England -WFD- Dr. George Watson told the Brit ish Medical Association Con ference Tuesday that children should catch some childhood diseases at an early age and get them over and done with. Watson predicted that some day doctors may offer "mumps for sale" and parents will rush in to make their purchases. Washington - (UPII - Sen. Karl E. Mundt (R-S.D.) said in Senate testimony made pub lic Tuesday that he got the im pression that Navy Secretary Fred Korth had a "predisposi tion toward General Dynam ics" Corp. before the TFX fighter plane contract was awarded. Korth emphatically denied the Inference. He said he re sented Mundt's characteriza tion of him as "Mr. General Dynamics" and "Mr. Ft. Worth." The exchanges were part of transcripts of closed - door testimony taken by the Sen ate Permanent Investigations subcommittee Monday in the disputed multi billion dollar TFX contract case. Errors Or Favoritism The panel is investigating whether errors or favoritism figured In the decision last November by Pentagon civ ilian chiefs to give the con tract to General Dynamics, de spite military recommenda. tions favoring a' rival Boeing Co. bid. A fresh controversy also arose over a chart used by Korth to show that the Gen real Dynamics plane was fast er by more than 300 miles per hour and more maneuverable at high altitude than the Boe ing design. Chairman John L. McClel- lan (D-Ark.) Introduced a let ter from the Bureau of Naval Weapons dated July 9 saying the charts were "somewhat controversial and before they are used, the risks involved should be appreciated." The letter also said that a progress report submitted by Boeing Oct. 19 of last year made corrections. By Boeing adding 331 pounds of weight, the speed advantage of Dy namics disappeared. Awar of Inaccuracy "There was no question but that this option would have been selected," the letter said. "The major advantage of Gen eral Dynamics in this area (speed and altitude) then dis appears." McCIeilan sharply question ed why Korth presented the chart to the panel showing a "distorted" view when he was aware it was not accurate, Korth said the Oct. 19 progress report of Boeing had never been evaluated. He con tended it involved a "major redesign" of the plane and was submitted after the com petition closed. Sanfiam Billboard Decision Expected Salem JUPb- A decision on whether billboards will be banned on the North Santiam Highway is expected in Au gust.

A petition from the Mill City Women's Club would keep billboards from the high way between the junction and the Pacific Highway east of Salem. If the Scenic Area Commis sion approves the petition the only billboards allowed would be those within city limits and on roadside business premises. About 40 billboards now standing would have to be re moved within seven years. NO PROOF OF DEATH Santa Monica, Calif.
