Republican of New Hampshire,
called the Senate'S attention to
the situation yesterday and
inserted the article into the
Congressional Record.
When the FAA was estab-
lished last year, Mr.. Quesada
noted, it got the authority to
make and to enforce require
ments for pilots. Previously
the Civil Aeronautics Board
had made the rules, but the
Civil Aeronautics Administra-

New Vanguard HurIs
Satellite Into Orbit

Weather

A 2ila-pound. 20-inch earth
satellite was boosted into orbit
around the earth today in the
nose Of a slim Vanguard rocket.
The l1-ton vehicle lifted on
q Cape Canaveral (Fla.)
launching pad at 1885 am.
(ESTD. Second and third
stages fired on schedule, and
shortly before II am. a track
ing station at Deal, N. j., heard
signals indicating that the sat-
elite was on its way.
Official confirmation Of orbit
had to wait until lit pm,
however, when tracking sta
tions on the West Coast of the
United States picked up signals
at the end of the satellites
first trip around the earth.
Figures DELAYED
No precise figures on the
rockets minimum and MAXI
mum attitudes were immedi-
ately available. Such exact
information will not be forth
coming until several passes
around the earth have been
completed. Rough preliminary
estimates we're expected soon,
however.
If Instrumentation inside the
sphere works properly, the Van.
guard experiment will give
mankind new information
about worldwide weather. The
principal devices are two scan.
ming cells, sensitive to infra-
red radiation. They are de-
signed to assess the quantity Of
overcast above various parts
Of the earth.
Squirting a glowing trail Of
orange flame, the missile
climbed steadily for some 10
seconds after the launching be-
fore knitting through blanket
Of gray storm clouds.
The missiles behavior ap-
peared to be perfect during the
brief time that it was in sight.
the Associated Press reported.
It had begun to rain lightly
just before blast time, but this
did not affect the launching.
First Attempt of Year
AS far as is known, this was
1.-THE first orbiting attempt by
any nation this year.
Today's launching was the
eighth attempt to place a VAN
guard satellite in orbit. Only
one previous shot was success
full. On March II, 1858, a ga
pound test sphere about the size
of a grapefruit was shot into
an orbit 400 to $500 miles from
the earth.
The latest Vanguard rocket

was the fourth full-size sphere
to be sent up.
NASA in Charge
Although Vanguard began
under Navy auspices as the
United States initial effort to
be first into space, it was trans
ferred last October to the new
civilian National Aeronautics
and Space Administration.
NASA was in charge of today's
shot.

and should continue in his post
as long as he is able to func-
ton"
Senator Mansfield said there
is no such thing as an indis-
pensable> man, but there are
certain situations in which a
man is indispensable"
Senator Mansfield said Mr..
Dulles, more than any man,
understands the intricacies
and the ins-and-outs of the
Berlin and German situations" "
Secretary Dulles is now
needed more than ever before
in his capacity as Secretary of
State" Senator Mansfield con-
tinued.
"As long as he is able to
function. no consideration
should be given to the selec-
ton Of a successor"
Mr.. Dulles continues to keep
a hand in international affairs
from his hospital bed.
He received a half -hour
briefing on developments in in
ternational asairs from his
special assistant, Joseph N.
Greene, jr., yesterday after
noon.
Made at His Request
Mr.. Greene provided the re-
port at the Secretary's request.
1t covers such points as the de-
livery of the British, French.
West German and American
notes on Germany to the Soviet
Foreign ONCE yesterday; and
the meeting Of Assistant Secre-
tary of State Livingston Mer-
chant with NATO ambassadors
at the State Department.
How much Secretary Dulles
participates in policymaking
from his hospital bed will de-
pend on his reaction to radia-
ton therapy, scheduled to be-
gin later this week. This treat
ment to arrest the spread Of
cancer makes some patients i'll
but does not affect others, doc
tors say. If Mr.. Dulles is un-
affected, his influence on State
Department planning could re-
turn quickly, aides say.
At the Capitol yesterday
congressional leaders praised
Mr.. Dulles for the conduct OF
his Secretaryship and, in the
Senate, the membership stood
in silent prayer for his recovery
Shortly after the Senate met
at noon. Democratic Leader
johnson introduced this reso-
luton:
Resolved that the Senate

tary of State. the beloved John

President Eisenhower intends
to avail himself of the serv-
ices" of ailing Secretary of
State Dulles as long as Mr..
Dulles is able and willing to
carry on. House Republican
Leader Halleck said at the
White House today.
Mr.. Halleck told reporters
there was some discussion of
the condition of Mr.. Dulles by
a conference Of Republican
congressional leaders with the
President.
He said there can be no firm
determination" about prospects
of Mr.. Dulles recovery from
cancer for several days or weeks
yet.
Mr.. Dulles is recuperating at
Walter Reed Army Medical
Center from a hernia operation
last week that disclosed a re-
currence of the intestinal can
Ger for which he was operated
on two years ago. He is to re-
ceive radiation treatments later
this week.
Won't Talk of Future
Mr.. Halleck lodged questions
about whether he expected Mr..
Dulles to carry on indefinitely
as Secretary of State, or prob
ably act as adviser to the Pres
ident while someone else was
named to the cabinet position.
He told questioners Mr.. Eisen-
hover informed the Republican
congressional leaders he would
have a lot to say about the po-
sition of Mr.. Dulles at his news
conference tomorrow morning.
Mr.. Halleck, noting that Mr..
Dulles is on leave of absence,
said he would assume that
whatever position he might
hold, anyone would appreciate
his advice Oil difficult matters
around the world"
Keeping Mr.. Dulles on the
job would fit in with an appar-
entity developing move to shift
a Foreign Ministers meeting on
the German problem from
Paris to Washington.
Talk Now of April /
Earlier tentative plans had
been to hold the Paris session
next month. Now the talk is
about holding it here about
April /.
A major factor in such a
shift would be to permit Mr..
Dulles to take part, if he is
able, without a long journey.
Assistant Senate Democratic
Leader Mansfield, meanwhile,
told the Associated Press that
Mr.. Dulles is at the present
time "the indispensable man"

Rights Commission Did Not Attack Free Speech

This newspaper feels the protest by the chair
man of the Minnesota Governors Human Rights
commission against by a southern minister
of tax supported audtoriums not attack
free speech.
The protest simply pointed out that the Okla
homa minister in question made speciality of
attacking the us. Supreme Court, the United Ma
tons, the Urban League and other organizations
and posed the question whether the communities
involved were familiar with the program espoused
by the visitor from Oklahoma.
The telegram which sent by the commits
sion chairman and on which its chairman Earl
Larson, has slightly retreated could not by any
stretch Of imagination, has been suggested by
the Minneapolis TRIBUNE interfere with the
right of free speech The wire did not suggest that
the Oklahoma preacher not be allowed to speak
in either of the six communities to which it was
sent, but questioned the propriety of allowing
school facilities to be used by those who seeds
of hate and distrust against racial groups and such
established institutions the Supreme Court and

This is not unusual in that many groups have
