Those Two-Stage Jobs?'
by launching their now-famous
"sputnick I" on Oct. 4.
The first satellite a globe
22 inches in diameter or about
twice the size of a basketball
is still hurtling around the earch
in its orbit about 560 miles
rbove the earth's crust
Radio Moscow said the new
satellite weighs 508.3 kilograms
(1.222 pounds) in comparison to
the: 184 pounds of its perdeces-
sor.
The "sputnik" is hurtling at
the rate of 8,000 meters (five
miles) per second, or about 18,
000 miles per hour the same
speed as sputnik 1. -Special
Effort Made
The satellite was launched as
a special effort in connection
with the 40th anniversary of
the Russian revolution. The an
niversary will be celebrated
Thursday and the Soviets had
been expected to try to send
up another satellite sometime
during this week.
Moscow radio's special broad
cast announceing the new
launching said sputnik II is
more apparatus than the first
one. It carries apparatus for
measuring radiation of the sun
and short wave, ultra violet and
X-rays, the broadcast said.
The announcement said the
satellite will pass over Moscow
between 7 and 9 a.m. Moscow
timetonight (11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
EST.).
The new satellite carries ap
paratus for measuring cosmic
rays, temperature and pressure,
Tass reported.
It said the dog, type unde
scribed, is in a hermetically
sealed, air-conditioned contain
er which carries a supply of
food and instruments for meas
uring the effect of cosmic con
ditions on a living body.
The annoucement said the sat
ellite wil circle the globe in one
hour 42 minutes. It said signals
already received indicated all
apparatus aboard was function
ing normally and the dog seem
ed to be "doing well."
Tass did not announce over
what radio frequencies the new
sputnik is broadcasting.

Big Step
Last Block Removed
With Zhukov Drop
In Russian Power
Criticism Now
From Soviet Councils
Washington HP) American
officials said Saturday that Niki
ta Khrushchev has moved a big
step nearer unchallenged dicta
torship in Russia, increasing the
chances of tension or even war.
They emphasized that no one
can predict immediately how
the brash, vodka-swigging com
munist leader will use his in
creased power.
For the present, they said, he
still does not(Thave the status
of a "second Stalin," and he
probably will reemphasize the
principle of party and collective
leadership.
But there was no doubt here
that by banishing Marshal Geor
gi Zhukov from top positions
in both the communist party
and the Soviet government,
Khrushchev has removed the
last figure of great prestige and
ambition who might have chal
lenged his dominance.
Now, American experts on .
Soviet affairs said, the impetu
ous Khrushchev's whims and
snap judgments will be less like
ly to come under criticism in
soviet high councils.
Increase in Risk
The net result is an Increase
in the risk of a Soviet "mis
calculation," which President
Eisenhower, Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles and others
have called a great danger.
, Mrvi. Eisenhower had .no im
mediate comment when handed
a copy of a United Press dis
patch from Moscow -.- reporting
Zhukov's expulsion as he
watched the Army-Colgate foot
ball game at West Point, N.Y.
Allen W. Dulles, Chief of the
Central Intelligence Agency,
said in a Sept. 19 speech that
Khrushchev's "impetuosity and
unpredictability remain a mat
ter of grave concern in an in
ternational situation as tense as
that of today."
Struggle Will ContinuQ
the Moscow struggle will con
tinue. They do not rule out
the possibility that Khrushchev
himself one day will suffer the
fate of his ousted colleagues.
The indications are that Khrush
chev did not win the battle with
out tense moments and perhaps
extra innings.
One big question here I s
whether some more harsh talk,
and perhaps action will come
out of Moscow to give the im
pression that all' is serene and
unified.
Actually the outcome may be
a mixture of both as the Soviets
seek to divert attention from
their home front bickering.
Moscow (W The central
committee of the Soviet Com
munist party Saturday night an
nounced the expulsion of Mar
shal Georgi Zhukov from the
committee and its all-powerful
presidium fc" trying to "liquid
ate" the party's control over the
armed forces.
Zhukov was reported to have
admitted his "errors."
The official announcement
was issued seven days after the
61-year-old war hero was re
lieved of his post as defense min
ister. It accused him of. estab
lishing a Stalinist "cult of his
personality" with the aid of
"flatterers and bootlickers" who
praised him "to the high heav
ens" in everything from broch
ures to motion picture films.
But the committee, meeting
in secrecy at the Kremlin ear
lier this week, stopped short of
stripping Zhukov of all honors.
It appeared he would retain
party membership and would
be permitted to keep all his ti
tles and decorations. It also was
believed possible he would keep
his seat in the supreme Soviet
(parliament).
It appeared however there
would be no shakeup of the top
military commands.
Who would replace Zhukov on
the committee and on the 15
member presidium was not
known.
Athen (IP) Mayor George
Christopher of San Francisco
said tonight he would not be
forced out of the race for the
Republican nomination for U.S.
Senate by reports that Gov.
Goodwin Knight might seek the
nomination.
