Age Of Space Shores Stock Market NEW YORK (AP) Business, ulill shrugging off the effects nf recession,, braced if self for the coming of the age of space. '. As the Army hurled a rocket to ward the moon, hankers, invest ors and just plain speculators look a closer look at industry's prog ress in the guided missiles field. Shares of companies making rocket components and missir fuels performed brilliantly in an otherwise listless stock market. Slock sales totaled J7.5B5.4R2 Airman Jailed For Contempt TILLAMOOK, Ore. (AP) - A Tacnma, Wash., airman David C. Meyers was sentenced Friday to six months in the HllamooK County jail for contempt of court. "Since I have been here I have been lied In, threatened and ev erything else." he said from the witness stand in the second de- gree murder trial of 21-year-old Lelani Batke. This resulted in the contempt of court citation against Meyers, stationed at nearby Mt. llebo ra dar station. Circuit Court .ludge Jack Roha nan said time Meyers had spent in jail since being picked up early in September as a material wit ness in the trial would count to ward the six monlhs. Miss Balke is charged with kill ing a new-born hahy after giving birth to the child. Miss Balke is not expected to testify in her own defense nor is her mother, de scribed as too ill by a physician. One woman in the courtroom fainted Friday when Dr. Mitchell Heincmann, a Portland patholo gist, said the infant was slabbed 17 times with a sharp pointed instrument and strangled with a pillow case. .KIR WANTED TUCSON, Ariz.

Bond sales had a par value ol $31,890,000 in the latest week against $27,709,000 for the previous week and $28,532,400 in the corre sponding week last year. Interest in missiles was height ened by reports later disputed at t he Pentagon that Russia had successfully flown an atomic-pow ered aircraft. Preoccupation with space age problems was manifest at the an nual meeting in Bal Harbour, Fla., of I he Investment Bankers Assn. These are the men who help raise the billions of dollars of capital required for such projects as su perhighways, schools, factories, power plants, atomic-powered sub marines, space ships, satellites and .rockets. They act as middle men in Hie sale of new issues of bond and slock. Lt. Gen. James M. Gaven (Ret), the Army's former rocket chief, I old the bankers: "I honestly be lieve we will enter space more rapidly as our whole economy benelils Irnm the technological ad vances in our space programs. We are beginning, just beginning, lo utilize benefits from, missiles in civilian commerce. While develop ing the missile industry we have created new materials and new technology." The latest balch of business in dicators showed further evidence of general economic recovery this week, albeit at considerable less than rocket speed. While auto dealers reported a pickup in sales, Ford and Chev rolet started a real old-fashioned production race. Chevy turned out 43.500 cars its highest out put for any week this year; Ford Mnlor Co. s r ord division rolled out 33.360. Although Chrysler Corn, was hampered by strikes, the indus try s total new car production zoomed to a new 1958 high of nearly 147,000.

