Senate Likely To Concur in Defense Appropriations Bill
THURSDAY, JUNE 17. 1U3
Washington ?. d'Pli The
Senate appears likely to con
cur in all but a few details to
the $47 billion defense appro
priations bill passed by the
House.
By a 410-1 vote Wednesday,
the House approved the bill
which accounts for almost
half of the entire $98 8 bil
lion federal budget for the
fiscal year beginning Mon
day. Senate sources said the
bill, trimmed by about $1.9
billion from the President's
request, was almost in line
with the general views ex
pressed by the Senate mili
tary appropriations subcommittee.
The subcommittee already
is at work on the Senate ver
sion. But Senate action is not
expected to come until after
the fiscal year begins. Final
passage of the bill after the
start of the year is not un
common, and Congress al
ready has given the Defense
Department authority to
Nuclear Test Ban Said Up To West
Moscow - (I'M - Russia indi
cated today that agreement at
the Moscow nuclear - test
talks will depend entirely on
what the United States and
Britain propose.
The Communist organ Prav
da indicated the Kremlin has
nothing new to offer,
Pravda said also the Soviet
Union considers a net of "au
tomatic control stations" suf
ficient to police a ban on
underground tests.
The question whether Mos
cow has withdrawn its offer
of two to three annual on-site
inspections was left open.
"Now it is up to the West
and only the West," declared
Pravda commentator, Yuri
Zhukov, in discussing the ne
gotiations scheduled to begin
here in mid-July.
spend at current levels until
the new budget is approved.
One of the changes the
Senate is likely to make in
the House version is in funds
.for the controversial RS70
strike plane. The Senate
might well act to speed work
on the plane, although the
House went along with De
fense Secretary Robert S. Mc
Namara in all but writing off
the 2,000-mile-an-hour bomb
er. All U.S. bomber production
stopped last year, and Defense
Department critics have ques
tioned abandoning the man
ned bomber to rely solely on
missiles.
The bill's manager. Rep.
George H. Mahon (D-Tex.)
told the House, however, that
other possible supersonic
bombers were under study.
He said Congress probably
would be asked for money
next year to build one final
type manned strategic air
craft for addition to the bomb
er fleet now dominated by
the obsolescent B52.
The lone dissenter to House
passage was Rep. Thomas B.
Curtis (R-Mo.) who said he
had no real objection to the
bill but cast his "no" vote to
call attention to "the serious
ness of deficit financing."
"We haven't got the
money," he said.

Nebr.
Mr. Miller was walking
down a street in Omaha
when he was stricken, Mrs.
Miller was informed. He had

years in the Nebraska city,
where he was in business.

become lucrative business
because of the tremendous
number ' of checks tn the
mail," says Montafue.
One recent case involved 35
persons, most of them related
by blood or marriage, who
traveled between Oklahoma
City and California stealing
and cashing checks deposited
in mail boxes.
Their most expert penman
was a 13-year-old girl whose
photographic memory enabled
her to take one look at a sig
nature and then reproduce it
so accurately that post office
experts had difficulty iden
tifying it as a forger. Gang
members cashed more than
400 stolen checks totaling
$10,000 before they were ar
rested.

Moscow Circus
School Trains
Performers
Moscow (UPD Thirty sev
en years ago the Soviet Un
ion established a school of
circus arts and now a boy
who acta the fool In class
with enough ability has a
chance of graduating as a
first class clown.
That's what Oleg Popov,
one of the nation's world fa
mous clowns, did 10 years
ago and now he Is one of
the most honored graduates
of the Moscow Circus school.
The fame of this modest
looking, yellow brick school
has spread far and wide and
foreigners - mostly from Asia
and Africa - have been com
ing to Moscow to learn cas
cading, tumbling, Juggling
and walking on a tight rope.
It's serious work. And the
school, which has a student
body of 400 and a faculty of
58, has to turn away many
would-be performers.
Purpose
Our purpose It to turn
out cadres (personnel) tor the
circus and the variety thea
ter," said Director Alexander
Voloshin, using a typically
Soviet turn of phrase.
"As a matter of tact, since
the school was established in
1828 it has turned out soma
2,000 performers, about 63 to
70 per cent of the nation s
circus and variety artists.
Some people said a circus
wouldn't succeed in those
years, but it did."
The school now accepts stu
dents of all ages - from tots
to adults. The children come
for a seven-year course, and
the adults from three to four
years. Many of the children
are sons and daughters of per
formers, and all have to study
reading and writing and 'rith
matic as well as the circus
ring.
'I decided I want to be an
animal trainer when I grow
up, said one little boy with.
a crew-cut and a smile, "be
cause I liked the trainers I
saw when I went to the circus."
A 10-year-old girl in pig
tails and a severe brown
school uniform smiled sheep
ishly and said "I Just got in
terested in being an aerial
acrobat by looking at the tel
evision."
Rafrnher Course
AJax Bukana, 42, a per
former from Ghana, is taking
a one-year refresher course at
the request of Ghana Presi
dent Kwame Nkrumah before
becoming head of his nation
al circus.
The two -year -old school
building which now houses
the school is built around a
circular arena and a rectangu
lar gymnasium. It cost $555,-
000 to build.
On a typical day the circu
lar ring Is always busy with
students turning circles tn the
air, balancing on somebody's
shoulders, being thrown Into
the air in difficult contortions,
Or standing upside down on
the end of someone s out
stretched arm.
The school's graduates can
look forward to some securi
ty in their careers.
Voloshin said they get jobs
In variety groups or in the
30-odd circuses throughout the
Soviet union.
