted by
a 16-foot escape rocket. The
escape rocket is designed to
pull the capsule several thou
sand feet above the main rocket
If something goes wrong during
a launching. It then is sup
posed to open parachutes and
safely lower the capsule to
earth.
The entire Little Joe test
apparatus is so feet high ano
6l2 feet in diameter at its
thickeSt point. 1t weighs 49,
900 pounds.
The Atlas rocket has been
designated to hurl the first
American spaceman into orbit
probably in 1861. The Little
Joe is being used in unnamed
non-orbit tests.
An escape rocket blew of
ahead Of time and lobbed q
dummy capsule into the surf
of the Wallops Island station
when preparations were being
made August 81 to fire a Little
Joe. The booster rocket was
not fired.

electrically charged particles in
outer space and their nature
In describing the launching
early yesterday morning, the
Soviet news agency Tass said;
Aboard the rocket is an auto
matte interplanetary station
1.-The launching was made with
the aid of a multistage rocket
The last stage Of the rocket at
tanned the prescribed speed and
dropped the interplanetary sta
ton on the required orbit"
Jodrell Picks Up Signals
Calling the space vehicle an
"interplanetary station" created
surprise in Western scientific
circles.
DR.. Fred L. Whipple, director
Of the Smithsonian Astrophys-
ical Observatory in Cambridge,
Mass, said Western scientists
use the term to describe a big
satellite which can be. used to
land on, live on and launch
other rockets from.
Britain's giant>radio telescope
at Jodrell Bank picked up sig
mails from the Soviet station
within minutes after Moscow
sent a telegram pinpointing its
position.
The signals sounded for 20
minutes and then stopped, as
though they had been switched
of.
DR.. ]. @. Davies, Jodrell
Banks senior lecturer, said the
signals were different from
previous ones. They were two
tone, with half-second intervals
between the bleeps."
MuscOvites Elated
The latest moon rocket sent
Muscovites into acstasy. Despite
the below zero temperature
they rushed out to newsstands
hoping to get details of the
launching announced over the
radio. But they were disap-
pointed. The news broke too
late to make the Sunday morn
ing editions.
Even strangers congratulated
one another in the streets on
the great achievement.
This is something you
Americans can't do as well as
we do" one hotel employee told

vehicle yesterday.
But they withheld any big
slaps on the back until they
see how the space traveller per-
forms.
There was no attempt TO dis
credit the Soviet launching it.
self-only a wait and see atti-
tude on its performance The
United States space officials
did not know for sure just what
kind Of a vehicle had beer
launched, where it was to g
and what it was to do. Then
information was limited almost
entirely to that given out by
the Russians-and that wa,
vague.
Await Data Report
T. Keith Glennan, head OF
the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, said he
had received word Of the
launching with considerable
interest. He added:
I'VE recognize the signi-
ficance Of this effort to send a
probe around the moon and ex-
tend our congratulations. With
the rest Of the world scientific
community we shall await the
data from this new probe in
its journey between the earth
and the moon"
There was a question as to
whether the vehicle was meant
to make one or more circles
around the moon or merely in
clude it in a big orbit around
the earth.
First Russian reports de-
scribed the vehicle as an
"interplanetary station" that
would whirl around the moon
and then go into a cigar
shaped orbit around the earth
Called Fancy Term
Moscow Planetarium experts
said the vehicle was in fact
only another earth satellite
that for one circuit would in
Guide the moon within its fight,
DR.. Fred L. Whipple, director
OF the Smithsonian Astrophysi-
cal Observatory at Cambridge,
Mass. questioned use of the
term "interplanetary station"
Il suspect they are using a
fancy term to give people the
impression they have something
they do not" DR.. Whipple said.
He said Western scientists
use the term to describe a big
satellite which can be used to
land on. live on and launch
other rockets.
DR.. Whipple said it was his
impression the Russians put
into orbit, not a space station.
but a rocket around the moon.
Tracking Stations Alert
NASA scientists hope to make
contact with the vehicle today
through the Goldstone tracking
station in the Southern Califor-
mia desert. A radio telescope
there is capable of picking up
signals from as far as 100000
miles in space.
NASA's minitrack radio
tracking stations in various
parts of the world were alerted
to be on the watch.
President Eisenhower, vaca-
tioning in California, was being
kept informed of the, latest So
Wet venture. His science advis-
ers were to keep him posted on

Gals witness new Russian ac@

said the news had been "re-
ceived here with consider
able interest. CONSERVATION
might have been a better word.
At present, the key to the
problem lies in thrust-the
measure of a rockets power.
The Soviet Union has thrust;
we do not. AS DR.. s. Fred
Singer Of the University Of
Maryland pointed out last
week, Russia has a SINGLE
chamber liquid-fueled engine
capable of generating 100000
pounds thrust. The best we
can muster today in a single
chamber is 165, 900 pounds, and
even our three-engined Atlas
develops only about $4,000.
Other Red Gains Seen
It may be, as DR.. Singer has
suggested, that the 100000
FOUNDER is all that Russia has.
But this is enough.
Most experts agree with the
oft-repeated statement Of space
officials that "the Soviet Union
is ahead in some areas and we
are ahead in others" They
contend, however, that this is
misleading, because the Rus
slams are ahead in the one field
that counts.

Alexandra Ananoff, a leading

said. "the Soviet rocket proves
they can fire moon rocket with

The Russians indicated some
control of the new space sta
ton could be exercised from
stations on earth. They an
nounced, for example, that the
apparatus carried by the third
Soviet space rocket" would be
switched on" for two hours
today e am. to 10 am. EST
They predicted that the sta
tion-the third Soviet cosmic
rocket shot aimed at the moon
would stay aloft for q long
time because it will approach
no closer than 1000 kilometers
(1,240 niles to the earth.
Transmitting Data
The flying station was re-
ported loaded with scientific
equipment but the official an
nouncements gave no details
on it.
Y. K. Federov. member of
the Soviet Academy Of Sciences,
said. 1.-THE tremendous amount
of data gathered by the many
measuring devices is being reg
ularly transmitted back to
earth"
An announcement said the
satellite can broadcast two to
four hours a day, drawing its
power from solar batteries
which the suns ray recharge.
Just what do the Russians
hope to learn?
Soviet Physicist Lev Ponaye-
ton of Leningrad said data from
the unseen side of the moon
will help to determine its shape
and distribution of mass. He
said this would be of tremen-
dous help in manned space
flights.
Felix Ziegel, scientific COM
mentator for Moscow radio,
said the projectile will not make
an extensive study Of the moon.
This will be done later, he said,
from q rocket timed to orbit
around the moon.
The original announcement
said the space station is on q
course that should take 1t
around the moon at a distance
of about 10000 kilometers
(about 5000 niles.
