Adenauer Due In US Sunday
For Talks On Berlin Crisis
WASHINGTON (AP) - With
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer due
here Sunday, the Kennedy admin
istration hopes to work out in the
next lew dayi an U.S. -West Ger
man agreement that would lead to
Wcatern negotiation with Rusaia
on a Berlin settlement.
Secretary of State Dean Rusk
diiplayed administration readi
ness at a news conference Friday
to try to come to terms with Ger
man views on Berlin issues dur
ing Adenauer's visit here. The
West German chancellor and
President Kennedy will open talks
Monday.

BIOS Missile
Shoots Skyward
POINT ARGUELLO, Calif. (AP)
A 62-foot BIOS rocket shot sky
ward today in the U.S. Space
Agency's second attempt to ex
pose three pounds of living matter
to the dangerous radiation belt
surrounding the earth.
In a capsule atop the four-stage
solid rocket were 3S parcels con
taining freshly drawn human
blood, grasshopper nerve finer,
mold, bacteria, barley leed, sea
urchin eggs and giant single-cell
amoebae.
Also aboard was a device for
collecting space dust and return
ing it to earth for the first time
to determine what it's made of
and how badly it could damage
satellites.
The first BIOS (for Biological
Investigations Of Space) fell apart
in the air a minute after launch
Nov. 15.
Plans called for the capsule to
rocket 1,166 miles into space and
parachute down into the ocean
1,300 miles west of here. Ships
and planes waiting in the area
were to recover It.
The lT-by-19-inch capsule in the
nose of the finned, white rocket
was one of the most elaborate
ever designed to investigate the
hazards faced by apse travelers.
Some of its living cargo the
blood, nerve fiber, .mold, bacteria
and barley seed was to be ex
. posed to radiation trapped in the
earth's magnetic field.
The sea urchin eggs and amoe

were part of a test of the effect
of weightlessness in space. The
eggs were to be fertilized auto
matically to see if the absence of
gravity reduced their ability to
reproduce. The amoebae were to
be fed automatically ts see if
weightlessness hurt their appetite.
Also in the capsule was a cylin
der of polished plastic which
would show scratches if hit by
space dust. Scientists hoped some
of the dust (micrometeoroids)
would become embedded and re
turned to earth.

Husk stopped short of saying
as Adenauer said earlier this
week the removal of the wall
must be a condition of any Berlin
agreement with Russia. Authori
ties here see little prospect the
Soviets will even consider tearing

response to reporters' questions:
1. The "determined and ruthless
campaign" of Communist North
Viet Nam to destroy pro-Western
Soviet Viet Nam and subjugate it
to Red rule is "a threat to the

might go to the United Nations

Congo Probe
LEOPOLDVILLE, the Congo
(AP) The United Nations pushed
forward today in a joint investi
gation with the Congo government
to root out and punish the mu
tinous Congo soldiers who slaugh-
tered 13 Italian airmen.
Congo Premier Cyrille Adoula
agreed Friday to an encirclement
and disarmament plan aimed at
what the U.N. command called a
fair investigation and stern pun
ishment" involving the 80 Congo
lese troops at Kindu, in Kivu
Province.
Adoula also agreed to cooperate
in an investigation to determine
whether leftist Vice Premier An-
toine Gizenga, political heir to the
late Patrice Lumumba, had any
thing to do with the alayings.
The Leopoldville government
appeared to have accepted the
stern measures, whick the United
Nstions proposed as inevitable.
Adoula promptly agreed to name
four members to the Joint com
mission that will seek to appre
hend the guilty, A similar number
of men represent the United Na
tions.
Gizenga's whereabouts were not
known but government sources
said he was in Kindu prior to the
outbreak of the mutiny.
U N. commanders plan to seal
off the airport area and disarm
an estimated 1,000 Congolese
troops there. The troops at one

3. The "brutal murder" of

Rusk laid, for U.N. members to

pendence and neutrality in the

In discussing the forthcoming
meeting with Adenauer, Rusk said
the two countries were "unified
on our basic purposes" in respect
to Berlin, lie made it clear he
considered the talks with Aden
auer the beginning of a new perl
od of intensive consultation on
Allied Berlin policy.
On the general question of dan
gers in the Berlin situation. Rusk
said he did not believe there was
a serious danger of conflict by
accident. The governments in
volved, Soviet and Western alike,
"do understand the potential seri
ousness of this matter." he said.
But he argued it is important
to be in communication with the
Soviets on Berlin problems and
the situation cannot be left "to
work out along the lines of chance
happening."
This was an argument for both
informal diplomatic talks and
eventual negotiations.

