Navy Reports Progress on
Superweapons of Tomorrow
(Editor's Note: If there has to be another world war, don't
count the navy out of it.
While popular attention has centered on the prospective
role of the air force, the navy has pressed ahead with weap
ons that promise to revolutionize warfare on, under and
above the seas. The United Press' chief Pentagon reporter
tells about these developments in the following dispatch.)
By DAYTON MOORE
Washington, June 21 (U.R) Top naval officers today reported
"great progress" on lethal super-weapons that promise again
to revolutionize sea warfare. But even with great progress, most
of these weapons are some years away.
These fantastic war "gadgets" of the future may Include:

off and land upright on their
tails.
Atomic-powered submarines
that can stay submerged indefi
nitely. Fast underwater topedoes with
electronic "ears" to guide them
to their targets.
Guided surface-to-air missiles
to bring down fast planes flying
up to 10 miles high.
These and other new naval
weapons are in various stages of
research and development. A few
are being produced in limited
numbers. Some are only in the
first stages of research.
If World War III should come
tomorrow, the navy would have
to start fighting It largely with
World War II weapons.
But the strategy and tactics of
the U.S. naw mav be revolu
tionized within a few years by
development of atomic-powered
submarines and long-range guid
ed missiles with atomic war
heads. Previous revolutionary chan
ges in naval tactics were marked
by replacement of oar-driven
galleys by sailing vessels in the
16th century; the advent of the
armored, steam-driven warship
in the Civil war; and the aircraft
carrier's replacement of the bat
tleships as the fleet's main war
ship in World War II.
But top naval officers do not
expect an easy, push-button vic
tory even after atomic and other
superweapons are developed.
They are figuring on a "long
haul" plan for carrying out the
navy's primary mission of keep
ing the sealanes open.
With American forces being
committed throughout the world
and oil increasingly important
to the armed forces, the navy's
major role in warfare becomes
more and more vital to the na
tion's security.
American access to foreign oil
must be maintained lest the U.S.
reserves be lowered dangerously
close to depletion in event of an
other global war.
Because Russia has a relative
ly few surface ships, the navy is
concentrating on air and anti
submarine warefare in its wea
pons development program.
vnM : , . . u
X u scuuuio' icnauiiD, uic navy
has cloaked much of the pro
gram in tight secrecy. But Adm.
Forrest P. Sherman, chief of na
val operations, said:
"The navy is pressing its re
search and development pro
gram. Great progress has been
achieved in such new areas as
guided missiles, automatic equip
ment to enable the pilots of the
newer faster jet aircraft to find,
recognize, track and destroy a
target, and in atomic propulsion
for ships."
The keel of a new 57,000-ton
flush deck-type carrier will be
laid within a few months. It
would be finished in about three
years.
Completion of an atomic-powered
submarine is expected with
in three years.
The first of three new K-l
killer anti-sub subs was launch
ed recently. It weighs only 750
tons and is not much more than
half as big as a fleet-type attack
sub. But it offers great promise
as a killer of other subs. It has
electronic ears to d e t e c t other
subs and is armed with homing
torpedoes likewise equipped with
electronic ears.
faster attack subs, also was
launched recently. It Is equipped
with snorkel tube and a newly
developed vastly improved die
sel engine.
Work is being done on equip
ment that will supply oxygen to
permit these diesel-powered subs
to stay submerged for days with
out even a snorkel tube.
The navy has ordered limited
numbers of two surface-to-air
anti-aircraft guided missiles
the 3,000-pound Convair Terrier
with a range of 10 miles and the
much-smaller 280-pound Douglas
Sparrow with a range of five
miles.
Vice Adm. John H. Cassady,
deputy chief of naval operations
for air, said that two companies
reportedly Consolidated Vul-
tee and Lockheed have submit
ted "very promising ideas" for
a radical new jet fighter.
This strange plane, using its
tail for a landing gear, would
take off and land at a 90-deeree
angle from a carrier deck. In
this respect, it would be some
thing like a helicopter but it
would be able to fly at top speed
in the normal attitudes of more
conventional planes after it was
airborne.
The navy already has two
types of planes capable of car
rying the large A-bomb. It is de
veloping two others with great
ly improved performance.
The two present ones are the
land-based P2V NeDtune and the
(farrier-based AJ-1. The ones
coming up are the A2J and the
all-jet A3D.

Brain Surgery Saves Boy's Life
Pasadena, June 21 W A miracle of brain surgery today
brought the official word that pale, puny Donny Marton, 4-year-old
Canadian boy, will get well.
The tiny wisp of a boy, whose weight had wasted to 20
pounds, was operated on last Thursday by Dr. William T. Grant,
brain specialist, and his assist--
ant, Dr. Edward Oberc.
They worked without cost
after the boy's plight and the
devotion of his father attracted
wide publicity.
Arthur Marton, 34-year-old
farmer of Archerwill, Saskat
chewan, had carried the boy in
his arms during a 3,000-mile bus
trip. Doctors had told him the
boy was doomed to die with a
rare deterioration of brain tis
sue. Marton had sought the aid
of divine healing through an

biscuit, fruit jelly, vanilla bis
cuit. And, to top the whole
thing off, coffee.
That assortment reminded me
of two of the biggest meals I
ever had.
The first was in Chicago's
Chinatown when the boss sent
me out to cover a dinner given
in honor of a visiting Chinese
general and his lovely lady.
The business started with
bird's nest soup, and then came
one course after another. Fish
turkey, steak, etc. And between
courses more rice than a man
could hold, plus more tea than
any man had a right to expect to
hold. The dinner took up most
of the evening.
The other big feed was a meal
in memory of the famous old
French chef Escof fier. It is given
each year in various towns by
a national organization known as
Ls Amis d Escoffier." In Min
neapolis we started by bibbing
up in a yard-square napkin and
spent the next four hours get
ting miserable on one fine dish
after another.
