be the most important develop-
ment of 1961. It isn't ntetely tue
scientific aspect that counts, al-
though it is a major consideration.
It's the fact that Communism now
has new prestige, since the achie-
vement is attributed to socialist
planning. There also is an indirect
dividend in that the fcal w'" have
a bearing on East-West negotia-
tions.
The launching opens a "fourth
phase in the Soviet space program, j
to explore the planets. The next
and fifth phase would lie to put a
human in space.
In effect, the Russians have
created a space platform from
which to launch a talkative and
guided visitor with a good chance
of hilling or going into orbit
around Venus.
Moreover, the performance is
another dramatic demonstration

gap still exists and that it may not
narrow for a while yet. 'I he two
countries may be equal in the
sense that they have enough to des-
troy each other, but any claim that
we have closed the gap in the
field or rocketry simply does not
stand up to the evidence at hand.
1 nen, too, there is the factor
known as technological sophisti-
cation. The launching of a space
pad from which another rocket
took off displays a vast know-how,
a lamiliarity with rocket princip-
les which we may not posses.
It must bc said and repeated
ai this stage that this is not for
lack of basic talent and resources.
Any fair estimate of our scientific
and technological capabilities will
show that we are well ahead of
the Russians.
We have failed administratively
and in other areas. We have not
been able to accept what our eyes
