Sen. Johnston Demands Explanation For Firing Agricultural Attache

WASHINGTON, LR - Sen. Olin Johnston D-SC) demanded from the Eisenhower administration the inside story of the dismissal of Wolf Ladejinsky, US. Agriculture attache at Tokyo
 Secretary of Agriculture Ben son fired Ladejinsky Dec. 16 on security and other grounds. Last spring, the State Department had cleared Ladejinsky as a security risk.

IT by the Senate Service Committee on the Lade- jinsky case in particular, and the government security program in general. Johnston will head the committee in the next Congress.
 H. w. Brawley, the committees chief counsel, announced that Johnston has addressed letters to Benson and Secretary of State Dulles calling for whole works" report on their different findings about Ladejinsky.

 Brawley said, "dismissals on trumped up security risk cases would be very serious thing"

Air Force MedicO Rides Rocket Sled
 632 mph And Stops In IA Seconds
 In Stimulation of High-speed Bail-out

LOS ANGELES, R-A doctor rode rocket sled to a new land speed record of 632 mph, then braked to full stop in IA sec onds with a jerk that snapped his eyeballs from their sockets.
 It. Col. John Paul Stapp, A, an aero medical scientist, set the mark during an air survival test in rocket-propelled open sled roaring along rails of 2,500-foot track. There was no windshield to protect him from the terrific rush of wind.
 My eyeballs became uncaged, but there was no impairment of thinking" Stapp said in a tele- phone interview.
 Although he made his rapid journey at Holloman Air Devel- opment Center, N.M., on Dec. 10, the Air Force didn't disclose de- tails until yesterday.
 The speed record came only as secondary part of the test. Stapp's ride was taken to simu- late pressure that airmen would encounter bailing out of a super sonic plane flying 1000 mph al an altitude of 35,OOO feet.
 Asked if he is convinced pilot can safely bail out at supersonic speeds, the beSpectacled, calm voiced scientist said he wants to make another test before giving an answer. The colonel indicated further tests are needed on wind blast effects.
 Results of these test will deter mine what type of election appa- ratus can be most safely used on highspeed airplanes.

Big Chief Beaver" Shoots Arrow Thru Wife's Chest, But She Returns To Act

BR1DLINGTON, England, R- woman collapsed on the stage with an Indian arrow through her chest - and the crowd of 1,2O0 cheered and clapped. TT y thought it was part of the act.
 The performance last night fea- tured Big Chief Beaver" North American Indian, and his London born wife, 22-year-old Marie.
 The Indian threw knives and axes and shot arrows at his wife.
 For protection Marie had a small wooden shield she could shift across her body when a shot appeared to be coming too close.
 Beaver shot steel-tipped arrows from about 20 yards. By a "thou- sand to one" chance, an arrow went through a hole in the shield made by a previous missile and penetrated the woman's chest, just missing her lung.
 A doctor ordered Marie to with draw from the show. But she went on as usual in a later perform ance last highland was ready to do it all again today.

and the hauling Of the ingot
from the point Of production to

Many Of the items involve long
