Italian Airline Will Buy
American-Built Aircraft
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The!
Italian airline, Alitalia, today
became the first foreign airline
to buy American by making a
$300,000 deposit on three, u. ,
supersonic airliners.
Britain and France thus lost
a round in their race to capture
the supersonic market from the
United States with their jointly
built Concorde. ,
Alitalia has boon promised
equal treatment with U.S. air
line companies as far as dcUY
cries are concerned. ,
Alitalia concluded the deal
with the Federal Aviation Agen
cy (FAA) Friday.
With the placement of the
Alitalia order, the United States
'threatened to overtake Britain
and France in the race for the
faster-than-sound airliner mar
ket. The British and French com
panies Sud and British Air
craft Corporation have book
ed orders for 35 Concordes.
FAA now has orders, with de
posits paid, for 33 American
supersonic aircraft.
Britain and France expect to
make first deliveries of the
Concorde a year and perhaps
more before the U.S. plane is
ready.
Nit only has the American
aircraft not even been designed
yet but the basic decision re
garding its speed has not been
made.
The Anglo - French Concorde
will fly slightly faster than
twice the speed of sound.
The United States is still de
bating whether to build a com
parable plane or to go for a
bigger one (three times the
speed of sound).
The sale or three U.S. air
craft to a foreign airline is re
garded as a significant achieve
ment here. The head of the U.S.
supersonic . program, Gordon
Bain, has estimated that for
eign carriers will make up
about 50 per cent of the poten
tial market for the U.S. machine.

The carrot suddenly lost
taste appeal.
Congress, which overwhelm
ingly endorsed President Ken
nedy's decision Va years ago
to make the landing of the first
astronauts on the moon a "na
tional goal," has stopped writ
ing blank checks for space re
search, This year's budget was
cut by $500 million.
The President, who had said,
"We possess all the resources
and talents necessary," indicat
ed some second thoughts of his
own with a dramatic proposal
in September that the United
States and the Soviet Union
journey jointly to the moon.
Khrushchev Won't Bit.
Soviet " Premier Nikita
Khrushchev jerked the rug
from under the whole $40 bil
lion works by stating rather
jovially that Russia wasn't in
terested in competing, and
wished the United States "good
luck."
If, as some have claimed,
Khrushchev's real intent was to
lull America into a sense of
lunar disinterest, he is off to a
good start. Moon racing now
seems as faddish as goldfish
swallowing and hula-hooping.
Insiders privately concede
that neither the Kennedy ad
ministration nor the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration can depend much
longer on holding up the moon
as the prize for space mastery.
The public apparently isn't buy
ingparticularly at $40 billion.
The months ahead are ex
pected to sec a slow but detec
table withdrawal by the United
Stales from plans for an all-out
manned assault on the moon
a strategic retreat, as me ma
rines would have it, or an at
tack in another direction.
The question is, which direc
tion?
Most Likely Move
The most likely appears to be
a shift toward manned space
stations in orbit around earth,
the type of program the Soviet;
Union has said over and over
again it is pursuing.
Some, of America's top scien
tists in the federal space agen
cy have admitted off the rec
