NUCLEAR OR CHEMICAL?

Decision Is Due

On US.

By RALPH DIGHTON

Associated Press Science Writer

.IACKASS FLATS, Nev. tAP By mid-year President Kennedy is expected to reach a deci~i '1 that. could be the most impor- tant yet in the brief history of the space age: Whether to throw more millions into the cf- fort to develop nuclear rockets.

Tests now under way will ‘ weigh the benelits

against ..

Among the benefits could be a whole new space technology.

e same technology could bring giant military satellites capable of dominating near- earth space.

Among the hazards is an al- most certain increase in radia- tion. This increase. coupled with additional radiation expectable, during periods of intense solar flare activity. could be just enough to eep men grounded many weeks each year espe- cially if there are more high- .aItitude nuclear tests or acci~ dental explosions of nuclear ' plants during the space-

These are technical problems and probably could be met by shielding men and equipment and by launcltings during low- rarhation periods.

There are other factors.

By mid-year the nuclear rock- et. effort. known as Project Rn- ver. will have cost about $170,- 000,000. Officials have estimated the total will rise to $000000.- 000 before the first nuclear-pon- ered spaceship flies. ls the nu- clear-fueled candle worth the cost or should the money he be used to perfect today's chem- ical-fueled rockets:

It's a touin question.

Suppose the United States de- Cides to go slow on nuclear . as it did with missiles in the early 19505. Suppose an- ' nation pushes ahead. velups nuclear space engines despite the obstacles. That na- tion could if it chose rule space. and from space the earth.

That's one reason not only Washington but the world is watching the tests here on .lack- ass Flats of an admittedly crude. and cantankerous nuclear en-

Even more important than the increase in power is the accom- panying decrease in vehicle weight. This means greater

payload.

Scientists figure a nuclear stage capable of reaching Mars from earth orbit (radiation pro- hibits ground launching) would weigh about 1.000.000 pounds. A comparable chemical roc ket would weigh 10.000.000 pounds.

Brazil Only a fraction of Brazil's 3.288.050 square miles has ever felt the plow. As many as 58 plans for land reform have been presented in 12 years. but little has been done. Presi- dent .loao Goulart has said:

1475 Most of the arable land is held by a few wealthy owners who oppose reform.

h' e --A moderate agrarian reform plan Is part of a major economic and social overhauling within the framework of the Al- liance for Progress.
