in common use a machine capable
of understanding and carrying out
verbal orders. The classroom of
the future will have tape machines
and headphones. The student can
talk to the teacher on his inter-
com without disturbing the rest
of the class. If teacher wants to
refer to a library book, he will
simply consult his 'television di-
rectory," and dial a number. In
stantly microfilm edition of the
book will appear on the television
screen. AS for communication in
the future, a one-inch cube that
can choose one signal out of a
million will make possible a world
wide system where each person
may be called no matter where
he is-on land, sea, in the air, or
even in outer space. These are a
few of the wonders.

All right. But why? We're already

is whether it's going to rain.

Should We Stop A-Bomb Tests?
Some well-meaning Americans
have swallowed the Communists
bait. The Communist game is to
bring about an agreement to aban-
don nuclear bomb tests-an agree
ment which we would certainly
not violate but which Moscow
would violate at will. The Soviets
prove the point of their insincerity
by always objecting to any plan
for effective inspection.
1t is known that Soviet agents
played a part in several Western
countries in lining up professional
groups to raise an alarm about
"fall-out" and the dangers to hui
man health that supposedly re-
suit from the bomb tests. Despite
the testimony of competent sci
entists that radicactivity released
by the tests is far from dangerous
in any way and despite data that
the human race has always been
subject to far more radioactivity
from natural causes than the tests
have yielded, there has been
waged a campaign of terror.
The next step in the Commu-
mist scheme would be to outlaw"
all nuclear bombs-another agree
ment which we would keep but
which Moscow would not keep. If
nuclear weapons were outlawed, the
Soviets would rule the world.
Aside from skulduggery of hidden
stores of bombs they have bigger
conventional forces than all
their adversaries could quickly
mobilize. The Soviets would then
easily win world domination.
Communist influence has reached
into every Allied country and into
every national legislature to win
support of the test ban. The cru
SADIE to end nuclear tests should be
thoroughly investigated and the
true facts brought QUITO the end
that our people will not continue
to be fooled by this propaganda.
In The Senate Chamber-The
Senate received two messages from
the President. They had to do with
our agreements with the United
Kingdom and France for coopera-
ton in the uses of atomic energy
for mutual defense purposes.
The Senate received from the
President the nominations of
Thomas S. Gates, Jr, to be Deputy
Secretary of Defense, and Joseph
V. Charyk to be Assistant Secre-
tary Of the Air Force.
There was debate on the Inter-
national Health and Medical Re-
search Act, which I co-sponsored.

MIG Attacks U. s, Navy Patrol Plane

YOKOSUKA, Japan, tR - A U. s. Navy plane crew told today how Communist MIG fighters raked their patrol plane with 15 to 20 bursts of machinegun fire and sent it limping home with two of it's four engines out and one of the IA crewmen wounded.
 The airmen told a news con- ference two "or possibly three' Red-starred jets - their nation ality still a mystery - had swooped down suddenly on the turbo-prop PAM Mercutor while it was over international waters off the east coast of North Korea Tuesday.
 The tail gun was knocked out and the gunner wounded on the second of six Communist runs be- fore he could open fire. The planes two other 20-mm machine guns were unable to fire because of missing parts.
 The attack was broken off as the plane started to limp back to Japan. It was met by two Air Force Sabre jet fighters that an- swered it's call for help, but the MICS had vanished long before.
 Rear Adm. Frederick s. With ington, commander of U. s. Naval forces in Japan, said emphatically U. S. patrols would continue in the area.
 "We are not going to admit that the Sea of Japan is a Russian Lake," he declared.
 The attack was started at an all titude of 1000 feet. The incident, the Pentagon said, took place at 12:36 pm. Tuesday, Japanese time.
 Similar incidents have been oc- curing in the Far East area for years.

 On the flight today Noel Wien will arrive on a 4O-passenger, pressurized turbo-prop jet pow cred by two powerful Dart en- zines cruising at well over 300 miles per hour, which will make the flying time to Nome under two hours.

Berserk Cunnan Wanted Duel With Police Captain

CHARLESTON, H., LR - A ber- serk gunman who had held his half-sister hostage while a force Of lawmen ringed his house laid down his arms and walked out without gunfire yesterday.
 Kenneth E. Adkins, 22, also released his half-sister, Mrs Myra Irene Kennedy, 34, of Paris, with out harm.
 The end of the tense vigil around the white frame house came after Marvin Bell, a lawyer, talked with Adkins for about 10 minutes, explaining his rights.
 It came also as the force of law men were loading up for blast on the house with tear gas. Authorities said they felt Adkins was giving them a run-around and might keep the community in turmoil.
 His desperate strategy was aimed at forcing a gun duel to death with a Charleston police captain, Logan Cox.
 He blamed Cox for ''three- fourths of my trouble and his parents - MT. and Mrs. Walter Adkins - for the other fourth.
 "They never spanked me when I needed discipline" Adkins said. "They always called the police, and Cox usually was the one that came.
 ''You can't raise children unless you discipline them yourself m not call the police to do it for you"
 Before he gave up, Adkins had demanded that Cox face up to him in western-style shoot down.

Gromyko Granted Days Delay
By JOHN M. HIGHToWER

GENEVA, tR - Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko today asked and got a 24-hour delay in giving his answer to a new Vest ern plan for a Berlin stopgap settlement. This averted a break down in the foreign ministers meeting
 | Western ministers agreed to delay in the hope that Gromyko will negotiate on their proposal It offered him a compromise, face-saving deal, which would open the way to a summit con- ference.
 Under the Western plan, it was disclosed, the Western powers de clared their readiness to have German personnel operate check points on the Berlin supply lines. This is an offer to accept dealings with Communist East German au- thorities more or less as agents of the Soviet Union.
 The West refuses to recognize the East German regime. A ma jor point in the current crisis is the Soviet threat to turn over to the East Germans control of the lines supplying the British, French and U. s. garrisons in West Der lin, 11O miles inside East Ger many.

China Floods Expected To Slow Reds Plans

TOKYO, LR - China's age-old flood scourge is dealing a heavy blow to the Communist regimes plans to continue the "great leap forward" in 1859.
 Torrential rains have been lash ing south and central China for a week. Broadcasts admit floods have inundated 900 square miles in Kwantung Province alone, but mobilization of some three million persons to combat the menace in dicates the flooded area is much greater.
 Peiping Radio said harvesting of crops is going ahead normally in other sections of the vast coun- try. But weather forecasts in To- kyo reported that the warm air front which brought the down pour to Kwantung has moved to- ward the thickly settled lower Yangtze Valley.
 The rains also have brought death and destruction to the adja- cent British colony of Hong Kong, Tropical thunderstorms hay e killed AS Chinese there, and 5000 are homeless.

Alaska's Courts Set in Motion By Appellate Ruling

WASHINGTON, R - Govern ment officials here say that U. S. court of appeals decison yesterday automatically sets in motion Alaska's plans for complete state court system of it's own.
 The Ninth Circuit Court in San Francisco ruled that it has no jur- isdiction in appeals under the present court setup in the State of Alaska.
 The Alaska Legislature at a ses- sion earlier this year adopted a law providing that if the San Fran cisco court made that ruling, the new state would start at once on the task of creating eight new state trial courts located at stra- tegic cites, and a three-member Alaskan Supreme Court to handle from these state courts.
 This court system is authorized by Alaska's State Constitution.
 When Alaska became the 49th state last Januarp 3, the four old territorial federal courts became interim state courts.
