(International) Ballistic Missile Effort Pressed Washington :U.R) Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor said today the Army is putting "everything we've got" into development of a ballistic missile that will rock et 1500 miles. Taylor, Army chief of staff, said there is "no limit" to the type of targets the missile could be aimed against. He made the statement in summarizing 1956 Army goals at the first Pentagon news confer encecjie has held since becoming Army chief last summer. Taylor said the Army "in part nership with the Navy" is using its giant 60-foot Redstone rocket as a pattern for developing a "medium range," 1500-mile mis sile.

These will enable American forces to attack "mgn into : the enemy air space and deep into the vital sources of strength of our enemy ground f0,".os: " he said.

Mrs. Green had described "bit terness" and "tension" she said she found in Jackson, Miss., in a newsletter to her constituents in Portland. Her office said she had been swamped with mail from southerners who got wind of the critical newsletter. Much of the mail was abusive. Some was laudatory. Asked if she would answer any of her southern critics, Mrs. Green said Yes, some of the more tnougntiul ones. cne added that the violence of some of the letters addressed to her indicated just how much tension actually existed in southern race relations. "Otherwise, they would just laugh it off," she said.

ROAD OF THE DAILY DOMEUNERS AND STREAMLINERS WAL Clerks Strike; Pilois Threaten . To Walk Off Jobs Los Angeles U.R) Western Air Lines today faced the threat of a strike by its pilots follow ing a crippling walkout by its 850 clerks, baggage handlers and airport service crews. A pilot's strike would com pletely close down the air line, which serves 12 western states and Canada. The clerks struck at 6 p.m. (PST) last night and set up pick et lines at Western's office at Los Angeles International air port after the National Media tion board announced it was re leasing jurisdiction in the labor dispute. The NMB withdrew after the company refused a proposal made in joint negotiations. Services Suspended When the clerks walked off the job, the air line suspended all passenger, mail and cargo services in 45 cities in 12 west ern states and Canada. Super visory personnel took over va cated stations, but the company said they were unable to main tain all the air line's regular schedules. Western normally operates 71 flights daily. Company officials ordered all service suspended several hours after- the clerks struck. Western cancelled all flights originating .here and in Salt Lake City and Denver. Super visory personnel were trying to obtain space for customers on other lines. ' Meanwhile, Western faced a possible strike by its pilots. The line's 257 pilots, members of the Air Line Pilots association, agreed earlier they would set no new strike date for at least 72 hours following release of juris diction by the NMB.

Henry Ford Warns; No Quick Profits Provided in Stock New York (U.R) Henry Ford warned the public yesterday that Ford stock would provide no quick sure way to handsome profits. "We at Ford are not miracle men but business. men," he said in the warning addressed to 1000 securities dealers who will offer the stock to the general public next week. Wishful Thinking . He cautioned that some 'peo ple are indulging in wishful thinking about their chances for "fast and fabulous financial gain." Ford's statement was consid ered by Wall Street experts to be partially responsible for the barrage of selling 'on the stock market late yesterday which drove prices to their lowest lev els in nearly two months. Ford told the security dealers he felt it was his duty to issue the caution about the 10,200,- 000 shares of Ford stock which will go on sale at an estimated price of from ?60 to $75 per share. ' Naive Belief " - , "After considering the mail I have received, reading press ac counts and listening to the opin ions of informed persons, I am concerned about the evidence in some areas of a naive belief in industrial miracles," Ford said. He said he did not expect the automobile -business to be as good in 1956 as it was in 1955. "It is my personal belief that we will have a good year in 1956 but I don't know for sure and 1 don't think any of my col leagues do either," he said. DRUGSTORE SERVICE Stamford, Conn.
