By ELTON C. FAY
WASHINGTON iff Atomic
rockets for blasting enemy bomb
ers out of the sky are now being
issued to interceptor planes of the
air defense command within the
Limed States.
Suddenly breaking a well-kept
srcrci, secretary ot uerense
Charles E. Wilson Wednesday re
vealed this in a statement which
I also said that the same nuclear
punch will be incorporated into
surface-to-air defense.
This will include the Army s
Nike-Hercules antiaircraft missile
and the Talos, a missile developed
i by the Navy which the Air Force
as proposed to adopt.
i The fact that nuclear missiles
I already are out of the experiment
al stage and going into the hands
of airmen represents the greatest
' advance in aerial defense since
World War II and the following
advent of the atomic and jet air-
: craft age.
' The airborne rockets are being
stored "in areas immediately ad
' jacent to the operational units,"
the Pentagon said, adding that for
reasons of military security it
I would not say precisely where.
I Obviously, however, this eventual-
ly will mean at most of the major
S. Nelson To Manage
McKee Trailers Sales
1 Stanley R. Nelson of Eugene has
been appointed manager of the
Jim McKee Trailer Sales. 1162
NE Stephens. McKee announced.
Mr. and Mrs. Nelson are living
in a trailer on the sales lot. Mel
son has been service manager of
the firm since 1954 and has serv
ed in that capacity in Eugene
since 1954.
i bases where air defense command
planes are located.
Wilson's statement did not iden
tify the rocket being used as a
carrier for the nuclear explosive.
I It is understood to be of new de
sign and to have actual guided
missile features instead of being
a mere aimed rocket.
Reports that the rocket is one
of the better known missiles, like
the Air Force's Falcon, were dis
counted. There has been specula
tion published for months that an
.entirely new piane-to-piane mis
jsile, built for an atomic warhead,
was far advanced in development.
! One published report suggested
this might be the "Dingdong," a
Douglas Aircraft Co. project.
I It seems entirely possible that
nuclear power as high as 15 or 20
kilotons could be packed in the
i warhead of a missile. A kiloton is
the equivalent of 1,000 tons of en
lersy released by a conventional
TNT explosion). Such force obvi.
ously could destroy aircraft at
what Wilson called "a considera
ble distance from the point of
burst" perhaps upward of a half
mile.
