Star Stan Writer

President Eisenhower and his
top Pentagon advisers today
approved a revamping of some
defense programs to give the
Air Force 18 more Atlas mis-
siles and the Navy more Polaris
missiles and submarines from
which to fire them.
Defense Secretary Gates an
nounced the action at the
White House immediately after
a conference with the President
in which he was Joined by Gen.
Nathan F. Twining, chairman
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff !;
Deputy Defense Secretary
Douglas and Assistant Defense
Secretary Lincoln.
Mr.. Gates said the missile
increases would be financed, for
the most part at least, by cut
ting back on some other Air
Force and Navy spending. He
said some additional funds
might be needed, but he did
not think it would require add
ing very much to the total de-
fense budget.
Mr.. Gates described the
White House action as "in the

reprogramming which the Air

testimony before the House

Key Democratic leaders today
viewed Senator Kennedy's VIC
tory in the Wisconsin primary
as an important but far from
decisive step in the fight for
the party's presidential nom
ination.
Most spokesmen for uncom-
mitted delegations and rival
candidates agreed that the re-
suits of the Massachusetts Sem
ator's battle with Senator Hum
phrey strengthened the prob
ability that no candidate would
win a decisive advantage before
the convention meets in Los
Angeles in July.
Gov. Williams of Michigan,
however, gave Senator Kennedy
a strong plug, saying he was
impressed by the voting ap-
peal of this otherwise qualified
Democrat. But he added the
presidential primaries do not
decide the nomination"
See No Big Change
Leaders of three other un-
committed delegationS-Penn-
sylvania, Illinois and Colorado
said the Wisconsin results
had not significantly altered
anyone's presidential stock in
their States.
Their appraisal was at vari-
ance with one recently at
tributed to Paul M. Butler,
chairman of the Democratic
National Committee.
After a recent background
dinner with reporters, Mr..
Butler was reported to have
expressed the view that Senator
Kennedy would have the nomi-
nation all but nailed down if
he won as much as 81 per cent
of the Wisconsin Democratic
vote and carried six of the 10
districts. The Senator polled
Sc per cent of the vote and
carried six districts.

ager of the campaign to draft
Adlai E. Stevenson said it "in-
creaSes the probability" that he
again would be the nominee.
The one hard fact that was
underScored in Wisconsin was
that Senator Kennedy will have
to fight all the way for the
nomination.
A companion fact, observers
agreed, was that religion was
an issue in the primary and
that Senator Kennedy, a Ro-
man Catholic, will have to face
this issue in other contests.
The next big test will come
May 10 in the preferential pri-
mary in West Virginia where
Senator Kennedy again is pitted
against Senator Humphrey of
Minnesota, a Protestant.
Many Crossed Over
The Wisconsin showing by
Senator Humphrey was re-
garded here as slowing the
bandwagon sentim e n t that
seemed to be developing in
favor of Senator Kennedy after
the big vote he piled up in New

Coming on the heels of his

But Wisconsin was not a
spectacular triumph for him.
He had said that winning six

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

How are your illusions hold
ing up these days? Not too well,
I suspect. Dreams of peaceful
coexistence with Khrushchev's
Russia received a battering at
the Paris summit meeting. Cas-
tro's Cuba has gone sour, to
the disheartenment of many
idealistS who saw in his revolu-
ton the hope of a new era in
Latin America. And now, even
in the colorful story of our own
past, the illusions and tradi-
tions millions Of Americans
have lived with are being shat
tered-by those honored GUS
todians Of our history. the edi-
tors of American Heritage.
In the current issue of this
sparkling magazine of history
Peter Lyon has a merry time
debating the most cherished
stories of the Old West. In an
article called THE Wild, Wild
West, Lyon tells us that
Wild Bill Hickok, hero of count
less books and TV episodes, was
a marshal who wore the star
only to protect the extortions
of professional gamblers and
saloon keepers" who shot and
killed his own deputy, and was,
all in all. a liar, professional
gambler, cheat and killer.
Whats more fitting for such
a man." asks Lyon. than to
enshrine him on television dur
ing the children's hour?"
And then there are the two
"regnant superheroeS Of the
televised Wild West" Wyatt
carp and Bat Masterson. One
of Earp's remarkable talents,
according to MasterSon's ac-
count, was the ability to kill a
coyote with a Colt As at 400
yards. Such skill" notes
American Heritage, calls for
some respectful analysis.
A pistol will. of course, not
carry so far directly: the
marksman must use Kentucky
windage. i. e., he must aim ap-
Ipreciably above his target so
that his bullet will carry. Mas
terson said that luck figures
largely in such shooting If in
stead of largely he had said
completely he would have
come closer to that coyote"
Other figures in the pantheon
of our national heroes who fare
badly under Author Lyons
probing scrutiny are Billy the
Kid, Jesse James, Belle Starr
and Calamity Jane.
