Expert Quits, Scores
Senior Space Advisers

A rocket and space expert
who is quitting as a key figure
in Air Force space planning
says overconservatism of senior
scientific advisers is responsible
for the Nations lag in space
age advances. He declined to
name the scientists he had in
mind.
Col william o. Davis. 38-ex-
pressed that view yesterday in
confirming Pentagon rumors he
Is resigning his commission.
He told a reporter that mill
tary leaders have been criti-
cized unfairly for Americas
trailing Russia in space re-
search and space efforts.
The basic trouble has been
the overconservatism Of our
scientists" Col. Davis said. He
said these are the men on
whom military leaders must
rely for chronological advice.
THE advice these senior
scientists gave our military
leaders was less than adequate
Sufficient information was
available through technical
channels as to what the Rus
slams we're doing, but this in
formation was not property
evaluated. Our military men
we're not wisely advised"

get and appropriation proceed
ure is placed in jeopardy"
Senator Lausche. Democrat Of
Ohio, Interrupted to ask how
large the national debt might
be If all committees Of Congress
followed the same practice Of
authorizing agencies to borrow
directly from the Treasury in
stead of obtaining appropria-
tons, which Congress could pass
on.
Ordinarily, new Government
programs are authorized in one
piece OF legislation. and then
followed up by an appropriation
DILL, which goes through the reg
ular> appropriation committees.
Those who object to the bor-
rowing process to finance new
programs point out that this
prevents the appropriation COM
mittees from getting an overall
picture of the total obligations
of the Government in any one
year.
Senator Case. Republican of
South Dakota. said this is par
ticularly true when the money
borrowed from the Treasury is
placed in a revolving fund, from
which the agency may continue
to spend as loans are repaid.
He said the appropriation COM
mittees never get a chance to
pass on these revolving funds.

Legal HassIe
Delays Probe
On Go|dfine
By the Associated Pres.

A House inquiry into the
affairs Of Bernard Goldfine
was temporarily derailed today
by legal hassle between Mr..
Goldfne's attorney and the
Congressmen.
Chairman Oren Harris. Dem
ocrat Of Arkansas, who says
his subcommittee needs the
Boston industrialist's records
for its investigation Of Fed
eral regulatory agencies. A.
nally recessed a scheduled
forenoon hearing. He said his
group would decide later today
what it would do next.
Mr.. Harris called off the
morning session after Attor-
ney Roger Robb demanded a
closed session. Mr.. Robb said
he wanted to protect innocent
persons against wild accusa-
tions" likely to be made in an
open hearing.
Mr.. Robb also asked Mr..
Harris to quash a sweeping
Subpoena for Mr.. Goldfine's
records that was served on
Mr.. Goldfine's bookkeeper,
Mildred Paperman.
Turns Down Motion
Mr.. Harris turned down the
subpoena quashing motion. but
said the subcommittee would
decide later today whether to
proceed behind closed doors
or hear Miss Paperman in a
public session.
Mr.. Robb cited a House rule
which provides that investiga-
lions may be closed if they
might lin any way defame,
degrade or incriminate" people
without proper safeguards.
Public hearings, Mr.. Robb
said, might tend to defame or
degrade Miss Paperman and
Mr.. Goldfine by the way the
information developed is han
died. He stressed that he did
not contend they mighe be in
eliminated.
Mr.. Robb accused the sub
committee in Boston hearings
last week of having tossed the
name of Sherman Adams,
President Eisenhower's top
aide, into the public record in
a way that might tend to de-
fame Mr.. Goldfine and Miss
Paperman.

In Mixed Race Picnic

among persons present. Each
disorderly conduct case must
be heard and decided on its
own merits, he said.
The officers had testified
that the basis for their arrest
was Mrs. Eldridge's refusal to
leave the park.
Commemorative Attorney
William j. Hassan argued the
woman's conduct was reason
ably calculated to create a
breach of the peace" and,
therefore, fell under a county
disorderly conduct ordinance.
However, Mr.. Sorg argued
that his client was arrested on
a charge without basis. He went
on to say that "if the Common
wealth, through the police de-
partment, attempts to enforce
segregation laws through dis
orderly conduct charge, then
there is either something wrong
with the segregation laws or
the police have been poorly adj
vised on what action to take.
Mrs. Eldridge, of 2716 South
First street, was one Of several
Negroes arrested at the picnic.
She was the only one to refuse
the order to leave. She is the
mother of Robert A. Eldridge,
@. who is one of seven Negro
children ordered admitted to
white county schools by Fed
eral Court order.
Virginia has a law which
forbids migration at public
assemblages. There was no con-
tention during the trial that
the church picnic would be
covered by this law.
Mr.. Sorg said he did not know
Of any law forbidding Negroes
from entering public parks.