In Iverson Case
The district attorney has filed
an appeal to the Supreme Courl

Judge Don H. Sanders granted to
Roger Iverson on demurrer to an
indictment charging contributing lo
the delinquency of a minor.
The Grand Jury brought the in
dictment against Iverson. but,
through his attorney Harrison Win

ment on grounds that it did not
stste facts constituting a crime.
Judge Sanders ruled the indict
ment was lacking in some respects
and upheld the demurrer but grant

Judge Sanders Friday issued his
order granting judgment in favor
of Iverson, slating that it appears
the state does not wish to resub

to present to this court an indict

takes the position that the facts of
this case would not support an in

alleged in the original indictment.

Soviets Claim
Large Warhead
MOSCOW (AP) Red Star
claimed today the Soviet Union
has rocket warheads equivalent to
100-million tons of TNT, plus
rockets that can "lift and deliver
any warhead to any points on the
globe."
The claims were made by the
official military newspaper in an
article that denounced Western,
ers who belittle Soviet rocket cap
abilities. '
The article was written bv Col.
Gen. V. F. Tolubko and was pub
lished in connection with Soviet
Artillery Day Sunday.
Toluhko's words on the giant
warheads (up to 100-million tons)
and their number is considerably
greater than assumed by Ameri
can specialists.
"And we can assure those
across the ocean who like to go
in for military adventures that
our ballistic rockets have proved
themselves so wonderfully that
nobody has any doubts in their
ability to lift and deliver any war
head to any point on the globe."
Premier Khrushchev announced
Oct. 17 in opening the 22nd Soviet
Communist party congress that
the Soviet Union has a 100-mega-ton
nuclear bomb equivalent lo
100-million tons of TNT.
Khrushchev said it would not
be exploded in the Soviet's latest
test series because, "if we happen
to explode it in the wrong place,
we might break our own win
dows." The tests have included
one device of a bit more than
50 megatons.
The Red Star article was ap
parently intended to answer
American statements that the so
called missile gap between the
United States and the Soviet Un
ion no longer exists.
American authorities estimate
that the Soviet Union has around
30 tn 50 intercontinental ballistic
missiles.
The Red Star article quoted the
New York Herald Tribune as
stating that "Russian scientists
are allegedly far from having cre
ated rockets capable of delier
ing 50-megaton nuclear warheads
across the ocean."
"This self-deception is to no
avail," Red Star said. "No ocean
can now save the aggressor from
retribution."

Orbiting Space Platform Fails
To Eject Payload For Space Trip
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)
A satellite space platform was
fired into orbit today but failed
to eject a piggyback Ranger 2
payload for an intended million
mile round trip into space.
Test officials said this second
straight disappointment in the
Ranger program probably would
delay plans to fire a third Ranger
toward a landing on the moon
early next year.
A powerful Atlas Agena rocket
blasted off from Cape Canaveral
at 3:12 a.m without trouble.
Within 10 minute- the Agena sec
ond stage settled into a parking
orbit around the earth at a speed
of 18.000 miles at hour.
After coasting for 14 minutes
on this course, the Agena was to
have reigited to increase the
speed to 23,800 miles an hour and
kick the 675-pound Ranger 2 free
on a deep-space trajectory.
But the second ignition appar
ently did not occur and the Agena
and Ranger 2 continued in an
orbit ranging from 145 to 94 miles
from the earth.
Officials were studying data in
an attempt to determine if the
two vehicles separated.
The Ranger 1 launching "met a
similar fate last Aug. 23. Agena
reignition failed on that shot, too,
because of a faulty pressure
switch in the engine. But the two
vehicles did separate and spun in
low orbit for several days before
being drsgged to fiery destruction
in the atmosphere.
Rangers 1 and 2 were to swing
in highly elliptical orbits reach
Beer, Cigarettes

James D. Burke, of the Nation-

told newsmen Ihe failure was
very disheartening.
"We don't know what happened
and probably won't for several

another Agena vehicle test of
some sort before we proceed with
the lunar landing mission."
Burke said clear signals were
being received from the Ranger
payload "but they are doing us
little good becaus- Ranger 2 was
intended to gather information
from far out in space."
