Senators See
African Gains
BY the Associated Press

Three Democratic Senators
reported after a four-week tour
of Africa yesterday that free
dom is winning" over commu-
nism in the developing nations
of that continent.
Senators Gore of Tennessee,
Hart of Michigan and Neu-
berger of Oregon said in a
statement that their visit to
Is African countries convinced
them I'VE are distinctly ahead
and gaining"
The concepts of individual
liberty and freedom in Africa
are prevailing over forces that
would subject Africa either to
Communist control or to re-
establishment of colonialism of
any kind" they said.
Senator Gore told a news
conference that he and his
companions do not agree with
Senator Dodd. Democrat of
Connecticut, that the United
Nations has helped the Com
munists get a foothold in the
government of the Congo. Sen
ator Dodd particularly attacked
Antoine Gizenga, Deputy Prime
Minister Of the Congo. in this
respect.
Senator Gore said it was his
opinion - and Senators Hart
and Neuberger seconded this
that Premier Cyrille Adoula
has gained in influence while
the influence of Mr.. Gizenga
has diminished materially.
The three Senators were crit
ical of Portugal's administra-
ton OF Angola. They said a
mammoth refugee problem is
being created by Angolians
fleeing to other countries to
escape the Portuguese rule.
Senator Gore said this had
brought him to the conclusion
that either Portugal must mend
its attitude toward the people
in it's colonies or we must
reassesS our alignment to the
Portuguese" Senator Hart and
Mrs. Neuberger said they
agreed with this statement.

school aid BILL" Senator
Mansfield said. But in view
of the two-year extension
voted in the last session for
aid to federally impacted
school districts and for the
National Defense Education
Act, I think it is doubtful we
will be able to get a general
bill.
IT think the prospects for
such a bill will be much
brighter in 1853"
Failed to Get Action
Mr.. Kennedy sought but
failed to get action on a broad
$50 billion, fvie-year program
this year. 1t included $2.3
billion in school construction
and teacher salary grants. $2.8
billion in loans for building
college dormitories. classroomS.
laboratories and libraries and
$578 million for scholarships.
Controversy over aid to paro-
chial schools and conservative
objections to direct Federal
Government contributions to
education combined to bring
about a stalemate in the House
after the Senate had passed a
general aid bill.
Senator Mansfield said he
can't forecast action in the
next session on Mr.. Kennedy's
request for enactment of a pro-
gram Of medical care for the
elderly, linked to the social Sc
curity system.
IF the House passes a bill of
this kind, I am reasonably GER
tain that the Senate will ap-
prove it," he said. But I can't
forecast what the House will
do"

External skin temperatures.
are expected to range from
minus 100eF to as high as
10000 as the spacecraft built
by Mcdonnell Aircraft goes
through varying atmospheric
conditions during launching, or
biting and re-entry. Protection
of the spaceman and equipment
in these extremes of ternpera-
ture is as vital as perfect func-
tioning of the vehicles com.
ponents. To provide maximum
protection from heat with a
minimum of added weight, ma
terials required to do the insul-
alton job must attain thermal
efficiencies which only a year or
two ago would have been con-
sidered theoretically impossible.
The two thermal insulations
selected by NASA to meet these
spacecraft requirements were
developed at the Johns-Manville
Research Center at Manville,
New Jersey, largest thermal
Insulation laboratories in the
world. One of the insulations,
mink, actually has a ther-
NAL conductivity considerably
lower than that of still air;
traditionally considered the low
est possible, according to DR..
C.. F. Rassweiler, vice president
for Research and Development,
Johns-Manville Corp.
The second Insulation used
by Mcdonnell is Thermoflex, q
blanket-like material composed
of ceramic fibers produced from
arc-furnace melts at tempera-
tures higher than used in pro-
ducing any other fibers. This
material, because of its fluffy
structure, win offer high resis-
tance to the passage Of noise as

