This crazy setup may help explain why tax evasion in Italy is almost a national sport, justified on the ground that tax authorities seem to expect untruthful answers and make their calculations accordingly.

OTTAWA REPORT By Patrick Nicholson

Recalling Hilter’s Deadliest Rocket

A rocket - powerful enough to carry two men into globe-girdl- ing orbit is certainly the most vehicle ever made by “man, and the most Jules Verne- ish. But it no longer evokes won- der ‘in our science-jaded eyes.

| Yet less than a quarter-century

ago, that rocket’s dwarfed pro- totype was intended to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat

| in a world war — and, as a no- | vel and very destructive weapon

against which no defence was possible, it might well have done. -

The Gemini V launch vehicle,

which two weeks ago put into |

orbit the capsule containing two astronauts, stood 109 feet high

|_and weighed 170 tons_at take-off. __| Its payload, ‘the capsule contain-_.

—ing the-twe-pilots,_weighed 7,000 pounds. That impressive mon- ster is the lineal descendant of Hitler’s V-2 rocket which weigh- ed only 12.65 tons while its pay- load of explosive was less than 2,000 pounds. It was called the

| V-2 because it was the second of | Hitler’s secret \‘‘Vergeltung’’ or

reprisal weapons; the V-1 was the pilotless flying bomb or do- odle-bug.

TO WIN THE WAR

Hitler relied on his secret wea- pons to turn the tide and win the war for Germany when his ar- mies had been everywhére forc- ed back into the defensive. He planned to launch a savage at- tack by 30.000 V-2 rockets on 20th October 1943. These were to be unlesshed against the City of

countryside which was one giant camp crowded. with. the soldiers and weapons being assembled for the invasion of Fortress Eur- opa. This target was so large that V-2s could not miss it des- pite their ten mile margin of er-
