"I am conviced that even today the Russians would very much like to land a man on the moon ahead of us. I believe that a year.aga. things stood at 50-50, that our recent successes put us in the lead by a full nose, that the Russians still have not give up the race and that today they are at the most a year behind us," Von Braun said in an inter view published in the weekly il lustrated magazine Stern. Road To Rock Sealed Off GIBRALTAR (AP) Spain sealed off the road to the Rock of Gibraltar at midnight Sunday, locking its 4,600 Spanish workers outside. Cut off from their jobs in the 250-year-old British bastion that guards the entrance to the Mediterranean were most of the peninsula's barbers, cobblers and bakers.

Other Spaniards worked in the dockyards, hotels, restaurants and on building projects. The La Linea customs and police post at the base of the 2-mile peninsula was closed. The move was part of Gen. Francisco Franco's campaign to cripple the British territory economiral-ly and force Britain to return the Rock to Spain, a transfer an overwhelming majority of Gi-braltarians oppose.

The one area he exempts is South America's backward West Coast. It should not be thought, however, that only Latin America suffers today from colossal wastage and harmful or backward production practices. In India alone, it is estimated that spoilage costs the country annual lorses of three million tons of rice. Nigeria and rebellious Biafra lose millions of dollars' worth of crops to rapacious little birds which sweep across Africa.

The FAO says flatly that the wastage of human effort and farm product is vastly greater in Latin America, Afnca and Asia.

Nelson Rockefeller's forays into Latin America, like to suggest that we are somehow wickedly rasponsible fcr among other things most of the world's hunger and poverty. We are pictured as impeding "land reform," that concept cm-braced by liberals and radicals as a magic means of alleviating the distress of impoverished peasants in the under developed lands. We are portrayed imperialistic exploiters who, alone among the nations cf the earih, are cruelly robbing the peoples of Asia, Africa and Latin America of even their subsistence resources. THESE SWEEPING indictments cannot be dealt with simply, but require a series of reports. At the outset, it seems useful to examine a monumental, yet largely unappreciatedfactor in the world's hunger and poverty the enormous waste and misuse of food resources.

Just a few years ago, Sir Robert Robinson, a British Nobel Prize winner, estimated that from 15 to 35 per cent of all the world's agricultural pro duction, representing up to $48 billion a year, is lost to pests, disease and weeds. The losses are greatly magnified by the incredibly widespread mishandling nf har vested crops in storage and 1" in Latin America, where violence-bent students have been suuuuuk ui 'villainy." the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization reports that annual crop losses come to about 40 per cent of everything that is produced. While the students are practicing their, anti-American chants arid collecting rocks to throw at U.S, officials, their own countrymen on farms and in warehouses are wasting two-fifths of all the food, and fiber they have struggled fo produce. ONE SCHOLAR says, further more, that the West, Coast of! South America, where Rockefeller found the hatred most virulent, has been the poorest performer of any area of the globe in improving food production since 1950J -t The peril of tiis "failure is obviously greatly: enhanced by the fact that throughout most of Latin America population is Increasing at an annual rate of 3 "percentrthe astefrowtlMmv-j where.
