(AP) -'The S240,000-income tax evasion trial of former Teamsters Union Presi dent Dave Beck Sr. was recessed for the weekend Friday when op posing attorneys could not agree on the admissibility of a raft of check stubs. v The attorneys were ordered by U.S. Dist. Court Judge George H. Boldt lo present briefs supporting their contentions. Judge Boldt said he would rule Monday on the arguments. The government sought to in troduce the check stubs as part of its charge that Beck's expen ditures were out of line with the income he declared on his 1950-53 tax returns. Defense attorneys contended the stuns were inadmissible since they were not part of official busi ness records. The stubs, from the checking ac count of Nathan Shefferman, Chi cago labor relations consultant, were brought to court by Miss Florence Ouska, Shefferman's bookkeeper. She testified the checks, some of which covered purchases she had made for Beck, were part of a paper jungle she maintained for Shefferman. The government had called Miss Ouska to the stand to explain each check stub. The defense objections cut the session short since no oth- government witnesses were available in court. Dozens of government witness es remain to testify but they have been given appointment dates and told not to appear in court before the staled time.

This is the view of Maj. Gen. B. A. Schrievcr, chief of the Air Force ballistic missile division. He indicated, in fact, that the United States and Russia may athieve workable intercontinental ballistic missiles at about the same time. But he told the National Geo graphic Society Friday that Amer ica can t allord to relax.

Reds Ahead range' or under 1,000-mile type of ballistic missile. "In the area of the intermedi ate range, or 1.500-mile ballistic missile, the situation is less clear. In this respect, we should keep in mind that our own 1. 500-mile IRB.Ms. the Thor and the Jupiter, have been quite successful in their recent tests," he added. In St. Louis, another Pentagon missile specialist said Friday night that this country will have intermediate range missiles ready for combat use very soon. Brig. Gen. Austin W. Bells. military assistant to the director of guided missiles, didn t elabor ale on the time element. However, he told a meeting of manufacturers: Ballistic missiles very soon to he operational will be able to de stroy enemy targets 1.500 miles away less than half an hour after the decision is made to attack This is far beyond the capability of any manned aircraft now oper ational or anywhere in sight."
