Bundy in a speech to the eighth biennial conference, said Viet Nam "is an area where the partnership between Japan and the U.S.

UNTIL NEXT YEAR The failure meant that Schirra and Stafford probably will have to wait until next year for another try at the rendezvous and docking mission, completion of which is critical to this nation's plans to land men on the moon. However," Dr. Robert Sea-mans, associate administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said that the failure would not delay the United States' schedule to put a man on the moon by 1970. Robert R. Gilruth, director of the Manned Spacecraft Center at Houston; said.

rescheduling of the next Gemini flight would not be made until it could be determined what went wrong with the Agena.
