American, Eastern Planning
To Merge Into No. I Airline

NEW YORK, Jan. "a (AP).-
American Airlines and Eastern
Air Lines will combine into the
Nations biggest system if stock
holder and Government ap-
proval is forthcoming.
Merger plans were announced
yesterday by C. R. Smith, presi-
dent of American, and Malcolm
A. MacIntyre. president of
Eastern.
Mr.. Smith would be chairman
and chief executive officer. of
the new combine, with Mr..
Mcintyre president and second
in executive authority.
The consolidated line would
be called American Airlines,
erasing the name of the
pioneer Eastern Air Lines from
the roster of American carriers.
The proposal to create a
system with 5000 million in
assets, $4,000 employees and 400
aircraft will be submitted to
stockholders of both companies
and the Civil Aeronautics
Board.
The board, which has gen.
orally encouraged mergers, had
no immediate comment.

class letter postage would go up
to 5 cents an ounce, postcards
to 4 cents, air mail letters to 8
cents and air mail postcards
to 6 cents. This would pro-
duce an estimated $455 million.
Increases in second-class mail
rates on magazines and news
papers would bring in an addi-
tional 1884 million. Several
members tried unsucceSsfully to
prevent or hold down the pro-
posed rate increases in this cat
egory.
Davis Move Loses
A move by Representative
Davis, Democrat of Georgia, to
keep newspaper mailing rates
at present levels was defeated,
lis to 81. The House, however,
adopted an amendment for a
IA cents instead of IL cents a
pound rate on controlled cir
culation publications such as
"give-away" trade advertising
magazines. This would obtain
an extra $1.2 million in reve-
nueS.
The big surprise to Demo-
cratic as well as Republican
leaders came in House handling
of third class mail. A voice vote
raised such rates to obtain $78
million more than the admins

lion.
The $700 million total was
$79 million more than the
Administration recommended
This resulted largely from
higher rates voted by the House
yesterday on so-called Junk
mail"
The House had tentatively
approved the amended bill yes
terday, but was prevented from
taking a final vote until today
because Representative Gross,
Republican of Iowa, objected
to what he called a gag rule"
limitation of debate yesterday.
Mr.. Gross demanded a quorum
call this afternoon but did not
request a roll call on final
passage Of the bill.
The House was practically
ready to deliver to the Senate
today a bill increasing postal
rates to bring in an extra $500
million in annual revenue.

The House action gave
Democratic leaders their first
legislative victory of the new
session, but the Senate seemed
likely to trim the total closer

Touches Major Issue
Gen. Trudeau's raising of the
matter of who is doing the
censoring moved toward ar
area of major controversy in
the Senate investigation. II
was learned that Secretary OF
Defense Mcnamara issued a
directive to Defense Depart
ment personnel last Monday
that they should refuse to
answer any questions as to
which censor handled what
speech or article.
The directive follows through
on a stand that Mr., McNamars
took last year before the Senate
Armed Services Committee. He
said then that he assumed full.
responsibility for what hac
been done as to censoring o.
speeches and that specific jobs
done by particular individual'
would not be disclosed.
Gen, Trudeau's testimon,
and records introduced at the
hearing indicated that mucf
of the censorship of the gen,

Snow and SIeet
Cause No Alarm

Snow, sleet and rain, or mix
lures thereof, fell in the Wash
ington area today, but the
Weather Bureau saw no reason
for apprehension.
Forecasters based their op-
timism on a flow of southerly
air that is expected to boost the
temperature into the 40s.
This morning the band Of
snow and sleet extended as fal
as IS miles to the west. Most
of the particles quickly melted
and presented no traffic handi-
cap, although motorists were
advised to beware of possible
slick patches.
The forecast called for driz-
zle or light rain tonight with q
low of 35 degrees, and some
chance for rain tomorrow with
a high of so.

