Bomber Fires
Two Missiles

EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE,
Fla, Nov. 16 (AP).-A B-52G
bomber launched a CAN'T
Hound Dog missile over the At
lantic Ocean yesterday and
three hours later fired a GAM
TIA Quail missile over the Gulf
of Mexico.
| 1t was the first time two such
missiles had been launched
during the same flight.
The Strategic Air Command
bomber fired the 42-foot Hound
Dog over the Atlantic missile
range off the East Coast of
Florida near Cape Canaveral.
The air-to-ground weapon flew
several hundred miles southeast
before hitting the target area.
In SACs first airborne test of
the GAM-72A. the Quail diver
sionary missile was fired into
successful free flight over the
Eglin. Gulf test range.
| The weapon, an improved
version of the Empowered de-
coy missile, was launched above
the Gulf of Mexico at a point
south of the Mississippi River
delta. 1t flew several hundred
miles on a preset course to the
northeast. then to the south
east. and back toward the
launching point.
The 12-foot Quails fly at the
same attitudes and speeds as
the B-52 bombers and are de-
signed to appear on radar
screens the same as the bomber
to confuse enemy. air defenses.
Both the Hound Dog and
Quail are undergoing final tests
at Eglin before being assigned
to operational units.

Road Scandal
To Be Barred,
P'rober Says
BY the Associated Press


A congressional hearing
opening December 5 will bring
out "a shocking situation" in
highway construction in Flor
ida. a House committee investi-
gator says.
Walter May. attorney for the
Highway Investigating Subj
committee headed by Repre-
sentative Blatnik. Democrat Of
Minnesota, said disclosures ex-
pected at the hearing would be
even more startling than those
uncovered at the committees
hearing last spring into Okla
homa scandals.
The Oklahoma hearing de-
veloped testimony of hidden
profits. including profits for a
member of the State Highway
Commission from a firm in
in which he was identified as
a silent partner, faulty inspec-
tions and other irregularities.
There also was testimony Of
death threats against one of the
witnesses.
Payments Cited
Undercover payments from a
contractor to Florida Highway
Department inspectors will be
disclosed, Mr.. May said yes
terday.
Mr.. May said the hearing
not only would document the
secret payments - brought to
light by a State legislative COM
mittee hearing in Florida--but
would go far beyond anything
so far developed.
Mr.. May declined to explain
further. But he said the De-
cember hearing. expected to
last about two weeks, would
have two phases:
/. The relationship between
contractors and State Highway
Department employees.
| Q. The disposal of improve
ments along rights of way
bought by Florida for highways.
Control by Contractors
The proper procedure, Mr..
May said, was for the State to
acquire improvements on rights
Of way and sell them for the
highest price possible, before
awarding contracts to builders
for construction Of the high
ways. In some cases, he said,
contractors got control Of i'm
provements along rights of way
and sold them.
The investigating committee
is a subcommittee of the House
Public Works Committee. Mr..
Blatnik has been in Minnesota
since before the November 8
election. Mr.. May has been
handling preparations for the
hearing and has made a trip
to Tampa, where the State
Legislative Committee held a
hearing.
Mr.. May said committee in
vestigators are now checking
Federal highway construction
in a number of States. One
of these is Massachusetts,,
where there have been reports
of improper activities.
No dates have been set for
any hearings other than that
for Florida. It will be the only
hearing prior to the opening
Of the new Congress.

SEAMS TO NE
Convertible Collar Is Not Difficult to Make

A convertible tailored COLI
lar can look sloppy If it is not
done properly. yet 1t shouldn't
be dificult to make. How
ever, judging by the many
cries for help I've received.
some of you are encountering
trouble on such a project. al-
though just what you are do
ing wrong I don't know.
Since / don't know what
the various individual prob
lens are, I'll just give you my
method for making q con-
vertible collar - one I've
never had a nit of trouble
with - and hope that some
where along the line you'll
spot where you've been wrong.
The first yell probably
comes when you see that the
neckline Of the bodice and
the collar are different sizes.
Don't panic. The neckline is
cut about " inch larger than
the collar and it must be
eased to the collar, or the COL
lar must be stretched to the
neckline.
To avoid the bothersome
problem Of the undercollar
sliding down after the collar
is finished, try this. After you
have cut out the collar, un-
dercollar and interfacing If
used, trim 1/16 inch to 1/8
inch OF the outer edge Of un-
dercollar and interfacing.
This will make the collar q
Evening star., 1960-10-31

Trim interfacing right to the
stitching line; trim UNDER
collar to- Y inch from stitch
ing and the collar to 3/16
inch. At each point, trim
diagonally across the point.
Turn collar to right side.
Now, ease. your seam line to
underneath side and press.
Stay stitch around neck
line Of bodice. Then clip the
neckline every inch or so to
the stitching. Pin finished
collar to neck edge, match
ing pattern markings Gig. u.
To make facings for con-
vertible collar, stitch front
and back pieces together at
each shoulder. Press seams
open. Then pin facing over
collar to the garment, right
sides together; baste and
stitch together (fig q. Trim
seam allowances and clip col
lar and facing every inch or
SO as you did bodice neck
line. Turn facing to wrong
side Of garment; press; tack
facing to garment at shoul-
der seams Gig. 81.
If you do not use interfac-
ing, just follow the same
steps. eliminating the in
structions referring to inter-
facing. *

Indio Sees Expansion
Of Family Planning

The Indian government will
attempt to counter its grow
Ing population problem with
q greatly expanded birth con-
troll program next year, a high

Braj K. Nehru said yester-
day the birth control program
In India's third five-year plan,
starting next year, will be "sev-
eral times as large as that in
the second five-year plan" now
underway.
Mr.. Nehru, a first cousin of
Indian Premier Jawaharlal
Nehru, is India's ambassador at
large for economic affairs and
also serves as commissioner
general for economic affairs.
He addressed the Planned
Parenthood Associations of the
District and Montgomery Coun-
ty at their annual luncheon
in the Presidential Arms.
For the third five-year plan,
he reported, a government COM
mittee has recommended fam
tly planning funds of $210 mil
lion, go times as large" as

terms, is to cut the present
! birth rate of 40 per thousand
by half in 25 years." the Am
bassador said.
He told his audience that
India's population of AIS mil
lion is increasing at a rate Of
l8 million people per year. 1T
is self-evident that the popula-
ton growth in India cannot be
allowed to take its own course, I"
he said.
India now has 1900 birth
control clinics and 1900 mater
nifty centers, he asserted. and
the concept of family planning
seems to be gaining wider ac-
ceptance.
THE basic advantage in the
Indian situation is that there
i is no religious taboo against
birth control" Mr.. Nehru said.
He said that with the OPEN
ing of a government birth con-
troll clinic in 1880, India be-
came the first country to adopt
family planning as official
policy. India has. the largest
such program in the world and
may soon be able to "givt
foreign aid" in birth control,
rather than receive it, he re-
marked.
