Hints That Its Origin May Never Be Traced CAPE KENNEDY, Fla. (AP) — Several weeks may be required to pinpoint the cause of the flash fire that killed the Apollo 1 astronauts. There is a possibility the problem may never be traced. There were hints along these lines today as a board of inquiry met again to probe the deaths of the three astronauts on the day of their burials. kkk Killed in a fire that raced through their space ship during a launch-pad test last Friday were Air Force Lt. Cols. Virgil I. Grissom and Edward H. White II and Navy Lt. Cmdr. Roger B. Chaffee. The 15-man board of inquiry, headed by Dr. Floyd Thompson of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Langley (Va.) Research Center, has wrapped its investigation in secrecy. Astronauts' Last Words Told in NY Times' Story NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Times said today that the last words heard from the Uiree Apollo 1 astronauts who were killed last Friday were: “We’re on fire! Get us out of here!” The Times story gave this account: The astronauts’ last moments, clocked at 12 seconds, were described by an engineer who spent most of the day listening to tape recordings of the fatal test and who hes^ reports from men on the launching pad at the time of the tragedy.' ★ k k Commander Chaffee and the other crewmen, Lt, Cols.

PHILIP HART Public Housing Loan Approved Units for Elderly Are Planning Fund Target A second preliminary loan for public housing in Pontiac has been approved by the federal government, U S. Sen. Philip A. Hart announced yesterday. The loan — ^,250 — is for preliminary planning for 175 more units of public housii^ desired for tae dderty.

The turnkey method is generally considered a ftader p r o-cess. 1 Snow, Sleet, Rain in Store for Area Hazardous driving warnings have been issued by the weatherman who predicts increasing cloudiness, .occasional snow and sleet for the Pontiac area late today.

KellOw, an engineer, and Oakland County Health officials Oscar Boyea and Robert Coleman offered statements th^ughout tae evening in support'of the operation. Pontiac Attorney Wallace D. McLay, representing residents of several subdivisions from Maceday and Lotus lakes, provided considerable testimony in oppositon to the prr^ed solid waste disposal. He called on Dr. William R.

(AP) -A mysterious fire flashed through a space cabin simulator today at the School of Aerospace Medicine, killing one airman and critically burning a second. A Brooks Air Forte Base spokesman said the fire broke out under conditimis similar to those which killed the three Apollo I astronauts at Cape Kenney Friday. The spokesman said the two airmen were doing routine maintenance work in an altitude chamber rigged for an experiment to study the heinotology of rabbits. Both men were taken to the Brooke Army Medical Center, where one died. Their identities were not immediately disclosed, and the spokesman said the cause of the blaze was under investigation. undertaking is the most economical means to dispose of trash, costing each person about 50 cents to $1 per year.

McLean emi^asized that the operation must comply with Act 87 under terms of the license granted last month by the State Health Department. McLean added that his clients are agreeable to comply with any reasonable requests of the township, in addition to complying with Act 87. However, it was pointed out that the Township Board thus far hasn’t prepared any ground rules for the proposed land-fill. One of the major issues is the extensiveness of the operation. Shouldn it be restricted to Waterford Township residents? Said McLay: “Are we going to have any more fishing and swimming in these lakes? That is the issue.” Contending that the land-fill would eventually result in pollution, McLay said, “You will wind up with dead lakes ih due course.” Two aviation officials men-(Continued on Page A-2, Col. 6) Commerce Dept. Will Outline Proposals at Afternoon Conference WASHINGTON — The Commerce Department publishes today long-awaited safety standards for 1968 model cars that reportedly have been toned down from original prbposals that brought industry complaints. The standards, together with safety programs to be developed by the states with federal help, are designed to reduce the 5(),000-a-year death toll on the nation’s highways. Although officials declined to say anything about specific standards, one source said, “They won’t be too severe.” They must be publisl^ by midnight. ★ ★ ★ An official said any softening of the original 23 proposals announced in early December is not a retreat.

