RAT GETS HIDE Al Knight, 17, a high school student at
Winter Haven, Fla., checks a small white rat that he said
he used as a passenger in a four foot, eight inch rocket he
blasted to an altitude of 27,500 feet. The rocket hobbyist
said the two stage solid fuel rocket was fitted with para
chutes and that he recovered both stages and the rat alive
and well after the flight. Knight said he kept his test a
secret because he feared authorities might stop him.

of three excerpti from the book,
"Peace with Russia?", by former
New York Gov. Averell Harriman,
who served as ambassador to the
Soviet Union from 1943 to 1946
and recently completed a tour of
the country.
By AVERELL HARRIMAN
(Distributed by uri)
The single most vital ques
tion anyone examining So
viet policy must ask is:
Do the Soviet leaders still
consider their first objective
world revolution and their
primary task today to make
the Soviet Union a bastion
from which to launch their
assault on the non-Communist
world, or are they beginning
to modify their global am
bitions and hand their ener
gies to building a Russia for
the Russians in which the
Soviet citizens can enjoy the
high standards of living
which their skills and re
sources entitle them to?
When I was in the Soviet
Union as American ambassa
dor in 1946 much of the So
viet Union from its western
frontiers to Stalingrad 1,500
miles to the east lay largely
in ruins.
Fields Barren
Its fields were scorched and
barren. Its villages had in
many cases been burned to
the ground. Those factories
which had not been evacu
ated to the Urals had been
destroyed. But now with their
remarkable energy the Rus
sian people were once more
cultivating the wheat-bearing
steppes; they had rebuilt the
villages and reconstructed industry.
Since my departure I had
followed the reports that So
viet economic strength had
far surpassed the pre-war
levels and that the standard
of living of the people was
higher than It had been since
the Revolution. The sputnik
had demonstrated the genius
of the scientists and the skill
of its engineers. Perhaps, as
some Americans had suggest
ed, all these accomplishments
had cooled the ardor of the
Kremlin leaders for world
revolution. Perhaps at last
there was a tendency to
develop the Russian economy
for the benefit of the Rus
sian people rather than to
give first priority to build
ing a powerful base for world
Communism.

Falcon is having the best
first year any car ever had
. . . over 250.000 already
sold since introduction . . . going
at the record rate of 10,000 every

world's most successful new car?
Economy t
To begin with, Falcon is Ameri

car. . . $64 to $154 less than the
other compacts.
; "Falcon delivers the best fuel
economy of the three new compact
cars," says Motor Trend magazine.
Owner reports and fleet operator
logs consistently show Falcon
mileage figures of up to 30 miles
per gallon with regular gas.
Falcon goes 4,000 miles between
oil changes, costs less to service,
less to license and in most places,
less to insure.
Falcon saves you more and still
gives you full room for 6 big

Youth Arrested for
Taking Tire Monday
An 18 -year -old Ashland
youth who could not get his
car started after taking a tire
Monday afternoon, has been
arrested by Medford police on
a charge of pettj larceny.
Stanley Loree Thomas told
police in a signed statement
that he took a tire from the
rear of a house at 106 Wil
lamette ave., and placed it in
the back seat of his car. How
ever, the car's motor died and
he could not get the car start
ed again, he said, so he left it
and walked away.
Mrs. Gertrude Lillian Gates,
of that address, discovered the
theft and the abandoned ve
hicle, and reported the inci
dent to police. Officers picked
Thomas up a short distance
away.
What I found in answer to
the question was profoundly
disturbing
In my recent visit to the
Soviet Union I had several
prolonged talks with Premier
Nikita Khrushchev and had
an opportunity to compare
him with his predecessor
Josef Stalin,
It seemed to me that where
as Stalin was a prophet of the
Marxist creed, Khrushchev is
basically a disciple and. like
most disciples, even more
fanatically faithful to its doc
trines. Moreover, Khrushchev
now has several rival high
priests of communism - Mao
Tse-tung in China, Tito in
Yugoslavia and, to a lesser de
gree, Wladyslaw Gomulka in
Poland
Khrushchev also likes to
boast, to bluff and to threaten.
Often he loses his temper and
his face flushes as he wags
his lingers under your chin,
But a moment later he is calm
again and proposes a toast of
friendship. He is a consum
mate actor and obviously en
joys making an impression on
his audience. In some respects
he may be more dangerous
than Stalin, because he is less
calculating and careful and
more impulsive. But he is cer
tainly less ruthless and ar
bitrary. It has been suggested
he is like Hitler, but I found
no resemblance whatever.
Intensely Human
Khrushchev though tough
and determined, though a
fanatical Communist and
devout believer in Marxist
doctrine, is intensely human.
gregarious and even boister
ous.
Among non-party Rsusians,
particularly in the younger
generation, I found much evi
dence - confirmed by other
foreign observers in Moscow
- that their dominant desire
to improve their own living
conditions, and that they have
little interest in the further
ance of Communist ambitions
abroad.
The engineer, the army
officer or his teacher, I sus
pect, is more interested in
getting an apartment for
himself, then a small refrig
erator for his wife, or even
on some distant day a little
car for his family, than he is
in bringing the "blessings of
Communism ' to the peoples
of Africa or Indonesia.
Peace Uppermost
Their acceptance of the
necessity for a strong military
establishment is based on the
belief pounded into them by
Kremlin propagandist that
American warmongers may
start another war and once
again destroy the gain they
have made in the last decade.
Everywhere I went I found
that the preservation of peace
was uppermost in their minds.
Perhaps one day these in
fluences will play a role inl
the councils of the Kremlin
But at the present time I find
no evidence that the cause of
world revolution lies any
more lightly than before upon
the leaders in the Kremlin
who now rule the Soviet
Union's destiny;
