HOTEL MEDFORD DINING ROOM Open To Pick Up Soon, McElrey Dedares "Waahintoft Produc tion of introediat rang ballis tic misil?jr (IRBM) which even tually a'ill rine Russia can begin t pick vg tteam tlmost im mediately, authorities said today. Defense Secretary Neil H. Mc tlrey pulled the stope Vednes 6t 7 when he informed Congress Rk had told both the Army and tfte Air force to put their 1,500 mile range missiles into produc tion. The missiles trf the Air force Thor end Army Jupiter. In ordkrinf the move McElroy traversed his own earlier inten tion to eelect only one of the two weapons which are designed for identicel purpose. Fqasible Awe Some Defense Department ex perte were quick to view the Mc Elroy move as a possible answer to critic eho contend inter service rivalry hes been dam aging. Within the short span of just two years, under heavy Army, AirForce and industrial competition, the United States now has two IRBMs judged suf ficiently advanced to be ordered into production. Many authorities doubt the IRBM program could have been that far advanced without the stimulus of competition. On the heels of McElroy's dis closure to the Senate Prepared ness subcommittee the Air Force announced its Thor is "already in production" and had been "for some time." The Thor was under stood to be coming from a Doug las Aircraft company assembly line at a rate of two a month. The rate probably can be in creased to 10 a month very quick ly and reach two or three dozen a month in a year's time. The Army said it expects to put its Jupiter into production in a Chrysler Corp. plant "in a relatively short time." ries GRANVILLE FEATHERINGILL Granville Featheringill 414 South Riverside street, died in a local hospital Wednesday eve ning.