Ford Wants President to Cut Budget WASHINGTON (AP) -House Republican leader Gerald Fwd wants President Johnson to submit a revised budget. He says “the House Appropriations Committee could force him to do so” by refusing to hold hearings on Ae $135-billion spending program, In a Roanoke, Va., spewh Monday night, Ford also called for a lower debt limit. He said “the President could cut several billions out of the fiscal 1968 budget if he would set a lower ceiling on it and instruct his budget director to squeeze spending under that roof.” it ★ Meanwhile, one of Ford’s GGP colleagues attacked an administration attempt to get the national debt ceiling raised by $7 billion to $337 billion. Rep. John W. Byrnes, R-Wis., told Secretary of the Treasury Henry H. Fowler he wants participation sales included in the debt figures. Byrnes’ demand came as Fowler presented his case for an increase in the debt limit before the House Ways and Means Committee. SALE PLANNED The administration plans the sale of $3.9 billion of participation interests in pools of govem-ment-held loans. Such sales are listed in the budget as “negative expendltiirwsP* tirf are'used'to reduce the spending side of the budget. Fowler and Budget Director Charles L. Schtiltze insisted the sales of interest in government agency loans don't constitute a debt k the government, which has only a contingent liability to make them good if federal agencies fail to. -A- ir it Schultze said if the participa bon sales were included in the national debt, all other contingent liabilities also should be included. This would raise the national debt some $105 billion he said, FAMILY BURNED OUT - Mr. and Mrs. Earl Hitsman and their nine children, ranging in age from 4 to 17 are homeless since a fire early yesterday destroyed their Vienna Twp. home near Flint.

The students were reclassified — to lA after they participated in an antiwar demonstration in Ann Arbor, Mich., site of the university. JURISDICTION EXCEEDED The appeals court held the draft boards exceeded their jurisdiction and acted in violation of the First Amendment rights of free speech. “Here, it is the free expression of views of critical national importance that is jeopardized,’ wrote Judge Harold R. Medina in the opinion concurred in by Judges Henry J. Friendly and J Joseph Smith. “On such topics perhaps more than any other it is imperative that the public debate be full and that each segment of our society be permitted freely to express its views,” the court said. The students involved, Peter Wolff, 29, of New Yffl-k City and Richard Shortt, 22, of Fresh Meadows, Queens, took part in a sit-in Oct. 15, 1965, outside a draft board in Ann Arbor. City Streets Replowed For safety’s sake, city driveways are apt to be plowed in again, despite back-breaking efforts by residents to clear them. City Manager Joseph A. Warren said today that city crews are in the process of replowing streets to move the snow farther back from the roadway. Warren cited three reasons for the replowing. These are: • The necessity to opening streets as nearly as possible to their regular width for traffic flow. /■’ • Moving the snow so that in the event of a thaw the water can flow into catch basins. ★ ★ ★ • Unless the snow is moved back, there is no place to put new snow, notably,, a second heavy snowfall. Warren emphasized that the replowing was necessary.

Two of the victims of the eruptive fire that engulfed the interior of the craft were space trailblazers. Virgil I. Grissom played a heroic role in both Mercury and Gemini programs while Edward H.

Nature Throws Her Winter Punch at Midwest Described by the U.S. Weather Bureau as “one of the biggest snowstorms of the century,” the 100-mile-wide wave of snow that created varying degrees of havoc in the Midwest is now history. Setting a new snowfall record for Chicago, the storm hit with spotty severity in Michigan. Kalamazoo was the worst affected, though many Lower Michigan cities suffered crippling effects. ★ ★ ★ The Pontiac area got its lumps a-pienty during the weather tantrum that set iii Thursday and blew itself out 36 hours later. Although not equaling in magnitude the February blast of two years ago, it brought discomfort, inconvenience and disruption of many services to the community. On Friday, schools were closed and many places of business remained dark. Despite the extreme handicaps under which it labored, public transportation did an admirable job of transporting not only regular patrons but those whose cars were immobilized by clogged streets or fimc-tional failure. Once more, the City’s department of public works measured up^ to the emergency thrust upon it and worked effectively and without letup* to clear streets for traffic and the spieedy resumption of normal travel.

