A week in advance of ground' hog day, the society called for his dethronement as "King lot the Weather I Prophets."

It would be the cornerstone of a "realistic and flexible" wage policy; one wage board member said, that will develop piecemeal as the board faces specific problems. . In the meantime, all wages and salaries are frozen at Thursday's levels. For the moment, there are no exceptions whatsoever, The effect of the wage freeze In is to hold up collective bargaining until the order is relaxed.

Missile and rocket tests have been under way for more than two years by all of the services from the navy's first experimental' rocket launching ship Norton Sound and at the army's proving grounds at White Sands, N.

Successful launching of guided missiles and rockets from a surface ship which would be able to approach an enemy coastline show that even a weapon of relatively short range could become an intercontinental weapon, the defense department said in an official publication. Another important development is the navy's "Mighty Mouse," an r" rocket with folding fins. This weapon, announced months ago, was developed for use by high-spefighter aircraft in attacking large, high-speplanes.
