Center Urged
NEW YOKK. Ml Astronaut John G. Glenn Jr. pro
posed Monday creation of a national information center
into which would be channeled the vast new quantities
of space age information.
- The Marine lieutenant colonel, first American to orbit
the Earth, made the proposal in a speech prepared for
delivery to editors and publishers at the annual Asso
ciated Press meeting.
Glenn said that while a national information center
"can be initially organized to cope with the inundation
of space information, it can pave the way in many fields

Nixon, Rocky
- SALEM (UP Sen. Wayne
Morse, D-Ore., Saturday night
criticized both former Vice
President Richard Nixon and
New York Gov. Nelson Rocke
feller in a speech to Democrats
here.
He called Nixon a "war
monger" and he said Nixon took
fa shocking position" Saturday
when he said the U.S. should
"openly support the forces of
freedom In lis policy toward
Cuha."
" Morse said President Kennedy
has at all limes fought Commu
nism In Cuba "within the frame
work of International law."
; He accused Rockefeller of a
.shabby performance" in egging
on French President Charles dc-1
Gaulle in hopes of embarrassing
President Kennedy.
knowledge, not just 'file
systems
By this, he explained, he
meant that highly technical in
formation would be more easily
understood and thus would be
better applied in everyday liv
ing.
"The effect on business and
industry alone would probably
far surpass the initial outlay of
such a system, since an Ameri
can businessman with a new
idea needs little prodding,"
Glenn said
Of his own field, Glenn said
the immediate purpose of the
nation a space program is "pro
viding transportation to new
areas and return."
"None of the manned space
programs of the future is mere
ly to prove that man can adapt
and is reliable or can live
aboard a space craft," he said.
"Tho long range 'pay-off comes
when we start using these capa
bilities to learn new things."
But he emphasized; "We have
developed an 'information gap'
between the discoverers or the
researchers and those who
would normally make use of
such information."
The astronaut also urged re
search into ways of increasing
our mental capacity to absorb
the additional knowledge made
available. He noted that the av
erage person, according to psy
chiatrists, uses only seven-
tenths of one per cent of his
mental capacity.
After reviewing the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration program to put a man
on the Moon, Glenn commented:
"We are certainly aware of
the 'race' aspects of the lunar
mission, but I feel the program
is completely worthwhile even
if there were no such place as
Communist Russia.
"We cannot possibly pinpoint
all the advantages and benefits
that will accrue, but research
and exploration have always
had a way of paying off in the
future, far beyond any expecta
tion, and this is the grandest
exploration of all time."

GOP Group
Severs Ties
PORTLAND flJPD The Oregon
Republican College League
changed its constitution Satur
day to cut ties with the Young
Republican Federation and at
tached itself to the Oregon Re
publican Club.
The action came at the group's
annual convention here.
The ORCL worked out a one
year probationary period with
the ORC before a permanent af
filiation will be made.
The convention turned down
by a narrow margin approval of
the liberty amendment, which
would eliminate the income tax,
and rejected a committee's rec
ommendation that it endorse
Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz.,
for the presidency in 1964.
A move to back Gov. Mark
Hatfield as a favorite son candi
date was defeated when newly
elected chairman Raymond J.
Redburn, Coos Bay, said the
league should concern itself
with forming a strong organiza
tion to support all candidates
and should not become involved
in advance endorsements.

Newspaper Officials
Meeting in N.Y.
NEW YORK (UPD The twin
problems of labor and advanc
ing technology held the spot
light for intensive study at the
annual meeting of executives of
the American daily press open
ing here Monday.
More than 1.400 executives
from the United States, Canada,
Puerto Rico, Bermuda and Ja
maica were expected to attend
the four-day 77th annual con
vention of the American News
paper Publishers Assn.
(ANPA).
Record High Membership
The organization membership
stands at a record high of 867
daily newspapers representing
more than 90 per cent of total
daily North American circula
tionin an industry which this
year has been beset with labor
trouble in a time of marked
gains in automated production.
Following two years of re
duced strike activity, newspaper
unions in 1962 called 27 strikes
against 26 daily newspapers in
17 cities. Minneapolis was hit
by a 117-day strike. Cleveland
papers were closed by a 126
day strike. New York was
blacked out by a 114-day strike
shutdown. Implications of the space age,
satellite communication, new
challenges of news coverage,
government policy toward the
free flow of news, and congres
sional antitrust subcommittee
hearings on the newspaper busi
ness all were prominent on the
discussion agenda.
Hold Closed Sessions
The convention will end
Thursday night with an address
by New York Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller at the annual din- i
ner of the ANPA Bureau of Ad
vertising. It opened Monday
with the annual all-day closed
sessions in labor relations, with
ANPA President Irwin Maicr,
publisher of the Milwaukee
Journal and Sentinel, welcom
ing the participants.
In related meetings, the two
press associations opened their
annual get-together sessions.
The Associated Press invited
publishers to its annual lunch
for an address by astronaut
John H. Glenn. United Press
International, at its annual
breakfast for members of its
regional editors and publishers
associations, presented its chief
European correspondent. Jo
seph W. Grigg, and its Saigon ;
bureau manager, Neil Sheehan,
with special reports on France
and Vict Nam.
