last Nov 25 He urged that the current decade be declared "a UN development" decade" Under the leadership of the United States and 15 other nations the assembly approved unanimously a resolution giving that name to the decade Thant called the action "perhaps as significant" in its -potentialities as any resolution ever adopted by the United Nations" NO COMMITMENTS There has been no announcement by the United the principal supporter of UN aid programs in the as to just how much money it would contribute The Soviet Union which also voted for the resolution has not made any specific commitments In general the main objective is to create conditions under which the national incomes of the developing or "have' not" countries would increase at a rate of 5 per cent annually by 1970 and continue to increase at that rate thereafter The present rate of increase is estimated at per cent "If this can be done" Thant said "and if the population of the developing countries continues to rise at its present rate of 2 to Vh per cent yearly personal living standards can be "'doubled within 25 to $0 years" He i warned that if the population increase goes beyond that as some experts say is it will take correspondingly longer to double living standards 7 If the 5 per cent increase is to be realized the report said manufacturing output in i the developing countries will have to be increased by at least 130 per cent As to the financial implications the report recommends expansion in the flow of capital and assistance that would add $4 billion to $5 billion annually to the present level This would include a $25 million increase in the UN expanded program of technical assistance and the special fund with the 1970 target set at $30a million annually in these two areas alone WIDE MARGINS Both senators were defeated by wide margins as they tried to slice RS70 margins back to the $171 million asked by President Kennedy and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara to continue limited development of the huge experimental aircraft Air-minded senators backed the full $491 million asked by top Air Force leaders to develop a complete weapons system including long-range radars new missiles and other special subsystems During the debate Sen Joseph Clark D-Pa said Kennedy "told me Sunday that even if extra funds are voted" for the RS70 he wouldn't spend them Robertson told the Senate however that McNamara had informed him privately that "it might be wise" to put some extra millions into developing the RS70 as a future weapons system The House had voted $224 million for the

Wednesday on the contra- versial issue brought a threat from Rep Wilbur Mills D-Ark that any increase below $8 billion might force the President to call a special session of Congress next fall to provide more financial elbow room for the Treasury It also produced angry complaints from Republicans against what they called blackmail and threats of reprisals against members who didn't support the

they could swim the tricky tides and undercurrents of the bay An extensive search by land sea and air units at the prison and on nearby islands was conducted during the 24 hours following the escape
