May 27, 1960 A " Danes Probe U.S. Pilot's Slcry of Report on Wind Wiesbaden, Gtrmnnv-'l'PD The Danish Air Force opened a quiet investigation today Into a disputed claim that in accurate wind information caused a U. S. transport plane to stray into Communist East Germany last Friday. The claim was made by the pilot of the plane, U S. Air Force Capt. Janus P. Lundy of Findlay, Ohio, at a news conference here Thurs day. He said Copenhagen's Vaerloese Airport told him the wind was blowing from the east when actually it was blowing from the west. The Copenhagen newspaper Belingske Tidende promptly quoted a Danish Air Force spokesman as saying this was i bad excuse. Wo Comment on Report "Even if Lundy received the wrong weather informa tion at takeoff from Vaer loese Airfield he ought to have discovered it after 10 or 15 minutes of flying." the paper quoted the unnamed official as saying. Well informed sources in Copenhagen told United 1'ress International the Da nish Air Force would look into the matter unofficially but would not make any com ment on the newspaper's re port. It was believed a U.S. Air Force investigation of the in cident, which resulted in the plane and its nine occupants being held in Communist East Germany for five days, would go into Lundy's claim thor oughly.

Foreign Minister Aiichiro Fujiyama mode the announce ment, after a conference with Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi and several other cabi net ministers. Leaders of the extreme left ist Zengakuren student orga nization have gone so for as to threaten to stone Eisen hower it he comes to Japan. Even top in embers of the opposition Democratic Party have demanded tile visit be cancelled -or postponed. Leftist student, labor and p o 1 i l-i c a 1 leaders h a v c whipped up a storm of oppo sition in Japan to the new United Slotes-Ja'ian security treaty which Kishi's Liberal Democratic parly rammed through the lower house of Parliament last week. Mammoth demonstrations in Tokyo and other parts of Japan Thursday were aimed mainly at killing (he treaty and felling Kishi's govern ment but they spilled over into attacks on Eisenhower.

"I am not at liberty to quote him just now but you'll be hearing about it before long." I will reply smugly, and then change the subject. That ought to give them a ease of coffee nerves. Sidewalk Superintending Tiie truth is, Nixon and I were discussing some of the fine points of sidewalk-superintending, which has only minor political significance. Moroccan Qt President'; Seeks Ey PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Editor The man - of - ihe - week: King Mohammed V of Mo rocco. The place: Rabat, Mo rcrco. The quote: The new re gime will be a "presidential system within a monarchy." Since Morocco achieved its independence a little more than four vcars ago, the 50- wTrv.jsjers year-old King nad striven to hold himself above politics and to act as a balance wheel bet ween the rival ries of the p o 1 itical rights and lefts. Now he was abandoning a series of futile coalition governments and re serving all final decisions for himself. Day-to-day rule, he said would be carried out through his son, Crown Prince Moulay Hassan, 31. Full of Risks For this westernmost of the Arab kings, it was a decision full of risks. The premier he ousted, leftist Abdallah Ibra him, 45, was a member of the powerful Istiqlal (Freedom) party which would be certain to oppose any sharp swing to the right. The party's left wing, which Ibrahim leads, bases its ideas on Marxist theories. It favors strong ties with U.A.R. Presi dent Gamal Abdel Nasser and opposes conservative hopes for an independent grouping of Morocco, Algeria and Tu nisia. The latter view Is close to Mohammed's own. taveW g MONTH Ask for "lit!

