ported today that two Soviet
reconnaissance planes flew over
Alaska yesterday, in violation
of United States air space.
The United States protested
to Moscow today these OVER
flights of United States ter
ritory."
A note released by the State
Department declared the United
States Government expects
that the Soviet government
will take all necessary meas
ures to prevent any repetition"
The Soviet government an
nounced in Moscow it had re-
ceived the protest a few min
utes before the State Depart
ment announcement.
A State Department spokes-
man said that this is the first
clearly established incident Of
a Soviet overnight Of the
United States"
Ship Inspected"
Another Soviet plane Is re-
ported to have inspected" a
United States ship in the
Pacific several DAYS ago in
another incident emphasizing
the Soviet Unions recent ex-
pansion of its aerial recon-
Nuisance activities. Defense
Secretary Mcnamara has re-
ported similar long range re-
connaissance over United States
ships in the Atlantic.
Officials at first said pri-
vately there was no interrogation
Of the Soviet planes. but later
said this was incorrect.
The Defense Department said
that several F-l02 Air Force
fighters were sent UP from
Alaskan bases and that there
was interception" of the two
Soviet planes.
BY interception. the Penta-
gon explained that the fighters
flew near the Soviet craft and
followed them during their
flight over Alaskan territory.
A Pentagon spokesman said
that although there was mo
visual contact" with the Rus
slams, their course and the posi-
ton Of the American intercept
tors was closely followed by
radar.
The Soviet planes flew at
attitudes ranging from 1900
to $4,000 feet at speeds between
$50 and 400 knots, he said.
The radar-tracked course
placed their deepest penetra-
ton into Alaskan airspace at
about 30 miles, the Pentagon
said. The two craft appeared
to have approached Gin TRAIL"

The Pentagon was not able
to say whether any shots, mis-
siles or rockets, were fired by
the American Air Force inter-
ceptors.

The two planes flying sep
arate courses were over United
States territory for about IS
minutes each. the protest note

He has a reputation for

Namara took over.
Receivers After Surgery
Last fall, Mr.. Vance was out
of action for weeks because of
a back ailment that required
surgery. He has recovered and
is putting in full time at his
desk.
The factor that apparently
has dropped Mr.. Vance into
second place for the Gilpatric
job is his so far brief tenure
as Army Secretary.
Mr.. Mcnamara has been
counting on Mr.. Vance to re-
vitalize the Army and to super

Mr.. Gilpatric, suave New

given notice he plans to step
out as Deputy Secretary of
Defense some time between
July and october to return to
private practice.
Mr.. Mcnamara and President
Kennedy repeatedly have not
yet made up their minds who
will replace Mr.. Gilpatric.
Heavy Burden
Whoever it turns out to be
will have to take over an ex-
tremely heavy workload. AS
Deputy Secretary, Mr.. Gilpatric
has shouldered a great share
of the burden of running the

Although Mr.. Gilpatric and
Mr.. Mcnamara are dissimi-

Police Seek

Only One Witness
To Offer; Tuwes
Plans New Test
BY WILLIAM DUKE
Star staff Writer

