By JOSEPH L. MYLER
Washington - (UPI) - The
Russians say they are going
to the moon and planets. So
are we.
The Russians, addicted to
secrecy, give no timetable
for their next man-in-space
ventures. Here are America's
plans:
-In the next couple of
months or so, two or more
suborbital rocket trips like
Alan Shepard's, with John
Glenn, Virgil Grissom, and
perhaps another astronaut on
the pilot's couch.
-Then orbital flights by a
Mercury spacecraft, the first
one empty except for instru
ments, the next one perhaps
occupied by a chimpanzee.
-Late this year or early
next, an orbital ride by a
Mercury astronaut three
times around the earth.
Eventually, the Mercury
man-in-space project may see
an astronaut sailing up to 18
times around the earth and
enduring weightlessness for
27. hours, compared to an
hour and a half for Russia's
Yuri Gagarin and five min
utes for Shepard.
Chimps Take Over
When men no longer ride
the Mercury capsule in space,
chimps may take over for ex
tended bouts with weightless
ness ranging from two days
to two weeks.
After Mercury comes
Apollo, a program to put
three men at a time into space
for periods of weeks. The
Apollo spaceship, unlike the
cramped Mercury cabin, will
be roomy enough for its crew
members to move about, and
comfortable and secure
enough for them to work in
their shirt sleeves instead of
a pressure suit.
The crew will fly it, once
it has been boosted into space,
just as aircraft crews fly mod
ern jet transports. Shepard's
"Freedom 7" and "Vostok"
could be maneuvered to a
small extent. But, except for
braking rockets to bring
them out of orbit, the Amer
ican and Soviet craft have
no control over speed and
trajectory.
Apollo crews, however,
will be able to change speed
and trajectory at will, and
they will be able to land the
craft under its own power at
places of their own choosing.
Possible in 1964
': The first launching of an
' unmanned design model of
the AdoIIo spaceship may
come in 1964 when the first
version of the big Saturn
space vehicle is expected to
. be ready for regular assign
ments. The year -1965 may see
three Apollo spacemen soar
ing in orbit around the earth
for as long as three weeks
This craft, an orbiting labor-
' atory, would be the fore.
. runner of future space plat-
forms.
These orbiting platforms in
turn will serve as space-
. ships rendezvous, spaceship
assembly, spaceship crew ex-
' change, and supply stations
for manned missions to the
moon or planets.
Before men make lunar
landings, however, they will
be put in orbit around the
- moon and brought back to
earth. This could be done in
1967 if a second generation
Saturn is ready, as expected,
bv then.
Not even the second gener
ation Saturn will be able to
lift enough weight to land

ed that nuclear engines are
necessary for long range
space exploration.
The first lunar landing by
an American conceivably
could come in 1967. But 1969,
1970, or 1971 appears much
more probable.
Flights to the planets, tak
ing more than a year for the
round trip, cannot be sched
uled until the engineers see
how the moon trips turn out.
Planetary flights by man

"planned but not programmed."

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE.
Dellenback Comes From Salem
With Confidence in
The greatest thing at stake
in the Oregon legislature was
not any particular bills, but
"our whole system of govern
ment," S'.Ae Rep. John Del
lenback, Medford, declared
Wednesday in a talk to Med
ford Kiwanis club at its noon
luncheon.
Dellenback, Republican, who
was a freshman in the 1961
session, said he came away
from the legislature with "a
renewed confidence in our
system of government as long
as we remain alive and do not
sell it out ..."
Our government, Dellen
back brought out, "is built
fundamentally on the fact that
all of us have a voice in it."
The people have a responsibil
ity, he asserted, adding that a
government is no better than
the people it sends to the leg
islature. Government Goes On
"So long as that system is
maintained," said the legisla
tor, "our government will go
on."
He brought up the question
of whether the government in
this country can stand up
against rival governmental
systems which avert delays
and efficiency. But, he warn
ed that as soon as short cuts
are taken, "the whole basic
fundamental of our govern
ment will go out."
Dellenback declared that a
battle of systems of govern
ment is being fought on
world-wide basis.
The representative spent
much of the talk discussing
how the legislature works and
the implications of the way it
works. He pointed out that
election of the speaker is one
of the most crucial actions of
the house because the speaker
names the committees and
their chairman.
Saying that he was discuss
ing the matter analytically,
rather than critically, Dellen
back pointed out that control
of every committee is in the
hands of the majority party.
Every bill goes to committee
before it goes to the floor of
the house.
The legislator further ex
plained that, if a committee
decides not to send a bill to
the floor and tables it, it is to
all intents dead, because a
two-third vote of the house is
needed to bring the bill out.
He mentioned that such a ma
jority is hard to get.
Concerning the 1961 ses
sion, Dellenback said that
there were not many things
before the house of represent
atives on which there were
decisions which were really
partisan politics. "Basically,"
he stated, "the legislature
tries to make decisions as well
as the system will permit
without primary regard to
partisan politics." He said,
too, that a good feature of the
legislature is that.it has peo
ple in it from all walks of life.
Seats in the house are
mixed up, not separated as to
party, Dellenback mentioned.
He said this is good because
there is no voting by physical
blocks.
Legislators generally lean
on people they know in com
mittees to determine how to
vote on a bill. He pointed,
however, to the influence
from pressure from a legisla
tor's home county or district.
Really, the only area over
which a legislature is limited
is in those things which take
money, Dellenback said. He
expressed the opinion that
surpluses are bad, adding that
"the only thing worse is a
deficit." He deplored the at
titude toward surpluses of
"how we can spend it" rather
than .how can taxes be cut
down.
The representative describ
o)W
System
ed the ways and means com
mittee, which is concerned
with bills of fiscal nature, as
a hard working group which
did its best.
Dellenback spoke of prob
lems of a biennially meeting
legislature in trying to figure
what state budget needs will
be 21 years in advance. He
said that the handwriting is
on the wall for annual ses
sions. Annual meetings are
only a question of time be
cause of their need if the stale
is to be operated soundly, he
stated.

Plane Hunt Dropped
Coquille - (UPD - An inten

touched off by reports that
two parachutes were seen in
the sky in the Reedsport area
north of here, was called off

Two Coast Guard planes

Portland Air Base searched
the area but found nothing.
Ground parties investigated
what appeared to be a para
chute south of Reedsport but
it turned out to be only a

A Coast Guard spokesman
said the reports evidently
were "not valid." He said no

Minuteman Test
Ends in Failure
Cape Canaveral, Fla. - (UPO -
The second test flight of Amer
ica s new "instant ICBM," the
Minuteman, ended in failure
today when the rocket was
blown up after veering off
course.
The rocket blasted into the
sky in an attempt to plant a
dummy warhead on a South
Atlantic target more than 4,
000 miles away.
But slightly more than a
minutes later, the second
flight model of the Air Force's
missile began weaving snake
like patterns through the sky.
A range safety officer, dele
gated with the job of keeping
errant rockets from landing
on populated land areas, trip
ped two switches that blew the
33-ton Minuteman to bits.
The wreckage plunged into
the Atlantic ocean several
hundred miles southeast of
this missile testing center.
