MONDAY, JUNE I. 19(0 U2 Plane Of Uncle Safn as Big, By WARREN DUFFEE Washington-dlPB-A real life cloak-and-dagger thriller ipun around the intriguing name "U2" has given most Amer icans their first view of Uncle Sam as a big-time operator in the shady, deceitful and dangerous world of interna tional espionage. It also brought, with a shock to many U.S. citizens, the public admission that their government will -and does-tell baldface lies to cov er spying activities. And in the tense days since the high-flying U2 was down ed in Russia May 1, the world has seen for the first time head of state-President Ei- ENDS TUESDAY una mm am m UNDUDlE-DUlWir Ride a m I XML AUDIE MURPHY GIA SCALA TONITE & TUESDAY The Glorious Story of AMERICA'S GREATEST ENTERTAINER!

These are some of the de velopments that bothered the Senate Foreign Relations Committee when it began top secret hearings a week ago into the ill-fated U2 flight and other circumstances sur rounding collapse of the Paris summit conference. Committee Still Bothered They still bother most of the members, including Chair man J. William Fulbright (D-Ark.). The committee end ed the hearings on Thursday and will begin considering a report this week. But it may never agree on one. After four days of tightly guarded hearings, with wit nesses' testimony carefully censored, a lot more is known about what happened. But there Is still doubt in the minds of some senators as to why it happened. Also still unanswered is, where do we go from here? Out of the welter of testi mony - 681 censor-screened pages - this general picture emerges: The United States, of course has been spying all along with the activities directed by the hush hush Central Intelli gence Agency headed by Al len W. Dulles. This was no secret to anyone around Washington or overseas, U2 Flights Since 19S6 This country has been us ing the high-altitude U2, a single-engined Jet reconnais sance plane that can fly above the reach of any Soviet inter ceptors, since ' 1956 for 'valu able photographic work and weather information gather ing. Several successful flights were made across Russia be fore the May 1 incident when pilot Francis G. Powers was captured by the Soviets. The summit meeting was scheduled to begin two weeks later in Paris. By that time, the United States had "told all" and admitted the U2's spy role. President Eisenhow er took personal responsibil ity for the espionage activity in an unprecedented depar ture from historical practice. Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev, in torpedoing the Summit conference, blamed the U2 incident. However, both Secretary of State Christian A. Herter and Defense Secretary Thomas S. Gates Jr. told the commit; tee they thought Khrushchev' had determined to wreck the . - . you can . . . $100.00 FREE bt Sinfrffna Cleaned , , , $0F -1 n m A mm K . r: J 1 . , fresh and ready for wear when needed in the fall..; Deceitful meeting before the UJ gave him an excuse. ' , ' . Why was? the flight- neces sary so near the surAmlt date? Eisenhower told the nation that the information the plane was seeking might not have been available at a later date. Fulbright said the com mittee never was able to find out what specific data, the plane was seeking, even from Dulles, whose entire testi mony was kept secret.
