RIFT Project
By the Associated Press

The Federal Government
Cancelled the RIFT nuclear
rocket flight test program to-
day in one of a series Of econ
omy moves in the space-atomic
field.
The National Aeronautics
and Space Administration and
the Atomic Energy Commission
also announced that the de-
velopment of nuclear-powered
flight systems for space prof.
ects will be deferred and the
Rover nuclear rocket propulsion
program will be restricted to
ground-baSed research and
engineering work.
Others Affected
This means that Rover's
Kiwi ground reactor) project
is unchanged, that NERVA
(Nuclear Engine for Rocket
Vehicle Application will be
continued but with its flight
detectives deferred and RIFT
(Reactor in Flight Test is can
celed," the agencies said in a
Joint announcement.
The revision provides ade-
quate finding for continued
development Of nuclear propul-
sion and at the same time, by
deferring flight systems and
tests related to NERVA and
RIFT. will save as much as
$3.50 million of planned and
programmed funds in fiscal
years 1864 and 1866"
Study Technical Points
The agency said development
Of the nuclear flight systems
will be deferred until the tech
nical problems studied in the
Kiwi and NERVA projects has
been satisfactorily resolved.
They said that reorienting
the nuclear program in this
way can make for effective use
of the $3.50 million investment
to date.
They said 1t also means that,
in the fiscal year ending June
80, 1865, spending will be sub
stantially below that of the
current fiscal year.
President Johnson's first
budget. which will go to Con-
greSs in January, will be for
the 1865 fiscal year.

WASHINGg ON - III son
ate last week passed tn neut-
al health bill almost unani-
mously, 72-1. A House COM
mittee has completed hearings,
but has not acted on the bill
There is much To recommend
bold action by the Congress in
this neglected area. The Ma
tonal Institute of Mental
Health annually reports in
creases in mental hospital adj
missions; and, according to
medical prognoSticators, the
meeting stresses of our modern
society portend even greater
increases in the future.
One of the barriers expert
enced in combating mental
illness and retardation has
been that the nations number
one health problem does not
command the type of great
public appeal that polio, canc-
Ger, and heart disease have
marshalled. One vital reason is
that old attitudes toward mem
tai illness have changed at a
snaifS pace over the years. A
prime purpoSI of the mental
health bill is to promote with
Federal assistance the con-
structlon of community cent
erS to treat mental disorders
IN or near the persons own
home area. This is regarded as
worthwhile approach in
bringing better understanding
and better treatment in early
stages of mental illness. More
over, the measure would grant
Federal assistance for the
construction of research cent
ers and facilities for the ment-
ally retarded.
Congress began its study of
mental illness needs in 1865
when 1t enacted the Mental
Health Act. AT that time it di-
rected the Joint Commission
on Mental Illness and Health
to come up with a report on
the mounting problem in this
field and report to the Con-
greSs on the needs for a ma
tional mental health program.
The Commissions study form
ed the basis of Senate action
last week.
Part. of the story told by the
commission was outlined in
national statistics which stated
that there are now 100000
patients filling our mental in
stitutions. 100000 of these suf-
fer from mental disorders and
over 100000 are being treated
for mental retardation. Every
year nearly 1l2 million people
are being treated for mental
problems of some nature. It is
estimated that one-half of the
hospital beds in the United
States are occupied by patients
afflicted with mental disord-
erS.