II was mfd-February, 1914. and
Sandy Sloane had one more miss
ion TO fly over Germany before re-
assignment.
Back home in New Hampshire
his wife Margaret waited anxious
ly whit he baby son he had never
seen. wondering how long before
they'd be together in a house on
the pine covered Knoll. That was
the spot on the big Sloan farm
at Rindge, n. H., Sanderson--h
was always called Sandy-had sell
ected years before for his future
home.
Lt.s Sloane, a BIZ pilot, wrote
his parents often. and almost al
ways asked them 10 touch nothing
on the Knoll because he wanted
to come back and do it all HIM
self.
He never came back.
In the summer of 1915 his par
ents began clearing the lovely hill
top surrounded by views of distant
mountains. They had long wanted
" DuAlO etA Oul vi dOOi GLdPCA.
Why not put il here, memorial
not only TO Sandy but to all AM
ericans who died in war service?
Sandy's widow selected the site
for the Altar of the Nation, built
from stones from each of the Un-
ted States, from commanding off
icers of the U. S. armed forces
in World War ii. from military
sites. One rock is from the Punch
bowl of the @Korean War, another
is a piece of Plymouth Rock, a
third is a chip from the rock sup
posed to have been rolled against
Jesus tomb after the crucifixion.
In 1857 Congress voted to rec
ognize it as a memorial for all
American war dead.
This altar is the only place,
where women, Red Cross workers,
Merchant Mariners, USO canteen
workers, entertainers to the troops
war correspondents and laboratory
shop and factory workers who gave
their lives in war service are rem
embered," says Sandy's father Dou-
glaS Sloane, a retired investment
banker and EpiseOpalian. And on
ly here are remembered the men

ing our heritage. One life is as
precious as another. and that in

Every year on Memorial Day re-
representatives. from the president of
the United States, all the governors
patriotic organizations, AFL-CI0,
Actors, Equity. and many other
groups present wreaths and flow
ers in a two hour long ceremony.
This year various state officials,
have asked the President to send
astronaut Alan Shepard as his per-
sonal representative, but the ap-
pointment isn't certain.

By now, the Cathedral has a paid

And all this without a collection
ever being taken, or a parking
charge ever levied" says Sandy's
father proudly. "We just have boxes
placed here and there with the,
word Thanks" Almost all our sup
port comes without asking"
The Cathedral trustees-about 55
decided American
women war dead should have
specific war memorial with a me-
mortal bell tower to be seen and
heard for miles. National patriotic
and business and professional wo-
mems groups are already contribu-

history. Throughout the life of
mankind, it has been the resort
of those who could not hope to
prevail by reason and per-
suasion. 1t will be repelled to-
day, as it has been repelled in
the past-not only by the
steadfastneSs Of free men but
by the power of the arms which
men will use to defend their
freedom.
There is no mystery about
producing a 50-megaton bomb.
Nor is there any technical need
for testing such a weapon at
full-scale detonation in order
to confirm the basic design.
The United States Government
considered this matter carefully
several years ago and concluded
that such weapons would not
provide an essential military
capability. The existing United
States nuclear arsenal is su-
perior in quantity and quality
to that of any other nation.
The United States today has
ample military power to de-
stroy any nation which would
unleash thermo-nuclear war.
We have no wish ever to use
this military power. We are
ready, now as ever, to sign the
test-band treaty proposed at
Geneva. We are ready, now as
ever, to negotiate a treaty fol
general and complete diSarma-

The tert OF a White House
statement on the SoUiet test
OF their big nuclear bomb,
issued late Monday, tollotUS:
At $3.50 this morning, the
Soviet Union detonated a very
large nuclear device. Prelimi-
nary evidence indicates that its
magnitude is on the order of
so megatons. The explosion
took place in the atmosphere.
1t will produce more radioactive
fallout than any previous ex-
plosion.
The Soviet explosion was a
political rather than a military
act. The device exploded does
not add in effectiveness against
military targets to nuclear
weapons now available both tn
the Soviet Union and the
United States. 1t does not af-
feet the basic balance Of nu-
clear power. Any such weapon
would be primarily a mass kill
er of people in war-and the
testing of this device primarily
an incitement to fright and
panic in the cold war.
In undertaking this test, the
Soviet Union has deliberately
overridden the expressed hope
of the world as stated in the
resolution adopted by the Gen.
eral Assembly Of the United
Nations on october %. 1t has
done so because it intend!
through this display to spread
such fear across the world tha'
