Volunteers Riding Rocket Sled
Duplicate Plane Crash Effects

Volunteers are duplicating air
crashes to see how much decelera-
ton the human body can stand,
the Air Force disclosed last night.
Riding in rocket-propelled sleds
at Muroc, Calf, the volunteer
hits $50 miles an hour and then
slows to rs in one-f1fth of a Sec
ond.
You'd get the same result, or the
same force at least. if you could
drive your car rs miles an hour
and stop it in 9 feet.
With proper support, the human
body-"a leather sack with a few
bones and IA quarts of liquid
can stand plenty if properly pro-
tected. The description is that
given by Maj. John P. Stapp, a
flight surgeon and one of the
volunteers.
The human guinea pigs have
taken fast stops registering IS Gs
-35 times the force of gravity
and an impact equivalent to that
felt in actual crash landings and
ditchings. the Air Force said.
Major Stapp compared it to
placing a man under a mattress
and placing a four-ton load on
him briefly.
After such shock tests, the SUBJ

Mrs. de Hesse Asks
Court 10 Bar Son From
Removing Securities

Mrs. Elizabeth de Hesse, in an
other District Court move yester-
day, sought to prevent one of her
sons from removing several hun
dred thousand dollars in securi-
ties deposited in a bank here by
her father, the late Richard Reid
Rogers.
Mrs. de Hesse, wife of Prince
Christian of Hesse Germany,
asked the court for a preliminary
Injunction and temporary re-
straining order to keep her son,
Richard. from removing the Sc
curities which he is expected to
claim as his.
Richard de Hesse, eldest of the
four children of the former prin-
cess who renounced her title to
be come an American citizen, is
believed en- route from Houston,
Tex, to the District. The injunc-
ton suit added that he has access
TO- the safe deposit box at the
American Security and Trust Co.,
reserved by him and his grand
father, Mr.. Rogers.
These securities, believed to
total about $500,O00 in value, are
additional assets not included in
the $495, 400 official evaluation
placed q the Rogers estate in a
petition filed in the wills office
on Friday.
Elizabeth de Hesse filed the
petition in which she described
herself as Mr.. Rogers sole heir
at law and next of kin, and asked
that number of allegedly faulty
wills left by her father be de-
clared void by the court.
Mr.. Rogers, who died Novem-
Der 10 at the age of 81, was
prominent attorney both here and
in New York.
In her suit, Mrs. de Hesse, who
at present is staying with Prince
Christian at the Mayfower, as
serted that her son claims the
securities in question belong to
him as gifts" or as trusts to be
held for the rest of the family.
Pleading further on behalf of
Mrs. de Hesse. Attorney David A.
Fegan declared that unless Rich
ard is restrained from removing
the papers. immediate and ire
parable" damage will result for
his client and the Rogers estate,
and any later judgment given by
the court in settling other aspects
OF the estate distribution will be
ineffective" as far as concerns
Mrs. de Hesse.
Mr.. Fegan asked the court for
an immediate hearing on his in
junction petition and that Rich
ard be enjoined until 80 days after
an administrator or executor may
be appointed by the court to
handle the estate.
Mr.. sFegan said that Richard
de HesseS is due to arrive here
tomorrow and to stay at the May
flower. ~ Z

If Made Witch Hunt
Of Loyalty Program

The Federal Bureau of Investi-
CATION, now caught up with its
work for the Federal employe
loyalty program, in statement
yesterday denied charges of en-
gaging in witch hunts" and
"hysteria" It said facts only were
laid before the proper authorities
and declared but a very small
fraction of Government workers

Mr.. Hoover said. A total of II ,403
full field investigations were con-
Quoted, he explained.
Charges Termed False.
"The discharge of the respon-
sibilities of the FBI under the

fishes the falsity of unwarranted
charges directed at the Federal
Employe Loyalty Program of
fomenting witch hunts and 'hys-
teria'," the statement said.
I'm each instance when a full
field investigation is requested
under the standards set forth in
the Presidents Executive Order

cure the facts which establish the
truth or falsity of charges when

Gus Loyalty Hearing Boards the
