ARMY APPEAL
Missile Killer
Step-up Sought
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Secretary
of the Army Elvis J. Stahr Jr. ap
pealed to senators Thursday to
back rapid development of the
Nike-Zeus missile killer.
Apparently disagreeing some
what with President Kennedy’s de
cision to limit funds for the Nike-
Zeus program, Stahr told the Sen
ate Armed Services Committee: “I
submit that we must also continue
urgently to seek an effective anti
missile defense. We therefore de
sire to push rapidly forward with
the further development of Nike-
Zeus, the only anti-ballistic missile
weapons system under active de
velopment in this country.”
In their revised defense budget
of nearly $44 billion, Kennedy and
Secretary of Defense Robert S.
McNamara turned down Army
appeals for funds to speed up the
antimissile weapon.
Support for Kennedy’s stand
came from Chairman Richard B.
Russell, D-Ga., who said he
backed the administration’s posi
tion that the Nike-Zeus program
should be limited to the develop
ment stage until more tests are
completed.
Russell, whose committee is
hearing the views of top military
leaders at closed-door sessions,
said he also may support the ad
ministration’s proposal to cut back
development of the B70 Air Force
bomber to an experimental re
search basis.

GOP Fears Laos Coalition
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A Democrat
cried “political guerrilla warfare,”
but Republican leaders continued
to warn Thursday against a coali
tion government in Laos.
The GOP leaders, Sen. Everett
M. Dirksen of Illinois and Rep.
Charles A. Halleck of Indiana,
made their indirect attacks on
U. S. policy in Lao at their weekly
news conference. They said a
coalition government eventually
would become a Communist giov-
ernment.
Dirksen and Halleck stressed
they did not want to embarrass
President Kennedy while he was
negotiating with Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan of Britain.
Then, however, Dirksen and
Halleck went on to announce they
were distressed by roving Ambas
sador W. Averill Harriman’s state
ment that Laos would have to
have a coalition government to
become neutral.
Earlier, Sen. Hubert H. Hum
phrey, D.-Minn., had called on Re
publicans to stop what he termed
their “political guerrilla warfare”
against Kennedy’s efforts to solve
the crisis in the Southeast Asian
kingdom.
“The critical international situ
ation in Laos should not be ex
ploited for partisan advantage,”
Humphrey said in an interview.
“Political settlement will require
a coalition government. But coali
tion does not mean Communist
inclusion or domination,” he said.
“To define coalition as meaning
including Communist inclusion is
engaging in emotional misrepre
sentation. We should seek to
strengthen the hands of our nego
tiators rather than try to tie
them.”
But Dirksen, Senate Republican
leader, and Halleck, House Re
publican leaders, renewed a GOP
warning against such a coalition
government.
They added, however, they had
agreed not to make a written
statement. Dirksen said there
would be no such statement “so
there will be no embarrassment

Thirty-seven students will at

sored by the Department of Range
and Forestry of A&M.
The group will study ranching
practices typical to the areas near
San Antonio, Uvalde and Kerrville,
says Dr. D. L. Huss, assistant pro
fessor of Range and Forestry.
The theme of the trip, says Dr.
Huss, is “Rangeland Restoration

of any kind” during the Kennedy-
Macmillan talks.
“We are Americans first and
Republicans second,” Halleck said,
“and when the security of the
country is threatened there is no
question where we stand.”
But Halleck said he was dis
turbed by Harriman’s weekend
statement on Laos.
At a fund-raising dinner in Vir
ginia Wednesday night, Republican
National Chairman Thurston B.
Morton said Kennedy should re
pudiate Harriman’s statement.
“Everyone knows that forcing
Laos to accept a coalition govern
ment would be the same as de
livering it into the hands of the
enemy,” Morton said.
Sen. Wayne Morse, D.-Ore., told
the Senate Thursday, “There is
no will to fight in Laos.” He said
much of the U. S. military aid
sent there had been wasted com
pletely.
“We’ve got to see that the Com
munist advance doesn’t continue in
Laos,” Morse said, but he added
the American people should be told
of “our past mistaken policies in
Laos.”
“We have much to answer for,
he continued, citing what he called
corruption and inefficiency in tb r
handling of the foreign aid pi
gram in Laos.
