Secretary of Defense McElroy faced Senate pressure to replace missiles director William M. Holaday as Johnson and the Preparedness Subcommittee push for a top civilian in charge. Senators say the missile program needs new leadership to avoid decisive failures. In New York, a seven day subway strike continued after failed peace bids from Mayor Wagner. Striking motormen will be replaced if they do not return by Monday rush hour. 162 new motormen have been hired since the walkout began as talks with Louis Waldman and union leaders resume tomorrow.

Simpson's Statement on Estate Life Insurance Case
Col. E. A. Simpson of Amarillo, attorney for John McCarty and Estes Life Insurance Company, says a suit will be filed against the Texas Insurance Commission, the state liquidator J. D. Wheeler, and associate J. W. Pierson if needed to address harm to McCarty as president and to Estate Life Insurance and its stockholders.

He cites McCarty and notes policyholders of Physicians Life may have a valid action against the commission and its liquidators.
