SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. "a
The first space soldier may be
just a satellite mechanic.
This unglamorous role for
the pioneer military spaceman,
described by Air Force officers
at the convention here last
week of the Air Force Associa-
ton, illustrates the new real
ism Of military men who are
eager to make use of space.
In past years very vocal Of
ficers in all three services have
talked about fighting on the
moon, fortifying Mars and at
least dropping bombs from sat-
elites.
At the same time others here
say there is no military value
to space-even If the country
could afford to put troops up
there. The Air Force, which
likes to call itself the "Aero-
space Force" has now-as in
dicated by statements here
settled down to a cautious mid
die ground.
Pr0saic Jobs
Air Force officers say, the
day when anyone will fight in
space is not yet in sight. Tech
nology must advance consider
ably before weapons can be
conceived which will do a given
military job better from space
than from land, sea or air. Also
the United States and the So
viets must make the political
decision to put fighting weap-
onS in space.
Space will be quite useful for
a lot Of proSaic jobs like COM
munications surveillance warn
ing, they added.
That is why the first space
soldier may be just mechanic.
Maj. Gen. o. j. Ritland, com
mander Of the Air Force bal
liStics missile division, said the
first economically justifiable Job
for man in space will be to
repair satellites.
1t costs a huge amount to
build a satellite and put it in
orbit. Once up there it is a
good investment to keep it
working a long time. Gen.
Ritland said a new project
called SMART-for Satellite
Maintenance and Repair Tech
niques"-iS making plans to
take technicians up in space to
repair defective satellites.

ing on no space-f1ghting prof.
ects-although there are plenty
OF studies going on of possible
offensive and defensive weap-
onS.
1t would seem logical, for in |
stance, that the Air Force
would be developing a method
OF shooting down hostile satel-
llteS during wartime. But 1t
Gen. Bernard A. Schrieyer

development Command. said

policy OF this country to use |
space for broadly defined
peaceful purposes. Russia 81

space vehicles-even with war

works is being given away to
National Capital Parks and
others who use it as a soil con-
ditioner. This sludge is kept in
a land I'LL area near the eewage
treatment works until it is
taken away.
Present SIudging Cheaper
Mr.. Auld said an experiment
now is being conducted in which
air-dried sludge is mixed with
soil from excavations.
This experiment is rather
promising" said Mr.. Aud. 1T
is my intention to see if we
can't sell this mixture as an
improved soil conditioner"
Mr.. Orndorf said the present
system of getting rid of sludge
costs about $4,000 a year while
operation of the drying and in
cinerator plant would cost an
estimated 100000 annually.
Mr.. Orndorff, who said the
decision to build the plant was
made before 81 got involved in
sewage treatment" was asked
II, with the benefit of hindSight,
he now would recommend con-
struction of such a plant.
He replied:
That's a tough question. I'm
glad I don't have to decide it.
The arrangement we have now
for disposal of sludge Is so
tenuouS that I don't think we
could justify relying on it alone.
We are also faced with a
constantly increasing amount
of sludge."
No Profit in Other Cities
Mr.. Orndorf said that while
some other major cities such
as Chicago and Milwaukee sell
heat-dried sludge, none of them
is making a profit on it.
He said the principal reason
for the decline in the market is
that an increasing amount of
sludge is becoming available
since more and more cities are

enamelWare or just about
anything imaginable in the
finest of product lines.
Lee Kong in Chinatown
mixes his foodstuff with a va
riety of Oriental items. You
can buy a magnificent vase in
his shop for $3.50 or a simple
little novelty for less than 81.
Besides the usual in carv-
ings and china. you can pick
up a few Chinese staples here
such as tulip bulbs for cook
ing or eel bladders, the latter
not half so repulsive looking
as they sound. They have
been prepopped in the oven
like popcorn and resemble a
puffed potato chip. The Chi
nese soak them, slice them and
add them to sim mering
chicken soup.
Here. too, you can buy any
variety of tea, rice or ginger,
preserved dry fruits or Ian
terms, chests and souvenirs.
Over in Georgetown, the
Orientale shop on Wisconsin
avenue is owned and run by
Mr.. James Wanveer, of Dutch
extraction and a one-time
resident of the Orient. The
son of missionaries, he grew
up in China where he attended
schools and learned to speak
the language. to read and
write in Chinese as well.
During the war. the Govern
ment made use of Mr.. Wan
veer's services with the OSS.
He came here in that capacity
from San Francisco and re-
manned.
Many of his Oriental an
tiqueS are furnishings includ-
ing tables. chests, chairs,
paintings, carvings, cigarette
sets, vases and porcelain.

Chances are good that the
person looking for either the
commonplace or unusual gift
from the Orient can find it
in Washington.
While the city does not
have a variety of shops such
as can be found in New York
or San Francisco, the few
thai carry Far Eastern
products are sufficient to
cover a wide array of in
dividual goods from that
part of the world.
It takes a little looking and
a bit of browsing to find the
unusual in Oriental things.
Old carved stone heads can
be found, japanese shipper
clippers inexpensive sewing
equipment). Happi coats both
in inexpensive materials and
pure silk beautifully lined,
jewelry. elephants carved of
buffalo horn from India,
carved teak of Bali or the
beautifully etched silver of
Siam.
Those who run these ORR
entail shops all have had some
connection with the Far East.
For SariS
Devi Raj, whose shop on
Capitol Hill is called Globe
Traders, took over the place
three years ago after the
death of her husband.
This owner-manager is a
child psychologist holding a
masters degree from George
Washington University. and
is a native of Kashmir, India.
If you are searching for an
authentic sari, she carries a
caseful, many in the most
exquisite of fabrics from pure

silks to others woven with
pure gold and silver threads.
One of the Saris, of a mag
niflcent gold design, could be
rendered down to pure cash
from its gold thread.
Devi Raj. who encourages
browsing, delights in remov-
ing the folded saris from
their shelves to spread them
out for a customer or to give
lessons in how they are
draped in the authentic
Indian fashion.
She has many other rare
and beautiful products of
India as we'll as from other
countries - some one Of q
kind in beautiful silk Happi
coats, Indian women's slip
pers. handbags or carvings
from ivory buffalo horn and
even sandalwood elephants.
Also among her items are
jewelry of the Far East and
ivory and chinaware.
Perhaps the shop with the
most unusual collection of
the very finest products from
the Orient is that of Kriger's
in downtown Washington,
filled with the treasures of
those far-away lands.
Mr.. Kriger, a White Rus
sian, lived in the Orient for
many years where he was a
bank president. He has been
in business here for more
than 20 years.
Horses of Amber
Here you can find carvings
OF figures and horses of
pressed amber, intricate ivory
carvings and jade, magnificent
Oriental scrolls and paintings,
chests and tables, screens,
cloisonne vases and plates,

There is a question about
what the bridegroom will

him with a slight limp. and
he never served in the armed

One authority suggested
he might wear court dress.