Marvels of Yesterday, Commonplaces Today We live in a fantastic age. Everyone agrees with that, but few realize just how fantastic it actually is—or why. To many, the dramatic breakthrough in space- exploration overshadows all else. But, this has been something like the top of an iceberg. Those who believe In our system of free enterprise will find inspiring the Edison Electric Institute’s 17th annual report. I|i a brief 40 pages, it tells the story pf electric power—one of the miracles of the age that has made other miracles possible. ★ ★ ★ The reader learns how electricity has helped to revolutionize agricultural production. It performs some 400 tasks on the farm which were formerly accomplished by manual labor. Ninety-eight per cent of occupied farm dwellings have electric service, and while farmers comprise only 6.9 per cent of the national population, they provide an unrivalled abundance of food. i The U.S. farmer produces enough to supply the food and fiber jequire-ments of 34 other Americans. The Russian fanner by contrast jsupplies the needs o^about four of his countrymen. Until very recently, 'as ttime is measured, the energies of mankind were devoted primarily to tlue struggle to raise enough food to eat. This is still true in most areas of tbe globe —with the exception of the United States. The base of the Americaai age of greatness lies broad and deep —rooted in the fertile ground of individual freedom, oppoi;tunity and incentive. Busy Time in Confused World By JAMES MARLOW AP News Analysl WASfflNGTON-It’s a busy time full of go-go-go. Mixed up, too. The United States and Russia spent billions, and used up years to build missiles to use on each other, j just in case. Now, the Russians are busy with an antimissile system which, could cost them I another $25 bil-l lion. MARLOW This country, debating about it, wishes the Soviets wouldn’t throw money around like that because, if the United States goes all-ont on an antimissile kick, the bUl may be |4» bUUon. The Russians, according to reports,, have an X ray ar-rangemient that copld blow up oncoming missiles while this country, so reports say, knows how to make a missile which could destroy several cities hundreds of miles apart. This involves a special technique called MIRV, which is short for Multiple-Individual-ly-Targetable-Reentry-Vehicle. WHAT’S INSIDE? That may be too much for most people to understand but most can understand that relations between Russia and Red China are closer to breaking than ever before although practically nobody outside China seems to understand what is going on inside China. The Chinese are calling the Russian leaders pigs and, in effect, 'reactionaries while the Russians are calling the Chinese, in effect, nuts. Neither is saying the embarrassing thing: That both are suffering from acute nationalism, which communism was supposed to eliminate, or that nationalism may last longer than communism, which is bound to go to pieces if nationalism lasts long enough. * * ★ ; Elsewhere, the “doves” and the “hawks” ai>e swooping and picking and pecking at one another over Vietnam while the Arabs, who were supposed to be united against Israel, are banging at one another, as witness tbe weekend bombing by Egypt of Saudi Arabia. BUDGET NEWS If this weren’t bad enough, last week’s budget by President Johnson was. This budget, which he presented to Congress as the expense bill for the next fiscal year, starting July 1, got caught up in a pair of systems which may make sense if you’re an i economist but not if you’re not. Johnson had predicted earlier his budget would be $135 billion which, if looked at the old system way, com^ out sure enough at $13S bilhm. ^ut under the new system, called the liational income account budget, it comes out at $169 billion. ★ A ★ .

Can’t snnething be done about this fw the betterment of Pwitiac? What about it, Mr. Hudson? CLEAN-UP WASHINGTON - The administration in power in Washington soon may have its own television network of about 380 stations across the country to carry on a so-called “educational’’ campaign, but it could convey* the people LAWRENCE tHh government of the United States enters with a controlling power, such a project is bound to become political. Under the new scheme, there presumably would be no competition between the government-supported stations and the private networks, but there would, of course, be competition for the attention of audiences. Even if there were substantial numbers of pqpple who would like the n^w programs, the question arises whether the government of the United States should set up its own medium to disseminate news and opinion on political subjects. (CtpyrtgM, 1M7, Publlthtn Nfwtpiptr Syndlcat*) Bob Considine Says: Two Readers Comment on Delivery of Mail Has the post office abandoned the century-old boast about delivering the mail through tidal waves, blizzards, droqghts, electrical storms and aerial attacks?

