Godfrey on Dulles:
Wrong-Woy Runwoys

1t appeared unlikely that the
opening of Dulles would be
delayed.
Najeeb Halaby, head Of the
Federal Aviation Agency, took
the news of Mr.. Godfrey's
criticism calmly.
II respect his opinion on
many things" said Mr.. Halaby.
But those who designed the
airport had all the prevailing
winds data at their disposal"
Mr.. Halaby also noted that
Dulles was we'll under way by
the time he took over at the
FAA.
1.-THE runwayS were already
built" he said. 1T would be
pretty hard-even for the New
Frontier-to lift 1000 feet of
concrete runways.
IT guess" he concluded
thoughtfully, 1.-The public will
| lust have to choose between
Generals Eisenhower and
Quesada and Arthur Godfrey"
No Complaints Yet
Questioned on the possibility
that wounded pride had trig'
gered the Godfrey blast, Mr.
Halaby declined to say whether

vited to appear at tomorrow

An international institute of
science and technology was
proposed today to take research
and education in the Western
world beyond the scope OF pres
Ient universities.
The proposal came from a
working group of scientists from
North Atlantic Treaty Organi-
cation nations headed by
DR.. James r. Killian of the
Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology.
The scientists, in a report
Issued by the North Atlantic
Council, said they found a COM
lpelling need for creation of an
institute that would set a new
pattern for advanced education
/ in the sciences.
The institute, which would
cost about $56 million during
the years it takes to get into
operation, would be devoted tc
graduate and post-doctora
studies and operate at the
pinnacle of the university
system"
Financing Outlined
1t would be financed by con-
tributions from nations taking
part in the program, and Later
also by private donations.
1t is planned, the council re-
port said, to supplement rathei
than duplicate the sciencC
and engineering department.

U.S.Offers NATOHeIp
To Form NucIeor Force

PARIS, Nov. Is (AP).-The
United States today offered to
help European members of the
North Atlantic Alliance with
problems of forming their own
integrated nuclear force.
George w. Ball, Undersecre-
tary of State, in a speech to
the annual NATO Parliament
tarianS' Conference, said the
United States is willing to place
its experience at the disposal
of the European members in
the formation of such a force
His speech obviously referred
to American experience in han
ding such weapons and not on
how to make them. Mr.. Ball
was referring mostly to the
capabilities and use Of a nu-
clear force.
Referring to Europe's evident
desire to play a larger role
in nuclear defense, Mr.. Ball said
should other NATO nations SC
desire, we are ready to give
serious consideration to- the
creation of a genuinely multi
lateral medium range ballistiC
missile force fully co-ordinatec
with the other deterrent force:
of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization"
Mr.. Ball said 1t was not ur
to the United States to say how
such a force should be manned
financed or organized, ther
added:
But 1t is a proper respon'
sibility of the United States
which has had so much expert
ence in the nuclear field, tt
make available to others ou
information and ideas with re
spect to the characteristics ant
capabilities of a multilatera
force.

The Federal Government

millions of dollars building
Dulles International Airport
(Which opens tomorrow, but
it may all be ruined because OF
one little mistake:
Nobody thought to consult
Arthur Godfrey.
AS a result. the well-known
entertainer disclosed yesterday,
the runways at Dulles are laid
out in the wrong direction for
the prevailing winds in that
part of Virginia.
Mr.. Godfrey is himself a IL
censed pilot-as the Federal
aviation people very well know.
In 1855 they fined him $500 for
flying his DEB too close to an
Ozark Air Lines plane near
Aurora, Ill. The year before he
was grounded for six months
for "buzzing" the control tower
at the Teterboro IN. j. Airport
Squire of Beacon Hill
Mr.. Godfrey, a New York
City native who is now the
squire of Beacon Hill Farm ir
the Virginia countryside moi
far from Dulles Airport, mad
his startling disclosure abou
the runways in an article il
the Weekly Loudoun Times
Mirror, published in Leesburt
LAS anyone who lives /
Loudoun knows land woul
have been glad to tell if asked
the prevailing winds in our par
of the country are from tn
southwest-about 240 degrees.
The Dulles runwayS, however
run 10/190 degrees, or just 81
degrees off. according to Mr.
Godfrey's calculations. The al
ternate runway is better, bur
not by much, he writes: 1t il
laid out 10000 degrees.
"Since we rarely have 6
southeast wind here" he ex'
plains, this will mostly serve
the northwest gales that bea'
us to a pulp in the winter anC
usually blow at their peak from
800 to 800 degrees"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-11-16

And we are now in the
process of doing So"
Mr.. Ball prefaced all this
with a statement that from a
strictly military standpoint"
the United States feels the
alliance does not have an ur-
gent need for European
nuclear contribution.
