H-Warheads
Made to Fit
R Missiles
WASHINGTON , -The for
Force says a major scientific
broakthitugh has assured hydro
sen warheads "light and handy
enough to be carried by long-range
missiles of reasonable size."
Two Air1 Force generals testi
fied that although much engineer
ing work remains, "no inventions
are required" to perfect intercon
tinental missiles. They disclosed
also that a definite schedule of de
velopment has been prepared, and
expressed confidence it will be
met.
The testimony was given by
Maj. Gen. S. R.Brentnall.assiSt
ant chief of staff for guided mis
siles, and Maj. Gen. Bernard A.
Schreiver, who is in direct charge
of the long-range missile program.
A House Appropriations subcom
mittee made public a censored
version of their testimony last
night.
Brentnall said missile develop
ment was long stymied because of
the size of the warhead. But he
sah." the "advent of lightweight
high-yield warheads" has simpli
fied many technical problems and
assured eventual success.
Schreiver said the big job now
is to plan and put together the
complex system required to oper
ate accurate missiles. He did not
say. in the released testimony,
how long that mighl take.

Attendance at
Home, Garden
Show Declines
Sunday attendance at the Sa-
Ilem Lions club Home and Gar
den Show at the state fair-
I grounds, estimated in excess of
j 4,000 persons, swelled the three-
day total attendance to 8,861.
While the Sunday crowds were
said to be the largest in the
three-year history of the show,
the overall attendance was down
slightly, officials said. The drop
was blamed on a large number
of competing activities over the
weekend, particularly opening of
Ithe trout fishing season.

Weighmasters Bring Reduction
In Overloaded Trucks on Road
Log Violations
Show Sharp
Decline
By JAMES D. OLSON
Capital Journal Writer
A substantial reduction in
overload trucks during the past
six years can, to a great extent,
be attributed to the work of 65
men who handle the weighing
of trucks in various parts of Ore
gon for the state highway com
mission. Heavy fines for violators and
assistance in emergencies by
members of the Oregon state
police have also made
the "weighmasters bible" which
contains all pertinent informa
tion of the duties of the person
nel of the station, list of high
ways on which certain loads are
permitted, public utility commis
sion regulations and other infor
mation for the guidance of the
station men.
There are no 8 to IS o'clock
work schedules at the stations
for the simple reason that there
are not sufficient men to work
out any such schedule with a
40-hour week in vogue. To keep
the stations open during the
greatest number of hours that
trucks operate and on Saturday
and Sunday as well, staggered
shifts have been arranged.
Linn 22,044 and Douglas 16,523.
Little Complaint
Chief Welghmaster Spauldlng
says that surprisingly little com
plaint is made Jjy delays due to
weighing and said that this is
probably because efforts are
made to speed up the operations
as much as possible. All men in
the division have instructions to
cut down delays wherever pos
sible. Importance of the work of the
weighmasters to the citizens
using the highways, as R. H.
Baldock, chief engineer of the
highway department, has point
ed out many times, is that over
loaded trucks destroy the highways.
The legislature has been lib-
Building Code
Exceptions Set
For Heading
The Salem planning commission
will hold hearings May IS on four
proposed variations to the city
building code.
Central Assembly of God church
is seeking permission to enlarge its
building at Cottage and Hood
streets and wants to eliminate the
Cottage street setback require
ment. Setback changes are sought by
Ludwig Schoultz, who plans to
build a house on Lefelle street be
tween High and Church streets,
and Gabriel Marsh who wants to
construct a home on the east
side of Maple avenue between
Pine and Hickory.
Permission to change the set
back and provide 16 instead of 27
off-street parking spaces is asked
by Betty Byrd in connection with
a proposed 27 unit apartment court
on the northwest corner of Chem
eketa and 13th streets.
This meets the nrnhlpm nuite