tration to borrow $3.50 million
from the Treasury to help set
up private lending agencies TO
aid small business ventures.
Senator Bennett. Republican
OF Utah. persuaded the vir-
gilman to hold up his objection
until a later occasion. when
more Senators may be present
for a test vote on the issue.
Senator Robertson said today
he will seek a showdown by
raising a point Of order when
the Banking Committee brings
out another housing bill in a
few days, authorizing continu-
alton of the mortgage insur-
ance and urban renewal pro-
grams.
Began With RFC
Senator Robertson said the
practice of financing large scale
government spending programs
without getting the approval OF
the Appropriations Committees
began with the creation of the
Reconstruction Finance Corp
in 1892
1t was used again from time
to time during the depression
and World War II. Senator
Robertson estimates that, up to
June 80 of last year, the cumu-
lative total of direct borrowing
from the Treasury amounted to
SAB billion.
OF this amount, he said. $2S
billion is still outstanding. This
is equivalent to 10 per cent Of
the national debt.
There appears TO be no letup
in the ever-increasing use of
this m t hod of bypaSSing
the Appropriations Committee, "
said Senator Robertson. For
example, the bills reported this
year by the Senate Banking
and Currency Committee and
passed by the Senate have au-
thorized over IS billion in direct
borrowing from the Treasury
In addition, the banking COM
mittee is currently considering
an omnibus housing bill au-
thorizing more than 81 billion
in direct borrowing from the
Treasury.

mittee alone can direct the ex-

A Negro woman was ac-
quilted yesterday of a disorder
ly conduct charge brought when
she refused a police order to
leave a racially mixed church
picnic at Arlington's Bon Air
Park.
Mrs. Robert A. EldridgP 'r
81. was arrested June ! while
attending an Arlinetol
tartan Church picnic at the
park.
County Court Judge Paul D.
Brown said the case involved
the question of disorderly con-
duct and not racial segregation.
He based his ruling on a
parallel case cited by Defense
Attorney Karl Sorg. In this
case, the Virginia Supreme
Court of Appeals dismissed a
disorderly conduct charge
against a Negro woman who
had refused to change her seat
on a bus in Fairfax County.
The decision held that the
mere refusal to move" did
not necessarily constitute dis
orderly conduct.
Judge Brown said there was
no evidence of definite mis-
behavior or misconduct in the
sense that she Mrs. Eldridge)
was disorderly or turbulent"
The defendent, he went on,
was seated with persons of
her own Unitarian Church
present under a permit, and
who did not object to her
presence. The evidence shows
that none of the few persons
present objected or that there
was CONSERVATION among
them" afca
This situation, Judge Brown
said, is distinguishable from
an instance in which q police
officer observes signs Of tension

Letter Sorter
Placed in Use

A huge semi-automatic let
ter-sorting machine was ON
cially placed in operation here
today by Postmaster General
Arthur E. Summerfleld.
The intricate device weighs
10000 pounds and occupies q
floor space of 100 square feet.
Working on an experimental
basis at the main post ONCE
for the last five months. it can
sort $4,000 letters an hour
when fully manned by six
operators.
Machines of this type {.
will greatly assist the depart
ment in reaching its goal Of
next-day delivery of letters be-
tween any two cities in the
United States" Mr.. Summer
field said.
Developed by IT&T
The machine was developed
by the International Telephone
Telegraph Corp. in Belgium.
It's a cinch to operate.
The six "sorters" sit at key
boards resembling those Of add
ing machines. A mechanical
suction arm moves letters. one
by one. in front of each man.
The sorter simply punches
three keys, which automatically
dispatch the letter to any one
of 300 different destinations.
The only similar letter-sort-
ing Service-the "Transorma"
went into operation at Silver
Spring, Md, on Nay 2. 1857.
Its capacity is q little less:
$4,000 letters an hour.
Cost $4,000
Mr.. Summerfield said the
machine cost $4,000. He
called it a forrunner "of many
to come within a few years
for the major post Offices of
the nation"
Edmond H. Leavey. IT&T
president. officially turned the
machine over to the Post
Office Department. He said it
and other devices should "ul-
timately speed mail handling
by 80 to SO per cent"
One Alexandria firm already
is working on what may be
the ultimate device: a machine
that will read the destination
of letters and sort them auto
matically.
