radio operators. They are
launched from rails by a charge
of compressed gas and are
capable of flying two hours
before refueling.
The water targets are hauled

of a large metal frame with a
canvas covering. They are a.

SBA Office
To Open On
Limited Basis

Congressman Harris B. Nc
Dowell, Jr. (D-Del.) announced
today that he had been sue
cessful In his efforts to bring
about an improvement In the
services and facilities of the
Small Business Administration
for Delaware. For the past six
months Congressman Nc
Dowell has been urging Admin
istrator John E. Horne to es-
tablish an office of the Small
Business Administration in
Delaware. Such an office would
come under the jurisdiction OF
the Regional Office in Phila-
delphia.
In a letter to Congressman
Mcdowell dated June 29, Ad-
ministrator Horne agreed to
hold the matter open and dis
cuss 1t with Edwin N. Rosa,

phia.
Continued negotiations by
Congressman Mcdowell witt
Small Business Administrator
Horne and Rosa have resulted
In a tentative agreement to es-
tablish an office In Dover ano
Wilmington on a limited basis
for a trial period. Further de-
tails of this plan are being
worked out in the District Of
flee in Philadelphia.
Congressman Mcdowell said
IL am, of course, highly graf.
flied that the Small Busines:
Administration is taking step;
to be of more assistance to the
business community of Del

MANY Delawareans have
urged me to try to get a brancl

First State. They have ex.
pressed their dissatisfaction a
having to travel from 20 to Isl
miles to and from Philadelphi;
to seek advice, or even obtaiI
the necessary forms for a bus

THE precedents for such ;
branch office are similar
offices In Maine, New Hamp'

attractive room seems to be
there but something is miss
ing. What is it?
Perhaps that room needs a
bright dab Of color to awaken
it from its somnolent state.
just a couple Of explosive
colored pillows or a pot of
hot pink cyclamen might do
the trick.
Something as simple as
that can shake a room out
Of its doldrums.
Maybe you thought the old

over the whole room, but
its dingy pattern seems to
wear a placard shouting:

In a room can throw your

Space Compact

1t is interesting that the Soviet
Union has agreed 20 work with the
United States in bilateral cooperative
program designed to promote the peace
full uses Of outer space. The agreement
is the elimination Of an exchange Of
views early this year between President
Kennedy and Premier Khrushchev. AS
formally announced in the United Ma
tions, 1t promises to speed up progress in
three fields meteorology, studies Of
earth magnetism and the development
Of a system Of DRIFTING satellites (such
as Telstar) for instantaneous global
communication.
To that end, we and the Russians
are committed to do the following %
Jointly contribute our capabilities, in
GLIDING the launching of instruments
like Tiros, toward the establishment Of
a sort Of worldwide Weather Bureau
that would operate network of DRIFTING
vehicles for the benefit OF all nations.
(2) Join in compiling a map of the
earth's magnetic field and acquire as
much new knowledge as possible in this
area TO help in the exploration of space.
And (3) cooperate in experiments with
our country's Echo II, passive" COM
munications satellite that is expected
TO play an important role in the de-
velopment OF such things as interconti-
mental television and telephone services.
However, although 1t is gratifying
that the Soviet Union is party to this
agreement, the agreement itself is
strictly limited in scope and signifi-
canoe. Certainly II does not indicate in
the slightest that the Kremlin is moving
toward acceptance Of American propos-
ais for strict policing against the mill
tary exploitation OF outer space Indeed,
II may well be that Krushchev g. Com
pany have entered upon this compact
only because they feel that they have
more TO learn from US than we have
from them - that our scientists are far
more knowledgeable than theirs in nom
military spatial activities. Still, regard
less Of such reservations, IL is welcome
news, even II not too significant, that
they have decided to be Just a little

In recent years the orchestra has
expanded from 86 TO 95 members, a
prerequisite 10 membership in the big
leagues. At the same time, the players
have won deserved increase in pay,
costing an additional $30,500 each OF
the past three years. This has run the
orchestra into a Sl5O,0OO deficit, the
largest ever faced.
Now TO retain some semblance OF

gifts and grants-the sustaining fund
campaign that precedes the general,
small-gift drive. Large gifts come from
wealthy patrons and corporations and
foundations Naturally, they have other
requests, from such as the National
Cultural Center, and the question must
arise: If I give my cultural dollar to
one, must give to the other? We who
have high hopes for the Cultural Center
can only suggest: Please do not forget
the living symphony, its 1874 concerts
a year (82 for school children), while
also supporting the Cultural Center
to come. Without the orchestra, the
realized center would be hollow victory.

Man in the Middle

Brazil'S President Joao Goulart is
man in the middle of an anguishing
complex Of political and economic prob
lens. On his ability to resolve them, and
even on the integrity of his efforts, turns
the question of whether this largest
country Of South America is to plunge
into deeper crisis that might bring a
return of military rule, or to restore Suf-
ficient confidence in its political fiscal
stability to warrant essential help from
outside sources
The circumstances under which Mr..
Goulart came to power have contributed
greatly to his difficulties. Considered a
leftist as Vice President, he unexpect-
eddy found the office above him vacant
when quixotic President Janio Quadros
abruptly resigned in late 1861. Before
Mr. Goulart moved up, however, military
leaders and conservative members of the
Congress joined in establishing a par
liamentary system that diluted the au-
thority of the presidency. On next jan
uary plebiScite will be held on restor-
ing full powers to the presidential office,
with the prospects believed favorable If
Mr.. Goulart can retain the support of
leftist and labor factions.
1t is this latter condition that has
sharpened the economic dilemma. Infla-
ton is almost a way of life in Brazil,
but 1t has reached a near-record level
during the past year. Both the domestic
budget and the international balance of
payments show large deficits, with ex-
orbitant government subsidies contrib
uting to the former and unsold SURPRISES
of coffee adding to the latter. In the
face Of this deteriorating situation, pri-
vate foreign investment in Brazil
dropped from $500 million in 1861 to
about $22 million this year, and the
International Monetary Fund froze some
standby credits pending restoration of
financial discipline. A additionally high
growth rate-about rs per cent in 1861
is expected to fall below per cent this
year, with some estimates as low as 4
per cent.
To meet this economic problem, the
Goulart administration has prepared a
sterilization (auSterity) program, but its
effective augmentation is suspected be-
cause of opposition from the same labor
and leftist groups on whose support Mr..
Goulart leans so heavily. There is also
a question about the Presidents own
commitment to curtail some of the in
flationary government spending. Fur
ther, there is the failure of the Brazilian
government to make settlement on ex-
preparation of American utilities, the
adoption Of new restrictions on remit
lance Of profits on foreign investments,
and Goulart foreign policy that is con-
Sidered soft" on Cuba'S Castro.
1t is against this background that
President Kennedy has spoken with I'M
usual bluntness about the most painful"
financial and monetary instability in
Brazil, with the added warning that
there is nothing this country can do
unless the problem is corrected in Brazil.
Presumably, Attorney General Robert F.
Kennedy delivered a similar message
possibly in even stronger language
to Mr.. Goulart in Brasilia. The next
few weeks will be fateful ones for Mr.
Goulart's administration and his country
