Advance Units of 'Big
Lift' Land in Germany
Record Number of
Troops Due To Be
Moved This Week
FT. HOOD, Tex. (UPI) -The
advance guard of "Operation
Big Lift," the biggest trans
ocean air movement of ground
troops ever tried, arrived in Ger
many Saturday to prepare the
way for 14,500 men who will be
flown there from Ft. Hood in a
72-hour period this week.
The vanguard included 440
men of the 2nd Armored divi
sion, flown to Germany from
Bergstrom Air Force Base, near
Austin Tex., in seven jet trans
ports. They will set up commu
nications, prepare headquarters
and arrange mess facilities for
troops who will start pouring in
Tuesday.
In the midst of last-minute
preparations for the airlift, the
commander of the operation and
the North American Air Defense
Command denied a report in a
German newspaper that long
range, high altitude Russian
planes had flown over Texas to
spy on the operation.
"The whole story is absurd.
No Russian plane has flown over
Texas or any other part of thv
United States," A NOKAD (
spokesman said. '
Col. G. M. McNulty, Airlift
Control Force Commander at '
Ft. Hood said "Russian planes
do not fly over flie United 1
States." He said that even if
they could, they would not be i
able to spy out anything about
Big Lift.
The 2nd Armored Division,
headquartered at Ft. Hood, will
supply most of the troops for
"Big Lift." A total of 16.000 men
is involved. Of these, 14.500 will
actually fly to Germany.

of the Treasury C.

had found strong support for
President Kennedy's SI 1.1 bil
lion tax cut bill in sessions here
with the business council which
includes top leaders of the in
dustrial world.
Dillon'urged the politically in
fluential council to throw its
weight behind the measure. He
told newsmen later:
"I think there is very real
support for the bill."

be passed. But the big question

Rocky Points Out
His Views Differ
From Goldwater's
Governor Opposes
Withdrawal from UN
HANOVER. N. H. (UPI) -New
York Gov. Nelson A. Rock
efeller wound up his two-day
barnstorming trip through New
Hampshire Saturday by making
it clear his views were far dif
ferent than those of Sen. Barry
Goldwater.
The governor said it would be
a "disaster" to withdraw from
the United Nations, a move he
said Goldwater advocated, and
also attacked the Arizona Re
publican on such topics as the
World Bank and foreign aid.
It was clear, however, that
the two-day trip was more than
just for speechmaking. Rocke
feller was plainly trying to de
termine New Hampshire's reac
tion to him and his wife, Happy,
with a view to entering the
state's first in the nation pri
mary. First Comment
Where Rockefeller went, his
wife was right with him. "Say
hello to Hap," was almost al
ways the governor's first com
ment as he handshook his way
about the state.
Many have said the Rockefel
ler divorce and remarriage will
hurt him as a presidential can
didate. The governor is appar
ently preparing to decide this
quickly.
He said he would make his
decision by the end of this
month, and, if he is a candidate,
he will enter the primary here.
He acknowledged he was t h e
underdog.
Rockefeller was greeted by a
crowd of 2,000 when he arrived
at Hanover from New London,
N. H., where he spoke at Colby
Junior college.
He told the students that ear
lier this year Goldwater propos
ed United States withdrawal
from the United Nations.
"Although the United Nations
hasn't fulfilled all of our expec
tations," . Rockefeller said, "I
am flatly opposed to even a sug
gestion of withdrawal. This
would be a disaster for the fu
ture of freedom."

Korth Denies Being
Asked to Resign as
Secretary
WASHINGTON (UPI) Navy
Secretary Fred Korth firmly
denied Saturday that he was
asked to resign from the gov
ernment, but acknowledged thai
he used official Navy stationary
to write personal friends about
private business affairs.
Korlh spoke out in reply to
a scries of reports that his de
parture from his post was re
quested by President Kennedy.
He said in a lengthy state
ment: "I resigned solely for the long
standing personal reasons I ex
pressed (in his letter of resigna
tion) lo the President."
At the same time, he released
a file of more than 200 letters
and documents which wore re
ceived or sent by him and which
have been or might be interpret
ed by his critics as indiscreet.
When questioned about a pos
sible ambiguity in Korth's writ
ten statement, an aide confer
red with the secretary, then said
Korth could be quoted as saying
flatly: "I was not asked to re
sign by anybody."
Personal Request
The documents included a per
sonal request Korth sent to Gen.
Lauris Norstad, former Com
mander - in - chief for Europe
and now international president
of the Owens - Corning Fiber
glass corp., asking him to use
the bank of a friend at Waxaha
chic, Texas.
They also included numerous
letters from Korth to officials

Second Satellite

ica's second Sentry satellite
Saturday joined its twin "Watch-
dog" moonlet in a record - high
orbit around the earth to patrol
against possible sneak nuclear
testing in upait;.
The achievement was viewed
by scientists as a virtual fool
proof safeguard to see that the
nuclear test ban treaty signed
recently between the United
Slates and Russia is not violated
in space.
At 3:40 a.m. PDT (8:40 a.m.

Tax Views
On Oct. 15, Oregon s voters overwhelmingly voted, "no"
on a proposed income tax increase measure.
"The people have spoken, but it is not quite clear to me
what they have spoken about."
This quotation, by Dr. Branford Millar, president of Port
land State College, sums up the dilemma now facing legisla
tors who will convene in a special session Nov. 11 to act on
Oregon's financial crisis.
There probably were many different reasons for casting
"no" votes, but no one knows the majority feeling.

JFK Notes Cold
War With Soviets
Has Eased Some
Speech Tells Views
On Current Issues
BOSTON (UPI) - President
Kennedy said Saturday in a
major foreign policy address the
nation still lives "in the shadow
of war," even though the cold
war with the Soviets has eased
somewhat.
The President's address at ths
University of Maine in Orono
was virtually a state-of-the-na
tion address as far as the fore
ign situation is concerned.
It explained simply the Pres
ident's views in many areas
where he has been under attack,
primarily the Cuban situation,
the wheat deal with Russia and
the proposed joint Lunar expe
dition. After receiving an honorary
doctorate of laws from the Uni
versity, the President inspected
by plane the proposed Passama
quoddy tidal power project in
northern Maine, then flew here
for a SlOO-a-plate dinner billed
as all New England salute to
the President.
In remarks prepared for the
dinner, Kennedy said the princi
pal issues before Congress in
cluded his proposed tax reduc
tion program, funds lor foreign
aid and the alliance for prog
ress, the lunar prohc, a strong
civil rights bill and youth em
ployment. He said this Congress could
be one n( the greatest in modern
times if administration forces
continue to fight for their pro
gram. . During his stay In Boston, the
President also attended half of
the Harvard - Columbia football
game, visited the grave of his
infant son, Patrick Bouvier, for
a few minutes in private and
then stopped for a soda in a
shop managed by an old friend.
