Lt. Col. John H. Powers anoth-
er NASA spokesman said Glenn
acceprfed the nerve-fraying news
calmly and ate what was to have
been his pre-launch breakfast.
Powers quoted Glenn as say-
ing! Well we knew the weather
was forcast to be marginal so
I'm not too surprised. All we can
do now is watch the weather. Ev-
erything else including me Is good.
Im going back to bed and get
some rest.
The decision to postpone the
flight was made by Walter C. Wil-
liams Project Mercury operations
director after a two-hour weath-
er conference which began at
midnight.
This conference drew on infor-
mation gathered by wide ranging
weather planes and from ships
stationed in the areas selected for
a landing by Glenn depending on
whether he made one two or
three trips around the globe.
Asked how long the launch could
be postponed on a day-to-day
basis Powers said: We can go
on this way for four or five days.
The NASA statement detailing
the 24-hour delay said:
The weather indication was
considered to be unsatisfactory for
a launch Wednesday morning.
The forecast for the next 24 hours
is for continued marginal weather
in the emergency landing areas
from Bermuda to the Canary
Islands. A low pressure system
located in the mid-Atlantic is ex-
pected to piroduce continued cloud-
iness moderately rough seas and
moderate winds.
Powers put this into simpler
language in explaining the length
of the weather conference.
It was a matter of evaluation
he said getting reports from
down range ships. This was what
really took so long waiting for
reports from the ships. Theres
some pretty rough weather out
there.
Under no circumstances ac-
cording to previous information
from NASA will Glenn be sent
on his mission to circumnavigate
the globe three times through
I space if the w aves in any of the
I planned landing areas exceed five
feet and the winds are stronger
than 20 miles pier hour.
fthile there was no report on
wind velocities in the landing
areas the waves were still break-
ing at eight feet.
This was the eighth time Glenn
I had been scheduled for launching.
The first time was Dec. 20.
Kennedy
Robert
vance to keep the negotiators in
session until positive results have
been achieved.
I do not believe that the at-
tendance by the heads of govern-
ment at the outset of an 18-nation
conference is the best way to
move forward Kennedy said to-
day. The President said he agreed
with Khrushchevs observation
that a better basis exists now
than previously for success of the
conference although substantial
differences between the East and
West linger on.
As an example Kennedy cited
Soviet unwillingness to consent to
allow a disarmament control
agency to verify that agreed lev-
els of manpower and armament
are not exceeded.
Kennedy said the conference
must search for means for over-
coming differences by sjaecific dis-
armament measures.
This does not mean sticking to
routine procedures or that heads
of government should not take in-
terest in negotiations from the
very start he said.
It does mean that much clar-
ifying work will have to be done
in the early stages of negotiation
before it is possible for heads of
government to review the situa- i
tion. This may be necessary in j claim
any case before June 1 when a
report is to be filed on the prog-
ress achieved he said.
The United Nations set June 1
as the first deadline for a report
on progress toward a disarma-
hent agreement.
United States would do if nego-
tiations over West New Guinea
were broken off.
What the United States does
if negotiations break down de-
pends on who breaks negotia-
tions he told the 1200 students.
We will make a major effort to
bring you and Holland together.
We all have disagreements and
sometimes we disagree with you
and you with us. But that doesnt
mean to say you can tell the
United States to go to hell.
We all have to show maturity.
I dont ask your agreement on
all we do I ask your understand-
ing. Let us not make it a one-way
street. If we disagree it doesnt
mean we have to pick up our
marbles and go home.
In his speech Kennedy said the
United States is sympathetic to
nationalism and reminded the
students the American people
fought for national independence
in 1776 and have been its spear-
head ever since.
The students warmly applaud
ed Kennedy and student leaders
gave him a silver dinner gong.
Foreign Minister Subandrio said
Kennedy and Sukarno are seek-
ing a speedy solution to the dis-
pute brought about by Indonesias
i West New Guinea.
