tive right and that the President
will drift leftward without his in
fluence.
The latter is patiently untrue.
The conservatism that exists in
the President has a chip-off-the-
old-block quality that seems dur
able in any foreseeable circum-
stance.
The difference between him and
his father seemed largely to be
the differences of a generation,
the transition from a conserva-
tism that tended to be rock-like to
a conservatism that is searching
for the constructive and useful
elements in the liberal philosophy.
Yet it could be said also that
the father contributed to the sons

to help themselves is clear heri-
tage of his fathers preoccupa-
ton for many years with the ap-
plication of his own wealth to
worthy charitable purpose. This
aspect of his fathers character
made an impression on John
Kennedy that has been discernible
since his early days in politics.
The Conservative Note
In the 1860 campaign the father
would clearly have preferred that
his son run on more conserva-
tive note but if the candidate
had followed his fathers advice he
would almost certainly have been
defeated.
But without what is probably
the greatest gift that Joseph Ken
nedy bestowed on his children
he would also have been defeated.
This is the quality Of the all-out
effort, the fierce disinclination to
accept defeat in the reach for
victory that extends to the last
gasp.

Squotters to Lose Their Estate Rights

In their first six months of
operation, two Interior Depart
ment field men. working under
Graham HolliSter, a special as
sistant to Secretary Udall, nego-
tiated agreements with 316 of the
approximately 900 squatters, with
out meeting single refusal. The
Treasury has collected about
1924, 900 as first inStallment on
the squatters' rent. The Interior
men hope to have the remaining
$50 Colorado River squatters
signed up by the end of this
year.
The agreements give each squat
ter the right to continued use of
the land for the next Az years
until the end of 1865 for those
who signed up in 1861. Rental
value is determined or the basis
of unimproved land, with the
Squatters given the right to retain
any Improvements homes, docks
or what have you-that they wish
to move before their lease expires.
The Next Move?
Tn charge for past use Of the
land runs up to $50 per cent Of
the annual rent for those who
have been on the scene for a
while. Payments for past rent can
be spread over the 4l2-year period
to ease the immediate economic
impact. The same time payments
scheme has been arranged for
farmers who must repay the Gov
ernment subsidies they improperly
received for crops grown on Fed
eral land.
What happens to the squatters
at the end of the AZ years is
uncertain. The Interior Pepart-
ment's basic idea is to clear at
least a 290-foot strip along each
bank of the river for public rec
reation use. Further back, there
will be private recreation facili-
ties, farming and residential de-
velopments.

Cape Canavera|: Embarkaton Port to Adventure

advises it that given missile is
ready for launch. This team is
headed by DR.. Robert Payne, Al,
a thin, bespectacled physicist,
who apparently has learned to
keep his own emotions out of
rocketry.
When Missile Is Reody
Actually, it's gotten to be pref
ty routine by now" he says. You
resolve the major problems in
your own mind and then act. If
you thought only of the man
aboard or the cost or the conse-
quenceS in national prestige,
you'd never say go. All these pro-
grams involve a certain calculat-
ed risk. If you looked for 100 per
cent assurance, you'd never
launch one"
One of the toughest jobs on the
Cape belongs to Maj. Winton Ham
mond, a tall, wry man who dis
guises his concerns with under
stated humor. Maj. Hammond is a
range safety officer. whose job it
is to throw the destruct switch
that will blow up an errant or
malfunctioning missile.
Asked once how it felt to ex-
plode a $2-million missile, he said,
well, it sort of ruins your day."
AS usual, Maj. Hammond will
have his finger about 10 inches
from the destruct switch mot
too far and not too close" when
Col. Glenn goes up. He says he
will feel mot much different"
with a man aboard because Col.
Glenn's safety will not be in his
hands.
Should something go wrong
with the missile, before it could
be destroyed, Col. Glenn's capsule
would be automatically elected by
its own rockets out of the danger
area and then would come down
in the sea by parachute.
Check on the Rocket
Maj. Hammond works before a
plotting board with a headset
through which he receives infor-
nation on the rockets perform
ance from five different sources.
If the big bird starts to misbe-
have, he usually has only a few
seconds to receive the informa-
ton, study it, make his decision
and throw the switch.
Throwing that SWITCH" says
1t. Col. Harry E. Cannon, range
safety officer in charge, sis some
thing you never get used to. Every
time you do, you think, there goes
a couple million dollars. And as
thoroughly trained as you are, as
deliberate as you were, you can't
help wondering each time, did !
make the right decision at the
right time or should I have wait