ANNAPOLIS, Mar. 16.-The
most wanted man" in Mary
land State police files today
is a figure In dark glasses and
broad-brimmed hat who was
reported to have offered $500
for a vote against the anti-slot
machine bill.
State police and the attorney
generals office began the
search for the man at the
direction Of Gov. Tawes last
night, as the administration
kept up q search of its own
for more votes to support the
slots bill.
The measure, which would
outlaw the one-armed bandits
within five years, was defeated
by two votes on Wednesday. 1t
was revived by the House of
Delegates in parliamentary
maneuver yesterday and final
consideration will be given
Monday.
Talks With Mitchell
State Police Capt. Thomas
Smith, head of the special in
vestigations unit, started his
inquiry yesterday by talking to
the only person who saw the
mystery man"-Delegate Clar-
ence M. Mitchell III, of Balti-
more's 4th district.
In the midst of heated de-
bates Thursday, Mr.. Mitchell
informed his colleagues that he
had been approached in the
State House corridors and Of
fered money Ito take a walk
or to vote against" Gov. Tawes'
legislation to outlaw the ma
chimes in the four Southern
Maryland counties where they
are now legal.
Mr.. Mitchell said yesterday
that he told the State Police
the same thing he told the
House - that the man was
standing at the top of the main |
State House stairway and that
he wore dark glasses and a
hat.
The investigation comes
when the administration Is
taking a last effort to get the
70 votes necessary to pass the
bill when it comes up for re-
consideration Monday.
Yesterday. the administra-
tons steamroller put through
a motion TO reconsider the bill.
1t also pushed through another
motion to delay the final vote
until next week.
The administration was
stalling for time to allow tenn
pers to cool in the wake of Mr..
Mitchell's sensational dis
closure. His statement came
at a time when the House was
already divided and angry at
insinuations made the night
before that gambling money
had swayed % votes to defeat
the Governors bill.
Reason for Delay
Delegate Thomas H. Lowe,
chairman of the House Judi
ciary Committee, told the
House that the delay on the
test vote until Monday was
necessary because many men,
bers were absent yesterday.
I'VE don't want it to appear
as If there have been any
shady deals" he said.
Under the rules. however. the
administration must make its
final move Monday. II the
Monday vote fails. the bill dies,
at least for this session.

There was no comment at all
from Washington on Soviet
troop movements out of Cuba
repeatedly on direct orders
from Mr.. Kennedy.
Four Russian ships had sailed
earlier with units of the Soviet
armed forces which the United
States estimated numbered H.
500 in Cuba at the beginning
Of February. The United States
said there were 22,500 here at
the height of last October's
crisis.
There was no official an
nouncement on how many Ler-

nor what their military CLASH
fication was.
Cruise Atmosphere
All yesterday, hundreds OF
young Russians, clad in sports
shirts and Stacks, poured on to
the old Ward Line pier where
the ship was tied up. They were
driven to the harbor in drak
Soviet army trucks, many Of
which also we're loaded with
bed-rolls and suitcases.
The young men carried small
bags and packages, like tour
lists souvenirs. and the whole
affair had more the atmos-
phere of a weekend Caribbean
cruise than a transatlantic
troop movement.
The Nakhimov formerly was
the German ship Berlin. The
Soviet Union took her over as

feat of Hitler. Last December

is no consolation to anyone that the

'Foreseen' Emergency

According to the Montgomery
County Council, the serious conditions
Of overcrowding in county schools this
year do not constitute an unforeseen
emergency" Therefore, it says, it is
legally powerlesS to grant funds to
hire urgently needed teachers.
No one will contest the first part
of the statement.
The present emergency was not
Unforeseen" 1t was foreseen-and
forecaSt-by virtually everyone, as long
ago as last April, when the council
rejected an urgent appeal from the
school board for funds, as part of its
regular budget, to hire 200 new teach
ers. There was no mystery about the
basis for the request. A number of
classes were overcrowded last year.
With several thousand new students
anticipated this fall, the 200 additional
teachers would barely have maintained
the old teacher-pupil ratio.
In June, during the summer recess,
the school board renewed its appeal,

On Federal Pay

I have just written a letter
to President Kennedy to pro-
test against salary rises for
congressman and other high
level public officials. I think
the matter is serious enough
to warrant public discussion.
1t would require a long es-
say to expound my basic the
sis, that the fat in our econo-
my is in management, which
no longer depends on pro-
prietorship. All the evils of
craftsmanship support m a n
agement. There can be fat
also on the management le-
vel in government. Industrial
leaders are not good advo-
c ates for government pay
rises. Overprivilege has
blurred their perspectives on
public service.

