Twining Says Russ Jet Number Far Ahead of U.S Air Forces WASHINGTON UH Gen. Nathan i F. Twining uyi Russia has "thousands more jet combat planes in operational unit" than the -V., S. Air Force and Navyj combined. The Air Force chief of staff re-i ports, however, the I'nited States, still holds an advantage in aerial i Army Quickly Convertihg Fire Power to A -Weapons Bv F.l.TON C. FAY WASHINGTON OP-The Army, fitting itself to the Atomic Age. now is spending about six limes as much money lor procuring! guided missiles than goes for pur- chase of traditional artillery. I And hy 16 the Army probably will 'bate no "tube" igun type' artillery left,-except' for mortars! to fire at, close, ranses of from! liny yams 10 iwu mum wir re-1 acarrh fifliria! ni'edit'lcd tndav. t His forecast appears to he in ' line with the trend indicated in! budget records ,o( the delcnse de partment. I They show that the estimated army expenditures for artillery in the fiscal year which started last , July 1 will be about . million dollars. Rut the expenditures for! procurement of guided missiles during the same period will be about 300 million dollars: No Missile in KM Six years, ago, army spending for procurement of artillery was 44 million dollars with nothing spent- for procurement of missiles. But as the endtif the Korean Warl neared and the modernization pro gram became well under way in 1!).v), Army expenditures for artil lery and missiles were even, with 107 million dollars put out for each. ine-expenditures are lor pro curement." That meatos that the missiles bought go primarily for the equipment of fighting forces with actual weapons. The cost of development of missiles is grouped somewhere .n the overall item for army research. The transition to robot weapons might be even faster, the olficfal said, if it were not for reasons of economics. The army has an enor mous inventory of artillery, rang ing from the old reliable 75 milli meter pieces to the 280 millimeter ainmic cannon, the investment cost of which could be measured in billions. Another factor is time needed for production of existing mtssile designs and perfection ol others which will fat1 out shoot any gun or cannon in existence or ever planned. Many Advantages The army is rolling Its caissons along and out of the picture be cause missiles can: t shoot farther; ( 2 carry more lethal warheads, including hydrogen ex plosive in some instances: )i be transported to launching points swifter and more easily than ar tillery. The latter point is emphasised by the fact that the army stopped, about a year ago. production of the 200 millimeter gun-with which it can fire atomic shells. Al though it is rnntinting to keep batteries of the atomic guns de ployed along the Western Kuro pean defense line, the army has encountered difficulties with the heavy gun and its tractors bog ging down on roads and in fields. The shift from guns to missiles is embracing the whole field of artillery, including anti-tank and anti-aircrMt weapons. Karlier this week, the army placed an "initial production con tract with a company for the "Dart" . anti-tank guided missile. This steerahle missile, launched from battlefield position against enemy armor, presumably can Carry a warhead his enough to knock out the mightiest tank of any army. Atomic Warheads Army research officials say that eventually much of the anti-air-cralt equipment will be armed with atomic warheads. Experi ments with such weapons already have been made at atomic wea pons proving grounds. Two guided missiles already are part of the standard equipment of the army, the Nike anti-aircraft weapon and the corporal bom bardment missile, the latter hav ing a range. of about M miles and being capable of mounting an atomic warhead. In addition, the army has operating units of the "Honest John" bombardment rocket mot a guided missile' with a range q about 20 miles and also capable of firing an atomic pro jectile.

Man Lives 20 Minutes Minus Heartbeat CINCINNATI UP-For the last 20 minutes of his life, i Cincin nati man's heart did not beat per ceptibly, his r physician reported1 Saturday. He walked, talked and breathed during that time, but an attend ing physician could not detect the pulse, blood pressure or heartbeat of Harry E. Rader, 62. Rader and his wife, Jesse, had gone to watch television at the home of friends, where he suf fered a heart attack Friday night. Dr. J. Stewart Mathers, called to treat Rader, said it was one of the most unusual cases he had ever seen. "I listened Intently," Dr. Math ews said, "and could not hear a sound from his chest. Mr: Rader even walked about four feet from a lounge chair to the couch. But he wanted to sit up because he couldn't breathe In a reclining position. Dr. Mathews called the life squad which arrived 15 minutes later. .. "He was still talking then." the' doctor said, "and his conversation; was rational." Despite the administration of' oxygen and two shots of adrrna-l in. the doctor was unable to save Rader's life. He pronounced Rader dead. RIVER FLOWS AGAIN FORT LAMY.

Twining said "I was iuite shocked" by the speed with which Russia has produced Mig fighter planes. . He said he has not changed his estimate that y they produce 10 times as many all weather fighters a month as this country. , Point Stressed On the subject of warplane num bers Twining stressed one point -! a belief that if war should come Russia would need mor bombers than the United States because there are more target areas In this country than in the Soviet union. His words and those of Lt. Gen. Donald L. Putt, chief of Air Force research and development, were spoken from the background of their recent trip to Russia, where they" were allowed a " restricted look at Soviet air power. Official Aslwiaded i Putt told the senators he was "astounded" by what he saw there ot the scop of the Russian- air force training program, particu larly in the fields of science and technology. Their testimony marked , the windup of the subcommittee's sometimes stormy investigation of tJ. S. air power as compared with Russia's.

An Automatic Electric Clothes Drver I : 1 t Taft-Hartley Act Change 'Anti-Union' WASHINGTON - Sen Morse (D-Oret Saturday reiterated his contention ' that Kiscnhowrr ap pointees to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) have made sweeping changes in the Taft-Hartley act to the benefit of anti-union employes. Stripped of "inaccuracies, mis statements and distortions." Morse said, the board's reply to his earlier accusation tends to con firm rather than refute his state ments. The senator renewed his charge In a 68-page letter to Sen. Smith (R-NJ) analysing the reply of the NLRB. The NLRB reply uas con tained in a report, prepared for Smith and Sen. Knowliind 'tt Calif', and in letters to Sen. Hill (D-Ala by Boyd Leedom, NLRB chairman, and general counsel Tbeophil C, Kammho'-T Morse contends that administra tion appointees to the board have brought about a "wholesal" re versal of previously well-established interpretations of the act, and that each such reversal fa vored anti-union employer inter ests and hurt workers." He labeled as a "myth" the con tention he said was made by Lee dom that the board has derided many precedent setting cases in favor of unions. "Not a single one of the 11 cases cited by Chairman Leedom . . . can conceivably be thought to sus tain such a claim," the senator declared. Girl Survives Car Wreck, Dies From Hot Wire" WESTHAMPTON.