is being solved now, but only aft
er years of headaches.
The problem is a tough one,
because the Governments legal
case rests on an action some so
years old, of doubtful propriety
and long ignored. The squatters,
many of whom have sizeable in
vestments at stake, have not only
political pressure but some equi-
table claims on their side.
1t was back in 1902 that the
Bureau of Reclamation withdrew
from private use some 81 million
acres of Colorado River valley
land which it thought it might
sometime need for reclamation
projects. The need was obviously
exaggerated - as evidenced by the
fact that the Bureau has whit
tied its reserve down to $4,000
acres now and as the years
passed, and the Government
failed to use the property, private
settlers moved in.
The first recorded squatters
were on the scene by 1912. Most
of the early ones engaged in
farming and ranching, irrigating
the land with water drawn, lille
gally, of course, from the Colo
RADIO. The Government asserts,
however, that IS per cent of the
trespass has occurred in the last
six years, as private spectators
have moved in to capitalize on the
growing recreation value of the
river
uiIt-Up Sections
They have built marinas, camp
sites, trailer parks, motels, res
taurants, gas stations and stores
on Government land-and many
of them have even fenced their"
property and posted signs against
"treSpasSers.
During most of this time, the
Government has done no more
to combat squatting than occa-
sionaly sending the trespassers a
Evening star., 1962-01-14

registered letter saying, in effect:
Dear Sir: You are on Govern
ment land. Please move" There
was no follow-up action, because
there were no enforcement agents
and besides, the Government had
no plans for doing anything with
the land.
The Eisenhower Administration,
however, became concerned with
the mushrooming problem and in
1859 secretary of Interior Fred
Seaton ordered suits filed to re-
move the squatters from the land.
This provoked a storm of pro-
test, and no voice was louder in
decrying the action than that of
Stewart Udall, then a Congress-
man from Arizona and now the
Secretary of Interior. Mr.. Udall
said the forced evictions were un-
fair to his constituents and
pointed out, among other things,
that removing the agricultural
SquatterS alone would take $34
million year out of the economy
of his area.
The first test suits ordered by
Secretary Seaton begged down in
the courtS-none was ever brought
to final verdict-and Mr.. Udall
inherited the problem when he
took over Interior last January.
The shape of his proposed solu-
ton was revealed last April and,
after a series of meetings in which
the original plan was modified to
meet some of the squatters' OBJ
jections, it was put into effect
last August.
individual Agreements
The kernel of the Udall plan
is negotiation of individual agree
ments, in which each squatter &C
knowledges Government title to
"hiS" land and in return is given
a temporary use permit at an
agreed-upon rental figure, cover
ing his past, present and future
tenancy.

he must decide, should something
appear wrong in the astronaut's
responses, to bring him down

The Arizona Republic Of

Mrs. Judd, 81, escaped from
the hospital Monday night,
slipping out an unlocked door
and across a section Of fenced
knocked down by freeway
builders.
The escape was the seventh
in % years for Mrs. Judd, con-
victed 80 years ago Of killing
two women.
Hospital Supt. Samuel Wick
said Mrs. Judd, once called "the
tiger woman" is no longer con-
sidered dangerous.
Mrs. Judd shot two women
friends while they slept, cut
the bodies apart and shipped
them in trunks to Los Angeles.
She rode the same train as her
baggage. A railroad clerk
opened the luggage and dis
covered the bodies.
Mrs. Judd was sentenced to
hang but 72 hours before the
scheduled execution, she was
declared insane and committed
