Mitchell spoke in a taped inter view on NBC's "Today" television program. A fact finding board named early in such a dispute, he said, could make the parties slate the isjucs. "It seems to me this kind of public display or public knowl edge would so a long way to making the parlies sharpen their issues and get down to business, which in the steel strike was very dilficult to do." Mitchell said he would promote discussion of such changes in the Taft-Hartley law within the ad ministration. Asked if the Presi dent went along with these ideas, Mitchell said: "Well, we haven't formulated specific recommendations but the President has indicated to me that he would like the whole area studied." Mitchell added, "I still think lhat collective bargaining will work in this country. I still think that the government should not intervene in terms of dictating wages and conditions by compul sory arbitration because that in- evitahly leads to dictation of prices, and government domina lion of our economics."

We Give Green Stamps LUMBER WRITE OR E?5 TncCoUum 2030 So. 6th HOME MART TU 2-5885 WASHINGTON (AP) The two key men in the Army's space rocket effort at Huntsvillc, Ala., say they thoroughly approve President Eisenhower's decision to turn it over to the civilian space agency. Maj. Gen. John B. Medaris said he was "both pleased and re lieved" by Eisenhower's decision Wednesday. He said it "will stabi lize the situation and the mission of the great development organi zation I have had the honor to command since its activation Feb. 1, 1!)36." And Wernher von Braun, Ger man-born rocket wizard who heads the Huntsville team of 2,300 scientists and technicians, said: "The president has decided that it is in the best interest of the coun try that our work be continued within the framework of NASA i the National Aeronautics and Space Administration'. Since NASA's establishment a year ago. we have worked closely and har moniously with that line organiza tion. "Wo look forward to a continua tion of our clforts with NASA in a progressive space program which will make this nation sec ond to none." What NASA will take over is the Saturn program for develop ment of a gigantic rocket complex taller than the Statute of Liberty. It will develop l'j million pounds i of thrust, far more than anything the Soviets now are known to have. This is enough to fling a 15 lo 20-ton satellite into orbit or land a truck on the moon. The Saturn program had struck hard times under the Army's auspices. Medaris. who is retiring Jan. 31 as chief of the Army Ordnance Missile Command, was dissatisfied. Administration critics pointed to spectacular Soviet space ventures and said in cflect, what are we doing about it? This was the situation Eisen hower had to resolve Wednesday when he called his top military and scientific advisers to the While House just bclore leaving (or a golf vacation at Augusta, Ga.

' The military's concentration on war missiles had tended to leave Saturn out in left field. The pro gram's funds were cut so more defense money could be put into ballistic missiles. The Army will continue to con trol some of the military rocket development at Huntsville. Eisenhower, in an announce ment from Augusta, concluded that the transfer of the Army Bal listic Missile Agency to NASA 'can best serve the national in terest." Secretary of the Army Wilber M. Brucker said he "wholeheart edly supports the decision." NASA Administrator T. Keith Glennan said he thought it was best for the country. Eisenhower's act brought criti cism, however, from one of the most persistent critics at the space program Sen. Stuart Sym ington D-.Io. Symington said the Huntsville team started to disband with the resignation of Medaris and "may be further adversely affected by this latest transfer decision." Medaris reasserted in Detroit Wednesday night that his decision to retire was made last August 'when there were no proposals on the table." He reiterated that his action was not a protest over what was happening to Saturn. Von Braun, too, scotched any- idea that he would follow Medaris' lead. Eisenhower's announcement said the Army team had demon strated intense dedication and high technical proficiency under the Army. The transfer, he said, "provides new opportunity for them to contribute their special capabilities directly to the ex panding civilian space program." The development of the Saturn "super booster," Eisenhower said, will be under the immediate di rection of this team. "I have directed that this pro gram be vigorously pressed for ward," the President said. The transfer plan will be pre sented to Congress in January and will go into effect 60 days later unless cither House or Senate vetoes it. ternational payments would in crease in proportion. Secretary of the Treasury Robert B. Ander son and other top officials are concerned about this deficit be cause it could lead to a heavier outflow of gold. After the conservative victory, stock prices in London soared to new highs. However, reports from Britain indicated that Amer ican investors sold to take prof its during the rise. A reserve board technician said profit-taking would be the natural reaction to the price spurt. He said any significant influx of American money into the London stocks might be postponed by in vestors hopeful of lower prices later. He said it will take several months to determine whether the British elections will have a ma jor influence on American invest ment abroad.

The questionnaires concern evac uation of schools in time of emer gencyif such a time occurs and are an attempt to determine what transportation would be available for evacuation. "We certainly don't feel that a catastrophy is imminent," Searles said, "but we do wish cooperation so we can organize a civilian de fense plan." The questionnaires include a form to be returned after par ents' signatures, regarding cars and drivers in each family who would be available for school evac uation. Searles said similar question naires would be distributed to stu dents in city schools in the very near future.
