Search Pushed

Services OK
Joint Effort
On Aircraft
By the Associated Press

The Army, Navy and Air
Force have agreed on a $40
million joint effort to build an
experimental transport plane
that could take off and land
vertically.
Intended to meet the needs
of all three services, it would
be especially valuable in land
ing soldiers or Marines and
equipment in rugged country
where there are few landing
strips.
The tilt-wing plane would
cruise at about 300-350 miles
an hour and would have an
operating radius of from about
230 to 345 miles. 1t could carry
up to 5000 pounds of cargo and
men.
The estimated cost of more
than $40 million would cover
construction Of five prototype
planes. Each of the services
already has Clipped in 81 mil
lion and will share the rest of
the expense.
Chosen to build the plane
were three aircraft companies:
Chance Vought Corp. of Dali
las, Hitler Aircraft Corp. Of
Palo Alto. Calf, and Ryan
Aeronautical Co. of San Diego.
In addition, the services are
considering a supplementary
program to evaluate more ad-
vanced concepts of vertical
tdkeoff and landing aircraft.
If one or more additional de-
signs is chosen for further de-
velopment, the total program
may top $100 million.

MotherwelI's
Counsel Plans
To File Appeal

Larry Lord Motherwell's
Washington attorney plans to
appeal the 44-year-old con-
struction workers murder con-
victlon to the California
Supreme Court despite an ap-
pellate court finding that could
reduce Motherwell's prison
term.
Attorney John T. Reyes said
yesterday he will file an appeal
as soon as he can communicate
with Motherwell, now a pris-
oner in San Quentin. Mr.. Reyes
said the appellate court ruling
Wednesday was a compromise"
and said the action verifies his
contention that the evidence
was insufficient in the first
place.
The appellate court reduced
the conviction of first-degree
murder to second-degree mur-
der in the death of 72-year-old
Mrs. Pearl Putney. The effect
of the reduction is that, instead
of serving a life sentence,
Motherwell is now liable to a
sentence from five years to life.
This new sentence allows
Motherwell to apply for parole
after serving three years in
prison. He already has served
a year and a half.
Motherwell's fate actually is
in the hands of the California
Adult Authority under the
States Indeterminate Sentence
Law. The authority can set a
term of years for him to serve
within the legal. penalty or it
can grant him a parole any
time it sees fit after the next 18
months have elapsed.

ington was hesitant until Mr..
Kennedy received desperate
and angry letters from the
chancellor and the Berlin
mayor.
Had our Bonn ambassador
been allowed a modicum of
initiative without being COM
PEELED to refer every sneeze
to Washington, he could have
warned the German leaders
to be patient, that Washing
ton was formulating a plan
of action.
No wonder that some Of
our able ambassadors at a
time of crisis say: ITO heck

get back quickly if Washing
ton wants me to do some

body to remember that there
is an efficient American re-
preventative in Bonn, in
Rome or in Teheran who
could be more than a highly
paid striped-pants messenger
boy surrounded by secretaries
and attaches to lend his job
dignity.
It might be asked why
these men of real experience
don't show some initiative on
their own, at least as a pre-
liminary in time Of crisis.
After all, a newspaper cor
respondent, when faced with
a big story. does not wait for
his editor thousands of miles
away to cable him to file
fully. The fact is the foreign
service men know that in the
State Department there are
conflicting PHILOSOPHERS such
as those between Secretary
Dean RuSk and Undersecre-
tary Bowles. They must also
reckon with the Senate where
there are similar contrary
winds, and finally, they real
ize that even Cor especially
there are contradictory con-
cepts on foreign policy in the
White House. A wrong initia-
tive move might cause a
transfer to Burma, Ghana or
Leopoldville.
What it all boils down to
is that modern, fast COM
munications have been can
celled out by the indecisions
and heSitancies Of the policy

ROME, Italy - That we
have a number of good dip
lomats in important posts
around the world but no di-
plomacy is the inevitable
conclusion which any OBJ
server trained in political
and diplomatic affairs must
reach when he watches at
close quarters present inter-
national developments.
The Kennedy adminisira-
ton, more than the previous
one, has placed a number of
young, competent and ex-
perienced foreign service Of
ficers in posts which in the
past went to heavy contribu-
tors to the party kitty in
election years. 1t was rare,
indeed, in the past for career
men, trained for years for
responsible work, to get any
of the "plums.
Mr.. Kennedy has broken
with that unfortunate ira
dition" and appointed to key
jobs men who have spent
years in the foreign service.
This was one of the few
moves in the New Frontier
administration which was
applauded by the "conserva-
tives." Only a few of the
starry-eyed New Frontier
biologists were given diplo-

diplomacy-they required the
political zeal of the current
philosophy of the admins

