He spoke of the moon race aftcr being specifically asked when the Soviet Union might lane', a man on the moon. He bean by claiming he didn t know when this might be possible. Then he said: "I have read reports that thc Americans want lo land a man on the moon by 1970. Well, we wish ihem success. And we will see how they fly there and -come to earth,' or rather i'rome to moon,' and most of all. -how thcy take off (from the moon) and come hack. Wc will study thcir experience." He added: : -We do not want to compete in sending people to the moon without careful preparation, it. , is clear that such a competition would not be a help but on the ! contrary, a hindrance because I this could lcad to the death of people." . Council Prelates Growing Restless By BENNETT M. BOLTON VATICAN CITY (AP)- Restless prelates at the Vatican ecumenical council are trying to find ways to make the as- Seek Probe On Censors TORONTO (CP)-The Cana- 'ban Authors Association Sunday appealed to the federal government to set up a Royal Commission to investigate censorship in Canada. Tlie association, in a telegram to National Revenue Min- isW< J. R. Garland, cited recent bans on works by controversial authors Jean Genet and Frank Harris as prompting their request. The telegram said: "The association deplores the recent action of Canadian customs officials in holding up at the border books by such authors as Harris and Genet. "This is the latest in a long scries of incidents which has deprived Canadians of the fundamental freedom to read nooks readily available in other parts of the Western world." Profumo-type Scandal Looms In Washington DES MOINES, Iowa <AP)- Thc Des Moines Register says the story of an exotic 27-year- old German woman who moved in high Washington circles before being deported will be told behind closed doors in the U.S. capital Tuesday. Thc copyrighted story by Clark Mollenhoff also appears in the Minneapolis Tribune and other Cowles publications. llollenhoff's story says Senator John Williams (Rep. Del.) has obtained a nearly complete rundown on the woman's life in Washington for two years before she was suddenly expelled last August. Mollenhoff said: "If the investigation brings out all of the information reported to Williams and to fed- I eral investigative agencies, the testimony could rock Washing- ton in much the same way the | Profumo scandals rocked Lon-i don last summer." Williams said ln Delaware he would have no comment on the story except to say it is 'an extremely sensitive and dangerous, matter." Mollenhoff says Williams will spell out the matter when he goes before thc U.S. Senate rules committee, which is examining allegations of improper conduct by certain Senate employees. The woman is the wife of a sergeant in the West German Army, Molenhoff said. She came to thc United States April 6, 1961. Her husband was attached to the West German military mission in Washington. Moellenhoff's story describes the woman as a part-time model and party girl whose friends include "some high White House figures." It says: "The woman lived in a comfortable brick home in Arling ton, Va., and moved in glittering crowd. It was not life that could be financed thc pay of a non-commissioned West German soldier." Mollenhoff said the FBI began an investigation of the German woman early last summer and that she and her husband wcre sent back to West Germany Aug. 21, 1963, with less than week's notice. Canadian ships stayed idle at three United States ports during the weekend as trade union members protested the trusteeship on five maritime unions established last week by the Canadian government. A partly-loaded grain vessel lay idle in Superior- Wis.; there were demonstrations in Buffalo, N.Y,, against the Algosteel out of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., and in Chicago longshoremen shunned the John " Prisoners In Good Shape On Synthetic Food VACAVILLE, Calif. <AP)-1 Eighteen prisoners at the California medical facility here have been living in good health for more than seven weeks on nothing but synthetic chemicals and distilled water, Dr. Wallace Lane Chan said Saturday. He said it is the longest time normal men have lived solely on synthetic food but he plans to extend the experiment to a total of 18 months. The prisoner volunteers, who haven't eaten anything solid since Sept. 3, are in better shape than they were, Chan said. Prison officials agreed. "The only thing is that they, tell me they used to dream of their girls and now they dream of food and they have pictures of hams and steaks on their locker doors-" Chan said. The experiment, under a $400,000 grant from the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration, is in search of a new food for astronauts. But Chan sees staggering possibilities for mankind in general. LISTS ADVANTAGES He listed some of them as: —Almost absolute weight, control, making people fatter or thinner at will. "I've lost 15 pounds myself," said Chan, who also is drinking the mixture. —Elimination of malnutrition- protein deficiency diseases and food allergies. —Spoil-proof food for storing in civil defence shelters. —A "giant step" toward ending hunger in the world. _A solution to fears that over-population will exceed the food supply, since the diet requires no agricultural or animal products. Chan said the chemicals, bought commercially- arc mostly amino acids of which 70 per cent are produced in Japan, 12 ner cent in West Germany and the rest in the United States. The chemists add glucose, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. . . , Thc diet, Chan said, is almost totally absorbed by the body, reducing waste excretion by 80 per cent. scmbly move more efficiently. "As recently as a week ago most bishops were reasonably satisfied with the pace of council work." Msgr. Derek Wnr- lock, secretary of the English hierarchy, reports, 'but now proposals are starting to arise on what can be done outside the daily sessions to get ma.- ters moving faster." Bishop Helmut Wittier ef Os- nabruck, West Germany, told a council press conference Satur- day that many prelates have "expressed their dissatisfaction ■ with the slowness of the council discussions, especially dar- ling the first part of last week. i Not a few of the speakers did not appear to make any def- Cte and concrete contributor, fthe progress of the council' Bishop Wittier said lengthy debates at the council were "Hr connected with the dis- tinctly pastoral character tf i this council.
