ing Congress and the secretary
of agriculture to consider such
a laboratory in connection with
the central livestock disease lab
oratory already under study by
the federal government.
Various western farm bureau

made repeated pleas for a simi
lar installation in the past.

tigers but the second was still
free an hour after the escape.
The Tigers broke free from
the Togni State circus now ex

Effectiveness of
DEW Line Against
Missiles Question
San Francisco U.R Brig.
Gen. Stanley T. Wray, chief of
the Air Force's electronic de
fense system, says America's
Arctic radar net will be more
than 90 per cent effective against
any airplane now on the draw
ing boards.
But its effectiveness against
intercontinental missiles is still
a question, he added. '
Speaking at a news conference
prior to a speech before the So
ciety of Military Engineers yes
terday. Gen. Wray said the
string of Distant Early Warning
(DEW Line) radar stations
stretched across the far north
would be completed in less than
two years.
Greater Rang
Radar being installed in this
chain will have a range greater
than has ever been disclosed and
"will be effective against any
air-breathing vehicle on the
drawing boards at this time," he
said.
Wray said security forbade
him to estimate the radar's effectiveness-
against the inter
continental ballistic missile, but
he admitted they do not come
into the "air-breathing" cate
gory. He said the DEW Line will
be able to give interceptor bases
a four to six hour advance warn
ing of approaching enemy air
craft. The system will never be 100
per cent effective because of the
continual competition between
developments of offensive and
defensive equipment and tech
niques, he said.
