The error is apparently one of the worst in the "almost impeccable" history of the Bu reau of Engraving and Printing. The heck of it is that they can't be sold at high prices to collectors as were the stamps that got bungled a while back. Shucks! Let's talk about outer space. As this is written, Russian Cos monaut Bykovsky is in his fifth day out there, He has traveled somewhat more than 1.8O0.O00 miles. His dimpled space com rade has traveled about half that far. The moon's average distance from the earth is 238.000 miles. (At its perigee, or nearst point, it is 221.000 miles off. At Its apogee,' or farthest point, it is 253,000 miles away.) At its average distance, round trip to the moon would be about 476,000 miles, ho By sky has traveled the rough .equiva lent of four round trips to the moon. Which is to say, he is the world's lop traveler from the standpoint of distance. There was a time when a round-the-world traveler was SOME BODY. Those days are gone where the woodbine twineth. What's a mere 25,000 miles in this age? Question: How did the moon get started? G. H. Darwin, son of Charles Robert Darwin, founder of the theory of evolution, theorized that the moon was once a part of the earth. According to him, the earth at that time was in a semi- liquid or plastic condition. As it spun around, it passed first the shape of a pear, then intoj the shape of an hourglass and: fir,allv intn ihe (orm of a dumb- bell, with unequal weights at the' end. .it.. ,iu..hv, on-,. .hJica. meeting without union prosi two weights of the durnbbclUep- .

UPI Wirephoto West's lumbermen Ask Foreign Freighter Use WASHINGTON UPH - Pacific Northwest lumbermen renewed demands Tuesday to be allowed to use foreign ships to carry lum ber to U.S. East Coast ports. A group headed by Joseph Mc Cracken. executive vice president of the Western Forest Industries Association, Portland, Ore., opened a campaign to get con gressional support for amendment of the Jones Act.

"1 do not think it is wise be cause in all probability it would necessitate a special session of the legislature, he said. "I think the recent 1-il-day ses sion was enough. The legislature which limits intercoastal trade to U.S. vessels, has put them at a serious disadvantage in competing with Canadian lumber producers. By using foreign ships, they said, Canadians can ship lumber cheaper from British Columbia to U.S. ports. McCracken, who termed the act a "reverse tariff." said it. in ef fect, gave the Canadian lumber industry a "guaranteed subsidy." The Jones Act was passed orig inally to guarantee maintenance of a U.S. merchant fleet for de fense purposes, he said. McCracken said the immediate objective of the group was exten sion of a one-year exemption the lumber industry got last year to allow use of foreign vessels to ship lumber to Puerto Rico. "The Puerto Rican exemption only scratches the surface," Mc Cracken said, adding that the Jones Act had made it possible lion board feet of tlic U.S. mar ket on the East Coast since 10. "There used to be as many as 140 ships in the intcrcoastal lum ber trade," he said. "Now there are 16." "There used to be some 30 lum ber mills in Portland. Ore., alone. Now tliere are three." Stanley Bisliopric of the Dant and Itu.-seil Lumber Co., Port land, told newsmen that if the cost of shipping lumber from U.S West Coast ports could be reduced, to the Canadian figure of 122 per thousand board feet H would re- i suit in lower lumber prices on the iEasI Coast. 1 rIi n"iNaiisf Select New Pope jehnal Mindszcnty. who has been in uie v;.o. h-mii"" -m since tlx?

Hatfield added: "If they couldn't draft an acceptable pack age in 141 days, you can't expect more of the legislature in a spec ial session. A preliminary Detition to refer the lax measure was filed with tiie secretary of state Monday by J. Francyl Howard, editor and publisher of weekly newspapers at Albany and Corvallis. On the question oj a new con stitution, Hatfield termed the planned initiative movement "an excellent idea." '"I regret that the people are forced to take this action because of the Senate's failure to refer the new constitution to the people for a vote," he said. During the recent legislative session, the proposed new state constitution won approval in the House, but failed by three votes of receiving the two-thirds ma jority it needed in the Senate. Macmillan's Position Still Shaky LONDON I UPI I Prime Min ister Harold Macmillan sought to work out an agreement vith the opposition Labor party today on further investigation Into the Pro fumo affair that threatens to force his resignation. Even as Macmillan prepared for today's meeting with Labor party leader Harold Wilson, out spoken Conservatives were dis cussing possible successors to the 09-year-old prime minister. Wilson was expected to press rr an invficl ioal inO mmmilM with broad powers to requisition any document or subpoena any witness in a searching prolic of the scandal centered on resigned War Minister John Profumo. Conservatives feared such a committee might subject their party to (urther embarrassment. Macmillan had first offered the more discreet investigation of a privy councillor's inquiry, to be followed by a tribunal if neces sary. Inlormed observers said it was only a matter of time before the Conservatives force Macmillan tojpossibly to certify the space rcc make way for a younger man. lords were on hand to meet the The government crisis erupted when Profumo, 48, admitted he lied in Uie House of Commons about his relationship with Chris tine Keeler, a 21-year-old party girl.

Russian Space Team Returns MOSCOW lUPli-The world's, first man and woman space team returned to earth safely today. rirst to land was Valcntina Tercshkova, lirst woman to soar through space. She was followed more than two hours later by cosmonaut Valery K. Bykovsky, who set new space and distacce records with a flight of nearly five days around the earth. The official Soviet news agency Tass announced the lundim?. Miss Tereslikova. a 2ti-yea-old bachelor girl, spent about three days orbiting the earth in a flight that was longer than that of al four American astronauts w h ol have been rocketed into orbit.

Tass said Vostok VI, which car ried Valentina into orbit last Sun- day, landed "as planned" on the 4!lth orbit. Jt said the spaceship came down 385 miles northeast of Karaganda.

Congress Given Strong Package On WASHINGTON (UPI) Congress an "imperative" package of strong civil rights legislation today and appealed for a halt in racial dem onstrations while the program is under consideration. He submitted a series of proposals designed to end discrimination in jobs, voting, schools and access to restaurants, hotels and other accommodations. And he urged Congress i' to stay in session as long as necessary to enact the pro gram, warning that the al ternative "will be con- tinued, if not increased, ra cial strife." 'Enactment ... at this session of the Congress however long It may take and however trouble some it may be is imperative," he declared in a 5,500-word spe cial message to the House and Senate. Common Sense Approach The President said his legisla tive proposals were based on For an analysis of t h e Presidents proposals see Page 4-A.
