MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) — The
time is late summer 1959.
In a surprise 'attack," a big
jet-engine bomber speeds high in
upon a sleeping American city —
perhaps your o^n. . .
Defending rocket - missiles roar
:k it down—if their aim
is quick enough, and good enough.
It's a drone, automatically con-
polled, the biggest plane yet de-
signed this way to give realistic
combat-type training for Amer-
ica's air defense system.
The plane is a B47, powered by
six j^t engines, weighing 10 tons
loaded, flying 600 miles an hour,
ranging 3,000 miles nonstop. It can
fly as high and fast as -Soviet
medium bombers.
Two of the swept-wing B47s fcre

complex guidance and control sys-
tems here at Lockheed Aircraft
Gorp's Georgia Division o they
can take off, maneuver and land
again untouched by human hands.
Sperry Gyroscope Co. ii the rhajor
subcontractor.
After flight tests, the drones are
expected by late summer to be
making surprise probes of radar
detection systems and missile de-
fenses.
/ The drones could try, If desired,
to seek soft spots in defense sys-
tems such as the Dewline and
SAGE, and test the quickness and
aim of missile crews operating the
Nike-Hercules or Bomarc or oth-
er defenses fired either from the
ground or from defending air-
planes. . ■
The swift ships, controlled by
radar or radio from the ground or
by a mother ship, can make it
tough for defenders.
For they will be equipped to
jam some ground radar and elec-
tronic firing systems, or spread
metallic? chaff to confuse radar
sightings and trackings.
One plan presumably is to aim
defending rockets for near misses
intentionally, rather than to score
direct hits. That's easier on the
budget.
But actual knockdowns could be
in the cards. And the drones will
be rigged for blowup on command
if they get dangerously out of
control over cities. ,
Cameras and electronic devices
in the drones can record how ac-
curate the defensive aim was as
a missile, sails on by, explains
Di J. Morrisey and A. D. Brown,
chief systems engineer.

tributions to Social Security funds
advanced in the same proportion
should be thankful they don't
have to put up what their Italian
ooposite numbers do. It comes to
about 35 per cent of Payroll; per-
haps a little less, perhaps a little
mere depending on the type of
business.
An employer repdrts to as many
as six Social Security or similar
agencies. Some concerns are re-
quired. to file declarations in ad-
vance as to how much overtime
is exoected in a comw° period-^
and they must pay a 15 per cent
tax on the overtime pay.
Employers also must withhold
income taxes from emoloves in
the same manner as in the United
States; it's only the investors,
businessmen, professional men,
entertainers and similar persons
who find ways to evade. .
Look at just one instance of
what an cmoloyer has to pay in
various forms of Social Security
to an employe — not to o mention
what he has to pay if "the em-
ploye quits.
