New York Times interview of M/G Jewell C. Maxwell (USAF), Director of Supersonic Transport Development, reflected optimism about SST's future despite fact program had slipped "two quarters" while Administration deliberated allocation of funds for prototype construction. Gen. Maxwell said program currently was "marking time" at cost of $11 million monthly and had $90 million to $100 million left, but he had no doubts U.S. would push ahead with construction. Gen. Maxwell was leaving project to become Commander of Armament Development and Test Center at Eglin AFB, Fla. (Phelps, NYT, 6/23/69, 62)
