While estimating that thu

Raw Materials Neglected
U. S. Steel said insufficient
consideration has been given
so far to the availability of
raw materials for the plant

more to find a long-term solu-
ton.
The report said a total in
vestment of 1919 million would
be needed for the first stage
of the project, including a
$5l2.5-million long term loan.
This would be spent over 512
years, with operations begin

Self-Help Lacking
The result has been stagna-

pared with a 20 per cent in

hapS more decisive for the Al

grapple with institutions and

The result has been a sitting

A group of 100 top-rankine
American scientists urged the
Government yesterday to place
more emphasis on searching
for life beyond the earth.
They cited international
prestige as one consideration
and voiced concern that life
detection experiments might
not be ready in time for in
clusion in the first unnamed
capsule landing on Mars. This
is scheduled to take place
sometime in 1866.
The scientists expressed some
criticism of the man-in-space
program. They said not enough
emphasis is being put on de-
veloping techniques to sustain
astronauts on prolonged flights
such as those to the moon
and the planets.
Among other things, the
group called for inclusion OF
a microphone in the first un-
manned Martian capsule in
order to record the swish Of
any plants waving in the
Martian winds and the sounds
of any creatures that might be
on the prowl.

The huge document sum-
marizes discussions and recon-
mendations Of a group of Gov
ernment, university and in
dustry scientists who met at
the State University of Iowa
last summer to appraise the
Nations space research.
While enthusiastically in
dorsing NASA'S space science
program on the whole. the
group urged that the hunt for
extra terrestrial life be elevated
to "the top-priority scientific
goal of our space program"
1t said that up to now
NASA's effort in space biology
which would include the
search for life on other planets
has been sporadic. NASA, it
said, has been giving principal
support to biology projects de-
signed to get man into space,
as distinguished from expert
ments aimed at finding
whether life exists elsewhere
in space.
In other major recommended
tions, the scientists called for:

flight, at extraterrestrial sta

Specifically, the group urged
establishment of a special in

as copilots of manned orbiting

flights in 1864.

Called Foe
Of Sky Bolt
BY FRED S. HOFFMAN
Associated Press Staff Writer

Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor dis
agreed with the other top mill
tary chiefs when they voted to
support the Inflated Skybolt
bomber-launched missile, reli-
able informants said yesterday.
Gen. Taylor, chairman of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff, report
edly agreed with Defense Sec
retary McNamara's conclusion
that the Skybolt should be
dropped.
But Gen. Taylor was said to
have differed with Secretary
Mcnamara on a major reason
for taking such action.
1t was learned also that Gen.
Taylor and most other members
Of the top military group fav-
ored starting toward produc-
tion of the Nike Zeus antimis-
sile missile. A mild dissent
was entered by Gen. Curtis E,
Lemay, Air Force chief of staff,
the informants said.
On the Nike Zeus issue, Gen.
Taylor apparently differed with
President Kennedy who has
indicated he will deny the
Army any money to prepare
for production of the missile
killer. Before being elevated
to jos chairman, Gen. Taylor
was Mr.. Kennedy's personal
military adviser.
The Defense Department has
ordered cancellation of the
Skybolt, but the issue is almost
certain to echo in the new Con-
gress where the l.000-mile-
range missile has strong
friends.
