Hyde Declares
FEC Decisions
Not Influenced

Rosel H. Hyde told House in
iyeStigators today his decision:
as a member of the Federal
Communications Commission
were not influenced by broad
casters paying his hotel bills
at conventions.
II have no apology to make. >
he testified as the Legislative
Oversight Subcommittee check
ed politely into five trips he
made in recent years.
Mr. Hyde said he was within
his rights in collecting travel
and per diem expense money
from the Government while
letting the broadcasting indus
try pay for his hotel rooms. An
opinion by the controller gen.
eral backs him up.
Not a Money Grasper'
II am not a money grasper, .
Mr.. Hyde said. reporting that
his expenses often exceed sums
collected for official trips.
Mr.. Hyde. who has been an
FEC Commissioner since 1916
and a Federal employe since
1923, tried hard to mask his
evaporation at charges of mis-
conduct lodged against him by
Bernard Schwartz. the Subcom-
mittee's ousted counsel.
The new counsel. Robert w,
Lishman. handled interrogation
for the first time. BY contrast
with DR.. Schwartz's fiery tech
nique, Mr.. Lishman's approach
was low pressure and almost
apologize.
Mr.. Hyde defended his asso-
citation with broadcasters-Dr
Schwartz called it "fraterniza-
tion'-by contending a COM
missioner had to keep abreast
of developments in the indus
try he regulates. 1t is impos-
sible, he said, to do a good job
in isolation"
On the same grounds. he
said. it was perfectly proper for
him and other members of the
FEC to accept the use Of color
televiSion sets in their homes.
$22 Entertainment Pill
In going over Mr.. Hyde'S trips
one by one. Mr.. LiShman pro-
duced a $22 bill for entertain
ment paid by a California
broadcasters group.
Commissioner Hyde said all
he had was ginger ale.

Il voted against it," he said,
because they have peace and

be doing is stirring up old ami
moSitieS."
The decision was made at an
executive session which pre-
coded the resumption of the
Kohler hearing this morning
At the outset of today's pub
lie hearing Senator Goldwater
leveled a blast at Joseph L.
Rauh, jr.. attorney for JAW,

gated the lawyer for charging

No matter what snaps and
snarls may come his way in the
course Of q debate on the Sem
ate floor, Senator Kerr, Demo-
crat Of Oklahoma, goes back to
q hero's welcome in his ONCE.
Senator Kerr's huge. black
dog, Mister Ling, will yield to
no one in admiration Of his
master. When he hears the
Senator's footsteps coming
down the hall, he begins to
culver with delight. When the
Senator actually arrives, Mister
Ling filings his 70-pound satiny
weight all over him.
Mister Ling is a Rottweiler-
q German breed originally a
cattle dog and later developed
in Hungary as a sled dog. At
the Kerrs' home, both here and
in Oklahoma, he acts as a
watchdog; but at Room 226 of
the Senate Once Building, he
is a political animal, cordial to
all corners. He can even shake
hands.
Several Western Union mes
sengerS have been given pause
at the sight Of Mister Ling'S
massive presence in the door,
way. but his manner which is
gentle and mild. has treasured
them.
Mister Ling counts it a real
privilege to spend his days
among constituents and filing
cabinets. He puts in a three
or-four-day week, understands
perfectly that he is not allowed
on the Senate floor and settles
down to wait for the return of
his master.

but concede that there are more
immediate problems to solve
than who the first spaceman
will be.
Top Nervous System
What will he be like? Let Col
Stapp describe him:
First, the man chosen must
have a first-claSs nervous sys-
tenn and physique. He must
have the motivation-be deep
~ interested in space research,
His background and train
ing must be of a high level. We
have had lots of volunteers, but
if the only response we can get
from the man is duh, he's not
much good to us.
LAS for physical factors. some
minor conditions would not be
important. For instance. he
could have fallen arches and dc
a very good job because he
wouldn't have to walk. But his
heart. his lungs and his blood
vessels would have to be in top
condition"
The involuntary nervous sys-
tenn which controls reactions
to emotional stimuli would have
to be in prime shape. he says
and the ductlesS glands would
need to be in the best of condi-
ton so the body would be tough
enough to resist extremes OF
shock. hest and cold.
The man should also be free
Of any disease and, of course
have the right number of arms
legs and so forth"
The central nervous system
should be superior in intelli-
gence, stability and endurance,
He should be able to tolerate
isolation in solitary flight fol-
long periods. He must have
good insight and contact-with-
reality-he must be a down-to-
earth type not inclined to gaze
at the stars in rapture, but, in
stead. watch the dialS."
He must have tenacity OF
purpose. Admiral Richard Byrd
would have made an ideal sub
Ject. Recall, he stayed in a
cabin by himself for months
on the forbidding Ross Ice
Shelf in the Antarctic. He
stayed so he could make OBJ
servationS for science. He went
a long way to prove man could
stay rational in such condi-
tons"

finger, 30, is one of three mer
who justly can be called space
pioneers, even at this early
stage Of a new era.
The others are Col. John
Paul Stapp, AZ, and 1t. Col
David Simons, IS.
Two Physicians and a Pilot
Col. Stapp was dubbed "tht
fastest man on earth" in 1854
when he rode q rocket sled 63S
miles an hour to test whether
a human could stand the vio-
lent starts and stops that woulC
be necessary in space fight. He
now heads the Air Force mis-.
sile center's aero-medical lab.
oratory here. Next month he
will be transferred to Wright.
Patterson Air Force Base al
Dayton, Ohio, to head the
aero-med lab there.
1t. Col. SimonS, just pro-
NOTED from major, won fame
last summer when he rode q
balloon 100000 feet into the
air to study upper atmosphere
He is chief of the space biology
branch of the laboratory. Both
he and Col. Stapp are physi-
clans.
Capt. Kittinger, on the other
hand. is a pilot. But his inter-
est in flying goes lot further
than the wild blue yonder Of
few years ago.
Capt. Kittinger has fiowr
almost every type of plane, and
not long before Col. Simons
record-breaker. scared $4,000
feet in a balloon as part of the
man-high project to try to gel
some Of the preliminary bugs
out of space travel.
On the grounds Of age, Capt
Kittinger at the moment would
be most likely to be first into
space. But no one will put a
date on when 1.-The system
will be ready. When these space
shooters talk about the system,
they mean the day when all the
preparations are complete. High
altitude balloon tests are only
one, but highly important, pre-
lim.nary. Another is determin-
ing how man live and handle
himself outside the earth'S
gravity, where everything is
weightless.
All three of the pioneers agree
that space is some time away
All three would like to be the
first American to get there
