SOARING TRIBUTE
Stevenson Likes Glenn, Too

of support of the U. N. by its
members"
These words were received
with applause. Ambassador
Stevenson reserved his Wanted
eloquence for a private meet
ing with half-a-doz Demo-
cratic Senators who he hopes
can be persuaded to make the
bond issue a party policy mat
ter. He needs a captain for
these forces. He is cast down
at the prospect of a setback at
home after a season Of signal
victories at a most perilous
time in the world organization.
State Organizes
The State Department, which
is extremely annoyed at itself
for having failed to involve
senator Aiken IN the planning
stages of the bond issue, is or
ganizing now to recoup. The
Senate has been divided into
Is member groups. Assistant
Secretary Of State for Interna-
tional Organizations Harlan M.
Cleveland, his two deputies and
congressional liaiSon chief Fred
Dutton are each responsible for
one quarter.
Besides putting forth the fis-
cal arguments for the plan,
they will point out that the
United States can hardly fail
to come across, having induced
other nations to participate.
They also will try to separate
opponents of the bond issue
from enemies of the U. N. and
hope that Mr.. Stevenson, who
had such trouble plotting the
problem through the U. N, will
not have to push it through
the Senate. too.

The Senator also asked that
Maj. Laurence P. Lansing, in

gineer center, and Specialist
4-c Jerome Carter, who has
been lecturing in the education
program, be called as witnesses
in the inquiry.
Both, he added, were on an
original list of witnesses he had
suggested.
Replies to Story
Senator Thurmond issued q
five-page reply to a story in
yesterdays Star which said the
Army planned to tell the SUBJ
committee that his charges
against the Fort BelVoir pro-
gram were wrong.
The story also said the Army
planed to point out that sub
committee investigators knew
all the facts about the situa-
ton when Senator Thurmond
made the charges last week
during questioning of Maj. Gen.
Charles Dodge, Army informa-
ton chief.
II did not err" said Senator
Thurmond, land the staff did,
indeed, have all the facts when
I asked the question"

Gen. Dodge said today, how
ever, that he has no plan to
send the results of his investi-
cation to the COMMUNICATION
the simple reason, he said,
that the committee did not re-
quest it.
He pointed out that the COM
mittee last week asked him
to look into the Fort Belvoir
troop information program and
that he said he would. The
matter was then dropped.
Another Army spokesman
had said on Monday that Gen.
Dodge planned to send a writ

Senator Thurmond answered
each of five points which The
Star story said the Army would
make, quoting from the tran
script of last weeks hearings.

Mr.. Stevenson escorted the
astronauts around the U. N.
and obviously it was one of the
most satisfactory occurrences
OF his more recent past.
He suggested that the tech

lack OF specific knowledge and
understanding of the subject
which he chose to discuss. "
The film, it was said, was en-.
titled Communist Europe" and
the introduction pertained
mostly to emerging nations OF
Africa and evidenced a sur
prising lack of insight into the
development in this area"
On Stock Market
Senator Thurmond said the
specialist spoke last October on
1.-THE Stock Market" and cited
as reference assorted books on
the market (plus the instruc-
tors years of experience in
amassing huge fortunes on Wall
Street,"
He also criticized what he
said were the instructors
reference to Ngo Dinh Diem
in outline for another lecture
as "diStrustful" and "undemo-
cratic" among other things.
Such references, Senator Thur
mond said, were hardly ap-
propriate to an ally in the
struggle against communism.
The Senator said the lecturer
must have rejected all official
troop information material in
favor of unofficial material OBJ
tanned from magazines, news
papers and books.
"ThiS (The Starr newspaper
article" said Senator Thur
mond, shows beyond question
that both the reporter who
wrote it and the official who
gave him the leak were I'M
informed and obviously seeking
to capitalize on senSationaliSm.
This kind of leaking and re-
porting is a disservice to the
individuals involved, to the

bond issue. Having been told
that the friends of the United
Nations had been hearing about
the bond issue for the last
three days, he decided to drop
all reference to it in his speech,
The proposal to help finance
the U. N. through a 500 mil
lion bond issue came out of
the Foreign Relations Com
mittee last week by a vote of
81. A substitute proposal by
Senator Aiken, Republican of
Vermont, to grant the U. N. a
short-term loan lost by a sin
| gle vote. Senator Aiken, a
friend Of the U. NJ, but an en-
envy of the bond issue, intends
to bring his loan measure to
the floor and yesterday went
before the Senate Republican
conference to ask for party
support.

