ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Jan.
30.-Churches should not make
contracts with the Peace Corps,
a special committee of the

The committee, however,
lauded the "baSic Peace. Corps
concept" and recommended that
Lutheran young people be en-
couraged to volunteer for serv-
ice in the Government corps.
Maintenance of a proper
relationship between church

declared, dictates against

DecY BuiIdup
OF u. S. Arms

NEW YORK, Aug. 81 (AP).-
Some ITS educators from 6
dozen universities today ex.
pressed fear that the United
States may be building such g
huge armament that it will
make disarmament negotiations
impossible.
The fear of what was de-
scribed as a possible radical
shift" in United States defense
policy-aimed at building far
more armament than is re-
quired for deterrence" - was
contained in an open letter to
President Kennedy printed as
an advertisement in the New
York Times.
The letter asked whether the
present policy would not per
petuate an unlimited arms race
(and) block all progress toward
disarmament"
Believing that we aim at
overwhelming nuclear superior
ity, has the USSR any choice
but to maintain secrecy and
view our disarmament proposals
with extreme suSpicion?" The
letter asked.
Mr.. Kennedy was urged to
reduce the scale of our arms
program to fit a purely deter
rent strategy" and renounce
strategic use of nuclear wea-
pons except in response to a
nuclear attack"
Signers Of the letter included
teachers from practically every
Experimentation theology to
physics-at Boston, Brandeis
Tufts and Harvard Universities
and Massachusetts, Institute OF
Technology.
Also among the Signers were
smaller groups or individuals
from Wellesley College, North
eastern University, Simmons
College, Brown University, the
University of Massachusetts,
Worcester Polytechnical In
stitute and Worcester Founda-
ton.

May "a flight three times
around the world. .
! That was the report today
to a National AeronauticS and
Space Administration confer
ence-the first official post
flight conference held at this
new base of the Manned Space
flight Center.
( Project Mercury Engineer
John H. Boynton said:
"Astronaut Carpenter re-
ported that, when the clock
sequence (automatic timer had
counted down to zero, the
rockets did not ignite"
Incorrect Information
The braking rockets slow the
spacecraft,s 1880 mile = per =
hour flight. permitting it's re-
entry into the earth's atmos-
phere.
The rockets did not ignite
because of incorrect informa-
ton from scanners that seek
out the earth'S horizon.
The scaunerS, located around
the neck Of the Mercury space
craft, are frequently clouded by
the blazing rocket exhaust
when the escape tower is jet
tisoned in the early stages of
flight.
The troubled Scanners fed
incorrect position information
to the automatic systems all
through the flight.
This informat ion error
blocked the automatic firing of
the braking rockets.
Waited Two Seconds
THE pilot waited about two
seconds" Mr.. Boynton reported.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Aug. 81 (AP) Acting Secre-
tary-General u Thant has
given Katanga President Noise
TShombe a week to 10 days to
accept a new United Nations
progra INTO unity the Congo
peacefully.
If Mr.. TShombe rejects the
overture, Mr.. Thant announced
last night he will ask all U. N.
members to turn the economic
screws on Katanga and quit
buying Katangan copper and
cobalt. There is considerable
doubt that Belgium and Brit
ain, two Of Katanga's chief Gus
toners, would comply.
Mr.. Thant's program calls
for adoption of a federal con-
stitution to be drafted in the
next 80 days, agreement to
share the royalties from Ka-
tanga's rich mines with the i'm
poverished central government,
currency unification and inte-
grafton of Katanga forces into
the Congolese army in 80 days.
Would Ban Arms
Mr.. Thant called for all
member governments, mean
while, to bar all unauthorized
movements of mercenaries or
any military material TO the
Congo.
He said Robert Gardiner, his
Ghanaian chief representative
in the Congo, has been in
structed to present the program
to Congo Premier Cyrille
Adoula and to Mr.. Tshombe.
Mr.. Thant's statement said
Mr.. Tshombe should be able
to indicate his acceptance
promptly >. in a brief period. I"
An authorized U. N. source said
the Secretary General meant a
week or 10 days.
Sanction Threatened
Mr.. Thant threatened last
July 81 to impose economic
sanctions on Katanga to end
the unification deadlock and
then drew up his program,
which he discussed with a
number of delegates.
United States Secretary of
State Dean Rusk was among
those who conferred with Mr..
Thant here last week on the
details.

The big DC-8 was afloat for

I'VE think some bodies may

Officials said IL passengers
were missing but some were
known to have survived and
left the airport in the confu-
sion without notifying anyone.
The Panair do Brasil airliner

Expenditure Curve Rising

He indicated clearly that the
rising curve of military space
expenditures is nowhere near
its peak.
In reply to another question,
the Defense Secretary said he
had no information that the
Russian cosmonautS had ac-
tually attempted or managed to
link their two DRIFTING space
craft together.
Number l on the Secretary's
agenda at the news briefing
was an item which he conceded
may seem very small and re-
latively unimportant compared
TO the subjects in the news to-
day"
1t was a SIS million program
to provide assistance to the
government of Ecuador in
South America in building
farm-to market roads, drilling
wells and doing other civil
works projects.
These are very primitive
projects and I'm sure space
is as much on your mind today
as it is on mine" Mr.. Nc
Namara said. But it is only
through stability such as these
civic action programs will bring
that we can hope to reduce
expenditures on more tradi-
tional types of military aid"
Mr.. Mcnamara said the Ec-
uadorian project is directly in
the spirit of Mr.. Kennedy's Al
lance for Progress program for
mutual aid in Latin America

the lift-off power of Titan III
will be about rs million pounds
Development of the Titan III
will cost $808 million, the De-
tense Secretary said.
Mr.. Mcnamara pointed out
that the fiscal 1868 defense
budget includes about SIS bill
lion for military space pro-
/ grams.
He was asked about pros
poets for fiscal 1864 in view
of published reports that the
civilian Space Agency will re-
ceive a 80 per cent boost next
year from $3.8 billion to S.
billion.
A proportionate increase in
Pentagon space spending would
give the military a 50 billion
space budget.
/ Mr.. Mcnamara replied that
he did not wish to PREJUDICE
/ a budget which would not be
presented officially to Presi-
dent Kennedy until this fall
and to Congress until next Jan
uary. However. he recalled that
the President had told him
when he took the Pentagon
post that his task was to pro-
vide an adequate defense with
out regard to arbitrary money
ceilings.
