Demonstrations With Ions Bombarding Pinwheel Shows Space Travel Possibilities CLEVELAND I The National, Advisory Committee for Aeronau tics bombarded a small pinwheel ! inside a glass vacuum jar with an! invisible stream of ions here and made it whirl briskly. The same ion-stream principle, NACA said, someday may be har nessed to push 10-ton space ships moon ward at many thousands of miles an hour once they have reached outer space. Coupled with atomic energy, such a vehicle might have virtu ally unlimited range. the demonstration was part of a four-day public inspection of the NACA's Lewis flight propulsion laboratory, which is attracting top scientists to Cleveland this week. In order to simulate the searing temperatures which will be expe rienced by aircraft and power plants at extreme speeds, NACA has developed a research tool, the electric arc tunnel. It uses a ca thode ray and anode nozzle to transmit a spark, much as in the powerful searchlight of an antiair craft unit. , A fluid injected into tha arc chamber, heated by the arc and expanded through the nozzle pro duces a high-speed stream, or "plasma jet," with temperatures of 10.000 to 20,000 degrees. "The arc tunnel suggests an at tractive propulsion device for ou,t erspace flight," NACA said in a report made public at the demon stration. "If a stream of ions, as in an arc jet, can be accelerated to high velocities by use of electric Agriculture Dept. Sets Up Sugar Acreage Quota WASHINGTON ijl The Agri culture Department allotted 915, 0O0 acres Tuesday for the produc tion of next year's domestic sugar beet crop. This compares with 5U.ouo allotted this year. The allotment is designed to hold production of beet sugar within quotas set under a sugar control program designed to sta bilize prices and supplies. The state allocations for next year's crop compared with this year, respectively, included: Cal ifornia 200,503 acres for 1958 and 206,041 for 1957; Idaho 86,965 and ' 89,367; Oregon 19,343 and 19.877; and Washington 33,473 and 34,397.

Stephens & Douglos Sti., ORchord 3-6626 or magnetic fields i small amount of thrust will be produced. Ions are tiny bits of matter atoms which have been stripped of some of their electrons and have become electrically charged. Physicist M. J. Krsnican ex plained that beyond the earth's atmosphere a vehicle would re quire only slight power in small increments to accelerate a great aeai. For example." he said, "a 10- ton vehicle in outer space, pow ered by 10 pounds of thrust for only one month, would increase its original velocity by 25,000 miles an hour." Such a vehicle before its Ion acceleration presumably would be traveling at least 18,000 miles an hour, which is the minimum speed for an earth satellite to maintain its orbit. Still greater speed would be required to break away from the earth's pull and escape into space. Wilson Compliments Russia But Thinks U. S.ls Still Ahead WASHINGTON UH Secretary of Defense Wilson credited Russia luesday with turning "a nice scientific trick" in 'aunching the first earth satellite. But he said he believes the United States still is ahead of the Soviet Union from an over-all defense standpoint. Wilson, who is retiring from the cabinet Wednesday, held a side walk news donference at the White House after a farewell call on President Eisenhower. The defense secretary w a asked specifically whether Rus sia's launching of a satellite last week will bring an order for a speed-up in this country's plans for putting a "baby moon" into outer space. "I have no such order," Wilson replied. Wilson also was asked wnetner Russia's progress in the satellite and ballistic missile fields means that the U. S. counterpart pro grams will, as a reporter put it, "get a bigger push." The secretary replied that those programs are "getting quite a push now." Wilson then was asked whether he believes that Russia now has an operational inter continental missile as distinguished from successful test model. "I would say that is some little time off yet." Wilson replied. The next question was when will the United States have, an inter continental missile? "I ought not attempt to answer that kind of question," he said with a smile.

Mrs. Frank Wade was released from the Cottage Grove Hospital Dog Vaccinations Made Necessary For U. S. Entry SEATTLE tfl Many a hunter or just plain ordinary dog lover is due for a sad and possibly costly shock if they haven't read the fine print in U.S. rabies con trol laws Before taking their animal to Canada. Tie Washington State Veterin ary Medical Assn. warned Wed nesday they may not have any trouble getting their pet into Can ada. The catch is in trying to come back. New regulations of the U. S. Public Health Service issued Sept. 5 now require that dogs be vac cinated "more than one month xxx before arrival" at the bor der. Many dog owners have taken their animals into Canada only a few days after the rabies vaccine has been given. Returning, they are laced with this regulation: "If a dog arrives with a certi ficate which is valid except that vaccination was received less than one month before arrival, the dog may be admitted but shall be placed in confinement until at least 30 days have elapsed since vaccination. Dynamite Cap Exploded Damaging Hand Of Boy BREMERTON i.fl - A dynamile cap exploded in a schoolboy's hand Tuesday, blowing off parts of several fingers before the star tled eyes of his classmates. The Kitsap County sheriff's of fice said Larry Crampton. 16. ninth-grader at Marcus Whitman Junior High School near Port Or chard, was injured a few minutes after classes began. Officr-rs said the boy was hold ing the rap in his left hand and digging into it with a pen when it went off. Larry was knocked out of his seat and a book on his desk was blasted to shreds. None of the other 30 students was injured. The cap was one of four brought to school by two other boys who found a nox of the explosives in an abandoned house last week.

An FIDO supersonic fighter fired a target rocket representing an enemy plane here yesterday and then swiftly shot it down with a heat-seeking Sidewinder missile. Nearly 6.000 persons attending an Air force lirepower demon stration watched the sudden, un canny destruction of the tiny tar get, only five inches in diameter, moments after it was launched. One Defense Department scien tist who helped develop the GARS Sidewinder said in awe, "That's what we intended it to do but I still can't believe it." Maj. John M. Simmons, Gads den, Ala., piloting the North Amer ican Super Sabre, fired the target rocket straight forward as he ap proached the demonstration area. The rocket, easily tracked by its smoky trail, hurtled far in advance of the speeding jet. Then Sim mons released the Sidewinder a simple and relatively inexpensive Navy-developed weapon which has no more electronic parts than an ordinary radio. The Sidewinder instantly sensed the heat of the target and streaked after it. A fiery explosion de stroyed both.
