“ ... I can take their sly glances and smiles—it gets to me
when they whistle.”
The report states that “a
bright future of substantial
growth and sound economy is an
ticipated for Bryan-College Sta
tion, based on the trend toward
decentralization of industry, the
availability of technically trained
personnel from their educational
institutions and the natural re
sources of the area.”

WASHINGTON — The Soviet
Union’s man-in-space feat could
bring nearer the time when hy
drogen bombing by satellite is
possible.
The landing of the man-carry
ing vehicle in what Moscow re
fers to as a “prearranged area”
is the most recent of a series of
demonstrations by both the
U.S.S.R. and the United States
that objects can be ejected from
satellites and brought to earth at
designated spots.
If this can be done with a five-
ton vehicle carrying a man, and
with smaller vehicles carrying
animals and instruments, why
can’t it be done with a thermo
nuclear bomb ?
Some U.S. military scientists
say the use of satellites for de
livering nuclear weapons on earth
targets is possible. Soviet weap
oneers would be expected to have
the same interest in that line of
thought.
Considerable improvement in
precision would be needed. An
“area” into which a capsule is
directed actually can be any
where in several hundred square
miles. Something nearer pin
point aim would be needed even
for the massive blast of a, hydro
gen bomb.
But the fact remains that both j
the Soviet Union and the United
States now have mastered the
technique of bringing down pack
ages from satellites on command.

of orbiting vehicles, carrying
dogs and other life.
The U.S. Air Force Discovery
satellite series has produced four
successful recoveries of capsules,
ejected from satellites into pre
arranged areas. One was recov
ered from the sea, three have
been snatched from the air as
they descended by parachute aft
er entering the earth’s atmos
phere. '
The four recoveries were made
from 16 satellites which went in
to orbit. On seven of these oc
casions, capsules were ejected
successfully Horn satellites, but
three of them failed to land near

recovery.
Like other details concerning
Soviet programs, the scoreboard
for successes and failures of its
recovery attempts is not known.
There have been rumors that at
least one Soviet man-in-space at

By contrast, U.S. efforts in
both missile weapons and space
vehicle projects have been report

JERUSALEM — The prose
cutor of Adolf Eichmann pro
claimed Israel’s right to try him
as the killer of millions of Jews,
declaring Wednesday: “For this
crime there is no atonement,
there is no pardon and there can
be no forgetting.”
Pointing his finger at the bald,
former colonel in Hitler’s Gesta
po, Atty. Gen. Gideon Hausner
cried: ,“It is only possible to be
lieve and to hope that the sons
will not carry on the crimes of
their fathers and will not be
called upon to answer for their
crimes. But for him who created
these crimes, there is no atone
ment.”
Eichmann scribbled a note on
a pad in the prisoner’s dock, a
cage of bullet-proof glass. Then,
he sat cupping his chin in his
right hand.
His only display of animation
came before the trial’s second
day began. He exchanged a few
words with his German defense
counsel, Robert Servatius,
through a private microphone.
Servatius is challenging Isra
el’s right to try Eichmann—for
mer chief of the Jewish affairs
section of the Nazi Gestapo—for
“crimes against the Jewish peo
ple and crimes against humani
ty.”
The German lawyer claims that
Israeli war crimes law is invalid
because it was passed in 1950
after the crime was committed.
He says Eichmann was only an
instrument of his Nazi masters
dragged into the crime and, in
any event, it was committed in
Europe and not Israel.
“If we do not try Eichmann,”
Hausner retorted in his argument
before the three-judge court, “it
is quite possible he will not be
tried at all, and a crime without
precedent would not be punished.

Servatius said he could do it it

half an hour.
“Men who are poisonous, who
are assassins, may be extermi
nated wherever and whenever
they are caught.”
Thus Hausner defended this
country’s right to try the man its
agents hunted for 15 years as the
master architect behind Nazi
Germany’s extermination of an
estimated six million Jews.