My street was plowed early Friday morning and so were most of the sidewalks. No mail. How about that, Mr. Donaldson? Susie Q. ' to whatever political propaganda it wishes. This is the first tone the federal government would be obtaining, in return for financial support, a voice in what information a section of the press gives to the people. The theory is that, because stations do not sell advertising time, they are “nonconunerical” and are, therefwe, entoled to govern* mental help. While it is tme that the big television networks at present aim at mass audiences with news and entertainment of the widest possible inferest, this does not mean that the American people are being deprived of any information by all the other media of expression which use the printed or spoken word. The plan to be considered by Congress at the present session calls for a federal outlay of many millions of dollars to build and equip so-called “noncommerical” stations. The initial appropriations that are going to be requested are estimated at $68 million a year at first, rising* to $91 million a year in another decade. ’This would be authorized through the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, which, of course, could issue its own guidelines. In addition, a manufacturers’ excise tax, starting at 2 per cent and increasing to 5 per cent on TV sets bought by the public, also would be expected to help finance the opera* tion. The Carnegie Commission on Educational Television has recommended the project, which would supply programs on cultural and educational subjects, as well as on new and pubUc affairs. Th e r e is no reason, of course, why private foundations should not by themselves furnish all the support for this kind of venture.

Ful-bright can be a persuasive thinker and he demonstrates it repeatedly in his book, “The Arrogance of Power.” , * Histbry/Biay prove he was right in his c e n t r a I theme: ’That the U. S. should never have gone into Vietnam in the first place CONSIDINE and could even now pull out completely and without dishonor. But his slip shows repeatedly as he presents his case. ^or example, thfe senator’s assessment of Saigon, as a nest of brothels for American GI’s made it embarrassingly apparent that he had no personal experience in Vietnam. ★ ★ * His belief that Premier Ky is a cocky little rooster with no public support can be contradicted by anyone who has seen the man in action. BAD ADVICE In demanding that Ky’s group get together with the Vietcong it is the identical advice FDR gave to Chiang Kai-shek in respect to Mao Tse-tung. It is the same advice Churchill gave to Stanislaw Mikolajczyk with regard to cdoperating with Stalin’s Lublin government in Poland. Ky has dedicated his life to fighting the domestic and imported Communists who want control of his country. The senator would pull the rug from under him, as the Kennedy administration demolish^ Diem. ★ ★ ★ In “The Arrogance of Power,” the senator sees Diem as a violator of the Geneva Accords of 1954, which handed over the nordiem part of Vietnam to Communist rule. VIOLATED AGAINST On the contrary. Diem was violated against. The first freely eluted chief execntfve in the entire history of that land was hit by CommiiQist-iBspired and equipped Vietcong, by the followers trf the mad monk Thich Tri C^iang, by the Nortii Vietnamese army and, indirectly, by his own relatives. He was a good tough man-' darin. In his last interview, he said that' by the end of 1964 he would no longer need the 17,000 U.S. military ad- visers who then represented our total commitment in manpower. He’d fight South Vietnam’s own battles thereafter,' he swore. BEUEVED BY OFFICIALS We believed him. What is more important, so did Defense Secretary Robert McNamara and Gen. Maxwell Taylor, and they sale so publicly. Diem was upended a few days later by a combination of CIA manipulations, |his own stubborn refusal to accept Henry Cabot Lodge’s offer of asylum (sdiich Thich Tri Quang was by then enjoying), and a double-cross by the junta we chose to sncceed him. He was murdered while in its custody. We don’t have 17,000 men there any more. Including the Navy, we have close to half a million. And it has been a long time since the end of 1964. According to a previous letter, the cure for cancer and other disease is death. Scrnie cure. Apparently the writer has never witnessed the heartbreaking agony of a terminal can<;er victim and his family. Readers must be struck by his omniscience tor he says that he knows of people who died of cancer and have gone to heaven. ★ ★ ★ A clergyman made the statement that mUlions of people are in hell as a result of alcohol. When chaUenged to give me the name of one person he knew to be in hell, his aiMwer was cUence. I suspect that if I challenged the writer of the letter to give me the name of one person factually known to be in heaven, he too would have to remain