Weather Satellite Sends
Back Pictures of Earth

WASHINGTON, R The
space agency today released new
pictures from the Tiros l weather
satellite showing great stretches
of the area around the Mediter-
ranean Sea and one view of the
Gulf of st. Lawrence.

smaller area but more detail.
None of the pictures given out

Two Large Planes Limp
In from Honolulu Run

SAN FRANCISCO, R-A CHA
Globemaster bounced safely into
Hamilton AFB, 20 miles north of
here, Thursday night - ION about
an engine and half"
Less than 80 minutes later, an
other huge Military Air Transport
Service plane, a CHI Constella-
ton, landed at Travis AFB, across
the bay, with one of its four en-
gines out. Both planes were in
bound from Hawaii.
The Globemaster, four-engine
craft, carried II crewmen. The
Constellation carried "a passen-
gers and crew.
It's not uncommon for the big
planes to continue safely to their
destination with one engine gone.
But the boys in the control towers
had their fingers crossed as they
talked the Globemaster home.
Capt. James R. Kolb, the Globe
master pilot, jettisoned IA tons of
cargo and asked for help.
The Coast Guard sent two planes
to meet the rapidly descending
plane. The crew prepared to
ditch but the Globemaster re-
ported it was holding altitude at
1,500 feet and could make Hamil-
ton.

Citizen Rebels
Against Census

DETROIT, Up - "The govern
ment has never done anything for
me. Why should do anything for
the government" says George
KIDD. And that includes answer
ing census takers questions.
KIDD, who lives in suburban
Sterling, his wife and Janet WI
kovich got into fuss this week
when Mrs. Vukovich called at the
KIDD home to pick UP a census
form.
Mrs. KIDD answered the door.
II asked Mrs. Vukovich to sit
in the kitchen but she plunked
herself down in the living room,' y
said Mrs. KIDD. ~ answered some
of her questions, but her attitude
provoked me-"
KIDD became angry when Mrs.
Vukovich asked him about bath
room facilities in his home, then
handed him an additional census
form to fill out. He escorted Mrs.
Vukovich to the door and tossed
the form out after her.
Mrs. Vukovich, her supervisor,
Helene Zimmerman, and a state
policeman went to the KIDD home
the following day and were or
dered out. They left.
Mrs. Zimmerman said that
when she told KIDD he was liable
to 500 fine and go days in jail
for not answering he told her:
go ahead and prosecute"
The matter has been turned
over to the Regional Census Di-
rector, who says records show that
in ITO years, the Census Bureau
hasn't had to prosecute anyone
for refusing to answer questions.

However, the Governor said in
New York Thursday, the heavy
Democratic vote in Wisconsin
Tuesday showed "the Republicans
are a minority party in terms of
registration. We might as well
face it."

"This is an effort by a certain

New York, Dec. 23.-Borough
President Hulan E. Jack went be-
fore the grand jury with his bank
records yesterday. He was ques-
toned for more than two hours
and then excused, subject to re-
call. 1t was his third appearance.
Once again, the Borough Presi-
dent was silent as he left the Dis
trict Attorneys office. But his
lawyer, Harry J. Halperin, said
the records produced for the jury
"prove conclusively that Mr.. Jack
is an honest man."
The grand jury is investigating
circumstances under which the
Borough President permitted Sid
ney J. Ungar, lawyer anr real es-
tate operator, to pay for the re-
modelling of his rented apartment.
Both Mr.. Jack and Mr.. Ungar
have said the $500 involved was
advanced as loan. The apart
ment at as West 10th Street, was
redone at a time when Mr.. Ungar
was seeking to be approved as the
sponsor of a $2S, 100000 city slum-
clearance project.
The record, however, supports
Mr.. Jacks contention that when
the Ungar bid came before the
Board of Estimate more than a
year later he voted to shelve it
indefinitely. This was tantamount
to killing it.
Mr.. Ungar was before the grand
jury four times last week, but has
not been summoned this week, al
though he has been on call.

His bullet-riddled body was
found by federal and state officers

miles west of Foplarville.
A Pearl River County grand
jury was called to investigate the
lynching in November but ad-
journed without returning any in
dictments.
Brooks said the federal grand
jury will be "more of an investi-

He said, "This is not like an

Borough President Jack, nor
mally = voluble, friendly man, was
somber and silent again yester-
day - he left the District At
torney's office. He had been
questioned before the grand jury
for two hours and fifteen minutes.
He had arrived with three fat
manila envelopes Of records, but
left without them. Presumably
they were kept as exhibits.
With newspaper, radio and tele-
vision reporters crowding in, Mr..
Halperin announced that his client
had been excused but was holding
himself available for possible re-
call. He stressed that the finan-
cial records that were produced
had told the story.
The Borough President, whose
salary is $4,000 a year, has de-
scribed himself as zone of the
poorest of public officials"
Pursuing this point, Mr.. Hal
perrin said that "as far as money
is concerned, Mr.. Jack undoubted-
ly is one Of the poorest men in
the official family-one Of the
poorest officials in the city"
The attorney declined to say
whether the inquiry had been
broadened to take in more than the
"loan" for the apartment remod-
cling.
you'll have to see District At
torney Hogan on that" he said.
Pressed on this point, Mr.. Hal
perrin reminded reporters that he
could not go before the grand jury
with his client and "had not had
a chance since to consult with
him." Somewhat angrily he added
that he did not confer with my
client in public"
With his testimony yesterday,
Mr.. Jack has spent a total Of six
hours and twenty minutes before
the grand jury.