ped-up mediation,
Arsenal Idea Misses
Now, advisers drafting pro-
poSals for legislation next year
are having second thoughts.
THAT arsenal Of weapons
phrase was a loser" q high
ranking official said.
The theory behind the
arsenal" he said, was that the
wide choice of weapons would
give mediators increased "lev-
erage" to push labor and man
agement into voluntary settle
ments.
It was hoped, he said, that
availability of the arsenal"
would reduce the need for presi-
Dental action.
But, he continued, this
theory Of deterrence got lost
when public discussion en-
phaSized seizure and binding
arbitration as front-line weap-
ons, rather than as clubs to
be held in reserve.
Contrary to intent, he said,
the idea got around that the
arsenal" would increase presi-
Dental action in strikes and
down-grade mediation.
Mediation Now Favored
The current view among
presidential advisers is that
mediation is the key to set
ting major strikes. Proposals
now under study would greatly
strengthen Government med
iation services, and would
specifically authorize mediators
to engage in public fact-find-.
ing. Fact-finding, probably with
settlement recommendations,
would aim at mobilizing pub
lie opinion.
Such tough weapons as ar
bitration probably would be
made available to the Presi-
dent, but the legislation would
subordinate them to mediation
machinery.
A special task force will pre-
sent it's views on strike legis-
lation to the Presidents advis-
ory Committee on Labor-Man-
agement Policy at a meeting
next month.

President Kennedy is spur
ring Americans on to build
home fallout shelters to cut the
Nations losses In case of
nuclear war-but to his official
family the idea seems to be a
yawn.
OF IA high officials who sit
with Mr.. Kennedy on the Ma
tional Security Council or in
the cabinet, not a single one
has yet built a home shelter.
Postmaster General Day,
however, has picked out what
looks like a pretty safe corner
in his basement and Is stocking
it with canned goods and other
survival items.
A few others are arranging
for shelters, or thinking about
it in a non-urgent way, but in
most cases the reaction appears
to be: Who, me?"
The high officials who are
minus shelters aren't explain
ing, for the most part, but
among the lower echelons an air
of jaunty fatalism is wide
spread. One subordinate official
said:
IF the big bangs begin,
Washington will be a prime
target. I live in Georgetown,
close to the center Of things.
I'd be vaporized, shelter or no
shelter, so why bother?"
This attitude isn't universal
by any means, and quite q few
shelters have been built in the
Capital, though not by the real
bigwigs.
Here's a rundown on the
top-rankers:
President Kenned edy-The
White House has an elaborate
bomb shelter built during the
war. Mr.. Kennedy has sew
eral secret shelters to go to
within a two-hour auto drive
or 20-minute helicopter trip
from Washington.
Vice President Johnson-He
recently bought a French
chateau-type home in Spring
Valley, but is living in a hotel
while the house is revamped.
The revamping does not in
clude a fallout shelter, aides
said.
| Secretary of State Rusk-
He and Mrs. Rusk have been
talking over the shelter idea
but are undecided yet.
Secretary OF Defense Nc
Namara - He's arranging to
have a shelter installed in the
big house he rents on Kalo-
rama circle. He really has to
have a shelter to set an ex-
ample, if for no other reason.
Mr.. Kennedy recently gave
him command of the Nation
wide shelter program.
Frank B. Ellis, civil defense
director-He rents a house, and
is trying to get a shelter de-
signed that can be readily
moved if the next tenant
doesn't want it.

tial assistant for national Sc
curity affairs-No shelter, aides

Washington Is Criticized as DeprNing
Foreign Service Officers of InitiotiVe

that the Italian government
was going off on a tangent.
that the American ambassa-
dor should have talked at
least unofficially to the
prime minister or foreign
minister for information. But
he had to wait a few days
before he got the high sign
from the State Department
to call on the top men in the
Italian government. There
have been similar situations
in other important capitals.
It is said in defense of
this system that in the old
days ambassadors had to be
given more latitude and
initiative because communi-
cations were not as fast as
now. 1t is pointed out that
all that is necessary now
when an Important develop
ment arises is for the am
bassador to talk directly by
telephone to Washington.
But at best he can reach the
Secretary of State who in
turn must reach the Presi-
dent who in turn must seek
the counsel of his advisers
before the ambassador can
get his instructions.
Walter Dowling. our am
basSador to Bonn and un-
doubtedly a fully competent
career diplomat, must have
known what was coming
when thousands of East Ger
mans were detecting daily to
the West and reporting that
they had left homes and
everything they possessed to
leave quickly because the
puppet government was 60
ing to close the border.
The warning signals GER
tainly we're not lost on Mr..
Bowling, but Washington
prepared no move until sew
eral days after the East Ger
man Reds started building
the concrete block wall. 1t
is safe to assume that Mr..
Dowling had not been given
instructions on what to tell
Chancellor Adenauer and
Mayor Brandt our attitude
and actions might be. In
fact, it appears that Wash
