'Autoist' Aided
By Policeman
Up to q Point

NEW YORK. May IT, (AP).
up to a point everything
went just fine for 20-year-old
William Fletcher.
He had stopped Patrolman
Dugald Wade on the street,
told him he was locked out Of
his car and asked for help.
Patrolman Wade, the very
model of police courtesy, betook
himself to a store for a piece
of wire and finally, with much
polite hufing and putting, man
aged to open the door, while
young Fletcher stood by.
Fletcher expressed his thanks
and prepared to drive of.
At that point the patrolman
asked to see his registration
and license. 81,
Fletcher was held in $1,000
bail yesterday on a vehicle

rough area they will hit. This
will trigger off the retaliatory
planes. But when an active. de-
fense is possible or when ex-
tensive civil defense measures
are organized. greater accu.
racy will be needed. !,
Presumably the complement
tary radars will be added then.
Meanwhile the Air Force
would rather spend available
money for more planes and
missiles and for the Midas
satellite which, two or three
years from now, will detect the
satellites on their launching,
giving even more warning time
and increased coverage and
more accurate tracking.
E There are critics, particularly
in other services, who say
BMEWS is not worth the
money under any conditions.
They point out that if the
Soviets attack with Polaris-
type, submarine-carried mis-
SileS from of the East and
West coasts. BMEWS will be
useless. They say the stations
themselves will be the first mis-
sile targets. They say that
neither civil defense nor anti
missile devices will ever be de-
veloped well enough to make
accurate tracking necessary. It
won't matter where the missiles
are headed if a simple, cheap
radar screen could report they
are coming in the general
direction of the United States
And the critics say BMEWs
can be jammed by the enemy
or confused by the aurora
borealiS.
Air Force spokesmen reply:
| other systems must be de.
vised to detect submarine mis-.
sile attacks - but meanwhile
ICBM routes of attack mus
be covered. If a BMEWS sta.
ton is hit, then that would bt
a fine warning of a raid. anc
SAC planes could be launched
If we don't have civil or mis-
sile defense today. then NOR
money should be spent de
veloping them. And they sa.
the BMEWS system has beef
built reasonably jam and cG1
fusion-proof. -

Shipped Piece
Of Sheet Metal
Wins Art Awurd

VISAL1A, Calf. May II
AP).-A Enthusiastically shipped
piece of sheet metal labeled
'Peterfd Cat-$350" won a
ribbon Of merit at the annual
sidewalk exhibit of the Tulars
County Art League last week
end.
Nothing out of the ordinary
about that, you say? Well,
there wasn't, until it was spied
by Murrell Twibell, courthouse
superintendent of buildings and
grounds.
Mr.. Twibell remembered that
his janitorial staff didn't think
too much of the art exhibit
cluttering the court house side
walk. and also felt he'd seen
that hunk of sheet iron some
where before.
He had. 1t was a piece of an
old locker door from which the
caretakers frequently had
shipped pieces to make sundry
repairs. 1t happened to look
something like the Silhouette
Of a cat, so the janitors painted
it black, labeled it and put It
in the show.

SYMPHONY BALL TO RESTORE
FINANCIAL HARMONY

The National Symphony Orchestra was financially
out of tune some $24,600 this season.
But that deficit will be wiped out when the annual
symphony ball is held in October Mrs. DeForrest Van

At least one unit commander

Navy fighter squadron under
the North American Air De-

The Army in Washington

were actually summoned to. re.

But key men were checked by

A paradox Of slum clearance
clearing q slum and creating

night by Leon Calhoun. past
president Of the Southwest
Civic Association. at a meeting
of the LeDroit Civic Associa-
ton.
Mr.. Calhoun, who has follow
ed the Southwest redevelop-
ment plans from their incep-
ton, said the Government
made little or no provision for
relocation of families displaced
by redevelopment. He said the
Government thus directly con-
tributed to the overcrowding
and deterioration Of other
neighborhoods.
economic discrimination
against low-income groups is
apparent in the Southwest re-
development area, where the
emphasis has been not on low
cost housing but on high-rent
apartment buildings. he
charged. Mr.. Calhoun had
urged housing for different in
come groups.
He asked the association to
unite with similar groups in
opposing redevelopment as long
as the Government does not
make adequate provision for re-
location of displaced families.

home Of James Dickerson, 410
