Missile Plans Are Cancelled
WASHINGTON —(UPI) —The Air Force early today cancelled a planned effort to fire a missile across the path of the "Paddle-Wheel" satellite recently put into orbit.
The missile was to have been launched across the satellite's path when it crossed Aleuthera Island at an altitude of 160 miles. That is the low point in the satellite's elongated orbit.
The Air Force had intended to try the intercept mission with a two-stage ballistic missile fired from beneath the wing of a B-47 bomber. There was no intention, according to authorities, of actually hitting the satellite.
The two-stage missile separates from the bomber wing and arches on a high trajectory much like a ground-launched ballistic missile.
The missile was one of the test vehicles the Air Force has been using in an effort to develop an air-launched ballistic missile to be hurled at enemy targets from bombers flying at great distances away.
There have been several successful tests in the air launched ballistic missile program and the Air Force is now studying whether to put such a weapon into production.
Rolls-Royce Is Big, Expensive
LONDON — (UPI) — Rolls-Royce surveyed the trend toward smaller cars and came up today with a new super-luxurious model nearly 20 feet long and with a price tag to match. $26,300.
The Phantom V. first new design of that series in 24 years, also comes in a stripped down model for $24,931. It is 19 feet. 10 inches long.
The new Phantom has such features as: A television set in the back; Veneered French figured walnut woodwork; Choice of English glove leather or specially woven cloth upholstery; a cocktail cabinet attached to the back of the chauffeur's seat; a $1,000 air conditioning system that automatically adjusts to prevailing temperatures, and swivel chair seats.
The Phantom V, the designers admitted, wasn't designed to meet a demand for small car economy and handling ease. The big saloon (sedan) is only to transport its seven passengers in oriental luxury.
Rolls-Royce said the new model was "The answer to those people in the modern business and political world who require a spacious, luxurious vehicle in which to transport their important guests and executives."
Money Down the Drain
WESTPORT, Conn. — (UPI) — Town officials today wondered whether they had thrown money down the drain in okaying construction of an 800-foot sewer line along Burr Ave.
When the line was nearly completed Wednesday, they discovered there was a sewer pipe already there.
They decided to finish the new line anyway. Residents who hook up to it will be charged for the service.

Polls Give Laborites Hope to Win Election
New Confidence
LONDON —(UPI)— Labor Party leaders were jubilant with new confidence today over their chances of unseating the Conservative Party in the October 8 general elections
Top Laborite Hugh Gaitskell, usually a cautious man, talked as though he had an excellent chance of winning the post now occupied by Prime Minister Harold Macmillan.
A few weeks ago the polls indicated Britons would return the Conservatives for an unprecedented third term of control of the House of Commons but this week the polls revealed an alarming dip in Conservative popularity.
Hopes Higher
"Everywhere we have been we have found the most wonderful enthusiasm in the Labor Party," Gaitskell told a rally at Great Yarmouth.
"It is like the spirit of 1945 all over again," he said, referring to the spectacular postwar Labor victory that turned out the Conservative government of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
Opposition hopes were higher than at any point in the past several months. Labor candidates for the 630 Commons seats expressed surprise at the size of the crowds that have turned out to hear them.
Gaitskell and other Labor Party leaders apparently gained their new confidence from public opinion polls and the size of Labor rally crowds that have turned out to hear him on his 2,000-mile whistle-stop tour.
Most of the "straw votes" showed the Conservative margin of about seven per cent had been sliced in half. There were growing indications today the race may end in a photo-finish.

Macmillan Gone
Of the 50 seats, 35 are now held by Conservatives. Indications were that the Tories were in serious trouble in many of them but on the other hand had hopes of winning others held by the Laborites.
Conservatives and Laborites began to concentrate their best efforts on winning votes in about 50 "marginal" constituencies. They agreed that barring a completely unexpected landslide either way, the race would be decided in those constituencies.
Macmillan too was in the midst of a 2000-mile campaign tour. At Swansae last night he warned that if Labor comes to power that party would promptly re-nationalize the steel industry and "hobble and hamstring free enterprise (and) for a nation which lives by its exports, this would be sheer madness."
