Over Paei
VANDENBERG AIR FORCE
BASE (P)-The gold-plated cap-
sule of the 35th Discoverer satel-
lite was caught in the air by an
Air Force recovery plane yester-
day.
This is the 10th recovery in the
series and the seventh to be made
in the air, the Air Force announc-
ed in Los Angeles. Three capsules
have been recovered from the sea.
The capsule was parachuting
toward the Pacific when it was
plucked from the sky at about
13,000 feet, the Air Force said.
The catch was made on the
plane's first pass about 15 mile*
west of Tern Island and about 650
miles west of Hawaii.
Discoverer 35 was launched here
Wednesday. It was powered by a
two-stage Thor-Agena B rocket.
One aim of the series is to per-
fect a recovery technique that can
be used later on manned space
vehicles.
The Discovered 35 capsule con-
tained a variety of experiments
designed to provide important
data on space environment.
The capsule also contained bio-
logical matter, including spores,
tissues and cells. The Air Force
wants to determine the effects of
different radiation doses on such,
samples.
World Protests

Rebel Leaders
PARIS ,-M)-International pres-
sure mounted on France yester-
day to release imprisoned rebel
leaders in the 16th day of a hun-
ger strike.
Rebel leader Mohammed Ben
Bella and four other imprisoned
ministers of the Algerian govern-
ment in exile declared, however,
that negotiations for a cease-fire
in the seven-year war might be
resumed before their release and
even while they are still on strike.
One of the most violent demon-
strations against the detention of
Ben Bella and his fellows broke
out in Moscow. About 2,000 stu-
dents from Friendship University,
marched on the French embassy,
broke all its windows, threw ban-
ners into the front hall, and ran
up an Algerian flag on the flag-
pole.

BERLIN:
Seeks End
Of Red Wall
BONN ( )-Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer declared yesterday that
East-West talks on Berlin can-
not get under way until the Com-
munists tear down their wall di-
viding the Red-encircled city.
The Chancellor, just elected to
serve a fourth consecutive term as
leader of West Germany, said he
sincerely hoped that negotiations
with the Soviets would start soon.
But he asserted the West must
go into such negotiations backed
by the greatest possible military
strength and he reiterated that
NATO members should be entrust-
ed with powers to decide for them-
selves on the use of nuclear weap-
ons in an emergency.
Adenauer said these points
about Berlin are non-negotiable:
The freedom' of Berlin must be
preserved, the wall must be re-
moved and the communications
between Berlin and West Germany
must be secured because without
them Berlin -cannot live.
Immidgration
Bill Approved
LONDON --A bitterly dis-
puted bill limiting Commonwealth
immigration to Britain was ap-
proved by the House of Commons
last night over opposition protests
that the measure was rooted in ra-
cial discrimination.
The vote on the bill was 283-
200. It ties the number of immi-
grants to the number of jobs
available for them. Criticism was
based on the belief that would-be
immigrants from India, Pakistan
and the West Indies would be thej
first kept out.
Hugh Gaitskell, leader of the'
opposition Labor Party, begged
the government "to drop this mis-
erable, shameful, shabby bill."
"The whole future of the world
probably will depend on whether
people of different colors can live
in harmony with each other."

