Also invited to attend were

can be taken up for exploration."

Tax Exemptions
For War Disabled
Tops$l Million
County Assessor Lcland Svarver
ud reports that this year's total
ul tax exemptions for disabled war
veterans and veterans' widows has
climbed over the million-dollar
mark.
The total this year of $1,051,150
is nearly 10 times the amount
exempted in 1945, Svarverud says.
It is an increase of 591,300 in as
sessed value over the previous
year.
War veterans with a 40 per cent
or more disability or widows of

true cash value. Claims for ex
emptions must be filed by April
1 of each year, except when a
veteran acquires property after
April 1 and up to July 1. Be
tween these two dates, the veter
an has 10 days after acquisition
of the property to file claims.
The 1963 legislature broadened
the period of service for World
War I veterans. Those who served
at least one day between April
6, 1917, and Nov. 11, 1918, and
had a total of at least 90 days
service are now eligible, provided
they have a 40 per cent or more
disability. Widows of such veter
ans are also eligible.
Veterans qualifying under this
category have until Sept. 12 of
this year in which to file claims
with the assessor. Forms and ad
ditional information may be se
cured from the assessor of the
veterans service officer.

sign the agreement with Russia
and Britain.
Plans for a congressional dele
company him were expected to
be announced this week.
A two-thirds Senate vote is re
quired for ratification of the
treaty.
Goes All Out
President Kennedy's nationwide
television speech Friday night
was interpreted as showing the
administration's firm determina
tion to win public backing for the
agreement as well as the needed
Senate approval.
Weekend comments of law
makers in both parties indicated
growing support for the treaty,
many still were cautiously avoid
ing all-out endorsement pending
public hearings to be held by the
Foreign Relations group.
Dirksen expressed doubts Sun
day about certain provisions of
the treaty. He said senators must
give the pact "the closest exam
ination relative to its impact on
our defense posture and the fu
ture of our nuclear weaponry."
He indicated he was most con
cerned about a provision he said
would permit the Soviet Union to
veto any proposed amendments
to the treaty. He said he had
"doubts about other provisions"
but did not express them.

perhaps the most ambitious re-1
search and engineering enterprise
ever undertaken by man. j
"Naturally I think the United
States should be pre-eminent in '
space, and 1 think we can. But I
don't regard getting to the moon
as a race.
Sound Program A Must
"I think we must have an or- i
dered, sound and well conceived
program," said the bespectacled
45-year-old space executive who
has had 23 years experience in
missile guidance, deep space
communications, microwave re
search and space payload de
sign. "We must think primarily
of doing the best job we can.
Mueller, vice president for re
search and development at Space
Technology Laboratories, Los An
geles, acknowledged that "of
course we must always keep an
eye on what the Russians are do
ing."
But he added:
"I believe we should concern
ourselves chiefly with the job we
are doing. The real purpose is
the accomplishment itself."
Mueller, a quiet and exacting
man, was named a week ago to
succeed D. Brainerd Holmes as
chief of the U.S. Apollo program.
He will take over the $21,000-a-year
post Sept. 1.
His duties include spending $10
million a day economically for
the next eight years and oversee
ing 30,000 persons in 280 plants
across the nation.

Laboratories he is known as

sociates who say he "uses up a