U. S. Set to Luunch
Satellite for Britain

LONDON. Jan. "a (AP).-
Britain's first space satellite
will probably be put into orbit
by the Americans from Cape
Canaveral at the end of March,
informed sources said yesterday.
The satellite, U.K. l, weighs
$50 pounds and will be loaded
with instruments. It is expected
to remain about 600 miles out
in space for some time.

fuller explanation.
They could not pinpoint the
exact cause of the malfunction
they said, nor did they know
exactly where in the ocean the
payload landed. They statec
positively, however, that it fSiv
over Cuba and splashed into
the Caribbean somewhere south
Of there.
This apparently was one oi
the first things checked when
1t became apparent that the
shot was not going to be sue
ceSsful.
Concern had been expressed
over the possibility of another
"cow killing" charge which
Cuba might conceivably bring
before the hemisphere foreign
ministers meeting now under
way lin Uruguay. Military Of
ficials estimated the cost oi
the shot-obviously a total loss
at around $3.5 million.
Payl0ads Listed
There is no "backup" for the
5-in-1 satellite, Admiral Mon
roe said. But he added that it
is reasonable to assume that ali
the payload packages will be
duplicated and sent up within
the next several months.

loads are essential to fuller
understanding of the way the

New Move r:

By GEORGE SHERMAN
Star Staff Writer

PUNTA DEL ESTE, Uruguay!
Jan. 24.-The United States is
circulating a new position pa I
per here today which would
suspend Cuba from Organiza-
ton of American States organs
and impose a collective ern !
barge on trade and arms ship !
mentS, but refrain from a com !
plete diplomatic break with tho
Castro government.
This is the first concrete
version of an Argentine prol
posal which has been circulat1
ing by word of mouth here for
three days. A United States
source says the United States
paper is a bargaining PROPOSE !
ton for talks with the so-called
bloc of seven countries who opl
pose economic and diplomatic
sanctions against Castro Cuba:
The United States delegation
still was waiting for a position
paper the Undersecretaries OF
the seven countries worked on
throughout the night and this
morning. The seven are Argent
tina, Brazil. Mexico, Chile!
Bolivia, Ecuador and Haiti.
Follow TrujillO Pattern
The United States proposal
builds upon the model OAS
resolution isolating the Trujllld
regime in the Dominican Rel
public at the Costa Rica COM
ference of foreign ministers ir
August. 1850. The present
formula would refer furthel
legal and diplomatic steps
against Cuba to the OAS CounI
Gil in Washington.
But the present conference
under the United States plan,
would oust Cuba from the OAs
council and the Inter-American
Defense Board
A unique feature of the
United States paper is a pro-
posal that a special anti-sub.
versive subcommittee be set ur
in the Caribbean to operate
under the Inter-Amercian De-
fense Board. The job of the
committee and board would be
to ferret out Cuban guerrilla
and theological infiltration OF
countries threatened by Castro
geographically.
Hope to End 'Seesaw'
Members Of Secretary oi
State Rusk's delegation believe
they have the necessary two:
thirds majority of IA foreign
ministers to support this posi-
ton. They are becoming AJAX
ious to end the seesaw, behind
the-scenes debate on action
here for fear that the confu-
sion will build up an image OF
weakness about the conference,

tactics of the Cuban delegation
headed by President Dorticos is
to let the division and confu-
sion spread in the hope o1
bringing a complete rift in the
nter-American system.

pounds of payload fell into the
Caribbean Sea somewhere south
of Cuba a few minutes after
the launching.
It was an inauspiciouS start
for what had been billed as
Americas biggest week in
space" Two more important
launchings, one to land an in
strument package on the moon
and the other to put astronaut
John H. Glenn, jr., in orbit, are
scheduled for later in the week.
Had this mornings launching
been successful. it would have
set a space-age record for null
tiple satellites. Never before
have more than three payloads
been sent up in a single launch
ing.

But hopes for a brilliant

when the second stage failed
to provide~the necessary push
to achieve orbit.

