Titan Missile
Makes Test Flight
Cape Canaveral, Fla. -&PD-An
Air Force Titan missile,
apparently free of a long
series of .troubles that plagued
it last year, roared off on a
5.000 mile test flight over the
Atlantic Tuesday.
The Titan, a two-stage in
tercontinental ballistic mis
file, is supposed to be combat
ready by the end of the year.
Tuesday's launching was the
seventh success in 11 tries for
the 98-foot missile.
Recovery teams, were sta
tioned in the South Atlantic
near Ascension Island to try
to recover a data capsule from
the nose cone which was
equipped with a radio beacon
to help the searchers.
The flight was designed to
test a radio-inertial guidance
system which sent back mes
sages to ground crews about
the maneuvers it would have
taken during the flight if it
were actually controlling the
missile's direction.
Nixon's Attitude on Domestic
Issues Due To Face Challenge
Satellite Launch
Attempt Fails
Cape Canaveral, Fla. -HJPD-The
United States tried to
send a satellite into orbit to
day to study radiation perils
facing space travelers but the
attempt failed.
The rocket was launched at
8:35 a.m. (p.s.t.) but 50 min
utes later the National Aero
nautics and Space Adminis
tration announced in Wash
ington that the 35.3 pound
satellite had not gone into orbit.
Rocket scientists at Cape
Canaveral suspected that one
of the upper stages of the
four-stage Juno II rocket fail
ed to ignite. No indication was
received that either the third
or fourth stages fired.
The payload had been sent
up in what had been planned
as the broadest study yet of
the deadly radiation belt
round earth called the Van
Allen belt.

Washington -The whole
range of domestic affairs
I forms a battleground more
pitted with -controversy for
Vice President Richard M.
Nixon than his views on for
eign policy.
As a previous article poin
ted out. he is clearly " inter
nationalist" on foreign affairs
- a position which makes the
probable Republican Presi
dential nominee relatively in
vulnerable in that field
against the opposing Demo
crats. But a special report on Nix
on's detailed stands and vot
ing record prepared by Con
gressional Quarterly displays
a Nixon record on the "pocket
book" issues - economic poli
cy, taxes, civil benefits, etc.
- which often clashes resound
ingly with the opposition.
This is what Nixon himself
said about his economic phil
osophy in 1958: ". . . it has al
ways been what I would call a
conservative philosophy, con
servative certainly on fiscal
matters, conservative in the
sense that, generally speaking,
private enterprise can do a
more effective job than gov
ernment enterprise in any par
ticular field . . ."
Nixon is against '"huge new
governmental spending pro
grams . . . not because we op
pose the goals of the programs
but because we know they
won't produce what they pro
mise." Supports Administration
Nixon has suported the Ad
ministration in its "sound dol
lar" and "balanced budget"
policies. Last month he said:
"I think that any administra
tion would be taking a com
pletely irresponsible position
. . . to simply wink at and to
laugh off additional expendi
tures which might unbalance
the budget without national
security reasons to do so."

FARLEY TO RUN
New York-(UPD-New York
Democratic Party Leader Car
mine G. DeSapio has an
nounced that James A. Far
ley, former postmaster gen
eral and campaign manager
for President Roosevelt, will
run for Democratic National
Convention delegate in Manhattan.
But he has not gotten direct
ly into the controversy over
whether national security now
demands more defense spend
ing. Of complaints about the so
called "missile gap," he said
in January: "We need con
stant examination and con
structive criticism of our de
fense posture, pointing up our
weakness where they exist.
But constructive criticism is
one thing; making America
appear weaker than she is to
potential aggressors is an
other. It is time to quit sel
ling America short. We are
not a second-rate country . . ."
He says there is no "deter
rent gap" in American defen
ses and will not be "in 1961,
1962, 1963 or the forseeable
future. "The Administration's
program, he says, "is and will
be devised to assure the Amer
ican people that there will be
no deterrent gap."
Nixon was the first person
in the Administration to point
out the challenge presented
by the launching of the Rus
sian satellite Oct. 4, 1957,
when he said 11 days later
that "we could make no great
er mistake than to brush off
this event as a scientific
stunt . . ."
Education
Nixon will be severely at
tacked by the Democrats on
his aid-to-education stands. On
Feb. 3, he refused to break a
tie vote in the Senate to pass
an amendment which would
have authorized federal aid to
school construction and teach
ers' salaries. He said of that
action that "we believe that
the federal government should
limit its aid, in the case -of
education, to construction."
Nixon supports the Admin
istration on the support-of-school-bonds
approach rather
than outright grants to com
munities for school construc
tion. This contrasts with Nix
on's - and the Adminstration's
- position on aid to school
construction in 1957. That
year President Eisenhower
proposed a direct-grant bill
which Nixon urged Congress
to pass. It did not pass and
the Administration has since
turned to the bond approach.
On Jan. 15, Nixon said "I
believe that education is and
should remain primarily a lo
cal and state responsibility
Nixon's record on civil
Ing "a flexible parity system
aimed at keeping surpluses
under control; . . . developing
new markets; increased re

Nixon wrote, with Sen. Karl
E. Mundt (R-S.D.), the Mundt
Nixon bill in 1948. It would
have required Communist
front organizations to register
with the Attorney General.
The bill was incorporated in
the Internal Security Act pas
sed in 1950.
Here are Nixon's views on
other areas on the domestic
front:
Labor- Voted for the Taft
Hartley Act over President
Truman's veto in 1947. Said of
the labor reform bill passed
last year: "The bill, which has
been much criticized by some
sections of labor, I think was
the proper approach."
Farm Problems- In 1955,
he outlined the Adminstra
tion's farm program, includ-
Congress I cem t,rlue "PP""s.
Slum Clearance Builders
should "step up in the United
States a dynamic program to
eradicate slum and blighted
areas." While in Congress, he
opposed most programs for
public housing and slum clear
ance. Taxes- He has called for
"more liberal treatment of de
preciation for business taxa
tion purposes," consideration
of "downward adjustments .in
business taxes." study of over
hauling excise taxes and he
has complained about the "al
most confiscatory rates in the
high (income) brackets (which)
stifle and prevent risk-taking
and encourage tax avoidance
devices." Of these views, he
said on Sept. 6, 1958: "The
charge will inevitably be
made that such reforms will
benefit business and not. the
people . . . but let us under
stand once and for all that
'business is the people'."

Try and Sfop Me
: By BENNETT CERF
A FEW GAFFS that have sent TV personnel reeling: 1. A
bee-you-tee-ful hostess was singing the praises of a
strawberry pie for a gorgeously gooey commercial. A prop
man noticed at the last
minute that the ' usual
whipped - cream, topping
was missing, so he sub
stituted shaving cream.
The hostess took one fat
bite ... 2. An announcer
declared a certain dog
food was the delight of
every pooch. "Watch
Towser devour this," he
urged. Some pranksters
in the studio, however,
had substituted sawdust
for the dog food, Towser
took one sniff, then bit
the announcer in the
ankle. 3. Two announcers fluffed. One, describing a dainty
beauty, proclaimed, "Her breath will take your beauty away."
The second attributed a news .flash, to "xespected White
House souses."
A Hollywood psychiatrist is experimenting with a new form of
shock treatment for his wealthier patients. He sends them his
bill in advance.
