earth with signals. Ships, plane
and submarine navigators will
translate the signals into posi-
ton fixes accurate to within
one-tenth of a mile.
The Transit satellite was de-
veloped for the Navy by the
Applied Physics Laboratory of
Johns Hopkins University of
Silver Spring
Additional Satellites
The other two satellites
launched last night were:
A SIS pound sphere nick
named Greb which carried two
detectors to measure X-ray ra-
diation from the sun. The
Naval Research Laboratory said
it is studying the effect of
solar radiation in the iono-
sphere, series Of electrically
charged layers in space which
bounce radio signals back to
earth and thus are important
to communications.
Injun, a 40-pound drum
shaped parcel to measure in
tense radiation in the Van Allen
radiation belts and to report
on auroral Phenomena such as
the Northern Lights. The in
strumentS were devised by DR..
James Van Allen of the Uni
verSity of Iowa whose gauges
on early United States satel-
lites discovered the great bands
of radiation.
But the starring role went
to the grapefruit-SiZed atomic
unit whose hot core contained
a small amount of Plutonium
238, a kaleidoscope which gen.
Grated heat up to 1000 degrees
Fahrenheit. Thermo electric
rods converted the heat to
electrical energy which sent
power to two of four radio
transmitterS and some instru-
ments in Transit 4-A.
Beat Over Russia
The United States thus scored
a beat over the Soviet Union
in sending the first nuclear
power unit into space. Once
perfected, these atomic batteries
will provide satellites with I'M
limited power supply and
permit communication with
vehicles fired deep into the uni
verse.
Within five years, it is
planned to use much larger
nuclear units as rocket propul-
sion systems.
Speeches and articles by
Russian scientists report they
ARE pushing development Of nu-
clear units as being necessary
for future space exploration.
American experts report the
Russians are working with
strontium 90, a relatively
dirty" nuclear element which
requires heavier shielding than
plutonium 238 and other ma
terials with which the United
States is experimenting.
The Russian articles indicate
the Soviets plan to launch an
initial atomic power device late
this year.
Limited Power Source
The Atomic Energy Commits
sion described the battery fired
aboard Transit 4-A as "a nu-
clear auxiliary power source
a small, lightweight isotopic-
fueled thermo electric gen.
orator"
An official emphasized it
was an experimental unit to
study the feasibility Of using
atomic energy as a power source
for space vehicles. He said the
amount Of plutonium 238 used
was not enough to run all the
satellite systems. Conventional
nickel cadmium batteries and
solar cells provided most Of the
power.

more experts from the State
and Defense Departments and
other agencies, such as the
Atomic Energy Commission.
1t would hire skilled research
scientists and would expand
contracts to research firms for
studies on technical questions.
The wider-ranging authority
in Mr.. Kennedy's bill provides
for studies even on economic
and political matters, such as
how to readjust United States
industry If disarmament comes
about.
The disarmament director
under the Secretary of States
direction, would be empowered
to conduct disarmament ne
gotiations with foreign repre-
Sentatives.
Wide Discussions Held
The ticklish question of con-
flicts with regular Federal
agencies in setting disarma-
ment policy, which cuts across
many fields, was resolved in
Mr.. Kennedy's bill only after
man acknowledgements discus
sions.
Mr.. McCloy, who drew up the
plan. reported Secretary of
State Rusk, Secretary of De-
Tense Ma0Namara and other
agency heads all concur" in
the creation of a separate
agency.
The disarmament chief is
supposed to cooperate closely
with other agencies, especially
the State Department. But if
he does not agree with the Sec
Rotary of State he can go
straight to the President.

Mr.. Leigh said he expected

and that the county is provid-

His co-counsel, Frank L. Ball

shown where "a single service

The suit was the second
brought by the city in Il years
In 1850, shortly after Falls
Church switched from town tt

10 square miles, some of which
is included in the suit decided
today. The annexation court
rejected the bid.

President Kennedy replied:
Dear Frank,
Thank you for your letter OF
June %. In accordance with
your wishes, I will withdraw
your nomination.
II appreciate your service to
me and to the administration
over the past year."
Mr.. Reeves served as a spe-
cial assistant to the President
at the White House since Feb
ruary 1. He submitted his res
ignation as assistant upon his
nomination to the District post
There are no White House
plans to rehire him.
Mr.. Reeves, in his letter OF
withdrawal, told the President
the District Democratic Central
Committee had recommended
Mr.. Duncan "as a possibility
for the post of District Com
missioner. 1 certainly would
concur in that recommends
tion," he added.
White House Press Secretary
Pierre Salinger said Mr.. Reeves
did not meet with President
Kennedy yesterday. He went
to the White House about two
hours before his letter was re-
leased, however, and repeatedly
talked over the matter with
staff assistants.
Not Requested
The President did not re-
quest the withdrawal, the
Press Secretary said in answer
to questions. It was understood
that the FBI had not given the
White House any information
about Mr.. Reeves tax pay
ments.
Mr.. Reeves started his round
of conferences at 1890 am
yesterday with staff aides OF
the Senate District Committee
Mr.. Smith said they had a "full
and friendly discussion of the
District of Columbia and tax
matters brought up at Senate
hearings" the day before.
At Tuesday hearings, Mr.
Reeves acknowledged tardy
payments to satisfy three tax
liens = one Federal and two
District.
He testified that he was GER
tain he had filed whatever re-
turns were due and that his
failure to pay on time was due
to his inability to pay" In
answer to a question of Senate
District Committee Chairman
Bible, Democrat of Nevada, as
to whether he was current on
tax payments, Mr.. Reeves said
Fortunately, sir, they are
being withheld so I have no
problem.

VATICAN CITY, Pope

words of a fifth-century
pontiff, st. Leo the Great,
to invite all separated
Christian bodies back to
unity.
Pope John spoke in a 1000

terna Del Sapientia" and dated
November II. The new en-
cyclical, the sixth of his pom

The invitation to unity was

the encycllcal directed it
chiefly to the schismatic
Christian churches of the
East.
THE ENcYcLIcAL describ-
ed the life and works of Pope
Leo and quoted widely from
his homilies and letters, illus
trating principally the tradi-
tional belief in the primacy
of the papacy.
It was occasioned by the
