From Attack
Against jos

Senator Francis Case, Repub-
lican Of South Dakota, made it
clear today he has not Joined
in any criticism OF the military
Joint Chiefs of Staff in con-
nection with the unsuccessful
invasion of Cuba.
Senator Case attended the
closed meeting of a Senate
Foreign Relations Subcommit-
tee last week after which Sen
ator Gore. Democrat of Ten
mes, demanded replacement Of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff on
the basis Of the testimony he
heard at the meeting.
Senator Case said that when
he left the meeting, his own
reaction was not fully reported.
and. as a result, a remark he
made about being "flabber-
gasted" was interpreted as
giving lmplled support 10 Lne
Gore demand.
Senator Case explained in the
Senate yesterday that what he
said was that he was flabber-
gaSted that the military reputa-
ton Of the United States could
be laid on the line by persons
who are not in the military
establishment or under their
control"
He told a reporter that he
was referring to whoev
planned and directed the inva-
sion Of Cuba. which was not
under the control of the Chiefs
Of Staff.

Later Mr.. Rosen said he was
not aware of the report. DR..

BY WILLIAM HINES
Star Science Writer

The space agency and the
House Space Committee talked
about a satellite rendezvous in
space today. but had a hard
time achieving a rendezvous of
their own.
In fact, for about half an
hour this morning, a witness
from the agency found himself
pleading wistfully for money
the committee already had
given him. And the commit
tee gave no indication of being
aware that the money had
been authorized.
This instance Of orbital con-
fusion-going around in circles
came while Milton Rosen
was on the stand. Mr.. Rosen,
deputy director of the launch
ing vehicles program for the
National Aeronautics and Space
Administration, was talking
about the plan to bring satel-
lites together in space-an in
volved business now projected
for the mid SOS.
So Million Asked
A committee member asked
how much money was involved
this year and next. Mr.. Rosen
said NASA had asked for and
had received 81 million in the
current fiscal year. and So mil
lion had been budgeted for fis-
cal 1862.
Next. the committee wanted
to know how much he would
like to have in the coming year.
ITO have a really aggressive
program. I'd like to see the sum
increased to So million"
The discussion continued
until reporters called the at
tention Of one member to a
paragraph in the committees
report last week authorizing
money for NASA in fiscal 1862.
The paragraph read:
"Ialrrh vehicle techpoIopv
An increase from SIS million
to $23 million. The additional
money here will permit the de-
velopment of new in-orbit rem

ing Of space craft. plus ad-

Auto Sales Up,
Crowds View
New Models

Area automobile dealers
wound UP the old-model year
with sales gains and low in
ventories, and attendance at
dealers ShowingS of the new
models indicates a good year
ahead.
This was reported today by
Maurice j. Murphy, executive
vice president of the Automo-
tive Trade Association, Nation
al Capital Area.
He said area new-car sales
totaled 59,488 units in seven
months ended July 81, COM
pared with $3.50 in the same
1860 period. Results for August
will not change the margin ap-
preciably he predicted.
Mr.. Murphy recalled the
model year just ended re-
ceived a big setback in bad
weather of last January. Sales
picked up sharply after the
first 20 days of February, how
ever. and continued to forge
ahead for the remainder of the
year, he declared.
Because of much lower in
ventories than a year ago and
a later model cutoff last year,
August sales probably will
about equal a year ago, he said.
Dealer showings of new mod
els have attracted unusually
large crowds in the last week
and a strong demand for new
models already is apparent,
although all lines have not
been announced yet, Mr.. MUIR
ply added.