Possible Successors
By MICHAEL HARRAH
Speaker of the House Sam Ray-
burn is dead.
The Texas Democrat, who serv-
ed as speaker twice as long as
anyone in history, passed away
early yesterday at the age of 79.
He had been stricken with wide-
spread cancer, and he died in his
sleep at his Texas home.
President John F. Kennedy, en
route to the west coast, said that
"the nation has lost a devoted
servant and the citizens of this
country an unflinching friend."
Tower of Strength
Former President Dwight D. Ei-
senhower noted "the title, 'a dis-
tinguished American,' is rightly
his. On international affairs he
was a tower of strength to four
presidents."
Leaving Detroit, Vice-President
Lyndon B. Johnson said "the Cap-
itol is a pretty lonely place with-
out him and the good people of
the world have lost a champion
and an ally."
Rep. George Meader (R-Mich)
of Ann Arbor noted that "his
death will leave quite a hole in
the House of Representatives. He
will never be replaced."
Meader said that Rayburn was
held in great respect throughout
the Capitol and thus he com-
manded support from the many
factions of the Democratic Party
for much of President Kennedy's
legislative program.
Seek Successor
He said it certainly wasn't yet
settled who would succeed Ray-
burn. However, frontrunners in-
clude Majority Floor Leader John
McCormack (D-Mass) and Rep.
Wilbur Mills (D-Ark), current
chairman of the House Commit-
tee of Ways and Means. He said
that Mills had long been respect-
ed in both parties.
Prof. George Peek of the poli-
tical science department agreed
that it probably would be much
harder to hold the Democrats to-
gether, and he said the party
might well experience an internal
scrap over his successor.
"McCormack is head and shoul-
ders above the rest of the field,"
he said, commenting on various
representatives' chances, "but if he
is not selected, they will have to
get a man who is not particular-
ly identified with either South-
ern conservatives or the Northern
liberals."
Influence Choice
Prof. Peek suggested that Rep.
Albert Rains (D-Ala), Dep. Carl
Elliot (D-Ala), and Rep. Richard
Bolling (D-Mo) were all "moder-
ates." And too "Bolling is Ray-
burn's man," he said, though it
would be hard to say whether
Rayburn had tried to influence
the choice of his successor.
Prof. Peek said that the situa-
tion was "tough for Kennedy. If
it comes out that he is support-
ing someone for the post, con-
gressmen could look on it as a
disruption of their prerogative."
There were a number of times
when Rayburn was considered a
possible Democratic nominee for
the White House, but the fact
that he didn't make it never disap-
pointed him.
"I might have been president if
Franklin D. Roosevelt hadn't
wanted to stay in the White House
forever," he once quipped. "But
really I think I'was born in the
wrong section of the country and

at the wrong time to ever become
president. I don't care; I've
achieved everything I wanted.
Hell, I'd rather be speaker than
10 senators. I love the House."

WASHINGTON ()-Reports of a marked buildup of United
States military assistance to South Viet Nam received indirect con-
firmation in the State Department yesterday and accounts from Sai-
gon told of aerial reinforcements.
But, at present, there apparently is to be no use of United States
combat forces to check Communist guerrillas besetting that nation.
Lincoln White, State Department press officer, told newsmen
"we will fulfill our commitment to help the Republic of Viet Nam in
responding to the Communist"
threat and in its determination to
remain free." iRenew Tall

May Request
Nuclear Law
WASHINGTON (P)-Adminis-
tration sources predicted yester-
day President John F. Kennedy
will ask Congress for a stand-by
law to authorize price and wage
controls and rationing for use only
in event of nuclear attack on the
United States.
Tension over Berlin has lent
new urgency, officials said, to the
long-standing proposal for "self-
triggering" control authority - a
plan, which the Eisenhower cab-
inet debated several times, but
never formally requested.
Frank B. Ellis, director of the
Office of Emergency Planning,
can be expected to "bring the
need forcefully to the President's
attention" before Congress con-
venes Jan. 10, an Administration
source said.
The plan for national survival
contemplates that the government
would immediately invoke, by
proclamation, a general freeze of
prices, wages, salaries and rents.

ors and other innal authorities

Kuznetsov's oral presentation
suddenly dashed the speculation
of some diplomats here that a
Finnish communique issued in
Helsinki Tuesday represented a
softening of the Soviet demands
and that this particular situation
would remain quiet for at least
three months.
The new development revived
fears that Russia may now press
for bases in Finland, endangering
that country's precarious neutral-
ity.
Kuznetsov called alarming the
visit of West German Defense
Minister Franz Joseph Strauss to
Norway and his talks there on
military cooperation, imminent
NATO maneuvers off Denmark's
Baltic islands, and reports in Dan-
ish newspapers that a Danish-
West German agreement on a
joint command would soon be
reached.
The Soviet Union was represent-
ed as being uneasy over agitation
in Finland among some political
circles to upset the present rela-
tions.

Army Jubilant
Over Success
Of Nike Zeus
POINT MUGU, Calif. (P) - A
Nike Zeus solid fuel rocket
streaked far over the Pacific yes-
terday and scored the first test
success for the new "missile kill-
er" defense device.
Jubilant Army officers, who had
to destroy rockets used in the two
previous tests because they veer-
ed off course, pronounced No. 3
"a 100 per cent success."
The Nike Zeus system when per-
fected is expected to be able to
knock down attacking nuclear
tipped missiles.
Unofficial reports say that the
United States is going ahead with
development of a new kind of nu-
clear device, the neutronbomb. A
Nike Zeus with a neutron bomb
warhead, scientists say, could
detonate oncoming missiles at far
greater distance than with a con-
ventional atomic warhead.
