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

and Washington 33,473 and 34,397.

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.

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.

Sidewinder Destroys
Target Quickly During
Air Force Trial Tests
ELGIN AIR FORCE BASE. Fla.
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.
