President Says
Americans Don't
Want to Be Soft

President Eisenhower said
yesterday he does not believe
Americans deliberately want to
be soft"
But he told a news confer
ence the results of some tests
he has seen about the physical
fitness of American youth COM
pared to youths in Europe are
alarming and depressing.
His comment came in re-
sponse to a question about
statements at the White House
Conference on Children and
Youth to the effect that Amer
ican youth is growing soft.
The American tendency is to
try to earn enough money to
buy it when one sees a new
convenience or comfort, Mr..
Eisenhower remarked.
In Europe, he said, one sees
children by the thousands BIZ
cycling to school. But here, he
added, children go to schools
in buses, and their parents are
concerned about traffic if they
must walk even four or five
blocks.
He said ways must be found
to overcome lack of physical
fitness of youth.

SIS Billion Rise
In Foreign Aid
Urged on U. S.
BY the Associated Press

A SIS billion to So billion
increase in the annual United
States contribution to world
development has been sug-
gested to the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee.
The Massachusetts Institute
Of Technology's Center for In
ternational studies, making
the recommendation, also con-
tended that failure to put
United States aid programs on
genuine long-term basis "is
perhaps the most serious weak
ness of our economic assistance
effort"
Senator Fulbright, Democrat
of Arkansas, the committee
chairman, made public the
study saying its recommen-
dationS do not necessarily
reflect the views of the
committee.
The research center, headed
by Max F. Millikan, dealt in a
98-page report with the prob
lens created by underdeveloped
nations for United States for
eign policy.
Continuing to legislate for
and to operate aid programs
on a vear-to-year basis not
only involves considerable waste
of money and human energies, "
the study said, but also sig
nificantly lessons the effective
ness of our assistance"

Mechanical Hand
To Pilot Rocket,
Russians Claim
BY the Associated Press

Soviet scientists claim to
have developed a mechanical
hand that will help pilot space
ships of the future with super
human skill.
The Russian claim was re-
ported today by the Commerce
Department in a digest Of ar
ticles translated from Soviet
scientific journals.
An unsigned report in the
Soviet publication Rabotniche-
sko Delo said the hand will be
attached to a human astronaut
and will be controlled directly
by muscular currents.
The digest quotes the report
as saying, "It will be sufficient
for the pilot Of an interplane-
tary rocket to merely think of
executing one or another action
in operating the rocket and the
artificial hand will Immediately
and unerringly perform this
activity"
A model of the device was
said to have been developed at
the Central Institute for Pros.
thetic Devices in Moscow.