Enjoy- The Great Whiskey i" w ' MjmwiWi mm prospective coup in namc-j dropping came about. As I j have indicated, it happened ' 'at a column-raising As you know if you have seen any pictures of the U.S. Capitol recently, the building is getting a new east front, a project which, incidentally, is costing us taxpayers about $21,000,000. Part of the work involves the installation of 24 massive marble columns to replace the old sandstone supports. This week the first column was hoisted into place and a large crowd of sidewalk sup erintendents was on hand to assist. Nixon was there and Dirk sen was there and Malleek was there, but T didn't sec Kennedy or Johnson or Sym ington. It was stiange they didn't show up because all presidential and vice presi dential hopefuls have a per sonal interest in tile project at this point. Tiie east front is the place where the inauguration will be held next January and anyone who has dreams of King Assumes Role Mohammed is immensely popular with his people, but his son is not, a possible trou ble source in Mohammed's new regime. In theory Mohammed has absolute power of life and death over his approximately 10 million subjects. In prac tice he has never tried to wield it. He has granted broad authority to his minis ters, and by patience and pru dence preserved his country's capitalistic economy while at the same time avoiding totalitarianism. In the Day's Nevs By FRANK At the hour this is written our President is getting ready to go on the air waves to tell about the summit flop . . . and the why of it . . . and maybe to answer some of his critics . . . who have been contending that it was dirty pool to use fancy modern equipment to spy on the nice and diplomat ically proper Russians who have been using (in a BIG way) on us only the time-honored and tradition-sanctioned methods of spying . . . and anyway, Ike's critics contend, we shouldn't have let our selves get caught at it. AND- -i It is harelv oossible Ike might mention tonight our new and ultra-modern spy team - the Midas-Samos ro bots. If so. he might be justi fied in adding that in the way of modern, scientific spying the world "ain't seen nothin' yet." of th Old West a tm. ih mn wmii'smiis ? I happened to be standing beside the vice president of the capitol steps as the first 13-ton column went swinging overhead. We agreed it was a tricky job for sidewalk sup erintendents to handle be cause we had to look up all the time. By training and in stinct, sidewalk superinten dents look down. About this time, a photog rapher came along with Hal leek in tow and he obligingly struck a running - mate pose with Nixon. "This is better than a smoke - filled room," Nixon said. Someone asked if Nixon had any guarantee that the cast front would be finished in time for "your big day". "Look out for your fingers, boys," he called to some workmen. The column was gently lowered into place without mishap and Nixon turned away with the satisfied air of a sidewalk superintendent who has seen a good job well done. He never did answer the question. Stability His is the ancient land of the Moors who at one time held most of North Africa and Spain. As a direct de scendant of the prophet Mo hammed, his subjects kiss his hand to gain the blessing of Islam. But his daughters were among the first to appear in public without veils and wear bikinis at "Moroccan beaches. His most recent move is his closest yet to absolute rule. But his aim is economic and political stability and a consti tutional regime within two years. JENKINS WHO'S Midas? Who's Samos? Well, Midas is already . it In space, whirling around the earth approximately once every hour and a half. As he whirls around his orbit, he scans this terrestrial globe and sends back word of what he FEELS. If he feels the hot blast of a missile taking off from its launching pad, he tips us off. His tip will give us about a half hour to GET READY - to get into our holes HERE AT HOME and to HIT BACK at our enemy by launching missiles and bomb ers at him to blow him to Kingdom Come. MIDAS is already on the ioh. Snmos isn't nnitn ready yet. His job will be to whirl around the earth, LOOKING instead of feeling. What he sees, he will flash back to us in the form of pic tures. THE two are designed to - work as a team. As a mat ter of fact, Samos is designed to get into the act first. He will spy out menacing military movements on the part of an enemy and SEND BACK PIC TURES OF THEM. These pic tures will be instantly availa ble to our military leaders for interpretation just as in war fare of the rather immediate past camera planes have brought back to headquarters pictures of what the enemy is doing, thus tipping off to our high command what the ene my is up to. The big difference is that Samos will be away out in space and presumably can't be shot down. There will be no waiting for development of the films. Samos will flash 'em back by what amounts to TV. In practice, Samos will work first. He'll send back the pictures of what the en emy is doing. If the enemy touches off a missile in the course of his strategic maneu vers, Midas will send back word of that. When we get the word from Midas that the en emy has COME INTO AC TION, we can go into action -with a half hour to spare be fore the enemy's missiles hit us. DIRTY pool? Certainly not! It's self-preservation. If we can convince the enemy that If he starts something we'll DESTROY HIM, he may re frain from starting something. That would be a long step toward ending war.
