US Plans To
Launch Space
Lab In 67-68

(UPD - The
United States announced plans
Tues, to launch q manned or
biting laboratory into space in
1867 or early 1868. The program
will be under Air Force control.
Defense Secretary Robert S.

Mcnamara said. II was de-
scribed as an expanded effort
to learn the military usefulness
of men in space.
Mcnamara drew a sharp dis
tinction between the Air Force
project and the Apollo moon

space agency.
He said NASA has no similar
project now under way. Its

the Pentagon would actually
save 500 million in military
space expenditures In the next
10 months.
This appeared to be largely
because the orbiting laboratory
would fly later and the heavy
expenditures thus would not
come so soon.
The MOL will be designed,
Mcnamara said, so that astro-
nauts will be able to walk about
freely inside 1t without space
suits while orbiting $50 miles or
less above the earth for periods
of two to four weeks.

u. S. A. Unprepared

One big reason Russian rockets in
Cuba, or rel bigger rockets in Russia,
cause such CONSERVATION in the United
States is that our industry (and our c@ities)
are unprepared for a showdown.
When one looks back on the last twen-
ty years it is amazing that our cities and
industry = in short the defense and
security of the United States = is in such
a state of unpreparedness. III.
The Germans in World War II, twenty
years ago, were subjected to a heavy
aerial bombardment. At the time we
were told that this air devastation was so
great Germany's war-making capacity
was being drastically reduced. In later
years, after the war, we found we had
highly exaggerated the damage we did.
The Germans were smart enough to
dispense their factories and put many of
them underground; the result was that

Much Red Tape?

GLOW can Government officials uphold
law and order when they, themselves,
brazenly flout the laws?" asks Editor Ro-
sale Gordon in the August 3Oth issue of
Americas Future.
Some congressman, says Miss Gordon,
have been asking this question with re-
spect to our foreign aid handouts to Cas-
tro's international helpers, even though
the press has shown little interest to this
problem.
Congress last year outlawed foreign aid
to countries whose ships supplied oil to
Red Cuba without any exceptions. On
other products supplied to Cuba, the
President could make an exception where
he considered it in the public interest,
reporting his action to the appropriate
Congressional committee.
The Sidney herald., 1963-09-18

in the last complete year of the war,
1914, the Germans produced more war
goods than in any other year. Our bomb
ing had surprisingly little effect on total
war production, though transportation
and certain specific industries like the
oil refining industry were hard hit.
How is it that we did not learn the
lesson? How is it that eighteen years
after the war we still have not dispersed
u war industry? The startling inepti-
tude of our situation is so great that many
Americans seek to rationalize, by saying
that if a bomb drops, all will be over
anyhow. $50 why worry?" the rational
izers and pessimists ask.
No wonder Pentagon leaders stir ner-
vously when rockets are installed in
Cuba, or when they think of Russian
ICBM's! We are sitting ducks for a care
fully planned attack.
The Sidney herald., 1963-09-18

Rep. Melvin Laird, of Wisconsin, re-
ports that the ships of 27 nations have
been supplying Castro with various goods
while receiving half a billion dollars of
u aid money. No one, says Miss Gordon,
has found that the White House advised
any committee of the national interest
being involved. In the first six months of
1868, four nations, receiving $145 million
in US aid, shipped oil to Red Cuba in the
face of the absolute embargo.
Miss Gordon thinks it's bad enough to
see this help going to an enemy strong
hold, but infinitely worse for the Presi-
dent, himself, to ignore the law. But,
what with not having enough help, and
in his eagerness to oblige Castro's boss in
Moscow with a treaty, we suppose over
sights are bound to occur.

any drastic criterion changes in the Chew
rolet lines. They have added ten new
models, which is the greatest number the
division has ever offered in a single year..

mission.
The Ford Falcon is completely restyled
for '64. This is the first time since its
introduction four years ago. Some new
styling makes the Fairlane look bigger,
along with the other Ford models. The

No doubt you read with some interest
the hearings held in Washington relative
to the "pack" that visited Cuba recently.
People were alarmed by their acts, how
ever, we must remember that in every
society there's certain to be a group OF
oddballs.
This past weekend we were in Min
neapolis looking over some printing
equipment and came in contact with a
couple of young lads in their early TWEEN
ties who would have been at home on
that Cuban trip.
I asked the older bearded student of
the University of Minnesota just why he
was wearing the beard. l told him that
back home we generally associate boards
with ~centennials or some other sort of
celebration.
He said they were growing these
boards because they had planned a trip
to South America where they hate
Americans" and they didn't want to be
so readily recognized. This made me
nearly drop my glass of ale.
I naturally asked the beatnik If he had
ever been to South America and his
reply was what I expected -. "no." ]
then proceeded to tell him I had visited
three South American countries and the
only person I found that hated Ameri-
cans were the usual trouble making small
bands of Communists.
But it is unfortunate that we have this
type of person visiting foreign countries
and in a sense representing you and me.
And it is generally known that we are
getting some of this trash in the Peace
Corps. Let's hope they're at a minimum.

The sewage running into the
