Here is a complete text of Dr. Bonner's speech which contains much interesting data for Herculites and all persons involved In the missile and apses industry.) The topic that I wish to discuss with you today is that of our nation's youngest but fastest growing major industry and of Utahs stake in this industry. The industry to which I refer is that of the development and manufacture of missiles and space craft, and it is frequently designated the aerospace industry. This industry was essentially nonexistent at the end of the second World War, and even ten years ago our total expenditures in this area were at the rate of only about $50 million dollars per year. Today, however, for missiles and space this country is spending at a rate of almost $12 billion dollars per year. It has been predicted that in another ten year this annual rate will be more than $20 billion dollars. COOL VALUE!

As time goes on, these vehicles will become larger, more complex and more sophisticated in their missions culminating, as we all know and as promised by President Kennedy, in the actual landing on the moon of a manned space ship capable of a return trip. It is a long step, though, from an Intercontinental ballistic missile or a space probe to manned space ship. Tha prob toms to be solved almost stagger the imagination. To point up the present stale of feeling about the complexity of these problems, Mr. James Webb, director of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, has estimated that the cumulative costs oi this first lunar landing will 11s between $20 and $40 billion dollars. Thus, expenditures for space science and space exploration must Increase at a rapid pact over the decade. In fact, this increase is expected to compensate for the anticipated leveling off oi missile expenditures as our ar- - Indeed, by 1970 the aerospace industry will have become larger than the automobile industry of the entire world, according to House Report 2091 of the House of Representatives Committee on Science and Astronautics. Thara are some 5,000 Industrial firms now engaged in providing the needs of the Space Age, many of them newly created small bus iness firms manufacturing squip-meunhaard of a faw years ago. There are estimated to be more than 100,000 persons employed in jobs directly related to the space program. To Utah, with four major aerospace contractors; Thiokol in Brigham City, Marquardt in Ogden, Sperry in Salt Lake City, and Hercules at Bacchus, plus Hill Air Force Base, plus a horde of smaller suppliers and subcontractors, this all means a substantial boost to the economy. The four major contractors alone provide today nearly 15,000 jobs that didnt exist five years ago. It is significant, too, that of these 15,000 jobs a large portion require the services of highly-traine- d scientists and technicians. In terms of money, these aerospace firms mean to Utah a direct annual payroll in excess of $60 million dollars. In addition, these same firms are spending at a rate of nearly $100 million dollars yearly for outside service and local subcontracting. Thus, over $160 million dollars is being pumped into the economy this year and its still growing. A glance at the Utah picture helps us see, too, both locally and nationally, how this effort is be' mg expended. The lions share still goes to missiles for our national defense.

Not least amongst the problems presenting themselves to the would-b- e space traveler, and the one that I find of greatest interest, is that of propulsion. The booster rocket required to lift this 7 or 8 million pound vehicle off the ground on its trip to the moon must exceed by a factor of one hundred the weight and thrust of anything we have ever flown.
