Democrats Critical To Ike's Speech
President Eisenhower's State of the Union message to Congress Thursday was met today with skeptical comments from some Democratic congressmen.
Democratic leaders wanted to know how the President would carry out his 8-point security program and get his own party to support the general goals set forth in the speech.
Cape talk is that a Navy Vanguard is about ready for another satellite launching attempt, possibly as early as next week.
At Cane Canavalal, Fla., the Air Force successfully fired its thunderous Atlas intercontinental missile today. The firing, strictly a military show at this stage, was the fourth test of the Air Force's entry in the ocean-spanning weapon category.
Republicans voiced almost no criticism of the program as a whole despite some reservations about its details. The administration viewed selling Mr. Eisenhower's proposals for more foreign economic aid and a more liberal trade law as its toughest assignments in Congress this year.
In his speech, the President invited the Soviets to join other nations in pooling non-military knowledge to conquer common enemies such as cancer and heart disease. The idea was offered as one part of a program of "total peace" to meet Russia's cold war missile challenge. There was favorable reaction in Congress to the mutual science effort plan.
In Washington, the Navy's atomic submarine chief said today that President Eisenhower's budget bureau is withholding funds appropriated by Congress. He did not say why the money has not been given to his projects.
Rear Admiral Hyman G. Rickover also said that the Navy is now
designing nuclear power plants for submarines "which would last the ships for almost an entire war without refueling." He said it is developing a machine to make oxygen from sea water.
Haroled Gibbons, St. Louis, a vicepresident of the union, told of the assessment yesterday at a meeting of Teamsters officials from 13 midwestern states. He said that president-elect James Hoffa had nothing to do with planning the fund but he supposed that Hoffa would benefit from it.
Also in Chicago, former world's heavyweight boxing champion Joe Louis, who owes the government more than a million dollars in back taxes, has reached an agreement to oay $20,000 a year on the giant debt.
In International Falls, Minn., authorities called off a search for a missing 5-year-old boy Thursday night and theorized that he was either dead in the frozen brush or abducted. The child, Danny Lamon, disappeared Wednesday from his back yard where he was playing.
Mr. Louis said he hopes the government will make adjustments later on the amount he owes. He has little left of the four million dollars he earned in 17 years as a professional fighter and insists he doesn't know where most of the money went. One of his problems was that deductions he claimed during his big money years later were disallowed by the government.
In Chicago, about 2,000 officials of the giant Teamsters Union faced assessments of 1,040 each to build a $2,000,000 fund for their defense should they "run into legal difficulties."
Afro-Asian Conference Delegate KU Alumnus
The recent anti-Western Afro-Asian Peoples' Solidarity Conference held in Cairo, Egypt was organized mainly through the efforts of a 54-year-old Indian, Anup Singh, thought to be the same man who received his master's degree from KU in 1926.
Available records show a man by the name of Sarain Singh attended KU during the spring semester and summer session of 1924 and the summer of 1926. He received his master's degree in chemistry in 1926, and later his Ph.D. from Harvard.
The Cairo meeting was organized as an answer to the 1955 Afro-Asian conference at Bandung, Indonesia. However, the representatives at the Bandung conference were the official choice of their country while those at the Cairo meeting were not.
Mr. Singh set the conference keynote in a speech attacking the United States and British nuclear experiments while ignoring those of Russia. However, he regards himself as neutral in the struggles between Communist and non-Communist nations.
Records in the alumni office show Saina Singh's home town to be the same as that of Anup Singh, which, along with the fact that Anup Singh had said he attended school in Kansas, may mean they are the same man.
During the conference Mr. Singh attacked the Eisenhower doctrine, saying that "if there is any vacuum to be filled it is in the hearts of the architects of these doctrines."
Captain J. C. Denison of the Kansas City district of the Corps of Army Engineers spoke on flood control in the Missouri-Mississippi River system at a recent meeting of the KU chapter of the Society of American Military Engineers.

First uncensored photo of TALOS, long range guided missile developed by APL for the Navy.
Technical achievement is our sole concern
The Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) of The Johns Hopkins University exists solely to make scientific and technical advances. For this reason we are able to offer our staff members freedom to explore tangential ideas, which frequently lead to significant accomplishments. Among our "firsts" are the world's first supersonic ramjet and the first large booster rocket. As far back as 1948 we achieved fully-guided supersonic flight.
Today two guided missiles that grew out of our pioneer work are in production: The TERRIER is now a fleet service weapon, and TALOS (above) has been adapted for land as well as ship-based operation. When TALOS was recently unveiled by the Navy, APL shared honors with many associate and subcontractors who had worked under our technical direction in its development.
We are presently engaged in missile assignments of a highly
advanced nature which cannot be divulged for security reasons. Suffice it to say that, as always, our work is of such vital importance and urgency that little is spared to facilitate its progress. Scientists and engineers at APL are in the vanguard of science and enjoy the keenest sort of responsibility and challenge.