silent. AGNOS'nCA Question and Answer When every house in three blocks but one has the snow plowed from the front walk can the City compel that one diehard to become a “good neighbor.” ANNOYED REPLY Yes. Residents are responsible for clearing snow from their sidewalks within a reasonable time. If they are unable to do it themselves they are expected to have someone do it for them. However, under present emergency conditions the City is giving residents benefit of the doubt because it has been difficult to get enough people to do the work. However, if within the next day or two snow has not been removed and you ivish to make a complaint call Assistant City Manager Reineck at 333-7131. In Washington: Romney Crams on World Issues > By BRUCE BIOSSAT LANSING, Mich. (NEA) -It has come to no public notice, but early in January Michigan’s Gov. George Rchti-ney had an intensive, day-1 o n g meeting at h i s Bloom-field Hills home with Har-vard University’s famed international af-fairs expert, jProf. Henry A. |Kissinger. The meeting, BIOSSAT which by de sign was more a Kissinger monologue than a discussion, evidently covered virtually the entire range of foreign affairs. Naturally enough, there was substantial treatment of the difficult Vietnam situation. The big day with Kissingelr is simply the highli|^ of the governor’s present bniy study course in tii« fweip affairs field. Soirees here say he has been inferring with oAer “kooiriedgeable persons” on world matters as he gears op for the 1968 RepubUcan prMideittal race. Kissinger often has been mentioned as the sort of expert Romnby might acquire as a “foreign policy advis«r.” Actually, it has already been decided not to take on an “in-house” scholar who would, in effect, be at the governor’s elbow at all times. Romney has been persuaded that what he needs is an able “foreign policy administrator,” a man with a good grasp of the field and excellent contacts among scholars across the country. Such a man would tap suitable experts as needed to help prepare posiUon papers and other documoits on Vietnam, Latin America, etc. Walter DeVries, enrrentty the chief researcher on Romney Associates’ campaign staff and long a top Rnnney policy adviser, serves to substantially the same way in the domestic field. It is known that, among moderates sympathetic to the Rtxnney cause, some afe counselling urgency in the choice not .only of a foreign policy liaison man but of other professionals as well, * As A A quest is under way for a national campaign press secretary and for smne key political tacticians. Prominent ameag tiiese are Dr. Gaylord Paridason, former Califerala GOP chairmaa, and F. Clifton White, the real malaitay ef Bairy GoMwater’s strategy forces in liN. s ■ ' ' '■ t X ’The interested Parkinson, it is newly learned, has been urged by top Romney men not to sign up with Nixon forces who are said to be bidding high for him. Parkinson has visited Romney in Lansing. A A ,A As for White, he has avoided having to give Ronuiey or any other candidate a flat “no” by informing one and all that he wants to stay unattached for awhile. Romney rides have made several overtures. Indications are White’wlll commit himself to one or another candidate after he has weighed their prospects more fully. Yet the modo'ates who are eager to get rolling are tantalized by this sitiiation. Many feel that Ronmey absolutely must have a man of white’s caliber and knowledge at the strategy level. AAA It was evident at tbe Republican National Copamittee meeting in New Orleans that iEtoraney’s poUfical allies—mxl ^lumerous figures adio might join them under the right dr-cumstances — believe time is all too short. Srandings in * Lansing indicate the governor himself how may grasp the< need for speed in surroundiag his camgpign effort with vital professional assistance.

Surveyor Finds o Morket for Spinning Wheel RICHMOND, Calif. (UPI)-Anthony Cardarelle was a field surveycK- 12 years ago when he decided to try his hand at making a spinning wheel. He completed a wheel and took it to a weaver who pronounced it sound and suggested the mechanism might have commercial value. The weaver was right. So Cardarelle started making wheels for sale. Eventually he quit his job as a surveyor to become what he believes is.America’s only professional spinning, wheel maker. ★ ★ ★ “It takes three weeks to handcraft parts for four wheels if I’m not interrupted," said Cardarelle. But, he added, he usually is interrupted by customers who want family heirlooms repaired or seek one of the wheels he has acquired from Finland, Holland, Sweden, China or Bavaria. ★ ★ ★ He says he has customers from throughout the United States and added, “You can’t make a fortune, but I get satisfaction when I stamp a wheel with my signature and know it will be here KX) years from now.” Longest Dry Spell Rain in the Atacama Desert in Chile has not been recorded for 375 years.
