London reports Britain will start mass production of an electronic underwater weapon capable of "seeing" submarines dozens of miles away. Allied defense experts call it a major step in countering Soviet oceanic threats.
The article notes the Variable Depth Sonar VDS developed with Canada and Britain to detect submarines, with a claimed 30 to 75 mile seeing range though British officials doubt the figures. It also reports Washington County peach growers moving a quality crop at higher prices per the American National Growers Corp. commentary on the season.

It cites 2.85 to 3 a bushel in some markets and reports Cuba’s Castro abolishing general rank to elevate commandante supremacy with over 7 commandantes listed.
