Die in Collision
Of Two Planes
BRIDGEPORT, Tex. (JP) —
Two military planes collided in
the air over this North Texas
town yesterday and Air Force
reports showed 18 servicemen
died when the planes crashed into
the ground.
No one survived.
The crash of a C124 Globemaster
took 15 lives. A Cl 19 cai-go plane
crashed on a fa?-m and killed the
three aboard. The Cl24 had a
crew of 10 and picked up five pas
sengers in San Antonio, Kelly Air
Force Base reported.
The Globemaster’s home was Hill
Air Force Base, near Salt Lake
City, Utah. The C-119 was sta
tioned at Carswell Air Force Base,
at Fort Worth, 45 miles southeast
of here.
The Globemaster burned fiercely.
Pools of molten metal glimmered
around the wreckage.
Small shattered pieces of wreck
age lay over a wide area.
Some parachutes remained neat
ly folded. Other chutes burst open
and lent a garish touch to the
scene. But apparently none aboard
the C-124 bailed out.
A large section of the craft, bad
ly torn, lay about 150 yards from
the main C-124 wreckage.
Bill Carlton, Bridgeport, drove
along a road shortly after 4 p.m.
when the air collision occurred.
“It looked like great big flakes
of sheet iron falling,” he said.
The Defense Department in
Washington said the C-124 was en-
route from Kelly Air Force Base,
San Antonio, Tex., to Tinker Air
Force Base, Oklahoma City.
The C-119 was en route from
Sheppard Air Force Base, Wichita
Falls, to Carswell AFB.

Votes to Buy
U. S. Matadors
BONN, (TP) — The Defense
Committee of the West Ger
man Parliament voted yester
day to buy 24 U.S. Matador
missiles—capable of nuclear
warfare.
The action came amid a mount
ing threat of a general strike
against atomic weapons by the
nation’s six million trade union
ists.
The Trade Union Federation was
to meet today to decide whether
to call out the workers in a politi
cal strike against the Bundestag’s
decision two days ago to permit
West Germany to accept atomic
arms if offered by Germany’s al
lies.
A deputy of the opposition So
cialist party in a statement said
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer
would not stop until he had a
German - produced intercontinental
missile with a hydrogen warhead.
Socialist Chairman Erich Ollen-
hauer called on the Parliament to
vote Adenauer out of power in or
der to prevent “a national catas
trophe.”
His party introduced a bill call
ing for a national referendum on
the atomic arms issue. Adenauer’s
majority was certain to turn down
this proposal.
Ike Sees Tragedy
If Trade Not f ixed
WASHINGTON—(A 1 )—President
Eisenhower said last night Amer
ica faces “deadly peril” from com
munism abroad and possible loss
of jobs at home unless Congress
extends the administration’s for
eign trade program.
The President sounded those cau
tionary notes in a speech prepar
ed for a dinner to rally bipartisan
support for the program.
Eisenhower, whose talk was car
ried nationwide on television and
radio, hammered hard at both the
international and domestic as
pects of foreign trade. He has
asked Congress for a five-year ex
tension of the Reciprocal Trade
Act and for authority to cut tariffs
gradually up to 25 per cent under
present levels.
“We should make everyone
aware,” the President said, “of
the deadly peril impending if—
through blindness—America and
the free world are robbed of ade
quate economic defense against
Communist penetration.”

U.S. Rockets to Get
Good Look at Moon
WASHINGTON^—CP)—The Unit
ed States is going to send rocket
scouts to take a close look at the
moon.
Orders for the “lunar probes”
by unmanned space vehicles were
issued yesterday by President Ei
senhower and Seci’etary of Defense
Neil McEh’oy.
The decision to press forward,
with what only a little while ago
would have seemed a fantastic proj
ect, followed by one day the Presi
dent’s publication of an official
“Introduction to Outer Space.”
This was an outline by his science
advisory committee of the reasons
for space exploration and its pos
sibilities and problems.
In this first long step, the gov
ernment authorized the Air Force
and Army to proceed with pro
grams for launching four and per
haps five unmanned vehicles to
explore “in the vicinity of the
moon.” The Navy is directed to
begin preparing equipment for the
vehicles which will send back an
‘account of what is on the moon—
pi’obably including the still un
known far side.
An initial allocation of about
eight million dollars was ordered
to start work on the over-all pro
gram.
Neither the White House nor
Defense Department would spec
ulate on when the first moon shoot
would be made. Some important
parts of the equipment needed al
ready exist.