President Kennedy, who told
his press conference last week
he thought the bond issue
could be left to the Senate For

American Association for the

unequivocal support.
His message was read to the

proved by the General Assem-
bly, is the only proposal put
forth at the U. N. or elsewhere

Thurmond CHALLENGES
Army on Fort Be|voir

by name since they already hao
been requested as witnesses and
no purpose would be served In
doing so.
Senator Thurmond said The
Star story was misleading
since the facts" which it said
the Army would make were
covered, except for the names
in last weeks hearing.
One point was that the
private" referred to in The
Stars story last week is a
specialist fourth class, tn e
equivalent of a corporal. Sen
ator Thurmond said he re-
ferred only to the lecturer as
a soldier" "a subcommittee
investigator told reporters at
the time he thought he was
a private.
The second point was that
the specialist has security
clearance. Senator Thurmond
said the hearing transcript re-
vealed that he received this
only after staff members were
at Fort Belvoir and Gen. Dodge
was quoted as saying "That
is correct, SIR"
The third point which the
Army indicated it would make
was that Specialist Carter, son
Of a former member of Con-
gresS, had three college degrees.
Senator Thurmond pointed out
that he had said the specialist
is a college graduate but had
attended no military schools,
received no orientation on mill
tary policy and had been ex-
posed to no official course on
communism"
Motivation Unchallenged
The fourth point was that
Specialist Carter was an avid
reader of magazines and books
and his views are militantly
anti-communism and pro-
Americanism. Senator Thur
mond said there was no news
in this as he had said at the
hearing that the mans motiva-
ton was not challenged but
that che was not told what to
do"
The fifth point was that
Specialist Carter, who was
quoted as saying he would be
happy to appear before the
subcommittee, had won high
praise from Army inspectors
for his lectures and would earn
another promotion if his en-
listment were not running out.
On this score Senator Thur
gave a detailed challenge
to some of the specialists
references in lectures he has
given. He said the subcommittee
had the soldiers introduction
to a film which shows a basic

Sick Instruments
A few days later, when
Comdr. Carpenter went into
orbit, his systolic blood pressure
readings kept rising while the
diaStolic stayed constant, and
his temperature scared, all with
out an increase in pulse rate.
This, at least, is what the medi-
cal sensors said.
Experienced space needles
like 1t. Coils. Stanley White and
Charles Berry diagnosed the
situation for what 1t turned out
to be healthy man, sick instru-
ments.
Mr.. Douglas said there are
five classes Of medical sensors
that need drastic improvement
for space use. All five types
have stories to tell that tie in
intimately with the astronaut's
condition. They are:
1. An instrument to measure
arterial blood pressure with
more reliability than the in
flatable-cuff sphygmomanome-
ter.
2. An "oxymeter" to monitor
the amount Of oxygen In the
blood.
3. A device to measure either
the amount of air inhaled in
each breath or the amount in
hailed each minute Cor BOTH.
4. Electroencepha lograph
(brain-wave) electrodes that
can make q good contact
through the hair on the scalp.
S. A machine to measure the
flow Of blood through the ar
teries.

of would-be inventors.
Mr.. Douglas, a scientist with
Bendix-Pacific in California
was at Cape Canaveral to show
space agency officials a bio
belt-pack" he had designed. II
was an ingeniously rugged bum
die Of electronics about the size
Of three cigarette packages and
less than half a pound in
weight. It contained all the
gadgetry necessary for recelv-
ing and retransmitting medical
measurements such as intricate
brain and heart wave patterns,
Signals Needed
This is the sort Of thing, Mr.,
Douglas explained, that will be
necessary when space capsules
become roomy enough so men
can move around. In the Mer-
curry capsule and the two-man
Gemini spacecraft to come, men
are confined to their places and
can be monitored medically over
hard wire" circuits. In the
three-man Apollo craft, where
the astronauts will be mobile,
wires will have to be eliminated.
Although proud Of his inven-
ton, Mr.. Douglas deprecated 1t
mildly. I'VE could make it half
that size by going from stand
ard transiStors to molecular
electronics," he said.
But this Is not the problem.
The problem is to get decent
raw signals from the medical
sensors. Once you have the sig
mails, you can do anything you
want with them.
