The visiting journalists have been here all week wait- inz to see the first launching of the 1,500-mile weapon by a Royal Air Force crew, but so far they have "waited in vain. Firings Postponed The Thor was slated to be blasted over the Pacific mis sile range both Tuesday and Wednesday but the firings were postponed, once because of bad weather and the sec ond time for unspecified "tech nical" reasons. "That giving 'technical' rea sons for the delay," said one British newsman, "means to the British public that the dam thing won't work." Washington tells us that the Thor is operational," said an other, "but our government says it has not yet reached that capability." However, at least one of the British observers took excep tion to the views of his col leagues. Rear Adm. Angus Nicholl, Royal Navy (ret.), now mili tary commentator for the Brit ish Broadcasting Corp., said "there's nothing wrong with the missile; rather, it requires extremely skilled people to handle such weapons, and that undoubtedly is what is caus ing some of 'the delay." Got To Be Right The Thor, Nicholl conced ed, "is very expensive and they've got to be quite sure they're right before any fir ing . . . with inexperienced personnel (such as the British launch crews) there still is some difficulty in interpret ing the complicated instru ments. It's the training that they are here for, and techni cal delays are quite possible rather than weather delays." "It isn't fair to say the Thor is not operational, but the newsman's reaction is that of a critic," Nicholl said. "He gets into the habit of being cynical about official state ments." The American - made Thor missile already lines British bases as a deterrent weapon against Russia. British troops have been brought here to be trained in its use and the pres ent firing caps their gradua tion exercises. POTATO .

Log Truck Weight Mile Tax Favored . Salem-(UPD-The Joint Ways and Means Committee Wed nesday recommended passage of House bill 29 which would eliminate the flat fee option for logging trucks and place such trucks under the weight mile tax law.
