David did not explain exactly

some reappraiSal papers for

A House Public Works sub

state highway system, heard
testimony yesterday that w.
David Stalnaker, with no back
ground of appraisal work. was
paid $23,325 in approximately
one year by the West Virginia
Highway Commission and in
court fees.
The father, j. Walter Stall
maker, made the assignments
to appraisers. George Kopecky,
committee investigator, said
the younger Stalnaker received
more assignments and made
considerably more money than
any of the other appraisers.
The StalnakerS then, about
three years ago, lived in Park

sympathies, mapped a plan

The plans were drawn up
by 40 labor chieftains who met

plans to the local press.
The action came as the value
of the peso dropped to a new
low and the economic woes of
President Jose Maria Guido'S
government mounted.

In one brighter spot, private

French Told
Europe Needs
Joint A-Force

PARIS, July II (AP).-Ths
French National Assembly,
opening debate on President
de Gaulle's nuclear strike force
proposal. heard an appeal yes
terday for a European multi
national deterrent instead.
Henri Dorey Of the Popular
Republican Party told the AS
sembly France should discuss
such an idea with its Euro
pean partners-a reference to
present and prospective mem
bers of the Common Market.
Mr.. Dorey said Premier
Georges Pompidou's govern
ment should launch negotia-
tons with Frances European
allies on joint development Of
nuclear power for both de-
Tense and peaceful purposes.
The issue of a French ma
tional nuclear force comes up
in the governments proposed
supplemental budget for 1862,
including 200 million francs
($40 million) for a separation
plant to produce enriched ura-
mum 235. The plants output
could be used for French nu-
clear bombs.
Mr.. Dorey also criticized the
governments request for funds
on the ground that 200 million
francs did not give any exact
idea of the extra money which
eventually would be needed.
One right-wing deputy filed
a point Of order whose effect
would be to bury the govern
ment's request In committee.
This motion will be discussed
today. but it is expected to be

Is latest communications triumph for
America arising from telephone research
The worlds first private enterprise communi-
cations satellite is now being used for dramatic
experiments in relaying telephone calls and tele-
vision internationally.
Its name: Telstar. 1t was launched from Cape
Canaveral at Bell System expense by the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration
Telstar receives signals beamed to it from a
ground station, ampli6es them and transmits them
to another station on the ground below-perhaps
an ocean away from the first one. The new satellite
thus acts a microwave relay station in the sky,
enabling voices, TV pictures and data messages to
leap thousands of miles in new and exciting way.
The ground stations in the us. now being
used for Telstar were built by the Bell System at
Andover, Maine and Holmdel, New Jersey Or
CARNATIONS abroad have built stations in England
and France. The latter near replica of the station in
Maine, is being assembled with Bell System coopera
ton A receiving station in Italy will be ready late
this year, and another in West Germany next year.
Telstar is first major experimental step toward
a worldwide satellite communications system that
was first proposed as a practical venture at Bell
Telephone Laboratories. Progress toward such a
system would not have reached its present state
without continuing research and development by
the private communications industry, including six
fundamental Bell System contributions-the tran
sistor, the solar battery the travelling wave tube,
ruby masers, the waveguide, and new antennas for
the ground stations with innovations in circuitry.
Above all else, Telstar is the latest achievement
in amending Bell SYSTEM quest-the search for
ways to make your telephone service still better,
more economical, and more useful.
