Z Way Phone Talk
ReIayed by Satellite
More Tests
Set After
Echo First

HOLMDEL, N. j., Aug. 13 (AP).
Men conversed back and forth
by telephone via an artificial
satellite for the first time today.
And it appeared the first such
phone call may have been
hooked up between Texas and
Iowa rather than New Jersey
and California.
A scientist at the Bell Tele-
phone Laboratories here held a
two-way talk with a colleague
in Goldstone. Calf, for few
brief moments at 5:18 am.
(EDT. The radio signals car
rying their voices bounced off
the Echo I satellite some 1000
miles in space.
But at Dallas, Tex, the Alpha
Corp. announced it's engineers
had talked more than two hours
earlier with engineers of the
Collins Radio Corp. at Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, also using the
satellite.
Live Voices Carried
The Bell Labs telephone
hookup wasn't much of a con-
versation," a spokesman said.
Live voices were carried both
ways. The feat came just two
hours after Bell scientists sue
ceSsfully held the first two-way
communication with recordings.
The conversations opened the
way to a possible age of per-
son-to-person communication
by man-made satellite.
The first tWo-Way communi-
cation, two hours earlier, had
featured recorded messages by
President Eisenhower and SEN
ate Majority Leader johnson.
AS monitored on tape, here
is how the conversation between
the jet propulsion laboratory in
California and the Bell Lab here
sounded:
Hello. this is Bill Jakes call
ing Phil Tardoni at Jet Propul-
sion Laboratory" said the prof.
ect manager for Bell. Are you
reading me out there?"
Loud and Clear"
Yes, we're reading you loud
and clear" came the reply.
"Ah, hah! We're reading you
loud and clear" said Mr.. Jakes.
Sounds pretty good"
At that point, the balloon
travelling at $4,000 miles an
hour-paSsed over the horizon
and contact was lost.

neer in charge of the Bell Lab

the Democratic presidential
nominee. Senator Javits said
the Eisenhower administration
and many Republicans favor
boosting the wage floor and
extending coverage. He noted
also that some Democrats have
joined the fight against the
Kennedy bill.
Senator Javits said there are
differences about the scope of
minimum wage legislation, but
he tried to disassociate his wing
of the Republican Party from
the stand taken by Senator
Goldwater. Republican of Ari-
zona, who opposes any bill lib
eralizing the minimum wage
law.
Speaking for an industrial
State, Senator Javits empha-
sized the argument that liber-
alization Of the minimum wage
would help prevent low-wage
States from drawing industry
away from high-wage States.
Senator Javits spoke out as
Senate debate on the minimum
wage bill droned on with little
prospect that voting will start
before Tuesday-despite Sena-
tor Kennedy's call for an early
showdown.
Conservatives who hope to
scale down his bill made it
clear that they plan to talk
a lot longer before submitting
their proposals to test votes.

Senator Kennedy warned

did Thursday on a flying visit

Mr.. Klein charged that Sena-

FBI Probe from Pr
Events Recalled
In Smith Case

Smith on probation for three
years, after he is released from
the House of Correction.
About an hour and a half
later, the same judge and the
same prosecutor officiated in
the hearing on the assault
charges brought by the Negro
youth against the four police
officers. This time, the assist
ant States attorney was repre-
senting the complaint and was
prosecuting the four policemen.
Smiths account of what had
happened to him just outside
the Jail was supported, in part,
by Francis Porter, a reporter
for the Washington Daily News.
Porter said he saw two night
sticks "being swung down" to-
ward Smith and a failing of
fists" He said he did not know
whether Smith was handcuffed
at the time. He added that he
then saw Smith enter the Jail,
turn around and Square off" at
Sgt. Griggs, who took a swing
at him."
None of the four police Off
GERS took the stand to testify.
Their attorneys, Barnard T.
Welsh and Alger Y. Barbee, In
sisted that Smith was lying
when he said he was hand
cuffed. They said the four men
used no more force than was
necessary to subdue Smith in
view of his earlier assault on
Sgt. Griggs in the courtroom.
Although Smith stuck to his
story that he suffered head cuts
and had two stitches taken as a
result of the alleged beating,
the physician who he said had
treated him was not called as a
witness. The physician, DR.. VIII
liam Frank, told a Sentinel re.
porter after the fracas he had
taken two stitches in each of
two laceartions on Smiths head.

charges against the police Off

School to Get

Four rooms will be added to
three new classrooms and IL
brary already under construction
at the Laytonsville Elementary
School.
The additional four rooms
were approved by a 4-3 vote on
motion of Board Member Robert
Morrow at the boards meeting
S turd day. They will cost
$155,000.
The project will include new
all-purpose room, a classroom
and kitchen. In addition, the old
all-purpose room will be con-
verted to a kindergarten and
the old kindergarten and stage
will be made into two class
rooms.
The board rejected a request
by Supt. of Schools c. Taylor
Whittier for $175,000 to build a
new library and improve the
athletic field at Damascus High.
Instead, the board approved a
motion by Harold Breimyer to
appropriate funds in a future
budget for additional class
rooms. The exact amount was
not specified.
In other actions, the board
eliminated a proposed $4,000
appropriation for the new New

stead, $275,000 was approved
for a 200-student expansion, of

other schools would feel favor.

He said he took the stand

it ought to be on a representa-

and that Montgomery County
