Eisenhower Asks
New Agency Funds
BY WILLIAM HINES
star stan Writer

President Eisenhower asked
Congress today to give the
brand-new National AeronauticS
and Space Agency another s125
million with which to get
started.
The Chief Executive created
the agency late yesterday when
he signed a measure passed
earlier this month without a
dissenting voice in either house
of Congress. Today'S request for
$125 million would give NASA
slightly more than one-third Of
q billion dollars for its first year
of existence.
NASA takes over from the old
National Advisory COMMITTEES
for Aeronautics, whose $l0l.l
million appropriation is now
awaiting final action in the
Senate. Another Sit million
was transferred to the agency
from the Pentagon's budget by
order of the President today,
The total thus Is 1881 million.
Halls Action
In signing the law setting up
NASA. Mr.. Eisenhower praised
Congress for its ''promptness''
In providing authority for q
top-leveT space office.
In a brief statement. Mr..
Eisenhower predicted that the
new law should have an even
greater impact on our future"
than did the creation Of the
National Advisory Committee
for Aeronautics in 1915.
Mr.. Eisenhower gave no in
dication Of his choice for the
top job in the civilian space
agency. 1t is believed, how
ever. that NACA director Hugh
L. Dryden is a front-runner
for the post.
In addition to the admins
traitors position, there are
about seven appointments in
connection with the space
agency which win require presi-
Dental action. White House
Press Secretary James c. Hag-
erty said today he had no
information on when Mr.. Eli
senhower might make the
appointments. e..
1t is considered unlikely that
any Of them would stir up
much controversy at this time,
Combination Of Views
The space agency measure
combining elements of legis
lative proposals made by the
White House, the Senate anc
the House, was passed per-
functorily July 16. Neither
house debated the final ver-
sion of the bill before APP
proving It by voice vote.
Now that the space bill is
law. the National Advisory
Committee for Aeronautics has
80 days in which to transform
itself into the nucleus Of the
new National Aeronautics and
Space Administration. 1t APP
peared likely. however. that the
transformed agency will be
ready to go at a considerably
earlier date. Much Of the spade
