An Open Space Policy Plan was developed for the State of New Jersey to provide an adequate blueprint for preserving open space and creating a desirable recreational environment in the State in anticipation of expected increases in population and urbanization. Consideration was given to local, county, State, and Federal responsibilities in the development of an open space statewide program. Emphasis was placed on the priority for open space planning and acquisition in the northern half of the State because of an already existing deficit in open space acreage in that area. Plans for both the 10 and 20 million levels of population were considered. In effect, the Open Space Policy Plan was designed to make future open space easily accessible by locating it in close proximity to potential and already existing urbanizing areas of the State. (VM)

During World War II, America's civilian and military leadership embraced scientific research for a multitude of advanced weapons. Indeed, at war's end in 1945, General H. H. Arnold, commander of the Army Air Forces, could confidently assure Secretary of War Robert Patterson that the United States would shortly build long-range ballistic missiles to deliver,atomic explosives and "space ships capable of operating outside the atmosphere. Thirteen years later, both of the programs that Arnold forecast were underway. This period, the immediate prelude to the space age, spawned America's civil and military space programs--programs that were in the beginning opposite sides of the same coin. Elements of these programs, authorized and framed by one American president, would become instrumental in forewarning of surprise attack, monitoring compliance with international treaties, and maintaining a delicate peace between the Soviet Union and the United States. For contemporary reasons of national security, the executive action that shaped this enterprise and the space policy that President Dwight D. Eisenhower and his advisors created for it were obscured even to many of those directly involved.