AS the poSseSSor Of one of the
worlds rareSt talents, we have always
taken a detached view of automation.
While automation might be a serious
national problem, it didn't really affect
us because our rare talent is non-auto-
matable. Or so we thought.
This is the kind of pride that goes
before a downfall. For we note with
diSmay that a firm in Bethesda has
been given contract to design a ma
chine to duplicate our precious talent.
BY virtue of vast experience, which
began with the translation of scrubbed
reports from country correspondents,
we have learned to tell, with consider
able accuracy, what people meant to
write. We can fill in a missing or
garbled word and even fill out an in
complete thought.
Most pharmacists share this rare
talent. They can translate the scrubbed
Latin of physician into a useful pre-
Scription.
Good secretaries have it, too. They
can find the sense, If there's any there,
in the boss vaguest doodles.
The most talked about posSeSSor Of
this talent was the typeSetter for New
York newspaper who alone could read
the handwriting Of his famous editor.
One day, an office jokester dipped a
hens feet in ink and let her run across
a sheet of paper. The typesetter set
an editorial which was so good the editor
didn't realize he hadn't written it.
Now, in a project called Advanced

Data Systems Center is trying to devel-
op machines that will read blurred or
garbled text. Using logic 1--WE can tell

WORTHY of Inclusion

Now that UGF season is
here again, 1t is appropriate
to note the continued abb
sence Of Planned Parent
hood, Inc, from UGF.
With the rate Of illegitima-
cy and the referral Of cases
to this agency by the District
Government at an all-time
high, the need for and the
services rendered by Planned
Parenthood, Inc, are greater
than ever.
If the plea for unity made
by Pope Paul is to have any
practic al meaning at the
grass-roots level, the Catho-
lie organizations which were
origin ally responsible for
Planned Parenthood's expul-
sion from UGF should take
the lead in welcoming
Planned Parenthood back
into the fold. Such a action
need not be an endorsement
of Planned Parenthood'S
mission but merely a recog-
milton that a public service is
rendered to those who need
and seek its services.
On the basis of communi-
ty-wide service, Planned Par
enthood, Inc, is as worthy
of inclusion in UGF as any
presently constituent agency.

Bum Idea

The search for way to put Presi-
dent Diem and the Nhu family on a
leash has turned up what passes for an
idea: Withhold some Of the economic aid
appropriated for Wet Nam. In this way,
it is argued, the United States can pres
sure the Diem regime to reform-per-
hapS even get rid of brother Nhu and
his transforming wife.
Military aid would be continued as
planned. This would permit the Wet
nameSe army to get on with the war.
But deliberate pinch would be put on
the VietnameSe economy. A little more
initiation, a little less capital and fewer
imports would follow the economic aid
cut. This would show the regime and
its businessmen supporters where their
bread is buttered. They'd shape up.
It's great idea, unless one looks
at basic fact of foreign aid.
The fact is that economic and mill
tary aid cannot be separated in their
effects on the various operations of the
country receiving it, Simply put: Reduce
economic aid by an amount sufficient
to impress the Diem regime and you
reduce the war effort.
Military aid money is channeled to
the armies all right, but its effect is to
free comparable sum of local tax
money and economic aid funds for the
other sectors Of the economy. Economic
aid, conversely, let's the government
spend more on defense. If we were to
reduce economic aid to Wet Nam by a
significant amount some of the tax
money that goes for defense would be
diverted to shore up the economy.
AS an added complication in Wet
Nam, the war there is at least as much
economic and political as it is military.
Military victories will be futile unless
the people are won over by economic
help to the villages and by political
reform. A cut in economic aid would
hurt both Of these programs.
Can nothing be done then? People
looking for some magic way to reshape
the Vietnamese government will have to
say no, nothing. Nothing magic.
What can be done is what hard
working American officials are trying
to do: Patiently teach President Diem
and his friends that their goal of free
and stable country can be reached only
through more judicious use of power
and, meanwhile, carry on the war.
