TIESI1AY. JULY 15. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE FIVE Chief Picks UN As Tool To Solve Mideast Crisis WASHINGTON (API-President Eisenhower has chosen one of four possible legal instrument for U.S. moves in the newly wrought-up Middle East the United Nations. The other three include the President's Middle East resolution approved by (he Senate in Feb ruary 1957. the Baghdad Part and the 11150 U.S.-British-Frenvh declaration. It should have come as no sur prise that he chose the U.N. The Eisenhower administration FBI Issues Theft Report WASHINGTON 'AP)-FBI Di rector J. Edgar Hoover said to day that more bank robberies oc curred during the last 12 months than in any other similar period since accurate records have been kept. In a 1958 fiscal report to Attv Gen. Rogers, Hoover said that for the year ending June .10, there were 631 violations of the federal bank robbery statute. "Not since the gangster era of the 1930s, when in 1932 there were 61)6 violations against banks, has there been such a tremendqus wave of this type of crime," the report said. "These 631 violations occurring during the past 12 months mclud ed 373 robberies, 198 burglaries and 60 larcenies, a total of 188 more violations of this statute than in the preceding 12 months During January 1958 alone 66 vio lations occurred, an all-time hi; monthly figure. Solutions in bank robbery violations corresponding ly increased. Convictions in various kinds of FBI cases in fiscal 1958 rose to 11.457, or 96.8 per cent of the cases brought to trial. The report showed FBI recov ery of 16,504 stolen motor vehi cles compared with 15,215 recov eries the year before. The 1958 figure was a new high, and Hoc- ver said the 5.157 convictions of car thieves was also a record. ol Senator Asks Air Bill Okay WASHINGTON (AP Sen. A. Mike Monroney iDOklai said to day he is hopeful the House will accept a bill aimed at making it safer to travel the nations air ways. Monroney is chief sponsor the legislation, which the Sena! passed by voice vote late yester dav. The House Commerce Com mittee has already held, hearing: on the bill. , .The measure would set up independent federal agency head ed by a powerful administrator who could make and enforce safe ty rules for commercial, private and military planes. He would have full authority to control the use of air space by all planes and to develop and oper ate a common system of air nav igation facilities. The legislation was spurred by a series of plane collisions. The Senate made one change to meet objections by military au thorities. As originally written, the dis puted provision would have re quired advance approval by the administrator of the location of anv new military air base or mis sile site. ! But this was changed to provide that the Defense Department notify the aviation agency head of the proposed location of such fa cilities. If the administrator and armed forces disagreed about a site, the issue could be taken to the President. as laid down the pattern of its 1 1 e m p t s to cope with world crises: first the Inited Nations. exhaustively, and then other means if necessary. In almost every foreign crisis to date in the 5'i years of the ad ministration, it has usually found that the U.N. was as far as it would go. In this case the military coup which ousted pro-West King Fai sal's regime in Iraq the Presi dent turned to the U.N. Security Council. This figured because, un der the U..N. Charter, the Council is charged with the responsibility of preserving the peace of the orld. And it was convenient, because the Council already had before it the problem of revolt-torn Lcban It was not necessary to brave a possible Soviet veto by trying to get Iraq inscribed as a new agenda item. All that was neces ary was to treat the new Mid dle East disturbance as a broad ening of the area's difficulties al ready under U.N. scrutiny. Officials have not ruled out pos sible other U.S. action, outside the Security Council. If this were de cided upon, the United States could cite Article 51 of the U.N Charter as legal authority. This section of the charter rec ognizes the right of member na tions to act militarily in self-de fense. Under the President's Middle East resolution. U.S. troops could be sent only to counter outright Communist-controlled military as gression. There is no evidence as yet that such might be in the off ing in Iraq. The U.S. commitment under the Baghdad Pact is even more cloud ed. The United States is not a Baghdad Pact member although it belongs to virtually all its com mittees, including the -Military Committee. Even if the United States were Baghdad Pact member, mili tary action would not be auto matic in any case. All the pact s action clause promises is cooper- tion." It says the member states work out among themselves just what this cooperation would be. The 1950 tripartite declaration originally promised that the united States, Britain and France would see that the Middle East's military balance was maintained with neither Arabs nor Israelis getting too much. But it has been practically a dead letter since Britain and France, virtually working behind the back of the United States, invaded . the Suez Canal area in the fall of 1956. Despite these and other pledges, like the Formosa resolution and the NATO and SEATO pacts, no U.S. troops have been sent abroad in anger since the 1950 Korean War. Rather, the United States has re lied on U.N. resolutions, military and economic aid, threats of mas of world opinion. ...

Calif. lUPIl A top re search scientist predicts man will travel into space and return to earth within five years at the most, thanks to successful re search with five-slage rockets. This prediction came Monday from Dr. Alfred J. Eggers. one of the top air research scientists at Ames Laboratory here. "The basic technology is all worked out." he said. "Now the ensineering of the ship itself re mains. No more than five years, certainlv." Disclosure that this country has been successfully experimenting with five-stage rockets, using ex isting "hardware, came at an open house sponsored by the Na tional Advisory committee lor Aeronautics at the Ames Labora lorv. The NACA said it has been fir ing hundreds of the rockets at speeds reaching 10.650 miles an hour for the past two years. It costs "only a few thousand aoi- lars" to fire one of the 55-foot rockets. ! The rockets use the motor of the Army's Honest John ballistic missile for the first stage. The econd and third stages use anti aircraft Nike-Ajaxes. The fourth tage is a Recruit. The fifth stage s a Thiokol T-55 rocket which .arries the instruments. "I believe we are the first to use such an arrangement," said Hugh L. Dryden, director of the NACA. The firings have been carried out from the NACA's pilotless re search aircraft station at Wallops' Island, Va. The purpose of the firings is to gain experience in ballistics missiles research. The rockets are capable of reaching altitudes of "several hundreds of miles." researchers said. Just how high is a secret. Engineers have also succeeded in blowing the nose portion of the rockets back ir.io the earth's at mosphere to study the problem of geling space missiles back to earth without letting air friction burn them up. Using model-size wind tunnels capable of generating winds of 16.000 miles an hour, researchers have experimented with heat-resistant metal alloys and other critical items needed in space flight. Research with wind tunnels and other equipment at Ames Labora tory has also enabled scientists to state flatly that a 2.000-mile-an-hour commercial plane can be built now. Such a plane, they said, -could take off from New York at 6 p.m. and land in San Francisco at 4:30 p.m. a time of 90 minutes for a transcontinental flight.

(API GenJ Rafael' Trujillo .Ir.'s already gleaming yacht sported a fresh coat of paint today. Also a 24 hour lookout. Crewmen slapped the paint on in a hurry yesterday to cover up the words, "Zsa Zsa Slept Here," which someone lettered in red paint on the sleek hull of the lux urious craft. The sign painler apparently worked from a small boat that slipped in unnoticed. First inkling Trujillo had of the prank was when a boatload of news pholog raphers drew alongside to take pictures. In Hollywood, actress Zsa Zsa Gabor. lassuming, as did everyone else that the sign referred to her, said she had never slept aboard the yacht. By United .
