Both pilots, then. On the other hand conditions in ;the center of the linking cable will appear to be utterly weight I less. Here, we will build a hollow ball of wire grating material. It is this ball which serves as i the mooring nation for other space ships which bring tools and j machine parts wi'h them and from these in turn we build, in side the ball, the actual mechan isms which will make the flights among the heav enly bodies. The process will be carried out lip this way because our kinds of I rockets, with their chemical pro Ipcllants. are really not verv weU adapted to that kind of flight be- ranee their .u slowly. Instead, we will build "electric space ships'' inside the ball These electric space ships, built inside the ball, will be run on electricity produced with .the aid of solar energy or atomic pile ;ind which will be used to accel-! erale them.

Another point which arose in connection with the Torre case If whether the identity of news sources involves press freedom as established by the First Amend ment to the U.S. Constitution. The newspaper trade publication "Ed itor and Publisher'' took note of this in an editorial Feb. 14 It said in part "It is contended by some that freedom of the press is involved in this issue. Perhaps it is. People, including newspaper men, can still write what they please within certain legally de fined limitations There is no" priori restraint on publication. But R seems to us there is a conflict! when people 'reporters' are pun ished for not revealing who told 'hem something even though the information as reported is correct j "No other profession is expected! to put into print for others to read ' everything it can learn that is fit!
