Pacific Basin
Pacific Basin Devastated By Earthquakes And Tidal Waves
Day after day of violent eruptions and cataclysmic earth shocks bring terror and devastation to Chile. More than half the nation is battered, with some two million homeless and thousands dead, as the torment of the nation continues. The temblors trigger tidal waves of colossal force which race across the Pacific at 500 miles an hour. Hawaii is battered, with 60 lives lost. Heavy losses are suffered in Japan and Okinawa. On every shore of the vast ocean, from Alaska and California to Australia, the mighty upheaval is felt.

United States
Missile Spotting Satellite Sent Into Orbit
On the eve of President Dwight D. Eisenhower's renewed plea for his 'Open Sky' Plan, a missile spotting satellite is sent into orbit from Cape Canaveral. The 5,000 pound package of instruments, third heaviest ever sent into space, will detect the heat trails of missiles below and signal an alarm to earth.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower Offers U.S. Spyplanes To U.N.
In an address to the nation, President Dwight D. Eisenhower calls on Russia to resume 'business-like' talks, and renews his 'Open Sky' Plan. Revealing amazingly sharp photos taken from 13 mile heights, the President offers to give American photo planes to the U.N. if his plan is adopted.

United States
Dramatic Evidence Of A Russian Listening Device!
The Security Council session on Russia's move to censure the United States for spy activities ends with a sharp final clash between Henry Cabot Lodge and Andrei Gromyko. Lodge dramatically discloses, then displays a microphone that the Reds planted in a wooden carving of the U.S. Seal that hung in our Moscow embassy. On the final vote, the Soviet motion to censure the U.S. is voted down 7-2!
