HUF out My :4 'A I Wilson Signs Papers Clarifying Roles, Missions of Armed Units Washington (U.PJ De fense Sscreta'ry .Chafles A. Wil on Monday signed a paper "clarifying" the roles and mis sions of the armed services. But even bwfore the ink was dry, Wilson had made two exceptions in favor of' the Army. Wilson's action pointed up one fact: The battle between the services over roles and missions is not over. Bather it has turned inf a question of interpretation ayid a reading of the small print. ! Tne eight Pge memorandum by Witeon was designed- to end prolonged inter-service contro versies which the Joint Chiefs of Staff could- not resolve on their own. . Air Fore Appears Winner On most points the Air Force appeared to be victorious and the Army 'the loser. In the mis sile field, the Air Force won complete operational control over the intermediate range (1.-500-mile) ballistic missile. The Army was limited to control of surface-missiles with a 200-mile 1 range and these are to be fired only 100 miles beyond' the front lines. In the controversy over air transportation, the Air Force's airlift capability, which the ' Army has criticized as too lim ited, was declared adequate. The Army was limited in use of planes of its own to largely small scale battlefield missions. Only In the field of anti-aircraft missiles did the Army ap pear to .emerge victorious. It was allowed to keep its present Nike missile system and take over the Air Force's Talos mis u. The permissible range of Army Tinti-aircraft missiles was extended to 100 miles- double zthft present limitation. . Many Escape Clauses ' Although the Army appeared to Rave lost on most counts, top cArmy officials said 'today they "believe they can "live" within terms of the memorandum at least for the next few years. Their acceptance was based on the fact that all the limitations placed on the Army have escape clauses which may permit Army concepts and tactics to grow with technology. For example, the Wilson mem orandum continued the present 5,000-pound limitation on the weight of Army aircraft a limitation the Army wanted lift ed. The memorandum, however, adds that the secretary of de fense may "make specific ex ceptions to this limitation" for specific aircraft for specific pur poses. Army officials disclosed that about the same time Wilson was signing the memorandum, he turned around and signed papers permitting the Army to work on two planes about twice the weight limitation a 12,500 pound transport and a 9,500 pound observation plane. Americans in Britain Begin To Feel Cool Political Climate London (U.R) Americans in 1 The newspapers are down- Britain are beginning to feel the cold. It's not the weather but the po litical climate. There's no question about it. Anglo-American relations are at a new low. An American reading certain newspapers here 22 days after Anglo - French f o r c es invaded Egypt would get the impression that it's all the United States' fault. Gasoline and fuel oil ration ing begins here next month. The shortage is already acute. Who's being blamed? Uncle Sam, for not sending millions of gallons over immediately. The friendly criticism between resident Americans and Britons has always been a part of life here, and rightfully so. It's often fun. There's the American criticism of the lack of central heating here. Our acid comments on the gentlemanly game of cricket. Tea. Back come the British with their charges that we are over paid, oversexed and over here. But as the Suez crisis drags on, the bantering is taking on a more querulous tone. right outspoken about it. "Ike cold-shoulders Britain over Suez," said a headline in the empire-minded Daily Ex press today. "Eisenhower friend or foe?" asked the Evening News. The Express story saidt Mr. Eisenhower had sent Britain into exile because of the Egyptian crisis. It said Britain was "los ing confidence" in its transatlant ic ally. The opposition party and its press, which violently opposed Prime Minister Anthony Eden's action in Egypt, was also join ing the "criticize America" cam paign, but not as bitterly as the Conservatives. Spokesman for the American Embassy and U. S. Information Media here admitted they were "deeply disturbed" at the trend. Road Improvement Plans Outlined by State Commission 9 Salem U.PJ Plans were outlined by the Oregon Highway Commission yesterday to allot $28,900,000 for major improve mwt projects on interstate, pri mary, secondary and urban routes in central Oregon. Most of the money will be fed eral aid funds. State Highway Engineer W. C. Williams said plans call for $18,156,000 in projects on the Columbia river interstate high way: S.551.000 in primary high . ways, 82,935,000 on secondary highways and asother $2,058,000 on urban routes. Work Planned, on 97 Williams, who earlier had given details cf four and two lane projects on the Columbia river highway, said the bulk of the work scheduled elsewhere on primary roads in central Ore gon was planned on The Dalles California .highway U. S. 97 "The biggest single project on U.S. 97 will involve a 6.87 mile stretch between The Dalles and Eightmile. Acquiring rights-of-way and grading and paving on this section will cost about $1, 956.000," Williams said. Other primary projects include $365,000 for paving a 20.8 mile 'stretch of the Sentral Oregon highway between Fort Rock road and Brothers; S890.000 for grad ing and paving a 5.45 mile sec tion between ' Willowdale and Lyle Gap on U.S. 97; $550,000 for grading and paving north of Madras; nine miles of grading and paving on Sherman high way between Grass Valley and Kent costing $540,000.

Williams said one of the big gest secondary highway projects would involve expenditure of $660,000 on grading and paving along the Mt. Hood highway be-, tween Parkdale and Hood River. !

' Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Prtsi Correspondent Hollyod U.R) One of the smash record hits of the day features two little girls barely out of knee pants, but Pa tience, 14, and Prudence, 11, are the first to admit that listeners hear eight voices, not two. The young sters' record inz of an old Billy Rose tune, "Tonight You Belong to Me," brought Billy a new fortune in royalties. It also made the pretty moppets the rage of the juke boxes. When I tracked down Patience and Prudence the girls confessed the two breathless voices that caused a sensation actually were their voices recorded four times. "On records our voices are multiplied," explained Prudence, an elfin girl with a pony tail hair-do. "You see, our voices are very small and very weak. They don't sound good alone. So when we record we repeat the song four times." TV Offers Shunned The girls have been turning down countless offers to appear on TV shows. For one thing, their father, Mark Mclntyre, a composer-arranger who's respon sible for their success, doesni want them to work much be cause, "We're Just average peo ple, and my wife and I are try ing not to upset their lives witn this success." Besides, the girls can't sound in person as they do on records. On their one TV appearance, the Perry Como Show, two grown up singers helped them out be hind the scenes. "We explained to Mr. Como we have such tiny voices we couldn't get good balance with the orchestra," said Patience, a pert junior high miss with long, fluffy hair. "So two of his chorus stood backstage and sang with us. Stage Trickery Told "I guess It was a kind of a trick to play on the audience," she added bashfully. Patience and Prudence live with their Barents in a comfort able, early-American style home in the suburb of Toluca Lake. "One day we were driving home from the beach when Pru- dy and I began to sing this old sons we learned at camp," Pa tience told me. "I sang the har mony and Prudy the melody. Daddy thought we should record it just for kicks and send it to our grandparents." Mclntyre's friends at Liberty Records agreed to wax the tune. The grandfathers (Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Mclntyre of Navasota, Tex., and Mrs. Vada Sharp, Dal las. Ore.,) received the record. But Liberty thought it was so catchy it was released to the public, too.