side rocket testing base, the

Action Slowed
On Urban Bill
House Unit Okuys
College Aid PIun

The House Rules Committee
today quickly cleared for floor
action a bill for college ano
university construction finan-
cial aid out moved much more
slowly on the administrations
proposal for creation of a De-
partment of Urban Affairs and
Housing.
The bill for Federal aid to
higher education was given
priority earlier today by COM
mittee Chairman Howard w.
Smith, Democrat of Virginia.
The Urban Affairs Department
bill had been listed as the first
measure to be considered at
the committees initial meeting
of the new congressional ses-
sion.
Mr.. Smith announced that
the hearing on the latter meas
ure would begin late this after
noon. He would not predict
whether the committee would
send the bill to the House floor.
Odds apparently were against
a favorable vote, with a combi-
nation of Republic a n and
Southern Democrats opposing
clearance.
President Could Act
The committee voted unani-
mously to send the education
aid bill to the floor. Speaker
Mccormack told reporters ii
probably will be brought ul
early next week.
Although opponents Of the
urban affairs bill hope to pre-.
vent it from reaching the House
floor, they also are aware that
President Kennedy could set ur
the department through a re.
organization order which woule
60 into effect automatically
unless specifically rejected by
House or Senate.
Some members of the COM
lmittee indicated today that
Chairman Smith and other op.
ponents of the bill are in nc
great hurry to have the COM
mittee dispose of the bill anc
thus give the White House ar
opportunity to send to Congress
a reorganization plan.
Smith Has Reservations
At the outset, Mr.. Smith dis
closed some reservations abou
the school aid bill. AS original!
introduced by Representative
Edith Green, Democrat of Ore
gon, last year, the bill woulc
have provided for Federal as
sistance for scholarships. Mrs
Green told the Rules COMMITTEES
today that the scholarship pro
vision was eliminated and tha'
the measure now would provide
only for a five-year program o.
matching grants totaling $18(
million annually and long-tern
! loans of $12O million annually
! for construction of academic
facilities.
Mr.. Smith noted that Mrs
! Green's bill, nevertheless, re-
tanned the little college Aca'
demic and Scholarship Act" HI
asked whether this would leavt
the way open for a possible
House floor amendment to pro,
vide Federal funds for scholar
ships. Mrs. Green replied tina
she would offer no such amend
ment but that some other mem
J ber conceivably might do so.

No One Is Hurt;

PARIS, Jan. "A (AP Seven
bombs presumably set by the
European Secret Army ex-
ploded in rapid succession to-
day in widely separate parts
of Paris.
Targets were Frenchmen
who oppose the campaign to
keep Algeria French in def
ance of President de Gaulle's
plans for independence.
Four apartment houses were
damaged, but there was no
report of injuries. One bomb
went off in front of the home
of Hubert Beuve-Mery, direc-
tor of the liberal newspaper lie
Monde. Another exploded at
the home of Socialist Alain
Savary, a former government
minister.
Yet another bomb went off
in front of the home of a young
lieutenant who last week in
Bone, Algeria, shot and killed
a 16-year-old boy caught put
ting up Secret Army posters,
police said.
All Thought Plastic Bombs
All the explosives were be-
lieved caused by plastic bombs,
favorite weapon of the Secret
Army.
Nine Of the bombs shook
Paris last night. Monday
rightiSts were blamed for the
bombing of the French Foreign
Ministry that killed one person
and injured several others.
Meanwhile the French tri-
color was flown today through
out AlgierS' European areas in
a massive demonstration of op-
position to Algerian independ-
ence.
The flag display was ordered
by the Secret Army, which also
called for a 75-minute general
strike late this afternoon and
told the European population to
turn off the lights in city homes
for the last Is minutes. The
strike was expected to paralyze
the city.
The Secret Army Organiza-
ton used the occasion of the
anniversary of the 1860 set
tiers uprising to demonstrate
anew its hold on the European
population and it's determine
ton to keep Algeria French.
MOslem Walls Bare
In sharp contrast to the Eu-
ropean flag display, the walls
and windows on Moslem quar-
ters were bare.
Police halted traffic on the
city's main streets in expecta-
ton Of disorders. Troop patrols
deployed through the city and
Army helicopters lowered over
head.
AS stores opened this morn
ing merchants hung out flags
and many decorated their show
windows in the French red,
white and blue. Flags were
strung along balconies of apart
ment buildings and flew from
banks and the big hotels.
Groups of Europeans gathered
in the streets and some loudly
voiced hostility to President de
Gaulle and his Algerian policies.
Wreaths Removed
Police removed wreaths placed
in the early morning hours on
spots where seven European
civilians died in a clash with
gendarmes two years ago. The
wreaths had tricolor ribbons
and bore inscriptions, ITO
Those Who Died for a French
Algeria"
There still was no sign of
the special security measures
promised by civil authorities
Monday for protection against
terrorism. A shortage of troops
was blamed for the delay.
MoSlem and French terrorists
continue to lash Algeria's major
cities with submachinegun and
bomb attacks. The count yes
terday was IA killed and 81
injured in 20 bloodlettings ac-
ross the country.