They seemed a symbol of the great unhappiness of Sir Winston's latter years. We are the only ones that re main, hir Winston must have mused. All Ihe rest are gone, and even I no longer lead. Roosevelt, Stalin, king George, and Pope Pius XII all the other great leaders of the Churchill era passed on. Only Churchill and De Gaulle remained. Sir Winston turns 84 Sunday. There will be no public celebra tion, no ovations, not even a com memorative message to the world from Sir Winston. In his old age, Churchill carefully guards his pri vacy and his thoughts. Some former associates say it is because he regrets his age that he mourns because the acci dent of time so narrowly deprived him of a chance to challenge to day's global problems. He was too young to lead in World War I, although he desper ately tried. And if he was at his prime in World War II. he was too old lo take the helm at the dawn of the nuclear age. Instead, he lives out his final days in peace. A warhorse sent to pasture, he edits his great history of the English-speaking world, basks in the riviera sun, proudly plies his wartime hobby of paint ing, surveys his modest string of race horses and muses, silently, for hours. Showdown In Berlin Not Expected Soon WASHINGTON (AP) The Soviet proposal lo convert West Berlin into a free city look U.S. officials by surprise today. However, the first reaction seemed to be that u puts off a showdown over Berlin lor six months. The free city concept also ap peared initially here to be a Soviet cover, possibly with considerable appeal over the world, tor the hasic Moscow aim of pressuring the United States, Britain, and France into giving up their oc cupation status and withdrawing their military forces from West Berlin. The proposal, therefore, seemed likely to be rejected by (he West ern powers in the light of their own frequent assertions that they would not abandon the city. The State Department had no immediate comment on the plan It was certain to get prompt and careful attention from officials here despite the Thanksgiving Day holiday in the government How quickly it would get a formal response was another question. Full consultation with the West ern Allies was assured before a reply goes to Moscow. The United States, Britain, France, and West Germany have been conferring on how they would meet an expected move by Moscow to give the East Germans control over Allied traf fic to West Berlin. This had been foreseen as the trigger which would set off a full-blown new Berlin crisis. Tensions had been building up in the West in expecla lions of the event. The Soviet call for six months of negoliations on the free city idea relieved that pressure for the time being at least. The United States and ils Allies have repeatedly declared in the last two weeks as indeed over the past 13 years that they will accept no change in their status of occupying and protecting pow ers in West Berlin unless and un til the whole problem of the divi sion of Germany is solved by re unification. However, the Allies appear bad !y split over how tough to get in countering the Soviet threat to their position in Berlin. MORE FOR DEFENSE NEW DELHI (UPI) India must spend more for defense he- cause of the outside military aid received by neighboring Pakistan, Prime Minister .lawaharial Neh- istan unfriendly. During a discus sion of military expenditures in parliament, he said: "Personally I am convinced there is little chance of a conflict with Pakis tan, but my government cannot take risks."

He occasionally visits his beloved House of Commons, but only to listen. Bent by his years and nearly deaf, Churchill is far from the pugnacious figure whose thump ing words in the same chamber 18 years ago lashed a nation into surviving the Battle of Britain. Churchill, in fact, withdraws more and more into balmy seclu sion at an estate on the French riviera. For all his love of home land he now spends more time in prance than here although he chose to be at his country estate outside London forv the birthday. On the Azure coast, Churchill is pretty active octogenarian. He goes yachting with millionaire Ar istotle Onassis, zestfully dines in renowned restaurants and savors his legendary cigars afterward. The Riviera is good for Church ill, who has oeen plagued all his life by a susceptibility- to chest diseases. The big white-walled vil la of his European publisher, Em ery Reeves, near the village of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, is virtu ally his home now. On Sept. 12 he celebrated the Golden Anniversary of his story book marriage. And on Novcmher 6 came the most stirring public appearance in the three years since Church- Obedient Dog Sits For 14 Hours WHERSETAD, England (API- Somebody told Spot, Britain's most obedient dog, to "sit" and he did for 14 hours. Officials of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals were investigating the case. A cyclist reported the dog was sitting beside the road at 6 p.m. Thursday, and was still sitting there when he rode to work Fri day morning. An RSPCA inspector had to slip a collar around the dog's neck to gel mm 10 move. Said the inspector: "I could tell from the dog's reluctance to move that it was obeying a command I am treating this as a case of a dog abandoned. ill's retirement. Sir Winston travelled to Paris to see General de Gaulle. It was the first reunion since V-E day ended their stormy wartime partnership. De Gaulle awarded Churchill the Rank of Companion in the Order ot the Liberation. 'At the moment of the greatest danger confronting Europe, said the long belated citation, '(Churchill) inspired and directed the resistance- of his country and contributed by that in a decisive manner to save the liberty of the French world." Island Shelling Off Once Again TAIPEf (AP) The Chinese Communists retrained from shell ing the Quemoy Islands on an even-numbered day. Saturday's silence followed very light action against the outpost! on Friday, an odd-numbered day. The Nationalist Defense Ministry said the islands were the target or only 279 rounds, the lightest at tack since Nov. 1.
