In IC6M Race by Dec.
WASHINGTON (VP)—By December the United States

as the Russians, Secretary of Defense Neil 11. McElroy said
yesterday.
McElroy told this to the House Armed Services Com-
mittee.
The Pentagon chief said this country will have a few

MOSCOW f.Ti—Marshal Rodion
Malinovsky declared yesterday
the West’s nuclear weapons are
outdated by long-range sharp
shooting Soviet ballistic missiles
that no antiaircraft defense can
stop
'•Your aims are to short, gen
tlemen,” the Soviet defense min
ister warned the Western Powers.
The West wants to unleash war
with nuclear weapons, he assert
ed, “hut this is an outdated
means ”
“We have more perfected wea
pons, ballistic rockets—long, mid
dle and close range—that can car
ry their hydrogen charges to any
point on earth, to the very ooint,
for they are very accurate.”
“We are not contemplating at
tacking anybody,” he said, “but
we have all the means of inflict
ing retaliatory blows on aggres
sors, no matter where they are,
in order to end any desire on their
part to attack.”

ICBMs' by July “and a few more
by December 1959, which will be
within a few missiles one way or
the other of what he would ex
pect of the Russians at the same
time."
McElroy later told newsmen he
was speaking of missiles ready to
be used as combat weapons, not
—test rockets.
Not long after McElroy spoke,
missilemen at Cape Canaveral,
Fla., failed in a second try at
launching the Titan ICBM. The
defense Department said a mal
function caused a cutoff of the
Titan’s engines before the mighty
rocket could leave its pad.
Just last week, McElroy told
the Senate Preparedness subcom
mittee the United States will have
fewer ICBMs than Russia in the
next few years. He said then “it
is not our intention” to match the
Russians missile for missile in
ICBMs over that period.

Funds Sought
For Kinzua
Dam Project
WASHINGTON f/P)—Sen. Hugh
Scott (R.-Pa ) and Rep. Leon H.
Gavin (R.-Pa.) said Monday they
will ask congress for $2 million
this year for carrying on prelimi
nary work toward construction of
a huge flood control dam at Kin
zua, Pa.
Behind the proposal is the de
sire to provide adequate means
of controlling flood disasters such
as struck western Pennsylvania
this week.
Scott and Kearns both an
nounced they will ask for addi
tional funds to speed up planning
work in connection with flood
control projects at Sharpsville
and near Meadville.
Meadville, in particular, was
hard hit in the recent flooding of
French Creek. The flood danger
there continues despite blasting
of an ice jam in the creek.
Army Engineers continued to
blast the gorge and have com- J
pleted work on most of the heavy
ice. However, an estimated 900
feet of new 3-inch ice has packed
behind the gorge at Cochrantown,
a few miles below Meadville.

Norfolk's Enrollment Increases;
Fear of Trouble Still Persists
RICHMOND, Va. (/P) —Negro and white children paraded to
school yesterday without major incident on the second day of racial
integration in Norfolk and Arlington County.
Enrollment at Norfolk’s integrated schools jumped nearly 500
over Monday. The worries of parents apparently were diminishing.
But wary school officials and
watchful police in both Norfolk
and Arlington were unconvinced
the dangers of trouble and dis
turbance were over in a state
that submitted unwillingly to fed
eral court mandates for integra
tion.
In diminished numbers, and
with little to do but look on,
police still stood guard at three
senior and three junior high
schools in Norfolk and at Strat
ford Junior High in Arlington.
Schools in both communities—
-200 miles apart—operated without
a hitch. There was a bit of hoot

In the cafeteria, four white girls

Alexandria, another Virginia
community a few miles away,

The school board turned them
down. Legal arguments on the
action ended yesterday before
