Russian Space Ship Rocket Tests
Finished; Missiles Mass-Produced
London -WPD- The Russians
have completed tests of a
rocket capable of boosting a
10-ton space ship into orbit
and are mass-producing mis
siles of the type they say
downed Francis G. Powers'
U-2, it was reported today.
British experts skilled at
evaluating the scantiest scraps
of information about Russia
placed this interpretation on
the report on Soviet rockets
appearing in the new edition
of Jane's "All the World's
Aircraft."
, The air annual was able to
assemble only three pages of
data on Russian rockets, most
of it culled from Soviet publi
cations, against 34 pages on
U.S. rocket developments.
Jane's also noted "persis
tent reports" that Russia has
submarines capable of launch
ing nuclear missiles while sub
merged. Pilotlesi Plana
European military writers
were interested in Jane's re
port that the United Stales is
developing a pilotlcss plane
which could be used in germ
and chemical warfare. Jane
said the drone, designated as
the SD2, is being built for the
U.S. Army by the Aerojet-
General Corporation.
It is smaller than the small
est light aircraft, Jane's said
and could carry more than
200 pounds of germ agents as
much as 115 miles. Experts
said the range undoubtedly
could be increased if neces
sary.
The SD2, said Jane's, is des
ignated to be launched by two
rocket boosters from an Army
trailer, to be directed by re
mote control and to fly at a
speed of 345 miles an hour,
Both the aircraft handbook
and other sources believe the
long range rockets Russia
fired into the Pacific last
year are designed for use
either as space boosters or
weapons. One of these rockets
is said to have traveled 8,000

Where do you stay
in PORTLAND?
AT THE HEATHMAN
w'tn FRf-R.yP.SLf. Parkin9
Staying at a Heathman Hotel in Portland now makes
more lense than ever . . . That's because Heathman
rates now start at just J 5 plus "bonus" Free covered
parking in Heathman's own garage! . . . Add this to all
the attractions for which Heathman is known: Central
location, wide range of choice accommodations, three
famed restaurants, including the exotic Aloha room.
Now, more than ever before, staying at home-owned,
home-managed Heathman Hotels is good business
great pleasurel

miles and landed within a few
miles of its target.
Moon Landing Next Item
British authorities believe
the rocket could boost about
10 tons of satellite or space
ship into orbit or land a lunar
laboratory on to the moon.
One British expect recently
on Russia, Patrick Moore, is
certain a moon-robot landing
is the next big item in the So
viet space program.
The same rockets could be
used for manned space flight
since they could orbit a cap
sule roughly twice the re
ported weight of the heaviest
satellite yet launched by the
Russians.
As potential weapons, these
rockets apparently have not
yet superseded the Russian T3
intercontinental ballistic mis
sile described by Jane's as a
three-stage liquid - propelled
rocket weighing about 300
000 pounds.
"Test firings of the ICBM
over long ranges have been
detected frequently by the
U. S. radar listening post on
Mount Samsum In Turkey,
Jane's said, "and adaptations
of this weapon are said to
have been used to launch Rus
sia's IGY (International Geo
physical Year) sputniks."
In the manned aircraft sec
tion of Jane's, as well as in
rockets, the scope and diversi
ty of American activity
swamp the known Soviet ef
forts - but the Russians ap
parently have made some im
pressive achievements in those
fields in which they are press
ing ahead.
Almost All Cuban
Judiciary Said To
Be Underground
Telephone CA 8-5212 Portland, Oregon
Miami, Fla.-IUPII-An exiled
Cuban Supreme Court justice
said today that almost the en
tire membership of the Cuban
judiciary has gone underground.
Former Judge Francisco
Alabau Trelles, 35, said it was
the desertion of the judges
which prompted Fidel Cas
tro's announcement today that
17 supreme court justices
have been fired, and that the
governor will reorganize the
lower court system.
Freedom Said Gone
Alabau Trelles, who arrived
in Florida, in a small boat
Dec. 12 said "all freedom" of
Cuban judges to administer
justice "disappeared" about
four months ago.
He said the Association of
Cuban Judges decided then to
oppose Castro. He said 522
of the 528 members agreed
with the plan1.
It called for them either
to go underground or leave
the country, the refugee judge
said.
The plan was upset when
Castro ordered the Supreme
Court to censure the chief
justice, Emilio Menedez. Of
the 30 justices on the court

with Menedez, 12 voted In
favor of the censure, nine re
fused, and eight hid out to
avoid voting.
Tipped Off to Plan
This forced Menedez, Ala
bau Trelles said, to take
refuge in the Argentine Em
bassy. And this tipped off Cas
tro to the judges' plan.
Alabau Trelles said he de
cided to try to get out of
Cuba and direct the efforts of
the other judges to escape.
After two unsuccessful at
tempts to flee, he escaped in
a boat and arrived in the
Florida Keys Dec. 12.
Sheep Receive
Grazing Approval
Portland (UPD A herd of
sheep in Coos county - ac
cused of eating trees - have a
court's permission to remain
on government property for
the time being.
The ruling was handed
down Tuesday by U. S. Dis
trict Court Judge John F. Kil
kenny, who refused to grant
the government's request for
a no-trespassing Injunction
against the sheep.
Defendant In the case is
Howard Lealherman, presi
dent of the Coos County
Sheep Co., Inc.
Leatherman holds several
government grazing leases,
and, he admits, his herds oc
casionally wander onto ad
jacent reforestation projects.
The controversy started
when U.S. Forest Service men
contended the sheep not only
were grazing on grass, but
also were dining on newly
planted Douglas fir trees.
Leatherman said the trees
that were destroyed, died from
natural causes.
Judge Kilkenny said he
would take the matter under
advisement until May. In the
meantime, he suggested,
Leatherman and the govern
ment might work out leases
farther away from reforesta
tion projects.
