Sen. Goldwater Claims
U.S. Is Using “Electronic
Ear" to Listen In on Cuba
WASHINGTON (jP — Sen. Barry
Goldwater, (R-Ariz.), said Satur
day he was informed the United
States has suspended low-level re
connaissance flights over Cuba and
is using special “electronic ear”
planes to listen in from outside
Cuban territory.
Goldwater, an Air Force reserve
major general, said in an inter
view that he was told the low
level flights were discontinued Feb.
9, three days after Secretary of
Defense Robert McNamara’s na
tionwide television report on the
Cuban military situation.
An informed government source
said this was in error. The source
said low-altitude flights were being
carried out as the need arose for
them and that the high-level re
connaissance flights were continu
ing.
Goldwater, a member of tne
Senate Armed Services Committee,
said the “electronic ear” planes are
equipped with sensitive devices
able to register details of what is
going on in Cuba down to the
point of detecting generators in
operation.
These planes, operated by both
the Navy and Air Force, are flown
at moderately high altitudes over
international waters and do not
pass over Cuba itself.
They are relatively more vulner
able than the low-flying craft to
the anti-aircraft missiles the Rus
sians have installed in Cuba, one
of which first missed but then
reversed its course to home and
destroyed a U-2 during the October
crisis.
The low-flying sorties are made
at an altitude at which radar is
not effective, and are gone almost
as soon as they are seen. American
military leaders think the Russians
are unable to cope with such
flights.
In the Feb. 6 report to the nation
on Cuba, McNamara said high
altitude surveillance of Cuba was
continuing and that low-level re
connaissance aircraft were “kept
on a 24-hour alert basis for use
whenever required.”
The effectiveness of U.S. sur
veillance in Cuba has been a sub
ject of debate in Congress, with
some of the administration’s critics
contending that this country should
have learned earlier than it did
last year about the installation of
offensive missiles in Cuba.

60-Year Failure
LOS ANGELES UH — “Our fail
ure in Cuba is not a six-month
or six-year failure—it’s a 60-year
failure,” says Allen Dulles.
The 1953-1961 director of the
U.S. Central Intelligence Agency
spoke to a civic luncheon of some
600 Friday.
“Why was it in 60 years that
the democracy of that island was
not so assured that it could not be
taken away by a bearded maniac?”
he asked.
“There’s plenty here for both
parties to cogitate about. I don’t
think there’s such a thing as a
Republican or Democratic fail
ure.”
Dulles, 69 addressed a town hall
group on “the role of intelligence
in national policy.”

| Soviets May Have
Nuclear Warhead in Orhi
WASHINGTON (JP) — It is con
ccivablc some object put into orbi
around the earth by the Sovie'
Union might carry a nuclear war
head without the United States
knowing it, the Air Force’s re
search chief told an inquiring
congressman.
Rut Lt. Gen. James Ferguson
had no chance in public to go be
yond his crisp. “Conceivable. Yes,
sir.” Any further questions were
deferred until the House Space
Committee went into a closed ses
sion.
Ferguson, Deputy Chief of Staff
for Research and Development,
told the committee his service has
to have a continuing space pro
gram because the Soviet Union has
plainly shown its interest in mili
tary uses of space.
He quoted Soviet Marsha] So
kolovsky in a just translated pub
lication as saj'ing, “an important
problem now is warfare with arti
ficial earth satellites, which can be
launched for diverse reasons, even
as carriers of nuclear weapons.”
Ferguson said a space vehicle in
orbit with a warhead could attack
in half the time needed by an
Intercontinental Missile.

• I NEW YORK W — The sales
I chart of women's slacks is shaping
an upward curve these days as the
garment industry tightens its grip
on the American female’s ward
robe.
And now the industry has Eu
ropean women in mind, despite
ciiticism of a sort from that direc- I
tion.
Industry sources confirmed sta
tistically today what many Euro
peans told the U.S. Information
Agency in a recent survey: That in
many American homes the women
wear the pants.
It’s true in this sense: Less than
a decade ago sales of women's
pants, including slacks and Ber
muda shorts, totaled less than 19
million pairs. Today, more than
40 million pair a year are sold.
The latest bulge in the sales
figure comes from stretch fabrics.
The European criticism was that
—figuratively of course—the fam
ily member who wore the pants
was the boss as well.
Not so, say the slacks manufac
turers. Slacks make women look
more feminine. They look good.
They give the figure a nice sil
houette.
They belong in every wardrobe
from 6 to 60, he said.
“Worn correctly,” said a woman
spokesman for another company,
“slacks can make even a heavy
woman look sleek. Of course
they’re fashionable.”
“Listen,” said one spokesman,
“Weren’t men wearing skirts a
few hundred years ago? and aren’t
the Scots wearing them. Does that
make them any less men? It’s just
the fashion.”

Pre-Registration of
Voters Measure Is
Out of Committee
1 JUNEAU </P) — A bill which
1 would require pre-registration of
all voters in state elections before
the 1964 primary election was
voted out of the House State Af
fairs Committee Friday.
The measure was a committee
substitute for a bill which was in
troduced at the request of Gov.
Wm. Egan.
Egan’s bill called for pre-regis
tration only in incorporated cities
or boroughs where more than 3,000
votes were cast in the preceding
genera] election.
Other than making the pre
registration requirement statewide,
the substitute version differs only
slightly from the original bill.
It would, however, require pre
registration before the 1964 pri
mary election, instead of the 1964
general election as set out in
Egan’s measure.
The bill provides that the Sec
retary of State shall mail dupli
cate registration cards to all per
sons who voted in last November’s
general election. That would apply
whether a voter cast his ballot
in person or in absentee.
Registrations also could be made
in person with city clerks or other
persons designated by the Secre
tary of State. Pre-registration
would also be handled by mail.
