He urged a crash program to develop a Saturn rocket, warned the Soviets could beat the United States to the moon, and urged political stability and confidence, arguing the space race is a broader challenge to freedom. He noted Medaris’s resignation and warned against shrinking efforts.

Crane said the ban protects lives and property and will stand until further notice, with Gov. Friolo not issuing an emergency proclamation.
